Henry put on some of the designer wear that he got during his shopping spree with his uncle and looked at himself in the mirror.Seeing that his outfit was top-notch, he picked up the car key and went down to the parking lot where he got into the car and drove off.He didn't know where he was going since he was new in New York, but thanks to the modern age, all he needed was to search a place up.After scrolling through the multiple suggestions from the internet, Henry made a few choices.Now all that was left, was to party.Henry went from nightclub to nightclub, dancing, and drinking. But just enough to not make him wasted.He still had more places to go to, so it'll be a bummer if he got too drunk to do anything.At least half a bottle of beer per club would do.Henry spent at least thirty minutes at every club, but when he got to the seventh one, he ended up staying a bit longer to clear up his head.He could already feel himself getting tipsy.He found himself resting face down a
Henry and Bianca walked into the building through security who just let them in after a brief search."I thought you lived here?" Bianca asked when they reached the elevator."I do," Henry answered as he clicked on the button to call the elevator and then turned to her."Then why did they search us?""That's standard security procedures," Henry explained, "I might live here, but it's still one of the biggest cooperations in the world.""You do make a point," Bianca nodded slightly.It was at this moment that the elevator doors opened and they both got in. Henry clicked on the button to take them to the 19th floor where the apartment was."I've been meaning to ask, why do you stay here?" Bianca queried."I guess I like it here. Being close to my place of work makes me feel fulfilled in a way," Henry answered.Now that was a lie. Henry didn't want to tell her that he stayed here with his uncle, thinking that she would view that as a red flag and leave.It was completely a lie since he w
The door to the apartment opened and Henry walked in. He took off his shoes and threw them to the side and walked into the living room.Kelvin sat on the couch watching the morning news. He glanced at Henry when he came in, but he quickly brought his gaze back to the television."I'm really sorry about this whole thing uncle," Henry apologized as he sat down on the other couch.He had woken up this morning to find out that his uncle was back. He had initially panicked and wanted to rush Bianca out of the apartment, but Kelvin had told him not to.Kelvin had stepped out so that Bianca would not see him when she woke up. When she did, she and Henry had spoken for a bit before she freshened up and was ready to leave.Henry took the car and drove her to the house. It was quite a distance away, but Kelvin had permitted him to take the car for as long as he needed.He was just coming back to find that Kelvin had already returned and was chilling in the living room."You don't have to apolo
Cassidy sat down in the building's waiting area and looked around nervously. She had on a face mask which she used to cover her face so she wouldn't be identified.After all, she was quite popular now after the release of her first single under her record label.The reason she was even in New York was because she had a concert she would be performing in.'Why am I even here?' Cassidy kept asking herself in her head.'This is someone who hadn't called me in months. Don't I have a sense of dignity?'"Hey Cassy," Cassidy heard a painfully familiar voice and she turned to see Kelvin looking at her with a smile."Hi Kelvin," She responded before standing up.Kelvin stretched his hand to her, "come, walk with me."Cassidy looked at his hand before looking back at his face. Her expression told Kelvin already telling Kelvin what she was thinking."Ok," Kelvin dropped his hand, "why don't you just walk with me? Without holding my hand."Cassidy responded with a groan and they both walked outsi
Henry drove through the roads with his new car; a Mercedes Benz.Kelvin had told him that this was a gift and that anything that goes wrong with the car, he would have to fix it by himself.If it was in the past, Henry would have rejected the car since he wouldn't know how to gather the money to fix it if something went wrong, but since he knew that he would be getting a job soon, he took on the responsibility.Henry was supposed to have met up with Bianca like ten minutes ago, but since this was his first car, he decided to go on a joyride first and get a good feel of it.However, he had taken a few turns and would be at Bianca's house in a few minutes.He suddenly heard his phone ring and he reached for it to see Bianca's name on the caller ID."Hey, what's up? Sorry, I'm on my way to your place now," Henry said as he picked up the call."Oh, yeah, about that, don't go to my house," Bianca responded."Why? You wanna cancel?" Henry asked."No, I'm just not there. Meet me at the spot
"Hey," Bianca waved at Henry the moment he walked in.Henry smiled and walked over to her table and sat down opposite her."What's good?" Henry asked."Everything now that you're here," Bianca smiled."Okay, kill the flirting Bianca," Henry laughed."I don't think I can," Bianca bit her lower lip.Henry scoffed, "Honestly, I thought what we had was just a one-night stand. I have zero idea why I'm here or why I agreed to be here.""You're here because you know you didn't want it to just be a one-time thing," Bianca responded."Bold assumption. What makes you say that?" Henry asked."Well, if I was wrong you wouldn't be here," Bianca grinned."I can't affirm nor deny the accuracy of that logic," Henry smiled back."I hear the bathrooms here are really neat, wanna come see it with me?" Bianca asked.Before Henry could answer, she had already gotten up and began to walk into the cafe's restroom.Henry just sat there watching her leave with a smile and after a few seconds, he got up and we
The men shot at Gary frantically as he jumped out the window. As he was free-falling outside, Gary grabbed the window frame on the third floor and swung himself through the window while maintaining his momentum. He crashed into the room and rolled on the ground before a wardrobe stopped his momentum when he almost broke through it.The men rushed to the window and looked down but they could not see Gary. Confused, they ran out of the room.The noise was bound to bring attention.Gary rolled on his back with a groan before trying to control his erratic breathing.His hands hurt from the force he used to swing himself in here, and he was sure he had dislocated his shoulders.He felt pain in his midsection and looked down to see a bullet wound and a large shard of glass lodged a few inches away from his chest."Yeah, I'm fucked..." Gary said as he bled out on the room's floor......Henry waved at Bianca who waved back before going into her house. He watched her go in before entering
"Turn here," Kelvin said and Henry turned the steering wheel to the direction he pointed.The drive was mostly silent with Kelvin telling Henry when to turn when he approached an intersection. Henry had wanted to ask where they were going to, but Kelvin's serious expression as he looked at his phone discouraged him.He could guess that wherever they were going to, it was important to his uncle. The drive went on for a few minutes until Kelvin told him to stop in front of a store."Here?" Henry asked in confusion as he looked at the store. The place looked shady and it made him feel uncomfortable. It was definitely not a place he would expect his uncle to be affiliated with.Kelvin didn't reply him but just stepped out of the car and walked into the store. Henry just sat in there wondering if he should follow him in or not, or if he should just leave.Henry ended up waiting for his uncle for about five minutes and yet there was no sign of him coming out. He was on edge.Suddenly, a w
