"I have become as the wind, though some may think it not calm in a gale, it remains so. Strength and force can be calm too, because they are done with loving certainty for good reason." Dustin said to them all as be was in a setting. A dinner setting.Alara was beside him now and they both laughed out with joy and excitement. Conor was there too."My sense of calm is anchored in my well earned self confidence. I have faced the trials and won thus far. I can take on the rest.""Were so good to have you back then," Alara smiled. Her voice remained as warm as early spring, as if her heart beat so steadily even though she took a different view from Mac. She simply said this was her way of doing things. I could see Ezra balk at first, so accustomed he was the to ways of Imelda and her fiery temper. Verity was different, she absorbed things and then responded more than reacted, dampened situations rather than adding to the flames. And so before I knew it everything was happy again, it was

Get lost
"You brat, what is a wretched man like you doing here?" Sandro said. Sandro was a man disturbing Dustin, not knowing who he was that he was wealthy.Dustin rolled his eyes. He had to careful around men like him. Men like Sandro were pigs and he had to be careful, else he would drag him into the mud."Sandro, what a surprise, what's a man like you doing in this really important place?" Dustin said with an amused tone.Sandro frowned. "Listen to me, you have no idea who you're messing with.""I'm not messing with anyone. Mind your business, and I'll mind mine." Dustin said, not so smiley now."Ha! Look at you trying to talk to me like a man when you've been stripped off that right a long time ago. You're here for another pathetic interview, aren't you?" Sandro said mocking him.Dustin couldn't help but remember all the time when he had been searching for a job and was always getting declined. So, this fool knew about it too. They mocked him and were sure he would never find a job.He re

Truth
A love that isn't considerate and kind is not love at all. It is merely an emotional attachment. Bonds can be made for selfish reasons or simply fail to mature to real love. For love to be real each partner puts the other first, each treasures the other above themselves. In love we don't hold one another back, we aspire one other to new heights while always being there to catch after falls, pick the other up, set them back on the road to success and happiness."Love hurts" is the biggest lie out there. Love heals, love makes people whole again and love fills them with the goodness they need to be as kind and loving as their Creator intended. What hurts is betrayal, thoughtlessness, uncaring attitudes and careless gossip. What hurts is people being unfriendly, not welcoming a new person to neighbourhood or making "exclusive" cliques that are defined by who is "not welcome." What hurts is bullying, harassment, selfishness and greed.Love on the other hand is the greatest gift mankind ev

Her family
Alara was all dressed that morning. It was going to be a big day so she needed to be her very best.She heaved in a deep sigh, then straightened her shoulders. She headed down the stairs to meet her weird little family. Her mother, Tania, was making breakfast so she leaned forward to kiss her on her cheeks. “Hey mom, good morning.” She gave her a warm smile. Her mother's face brightened. “Oh my darling, you look so beautiful.” She said. “Thanks mom, that means a lot. I had literally put in so much work–” as she was saying, a slender petite lady with pony tail blonde hair walked in.She eyed everyone and smirked. “Hey aunty, hey cuz, what's popping?” She said at last.Ella was Alara’s annoying cousin, Esther's daughter, who was Tania’s sister. Ever since they were living with Alara, they'd been making life unbearable, but her mother refused to accept that fact.“Hey hon, good morning.” Said Tania. “Where's your mother?” She asked.Ella shrugged. “Dunno. Oh these looks delicious.” Sh

Project blue teal
Dustin sat down and maintained his posture through out the next five minutes in silence. He knew that everyone were staring at him but he said nothing.Ella was already checking him out. “Well he looks handsome though, but is he really rich? Well we're about to find out.” She thought to herself. Then decided to speak, but Paul was the first to speak.“So, where did you get this suit you're putting on?” He asked. Dustin blinked. Why would he be asking that kind of question, but he shrugged it off and replied. “Royal home,”Paul did not hear him well. Royal home? It was one of the most expensive boutiques in the world! And he would be able to afford a suit there?? Impossible!He laughed out instead and was surprised to see that Ella was laughing too. “You? Royal home!?” He was wheezing now. Same with Ella.“Did my cousin tell you to say this! Ha!” Ella snorted.Alara and her mother were not laughing. But even Esther was chuckling now. She quickly straightened up her posture and cleared

