The next cab he flagged and he handed the man the address. It was not so far away a drive and if it had been on one of his less hasty days where he knew the address, he might have trekked to the place. It was actually a coffee shop just around the corner and Kevin was confused as to whether the old lady had pulled off a fast one on him. If Melissa had come to a coffee shop, what has that got to do with her wrecking homes or whatever she had been saying. He had actually been expecting an inn or a hotel to say the least because no way would anyone be comfortable at such a place. He decided that he would go inside and see for himself what it was that the woman had been trying to point out and also, get an opportunity to complete his task.

There were two entrances and Kevin decided to enter through the one closest to him in hopes that she would not see him enter and then think that he was stalking her. He would want it to be sheer coincidence in a space where she is comfortable enough. Se

    She had not noticed him on time but then, it took Melissa a couple of minutes to realize that she was being followed. She had actually been walking when she noticed that someone was on her trail and she panicked. He would not get in front of her of voice but continued maintaining a distance between them. She had been of the thought that perhaps, one of the wives of the men she hung out with had set this person on her trail to deal with her and if she continued this way, he might eventually get a chance to corner her and kill her.Out of sheer fear, she started out and was walking really fast without stopping. She moved briskly and swiftly as she thought about what to do which was when the bright idea crossed her mind. Perhaps, she would confirm that this person was following her as she knew that the moment she stops somewhere, he would not continue ahead and even if he did, he would be lurking around somewhere thereby giving her the opportunity to turn around and head back the other w

    "Busted." She said to him."Busted? What are you talking about?" He asked her pretending not to know in strong hopes that she would not catch onto him."Come on, I know you have been following me, Kevin. Although I cannot say where for certain had it started." She said.Kevin was relieved but he still was not going to admit to that."Actually no. I was really hungry and was wondering what lunch at the place across would taste like." He said. He had been really lucky that it was indeed a restaurant at the opposite place and he had been facing in that direction."So, you weren't following me?" She asked looking grim as her high expectancies for herself seemed to have been severed right now."I don't know, you tell me?" Kevin asked with a smile.He had noted her sudden change in emotions and decided to play it cool with her as he could not let her slip off his fingers. He did not have much time now as he needed to get this task over and done with."So you did not realize I was walking in

    Kevin had gone home straight up after he had left her place and only when he had gotten home did he realize that he had still not gotten his jacket from her. He started contemplating on whether to return to her and ask for his jacket but he was aware of the pensive situation between them and the fact that should he attempt to get back there with her, he was going to face off hell with her or be tempted to finish what he had started with her. He could not tell whether he would have enough strength to restrain himself this time around.Hence, he remained home and really uncomfortable as he needed to hear from the system that his task was completed successfully and then he would decide on what to do. He worried a great deal about her and the fact that he had left her in such a mood gave him a lot to think of. She must really hate him now and see him as a player but then, looking on the bright side of things, she had been no different. She was worse with her manipulative behavior and sob

    He had gone to sleep downcast and disappointed. He could not believe that all his efforts had been to waste and that he probably had been pranked by the system. I mean, how could he still look the very same despite chosing to look good looking. Kevin was on the verge of losing it when he decided to get to bed. It was alarming how the system he ha come to trust had pulled a fast one on him after making him go through the hoops to win this particular challenge. It had been tough. Now, he was just going to be the sad guy who had a couple of dollars sitting in his bank account that would finish soon enough and whom had lost chances to be with two of the best women he had ever come across. Angrily, he turned the mirror backwards and went to bed.Early the next morning, he woke up to get ready for school as there was no point in missing out when he was still the same person he was. He took his bath and got ready as he stepped out of the house. As he came out, he caught glances being thrown

    As she walked away, the guys were making hooting calls and whistling while Kevin stared at the jacket in his meal. Their noise, certainly not what the other persons in the restaurant were having."Gentlemen, I'm gonna ask that you lot keep it down." A waiter had approached them with a stern look on her face."Now I used to think Barry, that people should be happy when eating?" Allen pretended to ask."So I thought too." Barry responded as he picked up a piece of chip from his plate and threw it at Kevin forcing him to snap out of it."Ain't no one saying you shouldn't be happy, just don't disturb others while at it." The waiter said.Seeming to have noticed the waiter now, Kevin spoke to him."We're really sorry about the noise. We'd keep it down now." Kevin said.The waiter nodded and then spoke to him again as he stared at his suit covered meal."Would you be needing another plate of that?" He asked Kevin."Would he pay for a second plate?" Allen asked with s sneaky grin on his face

