LOGINTwo years later,
The gate buzzed open as she walked out,
“Motherfuckers,no single decency in their bones”she pulled her face cap lower to cover her face, dressed in a baggy faded jeans,big stripped long sleeved shirt,she walked down the road,
looking at a card an inmate had given to her last week,this better be helpful,a vegetable farm,well half bread is better than none ,she stopped by the highway waiting to see if the universe might be merciful enough for her to hitch a ride into the countryside.
She heard the sound of engine,she looked from under her cap,as she sized the woman riding a truck humming a tune she seemed totally at peace.
“Where to young lady”the woman asked,she handed the card over to the woman,her face bloomed into a pleasant smile.
“Nice to meet you,scar right,weird name though,I'm Aria by the way,hop on let's ride on”
Scar climbed into the truck, watching how they passed by buildings,scar stared enjoying the view and fresh breeze caressing her skin,she's missed this.
Scar eyes widened twice it size in shock remembering what the inmate told her.
“It's just a vegetable farm, Aria is nice, she'll accept you just give her this card”
But this sight before her is not just a vegetable farm spanning large hectares,the truck drove to a halt.she pushed the door open stepping out.
“Well girl you look hungry,let's go feed you”Aria ever cheerful voice called out.
Scar turned and followed her,her eyes cast down her face barely visible,workers greeted as they walked past,they stopped at a restaurant,scar sat opposite Aria.
“So why don't you show me your face, you've been covering your face since we met”
Aria said cheerfully,a waiter came over to take their order,scar removed her cap tying her hair in a ponytail to reveal her face,her cold eyes locked at Ariawarm eyes,the waiter gasped in shock, Aria's smiling face slowly transformed to shock.
“Bring my usual two plate”she ordered the waiter who hurried off not wanting to spend another moment with someone who looks like the undead,why would someone's eyes be that cold.
Scar scoffed and leaned backwards,her smile resembling a crocodile baring it's teeth,the waiter returned with the order,scar dug in without hesitation eating like someone starved for years, Aria watched her while they ate,soon her plate was empty,she signalled the waiter for another plate.
They were done eating,”so where do you stay,like before going to prison” Aria asked with the gentlest of voice.
“I have no home”scar answered coldly.
“Your parents?
“Dead,I have no parents”she answered in the same monotone emotionless tone. Aria studied her carefully her eyes running over the scar running from her cheek to her ear,and a scar cutting her right eyebrow.scar noticed her gaze,she bared her teeth again, because that cannot be classified as a smile.
“Don't worry I scarred more people,that's were I got the name,I give people scars they live with for life,what use is a business if I don't advertise my own business,so these are my artworks”then she laughed it was dry and bitter.
Mama Rita chuckled uncomfortably,”yeah,since you are an orphan and homeless,you can stay with me”
Scar looked up”I'll decline that,I come with a bag of trouble, actually a truck full”
“I don't mind,I sincerely don't mind”
“Hold her down,kick that bitch ,she thinks she's better than others”scar curled as the kicks landed,”how about a makeover,a make over”the voices as they held her down,one of the ladies squatted before her with a piece of glass,scar trashed violently but the hands holding her was stronger,she sharp pain tore from her right ear to her cheek,she screamed as they left her not without final kicks,she screamed like a wounded bull pain blinding her senses.
“It's just a dream,wake up ,it's a dream”she heard the voice anchoring her to reality,she gasped waking up she sat up immediately drenched in sweat.
“Sweetheart it's just a dream” she opened her eyes to mama Rita rubbing her back to soothe her,she was enveloped in a warm hug,scar slowly softened to the warmth of the hug,but it wasn't a dream it was real.shes been to hell and back.
Scar knelt beside the nursery bed as she slowly uprooted them for transplanting,she felt at peace just working.
”scar” a voice cut her attention,she adjusted her hat turning to who called her.
“Jeez” the lady gasped.”it's break time”
Scar nodded as she continued working.
She walked towards the cafeteria,as she picked a plate and joined the line around her conversation swirled around effortlessly,she's patient and she knows it's a virtue that will pay off.
A hospital room comes in view a man sat up as slow beeping sound could be heard,he's staring at pictures of scar working in the farm.
“Seriously,scar is working on a farm”he laughed,his side stood behind him.
“Yes sir just as you see in the photos,she's actually a very delligent worker,all her colleagues talk good of her”
He scoffed”she might fool others but she'll never fool me,keep an eye on her she's planning something big, seriously a farmer of every job,who knew a day like this would come”he chuckled.
”what exactly is she farming, obviously she's farming a big revenge plan"
“You want to talk to someone,you know share”Summer asked,“No”Scar answered coldly.“You know sharing makes it easier to bear”Summer pressed further.“I don't need a therapist”She answered with emphasis on the word therapist.“Well not really a therapist,but don't you want to know how he is doing,like him selling Atheon out of nowhere maybe you can call him”Summer insisted patiently.“No I won't do that, it's his life he can fuck it anyway”She answered.“Then just change the damn channel, you have been stuck watching the news for the past ages do something else”Summer snapped.Scar hissed in response.
