Greg Chase had started to work with Don Black for a while and he was slowly building into the looks of a notorious gangsta, even though he wasn't.

Hanging around Don Black, and being exposed to the sort of money that he was currently being exposed to, made Greg's looks change swiftly.

However, not for one day had he forgotten about Lucy.

Greg had moved out of his rickety house. Thanks to the chunk of money he started to make every week as a result of him agreeing to pair up with Don Black.

He now lived in a nice bungalow on the average side of town and even had a car now. Although, his car was not a luxurious one like Lucy's own.

For some reason, on this fateful night, he could not get his mind off Lucy.

He understood that she might have been in a tight corner, and must have been dazed and ashamed concerning the fake video of both of them that went viral, but what he didn't understand was why she remained so distant even after the incident had long passed.

    Greg was taken aback at first because he knew that it was not Lucy that had just spoken to him. Who could it be then? He didn't say anything for a while, as his brain searched and scanned the voices in his head, trying to figure out who the voice he just heard belonged to, but he could not think of anyone.The voice sounded familiar, yet it was also not familiar.The voice sounded like Lucy's, yet it was not Lucy's.So who was that?Greg was about to hang up, thinking that it was an overzealous friend of Lucy that was trying to be funny when he suddenly remembered something. Lucy often spoke of her mother. He was even supposed to meet Lucy's mother before the scandal happened at scattered the plans Lucy had for him. Since the scandal period, this was the first time someone, even if it was not Lucy, had taken his call. This was months after the scandal. Greg immediately flashed a smile across his face where he was. ''Good day ma'am,'' he said to Margaret Ban with a gentle voice.

    Lucy almost laughed at what Greg said, but she held back because she didn't want Greg to feel so comfortable around her just yet after a couple of months had passed. His quick influence on her took her by surprise. She didn't know how fast Greg had crawled into her subconscious until after the accident. She had met Greg after college and felt so nostalgic that she got attached to him very quickly. She restrained herself from laughing when Greg accused her mother of laying incantations on him. Besides, Greg was sounding so different. She had not had the chance to ask him about that yet because of the way her mother was screaming.''Meanwhile...'' Lucy said and relaxed on the couch that she was sitting on. Greg smiled where he was. He knew she had noticed that his voice sounded more authoritative. He could hear himself loud and clear. Besides, a lot of people had mentioned it to him, including Don Black his dear friend. ''Yes?'' Greg said back to Lucy.''Meanwhile what...?'' he as

    Lucy heaved a tired sigh."Greg, just wait until I am better. I'll be back on my feet in a bit, and I will come to your house. The first place I will visit as soon as I am better is your house," Lucy said to Greg.Greg chuckled and shook his head.Should he tell Lucy that he no longer lived in that house, or should he allow her to keep living in the past?"I insist," Greg said with a firm tone that made it sound obvious to Lucy that he was not going to go back on his words."But my mom..." Lucy was arguing when Greg reprimanded her.'You are not a kid, Lucy. Where are you? I am on my way there already," Greg said.Lucy was taken aback by Greg's behavior and tone of voice.The Greg that she cut off from a few months ago was nearly timid.One needed to have pushed Greg beyond his limits before an angry or aggressive reaction would come out of him.In fact, was this not the same Greg that used to insist on not being in public places because of reasons that Lucy had not yet figured out?

  • Greg's Dreaded Return   Who Is At The Door?

