My hands flipped through the files contained within the envelope as i tried hard to piece one or two together.

It was as what the professor had said; these files could only prove that my parents death were more deliberate than an accident. Yet, it didn't provide conclusive evidence on who the perpetrator might be.

I flung the files unto the coffee table in annoyance, i had looked over it a hundred times and yet - there was no clue. No trace..... no trails.

This was the kind of thing that had me pissed off to no ends - chasing a lead that goes absolutely nowhere.

I reclined on the sofa with my thoughts scrambling around and everywhere. Having nothing to do, i switched on the television - hoping to distract my mind and get my thoughts in order.

I tuned in to the entertainment channel, the sounds of the t.v soothed my aching mind which made me sigh in relief.

I barely ever watched the entertainment news,let alone kept tabs on it. But since i would be entering into the entertain

    He placed his hands right over his agape mouth, his eyes widening in shock and disbelief. I brought out my phone, showing him pictures of the dress and it's current situation. "When i went there, it was already like this". I placed my phone back into my purse, my eyes examining his change in expressions. "God!..... oh good Lord!." - he scratched his head, frantically trying to think of a next course of action but was unable to come up with any ideas. "Who the hell did this?!" - he clasped his hands tightly together as he paced up, down and around."That's also what I'm trying to find out too. Though i already have an idea who the mastermind was - i just need a concrete evidence that she's the one behind it" - I answered solemnly. Della stared at me, a tad bit of hope reigniting in his mind. "Do you think that you can actually sniff this person out?". "I have the evidence and I've got a suspect. Now all we need...... is a confession." - I smiled, my eyes cold and calculative.

    The set was dark and eerily quiet without a person in sight, i guess that everyone was already present at the event. I held on to my phone which was the only source of light, my footsteps echoing as i walked past some props that had been neatly arranged in a brown box. I walked to my locker room pulling out the keys as it jingled in the silence. I waved my phone around trying to spot where the dress was or where the vice director must have left it. My flashlight landed on a red dress that hung on a mannequin. A quick sigh escaped my lips...... I had found it, albeit not in a very good condition. It was torn and shredded with the pieces of red clothes laying around the base of the mannequin. I clicked my tongue, cursing my miserable luck. I walked up to it, my hands tracing the fabric - this dress was practically unsalvageable. It was a sleeveless long dress, embroidered with golden threads that were vibrant and full of vigor. Such an expensive piece of artwork had now been reduc

    "Ma'am, have you seen the news yet?" Bennett jumped before me excitedly, holding her tablet in her hands as she smiled brightly. "What happened?" - I dropped my script on the the table, not at all interested in what she had to say. "The movie went live and suddenly became a huge hit on different platforms and everyone loves it." - she announced, her happiness seemed limitless as she kept giggling. "Take a look at this!" - she scrolled through the tablet's screen showing me the movie rankings and the loads of comments that trailed behind it. "It's really great, everyone is saying that Rose is a very admirable character. They love her personality and the vibes. You totally outshined Irina, a top star actress."- she chuckled, clapping her hands together like a shy girl who just found love. " So ~?." - I asked, feeling unperturbed. I pursed my lips in a thin line,such measly fame wasn't something to be all giddy about. They were often fleeting - they leave as quickly as

    "It's funny. I was just thinking about the same thing" - I pulled the little child behind me in a protective stance, not wanting him to partake in anything that would be occurring at the moment. Irina crossed her legs, her red slit dress exposing her thighs as she stared down at me from her high place. Jason had his right arm wrapped around her thin waist, exuding the charms of a loyal husband. Edward..... kept staring at the little boy who seemed about his age whom i was protecting. His face which bore the same similarities with Jason had a smug expression.I clenched my fists tightly - resisting the urge to give him a proper beating as an act of discipline for his past mischievousness."Tch!. What's with that haughty attitude?" - She walked up to me, her eyes flashing a cold and calculative glint. I glared back at her silently, my hate knowing no bounds at this point. " Listen to me, Limp!!. Certain things are not to be messed with....... and you seem to be going way beyond

    I stood outside of the restaurant, clutching my bag tightly - feeling so infuriated and agitated. Yes - I was very angry and too vexed to even think straight. The audacity of him to ask me to give up my proprietorship rights over to him on a platter of gold. I paced around, my hands working their way on my hair as i tried to scratch off an irritable itch. "Ma'am, are you alright?" - a soft childish voice called out from below as i felt a gentle tug on my coat. I paused my actions momentarily, feeling my worked up cells relax in just a matter of seconds. "Do you need help?" - I lowered my gaze, feeling that strangely familiar voice tug at my heartstrings once more. "Hey, it's you!. What are you doing here?" - I squatted before the little figure, giving him a gentle pat on the head. The sudden change in demeanor shocked me to core - I was nothing like that shrew from before, who kept pacing around like a mad lady.The blonde curled child tilted his head to the side, revealing a

    I walked into the fancy restaurant, passing by tables until i finally found Jason's silhouette admist the crowd of extravagantly lavish people. He sat there, looking all good and dapper in his custom tailored black suit which had been ironed to perfection. His dark hair was gelled backwards, revealing his sharp features and dark eyes. I walked towards him, taking a seat before him. He raised his eyes, his gaze locking with mine before he averted them. "You finally came...." - he paused, his fingers toying with the napkins. "Thought i would have to start a fire and invite the fire brigade before you came over" - he joked sarcastically. "What do you want?!" - I didn't have the time to dilly-dally around with him. What i needed was rest. "You disappear for two years and you suddenly appear out of nowhere and that too as a CEO. Makes me wonder what you've been to........ during that time" - he said, stroking his chin subtly. I lifted my lips in a false smile," I as well wonder
