Cross PovShe hung up on me, the bitch fucking hung up on me, I stared at the phone in my hand in disbelief, I tried calling it again and the phone has been turned off, I turned to face her parents and mine in anger, I couldn't believe what just happened."So, y'all telling I came all the way from New York for this? To be humiliated? Mom? Dad?"I asked, trying but failing so hard at controlling my anger, I shouldn't direct it towards them but I was pained, I was beyond pained, not even in a million years did I imagine that this, something so embarrassing will come to my family, and here I was, I came all the way from New York and the bitch decided to ditch me, even if it takes moving heaven and earth I will find her and make her pay, the guests were already talking, the event was supposed to start by seven and it way passes nine pm still nothing, of course, they would start talking and before long they will find out what happened, that's if they don't already know."Son, calm down,"

Kathy PovI woke up with a start, checked the wall clock on Louis's bedroom and it was some minutes past seven am, I quickly got up from the bed and looked around the house, but Louis was still not around, I couldn't turn my phone back on to avoid it getting tracked, I should have thought of it getting tracked last night but I was much too nervous, I went to where the house line was kept and dialed his number, it rang and rang but he didn't pick up, I took the house line with me to the living room sat there and called him again, but still no response, I even went as far as calling his cousin Pearl, she too didn't take her to call, worried could no longer be used to describe how I was feeling."Come on Louis,"I said biting down hard on my lips, I fought to keep the tears off my eyes but still a few found their way out, I walked into the kitchen and tried to distract myself by making us breakfast, maybe he will be back before it is ready, I thought.The minutes tickled into hours and s

Kathy PovI spent the whole of the week at Louis or whatever his real name was, at first, I couldn't bring myself to believe that what happened was true, but as the days went by, reality began to dawn on me, I still didn't know what to do, I had no money with me, for the first two days I didn't eat anything but I could only starve my self for just a short time, I had to eat and thankfully there was food in the fridge, I survived on them, but still the food available in the house was fast running out, every day I wake up and think of what I am going to do but nothing seemed to click, I ruined my life myself for believing and trusting a scammer, even when my friends and family told me to stay away, if only I had listened to Juliet, I wouldn't be in this mess, not like there is much I could do right now, I may be sturbborn but I knew I was spoilt, I didn't know how to do a lot of basic things, except cooking because my nanny made sure to teach me how to cook not to mention that I love ea

Kathy PovI stood in front of our mansion and for the first time I didn't know what to do, I didn't know if I should knock or just walk in, I felt like a total stranger, I gathered up my last drop of confidence and walked up to the gate, the giant gate looking so big and scary for the first time ever, I had on a plain T-shirt and faded pair of jeans that I got at a cheap price at the market, it would be the cheapest thing I have ever worn, I didn't bother to do my makeup and my hair was packed up in a messy bun, I looked miserable even to my eyes, I walked close to the gate and before I could knock, the security man came out, he looked shocked to see me, but quickly got over it and ushered me in, I guess he didn't know yet that I am no longer part of the family, I didn't remember his name as I wasn't good at remembering people's names."Are my parents home?"I asked in a rather tiny voice."Yes, your mom is home but the dad is not, he left for a meeting a while ago,"He disclosed and

Kathy Pov"What did you say?"I asked even though I heard him perfectly the first time, I didn't trust him, was he going to make me come with him and then kill me? Or he was just mocking me, this wasn't the Cross that I remembered though, he has changed a lot in both appearance and the way he talks, the Cross I knew before would have told the driver to bring me to the hospital and maybe got on a taxi to get to the airport.'Well, he didn't know who you were,'My mind said and I agreed but still, he looked more approachable and was even talking to me."I said come with me to New York, on second thought don't, I don't need to deal with you anyway, you are not having the best time of your life right now so that's enough punishment,"He said."Why? Don't you want me to suffer more?""Well you are suffering right now, and it doesn't look like it will get better for you any time soon, do you even have a place to sleep?""None of your business, so can I go now?""Hmm, yeah, right after you c
