Everything I have been doing would have been better if I wasn’t doing it all in hiding. I feel I have been doing all of this all wrong from the beginning. I can’t fight alone, it was time I reached out to my sister. I broke into her foster’s house looking for the bracelet but couldn’t find it. Razor and Jay even tried to trap me into thinking I had found Sebastian. I’m not a fool and my father taught me better. I will not be blindsided by their schemes anymore. These years in hiding taught me better.
I took the risky move and made my way to Kioni’s apartment making sure to keep my eyes peeled. My heart was beating out of my chest harder than I expected. I was beginning to wonder why I didn’t do this sooner because it felt right.
“Hi there,” I said looking behind me. Everything seemed good so far. “I’m wondering if you can help me
Kioni “Wow, when did Rosalyn have time to make this?” I asked as I sat down. “I did ask her to make something special.” Nick smiled. “She is a miracle worker. This smells divine,” I let the aroma in. I’m surprised Rosalyn had time to make a casserole considering the amount of time I bumped into her when I was exploring the house. Nick must have asked her to make sure I got anything I needed because she kept me well fed and hydrated all afternoon. I’m not sure I have space to have dinner, but it smelled and looked devine. “How was your day,” Nick asked, plating his food. “It was good. I’m surprised I slept throughout the morning.” I responded as I added the salad to my plate.
Kioni I felt strange when my eyes opened. I couldn’t remember how I got here. The room was different and It wasn’t my bed. I looked around and noticed I was alone and I had my nightgown on and when I got out of bed I noticed my suitcase. I must be in a hotel room, I thought but how did I get here? I took a step back as I felt my head spin a little. I moved back and sat on the bed massaging my head trying to think. I looked around and saw my pills and a glass of water and moved to take one or two. They always made the pain go away and I needed to find my bearings and calm down before I figured out where I was. I was about to take some before I heard a knock on the door. “Just a second,” I responded. I moved to my suitcase looking for my gown. I quickly went through my clothes and pulled th
Harper One month later, I have never seen my brother this miserable and closed off. Even when our parents died he at least made an effort but ever since she disappeared he has been running like a motor and his fuel was about to run out soon. He looked rough, sad, and grumpy most of the time. He even had a gruff beard that made him look older than his age. It kind of made him look like dad if only he took the time to maintain the look. He looked like a defeated soul and I missed the old James. “James?” I knocked on his room. Silence. I waited before I knocked again this time a little harder. Silence. “James. I’m coming in with my eyes closed,” I spoke but there was no response. I didn’t hear him come in last night and he had left early for work that Conrad had to fetch me in the morning. I came back early today and left for my date and when I texted him about my plans he responded with just an ‘okay’. I was getting a little worried because usually when I go out, he demands I come ba
James I have been having the worst days. I go to work and ever since we closed the emoji girl case every other case has been a blur from there. It’s frustrating because work has been going smoothly but my personal dilemma has been futile. It’s been a month and nothing I have been doing has been working. Everything has been reaching a dead-end which made everything clear. It was too clean. It made it easier for me to focus more so that I managed to notice that I was being followed. I will never forget that face. He was the man with the suit, and he was the one with a phone on his ear. I don’t know how long he has been following me, but I noticed him last week. I must give him credit because I caught a glimpse of him last week but thought nothing of it before I saw him again yesterday when I was looking for a car for Harper. From then I became alert and I decided to lay a trap of my own. I still have less information and in need of proof, but I have managed to find my motive. Frank Tu
Nick I couldn’t believe I had managed to pull this off and have her all to myself. I enjoyed watching her sleep. This was my new favorite thing every day I crouched on my elbows as I was lost in her beauty. I wouldn’t have thought that I would have her in my bed like this. I smiled as she stirred. “You are being a creep again” she smiled. “You love it,” I smirked. “No.” she turned away from me, “It’s creepy. Stop it,” she hugged the covers. “It’s your fault,” I moved up, turning her, making her open her eyes. “Nick,” she looked at me with a warning, “Just because you are up doesn’t mean I have to be as well,” she yawned trying to push me off her. “Do you know what time it is?” I looked at her. “Too early,” she whined with a groan, “Get off me,” she squirmed underneath me. “It’s almost 10, baby,” I laughed. “Ten?” she shouted, “You should have been at work hours ago,” she spoke trying to push me off and I laughed. “Ki, baby, relax. Being a boss means I get to do what I want,”
Kioni “How are you feeling today?” the doctor asked. I don’t remember much except for what Nick told me. I was the only survivor of a car accident that killed my family that caused me to hit my head and get a hideous scar on my forehead. There was no one to take care of me so Nick’s father took me in and I lived with them since the accident. I don’t remember anything else and I have been forgetful lately. Nick mentioned it was because his father died last month that made me forget everything again. He said I was beginning to remember and I had made progress but his death took a huge toll on me and caused me to have blackouts recently. He has been patient with me and he suggested I do therapy to help me regain my memories. Doctor Singa has been filling me in on everything these past
Morgan I watched as all the color on little Nicky’s face drained as I proudly sat coolly on my seat. He was shocked that he didn’t have the gall to ask me how I came to find out about it. I have always liked it that way when I knew I had won, especially when it came to blackmail. He is wondering how I acquired the information and squirming like the worm he is. His father might be shrewd but Nicky has always been an easy target. He could have been a great mind if he wasn’t impulsive and stupid. I smiled looking at the menu as he glanced at me for the third time. I bet it was killing him how I found out about his secret. He was looking around the table wondering who I had told but this was a card I was keeping to myself for now. Something about the way he was panicking made me suspicious. This was interesting and I needed to bait him and see how he would react.
Nick I don’t know how Morgan found out about Ki, but I don’t like it. He would mess with my plans and ruin everything for me. I was beginning to enjoy everything with her. We were on our way to a happy life and the weasel is trying to ruin that. It was easy getting Ki to believe the lies I sold to her especially since she couldn’t remember much after I drugged her a couple of times. Doctor Singa said it was due to her having that accident that made her have short term memory loss. It was smooth sailing after I got her hypnotized into thinking all of her memories with her adoptive family were a false memory and a simple projection of her deeper desire in wanting a family. With that done every other memory, she had soon disappeared including James. Singa was greedy enough to accept the ruse and agreed to do my bidding with a clear warni
