*****Kess pov******

I laid on my bed and checked the time frequently waiting for Rosa's call. My child's life was in danger. Mr Lionel is unpredictable.

"What if he kills my baby? What if I never see him again?"Small drops of crystalline tears started dropping from my eyes. I've lost everything, my husband's love,our money and now my child is a stake and I'm about to betray my childhood friend.

My phone beeped and I sat on the bed immediately. I picked the phone and it was Rosa.

"Hey homegirl." i sniffed.

"What's wrong with you? Have you been crying?" Rosa asked and more tears dropped from my eyes.

I cleaned them and took a deep breath.

"Tell me the truth. Did Troy do something again?" She asked.

"Are you on your way to the restaurant? I'm hungry already." I said,a way of diverting the conversation.

"Yes. I'm on my way. See you soon love. Bye." She said and I hung the call. I took my remaining make up that I had in my house. The rest

    I went home and started executing the plan ma'am Prudencia asked me to.I called Laura with a new, untraceable number. She picked up."Hello." I said with a deep raspy voice."Hi and who's this?" She asked and I laughed heartily."You can call me one of your well wishers." I said and she scoffed."Tell me who you are and stop wasting my time." She yelled."I have something important to tell you about your mom and your younger sister. A huge secret which could help you crush them." I said and she dropped the call.I called ma'am Prudencia to update her. She just laughed it out."She'll call you back. I'm sure of it." She assured."Are you sure?

I said as i cleaned the tears that stained my face and left his office.I went home and dropped my bag on the couch. I paced round the room thinking and tugging at my hair."Does Rosa know about this? Why did mom make me step down from the company? Does my mom love Rosa than me?" I asked my self several times but I couldn't get an answer. My curiosity was killing me and my head was banging. I took my car key on the center table and decided to go confront Rosa and my mom. At least I deserve to know why they hid the truth from me.I drove to the Manson and barged in. I saw the both of them seated opposite to each other. My mom watching TV and Rosa working on her laptop which was still an awakard view."How dare you do this to me? I hate you mom. You're the worst."

    After an hour of searching,my mom and dad drove to the scene. I ran to them and hugged them. My mom pushed me away. "Where is my Laura? What did you say happened to her?" She yelled.My dad just stood still,shocked probably and doesn't know what to do or how to react to the situation. My mother went to a policeman."You guys aren't doing your job. Where is my daughter?" She yelled at the man. He was tall and his skin was dark.. His presence sparked authority so everyone would assume he was the boss or his rank was higher. I saw some stars arranged by the shoulder of his uniform. "That's a higher ranking officer. Who call him?" I asked myself.I shrugged later on. "Maybe he's interested in the case." "Calm down ma. Your daughter would be found. We've called all professionals to this scene." He assured. "I don't need your assurance. I want my daughter." She screamed. My dad held her and took her away from the policeman. "Let's calm down and hope. How did it happen Rosa?" "I just

I asked."Where is my son?" He struggled to say. "We'll soon find him. We've seen his cloth." I lied.Mrs Lionel walked in with a tray and a mug in it. She dressed elegantly as usual and was admired with expensive jewels from head to toe. Her face was lit up with makeup."No wonder Mr Roberto doesn't like her." My subconscious added. "Let him have this then you can give him whatever drugs or injection." She said. She placed the tray on a small stool in the room,she then helped Mr Raymond up then carried the mug.She tried her best to feed him the tea but he pushed her away with the little streng

    ***Rosa's pov***Watching mom try to make dad fall in with with her again was so annoying to watching. It made me cringe whenever she tried to seduce him. When I say seduce,I mean her using old stupid tricks like throwing the remote on the floor and bending to pick it while wearing a short seductive dress,I mean that's so disgusting considering they are your parent."Just get the fuck away from me. I'm trying to watch tv." My dad yelled as he left the living room."Wait up Daniel. I know you want this. Don't be shy." Mom said and she ran towards him.This is so embarrassing.