    As he walked down the street, Kevin thought to himself about the party and decided that now he was a cool guy, he really needed to turn up a little notch. He walked in the way of really good stores until he found one which his mind accepted and got inside. "Hello, sir. What shall we be aiding you with?" An attendant said to him."Actually, I'm in need of your expertise and direction." Kevin said to him."That is why we are here." The attendant said to him.He could see the eyes of the ladies on him but he was focused on his goal."There's the party tonight, a little student thing but I would be needing something simple yet effortlessly classy for the occasion." He said."Did they stipulate a dress code?" The attendant asked smiling.Dang it!!! Kevin realized he had not asked but decided to play it cool with hopes he was not wrong."Not really." He said."Great. So what are your usual favorite?" The attendant asked."I'm usually a vintage shirt over corporates or jeans." Kevin said lo

    The ironical feeling of nostalgia he got right this moment could meet no bounds. All this while, he had been thinking that there would be nothing done to Vanessa although he secretly wished he could pay her back in her own coins which she used against him. The irony of life is really so unprecedented and right now, that was the same thing with Vanessa. To think that she had let him be filmed and disgraced via social media that had led him to this point. And now, the very same social media was bound to be her very own undoing.He faced her with a wicked glee in his eyes bearing clearly, the mark of the playboy which he was. He held his glass in his hand classically as she observed him. He could tell that she was rather stunned and was trying hard to keep her act together."You look..." She could not find words to finish.Words right now could not compare with his transformation into this near majestical person she was seeing. Obviously, Vanessa was beginning to count her losses.

    The blaring music and then he sat on the couch as he observed the party. There were girls seated at each side of him and he could see them struggling for who would get his attention. However, Kevin's gaze had not left his target and neither had she failed to turn around from time to time to stare at him.Vanessa; she was already acting all weird and funny. She could see him with the other ladies and clearly she felt really jealous. Mickey, had come to her again and whispered into her ears as she gave him her hand before he took her to dance with her. But as she looked behind his shoulders, she was lost in the whirlpool of thoughts. She could not stop looking at Kevin who stared intensely at her."Let's go dance, Kevin." One of the girls cooed into his ears."I'm sorry, I'm not a good dancer. In fact, I don't dance at all but I would love to watch you dance." He said to her."I could give you a lap dance, you know?" The other girl at his side suggested."I suggested that we dance first

    He could not understand how he had become instrumental to the closing of the shoot. Kevin feared at this point as to what the matter was. He could not understand but he really feared as he helplessly looked at Omar. But the guy was looking totally bewildered at this point as he stared back at Kevin. Something had definitely happened to imstigate all of this."Did I do something wrong, Sir?" Kevin asked him."Actually, there is." Don Quinton said as he punched numbers into his phone."Sir, if I may ask, what is the something?" Kevin asked fearfully."I fear you may be my brother's son. Now, excuse me." Don Quinton said and just then placed the phone against his ears. "Hello, Doctor Smith."The man had taken a couple of steps away as he spoke to the doctor. Only now did Omar come close to Kevin. He was still confused and perplexed but if this was actually true, it would go a long way to prove why his feelings towards Kevin started to turn platonic."Alas, you might be my family." Omar s

    Kevin had no option but to take off the jacket as he stood there. He looked at his manager for a reaction and the man nodded for him to go ahead and turn around. Kevin was scared he might have gotten on the man's bad records but turned around nevertheless."It's just a birth mark, nothing so bad when even my brother had something similar to this on his....his back????" Don Quinton suddenly exclaimed.He suddenly realized how similar if not identical this was to the one that used to be on his brother's back and right around the very same spot. "Stop right there, boy." Don Quinton said as he started coming towards him.Kevin nearly fainted. He heard the man's hastened footsteps coming towards him and he nearly cried out. He did not want any troubles with the bigger man and simply wanted to be better. He started to focus on breathing as he was holding his breath back at this point."Hold still, boy." Don Quinton said to him.Kevin did as he was told and remained standing."Tissue." The

    Kevin had already gotten into his makeup session and was getting doused with golden covering on his body that seemed to glitter as he was dress as though he was some militant from the jungle. It was a fine one. They were going to yet make a commando out of him as a band was tied around his arm to elevate the look of his muscles. Kevin could not believe he looked this hot. The past weeks of workout which he had been doing on empty stomach did pay off and his abs were out. Although, they were not so firm, the makeup artist was so good that she made them seem more elaborate.All through this session, she kept giving glances to Kevin. Seductive ones actually as she admired him greatly. She would sometimes when no one was watching flick her tongue at him but he was less interested in all of that. Eventually, that session was done with and he had to wear a jacket as his dark birth mark around his back was not covered easily. They were worried he would sweat a lot during the shoot or he wou

