Into the Unknown

Mila's POV

“Jayden?” I exclaimed. His name sounded a bit familiar, but I couldn't bring myself to remember where I had heard that name. I took a moment to think, but my mind remained blank.

“Aren't you coming?” Jayden said as he stood by the doorway staring at me. I nodded and walked past him.

I stepped on the front porch and raised my head to see a sleek black car. Where is he taking me? I asked myself.

A driver stood by the car door like he was waiting for me to enter. Are you thinking of changing your mind?” Jayden asked.

“No, but this feels sudden. I can't leave my brother here” I said, still hesitant to enter the car.

“Remember, you are doing this for him,” Jayden said, with a low and firm voice. I didn't want to listen to him, but he was telling the truth. Without saying another word I slid into the car.

As we drove off, I found myself staring at Jayden. He sat close to me in silence as I studied his features, and composed expressions. There is somethin

    Twisted Offers Mia’s POV “Mila, Hedda” The director began, folding his hands. “The Management has decided to revise the cast for the movie,” He explained. “Revise the cast?” I repeated, as I gripped the edge of the chair. “Yes, they are making these decisions to accommodate the recent developments and restructuring the roles. So as a result, Mila, you would still be part of the film. But in a supporting role,” he said, looking at me with all seriousness and concern. The Director's office felt suffocating, as I sat stiffly in the chair. The tension felt heavy enough to choke the confidence out of anyone. I gave Hedda a quick glance as she leaned backwards, her face itching with a Mischievous and satisfactory smirk. She had one leg crossed over the other, exerting her aura in the room. I tried to focus on the director, but her presence felt like a thick shadow pressing me down. “Supporting role?” I exclaimed, trying to process his words. They hit me like a punch to the gut. My

    Paths crossMila’s POV “What do I do now?” I asked myself as I tried to come up with a plan to tackle all these matters arising. I wasn't sure if Dolph had backed down completely or if he was planning something new.Secondly, I didn't know who this text was from. The only thing I had gotten straight was reuniting with my siblings. Outside that, I still had countless unanswered questions roaming in my mind. I dragged myself out of bed and headed for the shower. I needed a hot bath; maybe it could clear up the fog in my mind. The moment the steaming hot water touched my body, it brought a feeling of warmth and temporary relief to the aching thoughts that lay heavy in my mind.A few minutes later, I finished my refreshing shower and decided to do my hair. Sitting in front of the mirror, I saw the reflection of a broken soul, the unending cries for fulfillment and a better life. I sat there staring at my reflection, lost deeply in thoughts. But before I could pull myself out of such t

    Evil mastermind. Hedda's POV“Mila doesn't belong in this world of fame and power,” I said as I sipped my glass of wine. This world of elegance, power, and fame was all mine. And I can't let anybody take this world away from me. Including that riffraff, Mila. As I scrolled through my phone, I felt immense satisfaction flow through me. “Mila Thomas stepped down from a lead role, due to a controversy swirl” the headlines read boldly on every blog on social media. The managers were so gullible, how easy it was to change their perception of Mila. And make them take such merciless actions towards her. I couldn't believe how fast she had risen to the ranks like she was some kind of movie star. It was irritating to even think about. “Pathetic!” I yelled, setting my phone aside. Mila was nothing but a stray that Jayden picked up and polished. Throwing her into the spotlight was not enough to hide her inferiority. Seeing her backing in Jayden attention was a slap on my face that I ref

    Revealing secrets. Mila's POV After what felt like an eternity, my stomach reminded me with an aggressive growl that I hadn't eaten anything since that day. I needed to downstairs and eat something. The strength to leave my room came, making me drag my feet down the stairs. The moment I got downstairs, I was greeted by the smell of melted cheese and tomato paste. I scanned the kitchen and saw my siblings, Lila and Jett, with a half-empty box of pizza before them. Jett had a slice midair as I caught him about to stuff his face. “Hey Mila,” Lila said as she looked up. She was surprised to see me. She stared at my puffy eyes and tired expression. “Hey,” I said softly like I was normal, and I didn't cry myself to sleep. Jett turned to me with his mouth full of food. “Hey, do you want some pizza?” He offered, mumbling his words with a full mouth. I gave a small giggle, laughing at his innocence felt good even for a brief moment. “Sure,” I said with a small smile, as I sat close

    Unfinished businessJayden’s POV“Jayden? Are you still there?” Mila’s voice cut through the hallway. I froze for a moment, my fist clenched tightly by my side.As I made my way down the hall, I realized that the past, which I had been trying to bury, was starting to come back to my present. Mila’s voice echoed in my head with the name I had tried not to think about for a long time. Hedda.With anger and fury, I stormed into my study room, slamming the door behind me. The room was a bit dark with only a desk lamp providing a dim illumination around the desk. I placed my hand on the desk, leaning into it and squeezing the edge tightly until my knuckles turned White.I repeatedly echoed Hedda’s name under my breath. Her name left a bitter taste in my mouth. One that I thought I would never imagine.My mind rests with numerous questions. Why now I asked myself. Hedda had never taken defeat, not in business or love; she had a way of gripping onto people's vulnerabilities until she got wha

    More tears.Mila’s POV“No, I won't cry! Not in front of anyone” I yelled at myself as I slammed the front door of the mansion behind me, dashing to my upstairs to my room in a sprint. I need to be alone.“Hey Mila, you are back?” Lila’s voice floated from the other end of the living room, full of warmth and happiness.Without saying a word, entirely ignoring her, I bolted up the stairs. “Hey Mila, what's wrong?” She called out for the second time. I could feel the worry in her voice pulling at me, but I didn't stop.Jett appeared from a corner in the hallway, his face lighting up with a smile as soon as he saw me. But immediately he read the expression on my face, his smile faded into worry and fear. “Mila, are you okay?” He asked with a small voice filled with worry and anxiety.Despite his innocent plea, I didn't stop; I ignored him, too. I kept on walking to my room. I couldn't allow them to see the tears that were threatening to spill over. They were too young to share in my pain
