Chapter 4 : The Contract
The kiss lasted for a minute and his mother was very happy about it, then Nora unlocked the kiss as both eyes got locked on each other then the recording stopped.
Kieran immediately developed more symptoms from being very close to her and kissing her, he was sweating and got a choking sensation along with a rapid heartbeat.
“Sir I.”
He didn't let her finish, he ran off immediately and exited the building as he told the driver to take him home.
Nora wondered if she did something wrong and the crew signaled her to come over which she obeyed.
“I am sorry if I messed up, please forgive me.” Nora went to her knees.
“You don't have to do that Nora, you did well and no one else could have done something great like you.”
“Nora I think you are going to end up becoming a star, the Internet is on fire, Kieran kissed a lady and we suspect she might be the one.”
The crew members were in much excitement but she was the dumb person among them who doesn't seem to understand a thing.
The manager came in and thanked the crew for getting the perfect person for the role and Nora received her pay worth four hundred dollars as a starter.
“Thank you so much, sir.”
“If you do not mind, I would like you to fill out this form. I wish to know things about you and how to contact you after today.”
She didn't hesitate to fill out the form and she kept fantasies about her being a big deal in the movie world.
The crew members also exchanged their numbers with her to reach her always and she was happy but not fully happy, she is worried about him.
“A guy is not supposed to run off just like that right? I felt like I came down with the flu. I wish I could meet him again to find out what I did.”
She left the dressing room and the gossip was about the kissing scene, “I have a feeling the movie is going to be a blast.”
“You can say that again, but come to think of it, the girl got some guts to be able to do that, you know.”
“You know what, at first I was scared that he was going to embarrass her, you know.”
“Yes he did anyway but this time around was different, they kissed and I felt it like my eyes got glued, I wish to watch this on a replay.”
Nora smiled but they didn't notice she was the one since she had already changed to her casual outfit.
Kieran got to the house and had a bath again by scrubbing his entire body shivering in the bathroom and then made use of the mouth wash.
He looked at the mirror and the kiss played in his head again, he yelled so loud feeling chest pain as he looked for his medication.
This time around he was having a short breath and was on the floor rolling in pain.
“I shouldn't have acted it, I know my mother is behind this, she is going to kill me if she keeps doing this to me.” He complained as he tried to endure the pain.
A few moments later, he became himself and started hitting his face acting like a 15 years old boy saying, “I should sue her for crossing her lines right?”

Mrs. Penelope had a drink with her friend after leaving the location of the shoot, “I see you are happy about the kissing scene your son was in?” Mrs. Catherine inquired.
“Yes my dear friend, I feel God has finally heard my cry, let's toast to that.”
She said and they both with their glass of champagne saying, “Salud.”
“But why did he run off just like that?”
“You ask like you don't know my son, anyway I am happy about this scene in the movie, my son didn't ruin your set, let's drink more.”
“Thank you, Mrs. Penelope, the internet is already on fire and I wonder what will happen when the movie is fully out.”
“It will be a bomb.” Mrs. Penelope added and they laughed.
She finished having a great time with her friend and they bid goodbye, “Get me the manager working for Mrs. Catherine's production.” She ordered her PA.
In minutes the manager met with her at a Vip restaurant and he was happy knowing Mrs. Hendrix sent for him, what an honor on his part.
“Who is she? The girl that took the role of Shirley?” Mrs. Penelope went straight to the reason she requested from him.
“Mrs. Hendrix, her name is Nora Remington and she is a nobody and was used as a replacement for the role Anna rejected.”
“So you let nobody kiss my son? What if she is infected?” She acted like she was angry when she wasn't upset a bit.
“I am sorry Mrs. Penelope, it won't happen again.”
“I can forgive you if you set dinner for the both of us to see.”
“You mean us?” She looked at him with a deadly gaze.
“I am sorry, I mean with the lady that acted the role?”
“Yes, if she doesn't show up, I will make sure you get the black card.” Mrs. Penelope threatened him and a black card meant he would lose his job and no company would ever employ him.
