Wanna find out? Yallah!! —----------- “I didn't do it- I didn't do it” the voice repeated in distress. She move in that direction. “Who's there?” Debbie asked getting all sweaty,she couldn't help but be drawn to the voice. She moved closer to see a manly figure shaking. He was facing the walls so she couldn't see his face. “I didn't do it, please stop leave me alone!” Alex cries to himself dragging his hair and cutting himself. Debbie fearfully shifts backwards but stood wondering why he was acting unstable. “Hey,just calm down okay you are fine” Debbie said softly moving closer to him having no idea why she's doing this.
View MoreKate had stormed out of the house, Apparently Debbie tried to convince her to forgive Dante but she declined and they had one hell of an argument. Right now she's in the middle of a class but staring into space fighting with her thoughts.She had decided not to come to school today,so she could spend time with her sister but that got squashed. She sighs as feeling of guilt settles within her.“ Hey! What's wrong? You've been sighing countlessly, I thought you'd not be coming today. How's Debbie?” Camile asked in a whispery tone, Kate informed her about the incident. Surprisingly no hate videos or news about her on the internet, Someone must have taken it down. Alex!.Camile the internet goddess would have been the first to sight the video. “ She's at home, thanks to your brother. I just needed to be somewhere else” Kate mumbled glancing at the lecturer, she definitely didn't prep for this everything just seems so out of place.“ And you decided to waltz in after third period?” She fur
“ Dante” Debbie called out in surprise, “ How did you find this place?” She asked stealing glances at Kate, she looked furious, she could literally pounce on him right now.“ How did you get out?, I just left the station and found out that you've been released. I'm sorry that I couldn't get you out sooner” Dante said, skipping the question she had asked.Kate snarled behind him, “ I felt disappointed, because I was hoping that you'd come for me. But it's okay” Debbie said, a small smile gracing her face.Dante sighs sadly “ it's my fault you got into the mess in the first place, I would do anything to correct that and also to begin our relationship afresh as siblings” he lays out.“ So now you get to decide when we could talk, after all these years. I don't want to have anything to do with you” Kate grits her teeth, and walked away from her siblings.“ Kate, please listen to me” Dante pleads and attempt to follow her, but Debbie stops him. “She has been hopeful for this day but it ne
“ Wha- whatt ” she stutters gawking at his backside, “ Now he has completely lost his mind, why would I ever agree to marrying him” she thought to herself. Alex clears his throat, breaking her out of her reverie “ You don't have to worry, I've gotten a contract here for you to go through and sign” that's when Debbie took notice of the black file he held.He handed the document to her “No sexual entanglement, just few acts while we're in the midst of our family” giving her hints of the drafted contract.“ Thanks for the offer but I don't want to have anything to do with you. I'll arrange for a lawyer” she stated returning the file. “ Your lawyer won't do you any good, you're only risking your life and that of your sister's by proving stubborn.” Debbie creased her brows at his utterance. “ What do you mean by that?” She asked, “ Your sister is left to fend for herself while you're stuck her. Someone's trying to ruin you” he warned, his eyes darting across the walls.“ You need me jus
“ How long have you been there? You didn't have to leave your room” Jace asked while scolding him. Alex scoffs and groans in pain as he takes a step forward.“ I've been standing here long enough to have heard everything you all said” he glanced at Kate, “ You shouldn't address that cage as my room” his eyes darkened at Jace.“ Mr Alex, please I really need your help” Kate sniffed, dragging Alex's attention. “I meant everything I said, I don't go back on my word. Go home Kate.” Alex reassured.Kate hugged him without thinking “ Thank you so much idol” feeling genuinely grateful for his help. She disengaged from the hug and apologized immediately, she left the hospital with Zara after saying their goodbyes.“I didn't want to say anything in front of Kate and Zara, but you're still recovering Alex. You can't be walking around with a bandage strapped around you.” Jace said, hint of concern in his tone.“ I'm perfectly fine Jace, how many times do I have to say it” he sighs in exhaustion.