The meeting went on flawlessly.“The CEO is indisposed but that doesn't stop this company,and we have to save ourselves before we drown with him”Axel said in a cold tone,“Among those interested in buying Atheon,due consideration has been given to Mr Micheal Malcom,due to his good relationship with many members of the board”Around the table many nodded in approval“the CEO has been informed 72 hours ago”He continued.The secretary nodded by the side as she took notes on her laptop.“But his legal representative is here, Mr Lucien"Lucien stood up as he placed a document on the table,“The board has agreed and come to a conclusion,and they have all signed, Mr Ethan choose to back off,we won't drown with him”
“What a surprise to see you here”Axel turned to face Micheal who approached him with a warm smile on his face.Micheal always charming.“I was actually looking for you the pleasure is mine”Axel answered as he stretched his hand for a handshake.“Hello Mr Micheal”He greeted him.“Hello Axel”Michael answered, shaking his hand with practiced firmness.“And why do you want to see me”Michael asked.“No actually,why would Ethan's man want to see me”He rephrased a grin lighting up his face,“Why don't we sit and talk”Axel said pointing to a bench in the garden.“Sure”&nbs
She is back there again, shivering,her breaths came out haggard,her head is banging.A headache that threatened to split her head into two.She curled herself on the floor wishing she could disappear,“Get up bitch”She was doused with cold water,as hands gripped her hair pulling her up roughly.“Let go of me”She screamed,well not really screamed it came out barely above whisper.She tries to resist planting her feet firmly in the floor ,“Trying to struggle”A punch landed on her face as she felt herself spiralling into darkness.“You have strength,hit me,hit me,show me your strength”The voice was coming from everywhere,“Just stop,it hurts it hurts”She sobbed harder wishing the pain would stop.But it never stopped here in this hellhole where she is being cornered. There is no help coming.“The fuck is going on,shit is it that bad”Domnic asked as he dashed into the room,He looked really worried dropping a bag on the bed,“She is down,since morning I have been trying you line”S
“Are you okay”Summer asked worriedly,As Scar sneezed for the upteenth time,“You look horrible”“I know”Scar answered, running a hand through her hair,she felt terrible,her head banged relentlessly,her body aches.She leaned her head on the table,as she thrummed the desk lightly.“Maybe you should go home early”Summer suggested,“Yeah nice suggestion,with the fashion show days from today”She said, raising her head up, returning to the files before her.“well with the way you are looking you might not live till the fashion show,we need to go home,you look horrible so pale”Summer pressed worriedly.Scar glared at her before returning to her work.“how about you come sort all this, besides I'm fine I've been through worst”Scar insisted.“Well I'm just worried have you seen you”Summer insisted,“Let's go check how the designs are coming out”Scar said as she stood up, Summer followed closely behind watching her steps hoping she wouldn't fall.“How long has he been like this”Der
Ethan sat lost in thought as he sipped the whiskey from the glass, occasionally letting the glass dangle.Her words replayed in his head.“You think Micheal has enough influence to keep me in Donjon”“Your father is the villian”"Your family is screwed"He looked up to Marcus who sat busy working on a laptop.Marcus Malkov, Malkov Intel,he has access to every information,unless.Marcus was his eyes for him not to notice it,it's because his eyes were tied,or they were never his eyes in the first place.Ethan stood up in rage as he walked over to Marcus.He held his collar slamming him against the wall,the laptop clattered on the floor.“Boss”He stuttered, clearly shocked at Ethan attacking him.“Who do you work for”
“Just get off me “She said, trying to wriggle out.“Lisa we are still talking”He said sternly.“You don't just tell me,we are still talking and everything goes back to normal”She answered, clearly pissed.“I'm not asking you to forget everything,I'm asking you to tell me what's troubling you, ab
“Eat more you need to regain more flesh you look pale,like a vampire” Aria said adding more food to her plate.“I would prefer a zoombie”scar answered as their eyes met,a shiver ran down Aria's spine gosh she can never get used to this cold gaze.scar froze as a sharp pain tore through her abdomen,
Lisa slowly opened her eyes, everything hurts she sobbed without meaning to, stretching her hand she pressed a button by her bed and a maid ran in dressed in a short gown her hair neatly packed and held with a scrunchie she bowed her head,hands shaking in fear,she kept clasping and unclasping her p
“Your woman huh”lisa asked leaning on the wall, Ethan placed his hand by her side as he stared into her eyes,she rolled her eyes looking downwards,he held her chin raising her face to look at his,they stared into each other eyes lost for the moment.”yeah my woman I like it”he said the words ro