“Easy task ma'am, I was lucky enough to get her details, she will meet you up for dinner.”
“I will be at the Castle Restaurant by 8 pm, I don't permit lateness.” She said taking her leave.
The manager quickly called Nora on the phone, lying to her that she got another role to act and to meet with the producer at Castel Restaurant by 7:30 pm.
She could not stop appreciating the manager over the phone, “She hates lateness so make sure you go early.” The manager warned before ending the call.
Cathy wasn't home to share the news with, she started dancing saying, “My dreams are coming true, I love New York.“

It was getting to the time for the meeting. She wore the only good dress she had in her bag, packed her hair in a ponytail, applied pink lipstick, and sprayed Cathy's perfume before leaving the house with a taxi. She has enough to pay for one.
She arrived early and waited for the person to come, immediately Mrs. Penelope came in, she greeted her, and Mrs. Penelope liked her already.
“You are Nora Remington?”
“Yes ma'am.” She smiled.
“Let's eat before we go straight to business.”
They ordered dessert and Nora could tell that Mrs. Penelope is a billionaire.
“Do you know who I am?”
“No ma'am.”
“Mrs. Penelope Hendrix.” The surname rang a bell to Nora, knowing she is the mother of the guy she kissed, fear gripped her.
“Don't be scared and I am pleased by your acting earlier that's why I came to offer you a contract worth twelve thousand dollars for a start.”
She got overwhelmed hearing the amount of money mentioned and was ready to accept as she requested politely to know the kind of job she is to do.
“Well, I want you to make my son fall for you and be his girlfriend then do some magic in his life.” She froze.
Chapter 5: First Night “I am sorry ma'am, do you mean his girlfriend just on paper?” She inquired but the amount is still ringing in her head, the money will do her lots of favor to start a fresh life and also to care for her family.“Yes, you should not fall for him either, once he starts acting the way every man should then the contract is over.”She wondered what Mrs. Penelope meant by her son now acting like every other man, Mrs. Penelope could also tell from her look then she explained her son's trait to her in detail and Nora pitied him.“I could double the money if you feel it's too small, I am asking as a mother, also the rumor spreading is just too much and can ruin his career about him being gay when he claims he is not.”“Ma'am I understand but will you double the money for real?”“Yes, that's a little thing for me to do.” Mrs. Penelope said with a brief smile.“Ma'am, can you give me tonight to think about the whole contract?” She asked politely.“Why not. Take the contra
CHAPTER 6: Am I Ugly?Kieran rushed to the guest room holding his heart so dear and then bringing out his pills to take them and when he discovered it was empty.“No, no, this is not happening, why will you be finished?” He complained trying to catch his breath, he remembered the naked girl in his room when he thought of returning to the room to get it.“After I get rid of her, I will make sure I sack the person who opened the gate and let her into my room.”Nora wondered what the hell was wrong with him, she decided to put some clothes on going out of the room to look for him, ”Is it possible he left the house this night because of me or he is in one of the rooms?” She walked to the guest rooms and he was not in there but when she tried the last guest room, it was locked, and then she knew he was in there.“Kieran, I am sorry if I must have scared you earlier, I mean no harm, and you can open.” She said politely.“Who are you? How did you get in?” He replied feeling so tense?“Open
Chapter 7: He Has To Touch HerKieran stared at unconscious Nora, then he rushed out to get a mop stick to touch her to see if she was going to wake up or not.He used the mop stick on her leg and she didn’t make any sign to move,” Oh no, what have I done? Please wake up, I do not mean to push you please, just wake up, I beg of you.” He cried out but he got no response from her.What I did was the question he kept asking himself then he called his mother.“Good morning son, how was your night my cute son? Let me guess, it was splendid right? Having a woman by your side?” His mother inquired all at once out of the excitement knowing Nora slept in his house.“Mom, please give me a break, I have done something terrible and I am in a deep mess now, I will say it’s because of you cause you let her in here without my permission,” Kieran said looking at Nora and feeling guilty.“Oh my lovely son, I do not need your permission to come to your home, I am your mother and what is bad about a gir
