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. Kate chuckles “I wasn't planning on reading em now and I just checked my email I got a scholarship into PRIMEVILLE COLLEGE”she squealed. “Omg!! that's great news am so proud of you Kat” Debbie answered happily “come on let's eat before the food gets cold” she added. Kate looked at her sister with a warm smile and sighed she knew it wouldn't have been easy to get money for her fees into the college and it's her first year. So she applied for a scholarship and lucky she got in,she doesn't wanna burden her sis. She's already been through a lot.“Sis how do you feel” Kate asked. Debbie looks up from her meal and gave a short smile “I'm thrilled never doubted your-” “Am not talking about that,I meant about your nightmares” she cuts in. Debbie smile drops and she sighs “Same old thing they always appear blur and i don't even know what they mean, or what to do. it's been eight years now kat, the same period mom and dad died” Debbie answered sadly. Kate stretched out her hand to hold her sister's hand giving it a comforting squeeze “be optimistic big sis, everything would be fine” she reassured. Debbie gave her a short smile while nodding her head “Yeah, now come on Zara would be here any moment we need to get to the store”she replied. Almost immediately they heard the sound of the front door opening and closing with preceding footsteps. “ wow just great and here you guys are, relaxed and eating while I ran my ass down here thinking am late”Zara voiced out. Both girls chuckled at Zara complains.“Relax zar,sit and have breakfast with us” Debbie said. Zara rolled her eyes and scoffed “Well I can't say no to food” she replied and sat down to eat. “This taste so good” Zara said with her mouth full with the bacon and eggs. Kate chuckles, “We need to leave I have got paintings to sell guys” Debbie said and grabs her bag they followed and walked out of the house locking the door behind them. Boarded a cab that would take them downtown, cab driver dropped them off and took his cash. “Kate could you open the store for me please” Debbie said. Kate took the keys “sure no problem”she responded. Debbie got a rental that she could use to keep and sell her paintings, that's the only thing she depends on to cater for her and her junior sis needs. “So debs I wanna audition as a model for AJ STYLES company do you think I would get in?” Zara asked. “AJ STYLES? Haven't heard of that” Debbie shrugged. Zara looked at her with wide eyes “WHATT! that's like the biggest clothing and jewelry company, and it's owned by the Jefferson well the youngest billionaire in the country”Zara said dreamily. Debbie rolls her eyes “ so you wanna work there because of him?”she smirked. “what no way,you know I have always wanted to be a model” Zara replied. “ Aren't you guys coming in?” Kate cut in on their Convo. “We are coming” They answered simultaneously, “Anyway you need to see his pictures,you are gonna fall hard! girl” Zara said. Kate chuckles “I don't think sis is ever gonna fall for any guy,she doesn't even have a male friend” Kate said and debbie kicks her butt “what do you mean by that?huh” Debbie asked giving her a glare. “Ouch sis that hurts but you know that I didn't lie” Kate whined touching her ass. Zara laughs “ I just dropped my resume and few of my shoots on their website I hope I get in” Zara said with her fingers crossed. Something she does when she's been optimistic. “Don't worry Zar u will get in” Debbie said with a small smile. Zara has been best friends with Debbie since they were teens, always seen together and she knows about Debbie's episodes. “Thanks b” Zara replied. “I need to read my books now and you guys are distracting me with your talks” Kate said fixing my eyeglasses properly and sitting down by a corner. Both girls rolled their eyes. “Wow you are taking this scholarship serious, congratulations on getting it” Zara chuckled and turned to Debbie “I am sleeping over at your place tonight” she added. “Do you seriously have to ask”debbie said with a bored look. “Good day I would like to buy a painting” A lady walked into the store. Debbie's eyes lit up “Sure come with me” Debbie led the way. “We should get pizza on our way back home” Zara told the focused Kate and she only gave a thumps up, making Zara to shake her head. TORONTO,CANADA A tall imposing figure could be seen under the shower,a knock on the door brings him out of his thoughts. “Who's there?” his baritone voice asked. “Sir it's me jace” Jace voice came uneasy, “I got a call for you” he added. “Kay I will be out soon” he replied. He takes a towel and wraps it around his torso, coming out of the bathroom Jace hands the phone to him,without looking at the caller id puts the phone close to his ears. “Hello” he said. “My boy” he heard the slow cries of his mother,he creased his brows before he could say anything.his phone fell receiving a shocking news.“ Alex, you're not crazy and you're not loosing your mind, okay?” She said soothingly, gathering all the courage she had left to get closer to him.Alex grabbed her hand, holding onto it tightly “ Ah! You're hurting me, please stop this is not you” she whimpered, her hands visibly red.He struggled with himself, shaking his head like he could see things “ No that's not possible, dad can't leave me! No!” A vivid picture of 15yr old Alex, was seen crying profusely. His hand on Debbie's tightened as he continued to visualise on his younger self.Debbie looked at him, he seemed to be having a terrible mental breakdown, she touched his chin with her other hand, her face lowered as she whispers “ Alex, you can make it stop, please I don't wanna lose you too” she breathed out, unable to keep her emotions together.She hugged him to herself and that was all it took for Alex, to regain control “ Debbie” his black orbs finally revealing itself as he stared into her eyes.“ Oh my goodness, I tho