    Charles Ban had watched his sister and his niece argue about the person that his niece was speaking to on phone. He was confused, obviously, but he didn't say anything and listened to them closely as they argued. The least he could do for himself was to try and figure out what the issue was, and from what he was able to piece together, this person was the cause of Lucy's accident.And what was this he heard about a video? What video?After Lucy hung up the phone call she had with Greg, she went back to her room, but Margaret Ban was waiting for her there. Of course, she was not going to let it slide. The fact that Lucy was back talking to that poor creature from jail that had charmed her and nearly killed her because he was near her made Margaret Ban stark raving mad. ''Lu! Were you on the phone with that thing for this long? Did you spend more than ten minutes discussing this with him? What about?'' Margaret Ban asked, her face disgruntled. She was not happy about what Lucy was do

    She looked at her mother's back as she walked to the door, grumbling about the fact that the housekeeper had not thought to be at the door until now. ''I wonder what I pay him for. He just sits around the house, sleeping, eating, admiring himself in the mirror every now and then, and does absolutely nothing to show that he is here to work,'' Margaret Ban was saying as she walked towards the door. She passed by the housekeeper's room, which was close to the front door, and peeped in to find out what he was doing. She shook her head when she heard the sound of the shower rushing in his bathroom. He was taking a bath, that was why he could not attend to the door. ''Ridiculous!'' Margaret Ban muttered and continued to walk towards the door. While she walked to the door, she wondered why whoever was out there had not knocked again. It had taken a while since the person first knocked, and no one had answered the door yet, shouldn't the person knock again? Margaret Ban wondered at th

    ''Were you expecting me not to double up when I found out that Lucy, the little Lucy of back then at college had become incredibly wealthier than me?'' Greg asked.Lucy shook her head.''How vain can you be? That's not what our friendship is about,'' she said and leaned her back on the wall.She was sitting on the only chair that was on the balcony.Of course, Greg left the seat vacant for her to use. ''But Lucy, I'm a man. Besides, you stopped wanting to hear from me. You stopped taking my calls. You of all people. Remember I used to be the one running away from your calls because you were pressing me with your money and connections...'' Greg said and paused to have a laugh. ''Ah! Come on, don't be like that,'' Lucy said and joined Greg in laughing. Meanwhile, on the other side of the door, Margaret Ban stood, trying to hear what Lucy was talking about with this man.Who was the man by the way? And since when did Lucy start hanging out with the likes of her somewhat vicious uncle?

  • Greg's Dreaded Return   Mr. Ban Is Coming

    Mr. Ban had stayed away from Lucy for a long time because he couldn't bear the fact that she was so angry at him to the point of not wanting to see him. He knew that as long as she was in that state of injury, she would be repulsed to see him so he stayed away from her totally. But, atbthe moment, he felt that he had stayed away too long.Because of his staying away, he had not visited his sister, and that was very unlike him because, no week passed without Mr. Ban going to Margaret Ban's house. He would usually stop by at Don Black's house first fro a chat, and then walk twelve blocks to Margaret Ban's house, but he had completely stayed away from their neighborhood for a long time. Now, he thought that he should drive over there as he didn't have too much to do for the next six hours.''Barter!'' Mr. Ban called as he stepped out of his office. Barter appeared before his boss and waited for the instruction that would follow. ''We are going to Margaret's,'' Mr. Ban said as he st

    ''Hey, Uncle Damien is in the neighborhood,'' Lucy announced to the inhabitants of the house after Greg told her that Mr. Ban had stopped at a house close by and entered it after staring at his car for a long time. ''What?'' Charles barked and turned around to look at Lucy. Margaret Ban's eyes shone as well. Margaret and Charles Ban started at themselves knowingly. Suddenly, as if Charles remembered something, he sprung up on his feet. ''Is your friend still there?'' Charles asked Lucy. ''Yes. Why? He is about to leave anyway,'' Lucy said as she glanced at Greg shortly. She had a confused look on her face as she looked at her young uncle, wondering what he wanted to do with her friend. Greg turned on the car, and Charles heard it and hurried outside, but not without poking his head out to confirm that Mr. Ban, his elder brother was not around and showing up to catch him. The next thing that happened shocked Lucy. Charles Ban ran out of the house and entered Greg's car a

