I wasn’t supposed to be surprised, right? But how dare he try to spread rumors about stealing concerning me? That was far from the truth. I’ll make him regret ever starting such nonsense.“And where do you think Mikky is?” I asked Annie, who was still standing boldly in front of me.“I don’t know. Maybe at the stadium or… maybe,” she paused, acting like she had forgotten something, then smiled like a mad person. “I guess I saw him at the school café when I was coming, but…”I didn’t let her finish. I brushed past her and made a beeline for the school café.She’s going to regret ever starting that rumor about me.As I walked outside, people’s eyes followed me. I ignored them. It wasn’t the first time, and besides, I wasn’t in the mood to entertain their stares.I soon reached the school café and swung the door open. My eyes scanned the room, but Mikky was nowhere to be found. I wondered where he could be.“What is wrong with him?” “What is he looking for?” “I just hope he’s not here

At the Langston Manor. “Jordan! Jordan!” I was in my room straightening out my bed after hours of lying on it when I heard my grandad call urgently from the living room. “What is it grandad?” I yelled out, fluffing up the last of my pillows and throwing it on the head of the bed.“Just hurry up son!” He sounded more than excited and my curiosity got the better of me as I found myself almost slipping on a random rug.I found him leaning from his seat to get a closer view of the TV. I narrowed my eyes as I made my way to him.What was he looking at? Besides important programs or looking up some articles my grandfather hardly did any screen time.“You called for me grandad?” I asked but he didn't respond, he only smiled and pointed a wrinkled finger at what he was watching.My eyes shifted to the program and my jaw instantly dropped. My name was plastered on the screen as the overall best student in all my tests.“No way!” I sounded in disbelief, a hand over my gaping mouth. “This can'

I glanced at my phone one last time to make sure I had gotten the restaurant's address right and this was it.‘Gusto’, a fancy Italian restaurant. I admired its beautiful lighting as I stepped out of the sleek black car and onto the sidewalk. My shoes clicked against the pavement as I walked toward the entrance, trying to shake off the unease. Blameless to admit I was a little nervous.This wasn’t just any meeting, though. I was meeting with my grandfather and his business partner’s daughter. The whole thing felt like too much of a setup, and I wasn’t sure if I was ready for whatever they were trying to pull.I could give anything to be at home right now and not be here but this was my grandfather I was talking about. He already reminded me this morning and I knew better than to pull any stunts, I just had to go along with it.I pushed open the door, and the smell of spices and sizzling food hit me. The restaurant was a mix of elegance and comfort–high taste, cozy food, and a quiet

Candace walked beside me excitedly with an exaggerated grace that I couldn’t help but notice. Everything about her screamed someone who thought she was untouchable, someone who believed the world revolved only around her. But I wasn’t interested. Still, I figured I’d give her a chance—or at least pretend to.Grandad might kill me otherwise. I sighed and slowed my pace seeing as the restaurant was coming into view. "So," I began, glancing at her. "What are your thoughts on our real estate department?"Her face lit up with a wide smile, though it felt more rehearsed than genuine. "Oh, it’s fantastic! Your family has built something truly remarkable.""Right," I said, keeping my tone neutral. "But what do you think about our current strategies for urban expansion? Do you think we should focus on diversifying investments or doubling down on suburban developments?"Her smile faltered for just a second, but it was enough for me to notice. "Well... I think, um, both are important. Don’t y

It was just another ordinary morning when the call came in.I was reviewing some notes for an upcoming project when my phone rang, I wanted to ignore it instantly but I thought otherwise.The number flashing on the screen was one I instantly recognized—our family driver.“Hello?” I answered, already sensing something was off.“Master Jordan,” he responded, his voice tight with urgency. “It’s your grandfather. He collapsed at the office.”My pulse suddenly increased by a hundred percent, pounding at its hardest against my chest, “say that again?”He repeated his words and it hit me like a freight train. “Collapsed? What do you mean? Is he—”“They’ve taken him to City Memorial,” he interrupted my panicking. “I thought you should know.”“Thank you,” I muttered, already grabbing my keys. It felt like all the oxygen in my lungs was running out as I rushed out of my room and made my way downstairs.Grandmother was in the sitting room, engrossed in her knitting. Her calmness felt like a crue

