JealousyBrian felt disappointed, his effort was for nothing he used to be cool with everything Samantha did to him but now things are changing.“Did you win the lottery or something?” Catherine asked as she hugged her friend.“Even better but I'll tell you over the meal”. Samantha said assuringly.The three of them piled into Catherine’s car and she drove them to her favorite restaurant.While they waited for their food, Catherine and Samantha chatted about their day and ignored Brian but when their drinks arrived Samantha finally announced the news.“Today,” she said, "I was approached by the head of the organization, they have a new subsidiary called Saka Tosh Tech. He likes the work I've done so far and he asked me to take over as the CEO of Saka Tosh Tech.Catherine was overjoyed “You don't mean it! That's great! In other words, you're the big boss now!Samantha’s eyes sparkled “Oh yes I am”.“But what about your current position, it's pretty stable and I thought you like it,” Ca

The party crashers “So what's your monthly salary going to be,” Sofia asked.“ That's still under negotiation,” Samantha thought.Brian finally spoke up” The CEO salary is calculated as the percentage of the company’s earnings and everyone knows this” he chuckled. “It's somewhere around two million dollars a year.Sofia’s mouth fell out in disbelief “Two million a year?! I don't believe she could ever come across that kind of money! If my husband could get his hands on such a large amount of money, we could buy ourselves a new luxury car every year with that kind of car” she thought desperately.She looked from Samantha to Thomas ``This has got to be a joke” she said growing more angry with every word she spoke" You are lying to me! And you just think I'm a fool to fall for this hun it's obvious that you're just having fun at my expense. Well, who cares about Madison’s family any way she turned and ran out of the restaurant.“Sofia!!” Thomas called as he chased after her. The restaur

The leachBrian handed her a basket full of soap and lotions “ Samantha and I picked this up for you” he said. Brenda clicked her tongue “Why are you giving me a present, I am your mother I should be the one giving you a present, I'll tell you what, why don't you take the rest of the dumpling home with you tonight”.“Oh okay then,” Brian said, he wasn't eager to spend any more time with Brenda than he had to so he removed his shoes and went straight to the kitchen to see what he could do there.Brenda guided Samantha to the couch acting like her perfect loving mother.Gary looked up from his newspaper “Hi honey” he said, Thomas and Sofia also smiled brightly at her.“Samantha”, mom was so upset when you left, she just couldn't stop thinking about you. We talked so Sofia and I agree that you should move back in, we wouldn't mind sharing our space at all”.“That boy has just been begging me to have you come back,” Brenda said, “ he was so worried that we’d done you wrong”.“That's righ

The surprise “And what would you do?” Samantha said furiously as she held Brian’s arm and headed for the door.“Samantha stop”! Brenda called out, but the only response she got was the slamming of the door as her daughter stormed out of the house.Samantha was crying as she left the house, Brian tried to give her a consoling hug but she shoved him away angrily.“This is all your fault!!” she yelled “We've been married for years now but what do we have to show for it?! My life has been nothing but miserable ever since I met you! We have no house, no car and my family still treats me like dirt and just what did you do when they were bullying me huh? You hid in the kitchen and did nothing.You are completely useless. Do you even love me?!” Seeing the speechless expression on Brian’s face she got into a cab angrily leaving him to find his way home.Brain stood on the sidewalk and rubbed his face” That's not through” he said. “ I wasn't just hiding in the kitchen, I was taking care of th

IgnominyLaura was getting furious and almost couldn't control her anger but Brain just shook his head and pulled her away.“Did you see that?” the salesperson said to no one in particular after Brian and Laura had left the room “Even a seven-hundred-dollar necklace was too much for him. Was I wrong to tell him off?Laura tried to tell Brain that the more expensive jewelry was kept on the store's floor.“ I think when people come down the stairs with the heavy jewelry box other people can look at them enviously,” she thought.“It's kind of like showing off your gown on the red carpet, I just think he knows what he's doing”.Brain and Laura entered the room on the top floor “Are you crazy!” She whispered to him “Even the cheapest stuff here is way more than we can afford.“It's fine, I just wanna look around,” he said. Laura didn't say anything else because she had never even dared to go up there before now.She gaped at the expensive pieces made with twenty-four pure Gold and gemston

The necklace“You need to leave!" he said, trembling in fear”.Brian walked straight past the salesperson and towards the middle-aged man who'd been riding to Laura as soon as they left the store.Before the man could react, Brian swung his fist at him, and his first landed heavily on the man's nose Brian heard an audible gas from the other customers as they all stepped back carefully so as not to annoy him anymore.As he looked at the man holding his hand over his face. He was pleased with his handiwork then he smiled.He turned to the salesperson and said “ I'm going to buy it” he said, pulling his credit card out of his pocket. The salesperson couldn't help but stare at him, his mouth gaped in shock.“Ummm ah yes Right of course” he stammered he startled off to the counter to look for his card reader once he found it, he took Brian's card and put it into the machine then he paused “Thank you, sir, “ he said quietly “ it's all gone through” he added.Struggling to come to terms wit

