BELONGING TO THE OUTER WORLD
****JANELLE'S POV****
After I had met with the Novato estate agent or manager, whatsoever they call him, I signalled to Steff, for us to go home.
I had surveyed the house very well, and it's just the perfect place for any students to stay, as it's very quiet, and another bonus to the house is the fact that it's so beautiful.
I wasn't bothered of the fact that the lodge, No, I won't literally call it a lodge as that's someone's house. Ohh yeah!!, that reminds me, the estate agent said something about the owner coming back anytime.
Anyways I don't want to be bothered much, since Steff said she hasn't heard that the owner ever came here to stay.
I do hope and pray that by that time, he would have changed his mind, cause I can't imagine staying with a man, at worst, a stranger.
Immediately I thought about him being a stranger, my subconscious mind said, "are you really gonna call him a stranger right now??", Do you really think he's a stranger?.
"Ohh yeah, I do know he's a stranger, cause literally I have never met him in my entire life, so I don't think I know him", I replied back.
"Chubs?,chubs!!!!, Chubs, what are you thinking of, oh yeah I know, you're thinking about the wet life you're gonna live when you resume college"
"WTF are you saying, lady macho, you know I won't ever do what you're thinking of, right now, I feel so blessed of the fact that I won't be staying with you" I said.
"Excuse me!!!!!, What did I just hear you say, I hope am having a dis functional ear, You just called me a lady macho???. I can't believe this.
And for the record let me tell you, for the fact that I won't be staying in your lodge doesn't necessarily mean I won't be with you all the time", Steff replied.
"Please enough with the talks, let's just head straight home, I have no energy left for the argument you're trying to start up now.
God knows, the last thing I'll ever do is to start up a heated argument with you, just look at how full, you're looking, it's only when you eat enough food that you'll be able to have time to argue about things that doesn't matter", I said, feeling so tired.
***JANELLE'S POV***
We later boarded a taxi back to our house, I went home, and met my mum, making Jamaican rum. This is actually the first time hearing about Jamaican rum.
I bet it tastes so good, for it so smell like this. I greeted her and gave her a warm hug, she turned back immediately and asked you of my whereabouts.
"Janeeey, where have you been since morning, I called your best friend, Steff, she said you went to your boyfriend's house.
Baby please tell me it's a joke, tell me what she said was a slip of tongue, I don't wanna believe what she said", she said
Right now I'm damn speechless, Steff, what's the meaning of this nonsense, why did she play this stupid stunt on me.
"Hey mum, calm down, I went nowhere, okay actually, I went somewhere, but mum definitely not my boyfriend's house.
Mum!!!, I have just been here for three months and you think I will be so cheap to run into the arms of a stranger.
Mum think this through, I can't and will never lie to you", I said.
Right now, I feel like if a pin should just pass through my skin, I'm gonna burst, what's the meaning of this, when am trying to gain my mum's trust, she's just making it more hard for me.
"Hey listen, I know you want to feel what it's like to be loved, but baby, this is not the right time, I don't wanna see you get hurt, we're good??"
"Yes mum", I snickered. Her best way of making it clear to me that I must adhere to her words, is by ending the discussion with "we're good?".
"Hey mum, I got an admission at West Indies University, Steff helped in working it out for me. I was so surprised when she told me to prepare, so we would go to the university, just for me to find out, I have been given an admission.
Mum you do remember earlier last month, I had been looking for my highschool credentials, I didn't know she sneaked into the house to get it, mum that girl is a big psycho", I snorted
"Did you just say you went to collect your admission letter, oh baby I'm so sorry, maybe that was her best way of telling me not to bother you.
Babe I know, you're grown up, but you know I've got just you and Diaz, I'm so sorry if I had taken things so serious", she said quietly.
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh mum, don't worry about that I do understand, like you do say, every parents want the best for their children.
So mum, I will always encourage you to be on the lookout for me, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH MUM", after saying that, I hugged her, as I heard her muffling her sob.
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh mum, please not again", I said, we unhugged and she looked piercingly into my eyes.
