The sun adorned the sky that day as if it were a wishing well of molten gold.Dustin's good mood wasn't bright sun, yet the kind of rays that awaken the colors of the day at dawn. It was a soft happy vibe, gentle and steady. He walked back into the hospital after a long while had passed.Laura was back. She came out and made her presence noticed. “The doctor is true. We should wait for a while for the test result to come out.” She announced. She came to seat beside her mother and Dustin. Then she frowned at her mother and whispered something in her ear.“Fine..if that's what you think anyway! I'll leave and be right back!” She said. She looked angry but she walked away.“What did you say to her!” Dustin said smiling.“Well you don't worry. I just wanted to have some alone time with you.that's all.” She said..seeing that Dustin was smiling, she smiled as well.“Remember that your mom is always hot tempered.? You know that day when you exclaimed that you needed to head out for a meeti
Dustin still admired the view. It was at least 2:30 pm and everywhere was still so bright and lively.The sun nestled herself in a blue-daisy sky, as if born in a mane of petals. The bright fiery ball, that daughter of the sky, once again took her rightful place on the horizon. She let her rays cascade onto the world, bringing the scene into full view, adjusting the brightness and contrast.He was about to leave after Laura and her mother had been long gone, when he remembered he needed to get something from the store.“Hello sir, I'm looking for a store around. Do you happen to know if I can find any close by?” Dustin asked one man with a nice face just around the corner.“There's a store just around the corner here.” the man replied to him.“Thank you sir.” Dustin said and went on about his way. It didn't take long before he was able to locate the store, a small mini mart.Just inside, he heard a commotion. “Hey, you stole this! You shameless woman!” The store owner said. He was so
They were in the doctor's office now, one Dustin had managed to arrange behind Laura's back. “From all the tests results we've done all together, we can say that you are as free as a bird. No complications whatsoever.” The doctor said.“No complications? That means you're healed?” Dustin said to her. He had a feeling that she was lying about so many things.Laura gulped in. “Of course I'm healed. I took some medications and I've been following up strictly with my doctor! Dustin, don't you get it? This is good news!” She said excitedly.“I'd say!” Dustin said trying to match her level of excitement. Then a smirk appeared on his lips as the doctor went further on to add.“But I'm afraid with no complications at all, it also signified that there is no bang growing in your womb. You're not pregnant, miss.”Laura felt like she would die of heart attack. Then she realized…“Wait, what? Pregnant? Did you do another pregnancy test, Dustin?. Lying to me that it was a general check up test!?”
Alara was at work when she was told there was someone who wanted go visit her. With a frown on her face, she asked the man before her. “But I'm not attending to anyone again today. Who's that?” “He says he's Ezra, but I don't really know because the young master Ezra I know is always well dressed and looks charismatic.” The man said.“So this one looks different?” Alara asked and he nodded.“Oh yes that's what I noticed ma'am.” the man said“Okay just let him in then.” Alara said. Soon enough, the tall and slender man, Ezra walked in. He took his seat and was smiling now. “What?” Alara frowned. “There's no need tor me to be respectful towards you now since you're practically trying to kill Dustin!” She said still frowning.Ezra chuckled. “is that what you think? Wow. I am a little bit offended. But I can't really say you're lying.”“Why have you come here? What can I do for you?” Alara asked. “As you can see, I'm out of jail. I can do whatever I want to do. Even if your dear Dus
That evening, Mathew was waiting for someone. He had been feeling nervous ever since he was introduced to the man. But he had no choice now. It was a matter of survival.Finally, someone walked over to him. “If you wish to see the young master Ezra now, follow me.” He said to him.Mathew nodded. “Of course.” Then he followed the man.When they were inside already, he was ordered to take his seat. Someone was seated beside him…someone he instantly recognized.“Hi, aren't you Dustin's friend?? Tom! Alara had mentioned you before–” Mathew was still saying but was rudely cut off by Tom.“Ex friend. That son of a bitch who won't help his friends is not my friend. He can never be my friend as a matter of fact.” He said.“Well whatever. Just tell me you have good news and Dustin has found his ticket to the party already.” Ezra said rather calmly. “You don't look too confident. Is it that you don't trust this detective here?” Tom asked.“Well that's not it. It's Dustin I don't trust. Look at
“I demand to see your manager!” Dustin said angrily. The sales attendant saw him as being rude and decided not to respect him.Besides, she knew Ezra as Young master Ezra. “Can you belive him, sir! Who is he to demand to see the manager!” She yelled in a mocking tone.Ezra laughed. “Just call these security guards now and take him away! He's a thief who goes around deceiving people.” Ezra said, trying to act convincing. “This is madness! I don't think I have to remind you, but you're wasting my time. And what do you think your boss would say when you treat me like this, huh?” Dustin's patient was wearing thin.Ezra’s laugh was a roar. “Are you going to mind this coward! He's pretending, trying to scare you. Don't listen to him. Call in the security already!” “Security!” The lady called out. Two hefty men on uniforms walked it. “This man is a liar, kick him out. If he struggles, don't hesitate to show him who is the real boss.” she said with a wicked smile playing on her lips.“Let m
Dustin and Alara were seated opposite to each other in Dustin's office. It was almost their closing hour time.“This is so annoying, sir. Ezra is getting out of hand! We need to do something about it, else, he would keep on messing things up and acting foolish wherever he goes!” She said angrily Dustin could see the anger in her eyes and even in her words. Alara did not just get angry suddenly. But Ezra has really been annoying enough.“I know. This is getting out of hand, really. But I don't understand something. When was the last time you've heard from Mathew? It's like he has really shut them all up. Tom, Mathew. None of them have tried to contact me all this while. Even after my last encounter with Tom.” Dustin recalled and said to Alara.She listened patiently, nodding her head as if trying to relate. Maybe it was because she could relate.“Then it means that he's planning something really big. Or maybe he just doesn't know what to do at the moment and he's keeping quiet.” Alara
At the party, Dustin had prepared everything Paula said she would need. His dressing was top notch and he had with him his invitation already. He arrived at the venue and to his surprise, it was really an expensive party with famous and influential guests from all over the place!He walked in and saw there was a short line where people stood. “I should stay here too,” he thought to himself. Then went along to stay on the line.Someone he was familiar with was the one in front of the line. He paused, trying to remember the name of that person, then finally said, “Hey Chris. Remember me?” The Chris was a tall slender man with blue eyes. He turned back and saw that it was someone he knew. “Wait, Dustin? Wow it's so good to see you here. What are you doing here?” he asked.Dustin was about to talk but frowned seeing that Chris was still with his girlfriend. Mandy.Mandy was so sassy and hated him to the very core because he was poor. He didn't understand why she would be like that.“Oh h
