EXCERPT. "What makes you think, I need to be repaid?" He asked and I went quiet wondering if I was insane for stopping him. "Well, you saved me," I told him and he stared deeply at me.

View MoreACAPELLA'S POV."Austin, please don't" I pleaded as I struggled frantically against him. I was back in New York, in Austin's apartment, struggling against him. He refused to heed my pleas and kept on trying to undress me when I struggled to release one of my hands from his hold and punched him. " Fuck, This bitch has broken my nose" I heard a guy groan in pain and snapped my eyes open in shock.' This was not how Austin sounded' I thought and suddenly, flashbacks from a few hours ago hit me, and I realized, I was not in New York City nor Austin's mansion. I sighed in relief, before trying to scan my surroundings well. I realized, I was in a dark alley, right on the ground, and my top was torn by the side. I gasped realizing, I was not dreaming nor hallucinating about an intruder trying to pull my clothes off me. I looked to my front and saw two guys, which shockingly, I recognized to be the two guys from the cafe earlier.' You' I pointed out to the red-haired guy and h
ACAPELLA'S POV. I could hear screams as I and Isabella walk into the concert. I was surprised by the multitudes standing and wondered how we were ever going to see the singer if the crowds were so much, to the extent of blocking our views." What is the essence of coming, if we are not going to see the so-called singer?" I turned to ask Isabella, who was grinning happily. Excitement was boldly written on her expression." Oh!" She whined. " You should know me by now" She added and I threw her a confused look, wondering what she meant this time. But before I could ask, she dragged me by my arm, to the front, pushing away some ladies." What are you doing Isabella?" I gasped, shocked at my friend's crazy behavior. Some ladies tumbled on their heels, and almost fell flat to their faces due to how Isabella was pushing." Watch it bitch" Some of the ladies yelled, and I turned around slowly to see them, glaring at us with their eyes full of hatred. My crazy friend, on
OMNISCIENT'S POV. In an underground Club, music can be heard blaring from the speakers and dancers can be seen whinnying themselves on the pole giving the horny men in the club a show with their seductive dancing and explosive lingeries. Cigarette smoke can be sighted here and there. Some men by the corner can be seen sniffing a whitish substance from the paper passed to them. Moans can be heard from another corner as some men do pleasurable things to the waitresses going around and serving them drinks. Meanwhile, In a concealed office, behind a huge desk sat a masked guy. A different type of mask this time, but with the Skull diagram drawn on it. A lit cigarette was in his mouth and smoke can be seen coming out from his nostril and mouth. He was finally relaxed in his swivel chair facing the wall and backing his desk. He was fully dressed in his signature Color." Black".

ACAPELLA'S POV. Everyone went back to what they were doing previously after the blonde-haired guy and his minion left. I and Isabella also thanked everyone for their help earlier." You two, be careful," Jack said addressing I and Isabella." Especially you" He added while pointing at me and I nodded." He seems intent on his threat, so you guys better watch your backs," Jack told us." Do not worry Jack" Isabella said. "As I told him earlier, he can't do shit" She assured." He is just rubbing off with the mouth" She added and I giggled." You cannot say so" Jack nudged her. " A man can do anything when he is railed" He reminded us." And with the way, I was looking at him earlier, the guy was beyond pissed" Jack added." You do not think he will carry out his threat, do you?" I asked Jack and he shrugged." I cannot say for sure" He answered me." I do not think he will, Cops are always patrolling 24 hours straight," Isabella said." Which is why I told her, I cannot say for
ACAPELLA'S POV. ITALY.FEW MONTHS AFTER. "Acapella, Acapella". Evelyn Johnson, the manager of this cafe, A beautiful warm woman in her early forties called out to me." Yes, Mrs Johnson" I answered leaving what I was doing and rushing up to her to answer her calls." Please, can you take the orders from those two young men over there?" She pleaded, pointing with her fingers to two unfamiliar faces a few feet from us, sitting by the corner of the window and kinda hidden from clear sight. " Of course, Mrs Johnson" I answered flashing her a bright smile." Thank you so much" She appreciated. " You are such a darling" She added with a smile and I nodded before turning to leave when she suddenly held me by one of my arms. I turned to look at her in alarm." Is anything the problem?" I found myself asking." No dear" She replied. " I just want to ask you how many times I have told you to call me just Evelyn?" She commented and I gave a shy giggle." But you are way older than me" I