“ I haven't done anything” she muttered glancing at the number of officers, who had their guns pointed towards her.The hallway swamped with workers who came to observe the scene. Murmuring filled the air and Debbie looked scared as hell. “ Your hands behind your back ma'am” The police officer repeated.Debbie dropped the bag roughly to the ground, revealing the stashed cash. She went down on her knees with her hands bent backwards, she felt cold sweat course through her body immediately she was handcuffed.She was directed by the officer to the exit door, Tears stream down her eyes “ Why am I been arrested ?” Her voice betraying her. “ Dante! Dante!!” She yelled at the top of her voice.“Please help me call my brother, I've done nothing wrong” she pleads to the workers along the way.Dante rush forward on hearing the commotion, shock and confusion mask his expression “ What's going on here?” He asked breathing heavily from all the running.“ You can follow us to the station” The offi
“ I haven't even called Camile to ask about Alex” Debbie uttered in fear, “ Don't worry sis I already called her, her phone was switched off initially. She said that he hasn't woken up yet” Kate muttered.“ I don't understand why anyone would attempt to kill him” sadness engulf Kate as she recall the accident.“ He will be fine, there were a lot of people at the event yesterday it could be anyone. What I don't understand is my triggers, another nightmare last night something is definitely wrong” Debbie mumbled exhaling deeply.“ It might have been because of Mr Alex's accident” she stated “ Yeah I know that, but why, the other day when the news of his father's death came up I also had an attack. Is there something I'm missing? For years I've been fighting this, I'm completely exhausted” Debbie said thinking really hard but nothing came up.“Take it easy sis, I don't want you to get hurt maybe it's not yet time to unravel that part of your life” Kate reasoned with her and embraced her
At this very moment the news of the accident, had spread out across the country. The city went as quiet as a cemetery to the saddened attack, many prayed for his quick recovery dropping different prayer messages on the internet. It's the break of dawn, still nothing has been heard. “ Camile you don't look so good, please go home. I'll send you a text immediately Alex wakes up” Candice begged for the umpteenth time. Candice,Camile,Jace, Zara,Debbie and Kate had all rushed unconscious Alex to the central hospital in Los Angeles last night. Debbie looked like she could have an attack at any minute seemingly because of her fragile state and she happened to be right in front of him when the accident happened. Everyone looked worried sick and in tears, hoping for a miracle to happen. Kate sensed her sister's countenance, she took her home but informed Camile before leaving giving her reassuring talks that nothing bad would happen to Alex. They left afterwards with Zara. Jace had to leav
Debbie left the restroom and walked hastily to meet up with the girls, she bumps into Tyson “Oh I'm so sorry” Tyson apologized, he squints his eyes trying to remember where he had seen her.“ You're the lady I met at Alex's company, I never forget a pretty face” Tyson smiled, his eyes ogling at Debbie's body.Debbie moved back rubbing her throbbing head, “ Yeah thanks” she muttered. “You're here alone?” He asked looking around for anyone who was waiting for her.“ No, if you would excuse me” she said intending to walk past him,the conversation seems to be going to a path she wouldn't like.“Would you be so kind to have a dance with me?” He asked taking hold of her hand inappropriately. Debbie felt uncomfortable with his touch.“ I told you that I'm not alone” she said calmly trying to not make a scene. “ She's my date Tyson, take your hands off her” Alex's voice boomed.Debbie just stood stunned, she just wanted to get away from this pervert and if she has to play along with Alex the
“Who are you talking about?” Kate asked, and looked back at their direction “ Sis! Could this day get any better, I get to meet my idol twice in a row” she gushed, totally forgetting her inquiry.“Yeah right, I need a drink” Debbie said walking slowly to the bar, she could feel the different pair of eyes on her. “ I should have just push through with my first choice, just a black long gown at least no one would look at me” she mumbled under her breath.The bartender smiled at her “ I need bourbon whiskey, thanks” she ordered and he went on to get it.She turned to Alex's direction and his eyes mirrored hers, he seems to be in a conversation with few business partners but his full attention is on Debbie. His eyes didn't leave her for a second until his siblings arrive diverting his attention and greets him only Camile did, Candice looks more like he was dragged to come.She took her time to look closely at his outfit, from his neatly trimmed beards, to his jet black hair, to his well i
DEBBIE'S APARTMENT Whimpering sound of a lady in a small room could be heard with the lights off, sobbing increasing at each minute. Still in her sleep “Ahhh!” Debbie screams jolting out of her dream,beads of sweat on her forehead.She sat up immediately on her bed using both hands to cover her face”i can't live like this“ she said amidst her tears. Her junior sister barges into the room upon hearing her scream “sis what's wrong are you okay?”kate asked worriedly.“It's 3am for fûck sake how can I be okay,when I keep getting this nightmares”she croaked. “It's going to be fine sis” kate cooed and sat on the bed giving her a hug and rubbing her back. After a while they both fell asleep in each others arms till the break of dawn.“Kate!! Come down for breakfast” Debbie calls out to her sister. “just a minute sis” she answered, Kate walks to the dinner and drops her books on the table, debbie groans “c'mon I called you here to eat not to read books,you can do this later” she whined.