    Greg Chase didn't know if he should laugh or cry. He stared at The Man until he was sure that The Man was serious about what he said, then he heaved a tired sigh. ''You cannot afford to do this to me. I mean...you sparingly ruined my life,'' Greg Chase complained, his eyes on The Man the entire time. ''You are the watcher, Mr. Chase. You shame me. The watcher ought to be more powerful than you are, but you are too full of yourself, so you cannot reach your full potential,'' The Man told Greg Chase. ''How powerful can I get?'' Greg Chase asked. ''Did you hear about the natural disaster that happened in the city Aklans weeks ago?'' The Man asked Greg Chase. Greg Chase nodded.''Yes, that was caused by a watcher like you. He was upset about something, and his intense anger caused a stir and an earthquake occurred. Though the government officials claim it to be solely a natural occurrence, it is a lie, and they know it...'' The Man told Greg Chase. Greg Chase was not sure he heard

    Greg Chase almost dropped dead when he heard everything. ''If you have anything to tell me, or there is an emergency, I bet you now know how to summon me. It took you two years to learn how to summon me, Greg Chase. Now, you know what pride can do to you. It can ruin you,'' The Man said as he gradually disappeared into space. Greg Chase stared in arrant shock.All this...it had to be a joke.''Boss...at least...you aware that you returned my colleagues back to our company, right?'' Scissors asked Greg Chase after The Man left. Greg Chase looked at Scissors casually and nodded. ''I have told you not to call me boss anymore,'' Greg Chase said.Scissors smiled. ''The boss is really back to himself. Boss, you have not told me that in the past two years, and I have only called you boss throughout,'' Scissors said, smiling. Greg Chase wished it could stop.Someone needed to come and tell him that all this was a dream.Ge desperately needed to hear that he had been pranked heavily. So

    ''Master!'' Greg Chase muttered. Then he blinked. The next time that Greg Chase opened his eyes, he was in his living room on earth.He was leisurely watching TV and Scissors walked by casually. Greg Chase looked at Scissors, expecting him to freak out and ask how and where he had been but Scissors acted like every other day. As if nothing happened. Or?Had he been in a trance?''Scissors, what day is it today?''Wednesday,'' Scissors said. ''Where have you been in the last twenty-four hours?'' Greg Chase asked, looking at Scissors, squinting in confusion. It was as if his brain had been formatted. Scissors turned to look at him funny.''Keeping tabs on me now, huh, boss!'' he said, taking orange juice from the fridge and heading back inside the house, to his room. Greg Chase's eyes sparkled in confusion. ''I'm not keeping tabs on you. Fuck you,'' he said under his breath.''I heard you!'' Scissors yelled from afar. Greg Chase nodded with satisfaction. The first thing that

    Call Me Master!

    ''Boss?'' Scissors called, wondering why Greg Chase was looking at him like that. ''What is growing on your head?'' Greg Chase asked Scissors. Scissors frowned.Was it because he had indicated that something was funny about Greg Chase, that Greg Chase decided to switch up on him?''Boss, are you kidding?'' Scissors asked, flashing a weak smile.Greg Chase shook his head. ''There's a radio on your head,'' Greg Chase suddenly said.''Radio!'' Scissors muttered and raised his hand to touch his head but he did not feel anything, and to Greg's shock, Greg saw Scissors' hand pass through the radio. ''Ah, boss...you are playing the pranks on me. But there is an antenna on your head anyway,'' Scissors said to Greg Chase. Without wasting time, Greg Chase raised his hand to touch his head, and he was not surprised when he could not feel anything, yet he saw Scissors gasp in shock. ''Your hand passed through it,'' Scissors said. ''Same thing that happened to you. There's a radio on your h

    ''You...I must give it to you as the watcher with the biggest ego ever...'' The Man said to Greg Chase.Greg Chase frowned. ''Are there more watchers? I thought I was the only one,'' he said to The Man as he walked towards Scissors and started to pull him up again, but just like before, an unknown force repelled Greg Chase. The Man laughed his usual mocking laugh, one that made Greg Chase upset by all means. ''Can you please release my friend? What the hell?'' he asked The Man, anger flashing evidently in his eyes.''I am not holding your friend to anything, he will get up when he wants to,'' The Man replied.''And, about your question as to if there are other watchers, of course, there are billions of watchers around the world,'' The Man said to Greg Chase. ''I thought I was the only one. Are they also up to anything as big as mine? Do they try to take down their enemies or they are solely connected to the source of wherever this watcher thing comes from?'' Greg Chase asked. ''T