Detente.“There's more to life than a necklace you know,” she said.“If you really wanna make me happy, get yourself a good job”Why don't you ask your friend for a better one, you don't have to spend your life being a security guard”. She put the necklace down on the table. For the past few years, she'd envied women wearing extravagant necklaces but after marrying a good-for-nothing like Brian, she'd stop dreaming about such things.Luckily the arrival of Catherine saved Brian from defending himself.“Something smells good,” she said as she walked in.“ Your husband may not have any good points but at least he can cook,” she added. Talking about him as if he wasn't in the room she sat down and picked up a fork but she noticed the necklace on the table before she could eat.“ Where'd this come from?” she asked, picking it up and examining it.Samantha rolled her eyes “It's just a necklace” she responded “How can you get so excited about it” She always felt Catherine overreacted when

The jeopardyThe following day Brian left straight after breakfast, the conversation the night before had left him with so many questions and he knew that Jeffery might give him some answers.He found him in the office at a new company, after Jeffery had offered him some coffee they sat down together.“Is the company doing well?” Brian asked, getting straight to the point.“Of course yes “ he responded. “ I don't know how you did it but without you, we won't be where we are today”.Brian had helped him a lot in the past and he was always keen to let him know that he appreciated it.Brian chuckled “ I did have some help,” he said as he winked at the other man “Don't worry it'll all become clear in the future.Jeffrey didn't answer since Brian had always been true to his words so he decided to change the subject.“Samantha is getting a lot of trouble from a customer,” Jeffery said.“ I guess so,” said Brian. What's going on?”. He asked.Jeffrey gave him a brief of the situation and it t

JELOUSYRoss shoved him aside. “You want me to give you another chance? “If I keep providing protection for you and your store, how am I going to explain that to Mr. Maxwell when he finds out? it's best for you to just shut the whole store down at this point, otherwise, next time He comes here, he's going to be offended that you're still here, and then you don't want to offend Mr. Maxwell”. He said to the manager. “I'd laugh if anyone else said that. But if it's what Ross thinks is best that would only mean I'm done for it wasn't easy to get to this point. I thought with Ross providing protection, I could do whatever I wanted. I never thought I would offend someone that even Ross is afraid of”. Ross just looked down at him, “Let me give you one last piece of advice”. He said, “try to be a good person from now on if you know what is good for you”After leaving them all, Laura was in no mood to continue their day out, so she and Brian got in the car to head home.Laura was clearly p

THE MANAGERBrian tilted his head thoughtfully “Ross? he asked.“you're not talking about Ross Gilmore, are you? the same guy I had a little chat with yesterday” he thought.“I think I left quite an impression on him”.“ you know Ross Gilmore?” the manager asked. “You could say that” the manager was surprised but then he saw Laura’s panicked expression clearly showed she had also heard of Ross or at least she knew of his reputation.“that's right,” he said “My shop is under Ross Gilmore’s protection so if you two both get down on your knees and beg for mercy I’ll consider asking for less compensation, otherwise you'll have to beg Ross for mercy” “and at this point, the compensation is the secondary”. he thought. just look how pretty that girl is, Ross, is going to be very happy when he sees her”. many people in the crowd had also heard of Ross and his reputation as a local thug they were not surprised that someone as Petty and nasty as the owner of this store had someone as vici

CHAOS Brian smiled at her but did not comment.The shop manager returned in short order with a Gray scarf draped across his arms. “Go on, Brian, Laura said. “Try it on and see what you think”.She lifted her hand, but the manager turned and held the scarf out of reach. “What?” She asked. “ Aren't you going to let us see it before we buy it?” The manager replied. “You've already seen and handled the other one.Isn't that enough?Except for the color, the two scarves are identical. Come up to the register and I'll get you checked out”.He smiled arrogantly. “They Caused the most trouble”, he thought. “They really need to put their grubby hands all over a genuine branded cashmere scarf.The rich ladies who come in here just point at what they want, pay the bill and leave without any fuss”. Laura's eyes flashed with anger. “Is that how you do business?” She asked. “If you don't try on clothing.How will you know if you like it or not?Maybe we won't like the feel of it.But we won't know until