"Hey kiddo, something else I got for you, you're gonna be entertaining into the outer world, where things are not too nice, I want you to be the best of who you're.
Literally not everyone wanna see you laugh, but remember when you start glowing they're gonna come around.
I want you to promise me you'll be a good girl, huhh", she said, "yes momma, I'll always be.
"Ohhhhh!!!, Such a nice scene we got here", that was Diaz, my younger brother. I quickly took a knife and chased him round the house, threatening to stand him when I get him.
****RASHIDS' POV****
I woke up the next morning, hurriedly took my bath, I just remembered I am having a meeting with the board of directors and shareholders.
Work keeps getting complicated tho, I called Dargok and told him to prepare my car, as I'm gonna have an urgent meeting this morning.
I went downstairs, straight to the dinning table to eat my breakfast, I don't miss breakfast for anything. After I was done eating, I quickly went outside.
What a wonderful morning, I said inwardly.
"Dargok is the car prepared already??", "Yes sir, I was just coming to tell you", he said. "It's alright I'm here already, let's go"
***NOVATO FASHION AND CLOTHING COMPANY***
"So what do you say about that, cause we're waiting for your proposal, as we haven't heard you say a word.
Hope nothing's wrong, since that company has been built, you haven't been there.
Don't you think it's high time you went there, so at least you'll know how things are running there.
"Y'all want me to say something, what do you want me to say, why don't yalla go there instead and send the message across of how the company over there is faring", he groaned.
"As much as you're the owner of this company, that wouldn't make you to counter our opinion, what's theneed of being shareholders if we can't give our opinion of how things should run.
Or do you expect us to fold our hands, while what we've been working for, for ages go down, no we won't, we would be so patient and lenient with you to give you two weeks, just two weeks to travel over there.
Yes if you say you can't and wont, then be ready to run this company solely", one of them said, he turned and asked his fellow shareholders"if they were okay with his verdict", they all nodded their head positively.
"Y'ALL looked for a country to send me to, of all the continents in the world, it's Africa.
Not just Africa, but Jamica, it's not like am belittling the country, butttttt!!", they all said" but what".
He quickly shut his mouth and said, "it's alright, Jamaica I'll definitely go". He was burning with rage, as he slumped on the chair.
He opened his eyes and noticed they were all looking at him, "what is it, y'all can go, the meeting has ended, or do you still want to chase me to Kenya?", He sighed and they all left.
"Tiffany, Tiffany!!!, Tiffany!!?", He was calling on his personal assistant. "Yes sir", she said, as she stared at his slumped state.
"Cancel the appointment I have with Mr Browns, next week, we're gonna be travelling", "sir please hope, you don't mind, if I may ask to where sir?".
"We will be flying to Jamaica, guess you know that place", her face crumbled as she said, "Yes sir".

THE PLOT*****FIONA'S POV*****I quickly covered my mouth, I looked around to check if someone was watching. I decided against opening the mail until I got home.I got down from my car, and swiftly but safely crossed over to the salon. For me, actually this is the best salon ever, where you're sure of the best hair treatment.I wanted something short and curly, I couldn't even remember when last I came here, it's either am too busy or I just feel reluctant to redo my hair.I ain't the obsessed kinda fashion freak, but today I just felt like it's been long since I last made my hair.My mind said it's because of him, but, I just waved it off."Hey Fiona, how are you doing, it's been long as fuck, you just suddenly stopped coming here, any problem?", my friend Selat said."Not exactly dear, I'm just so preoccupied, so I've got no time for myself, and you know am
HER MINISTRATIONS*****JANELLE'S POV*****It's been two weeks since I had been given admission, and my school would be resuming next week, right now I can't say how happy I am.It's not like though I won't miss home, but, I just have to go to school and there will always be breaks."Ouch Steff, what was that for, I don't like this your game of pranks, just stop it, cause right now am not just in the mood.We are still going to shop for our school requirements and our personal need right?, I said not looking at Steff."Yeah chubs, we will definitely do so, and after that we will be going to watch some movies, how about that, sounds great right?", Steff said.I have always known Steff as the highlife kinda person, all time for flexing, I love it tho, cause amma kinda serious person."Hey Macho, when will you stop addres

