THE ANTONIO'S MANSION
After about an hour drive, Natasha pulled over at the garage. She sauntered down and trod into the house without any interest of Gisel nor Gina. She left them behind in the car. Gina sighed and instinctively glanced up at Gisel who sat next to her with her hands pressed on the window of the car as she stared out through the glass. Her gaze was fixed on the house with tears in her eyes.Gina stared at her for a while; her heart felt heavy, watching her. She sighed. “Gisel, dear” She called and she slowly turned back at her, facing her in the process. Gina forced a smile as their eyes met. “Come on, dear–Let me help you. We're here now.” Gisel weakly tilted her head." Thanks, Aunty." She answered with a blank gaze. Gina hurried down and rushed to her side of the car. She swiftly opened the door and helped her down. Gisel stood in front of the door for a while as she stared at the door. Gina glanced at the door as well and back at her. SheA WEEK LATERNatasha strolled through the corridor with a thoughtful gaze as her mind woundered off in thought."I'm almost done with Gina." She smirked. “Now, all i need is a very good strategic way to get to Desmond–Think, Nat, think.", she muttered. Just then, a thought clicked in. Her lips curved in a satisfactory grin and her eyes sparkled with joy." I'm such a genius.” She scoffed. “ I'll call him over for dinner after school,then I'll take over the rest– Yes!, such a sharp brain I've got up there.”. She chuckled and sauntered over to her room. GRAVE YARDGisella stood by her father's grave. Her eyes fixed on it as sorrow erupted her chest. The tears she fought back, slowly drifted down her chin. She slowly crenched down as she dropped the flowers in her hands, brushing her hands over the grave." Hi, daddy” She giggled as she sniffed back her tears, a pained smiled dazzled on her face. “Your baby is here to see you, dad” She sobbed and chuc
HOSPITALGisella and Lizzy arrived at the hospital with Gina. Gisella quickly rushed into the hospital as she desperately howled for help." Help us, please– someone is dying!" She cried. Some nurses hurriedly approached her with a stretcher."Come,where is the patient?" The queried" Please follow–" She fidgeted with rapid breath as she sped ahead of them. Lizzy sat on the floor with Gina on her laps when the nurses approached with Gisella." Save her, please..", Lizzy cried with a brooding gaze on noticing them. They swiftly laid Gina on the stretcher and raced her through the corridors to the emergency ward. Lizzy and Gisella paced after them." Please stay here." a nurse uttered as they entered into the ward. They nervously nodded while the door went shut. They shuffled around with a worried gaze. Gisella drew closer to a chair at the corner of the ward and wearily fainted into it. She let out a faint sigh as she gazed down. Just then, a voice called beside her
SCHOOLLoretta dashed off after Desmond as he angrily sped off." Desmond?–Deamond!, please wait for me” She shouted but he just kept going without gazing back at her.“ Just let me be, Lore” He howled. “ I'm really not in the mood for your troubles, please”. Loretta realized her efforts were just not working as planned. She instinctively paused in her pace, her nose pinched and her brow furrowed.“ I really need to get his attention else Bianca and Paola will definitely laugh at me for a failed plan” She thought to herself. “Oh, gosh!– what should I do now?”, she cried, her frustration evident on her face. Suddenly, her lips curved in a bright smile as a thought clicked in. She chuckled.“You'll surely go on this date tonight, Desmond ” She whispered with a chuckle. Desmond was about to board the bus when he heard Loretta scream in pain. He swiftly turned only to find her groaning on the floor in pain. He panicked." Lore?– Loretta!” He shouted as he sped
