Kelvin’s POVWe were all sitting at the dining.Mum, me. Olivia. Rosa.Rosa's face was just buried in her palm and… and I felt I don’t know, bad? for her.“So…” she dropped down her hand. “ So I’m like, adopted?” She asked still all teary. I rolled my eyes.How many explanation does she still need to understand? Why does she keep asking this again?“Oh No baby. Didn’t you hear what I said.You’re not adopted. Yeah maybe your dad is not Kevin’s dad.I’m Kevin’s mum but not your mum, but you’re not....”“It’s the same thing! I can’t believe I’m adopted!” she slammed her palm on the table on every word she said.Hmmn.“Look baby, it doesn’t change anything.” Mum placed her hand on Rosa's staring at her deeply.“You are my daughter. Okay!” she said. But Rosa took her hand off.“Oh God, I’m adopted… and no one told me.Kelvin knew! I’m sure you people were laughing at me behind my back.” She whimpered. I rolled my eyes and sighed deeply causing mum to stare at me briefly with anger in her
Rosario's POVI dressed up hurriedly after bathing for the first time since I came back from school.I took my small waist bag and put my phone in it and soundlessly opened the door of my room.I walked to the kitchen silently. Okay I wasn’t snaking out though but…I walked to the kitchen and turned on the light and made to walk out only to see mum by the other entrance.I froze in a spot.“Rosa where are you going this late?” She asked. I gulped nothing down.No matter what, even if she says she isn’t my real mum, I don’t know.I don’t even know how to feel.I just feel worried to think that she never really loved me.Did she?“Why are you asking me.Didn’t you just allow Kelvin go out? You didn’t ask him.” I scoffed.“Kelvin is a man.” She said. I scowled.Okay, why is everyone saying that!!“In my defense, I’m not your daughter.Why do you care… to think that you told me that I’m not your daughter.You never really Loved me?” I pouted.“Oh Rosa don’t be like that.”“no wonder you n
Third Person Narrative.Victor Lee walked into his house.His dad, the principal and owner of Iridium High was in the sitting room.He walked towards his dad and stood before him.“Dad, good evening.”“Hmmn, how did it go?”“Well, we didn’t find his body.Some wild animals must have taken it.Or maybe he managed to crawl somewhere. But I’m sure he died.People hardly go into that woods, he'd decay there.” Victor replied.“His car?”“sold.”There was a long while of silence.“Why did you do it?” His father asked. He was silent.“I said why did you do it? When I’m talking to you, you answer me!”“I did it for you.Dash has something on you doesn’t he. I overheard your conversation in your office the first day he came to our school.He knows about our past life… does he?And there is something else, something huge.I know Dad.Though I never had any intentions of killing him, but he was standing right in front of me in the woods, and it crossed my mind.All I could think of was you dad.
Rosario's POV“A hospital?” I muttered to myself. What was Manny doing in a hospital?Dash!! It is about Dash, isn’t it?I still don’t understand this whole thing!I came down from the car and followed a reasonable distance behind him.I saw him enter an elevator. I gasped oh no.The moment the elevator closed, I rushed there and pressed on the top button for it to open.It soon opened and I entered and pressed the floor number that was recently visited.As it was about closing someone stopped it and got in.She pressed 2 and I frowned and stared at her.*I reached floor 4 and looked around. This hospital is pretty big to begin with. It has 7 floors.And… this floor looks like an endless circle of passages leading God knows where…Manny was no where around.The floor was just so wide. Many openings and doors.I walked up to the desk in the middle of the place. There was a nurse or doctor there.“Please I’m looking for someone.A guy wearing blue hoodie just passed by here right?” I a
Rosario's POV“I know who you really are.” I said. Dash froze.Okay, why did I have to say that? Was I planning to threaten him? No I wasnt!What do I say next?Uh, should I say ' I’ll tell people about you'… no, it doesn’t make sense! That’s clearly a threat.Besides Dash didn’t commit any crime to be born in such family.I have no right to say that.It’s a threat because if people know he is from that family, he will only get stigmatized for his family's bad reputation.Not to talk of his family's many enemies.I shouldn’t ever say that even in the future too. He’ll be hurt.He faced me looking scared. Wait, did I scare him?I made Dash scared? So he does get scared?What do I say next?“So, please don’t press charges against Kelvin.” I said. He stared at me weirdly after that.I thought he was never gonna talk because… we were just staring at each other.For a pretty long ttim, I wasn’t looking away. I wouldn’t let myself get intimidated.“Time up.” He suddenly looked like he want
Rosario's POVJust then his lips moved.“What are you doing?”“Arrrrs!” I gasped and made to stand at once.But it was like something was holding my hand and pulled me back down taking me off guard and my lips accidentally crashed on his.My eyes widened in shock and his eyes opened.Oh shit! Oh shit! Oh shit!I stayed frozen for a second, staring into his blue eyes… they were no longer calm.Wait, was this real? Was this happening?I raised my head up a little staring at him.Oh God! This was fucking real.I wanted to stand properly, but same force holding my hand pulled me back down.This time, Dash hands caught my shoulders and held me firmly, preventing me from leaning in his body…What the fuck… wasn’t he the one who pulled me down?I actually thought Dash was the one who held my hand and pulled me down.Slowly, in fright I looked at my hand to see that my jacket hand and got stuck by his bed sides.I shakily unhooked my jacket from his bed still leaning over, on Dash's hand.Jus
Dash POV cont…I hope dad doesn’t figure my plans out though.He probably won’t, we have no business with each other until 3 months For my plans to fully start, I need to erase Rosa from my head.Now that the feelings are not deep.*“is going against your dad because of your sister really worth it?I mean you could get yourself killed if one thing goes wrong.”I clenched my jaw staring at him.“Dont ever mention my sister again in your fucking life!”“Wo? I’m scared for you dude.Is it really worth it.Now that you’ve told me the whole truth about your family.With the rumors of your dad killing his family being true all along. And then he abducted his own daughter.I don’t think he’ll bat a lash in killing you.I don’t think this is a wise idea, maybe you should just do what he wants?”“I… I don’t blame you Manny. You have no idea what it feels like to a have a sister.”“Yeah, you’re right but…If you do what your dad wants and inherit the business, you’d be able to save your siste
Dash POV cont…“Ciao?” I muttered staring at the phone.“Ciao’s been trying to reach me? Why... I thought…”“Ask your girlfriend!She sent me over 99 messages in the space of 2 days.”“What a bitch! What did she say?”“I only read the last one though.But of course she wants to know why she can’t reach you personally for the past 6 months.”I scoffed. Didn’t just block her, I removed the Sim and flushed it down the toilet.Okay, the later wasn’t because of her though.I sighed. God!She is soo unpredictable and… and so buggy. Here I was thinking I’ve gotten rid of her for life!“For the past 6 months, why call you to complain now. She is insane.”I would have said she needs something from me… but I doubt…“Well, it’s because she'd be arriving in America by weekend.” “Oh great.” I scoffed. “I thought she was never coming back from Asia. Or where ever she went!Isn’t that what she said?”I gave him back his phone.“Isn’t that what she said Manny?”“I ain’t the one fucking her, how sho
