Chapter 10 "We won't get caught. That's the whole point. No one knows we know each other, right? So no one will connect us to them, to each other. It's perfect.With my brains and your… blank slate,we can get away with this. Don't you wanna make her pay?" Leah asked Shawn with an evil smile. "I don't want to make her pay. I want to burn her to the ground." "Whoa. That gave me chills. Do you see this? My arm hair's up. Look at that. You're giving off some serious, like Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction energy.But if we're gonna make this work…we have to fix…" Leah started "No," Shawn interjected "…this." Leah continued "I don't want to." Shawn objected "We have to do…" Leah continued, playing deaf to all of Shawn's pleading "Oh, please don't say a makeover." He begged. He was already running out of money and he still had a lot of bills to pay "…a makeover! Yay!""It feels so problematic." Shawn objected "It is, but it's fun! Let's start with her. She'll be a cinch. I can rui
Chapter 11The party had only started slowly with less vibe than Leah had expected. And she had been away from Max for a while, letting her eyes scan through the whole place to notice what had been going on."Looks weird, where are all his friends?" Leah inspected after she noticed she didn't see most of the guys he had always been with.She looked around and noticed the girls doing their stuff on the other end dancing to tunes and music."They are the only way to get past Max, I could use them as a diversion when I feel something is wrong. . .""Are you okay?" A voice from behind asked."Ummm, yeah... Anything the matter?" Leah asked. "Here!" The woman said, handing over a glass of wine to Leah."Ohh how kind. . . Thanks," she replied with a smile and grabbed the drink from the tray."If you need anything, just come over to that place!" She pointed with a cringing smile."There? Sure I will, thanks again," Leah smiled and immediately she moved away, she set her eyes back on Max who h
Chapter 12A very bright day with shades of wind blowing over Shawn as he stood by the window, waiting patiently for the call and hoping that Leah had gotten him in her hands. And for a fact, he expected nothing but success because everything had been set for her to win."I believe this will work, something tells me that this will work out well for us, and just when this is all over, I will remind him vividly of who I am again; surely I am not one of those boys he messes with," Shawn thought as he stared into the skies.Just when a thought clicked into his mind, the thought that Leah was going to call him soon. . . He searched his pockets."Where did I drop. . ?" He said as he turned around checking where he had last dropped his phone."Ohh here it is!" He echoed with a smile.He picked it up and began fiddling with him, hoping for that moment where he would see Leah's call at first sight. . ."What if I call her. . .?? I know I'm not too patient, but come on! It's been hours after she
Chapter 13"Rat-tat-tat!!" There was a loud bang on the door, something that rarely happened in that home. The door clicked open immediately when one of the men went out to check who had been at the door."Yong master!!" The guard Saud, bowing for Shawn whose eyes had been like he hadn't had a sleep in days."Are you okay sir?" He asked."I'm fine. . . And don't act crazy!" Shawn said as he walked into the house."Hey, who was that at the door. . .?" Shawn's father came out asking. . ."He. . . Sorry, your son just arrived back home and he has taken the back door into the house." The guard responded."What? He did not care to come in and greet me?" He said shaking his head as he went back into the house, and the guard without saying a single word went back into his station."Hi, mum!" Shawn said as he walked past her into his bedroom without any other word.His mom was confused for a moment thinking she had done something wrong. . ."Hey, baby. . . Are you feeling okay? What's going
Chapter 14Everyone had been quiet about everything for a long time, and no one seemed to be talking. After Leah had caught Shawn with the new girl, she was furious, and immediately disappeared for a full day without picking up her phone. She had gone back to her little house outside of school where she knew no one would come and disturb her peace. She knew she needed the alone time and definitely, staying back at home was going to be the solution for her to find her peace."Wait a minute. . .! Why I'm I angry that I saw him with another girl?" She paused for a moment as the thought lingered in her mind. She knew for once she cared about one of her male friends around the opposite gender except her, and she had no idea why this has been going on and on.I just hope it's not what I'm thinking because if it is, well I don't know but Shawn doesn't have to know about any of this. . ." She shook her head."Did I make a mistake acting that way? You know, maybe I Would have gotten to know
Chapter 15.Just about everything was going to go wrong for Shawn if he did not find him, his friend. . . From day one, he had always been there for Shawn and a few times caused him a pain in the ass. But those memories were going to haunt him forever if he did not find a way to get his friend out of where ever he had been kept captive."Shawn! Shawn!!" A voice echoed from behind as he kept on walking fast. . . Like there was no going back from this."I said wait up!! You have been walking and I have been following you around for the last 30 minutes. . . You have not said a word to me and I have no idea where we are going or where you are taking me." Leah said, finally feeling relaxed that he had allowed her to speak."You will know. . . But for now, we have to keep going, we are almost there!" Shawn said calmly, turning to move on but she quickly grabbed him and pulled him back."You have to tell me what is going on here!" She said. Instantly, she noticed the look by which Shawn had
Chapter 16"Shawn! Shawn!!!" A voice came calling in his sleep for him to wake up."What's. . . What is it, why are you disturbing my sleep?" He asked in a sleepy tone as he tried yawning."You are needed right now!" "Who? No one . . . Knows me!" He uttered."It's the lecturer. He wants to see you now!" "Who? What?" Shawn immediately opened his eyes wide like he had been awake for a long time. It was Leah and he quickly sat up trying to wipe his eyes and stretch after a short sleep he had."Sorry, say that again!" "It's the lecturer, he wants to see you?""But for what? Have I done anything wrong? Surely not. . . I know I have been the. . .""Best student? Yeah! About that. . ." Leah confirmed."He wants to see me because I'm a good student? Which teacher has ever done that. . . Not that I've heard of one.""Look, Shawn! You are not in trouble, okay? I think it's something good, you'd like it!""Hey, don't play with me. . . Look how you made me scared.""I didn't scare you, you wer
Chapter 17"Now get to my office!!" The teacher commanded the leader of the bullies. "Not again!!" One of them murmured."Hmm! We just survived that, didn't we?" Leah said with a worried face."What a way to start the day!" Shawn replied. . . Giving off a shrug as he walked away.The day had started on a bad note for Shawn, and for Sure, he was not ready to get cheesed off and go ballistic. And for that, he was ready for anyone that was going to try him and probably step on his toes. He just hoped that when it happened, Pedro would be with him.He had left Leah who had walked to her class to pick up some of the books she had dropped when she had gone to call Shawn for the teacher. She walked out of the school, waiting by the side of the pavement for a taxi that would take her back to her home.The first car passed by she wasn't quick to stop it just when it was close. . . And in the nick of time, another came rolling by, and this time. . . It stopped right in front of her like he kne