    "You're late, again." His manager said to him the moment he had arrived.Kevin brought up a smile to his face that was supposed to have some apologetic effects. He had actually gone to drop off his friends and went to drop off Allen at the hospital. He had to see Maria who was beginning to stand for himself. Although it was brief, their connection to each other was evident, even to Allen himself who had asked them..."Do I excuse you both?" He said."And you would promise to always excuse us?" Kevin asked him, teasingly."I'm kidding right now. I don't trust hooligans and models around women." Allen had said.Kevin got carried away at this point that he had to stay with Maria quite longer, ignoring his calls which were reminders of the time he was supposed to make an appearance. He was quite engrossed with her that it had taken the intervention of Mike, the driver who had to come in and ask the receptionist where to find him. They knew Kevin was popular and when he said that he was hi

    She really had nothing against Kevin and simply wanted to be in the know of all that had happened. Alice had proven to him that she had not the slightest of wires taped to her body and now, he saved her from going all the way. What did she care about, her cousin had been dragged all over the internet for the same reason. It would only be fair if she too gets the same treatment."Fine. Get dressed. You made your point." He said to her."Does that mean you would answer?" She asked him."Yes. I did leak the first ones she sent me but that was only in a vengeful spite. The second one too but I did not kidnap her. Your sister had taken my nude photos while I was asleep and had been blackmailing me into a relationship with her. My buddy decided to intervene and aid me." He said to her."Any of them in the bullying trio?" She asked, referring to Allen and the others."No." Kevin said."Thank you for being honest. You did not deserve getting blackmailed and I did not know. I am sorry. I was t

    "Let's sit here then." Alice said to Kevin.It was the little raised pavement by the parking lot where they used to sit. That was a fun spot for students at some point and a hiding spot also. Nevertheless, Kevin sat down in greater hopes that things would go smoothly. He reckoned he would be mindful of his eyes as there was actually no telling what would happen and he could not have a shoot with black eyes or his manager would kill him."Alright, Alice. Why are we here?" Kevin asked her."Heard you were ill. Are you fine now?" She asked him.Was she here to play courtesy or use him further now her sister was away or something because at this point, he would rather he makes it clear to everyone including her that he had not the time and energy to take anything shoved at him. He wanted nothing further with any lady. Either way, he chose courtesy over rudeness."I'm fine. Just have to sit out this game. So tell me, whats up?" Kevin asked her."I needed us to talk." She responded."Talk?

    It was strenuous but he had to keep pushing forward.. Kevin found how exhausting the entire thing had been for days since he resumed training. He had heard his alarm this morning and it felt like he would want to smash it in pieces as fatigue was beginning to make his bones feel like rubber. He flopped on his bed but then, missing school was not an option either as he had a serious quiz to get ready for. Kevin was gradually crawling up the point and brink of never returning. He waited for a little while before finally pulling himself off the bed.As he got into the bathroom, he picked up his brush and started to do his usual morning rituals. His skin actually glowed and he was more than satisfied with his reflection in the mirror. He suddenly slowly raised his shirt and noticed how his abs were actually beginning to form. Today was going to be a very busy day as he had a quiz, training and a little thing his manager had refused to actually feel him in on. He had not the slightest idea

    Kevin could not believe what had just happened with the principal. The influence of Don Quinton or his popularity but either way, it would come to seem as though he was actually swimming in the greatness of the time he found himself. The principal had taken it upon himself to punish the boys and to their dismay, they were to serve detention for two hours for the next two weeks. How funny as he used to be at the receiving end of all of this maltreatment. Although he enjoyed it, he did not want his time at the top to seem like tyranny. He wanted to do better and he needed his focus on everything he was doing. Kevin and the boys left the office as he held the bag of ice to the little scratch on his forehead that was actually a little on the red side of things. "I do hope this would not cause distortions to our star?" The principal had asked while escorting them out of his office."I'll be fine." Had been Kevin's response.When they returned to class without the other two, it was easier

    Perhaps the news of my car acquisition shielded me from a couple of other judgemental stuff but we had to get down to school activities as it should have been all this while. I had been up and running on the receiving end of congratulations from everyone around me as it would come to seem that they were all pleased and happy for me. I had my life back again and this time, it was beginning to feel like I merited it. Unlike then when it was all like I had been the evil demon of the whole lot.But then, it was the system that bothered me right now. It had mentioned family to me and now I had to admit to the fact that I was already on the edge where I could lose control any moment. Was it really going to bring me to my family as it had gone silent and the system very much was nothing that I could actually look up and look forward to helping me out with anything at this point. It would pretty much rather delay and show up just when it feels like it. This was what I had to deal with everyti