I decided to challenge my teachers for those poor results. I could never imagine that I would come home with such woeful results when it wasn't as though I had not read. Something told me that they had been mixed up and I decided to fight for it. Everywhere I turned was full of various discussions about how the mighty had fallen in their opinion but I didn't care one bit about that because it was just one of those things that one experiences. I stood in front of Mr Braxton's office and knocked. He was the one who was going to handle that for me even if we were not on talking terms due to his newly found attitude, I was going to ensure that I got my results. “Come in.” He said, making me walk in almost immediately. This time I didn't barge in like I used to because I knew that I was already on a tentative scale. “You are here to see me, what a surprise.” he said pretending to be interested in seeing me. How someone could go from 0 to 100° in a split second was very alarming. I had

Walking into the office of the man who I had suddenly come to resent was a huge sacrifice but I had to pay it anyway. "I have spoken to Miss Alice and we've been able to rectify your scores." Mr. Braxton announced immediately he spotted me. I refused to show emotion, lest he took it to mean something else. "However, I believe that if we would be doing something of this nature, I proposed that there would be another testing. It's either that or taking those scores as yours." He said, with an ultimatum in mind. I chuckled softly at his attempt at doing something he considered worthwhile. "So... You want me to resit a test I passed with flying colors for? How cool is that?" I answered rhetorically. "You don't want to resit the test?" He demanded from me, leaving me with a small wicked smile. I leaned over the table and stared right into his eyes. "Oh... I think that you should have already known that." Mr Braxton shot me a matching glare, trying to prove his lack of intimidation

At the Corridor. "Hey, I've been meaning to talk to you for so long." One of my schoolmates called after me as I walked through the corridor. I had already set my plans in motion and was waiting for them to materialize so that I could actualize my dreams even without having to say anything. I turned and raised an eyebrow at her jolly nature. Was I supposed to be happy that she was speaking to me especially after I knew that she had some wicked affiliations with Mikky? "So I was passing through the corridor earlier and overheard that you might be expelled from school because of your bad grades. According to the board anyone who doesn't meet up to standard or has to be advised to withdraw. Have you heard the latest news?" She inquired. A messenger of Doom, that was what she was. I raised another eyebrow at her, she seriously expected me to dive into a conversation with her. "Did he tell you to come to break the news to me?" I replied straight away. She blinked wondering how I

Drumroll, I scanned the table for a dissonance but Mr. Coker's shoulders remained stiff. He hadn't come up with an excuse yet, making me smile at his woeful attempt to make my life miserable. He must have realized by now that I had better things to do with my time than focus it on what he attempted to do rather than what I could do to him in return. "I think they have a problem admitting their faults," I said, smiling a little before sipping my wine. My grandmother turned white at the information, which was expected. She had just lost a long-lost lover, and now the thought that she could have probably lost me could make her begin to think in the wrong direction. "Tell me this is not true. How can you even attempt to take a person's life simply because they have not bowed to your whims?" She asked incredulously. Mikky kept glaring at Josh telling me that this was as true as it could get. Guess who was busy recording? Me. I wanted

Josh's eyes rotated around the house, possibly seeking a means of escape, but that was still bad because he was locked in there. Micheal and his father, on the other hand, stood in the place of anger, vibrating on the spot. "I didn't come here to eat. I came here to iron out an issue with you, please do not try to confuse me." My grandmother raised her hand in intervention. "I don't care whatever you came here for because I need us to iron this issue out for so long. If not for anything, for my sake." She interjected, commanding respect from everyone. My grandmother wasn't a pushover, no matter how much the person had. Mr. Coker signaled to his son and both of them walked to the dining table against their will. That was the power of influence my grandmother had. I imagined if my grandfather was still alive. It would have made things easier because he would also have dealt with them in unimaginable ways which would have made them

I moved into my grandfather's mansion the next day because I didn't want to be the target of thieves and hired assassins, according to what I had heard Mr Coker was capable of doing. What he didn't realize was the fact that I was steps ahead of him and he would have to pay through his nose just to effect his bodily harm. My grandmother walked into my room and I knew it was about time we had that discussion I had avoided religiously the past few days. "I have heard the news and seen everything that has gone on the past few days but I purposely refused to say a thing for fear that you might tell me to shut up." I smiled at her entry point. She was skilled at getting me to do whatever she wanted just by tweaking a few things and having me rush to her aid. "Are you serious about this? Uh sincerely would have thought that you were not. I would always listen to you as long as I know you have my best interests at heart. There is no way I am going to ever discard your advice as lon

