It was not just the people who changed, the building too. The infrastructure was different from the one Anna used to know. Including the paint. It was painted blue before but now it was a little touch of white and blue. Sparkling.When Anna stepped into his office, her mouth dropped open as she gulped down roughly. Everything. Has. Fucking. Change.'' God, is this your office?" hands rubbing on the latest glass table contemporary. The fragrance in the office was brain refreshing as well.He smiled, '' Please do have your seat." the only thing that didn't change was his voice. Calm and soft, it was soothing." Thank you," Anna observed around the office while he prepared the documents she would need to get register." I'm really happy you are back," he smiled as he grabbed a pen from the table in front of him. '' Here, read through thoroughly. And sign. Then that would be all." he said.'' Sure.'' She grabbed the pen from his hands, taking her attention back to the documents in her han
Nora opened the door and went straight back into her room without saying a word to Anna. This is it.She has offended the gods, she needs to please the gods to forgive her. Anna knew she isn't quick to anger, but when she gets angry it meant a lot. It meant you should control the way you react or use your words in action. Nora is the last person who could get angry in this world.Taking her shoe off beside the door before reaching Nora's room. The house was empty as though no one was around except her. That reminds me, Nora has only one parent and sadly she's the only child. Anna was the sister and best friend she never had. " Hey, bitch. You never ring me or ping me with a text." Anna grumbled as she dropped off her bag on the table some inches away from the bed." I miss you bitch, don't give me that face please," She hopped into the bed. Dragging the pillow away from Nora, she had been hugging it like a teddy bear. " I bought you, your favourite snack. I'm sorry I spoke to you t
The morning came as a blur. Anna left Nora's house as early as possible, returning back home to get a change of clothes and then get back to the twin building for her training immediately, after she had received another calls from her friend, James.It hadn't been more than five minutes since she read James' text messages. He had given her the good news about her approval of being a participant in the contest.Being over whining that she got confused about what to wear, shattering her wardrobe like a mother hen digging the soil for worms.It would be nice if she go with Nora today, and by the way, she would get the chance to share the good news with her, Anna thought. Picking her phone off of the bed, "Hey, bitch. Do you mind accompanying me to my music class today? " she asked, waiting for Nora's reply. Anna could hear how she was trying to stutter out a reply to her."Uhm- do you mind if I come pick you up? You know I have exams to write. I need to read hard." she said. Though she w
The heart-aching smell of disinfectant pervaded the air in the hospital.Mr Ben was rescued here to the hospital by the neighbour. Anna had just received a call from them about her dad blacking out, out of the blue. Fear gripped her and froze at the spot, she hurried out in a breaking sweat, left her rehearsal, at the studio, running swiftly to the said hospital." Dad!" she pushed the emergency door open, Anna's cheek was so reddish and heavy, she was fighting back the tears threatening to roll down her cheek, she wasn't expecting this sudden sad news tall." Please stay outside, we have to check on him" the nurse shove her out of the room, other nurses attending to him in the emergency ward." What is wrong with him? What happened this time?" Anna asked the neighbour sitting out the door of the room, shaking at the expense of seeing him collapse that way." I don't know, I heard him screaming from my room. I ran to check what was wrong when I saw him collapse on the floor that way"
The doctor said Mr Ben had quickly responded to medications. She had decided on when to discharge him back home. Nora felt a bit relieved, Mr Ben's smile was coming back on his face. And he smiles more often now. Especially when he smiles and exposed his white cute teeth it is like having breakfast in the morning and getting satisfied for the whole day. Anna on the other hand was happy to see those beautiful smiles on his face again." You should smile often dad, it looks really good on you" she grins and tried hiding her pain.'' Anna you need to go and start backing your things, your suitors would be here soon'' Mr Ben said, after smiling for a while. '' So soon?'' Anna's heart throbbed, her eyes bugged out, she said within herself.'' O_okay dad'' she appeared in her room, slammering the door against herself, falling to the ground shedding tears, Anna knelt beside the threshold, she didn't take note that she wasn't the only one in the room.Nora was there already helping her pack h
They arrived at the estate a bodyguard unlocked the door for Anna, because she seemed to be focused on the beauty of the mansion. Nestled in the woodland, as humble as any rock face in these parts, was a mansion. Its windows were as humble eyes, large to welcome any ray of sun. The mansion was all concrete and tall glass windows that gave a view of the mountains, a chance to relax and take in the changing of the seasons from the comfort of an easy chair.She wowed the moment she stepped out of the car. '' Welcome young madam'' a maid said to her, while she had other assistant maids behind her. She looks like the chief of the maids, and the ones behind her seem inexperienced, unlike her, who has experienced eyes, like someone who has been working here for the past 18 years.'' Anna, please call me Anna. That's my name'' she corrected the middle-aged woman. '' I'm sorry, I can't call you by your name, you are Young master's wife, and I won't be able to bear the consequences of his wrath
She knew another turn of her life had just began, gosh just early in the morning, and she has been summoned by the old man again, the oldest man in the yul's family. Yul's group, the famous and top leading company in the country.Steadily walked across the aisle, fidgeting as though the message sent chills down her spine. She never wanted this, I mean none of them wanted this, but what could she do her father was going to kill himself, if she hasn't accepted.She would never have bore the burden of the heavy heart would bring and forever she would hate herself, if he had committed such terrible thing, and the fault would forever be hers, for not accepting the first and only request Mr Ben had ever asked her. It took her some minutes to climb down the stairs, she quivers and wondered what the old wanted her for now, wasn't what he did yesterday enough? '' Why are you wearing such old fashion clothes!'' his voice sounded frosty, Anna lips didn't fail to shake and went cold. The air a
The old man looked through his window, like he always do, but just some minutes ago, Lucian's car was packed outside, and now it was no longer there or has his old age began to tell on him?. '' Damn it, this boy left again!'' he sneered his teeth.Lucian's saw the iD caller on his phone, as he put the car to a stop in front of the mansion, blue city, another of Yul's house, he usually comes here whenever he needed space alone to think. The old man was calling, he threw the phone into his pocket, and focused on getting the seatbelt off him. The damn phone, rang about 15 times, but the stone hearted boy never took a glance at it. He despised the old man and his deeds. They was another call again, but this time it came along with a picture, and that was a picture of his wife, Anna.'' What? Damn this old man!'' he jumped back in the car, fastened the seat belt, bloody sweat were dripping on his face. '' Not again you old man! What do you want again! I signed the bloody documents already
