Malinda Kristen POV
After hearing that he was popular, I knew we had to go inside before others saw him, he might have fans and if they saw him at an orphanage or something, the news was so easy to spread. "Where are the others," I asked, looking for an excuse to go inside.
"They are inside having their lunch." Annabel, who was speaking to Russeli about celebrity stuff, told me.
"Let's go see them," I told her and Annabel led the way, the orphanage was filled with young, small, short and tall children, I looked at Russeli who haven't been to an orphanage before, he couldn't stop looking at the children, maybe he was thinking how pitiful it was to live here or lose their parents.
He looked at me, so I don't know why, but I could see the apology in his eyes. He was apologi
Russell POVA month later, my father came back from his business trip. He had succeeded in clearing the misunderstanding that arose in the entertainment industry in Japan. He had also convinced a few directors that my next song would be the best.I have a way of starting up a mess and have my father clear it for me. I shouldn't always be the busy one. Well, celebrities just happen to always stir things up to become more popular, and I was on many headlines recently.I walked over to the garden where my dad stood, staring at the lovely bloom of flowers. It was spring and everything seemed to shine, and it was a really beautiful sight to see.There was a light breeze running through our faces, I looked at my father and he seems so relaxed and in his world here, he was old,
"And who is that?" My father asked me with his deep voice.I was not going to lie, telling lies to me was for kids, I was a grown adult now and can love who I want to love, I should have told him it was Yvonne, but what use is it being with someone you don't see as a woman."Malinda Kirsten," I said with a smile, waiting for a warm smile from my father and a grateful applause, but his gaze darkened and became cranky."Which Malinda are you talking about?" He asked with his brows raised and his lips paused in a straight line."The one living in this house with us." I open up my hand in a demonstration with a broad smile on my lips."My maid?" My father sounded annoyed, but I was also not pleased with him referring to her as I
Malinda POVI was called early the next morning by Mr Gilbert Ryan, I walked into his office wondering why I was called by him. Normally he tells me what to bring to him, but this time he asked to see me.I saw his domineering figure sitting on the head chair in his office, as he looked up at me, his cold gaze sent a shiver to my spine and I could already tell that this was not going to be good."Have a seat." He pointed at the chair across the one he was sitting and I sat down. "Don't sit comfortably, you are just my maid." His cold voice rang in my ear and I sat up without hesitation."Yes sir." My knees together and my hands clasped on my lap as I looked down, unable to bear the look in his eyes."A maid is what you are, h
Russell POV. I sat down on a bench in the garden as I watched Malinda water the flowers in the garden. She was wearing a pale green top and black trousers. It was a simple dressing but she still looks so pretty in them. I just ogled at her, but my eyes were sad. She had decided to ignore me and not talk to me. I had gone to help her, but she told me not to, even when I insisted, I knew she still loved me but was doing all this because of my father. Even now he is not at home, she still won't talk to me. Why does love always have to come with so many obstacles and pain? Many things will always stop a sincere feeling. Too sad, but too true! "Is she the one?" I heard an angry voice from behind me and turned around to see Yv
"Your father would disagree a million times." She told me in a sob, but I shook my head and focused my eyes on her. "Who cares! He is only interested in his business and his name, that's his reason, I don't care if he disagrees or not." I said in a rush and squeezed her hands gently. "Malinda," I said softly as I came closer to her. "I have an idea." I searched her eyes. "Let's flee together, both of us," I whispered and she looked up at me with wide eyes and her lips parted. "Let's leave this place, Malinda." "Russeli!" Her brow knitted as she looked up at me with dilated eyes. "We can run away, both of us." I did not hesitate as I searched her eyes, I was ready to run away with her, run away from my father and anyone who wants us to separate.
"If you won't accept Malinda, then I have no choice but to flee."His face changed drastically and he chuckled but his eyes were cold. "Then I have no choice either." The way he sounded made me scared and I braced myself for what comes next. "Guards!"I heard loud footsteps drawing closer and I looked up at the open door and my eyes were dilated as I saw tons of guards stepping inside. I looked at my father, shocked. When did this many guards arrive?It was strange since the only guard in this mansion was the one that always leaves home with my father. Has he prepared this whole thing before having this conversation with me? Has he known I will be stubborn and brought these guards to wait out there?I stood in surprise as they all called my father boos and waited for his
Malinda POV.I felt doctors roll me into the hospital, I opened my eyes momentarily and closed them again, I could hear a faint voice and could see a few white lights, then shortly everything went blank again and it all seemed like I was dead.I opened my eyes again and my eyelashes fluttered, the first thing I saw was the colour of the room I lay, it was all white and so quiet and I turned my eyes to the left and saw someone standing by my side, his face was the normal way it has been, so furious and angry.When I remembered the accident that had happened and that I was alive, I looked to my right, but there was no one else. "Russelli," I called out and sat up immediately as I could see the bruises on my body and my body ached too, but all that didn't matter as I turned to Mr Gilbert. "Sir, I have to see Russeli, R
I open my eyes slowly, this time I didn't try to move, I have slept for so long and I felt so weak, I knew I was still in America, everything I hope to be a dream was all reality, I never wanted to wake up again, but here I was again, with my eyes wide open.This was almost the same thing with my parent's death. They had an accident and I was in the car with them, but I survived and they died. Now I also survived and have lost Russelli, everyone around me dies, anyone I love dies.Warm tears rolled down my cheek and my eyes sting, but I couldn't stop my tears. I wish it was me that had died in that accident with my parents, then I wouldn't have met Russeli and he wouldn't have died, he should have been living his life as the popular star he was, but I caused his death.The door opened and I saw the young doctor I ha