OUTBURST Laura looked up from her plate of eggs and watched her sister confused. She glanced at Brian, who shrug. “I don't know exactly what's bothering her, but I can guess” he thought. “But I don't wanna talk to Laura about the whole situation with Brandy.That's too much to get into this morning”. “Hey, sis.Did you forget that Brian and I were going out for a fun day today? You should come along.Change your clothes. I'm gonna leave right after breakfast”. “No thanks”, Samantha replied. “I have some important things I need to get done today|”. “Is there anything more?Important than.Quality family time”.Samantha stood up. “You've got Brian, you don't need me”. She left the kitchen.And they heard her bedroom door closed a few seconds later. Gary Wandered into the kitchen, still half asleep.He looked from Laura to Brian. “Where's Samantha?” He asked. “I thought I heard her voice”. “Well, she's not here”, Laura said. “She's having a hissy fit or something”. “Come on Brian, let's

STILL IN LOVE“I'm glad to hear it”, said Brian. “If you'll excuse me”.With that, he walked over to the backstage door. He was determined to see Brandy, and Ross had held him up long enough.He could hear the sound of television through her door, it sounded like a cartoon and you could hear her laughing loudly at it. He Knocked several times before she heard him. “Come in, She shouted once she finally heard his knocking. “Ohh, it's you. Hello”.She walked over and gave him a huge bear hug.She squeezed him so hard he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said eventually. “Are you trying to kill me?” It took him a moment or two to disentangle himself from her grip.“You never change, do you?” He said, his words full of affection.He always spoke to her with the affection of an older brother talking to his favorite sister. Annoyed, Brandy pounded him on the chest.Always hoped that Brandy would stay as innocent as a child, but that was never going to be the case.Uncle Sam had already to

BRIANAs he realized that Brian had seen right through him, anger began to take over.He had a powerful urge to kill him.The slower and more painful death, the better.However, that was something that would have to wait.Murdering Brandy Hall's friend in a busy bar wouldn't win him any popularity contests. It was a plan he would have to save for another day. “Don't be so quick to criticize me”, he said. “You may have gotten away with it this evening, but I will get my revenge on you soon”.“I wouldn't be so sure about that”, said Brian.“But I can be sure”, said Ross, a smile starting to appear on his face. “I have a Big Brother and plenty of friends to help me.Next time you might not find the bartender quite so helpful”.“You're going to hide behind your Big Brother?” Asked Brian. “Why is he someone special?”The door to the bar opened.A man walked in.Ross smiled. his Big Brother had just walked in and his timing couldn't have been better.The man saw Ross and walked over.Ross began to s

THROW HIM OUTRoss was surprised that the bartender knew him, but he certainly wasn't complaining.He knew they had backup when it came to making Brian's life even more miserable than he had hoped. “He's the scruffy man over there”, he said, pointing to Brian's back. “He's trying to go backstage to see Brandy, which surely is a serious offense.My advice is that you have him evicted immediately”. “Well, we could always ask Brandy what she thinks”, said the bartender. “After all, she's the star performer.It's only fair that she should decide if she wants a visitor”.Ross was not impressed it wasn't the answer he had wanted to hear. “However”, continued the bartender, winking at Ross. “If she doesn't want any company, young Rossier gets to decide what to do with the unwanted visitor”.Everyone in the room held their breath, listening very carefully. “What's the punishment?” Ross asked one.Ross smiled. He made a choking gesture to the crowd, much to their delight.A huge cheer went up, sig

CODY’S BAR“Don't worry, maybe Brian will come with me”, said Lynn.Samantha looked at her. “Since when have they had such a good relationship?” She thought.But she didn't bother to ask Laura directly.“What's happening tomorrow?” She asked instead.“I thought you were busy”, said Laura. “But seeing as you're asking, it's a social event organized by the college. I thought you might have wanted to come with me”.She sighed.“If you're busy, I'll ask Brian. he won't mind coming with me. he'll make sure I'm OK”.It's sorted Laura, Take Brian”. Being her brother-in-law, she could go out with him without arousing suspicion.Samantha looked at her suspiciously, not convinced that Brian could keep her sister safe.In her mind, it was almost funny.Much more importantly, she was sure they were keeping something from her.Pretending that nothing was worrying her, she decided to go too, despite the pressures of her job. “I think I'll come too”, she said. “It'll be good to have a break from work”.Sh

UNEXPECTED His friends started to laugh mercilessly.By that time, Samantha was in earshot.When she heard laughter, she relaxed, thinking they had already resolved their differences and made-up.Deciding not to get involved, she stayed out of sight around the corner and listen.Has she gone around the corner, she would have realized that she had gotten it drastically wrong. Brian and Ross were staring at each other. Neither had any intention of backing down.Ross threw his cigarette butts on the ground and stepped on it. “I've had enough of your nonsense. It's time I taught you a lesson.Lesson”. Brian repeated questioningly. “A student?,I don't need to be taught a lesson.I think you've got it the wrong way around”. With that, he stepped forward and landed a blow in Ross' stomach”.Ross doubled up, completely taken aback by the punch.As he struggled to catch his breath, he couldn't believe such an unassuming looking man could be so strong.