NATASHA'S ROOM" How dare him!” She roared, thumping the vast to the floor. Her flashed with fury. “How dare him decide not to come–Desmond,you'll regret your decision. I will make you regret!!”Natasha exclaimed, throwing things around,furiously." Oh, I know the person behind all this.” She sneered. “ Gisella ” She chortled. “ You're trying to meddle in my business again, Huh?” She chuckled.“ Alright,we'll see how far you'll go with this..." She angrily dashed out of the room towards Gisella's room.Gisella laid on her bed, crying herself out when the door suddenly slammed opened. She jolted, adjusting herself on the bed. " What do you want again, Natasha? ", she cried. Natasha instinctively, chuced." Oh, i see ” She tilted her head, her lips curved in a half smle. “ You even had the gust to ask what I want.” Natasha laughed. “Very funny, Gisela–” She stated but Gisela wasn't in for her drama. With indifference, she stuttered."If you don't
TWO DAYS LATERSCHOOLDesmond sat in class, completely lost in his thoughts. It's been two days after Gisella's discharge from the hospital but never had she called or texted. She had neither attended class as well and this got him worried and nervous. He tried calling but she never answered his calls or returned any of his texts either. Desmond became so frustrated that he didn't know what else to do." It's better I visit her at home after class– I really need to find out what's going on with her” He thought to himself. A sudden voice instinctively drew his attention." Hey, Desmond, here you are–” She scoffed. “I've been searching everywhere for you” a feminine voice announced. He deftly turned to the direction of the voice, thinking it was Gisel but his face instinctively went numb on seeing who it was.“Hey, It's you– why are you looking for me? Need anything? ” He asked as he stared up at her. She sneered.“ What's with you?– Why that face and the loads of questi
Sshrinkst of the class hours felt like an endless nightmare for Gisella as she kept glancing at the clock from time to time. Her mind couldn't bare the heaviness of her heart. Soon the bell howled, class was finally over. She hurriedly packed her stuff into her bag and dashed out of the class without uttering a word. Desmond stared at her, his eyes flattered with pain and curiosity.He swiftly picked his bag. " I'll find out what you're hiding, Gisella ” He stuttered and quietly paced after her. Paola's attention was instinctively drawn towards them." Look over there, Lore–” She nudged Loretta towards the direction of Desmond and Gisella. Her lips instinctively curved in a smile." I think this is the best time for you to act, girl", Bianca whispered and Paola bobbed her head in support." Bianca is right, Lore” She added. “You got to find a way to get Gisella out of the picture, that's the only way you'll have Desmond by your side forever.” Loretta scoffed, her l
HOSPITAL Desmond briskly rushed into the hospital, his face flushed with anxiousness. His darting eyes swiftly lurked through the corridors as he sped towards the reception. His breath was quiet heavy."Hi, Miss" He exclaimed as soon as he got to the reception. "Please I'm looking for a patient, Mrs. Catherina Benson. She was rushed here some minutes ago– Can I know her ward?" He mumbled in a single breath.The nurse tilted her head with a faint smile." Wait a moment while I check it for you." She replied, turning back to the laptop in front of her. He drummed his fingers on the counter as he impatiently waited. His legs were unable to stand still, he rubbed the nape of his neck as he run his hands through his hair, desperate. Just then, a voice called from behind."Desmond?" He deftly turned only to find his mother approaching from the doctor's office with Martin. " Mum!" he howled as he sped towards them." Are you okay, mum?",
THE ANTONIO'S MANSION It was already midnight. The moon shone its bright light as the darkness laid still and quiet with the warm breeze brushing through the earth.Gisella laid, tossing and turning on her bed, deep in thoughts as the words of the strange girl and the old woman she met at the hospital continued to echo in her thoughts." oh, God" She mumbled. "What's really going on with me?– Why do I keep meeting these strange people? And they keep speaking in words I don't seem to understand. " She straightened her back while she adjusted herself on the bed. With closed eyes, she exhaled."Goodness– I wish my life was just as simple as every normal young lady", she cried. A knock from the door suddenly interrupted and she jolted out of her thoughts, tensed. Her eyes instinctively travelled to the door." Who is there?", she called but had no answer from the intruder. She tilted her head with a creased and furrowed brow, her gaze fixed at the door, confuse