    Greg Chase was beside himself, wondering why Laura had suddenly cut off from him.Yes, she might have been spotted in his house, but from the way he felt, he knew that word had not gotten to Mr. Ban about the fact that she was in his house, so why was she suddenly unavailable? Why was she no longer interested in their plan to overthrow Mr. Ban completely this time?He had his hopes on her, especially now that Don Black had looked in another direction, having found another ''young blood'' to show the ropes of the business and get acquainted with. No matter how many times Greg Chase called Laura Ban, it either did not go through, or she abruptly hung the call up on him.''Urgh, what the fuck is going on?'' Greg Chase asked himself. He felt as if everyone he knew and looked forward to helping him achieve one thing or the other, was turning their back on him. But, under what basis? What did he do, or what did they suddenly realize for them to have such a decision made overnight?''Boss

    ''What is it?'' Shadow asked, looking very interested in Barter's thoughts. Barter had been looking at him with so much intensity, he had to know what was on Barter's mind while he was looking at him. Barter looked at Shadow closely.If he told Barter what he knew, everything could take another turn for the worst, but he also wanted Laura Ban to face the repercussion of the trouble that she had doled out on others. Shadow stared at Barter, waiting for an answer. ''I was just wondering when you will ever settle down with one woman. You should be married by now, you know...'' Barter suddenly said. Shadow was surprised. ''Are you kidding me right now?'' he asked Barter.Barter shook his head. ''Nope! After you lost your ex-wife, I could understand you staying away from relationships and not wanting to commit to anyone anymore, but it's been nearly ten years since that happened. Don't you think you need someone by you to make you feel better? You know what I mean. Even gangstas nee

    Barter was getting frustrated, and desperate. After spending more than two decades with Mr. Ban, he was easily going to throw him, Barter to a corner just because of a loose whore he called his wife? He stared at the door of the room as if he wished that his eyes would bore a hole through. ''Preposterous,'' he muttered as he suddenly turned to leave. In the living room, when Barter stormed in angrily, he saw Shadow. Barter looked at Shadow as if he was seeing a ghost. ''Dude, where the hell have you been for nearly two weeks?'' Barter asked, shocked. Shadow rolled his eyes. ''Did you really expect me to hang around so that I will get discovered by Chase and the rest of them that I am on Ban's side?'' Shadow asked. Barter suddenly realized. There was no way Greg Chase and his cohorts would not have found out about Shadow playing both sides, the tension and pressure were too much, especially after the war. ''You are right, you would have been spotted,'' Barter said.

    The Garment Of Wickedness

    ''We just had a few drinks and nothing more,'' Laura Ban said. By this time, they had arrived at the home of Mr. Ban.Mr. Ban hurried out of the car as if, if he stayed there for one more second, something will happen to him. ''Boss!'' Barter greeted him as soon as he sighted him. He had been waiting rather impatiently for Mr. Ban to return and give him a rundown of what happened at Laura Ban's house. Barter would have been the one to follow Mr. Ban to Laura Ban's family house, but his hideous face did not allow him. ''How did it go, boss?'' Barter asked. Mr. Ban glanced at Barter and rolled his eyes. Barter knew at once that Mr. Ban must have been ridiculed and insulted. The look on the man's face was so intensely upset. Barter spotted Laura Ban behind, hurrying up to meet Mr. Ban, and he obviously hissed, loudly enough so that Laura Ban would hear him. But of course, at the moment, Laura was bothered about something else, so she paid Barter no mind. She hurried towards Mr
