Chapter 65EsmeraldaWhen we got closer to the location, Brian and they rest stopped a block away from the location.They got out of the car and Dave took me there... making it seem normal."Don't fret." Matt said, through the small listening device in my ear.When I and Dave got to the location, I stepped down and dialed the line she had used in calling me."I'll call you when I need you, Dave." I said, waving my hand and he nodded, zooming."Hello, Mom?" "You still call me Mom." She said."Well, I can't blame God for giving me a mother like you...And remember." I mumbled. "This is only for Chelsea." I said, looking around."Where are you?""I'm looking at you, a man will come up to you right now...follow him." She said."Follow who? I'll leave right now..if you don't fucking come down here." I scoffed. "After all these years, you wanna send an assistant to come bring me up?" I chuckled. "Seems like your writing business is really paying off, for you to even have a writer." I mumble
SIX MONTHS LATEREsmeralda"I don't know what I want." I mumbled, biting hard on the Doritos Jerry had gotten me."Please just eat the Doritos and stop bothering the hell out of me." Jerry said, and scoffed.. slumping down on the couch.Tears filled my eyes as if I'd been stabbed with thousands ofn needles.How could he yell at me?"Brian!" I yelled at the top of my voice and he instantly ran down the stairs."What's wrong?" He frowned, nearing the table where I sat."Jerry yelled at me. Called me fat and plumpy, he insulted me." I cried, staring at Jerry who didn't even bother to look at us."Jerry." Brian called darkly."Don't tell me you believe whatever she says." Jerry chuckled and hissed loudly."What did you say to her?""Nothing." He mumbled and walked out of the living room.I giggled and stood up immediately."Baby." Brian gave me a weird look."I just did all that to piss him off." I sighed. "He keeps telling me to go cook with this..." I patted my belly. "Wi
Chapter 1The small door opened widely, as she peered her eyes inside.She'd met many people who wanted her dead but none took her to a place like this.It smelt of death, and she hated the stench!"Where is this place Ralda?? Are we going to die now and go to heaven?" Her little sister started whimpering.She sure didn't like it here. Neither did the little girl. "We're going to be fine Chelsea. Stop crying." She tried to console her younger sister but she didn't listen.The little one's whimpers turned to yells. Ralda couldn't do a thing.. she didn't even know why they were there.But then... She knew who might be the reason. "Who brought us here Ralda?" She cried the more, burying her head into her sister's big skirt.Esmeralda's eyes blurred with tears too. "I'm so sorry Chelsea.. but I don't know." She whimpered.Just a while ago... they were at home.About to eat the leftover she had brought from work.That was the only thing she could remember, as she racked her head.
Chapter 2"Time to go Princesses." Was this real at all? Five Million Dollars... Just Two days!!"No...no. Please we're so sorry. We'll pay but give us extra time." She began yelling... As if her sense had come in at that time."Stop yelling princess... he's long gone. Prepare the money in Two days." The Macho man said as he scratched his head.Her eyes went to the man talking. Was he crazy? Or does he have loose nuts??How the hell was she going to get that sum of money in Two days?They were penniless, they had nothing at all. Nothing.How could he?? Did she think? Her hand was suddenly grabbed.. making her yelp in pain.She let the tears fall... As she was been dragged away like she weighed nothing.This was all because of her father?? That man had dealt with them.How could he die after gambling away so much money?? How could he??And their mother?? That Witch had abandoned them ever since they were kids."What kind of cruel world was this??" She wondered as the tears left he
Chapter 3" I don't care how you do it, Josh makes sure the drugs leave the warehouse tonight." A man's deep thick voice was heard in a dark room with only a glint of light coming into the house through the one-sided window that was opened."Boss.. that's not possible. It's late and the bureaus are taking a walk around the other shore." A shaky voice was heard from the other line."Are you defying my orders, Josh?" He asked his forehead knitting to a frown."Huh? Never Sir. I can never do that.""But what if... We don't get the goods back and it's taken by the bureau?" The shaky voice was heard again."Then make sure they don't take it... Do it now." The deep voice came again.The call was cut off.He heaved a deep breath and walked towards the light. He covered the room preventing any further light from entering.His phone rang and he picked it up."Hey, Brian." The other person yelled."Stop yelling when Calling me Wilson. What is it?" He asked."Did you get it back? The Money?" T
Chapter 4She wasn't even aware that they were back home.Her eyes had been turning in circles... And her headache had increased."Chelsea." Her cracky voice called out, as she stood up from the small bench in their small room.She walked into the bedroom and found her little sister curled up in bed... Fast asleep.They didn't even eat the food that she had brought from work. How did they even get back?How come she didn't remember anything at all? Was she drugged? She wondered."Ralda. Ralda." She heard the little one whimper in bed. "Ohh... Sorry darling, I'm right here.""It's just a nightmare," Ralda said, comforting her sister... As she lay down with her on the bed.She kissed her forehead and hugged her tight...and soon fell asleep.****** Aaaaaaq... The morning alarm rang loudly in the small room.Jerking Ralda up quickly. She woke up instantly and sat on the bed."Huh?" Little Chelsea woke up too and frowned."Go back to sleep Hunny, I'll go prepare breakfast so you
Chapter 5 "Hello, Grandma?" His face scrunched up. Why was she calling? He wondered."You know what it is today, Right?" His Grandma said, in her low voice."I don't care what day it is Grandma, it doesn't change the fact that he died due to his stupidity." His voice came out harshly."Stop it, Brian, stop yelling, your father loved you." The older woman was close to crying."Stop crying for someone that's not worth it, Grandma. Cause I won't be coming for that thing or whatsoever." He said and hung up.Shit! He had planned on not getting angry today.He slumped down on a chair. "What?" He yelled, picking up his phone that was ringing loudly in his ears.He didn't even look at the screen. "Take it easy there, Wolf. It's me, Matt." Matt said."What is it, Matt?" Brian asked, taking a glass of Bacardi rum In his hands."You've forgotten or you don't wanna come," Matt said, more like a question."About what?" He asked. "Stop it, bro, about Sylvester's Party," Matt replied."Hm."
Chapter 6"A Maxwell??" Somehow the name sounded familiar. "They were a lot of Maxwell. Right?"Ralda thought as she arranged the table. "God!" She had never attended VIPs before.Why now? She thought.She looked up and saw Sophie giving her a thumbs up. "You rock girl." Sophie squealed.She chuckled.. shaking her head. If only she didn't know about that Five Million Dollars.Are head would be calm and she would be thinking straight. With that huge amount to pay off... She was sure she would get sleepless nights." It's your turn Pretty. Get in before he roars your name." She heard Esme say.Tch!! Life was always ready to throw rocks at her.Couldn't it at least throw fewer rocks.. and more pillows??***At a certain Royal Crown Hotel.A large, Grand ballroom had been cautiously set up for what seemed to be a very classy event.Golden Chandeliers dangled from the glittering ceiling.An environment for the rich.. and high-class people.A BMW drove into the parking lot..and