A light knock on the door brought her out of her reverie, “ Ma'am, master Alex, has requested for your presence.” The maid informed.Debbie stood up immediately “ What's going on?” She asked, “ I don't know ma'am but a lady came in with master Candice” she replied.“ Alright, you can leave” She ordered and went into the bathroom to get a quick bath. Few minutes went by, Debbie is dressed in a simple green gown, matching her eye color. She looked conflicted between leaving her hair free or being parked in a bun. “ I've already wasted so much time, I could literally visualise the stoic look from Alex. I hate tardiness my ass” She deepened her voice to sound more like him, she giggled at how silly she was.She smacked her lips and smiled at her reflection on the mirror, her hair neatly combed and bouncing freely on her shoulders. She walked out of the room.“ What are you doing here? You're trying to make me feel bad about ignoring you, huh? You look so dishevelled. Even Candice,he lo
“ Is any of these part of the plan?” Debbie asked in a whispery tone, her eyes fixed on Alex as he looked outside the window.He turned to her direction, “ No, definitely didn't expect mother dearest arrive, she made such a grand entrance. ” his head rested back on the car seat.“ Where are we going to?” She whispered once more.“ It's just us in here, why are you whispering?” he questions a bit amused, “ We're heading to my home” he sighed heavily.“ She looks extremely young and beautiful but yet tough. I lost my ability to breathe as she spoke so firmly back there.” she shuddered“ Yeah, she's like that, I admire her secretly. But you have got nothing to worry, she's a sweetheart and you'd bond really well with her” He chuckled and Debbie released the tension she felt as a light smile graced her face.Fleet of cars lined up waiting to pass security, Debbie's face craned up wondering what the hold up was about, before her eyes was a giant wall, an impenetrable one. Her car was ne
“ Camile, I'm gonna thank him later. I'm feeling very uncomfortable in this dress, you couldn't find anything better for me to wear and if Candice sees me dressed like this, he might think I'm trying to gain his attention.” Kate tried reasoning with her.Kate couldn't keep her hands off it, the sorry excuse of a gown just left her milky thick thighs bare, it made her feel self-conscious of herself and against preying eyes. She's used to maxi gowns and skirts, that way people would pay less attention to the nerdy girl.Camile glanced at the sleeveless mini gown, with an exposed back “ You look hot babes” she complemented, “ Well, you've no interest in wooing my brother or any other male figure in this house. Let them think whatever” She rolled her eyes “ We're right in front of his room, a simple thank you would do and I'd drive you home” she shrugged, gesturing her eyes to Candice's room.“ What the fûck is this” She looked at her phone and then at Kate, “ I think I'm loosing my sigh
Debbie's eyes followed his movement, he opened the box and withdrew a ring, a piece unlike anything she has ever seen. It glowed so brightly and Debbie's eyes flickered at it immense beauty.Alex took her hand, placed the ring in her finger and caressed it “ It fits perfectly” they mumbled simultaneously and gazed at each other for a good number of minutes.He straightened himself up and leaned back on the seat, “ You understand that this has to be done, drastic measures calls for drastic decisions” His hands balled into a fist.Debbie subconsciously grazed the diamond ring, “ Yes, I understand” She answered firmly and glanced back at Alex's wears, a matching color to her gown, he looked handsome as ever with loosed buttons on his shirt.“Boss, we're here” The stoic driver informed through a see-through window in the car, he closed the window afterwards.They can already hear the murmurings, people whispering in anticipation to the guest that just drove in, nothing is visible to their
“ Cam, I thought I was dead” Kate uttered with quivered lips, her face etched in fear, Camile's arms wrapped around her as a means of comfort.“ I was scared to death, it was terrifying Camile” She cried profusely, her face all red and puffy.“ It's okay, everything is fine. Nothing happened to you, the doctor said you were in shock. Could you recognize anyone of ‘em ?” She asked.“ No, it was dark” she sniffed, “ it doesn't matter anyway, I'm just glad you're fine” she pulled Kate closer to her chest.“ Whose room is this?” Her eyes scanned the dark theme.“ It's Candice's room” Camile responded, “ He took you out of there just in time” She breathed out, her thoughts reeled on what would've happened if Candice didn't go back in.Kate sighed “ Why does he do it? He saves me and the next minute he acts like I disgust him, I don't understand” she muttered to herself.“ What did you say?” Camile looked down at her, their bodies entangled, “ I should thank him, he has been my knight in a
