A Scent Of Accusation

OLIVIA’S POV:THE NEXT DAY:It was about two hours before the proceeding, so I decided it would be nice to hang out with Selena as I had missed her though it had just been a few days since we had last seen each other. We took our seats in this cute outdoor restaurant called Lily’s and were sipping out of our fruit juice. It was a bright yet warm day, and just as the name of the restaurant, everywhere smelt like lilies and sweet.Selena was dressed in a white dress which stopped mid thigh with a chiseled neck and her wavy hair was packed up in a high ponytail. Her make up was light as usual, and she looked pretty and the fact that as she sat before me ranting, I couldn’t help but laugh so hard my tummy hurt. We talked about her day at the park, meeting Amber Quinn who had shot a text about wanting to meet later this evening or tomorrow evening as a double date and Selena had no idea on how to respond to her.“So after he says ‘what?’ again, I’m about to just send him out of the room or

The Battle Isn’t Over Yet

OLIVIA’S POV:“Alright…How about I help you look for and discuss with your assistant about adding two hours free time to your schedule even if it’s the evenings after office hours.” She suggested with her eyes hopefully and I stared at her with teary eyes.“Therapy helped me with my trust issues and I’m still working on it, so if I can work on my issues you can do the same.” She told me confidently and I blinked repeatedly, taking my hands away from her warm hold to grab a tissue to clean under my eyes.“How did we get so deep so fast?” We both chuckled and continued eating our food quietly.We were both in our thoughts when I decided to break it by asking, “Did he mention the lady’s name?” “I think it was Grace or something…” The irritation on her face was so amusing but the name did ring a bell.“Tonia was what everyone referred to her as back in high school…did you find her social media pages or anything?” I inquired, striking up unnecessary digging and Selena shook her head.“I h

Strange Encounters And Familiar Faces

SELENA’S POV:THAT EVENING:I mentally screamed a loud ‘Yayyy’, and my heart skipped a beat like the first time I met him because he looked at me with those same eyes from that day like he was in marvel but this time he wasn’t just in marvel but in love and it screamed through that look in his eyes.I grinned from ear to ear and instantly held his hand closer to me and I mentioned, “I love you so so much and you look so handsome.”“I love you too, but I’m going to make something clear right now and don’t you ever forget it.” He turned to the side, making sure I stared into his eyes by how he used his finger to raise my chin,“You’re the most important person in my life, you and Hailey and I love you two more than anything in the world. You two are my home and my world and why would I jeopardize what we have for any woman? I mean…who could even be better than you because I haven’t seen, have you?” He asked rhetorically, making me smile, tearing up.“You’re sophisticated, gorgeous, the

Toasts, Tension And A Shattered Night

3RD POV:THAT SAME EVENING:"Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed faculty members, and fellow alumni, I am honored to stand before you today as we celebrate the launch of this magnificent building. As an alumna of this prestigious institution, I am deeply proud to see how it has continued to thrive and grow. For decades, my family has had the privilege of being part of this institution's legacy, and I hope that one day, my own child will follow in our footsteps, not just out of tradition, but because of the exceptional education and opportunities that this institution provides.” Amber began, speaking into the microphone with confidence and prestige radiating off of her.“This college has always been a beacon of excellence, offering a world-class education in science, arts, and beyond. It is my family's wish that this new building, equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, will serve as a catalyst for students to reach their full potential. We are proud to have made a donation to the Baseba

A Friendship Tested

3RD POV:MEANWHILE…Back in Resiph, Cherry and Carmeron as well as Gabby and Julian had gone out for some drinks as well as dinner at some Lorean restaurant, they had noodles, steak, rice, variety as well as some traditional beer they had never seen before nor had before. So they all took a glass and they all winced together in unison.“That’s strong as well. Cherry just might have been drunk from just that shot.” Julian teased and Cherry shot him the middle finger.“As a matter of fact, why aren’t people here?” Julian asked, looking around wondering why the place was so empty. It was in the middle of the city and Gabby who had been invited to try it out, about being offered over fifteen million and free food, she thought it would be fun to go with her family and to take a picture after.“Aside from the fact that it’s rented out, the steak alone as well as the other meals is overpriced to the average person and a wealthy man who has more important things to pay for. I mean it's the be

A Friendship Tested (2)

