OLIVIA"What's that sound?" I said in a frightened and low tone as I stood up from the rocking chair by the pool. I didn't know exactly where to go but I went in either way.“Andrew! Andrew!!” I called out repeatedly but no response.“Where could he have gone to, just now?”I went upstairs to search the rooms but I couldn't find him.Something else caught my eye. It was his shoes. They were placed beside the bed and his glass cup was sitting beside it.I became suspicious. Something is not right.First the strange sound and now Andrew's shoes. I shouted his name one more time hoping to get a response but there was nothing of such.I stood at the windows and looked downstairs at the pool but he wasn't there either.“Andrew! Please where are you? If this is you teasing me, please stop it. I'm already scared.”There was no response.Everywhere was quiet. I seem to be the only one left here.I became more scared than I was earlier.“Andrew wouldn't just leave me behind or did I do somet

ANDREWI fucked up.I shouldn't have spent so much time outside.All of these wouldn't have happened.I stood at the entrance as the car with Olivia, drove away.She must feel really bad but what could my mother have said to her that made her like that?I went back in to look for my mother.“So your new employee is the one you've been giving special treatment?” My mother's voice came to me as I entered the house.“I see you are now spending on her and even bringing her down to this place.”“Do you think that's wise, Andrew?”I took a step back. Mother was so quick with her hands. She could raise her hands and give me a hot slap if I wasn't cautious.“Mother, I already explained to you. This lady is not just an ordinary employee. I..............” I began but Mother interrupted as usual.“Yes, yes. I know. The one you helped and later began to admire. Fine but just so you know she might be another gold digger who just wants to force herself into the family. Remember what we had to fac

OLIVIA“Why am I even so bothered with the call?”“Why am I worried all of a sudden?”“Why do I even care?““Stella wouldn't delay to look the other way if I was the one being hospitalised!”“Why would the hospital even call me?"“Liam was there. Her boyfriend or whatever he is to her. Why not him? Why me?”I hated the way I was feeling. I had vowed never to talk to her anymore and now I just got the most disturbing call that she was involved in a fatal car accident.A part of me still cared about her despite all that had happened.Andrew offered to give me a ride to the hospital before going to work.I was going to wait till later in the day but he permitted me to skip work to be with Stella.It was like an hour's drive to the hospital.Andrew was so focused on driving that he barely looked at me. At first, I thought he was pissed at the situation and didn't want me to notice it.But as we arrived at a clearing, he turned and smiled at me. “Don't worry, everything will be fine with

LIAM'S POV“That Stella girl just wants me to look like a fool in front of her friend.”“How dare she?” “Am I not the first person she ought to call?”What kind of game is she trying to play?“Hmmm.... trying to prove smart, uh?”“I would show her who I am!”I don't know what her plan is but I will find out.As I turned, I saw Olivia walk out of the ward.This is my chance to talk to her.“Stella, what is the meaning of this? How did you get yourself into an accident? You don't even like driving!” I said.“What exactly are you trying to do here 'cause I know all of this is just one of your theatrics!”“Please don't even raise your voice at me. I am not feeling well," she answered.I laughed.Stella was one tricky person.Even though I know that! This can't be genuine.I refuse to believe it.“So you're telling me you did get involved in an accident? Interesting, Stella but hear this, I'm not buying it!”She didn't respond.She lay on the bed, mute, pretending not to hear all I was sa

OLIVIAStella is nothing but a liar!”I walked out of the hospital angrily after confronting her.I heard someone's footsteps behind me. I knew it was Liam but I didn't respond.I entered the car and told the driver to zoom off immediately.“Ma'am, is everything alright?” the driver asked.I didn't even bother to answer him. I was glued to my phone as I tried to send a text to Andrew.I was angry and disappointed. I needed to calm myself and someone to talk to.Andrew was the only one I could do that with. Why is she just so mean to me? After everything she had done In the past to me? How could she think of doing this to me?“I'm surprised as well,“ Andrew's voice came out calmly.“I thought she was changed for good,” he added.“I thought so too,“ I said as I played with his hair while he sat beside me.“Why are you looking at me that way?” I added when I noticed how Andrew stared at me.“Don't mind me. I was thinking of a beautiful way to make you happy. You know, just to take yo

OLIVIA“He is not yours and he will never be yours!”“You are nothing but a gold digger!”Her eyes were blazing red as she shouted at me.I stood at that spot paralyzed like I wasn't only immobile but mute as well.I couldn't even defend myself.“Who is this angry woman standing in front of me and why is she raising her voice at me?” I thought to myself.She wouldn't stop attacking me. First, her intimidating tone then her overshadowing presence.Before I knew it, I felt her hands landing on my face.It was a hot slap!!It was as though my mouth began to utter words that I couldn't hear. Before I knew it, I jumped up from my bed, screaming.My hands and face was already soaked with sweat as I pant heavily.“Oh Gracious Mary! It was all a dream.”“What sort of nightmare is this?”Ever since the incident of Andrew and that young lady a weekend ago, I just couldn't seem to get my head off that scenario.Now it appears she has come to haunt me in my dreams.I couldn't sleep anymore.

OLIVIAI fidgeted.Who is this and where did he come from?Andrew seemed so calm.He just pulled me closer to him and stood still.Was this another episode of Rosa but the male version?Am I about to hear another accusation?“What are you doing here?” Andrew asked.I felt a bit relieved. Andrew seemed to know this person with the way they talked.“Elliot, what are you doing here?” Andrew asked again.“I'm here to see Mom or can't I see my Mother again?““I never said that. You can go in. But whatever it is, you have to be quick. We are expecting some contractors.”Oh! His brother. Wait, that's Elliot Huxley? The elder brother?“Andrew, is that your brother?”“Yes, just ignore him for now. Now back to what I was saying.” Andrew whispered.“I need you to crosscheck every single thing that would be coming out of each and everyone's mouth in that meeting.”“There is a big file inside there, it contains the agreement and discussion that surrounds the contact phase and policies. You can ju
