They each gathered to their hotels. Dustin got a total of five hotels for them all, because he planed not to endanger anyone else life. “We'll leave as soon as we get a call from back home. We have to leave for the church soon. So for now, get yourselves prepared and just relax.” Dustin said to them all and they nodded.Laura made her way over to him. Somehow, Alara had been keeping her distance because she didn't to get in between Dustin and Laura. Their eyes locked for a while, and Dustin's heart skipped a bit. Finally, Laura was standing before him and she placed her hand on his chest and turned his face to look at her, averting the gaze between him and Alara. “Hey, I need to speak with you. Honestly,” Laura went on, not even caring that he had been meaning to have a moment alone or at least with Alara.“What's that?” Dustin said. Finally his attention was back to Laura. “Honestly, why can't we take the same room? I mean I know you have money and all, but I was just thinking tha

Erika banks had bad enough of all the insults. She was tired of it already. Now her phone was ringing again with her aunty calling her.“Why is she calling now? As if I don't know.” she sighed. “well let's just pick it up and see then,” she muttered to herself.Her day had gotten a lot better when she had asked that the award night should get delayed. Heck she was in no position to even talk or smile at anyone. And then there was the issue of her friend, Miranda. She was not in the mood to put up with her drama.“Hello aunty,” she picked up at last. “So what's up. Why have you called?” she asked.“Well, is it true? That you let some girl go around and take away your position with Tim household? How can you let that happen? I always knew you were a softie but I just never knew it was to this extent!” the lady added almost like a bark to the end that made Erika flinch.“Hey sister, I understand how worried you are for me. But I promise you that that everything will be settled just fine.

People didn't use any invitation card. They just mentioned who they were with or who they were going to meet. And the guards would let them.in at once.He too walked forward and met with them. “Hello sir, who are you going in to meet?” he was asked by one of the men there.“Erika banks.” He said and the man looked stunned. He had to take a moment to look at Dustin again. He could see that Dustin was well dressed and all, but still, what if he was just lying.“Can you verify this?” he asked not wanting to sound rude although his voice couldn't contain the rudeness that came with it.“Aren't you the one who is going to confirm this?” Dustin asked and frowned at the man. “Why must you all go around judging people every every chance you get ? You have the list with you can't you just verify from your own end like you have been doing before?”The man laughed out loud. He had met people like Dustin, always going all around pretending to be rich and all. “Well unfortunately, I would not like

Dustin remembered his past. It was about five years ago now and he still remembered like it was only yesterday. He was still going by the band Ryan then. He was tired. He'd been working nonstop all day. His stomach grumbled from hunger, since he hadn't even eaten all day!If he took out of his pay for the day, he would be about 10$ short, and he needed to save money to get Laura, his girlfriend a gift. She'd been asking for a necklace since forever, and he wasn't about to use his poverty as an excuse for him not to be able to take care of his lover."Here you go!" A fat man who was studying his cup of wine at the moment yelled out as he threw an envelope down on the floor. Ryan was a bit ashamed his boss had embarrassed him in the presence of everyone like that, but he said nothing and picked up the envelope. Quickly, he tore it open to check how much his boss had paid him this time.He had three jobs, but at the moment, he was doing his second job of the day at a busy restaurant.

Laura fumbles the little white pill, her mind already clamouring for the pain relief to come. It isn't that her suffering is acute, more that it never leaves her unless she sleeps. Those pills are little trap doors into moments of bliss, a few hours of tranquility. Once she is at peace she takes her tea, her afternoon cake - her pleasures without them being tainted by pain. She needed to stop thinking about the night before.A beautiful woman has a beautiful soul. However she appears in her youth, it is the soul that will show in her every feature as she ages. The sweet hearted are all the beauty in this world, they are the sunshine, the rain and the good earth."It's that you care so very much about others that makes you so beautiful to me. That you see my beauty, that you show how special I am to you, that's what's got me for life. You aren't just beautiful, you make the space around you beautiful too, you affect others and bring their beauty out of them. And you do it with ease. It