OMINISCIENT'S POV. In a dimly lit underground basement, Three guys can be seen under the light lamp playing games of snooker with each of them having a lit cigarette in their mouth. " Fuck you Romano" The huge guy amongst them cursed. " I was supposed to have that," He said with a twisted expression of envy as he watched Romano, the youngest of them pack up all the bundles of money laid on the table with a happy grin on his face. " Do not be greedy Casio" The thin tall guy amongst them warned." You have been stacking us and winning for days now" He reminded him and Casio turned to glare at him with fury. " Seems like today is his day and luck has hit him, let him enjoy it," Jack, the talk, thin one who was the only American amongst them said. " Piss off white" Casio cursed in Italian hitching for a fight but Jack being the gentle, calm one who despises trouble just shrugged ignoring Casio's insulting words. " Easy there you two," Romano said trying to calm Casio down.
ACAPELLA'S POV. I slowly opened the seal on the envelope and poured the contents onto my lap curiously. I wanted to see what on earth was making the envelope so bulky. What I saw next made me gasp in astonishment. Apart from the letter which spilled onto my lap, bundles of money also followed. I quickly placed my right palm over my mouth to prevent me from screaming. I then slowly picked up the bundles of money lying on my lap one by one with trembling hands completely ignoring the letter or should I say forgetting about it. ' Who is kind enough to send me such a huge amount of money?' I wondered in amusement for I had no friends nor families. Just haters. " Why don't you go through the letter" My subconscious suggested. " Perhaps you might find some clues" She encouraged and I nodded. I slowly took the letter from my lap and opened it. I took a deep breath before I started reading the contents aloud. " Hey Acapella" The writer greeted. " I know despite trying to co
ACAPELLA'S POV. I hastily took the white envelope which surprisingly felt heavy and bulky making me wonder what was in it.' Could a letter be as heavy as this?' I wondered. I turned it around to find out who it was addressed to and found my name. " To Dear Acapella" was written on it. I was amused for I had no friends who might want to write to me. ' Just haters' I thought and shivered as goosebumps covered my entire body. " Could they perhaps be the one?" I muttered in fear as I turned the letter around again to find out whether the name of the address was on it.' Could this probably be a letter of curse?' I wondered." Tch" My subconscious scoffed. " How can your haters address you as Dear Acapella?" She asked and I felt she was right.' They could not be the one' I thought and started wondering who could have been the sender for it had no name of the person. ' Should I perhaps ask one of the nurses who might have delivered this?' I wondered." I doubt you should"
ACAPELLA'S POV. " What is going on?" I wondered in absolute shock. This was not the Doctor Robert I know. This man looks older and his face has wrinkles and he has half bald hair with the sides covered in grey hairs. ' Maybe the nurse made a mistake and went to get you another Doctor Robert?' My subconscious suggested and I nodded agreeing to her words. ' Maybe!' " Excuse me young lady" The old man called and I raised my head to look at him. " Yes?" I answered. " Is everything alright?" He asked and I nodded. " Of course, why do you ask?" I threw back a question at him. " Well, I read your file before coming here since I am actually in charge of you but I had an accident. A minor one actually and another doctor was assigned to you" He began explaining and I started to feel somehow confused like something was not right. " He was originally the doctor in charge of me?" I wondered. " Then who was the doctor taking care of me before his arrival?" I wondered. " Oh, D
"I am so proud of you Acapella,” My mum said while rubbing my hair softly. I was so happy with the attention I was receiving right now.
