"Dustin what is it?" Alex answers his call with a raspy voice. "Hey man, calm down. What's with the attitude? What happened?" He asks. "Okay, I'm sorry. I'm just having a shitty day as if is." "I was meaning to ask you where you ran off to. I mean, we turned around and you were no where to be found. After you left the class, we figured that maybe you just wanted to get some fresh air or you wanted to use the restroom. What happened along the way because we couldn't find you anymore?" "I had some emergencies to take care of." He gave them a short response, not willing to disclose everything just yet. "Oh come on now Alex. This is exactly what the problem is!" Dustin exclaimed "What are you talking about?" He asked. "How can you say that to me? I am your friend and of late, it feels like I don't even know you. I mean what exactly is going on? What sort of emergency are you referring to?""I think you need to calm down. Honestly, it's nothing serious. It's just that I have a whole
"I don't need a personal bodyguard Damien," Alex argued. He knew what having a personal bodyguard entails. He would be forced to constantly work around with the guy and the was no way he was going to do that without people suspecting him for being more than just a lottery ticket winner."How can you can say that? Do you not understand the things happening in your life. You are being attacked from all angles. I will not just sit back and do nothing when I know for a fact that this is not normal. It's not normal Alex. We need to ensure that you are properly armed before something that I cannot comprehend happens to you. Your grandfather will be so upset with me if anything should happen to you." "Damien, I don't care. We are not getting a personal bodyguard for me and that is final." He said and ended the call. "We are here sir," his driver said as he pulled up into the driveway of a club that Alex could not recongize. he was not the type that loved going out but still, he knew some o
"Are you actually talking to me in that manner?" The girl asks angrily."Yes I am. Is there a problem? Is there something you actually wanted to tell me?" He asks "Oh yes there is," the girl screamed and Alex was happy that he was getting the girl all worked up. "You are a nonsense man. How dare you speak to a lady like that?" "Oh now now dear. I am only saying what my eyes can see and I don't think you are a lady. As a matter of fact, I think that you are so far away from being a lady." She said finally. "This is madness. This is absolute madness. I will ensure that you are punsihed for this. For talking to me in this manner, I will ensure that you pay greatly for it. You are going to regret everything you have said to me today, mark my words." She said. "Oh I don't think I am going to regret anything at all." He told her as he begun sipping on his drink. The girl laughed suddenly, and it was a laughter filled with pains. "You obviously have no idea who I am. Listen to me, I wi
"Are you daft? Why are you still standing there like that? I said you should get me your manager!" The man yelled. Since you have the audacity to actually talk to me in this manner and since you are refusing to do your job, then I have no other option but to ensure that you get fired. You are really going to pay for this." The man said, while crossing his legs. Alex could feel Aurora shaking beside him. He did not know why she was though. From where he was standing, he could not see anything wrong in what she did. But with the way she was shaking, he could not help but wonder if she really got a job as a stripper or a hooker and just decided that she was not going to do that anymore. "Girl are you dumb?!" The guy yelled and Aurora jumped in his skin. "I said you should get me your manager." "Don't shout at her like that. It's not right to shout at a lady that way." "Young man, if I were you, I would really mind my business. Now little girl, go and get what I asked for." He asked a
"Sir, I did not know that you are here." The manager said and almost fell on his knees. "Of course you didn't. So Mr. Williams, I had no idea that this is what you actually do. So you hire someone and give the person one job description, but when a customer offers to pay you peanuts you automatically force your staff to do their bidding, are you really that cheap young man?" Alex asked, astonished. "No sir. I am not," the manager begun to tremble. "Sir, please allow me to explain myself. I did not actually accept for this to happen like that. Sir, what happened is that actually I just wanted to give her a different option." "Oh don't lie to me Mr. Williams. That is one thing that I hate more than anything else. You were not giving her an option, you wanted to enforce your wish on her because of money that I am very much sure you would not have given to her." "No, I did not want to do that. I would never do that." He tried to defend himself. "And yet you are still lying! Okay, the
"Alex?" Aurora called out when she did not hear a single response from him. All she saw was that his eyes were fixed on her and yet he did not say anything about what happened. "Are you sure this is what you want? Because if you are worried about where you can work after this, trust me I can get you a very good place to work. Where I will take you to is a place that you will be valued and no one, absolutely no one will try to make you suffer. So are you sure this is what you want?" "Yes this is what I want. Of what good will it be if you close down this place and I get to have my freedom but then my fellow colleagues can't afford to survive because they don't have a workplace. I will never feel okay, I will not be happy. So yes, this is what I want." Alex looked at her again and wondered how one person could be so kind and caring. She did not want to believe it but she was not like other girls he had met and he found himself drawn to her in ways he never knew existed. "Alright the
What did you just say to me?" Aurora asked. She could take anything else but she would not take a strange Barbie looking girl to insult her because of man that she did not even want. "I said that you are nothing but an idiot and a stupid girl." The girl, Bella repeated her words again and seeing the look in Aurora's eyes, Alex held her back."Oh no no no," he said dragging her back to his side. "She is not worth your stress, trust me." "Oh will you get your hands off her?" She screamed again but Alex kept his cool and watched her. "Are you not even ashamed of yourself? You came here to meet one girl and you have the mind to leave with another? Have you no respect for your life at all?" "Well, the last time I remember, you said that you don't associate with people like me because I am broke and wretched, so now help me understand something, why do you want to associate with someone that is broke and wretched?" He asked. "I never said that you are wretched. and my darling," she said
"Have you all gone mad?" Alex said angrily as soon as Aurora left. He could feel his blood boiling and he began to regret not telling Bella to leave as soon as she came with her drama. "Oh please, don't talk to us like that. You should be ashamed of yourself that this is what you do to actually feel better about yourself. You should be ashamed that this is what you do to feed yourself. You are pathetic. You are so pathetic and I can't believe that you are still standing in front of us right now." "This is madness. Look here, I am not the mood for all of these trash you are saying to me." Alex tried to talk but Jo wouldn't let him get a word in. "You think I am talking trash? Well that is exactly what you are, trash. You are nothing else but trash that I will soon be getting rid of. Trust me when I tell you this, I will ensure that I ruin you in this life." Jo ranted as Bella tried to stop her by dragging her back."For fuck's sake Bella, stop what you are doing. Let me be very hone