Annie's calls filled my phone I refused to pick up because I needed to clear the air with the press before having that deep conversation with her especially after everything she had consumed on the internet. I wouldn't blame her for reacting that way. The camera blinked in my sight and I smiled. It was time to fully clear the rumors which had eaten deeply into my mind no matter how much I tried to prove that it hadn't. "Good morning, Wisconsin. My name has been on the lips of many for the past few months and I think it's finally time to address the elephant in the room. I have every right to Sue Mr. Coker for damage of reputation because he has taken it up on himself to become a pain in my butt, respectfully speaking." "My lawyers have also tried to contact him for a long time but he has evaded their calls leading me to doing this at all cost." I began, "I have sufficient evidence with me right here about the messages sent to him and his

The Next morning.I headed to the counter in the police station about to turn myself in since they had not come to arrest me themselves. "Mr Langston Junior." A man called making me turn. He looked like a sergeant. "Right, Sergeant Hudson. Can we discuss this in your office?" I inquired, this wasn't a safe space for us to continue this discussion.He also gazed around realizing what I was running from. With a small smile, he nodded, "Of course, yes, I don't think it would be polite to speak here." We headed into his office together with Josh as my witness and my phone recorder."Please take a seat." He motioned to the chairs opposite him.I felt a certain way by which he motioned to me but I didn't want to take this to heart. Maybe he was only trying to pretend not to have discussed anything with me. "About Mr coker, how far have you gone with your investigation and what have you found? It's already getting too l

I paced outside my house as I contemplated what to say when the pressmen finally arrived. It wasn't going to be an easy deal but I knew I was going to work with that and find the solution abruptly. The sound of the doorbell had me jolting awake as fast as possible. They were here. I decided to have a sit-in conversation with the press because that would be even more comfortable for me to deal with than to undergo the pressure of rushing to do whatever I was told. "I believe that you understand everything that is to happen, right?" I asked Stephanie, one of the crew members, who in turn stopped one of the cameramen. "Mr. Jordan wants to be sure that everything is under control. He hopes that no one has leaked his address to the press." I didn't say a word; instead, I kept on looking at both of them, assessing the situation; if I wasn't pleased with the new development, I could always reach out to a contending news station. "I think we should begin before more stories are put out

"I think we should consider them and not just kick them to the curb. You can't host everything all at once." Josh said tentatively, staring at me after the meeting ended. I didn't think I had anything to say to them besides the fact that they should realize so many things had happened and it was my duty to keep to my grandfather's words. "I don't think I quite follow. If you have anything to say maybe you should go ahead and stop talking in parables." "I mean don't keep on incuring enemies for yourself when you can just give them what they want." He advised. Josh knew nothing about running a business, I guess that it was more like a charity because of the kind of person he was. "What do they want? To take half of the proceeds while doing nothing I'm still expecting me to go on with the wrong figures they have been playing with? Of course, you have all people know that I would not get involved in such stupid matters.""I would rather sit here and find a solution myself than we can

"This is how the plans have been drawn from the beginning and no one dares to change it." I showed them the sketch my grandfather made shortly before his passing. "According to the lines drawn over there, I have seen that he wanted a certain percentage to be given to certain people and not the way you are trying to share this and make us feel like we do not know what we talking about." Mr Beckley spoke up again. I guess I was going to have to read out some of the greedy people. "If you understand the lines pretty well, you would also realize that it leads up to utilizing half of my money. If I spend half of my money getting this contract, how do you suppose I am supposed to share the profits?" I asked with a smile, waiting for him to answer. The answer was pretty evident, but what good would it be if I didn't make them understand that they were only trying to make money off this without having any long-term plans? I, who had one, was going to cash out of this and get all that I co

The Draft. I stood before the podium the next day, addressing my partners, "Good morning, everyone; I have received the news of the scandals circulating the blogs, and I must ensure that my partners also understand that this is not something I wanted to happen." I began.A few elderly copartners looked at one another, not expecting the line of conversation my statement was taking. If there was anything I had learned from my grandfather, it was to be in control of every situation I found myself so therein lay true strength. If I shook just one big blow, then I probably didn't have what it took to rule over people who were ready to take me out. A few people couldn't bear my nonchalant statement and decided to murmur. "If anyone has anything to say, I think this is the best time to address it, or we remain silent after," I mentioned. Not everyone was entitled to explanations, especially on my end, because I had a lot to deal with, which included just staying away and fighting my batt
