One Week Later.
..
Aysel.
★
I stopped in front of the door just as I was about to go in.
The door was opened slightly so I could see the person that was inside.
She was on a call and going all hush tone with her words.
I gummed my body to the wall and leaned my head to the side so I could hear what she was saying.
“I have barely manage to divert their suspicions away from me. Now, they think another person is the spy.”
“Aysel?.. she..”she suddenly spun around and I quickly took my head away.
What the..
I breathed heavily.
“She is still lost in her fantasy world. I guess she doesn’t really know what’s coming for her.”
“Oh, sure. I think we take things slowly with the DRS also. I’m sure they will all be on their guards now and attacking them now might be the wrong move. I suggest we suspend the plan pending the time they will lower their guards so we can catch them unaware.”
“Yes, I know. She is taking the blame. She will have to continue her fantasy stories behind the prison walls. Hahaha..”
I clenched my fist tightly and my teeth vibrated in exasperation.
I shut my eyes, fighting off the spirit that keeps telling me to go in.
Not now..
“I will have to go now.”I moved away from the wall and waited for some minutes before going inside the restroom.
“Oh, hi. It’s the secretary.”I grinned and walked to the sink to wash my hands.
She looks taken aback when she saw me but she did a perfect job in concealing that.
“Miss.. Aysel?”
“Oh, you know my name?. Awnnn.. I feel so honored to have a pretty lady like you know that.”I went to grab the tissue paper and wiped my hands with it.
“Work has been really hectic this week, don’t you think?. Ow, my back hurts.”I stretched out my body.
She stood frozen on the spot with her phone still in her hand.
I smirked.
“What?. Aren’t you going on?”I nudged my head to the toilet.
“No! Don’t tell me you’re getting the pooooh all hard. It’s no problem, go in. What’s this foul smell by the way?. Don’t tell me, miss secretary, you farted?”I shook my head.
“Pish!”I blocked my nostrils with my fingers as I walked past her.
You’re all surrounded, you b! tch.

Adrian’s pov.
“You were all arrogant when you told me you aren’t gonna betray your love for her but.. it’s a pity that you ended up being stabbed in the back instead.”she chuckled.
I wheezed as I looked at her in resentment.
“What the fuck do you think you’re doing here?. How dare you step into my house with those evil legs of yours.”I gritted standing up from the couch I was sitting on.
“I’ll let that pass since you don’t seem to be in the best state of your mind right now.”
“Thinking of it now, you wouldn’t have purchased this house if it weren’t for my help.”she added with a sinister grin.
She came to drop an envelope on the table before me.
“That’s your wedding invitation card. The choice wasn’t yours to make in the first place. I brought you to where you are right now. You’re my dog, so, you should bark exactly how a dog would do when it sees its owner.”

Diana’s pov.
I’ve been locked up here in this forsaken house.
I wasn’t allowed to go out neither receive any visitor.
Now, I know the meaning of hell.
I went down to the stairs and met my mom and Mrs Robinson having a chat.
“Hi, Diana.”mom waved.
I stopped and stared at her.
“Who are you tho?”I asked, keeping on a blank face.
She was astounded.
“Diana.. did you perhaps lost your…”
“I asked you that question because I know for sure that you are not my mother! Seriously?, you wicked woman had me kidnapped, not only that, no, you didn’t stop there. You went ahead to kidnap my happiness from me. Why do you want this marriage exactly?. Is he because he is rich?.. hahaha, I knew that was it. You’ve always been greedy. Adrian is rich also, is it because he is popular?, well, Adrian is popular also!, is it….”tears welled up in my eyes.
“Never mind. That poor man already proposed to me. Can’t you at least act as if you’re after the money and drop this John or whatever his name is from your heart since Adrian has got all the things I figured might have enticed you?.
Life is just so cruel. And, humans are just too greedy. They can do everything to attain their selfish desires and you!, mom, are one of them. What’s money?, why steal my happiness and sanity because of mere papers??.. is money that important?.. is it everything???”I sniveled.
She watched me speechlessly and slowly stood up.
“You had me quarantined in this God forsaken place and, did I saw you smile minutes ago??..”
I scoffed and spun around towards the stairs.
My eyes met with John’s and I hissed before racing the steps up and when I got to where he was, I paused and gazed at him.
“I might just kill myself at this point.”and I ran away, towards the room.

Mrs Robinson.
Clara broke down in tears after Diana left.
She clung tightly to her chest and cried river.
Her tears were just flowing out, freely..
I blinked back my tears and I looked at John.
He took his eyes away from me and descended the remaining stairs then slipped out through the exit.
I bit my lips.
My heart has been shredded into pieces.
I started to regret things right there.
We thought we were doing the right thing..
We didn’t know we were hurting them instead.
But it’s too late to go back now.
Too late.

Kelvin’s pov.
I moved my nose to the contents on the table and sniffed it in.
“Ahhhh…”my eyes became blurry and I raised my head up.
I saw multiple flash of my memories and I held to the table tightly.
I threw my head back and opened my mouth.
“You feel that?”came the excited voice of the boss.
I closed my eyes then re opened it and looked at him.
“If you were to be told to kill the president in this state, you will do so without much thought and impassively.”
I coughed hard and moved my nose to the contents again.
“Yeah. Get addicted to it. I think we are all ready now. We just need the secretary’s go ahead.”