SELENA’S POV:I picked up my phone noticing that about ten minutes ago, Gabby had sent me a picture of the four of them at a restaurant, adding ‘I wish you two were here.” “They were just with Gabby and Julian. I’m going to call and ask if they are with them.” I said all at once and he nodded slowly, while Henry picked up his phone talking to someone on the other line.He paced back and forth and I sat at the edge of the chair, calling both Julian and Gabby back and forth and they both didn’t pick until I called Gabby once more.“Hey Selena!” She excitedly called out and I let out a breath, in relief as I was starting to fear the worse.“Gabby! Where are you? Are you with Cherry and Carm?” I asked, overhearing Henry behind already booking a flight to Resiph tonight.“Girl, we had some drinks, this Lorean alcohol and I can’t lie,….we were pretty wasted.” She laughed and I was about to speak, she continued talking, ”Carm and Cherry got carried into their cars because Carm went out shou

The Ones We Couldn't Save

SELENA’S POV:A FEW DAYS LATER:“I totally apologize for calling and instantly giving you instructions, but I thought you need to see it.” After watching the news and hanging up the call, the same number called again. I sucked my teeth and instantly snapped shouting, “What the hell do you want?” And it was accompanied by a low voice introducing himself as Joey and an apology from him. I let out a breath and held my forehead, taking a seat, “Hello Joey.” I simply said still trying to calm myself down, by doing a breathing exercise.“You seem tense, and I’m certain it’s not because of this news. Or am I wrong? Are you okay?” He asked softly and his voice was so low and full of care, it felt like he was here and I could just talk to him.“I’m not but I am certain everything will be fine.” I shared, reassuring not him but myself and I could hear him hum. “I’m sure it will be.” He reaffirmed and I nodded about to bid him farewell.However just as I was just about to, he said, “Will you

Family First, Always

SELENA’S POV:“I tried, I made efforts, I called everyday but our meetings at the park ended, his calls stopped and on the night he died, when he was shot by the police officers when he had kidnapped another girl, I had a dream where he screamed my name and just kept crying and apologizing. And the next morning, I heard it on the news, and his father literally committed suicide after his burial, it was a lot.” My heart broke for her and I went ahead to hug her which made her chuckle.“I’m alright now, I just shared that to tell you I always know when something bad has happened to anyone close to me, I’m just going to be aware of the other world.” She shared and for some reason I felt really calm after that yet disturbed by the little boys who at such a young age are already involved with such crimes and all those girls and the trauma they lived through.They didn’t deserve that neither did boys like Tim who through the influence of their boss lost their lives.I stretched my leg and f

Desperation Wears Diamonds

3RD POV:“So I’d appreciate a nice new dress and those bags you get your wife in pink preferably. Have an amazing afternoon, I’m clocking out and the other maids are all coming in soon.” David scoffed as she walked off changing her walking step to only entice him further and he was surprised but he loved a good challenge and Unnie was a real beautiful girl.Soon after she walked out the doors, Sandra stepped in and David’s mood grew sour. He rose to his feet excited to see his son, as he had not seen him in the past two days. “My favorite child.” He announced and grabbed his son who unlike other times he picked up and threw him in the hair and he would laugh, this time as soon as he touched his son, he cried loudly screaming as well.“Stop crying, little man. What’s going on?” David instantly inquired with concern and Sandra shrugged, taking him away from him.“I don’t know…maybe he’s growing to hate you.” She pointed out, and David was taken aback, assuming he hadn’t heard Sandra cl

Home in Her Arms

3RD POV:Sandra’s eyes glinted with a mixture of calculation and frustration. "I think the first thing we need to do is make sure we don’t make the same mistakes again," she said. "We need to think ahead, not just react. The press, the judges—everything is about perception. If we can control that, maybe we stand a chance."David nodded slowly, his mind working in overdrive. "And the money?" he asked, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper as he leaned closer to Sandra, eyes scanning the room as if waiting for someone to overhear them. "We can’t afford to leave it all up to chance. The assets, the properties, the companies—all of it needs to be moved, hidden. If the court doesn’t rule in our favor, everything we've built is gone."Sandra’s lips curled into a tight smile, her thoughts mirroring his. "I’ve already set some things in motion. We’ll move the most valuable assets into accounts overseas. That way, even if they try to seize everything, it won’t be enough." Her voice wa
