Miss Peyton sat on the edge of the bed in her room, she was obviously worried."Who exactly is Amber? Why does she have that necklace and how come Maya is her mom?""I would have killed her if I haven't know her before.""Well, all this mysteries revolves round Amber so I must get her to trust me. Then, I'll be able to find out about everything." She said in almost a whisper to herself.*It was lunch time and Amber walked into the hall, all eyes were on her and people even paced way as she walked pass but she shrugged it off."It's their life" She cussedShe went to the food counter and order for a meal. The attendant dropped the tray of meal in front over her but before she could touch it, someone else already did and she looked at the person, it was Adrian."You should politely drop the meal" She scoffed and he did.Adrian got his meal and rushed after Amber. Amber placed her tray on a table a guy was occupying."Mind if I join you?" Amber said with a broad smile but the guy slight
Miss Peyton helped Amber to her room and covered her with the bed spread, she took her seat beside her."What happened down there? Are you feeling sick?" She asked, trying to feel her temperature."It's nothing, I just think I heard something in my head" she wriggled on the bed."Okay, take a rest now. I'll be back to check up on you."She existed the room.*"What is wrong? Any update?" Yana asked as Maya walked in like a ghost that had trolled the world before getting an abode.Maya sat on the couch, a box was in her hand, "Here. I had that waiting for me when I got to the office this morning to get some things" She handed the box to Yana and she opened it quickly.She found a note and a picture of her looking for the boy that brought the box the previous day."What does the note say this time?" She said, throwing herself back on the couch."I don't think you should bother looking for me because you will never find me, even of you find the messenger. A reminder to tell you that you
Maya boarded a taxi back to her home. She inserted the key into the lock, the clanking sound calming her nerves a bit, Amber must have gotten the habit from her. She walked in, locked the door from behind and walked further into the house. She threw herself on the rugged chair and she felt a sharp pain on her butt as it came in contact with the wood in the chair, she adjusted into a more comfy position.She rolled her eyes, her mind blank and thinking about nothing, this infuriated her more. She sprinted up into a sitting position and her eyes fell on a note glued on the television. She slowly walked closer and took it. She glanced through it and read it out."You really do have a smart friend and the nerves to kill my accomplice. It's better you stop because you'll never get to me"Maya squeezed the note and threw it in the trash can."I'll make sure I find you, bitch" She cussed.She locked the windows and went to her room. She took a warm bath that suits the weather and went to be
Amber was walking down the corridors when Adrian walked to her."Hey, beauty. You don't look too well, what's wrong?" He teased with a wide smile on his face."It's none of your business, stay off!" She said, almost in a yell."I was only trying to help" he raised his hands, slightly above his head and walking backwards in a fast pace to catch up with Amber."And who said it was needed" She glared at him and yelled which startled Adrian.He watched in confusing as she marched to her room.Amber shut the door in anger and walked to the window, silent tears rolling down her checks. The door opened, making her look back at the intruder - it was Miss Peyton. She walked to Amber who was now looking out the window and patted her shoulder."I don't know what happened out there but I can assure you that it's going to be fine" She said and Amber leaned in for a hug.*Maya slowly opened her eyes, tossing to the edge of the bed and almost falling off. She stretched her limbs as she adjusted int
Amber woke up to see Miss Peyton seated beside her and she sat up, her hands running through her face as she felt it squeezed - she must have cried a lot."How are you feeling now?""I'm fine. Thanks for staying with me""Poor you! You have so many things to worry about.""Was that lady really your mom?""Yes, why? She isn't the one that murdered your relative?""No but how did you get that necklace? It must have been in her care""My mom gave it to me""Where is it? Lend me for some minutes"Amber climbed down the bed, went to her drawer, opened it and brought out the necklace and handed it to Miss Peyton.Miss Peyton ran after Jenna and caught up with her outside the gate."I'm ... sorry to bother you, ma'am" she said, her hands on her knees and she grasped for breath"It's fine, what's wrong?""This necklace, Amber told me you gave it to her""Really? It doesn't look familiar, I never gave her that. I have to run along now" Jenna got in the car and drove off. Miss Peyton stood the
Miss Peyton tried to get a glimpse of the lady's face but she was well covered. She rushed out of the room and went to Amber's. She saw her reading a novel when she entered the room. Miss Peyton sprinted to her side and this startled Amber because it was the first time she was seeing someone sprinting at such speed. Miss Peyton sat on the bed, examining Amber's body and Amber just moved in her directions like a doll."What's wrong, Miss Peyton? I've never seen you like this?" She said as she let go of her"Did Iris talk to you recently?""Yes, she did. How did you know about that?" She contorted a surprised and confused look."That is not important right now but whatever it was that she talked about, don't do it.""Why?" She snapped and Miss Peyton glared at her for some seconds."I can't tell you in detail now but just don't do it""You said I was going to find my true love here? Well, I did and she's trying to help me on how to get him for myself""You're going to find your true lov
Yana went closer to Maya, patted her back, "You don't have to cry, I already made plans for this. She would be up soon""Up? What do you mean by that?""I know those sending those boxes are trying to make things complicated for us and I know they are going to kill Liza as soon as they find out we have her so I gave her a bullet proof to wear" She said and showed the bullet proof to her.Maya hugged her, "Thank you so much"Yana untied Liza and took her to the car along with Maya. Maya sat at the back with Liza while Yana drove, to her house. Yana's keys jingled as she inserted it in the lock while Liza leaned on Maya and they walked into the house. Maya laid Liza on the couch and went to Yana in the kitchen."What are we going to do about her?""It depends if she's ready to cooperate with us or not. I have to rush to the market, I'll be back before she wakes up" She said and went out of the house.Yana got in the car, revved it into motion and drove to the market. She parked her car a
Amber sat beside the window, expecting Iris. She began to imagine how perfect she and Ignacio were going to look but her fantasy was ruined by a knock."Come in"Iris walked in and sat at the edge of the bed, Amber moved closer as well."So what is it you want to tell me about?""Ignacio is not someone you can get that easily" she bluffed"I know and that's why you're here to help so just say it already""Okay. He is an orphan and his guardian is always maltreating him, that's why he seems so withdrawn""Any way to get him out of his shell?" Curiosity was so obvious in her tone."Love! If you show him that you really care about him and make him feel safe around you, you're sure going to win his heart""And how did you know all of these?""Maybe I should just take my leave" she said and turned to leave"No, I don't mean it that way. Do you know how he prefers being loved?""Do you know why he's angry with you after the fight?""I don't""You made him feel less of a man when you did tha
