Burglar Breaking In

POV: SelinaI was awoken by a strange sound. Amara decided to spend the night at her man's house, so I was all alone in the house. Someone is attempting to crack my front door lock. I’ve heard the clicking sound a few times and I’m filled with extreme fear. I shivered in fear as I lay on my bed. With fear in my heart, I got out of bed and stayed huddled by the bedside table, hiding behind the curtains.“Wait, why am I hiding when I should be calling for help?” I asked within myself. I ran to the other side of the room and I got my phone and called Amara immediately, “Help, Ama!Help!Call the cops, someone is breaking into the house, I’m in my bedroom, call the cops!” I yelled into my phone. She wanted to ask many questions, but I hung up immediately and called the cops myself. I told them about the intruder and they asked me to go into a safe space and shut the door firmly. I made sure they knew that he was desperately pushing at my door from outside trying to crack it open. After

Another Suspect

POV: Selina“Stay back!Stay back! Don’t come any closer!Stay the fu*k away from me, stay away!” I yelled at him, my heart beating in fear as I realized that the cops were no longer here. I’m alone with him and there is no telling what he would do to me. He looked surprised by my reaction, I could tell that he felt hurt by my words. I tried to turn away, but he blocked my path and held out his hand to me, a nervous smile playing on his lips“What are you doing?It’s me, Lina…I’m here now, I’m here to keep you safe.” He told me, sounding hurt and sad. I turned to look at his face and I broke into tears, trying to forget about the sound of his boots hitting the tiles and the frightening sound he made when he kicked the door open. I stood on that spot and sobbed sadly, my tears flowing freely down my cheeks. For some reason, my legs refused to move any further. I don’t want to leave him standing there in the cold, and I don’t want to go to him either. I just stood there crying my eye

Threatening Mrs Wilson

POV: FelixIt had taken everything in me to stop me from forcing myself on her when our bodies collided. She was at her most vulnerable and wished to take control over her when she was too weak to put up a fight. I held her, comforting her, trying to make her see the thrill of getting so scared all for nothing. But she wasn’t seeing it the way I wanted her to, she was too scared to make sense of what I was saying.I wanted to take her home and make her feel better. I have a very comforting tea that would relax her nerves and put her in the mood. That’s what I want, it’s what I have always wanted. But Selina is damn too stubborn, that strong will of hers, it’s too difficult to break. I thought she would be too scared to spend one more second in that house, I thought I had her where I wanted her, that she would not resist and she would follow me back to my house.But she was determined to prove to her attacker that she was not scared. She did all she could to look and sound brave, but I

Asking George For Help

POV: FelixI sighted Martin Moore amongst her friends and it pissed me off to see her chatting so freely with him. Simon Wilson was there as well, but he wasn’t in her circle, he didn’t even go near her. I’m guessing that he is posted at her for hanging out with me. I don’t care if he wants to hate her, as long as he doesn’t ever come close to her, then I have no problem with him.But Martin is not someone I can chase away easily. The fact that he was flirting with her made me so furious. It’s obvious that she knows him too well and she is even enjoying his company. I took pictures of both of them together, I’m going to question her about it when she gets back to the office. She was having fun chatting with him, then all of a sudden she frowned deeply and her hands began to shake by her side as her fears returned. I wanted to run up to her and hug her, but then I would have to explain why I was here and I would look like a stalker. Her emotions are complex and uneasy, it feels as if

Taken To The Hospital

POV: Selina “H… H… How did you know I fell in the bathroom, I never said that to anyone, Martin. How did you know?” I asked in shock, my hands shaking in fear as I realized that he was also wearing a blue jean and boots like my attacker. I looked around me and almost all the guys around me had the same kind of boots and jeans too. I couldn’t take it anymore, my heart was beating faster and my entire body was shaking vigorously. The stalker could be Martin, it could be Felix, it could be any of these guys around me. I don’t know who it is or why he would want to hurt me and that hurts so bad. I thought I would be fine, but hearing Martin and realizing that the stalker might be Martin has left my emotions complex and uneasy. I’m feeling as if I have been drawn into an even deeper void. Everyone suddenly looked suspicious to me, I had to hold my head as it hurt so bad. “You must have said it while you were telling your story, I mean, how else would I know?” he asked jokingly, making

