51 Dinner

Gina’s POV Karl did not care about their shock. “This is Lisa. She will be your assistant from now on,” he said. Lisa immediately composed herself and smiled at me warmly. “Nice to meet you.” This action made me realize she was a capable assistant. Karl must have taken his time to pick them out. No wonder they signed the contract so easily. I nodded back. “Nice to meet you too.” Karl gestured that we could go out; it seemed he still had a few things to discuss with the music director. Lisa led me to my workspace. It was a quiet recording room with soft lights and clean white walls. Everything looked new and professional. Headphones, microphones, and music equipment were already prepared. Karl and the music director joined us shortly. The music director discussed the arrangement with me, and soon I stepped into the recording booth. When the music started, I focused fully on singing. I recorded several parts of the song, repeating some lines again and again until Karl was

52 Avoiding

Gina’s POVI went to the office as usual that morning, telling myself to stay calm and act normal. Just as I stepped into the corridor, I heard familiar voices ahead.Rosy and Katrina were standing near the pantry, speaking loudly, as if they wanted the whole floor to hear.“Did you hear about the CEO’s dinner last night?” Rosy said with a laugh.“Of course,” Katrina replied. “He got off work early yesterday just for the date. Miss GG is very elegant, you know.”Rosy chuckled. “True. Too bad we can’t get a photo of her.”Their voices carried clearly. Too clearly. I knew they had noticed me the moment I walked in. They did not lower their voices. Instead, they spoke even louder, every word carefully chosen.It felt like they wanted me to hear.“…as the mistress.”“Good morning,” I mustered a warm smile.The two paused and looked at me. They answered with mocking smiles, but I ignored it. I kept my head down and walked past them, my steps steady, my expression calm. But my heart betraye

53 Worried

Roland’s POVI noticed that Gina was avoiding me. It started shortly after she came to work as my assistant. We had shared a kiss the night before, but I was drunk and did not manage my feelings well.In truth, when I saw her the next morning, I wanted to talk about it, but the topic seemed too embarrassing to bring up.I felt that if I apologized and called it a mistake, she might see me as someone who lacked self-control and the ability to own my own mistakes. Worst she might feel used But if I asked for something more, she would most likely reject me.Especially since my family had already warned her to stay away. Although I could not yet tell if I was in love with her, I could tell that my feelings for her were different.I went on a business trip, but she never once checked on me. Apart from performing her duties as my assistant, there was nothing else. I didn’t like it. I see her turn around once she sees me in the hallway. I could take once as coincidence but everytime I would

54 Lamb brought to the slutter

Gina's pov I do know why but once Roland let go of his hold I felt my heart dropped. He had looked like he would kiss me a moment before that but once I mentioned that date he was a different person. 'did he like the lady that much?' I wonder. I had witnessed the date myself but somehow I prayed it was business or a relative. But why? Even if he did not have a girlfriend now, he would get one eventually and given the impression his family had of me, I would not be the one. your first music video is coming up, how confident are you?" He changed the topic. although he owed me no explanation I seriously wanted to know about the lady. "Everything is prepared, given the hype it's should go well," I said. I decided not to mention Emily, and my worries after all he had already done so much for me. Roland looked at me, I could see he did not believe me, I thought he would ask but he simply nodded. .... Emily’s music video was released later that evening. I found out while I

55 Risky move

Gina’s POVThe next day was Sunday. Mum pulled me along to church. While I did not really feel like going, I thought it was better than watching the mess online.Fortunately, my face and name were not in the video, so I did not have to worry about facing unpleasant comments in real time.Church turned out wonderful, and while I was inside, I even managed to forget about Emily and the music chat.It was late in the afternoon, and we had just gotten home from church when Lisa called me. My heart missed a beat when I saw the call. I was scared that something more hurtful must have happened online.“Hello,” her voice sounded excited on the line. I wondered what good news could have happened to make her so happy.“Hey,” I said. I guess the joy in her voice also affected my mood.“Congratulations, we are definitely going to celebrate, right? Which restaurant or bar should we go to? I know a good karaoke spot,” Lisa said.Celebration? What was there to celebrate, I wondered.“What are you ta