THE HOOK-UP***FIONA'S POV***It's been a week and six days since I got the mail, and today is the seventh day making it a week.I'm so damn prepared and happy about this meeting, I just can't believe am gonna be meeting him in person, all my life I had always sought his attention but it all went the wrong way.Since I last received the mail, I got another last week, he had asked if I am prepared. Seems like it's the reason behind him not coming to the club for the past two weeks.My heart fluttered at the thought that he was actually trying to impress me. I, on my own did my best to make sure everything goes smoothly.The girls are all happy for me, and kept chattering on how lucky I am. I also felt the same way sincerely.I felt that way, because I have
***MEETING WITH HIM******AAMINAS'POV***I purposely sent my personal maid Amancia out, as much as I trust her, everything has it's own limits, I don't want to be sorry later.As a queen, it's bound for my personal maid to always be with me as a mark of loyalty, but I have to break the rules.I said to myself that not all rules are bound to be kept or obeyed, some are there to be broken.I want to go somewhere, I want to meet him, it really has been so long, he might be mad at me, yes definitely, he has such huge temper.As a woman, I know what men want, I know what they are after, I know what they can't resist, and you know what they can't resist, they can't resist a free sex.As much as he tries to act like he's not addicted to me , i know somewhere that he loves all I have to offer him and also more.I know that men don't just like women that gives free sex, but a woman who's submissive in bed, that is the only cure to hi
MAKING A SKETCH OF HIM****JANELLE'S POV****Ohhhh my, who is that guy, I asked myself. He looks familiar, I guess I had seen him somewhere but I just can't remember where I saw.Will it be in my dreams??, I heaved a sigh of frustration, cause I can't seem to recollect where I saw him. It must be in my dreams or somewhat in my imaginations. I guess so.Our gazes had met, he looked at me like though we had met somewhere, click click!!!, He has been the one haunting me in my dreams.Gawdddddd!!!!, I sighed in frustration why it had taken me so long to remember that.If he was able to haunt me in my dreams, I wonder the effect he's gonna have on me.Those words, yeah, they all now make a huge big sense to me, they came hitting back at me, the words of the Voodoo woman."""""IN YOUR DREAMS, HE HAUNTS YOU. FATE IS GONNA BRING HIM TO YOU AGAINST HIS DECISIONS, WHEN YOU SEE HIM, YA DEFINITELY WILL KNOW, DO NOT FIGHT
STARTING OVER****RASHIDS'POV****It's a Monday morning, typical Monday. I remembered how it is on a Monday morning in Qatar.Everywhere would be so noisy, but due to the fact it's an estate and also very close to a college, no noise could be heard.This is one thing I love over Qatar, maybe more are yet to come, I remembered the reason I came here and hurriedly but grumpily stood up from bed.It's gonna be a long day tho, I could feel it in my bone marrows, I looked up and checked the time, shit it's late.That was like half past ten, I overslept,maybe it's because of the flight, but my subconscious mind said," or maybe, it's because of the pretty young lady you were thinking about, check the proof". "what proof?", I said to myself, look down, my subconscious mind said.. Ohh shit, I was damn aroused, I could see my precum staining my boxer, it had form a tent down there, this isn't
THE UNKNOWN MASTERMIND****AAMINA'S POV****I smiled as I listened to all they were saying, I guess I was right, I had in mind that Floyd my ex-husband never died.Amancia had deliberately made the Emir believe that she has gotten over him and he's dead.That man is a dog, I wished things could run faster, but I guess this is just the best, I will be so patient enough to see them going down slowly without knowing what struck them.I suffered for this man, I went through a lot because of him, I sacrificed myself just for his happiness.The love I gave him was raw and undiluted love, like a newly tapped wine, yet he had the effrontery to turn his back on me.He's gonna suffer because of this, and when he finally goes down, I will make sure that the Queen goes down with him, let her feel my pains.****Flashback****After my husband died, which was on on the 1st of September, 1996. I decided to av
