"Yes. I'm her friend!" Josie replied as she looked straight at the guy only to open her eyes wide in surprise like she had just seen a ghost. "You. . .You. . ." She stuttered."What are you doing here?" He asked."Who are you?" The lady asked him."Why did you allow this lady to come inside? Do you really not know how to act in someone else's house?" He asked, ignoring her question before facing Josie. "You! How did you get here?""I should be asking you that!" Josie snapped. "What are you doing in someone's apartment?""Someone's apartment? Who? She?" He asked pointing to the lady. "Did she tell you that?""I asked you who you are just now." The lady said."Hey! Asher, I still don't understand you. Can't you hear her question?""Do you know him?" The lady asked her."Hey, look here," He referred to the lady. "You don't remember, right? I had to leave my own apartment and spend the night out in a hotel just because of you!""Why did you?" She asked."Because brother asked me to!""Bro

FEW DAYS LATER.York Police Station.Looking out through the window in his office, Jared Nittolo held his family pictures and thought about the memories he had with his sister, years before her accident. He lost his whole family before he was seventeen. His mother died when he was three. His father re-married and also died two years after remarrying. He could barely remember what the man looked like, asides from the pictures he had of him. His step-mother also died unfortunately after giving birth to Annette, his junior sister and he had no choice than to live with their grandmother who also died before Annette turned seven. When his grandmother died, he was left alone to take care of Annette and that was when he luckily met with the Hernandez family. Hannah Oliver; Asher's mother, was a friend of Jared's step-mother and she was the one that helped him in taking care of Annette, the very first time she fell sick after their grandmother died and since then, he had been very close with

Roosevelt Kitchen.Josie dropped Drake that morning with the promise of checking on him some other time before going to work. It wasn't a very busy day at work and although she was used to the fact that Asher was always watching her without doing anything, she felt his absence. He was fond of coming in late but that wasn't a problem to Josie since she would end up doing all the work alone. That very day, he didn't show up at work. Every twenty minutes, Josie would look towards the door waiting for him to come in, but there was no sign of him. After the afternoon course, she gave up on the fact that he would still come.Noticing her, Isabella walked up to her. "Have you tried calling him?" She asked her."Who?" She asked, even though she knew who she was talking about. "Asher." Isabella replied, making a face to show her that she didn't have to pretend not to know who she was talking about."Why should I call him? He should have called me if he wasn't going to come. If we know we'll m

"Congratulations!" Josie shouted as she placed a box on his table. "What's that?" Jared asked."I heard you got promoted as the Team leader, so I came to congratulate you." She explained, smiling. "I brought soup for you too.""To congratulate me?" He asked, looking at what was on his table."Yes!" She replied still smiling."How did you know so fast enough to bring me something? Those that are close to me are not yet aware apart from my juniors. We're not that close yet and besides, I just got promoted this morning.""Is that so?"Folding his arms, he sat back, resting his back on his chair. "You didn't bring that to congratulate me right?"Clearing her throat, she drew the chair in front of her closer and sat down facing him. "You're very fast in catching up with things, Squad lea. . .No. . .team leader Jared.""What is it?""I just need a small favour from you.""Which is?"She hesitated and then sighed, "Asher's number."• • •Josie's ApartmentPacing back and forth in front of h

Flashback."Will you go in with me or wait here with me?" She asked him smiling.Sighing, he turned to look at the rain that was falling and turned to look at her. They had both been at the garden and were returning back home when the rain suddenly started falling. Annette loved the rain and she was fond of playing and dancing in the rain."Will you go in with me or wait here with me?" She asked him again."Fine, I'll go." He replied and immediately, she grabbed his hand. "One, two, three, go!" She shouted as she ran into the rain with him."Hey! Annette!" He called as he followed her, having no other choice. "You'll get wet!""I didn't force you to join me!" She shouted so he could hear as she danced in the rain."Why do you like playing and dancing in the rain like this? Especially when we're together!""Just because!""What's the point of playing and dancing in the rain when you'll catch a cold later when

Few hours later, Josie kept on rolling restlessly on her bed without taking her eyes off her phone. It had been over two hours since Asher alighted from Richard's car and there had been no sign of him returning back. She had the thought that he came down to save her from her brother's question and since he got down few miles away from their apartment, he wasn't supposed to spend more than ten minutes. She tossed her phone up and down as she waited for him to call her. She had called him once that day already, and her pride wouldn't allow her to call him again the second time. I'm not waiting for him, she told herself. I just want to know if he's still coming. Just then, her phone rang making her jump up quickly only for the excitement she felt to melt down quickly as it came. Sighing, she picked it up. "What?" She asked in a down tone. "What?" Isabella's voice sounded at the other end. She had known Josie for a very long time to know why she must have sounded that way. "Hey, Josi

"Chairman Gabriel!" Chazz called him as he stood up to meet him. Rachel Lakes, Chazz's secretary carried Chazz's files too and with a wave of hand, Chairman Gabriel dispersed the two secretaries. "What is it?" He asked him."I was just wondering if you have time to take coffee with me.""Chazz, there are more important things to do than sitting down somewhere with a cup of coffee." He replied like he had already prepared his answer before the question came. "Especially you, you have a lot at hand to take care of. The idea you raised today at the meeting was a very nice one. I like that. But don't just focus alone on our resources going up. Also think about ways we can satisfy our customers with our services."Chazz knew he

Granny's restaurant. Jared and his partners got to the scene but were unable to enter because the attacker had locked the door. Josie was surprised to see the restaurant woman being held in hostage from the glass door. "Aunt!" She shouted before turning to face Jared. "Team leader, please do something!"Jared got a speaker from Michelle and cleared his throat. "This is the police, take it easy and open the door." His voice echoed. Inside, the attacker got angry. "Who called the police?!" He requested. "I said who called the police?!" He shouted at the customers who were turning their face down. "Are you all deaf?!" He asked as he placed the knife on the restaurant woman's neck. "Please, don't kill me." She begged."Do something!" Josie pleaded. Just then, she noticed the other shop beside Granny's restaurant and remembered that their storeroom was linked but separated with just a thin sheet. Quickly, she rushed to find a way to enter.