Still Investigating

POV: Selina “You don’t have to do this, Lina. You heard the doctor, didn’t you? You need rest, that’s what he said, in case you forgot.” Amara yelled at me as I paced the room, waiting for the cops to pick me up. She wasn’t there in his office when he said I had an anxiety attack. If she was there, then she would understand why I needed to speak to an officer and get the full report from last night. Doctor George is right, I need to identify the cause of my panic attack and deal with it. In this case, I need to find out if Martin was anywhere around this vicinity last night. Upon returning home, I decided to contact the police to check if the surveillance footage captured any suspicious individuals lurking around my house yesterday. Luckily, I was able to speak with the officer who handled my case last night. He assured me that he is still working on my case and he told me there was no strange activity around my house last night. I pleaded and asked him to check a few blocks away

Simon Is Transferred

POV: Selina“What’s going on, why is everyone so quiet, what happened here?” I asked the interns as I reviewed their new projects. They shrugged their shoulders at me, refusing to say anything to me. Some of them even rolled their eyes at me, eyeing me as if I did something wrong. I felt angry, I didn’t know what to do, I don’t even know what is going on and I definitely do not want to find out from Mrs Wilson. For all I know she could be the reason why everyone is staring at me this way. Maybe her secrets have been exposed. And if I’m seen with her, I will be in trouble too. I decided to go to the one person that I know would not hide the truth from me. I decided to go to Simon Wilson to find out what is going on. I know we are having some conflict and disagreement, but that won’t stop him from telling me what is happening here. As I walked towards his office, there were hushed whispers coming from some of the bolder staffs who do not care about my wrath. It seems they do not

Accused And Fired

Selina.I felt shivers run down my spine as I trailed behind Chloe to her office. She entered before me, slamming the door after her loudly, causing me to tremble.'What was going on, why was I having a bad feeling about this?' I pondered, taking in a deep breath and trying to calm myself down.I finally grabbed the door knob, turned it and then walked inside, my head raised high. I saw Chloe already sitting behind the desk, her chin resting on both her hands as she scrutinized me with her gaze.The look in her eyes wasn't friendly, rather it seemed as if she was trying not to wrinkle her nose at me in disgust. I thought I was meeting with the board of directors, why did she bring me to her office?"I always knew you weren't to be trusted, but you actually stooping as low as this is so unbelievable." She said and I furrowed my brows at her in confusion.'What was she talking about and why shouldn't I be trusted?' I wondered."How could you betray us in such a way?First you flirt with

Stay In My House

POV: Serena I kept replaying the incident in my head, trying to recall when and how I’d implicated myself without my knowledge. I’d caught her s couple of times, and our conversation is always on the same page always. It’s starts with me being shocked at her actions and ends with her offering me a spot on her team. The last time I’d seen her stealing the designs, I had tried to stop her, didn’t I?...Flashback..."Oh my God! Mrs. Wilson, what are you doing here and with the Jewel's designs?" I questioned, my hand covering my mouth as I watched Mrs. Wilson, sneakily trying to steal them.She shook, her phone dropping from her hand to the floor, causing a loud noise as beads of sweats gathered on her forehead. Her eyeballs widened as she looked here and there briskly, to make sure no one was in sight."Damn! You scared me. Be more careful next time, you don't want to be responsible for my next panic attack, do you?" Mrs. Wilson tried changing the subject but I wasn't allowing her.Rat

Little Hope

HOPE.Seline.I stood outside the office building, clutching my belongings tightly in my hands as a feeling of despair ran through me. My heart clenched tightly in pain, my shoulders dropping as I wondered where I would go next from here. My rent was expiring today, I already promised the landlord payment today but could I pay when I have just been fired?I had no last hope. Everything just happened fast and suddenly. "You are fired." The words echoed continuously in my head and I shut my eyes immediately, trying to zone it out. This wasn't the time.I should never have trusted Mrs. Wilson. I should have just reported and done the right thing then, but I didn't.'Where was I to go now?' I wondered, pressing my lips together, unaware of Felix approaching me from behind.He placed his soft hand on my shoulder, and I almost jumped, startled, turning around to face him wide-eyed."Sorry." He apologized, immediately withdrawing his hand with a thin smile. "Didn't mean to startle you." H
