CELESTIA’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEW“Let us go home. We have been here for days. Come home with us to have a deep rest away from all of these.” My mum said when Thomas’ father asked us all to return home.“No” I shook my head.“What do you mean no? Everyone is returning home to renew their energy. You can not be there for anyone or even take care of them if you, yourself is not in a good shape. So come home with us.” She said.“No, I am going to Thomas’ house. I want to be there henceforth until he recovers.” I said and sat straight in the seat removing my head from her shoulder.“Are you still on this? Who is going to look after you over there? There is pretty much nobody there and judging from how those rogues were able to penetrate and enter the house, it is not safe to stay in for now.” She refused.“The security in the whole estate has been doubled if not tripled. Moreover, I can always get domestic helps from the company the Robinson’s hire from.” I argued.“I will go stay wit
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWWe eventually disengaged from the kiss. I looked intensely into her eyes then looked downwards on her lips. She drew me in to give another kiss. I stopped her this time as it was getting intense. “What was that?” She asked looking down. She was probably feeling shy and embarrassed to look me in the eye.“I have no idea.” I said truthfully but without thoughts. I did not know what came over me and made me kiss her. “You just gave me one of the most beautiful and intense kiss ever yet all you could say is you have no idea?” She said angrily finally looking me in the eye and her voice was a bit getting louder too.“Shhhh…” I shushed her, “You do not want to attract attention to us. I am sorry I said that. It slipped out of my mouth before I could even catch it. I said.“What exactly does that mean? Do you have feelings for me or not? Or you are scared of acknowledging it? What exactly are you scared of, Edward? You can not tell me there is nothing be
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEW“What happened?” Tony asked.“I kissed her.” I told him with my eyes fixed on the road as I drove.“Wait, what? You kissed her or she kissed you? I think you are mixing things up here.” He said and clapped his hands dramatically.“Tony please. I did. I mean I made the first move but I still do not understand how it happened. She even tried to stop me at first but I pushed on.” I explained.“Wow, that is some serious stuff right there. I suddenly feel heat in this car. Is your air conditioner on?” He acted dramatic that I wished I had not told him but it was not like I had anyone else to talk to.He continued, “She even tried to stop you but you pushed on? I need to give it to you, Edward, you are the bomb! Were you not the one going on about how she is not the woman you love so you do not want to have anything to do with her or lead her on? So what is this?” He asked mockingly and started laughing. Tony could be annoying most times but he was also
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEW“Oh that? I just did not want them to know I was coming with you. Moreover, you needed someone to be by your side and take care of you since you have refused to get a woman.” I knew it. I knew she was going to talk about women since she saw Celia earlier.I rolled my eyes but did not respond to what she said. Instead, I asked for my food, “I can perceive some tasty aroma from the kitchen direction. I am famished. I really would not mind eating now.” I yawned to further prove how hungry I was.“That is not a problem, go shower then come downstairs. I would have set the dining for you. Also, please come with the full gist of who the lady at the hospital earlier today was.” She said with a smirk on her face as she rose to go to the kitchen immediately before I could even protest.I went to my room upstairs and had a quick shower. Then later returned downstairs, true to what she said. She had dished the meal for me and for herself at the dining.I joi
CELIA’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWWe soon left the mall after getting enough to our satisfaction. I checked the time. We had successfully spent an extra hour at the mall. I was going to take what Doris said about giving Edward the benefit of doubt and wait till he was able to sort out his feelings. The worse that could happen was him realizing he did not love me. The ride home from the mall was the most enjoyable. I felt lighter too sharing things with my friends and encountering Edward really put things in perspective for me.We soon got home, returned dad’s platinum card to him.“You all really seemed like you enjoyed the little hang out.” He remarked as Doris and Franca kept smiling sheepishly.“Of course sir, the breathe of fresh air was perfectly what Celia needed and us.” Franca said.“It is too late, why not spend the night here?” My mum suggested. “You can get the chef to serve you dinner. That is if you had not eaten already. We will contact your parents on your behalf and
CELESTIA’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWMy eyes flipped open with the rays of the sunlight penetrating through the soft linen curtain of the window. I squinted my eyes and turned to the other side of the bed as I stretched and yawned noisily. I sat up and saw that Grace was still sleeping peacefully. I got out of the bed and checked the time. It was still a little early as we were about an hour from the usual time my alarm clock woke up usually. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face. By the time I got back to the room, Grace was also awake but laid there in bed. “Hey, Good morning.” I greeted.“Good morning. You are already awake. Girl, I am so tired. Every of my joints ache like crazy.” She lamented.“Aw sorry about that, will you stay back at home then? There is not much to do after all. We will decide on what to do at the hospital then I will go to the company together with Smart to see how things are fairing. Just let me know where the reports you worked on are
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWSome uniformed men came into the hospital and went into the doctor’s office. Not too long after, they moved three patients into some vans with “Ambulance” inscribed on it with the help of some of the staff. They must have come with the ambulances themselves as they were parked right at the entrance of the hospital. I guessed the patients were the suspects they said were going to be transferred to the police infirmary. I called on Taylor to come with me as he already requested to let me take him with me when I was leaving. He wanted to get away from the hospital air for a while leaving behind his parents and my mother. I bade them goodbye to return shortly later to finalize the documents to move Pa Robinson and Thomas.I headed to my gallery with Taylor to attend to whatever my assistant was being dramatic about earlier on the phone.It took a while before I got to my gallery’s neighborhood. I branched a restaurant to grab something for Taylor to ea
CELESTIA’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWGrace, Smart and I got to the company. The staff welcomed us and were really respectful although I noticed from the moment we stepped into the building how rowdy it was. Everyone was up and doing that it did not feel usual or normal.“Is it always this rowdy in the company? I have not witnessed such a busy day as this.” I whispered to Smart.“I can not say for sure but it has been this way a couple times especially when we have a big project we are chasing.” Smart said as he looked around.“Big project, I do not think there is any of such as it would have definitely passed my table in your absence.” Grace added as we all got into the elevator and went to the topmost floor where our offices were located. We received same reception from the workers there. When we passed by Thomas’ office, I felt a sharp pain in my chest on seeing it locked. His assistant also seemed busy in his own little cubicle-like carved out as office for him. I swallowed the p