Power feels good.
With the connections Dustin have earned, he quickly got to work. He didn't want to have to involve Alara so he decided not to. Besides, she was enjoying her one leave break.Dustin couldn't deny it but he missed not having her around sometime. He called Bobby and Vincent and they were already at the office.His secretary called, “hello sir, your guests have arrived. Should I send them in now?” she asked.Dustin nodded, forgetting for an instant that the secretary couldn't see him. He cleared his throat and said instead, “Yes. Send them in.” Soon, Vincent and Bobby were in his office.“I see you acknowledge our presences around you now and have stopped seeing us a weirdos.” Vincent said.“Oh please, don't get your hopes all high. I still see you guys as weirdos. Aren't you?” Dustin said and they all laughed.Finally, he went straight to business. “The blue team project, what do you know about it?”“It's hosted by Mr. Tomar, an Indian billionaire. He wants just one person on his list,

Connections
“Just as I have said, to prove you guys wrong, Alora will receive a call soon about the blue teal project.” Dustin started.They said nothing but he could see the disbelief in their eyes.“So, that's why I called Alara I wanted to come over. Also, I would like to have dinner here as well.” He said.Ella broke the silence. “What did you just say? How are we supposed to believe what you're saying now? You don't know what yours saying.” She said and Paul instantly backed her up.“Blue teal project is very reserved. There's no way someone like you could have access to earning the contract!” He said.“How exactly are you going to win it? Although nothing will change even if you don't win and all.” Esther said, ignoring her sister's warning look.“You'll see soon. Meanwhile, let's talk about something else. Paul, what are you working on at the moment? In the business lane.” Dustin asked.“Why is that any of your concern?” Paul snapped back.Alara stepped in. “He works for a rich man, he's a

her cries
Esther was so excited that she could take her sister's car for a ride. Even though Tania was always so stubborn, she still loved her baby sis. “Wow thank you so much, Tania.” She said, excitedly. “You are the best!”“Stop getting all excited, Esther. I'm only doing this because I need you to realize that no matter what, you are part of this family too.” Tania said.Ella was angry. “I can't believe that you get to enjoy a sweet ride alone, mom and not me.” she said pouting.“Oh don't be too angry. Maybe tomorrow it can be your turn.” Esther said, she ignored the side glance that her sister turned to her.“Just listen, I need you to be very careful with this car, okay? And don't fucking call me that something is up. I probably won't even pick up your call.” Tania said.“I am not a baby, Tania. Come on, stop embarrassing me.” Esther said.“I'm serious. Alora is busy and Paul is back with Mark. Maybe you can call your daughter though. She might come to your rescue.” Tania said.“There is

“Dustin! Wait up. Oh what am I doing? Can he even help me.” Esther thought to herself but she chased after him at last.Dustin was a bit startled to see she was the one calling him. He frowned but decided to be a bit formal. “Hello ma'am, how can I help you? It's quite surprising to see you here.”Esther began to say, not knowing what exactly to tell him or how to tell him. Lastly, she was able to give a fake narration of how things had happened. “Well, you see, your girlfriend’s mother was able to help me out today to make my day a lot more fun. So she helped me by giving me her car to go for a ride today, only with the condition that nothing must wrong.”Dustin rolled his eyes but not visible enough for her to see. He realized that now, something must have gone wrong, despite the innocent woman's warning. “But as you must have been guessing right now, something went wrong. I ran into some sons of a bitch and was even trying to help them settle their fight, but guess what? They tra

“What are you saying? That bastard man named Dustin? Oh you don't worry, I'm going to deal with him by myself. Who the hell does he think he is?” Mark yelled out angrily.“Mark I don't understand what is happening but I'm sorry. And I know we can settle our differences but I love this man and I'm not getting married to you.” Alara said.“Huh? What nonsense is this?” after everything that I've done for you? And you and your family still treat me like this?” Mark yelled out.“Treat you like what? We didn't do anything wrong, Mark. And as for my son, I have no idea he had wronged you. Or even my foolish sister, I didn't know she had wronged you and your men. And like Alara said, we can apologize and make up for that. But not by marriage.” Tania said.Mark roared out in laughter. “And I will deal with this man, don't worry too much about it. All I want you to know is that I will make you mine, and very soon, Alara. Because you should know that I can't
