Mason sat at the window corner of the plane feeling so pained about all he had to risk just to make sure the dream of making everyone who hurt him and the people he cared about come to pass.He looked at the clouds and spoke to his inner child softly in a voice above a whisper, “I’ll make sure everyone goes down not after all what they did to me.” he gripped his pants and squeezed it so tight.Precious who sat close by to him looked at him from the way he gripped his trousers so tight with his veins popping out so clear.She looked left and right to be sure no one was watching them before she tapped him with her left hand.She shoved her mouth closer to his ears, “Mason, we are in the plane people might be watching you from afar and I must say that I heard the words you muttered to yourself quietly.”Mason looked at her in shock one could see through his eyes that he wasn’t expecting much from her.“Was my voice that loud that you were able to hear it?” He grabbed her hands and placed
The man who was recording them stood frozen at first. His feet were so cold that he didn’t even think about the next thing to do. His hands held onto the phone that he had used to record Precious and Mason so tight.“Are you scared of turning your back to see the person standing behind you?” the person from behind asked him with a demeaning tone.The light-skinned young boy stood at ease and didn’t bother to say a word to the person talking from behind.“Do you want me to take you to them?” The voice pressed him down.The fair-skinned boy Ignored him and tried running away as far as his legs could catch him but the moment he gave it a shot he was pulled back with one heavy grip from his waist.“What do you think you are doing?” The boy became flustered from the way he was carried like a young kid.One could easily mistake him for a kid because he has a child-like stature. He has light skin with tattered hair around his beard and a little cross tattoo on the left side of his neck.“Do
The weather became cloudy as soon as Mason and Precious hopped into the car. Precious could feel the intensity from Mason's hands as he still held his hands with hers. She looked at his hands and a gleam of joy was on her face. “If only my little wish can come to reality right away.” She spoke to her inner child while still maintaining that perfect smile on his face. “Sir, where are we heading to? Home or?”“At her bus stop.” Mason cut him off with his response. “Alright sir!” The driver turned on the ignition and fired with full speed. Mason turned his neck a little a bit and he was amazed to see the beautiful smile playing on Precious lips. “What is going through your mind, Precious?” He teased her slightly, rubbing his shoulders gently on her. “Uhmm.. Nothing really much to be honest.” she pretended to be fine by giving him a bright response. “I won't take that as my answer. I know you have something going through your mind from the way you have been smiling at me lately.”
"Hey! You can start driving right now." He tapped his driver who stopped the car waiting for him to give him a response before he proceeded."Do you have any plans to visit your favorite restaurants to have a quick snack because you look tired, Sir?" The driver asked him out of concern looking through the rear mirror. ""Thanks for the care and offer but I don't think I'd want to stop by at the restaurant to have anything. If at all I feel hungry before we arrive home I'll let you know." He said to him with so much assurance in his voice. "Fair enough! I'd rather keep going so we won't get beaten by this rain." The driver started on the car and focused on the steering wheel. Mason nodded his head in agreement with what his driver had said to him. He focused his mind and face on the other side of the window as he stared at every little thing that passed him by. He snapped his fingers immediately he had the thoughts of his father and Aunty Margaret,, "That reminds me, do you have any
Mason felt agitated by his father's question. He didn't know that the scars and marks on his skin were quite obvious to be seen by his father. He rolled down his sleeves and acted all cool as if he had zero idea of what his father was talking about. "Dad, what scars are you talking about? As far as I'm concerned I can't find any scars on my body?" He lied to his face without a fuss or any sense of remorse. "Mason, let's not do this back and forth thing right now. I'm your father and you can feel safe opening up to me, who knows whether I might be of help to you."Mason tightened his hands on the chair, "Father,let's not even go there at all. When I needed you the most you didn't show up and now you are here acting and telling me to be safe with you." He burst out a sinister laugh one that could predict a sense of mockery. "Mason! When exactly haven't I been of help to you? When I found out that you are the heir of my dynasty I made sure that I bless you with everything that will ma
After placing a call and forwarding her number to Anna's private messenger app. She stood in the hallway where no one else could see her and sat on the chair available right there. She placed her hands on her face and thought about her life for a moment. She still couldn't wrap her head around all that she had just witnessed from Anna acting as if she didn't plan everything with her to James being mad at the woman he told us he loves. "Could it be that they are in an arranged marriage?" She shook her head and scoffed out loud still in shock about all that her eyes had witnessed from the couples. She stood up from the chair and walked up to the stairs thinking out loud while still processing how she would spend the money she would be receiving from Anna. "Who knows maybe one of them is using the other spouse for benefits. They might be playing a dangerous game between themselves but I hope it won't be too late before they realize their mistakes." She spoke to her inner child as if
Anna was stunned and beyond shock to hear the words from the nurse's mouth. She was never expecting her to use that on her not even as her weakness. Anna rumbled back her words and corporated herself in the best way that wouldn't make her regret her action. “Come again? What did you say? Are you serious about what you meant?” She dropped her bags on the floor and staggered. “You heard me clear. I'm sure you are not deaf not to have heard my words loud and clear.” She eyed her and braced herself with so much aura in her voice and appearance. “Do you mean what you said?” Anna asked her one more time to be sure she wasn't hallucinating. “I meant every single thing that comes out of my mouth, Anna. If you think you are the only one that has power then I'll show you that I also have the power to bring you down.”While they were having their altercation two nurses passed them and they noticed the disagreement between Anna and the nurse that was assigned to her. Immediately Anna notice
The nurse stood at her elevator with her phone still on her hand as her lips felt heavy for her to speak. For a very long time she hasn't seen that kind of figures in her life and at the same time she didn't want to accept extra money from Anna after everything she has said to her. Her jaw was dropped dead with her eyes still staring at her account balance. “I don't want to accept this extra money from Anna. Now, I feel stupid and a feeling of regret keeps racing in my heart for committing to do that silly job for her.” She grumbled with her hands banging on the painted wall. “Who told you that you feel stupid?” One of her colleagues who eaves dropped in her conversation came in front of her with her big body. “Excuse you?” The nurse looked at her face with a questioned look as her hands slipped down her phone into her pocket. She paused for a while to arrange her dress and place a perfect smile on her face before continuing with her speech. “Who are you to ask me that dumb ques