Chapter 8: She Is Not My WifeMrs Penelope was happy and at the same time scared of the current situation her son got into, what if she died? And what if she survives, will it be a good means to get her son close to Nora? Was the exact question that flowed through her mind while she was at work.She could no longer focus on what she came to do at work or see all the directors at the board meeting, she had to cancel the meeting and call on someone that works for her in case she needs some secret findings, his name is Josh.“Good morning Mrs Penelope.”“Thank you for coming.” She said with a smile.“I should be thanking you for making me who I am today.” He replied.“I need you to visit a hospital I know my son will be at right now, I need you to monitor him and also to confirm if he truly brought a lady there named Nora, I want to be sure she is okay before I step foot there.”“I will do that immediately after I leave here,” Josh assured her and she nodded her head before he left her o
Chapter 9: He Is A JerkAt the hospital, everyone was seen busy carrying out their activities, an ambulance was seen rushed in as the nurses rushed with stretchers hearing the emergency, and a man had a terrible accident and was also rushed in.Nora was in ward 15 and the whole room was pure white with a mini TV hung on a wall showing some series, she opened her eyes slowly wondering where she was at the moment.“Did I die? Wow, I made it to heaven, this is good, I never knew it would end like this.” She smiled, still unaware that she was in a hospital.She finally got back her senses when she tried lifting her body and felt a terrible body pain placed her hands on her head.”Ouch, my head hurt.”She manages to stand on her feet,” What am I doing at the hospital? How did I even end up here? This is the last place I should be at the moment.”Looking around the room she was in, she then recalled what happened with Kieran and her and why she ended up at the hospital,”That jerk pushed me,
Chapter 10: Getting Her FoodHe acted like what his mother said was not something he would take so seriously as he focused on what he was doing. He will be having a photo shoot in an hour for a movie he acted in and he made sure to tell the organizer not to keep any lady around him once he comes there.He was unable to focus when his secretary came to his office to remind him of the photo shoot,” Sir Kieran just to remind you, it’s about forty minutes to your shoot.”“I want to ask you a question and you should tell me the truth.” He added and the secretary nodded and he began saying,” If you are the reason behind someone ending up at the hospital though the person will get better, is it a must you get them food yourself?”“Yes, you have to take care of the person fully as long as the person got there because of you and if you are not the reason, you can send someone to do it.”“Okay then and don’t ever speak to me casually again, do you get that?” He yelled and he nodde
Chapter 11: I Am His Girlfriend“Your hands didn’t get damaged, why are you asking me to feed you? I can not feed you and only babies are fed.” He added a funny look which made Nora smile a little but stopped so he wouldn't notice her.“I am hungry and I can’t do anything on my own, do you want me to die before you will grow a conscience to feed me? Is there a big deal there anyway? Is it not just to feed me till I am full, take my medications and have my rest?” She questioned.“I will get someone to do that if you need someone to feed you so urgently and you are starving.”“Are you doing this? Is it not just to take the spoon and fork and then feed me directly to the mouth, will you collapse if you do it? I am hungry except you want me to tell my parents what you did to me, you tried to kill me and they are going to sue you in court.” She threatened him and he didn’t know what else to say or do. One thing is for sure, he must do it because he is not ready to go behind bars and for hi
Chapter 12: Argument In The CarHe left her to get some fresh air because he was going crazy already, he has never seen a girl as problematic as Nora.“Girlfriend? How? I don’t need a girlfriend and I hope my mother is not playing mind games with me. I can’t do this anymore, I have broken a few things just to make sure I don’t make her angry and there she is adding more problems to me.” He squatted thinking of what else to do to get rid of her from his life before she would start feeling too comfortable.He called his mom,” Hi mom.”“Kieran, hope you are good and what about Nora, have you given her food now?” She asked.“Mother, she has eaten and I am calling because of her right now, she is frustrating me, mom, I have never been stressed by a lady like this and I want you to look for any means to send her away.”“Kieran, where is your conscience hum? Don’t you know she is not in a healthy state because of you? Why will you be thinking of means to get rid of her instead of you look