56 unconvinced

NarratorWilliams ResidenceBetty came home to visit her parents for the weekend. She hated that all over school, everyone seemed to be playing Gina's music. She felt like exposing her identity, but she knew that would cost her family money. Moreover, her brother, who had been fooled by Gina, might be angry with her.That Friday, she left her school apartment in the evening to go home. On her way, she decided to turn on the music, but to her surprise, the first song was Gina's.“Crazy,” she got angry and turned it off. “Was there no other song in the world?” She could not understand what everyone liked about it. To her, it was just noise.Her drive home was smooth. Once she arrived, “Mum,” she called as soon as she opened the door to the living room, but to her surprise, what welcomed her was Gina's song.She frowned, wondering who was playing the song. Was the song following her like a parasite or something?“Grandma!” Betty was shocked to find her grandma in the living room, humming

57 Drunk

Roland POvI had helped Gina plan her comeback as much as I could. Emily had spent so many resources promoting her music video; nothing would annoy her more than someone else reaping the benefits.That day, I agreed with Karl to hold a celebration after Gina's song went viral and finished on top of the weekly chart. Gina had received many invites, but Karl and I wanted her to climb only the best platforms. Moreover, we were worried that some of them just wanted to take the chance to investigate her identity.Although this song had done well, it was not enough to win back her reputation. I was surprised that Gina took the initiative to invite me to the celebration. After all, even after our last conversation, she was still avoiding me, though not as obvious as before.“It was a risky move,” Mr. Ken commented on the plan we used.“What is risky about it? If she cannot outperform a thief, then how would she grow in the industry?” I argued. I believed that Gina had the talent, and with th

58 Feeling Embarrassed

Gina I woke up the next morning with a pounding headache. I would never drink again, I swore. I had taken a few sips of alcohol before, but this was the first time I drank so much. It took a while to open my eyes, but when I did, the room was strange. The headache immediately disappeared for a moment. I immediately raised the sheet—the clothes I was wearing were not my own. “Where am I?” I tried to remember the events from last night, but everything was blurry. I suddenly couldn’t differentiate between my dreams and reality. I could not help but think the worst. Just then, there was a knock on the door. “Who?” I became alarmed. “Rolando,” his voice came from the other end. When I heard his voice, I was immediately relieved. I don’t know why, but I trusted I was safe in his care. “Come in,” I said. Roland pushed the door open. He was holding a glass of water and some medication. “Good morning,” he said. “Good morning,” I replied, unable to meet his gaze. A few ass

59 All the trouble

RolandWatching Gina’s flushed face made me inexplicably happy. Last night, however, had been a complete disaster.After we arrived at my apartment, she woke up and seemed sober enough, so it never crossed my mind to call my maid over to help. My assistant had already brought a change of clothes for her, and I thought that would be the end of it. Who would have guessed that the moment we stepped inside, she would start acting completely out of control—holding my face, squinting at me seriously, and calling me handsome as if it were the most important discovery of the night.I guided her to the guest room and helped prepare a bath for her. She insisted she could manage on her own, so I stepped out. A moment later, I heard a loud splash.I knocked on the bathroom door and asked if she was okay. There was no response.Worried, I rushed inside. Gina was lying at the bottom of the tub, half-submerged, water spilling over the edges. My heart nearly stopped. I pulled her out immediately—than

60 Spoiled Brat

Gina’s POV When I returned home, Mum was smiling brightly. “Should I be getting ready for wedding bells?” Mum joked as soon as I walked in. “Mum,” my face flushed. I could not help but remember the embarrassing things I did the previous night. “What, Mum? You two have been dating for over three years. Why can’t we talk about marriage?” Mum asked. “Alright, but we are yet to get approval from his family,” I found an excuse to end the conversation about marriage. Then it hit me—why had Roland taken me to his place instead of bringing me back home? “In a while, they will realize how good you are,” Mum said. I smiled. Every mother thought her daughter was the most amazing, so I did not take it to heart. Days went by peacefully. I went to work at Prime Entertainment as usual. Now that my song was out, all that was left was the right kind of promotion. I did not go out much. Karl only allowed me to attend two shows. Their offer was huge, and they also signed a consent form t
