My feet got sore until I couldn't run again, I fell and rose again. I didn't pay attention to the blisters on my feet as I ran.
"Here she is. Do you think you can run forever? We got you at last!" A voice spat in the air grabbing my arms roughly and throwing my back on the floor. Sounds of footsteps walk closer to me.
"Tie and bring her here to me." I looked up in pain but to my surprise, I saw Adams William, Heir to the king of Icelandic.
The men dragged me away to where Adams William sat. "Now strip her" He ordered, his voice icy. He widened his chin as he watched them tear my clothes roughly revealing my tongs.
My eyes glistened with tears and I cried out, "No! Why would you do this to me!". Immediately, my chin suffered a blow while I spat out blood and he chuckled. He picked up the glass of rum that was beside him and took a sip while nodding his head and smiling.
He kicked me down on my knees and lifted his chin up and in a cackle, he said, "You want to know why? Since the first day I met you and since the moment you walked down that aisle and took the ring into your fingers I was never happy. You think I loved you? Your property and your father's wealth were what I wanted. I've killed them all. So no one would ever have to think of you."
My blood ceased to flow for a minute as he spoke and I pulled out the ring from my finger and threw it at his face the moment I heard that he killed my parents.
Forcing myself up the thugs pulled me down and one slammed my head with an unknown object. The rest of everything that happened was unknown to me.
I opened my eyes to see myself alone, in a pool of blood. As my eyes opened, I wondered, "What am I doing here?". At that point, my brain felt hazy and I couldn't remember anything that happened previously.
My eyes watched the trees that danced gracefully above my head and in a few minutes, flashes of the previous things that happened replayed in my head. "Fuck him!" I cried and began to crawl out of the thick forest where I found myself.
"Ugh!" I yelled in pain and crawled out. Luckily enough for me, I sighted the road from where I sat to rest under an oak tree. Forcing myself up, I staggered to the road after multiple falls.
As I sat there contemplating how I should get out of the forest, a car drove and stopped by my side. The door opened and a heel stepped out of the car, "Bring her in. She looks so weak! Adams needs to be killed." The lady said and two ladies who also came out of the car carried me up from the ground gently and put me into their car.
One of the ladies brought out cookies from her bag and stretched it to me, "Here have this." I got the cookies which she opened and handed over to me. "Who are these two?" I thought. Still in fear and shock.
"We are sorry about what happened and we are going to do everything to make sure that Adams goes down for what he did." The lady who sat by the wheel cursed as she turned back to look at me.
"I guess they are good. But who are they?" I thought.
After what seemed like an hour, they drove into a building. We all stepped out of the car and I was led into the house.
As I entered the living, I realized where I was. "Welcome home child" Mrs Flaw called immediately she saw me.
"How the fuck did I get here in the first place!" I screamed in my head and without a word to her, I was directed to a room which was prepared for me. In that room, I was made to take a cold shower.
While in the shower, tears rolled down my eyes, "I was in the hospital! I was carrying his baby! Why would he do this to me!" I cried as tears rolled down my eyes. I laid in the bathtub for a while but was called out by Jarvis, "You are wasting too much time In the shower!"
Immediately I heard her voice, I rinsed myself and wrapped myself around a towel. I opened the door and Jarvis mumbled, "I was bothered about you. Take this and eat."
I looked at the food that was dropped on the table in the room, "Why are they acting so nice? What is this family up to?" I thought as I took a scoop of the food in my mouth.
The Watson family was related to the Williams family. Long ago, the Watsons and Williams were just one thick bond of a kind. My husband, Addams was forced to marry a member of the Williams family which he refused. Addams swore over his life that he was never going to marry anyone except me.
At that moment, I and Addams were already dating and cooked up in love not until the night when he asked me to kill the second child which I had for him by aborting.
At first, I thought it was a joke because why would he do that? He never asked me to abort the other three children which I bore for him then why now?
Upon my refusal his attitude towards me changed, he prevented me from seeing my kids and prevented me sometimes from eating.
One day, I decided to run away because the calm and handsome man whom I loved was now a monster. I escaped from the house successfully but he caught me and chased me into the woods.
My family, which is the Smiths, according to Addams, has been killed by him and I am the only surviving one now in the Watsons family whom my parents never liked.
As I toyed with the food, Jarvis whom I thought had left the room snapped me out of my reverie. "What are you thinking? Addams? You shouldn't think about him for now. Be grateful that you are alive and here."
I sighed inwardly and rolled my eyes as I looked up at Jarvis. "I know!" I replied, taking a scoop of the meal into my mouth. "I just need some space Jarvis, I'll be okay," I added bluntly as I watched her nod in approval and turned to leave.
Immediately Jarvis left, I smiled and pushed the food aside. "It's time to plot, I need to get out of this Watson's house. Papa always warned me about them."
I stood up and paced around the room, with my hands on my head which slightly felt painful. I tapped on it. The door opened as I was still thinking about my escape plan, "Ava get dressed. Your attention will be needed in the living room soon."
Looking at the person who spoke, I recognized that it was one of the ladies who drove the car. At that moment, my heart started pumping with the speed of light, and I thought, "Why do I feel something is wrong?"
A Few minutes later, Jarvis came inside the room without a knock on the door. "Take this! Wear!" She said handing over a folded blue dress that smelt like dust and something that hadn't been worn for ages.
With my arms crossed as I stood, I asked, "What's this clothes for?". Jarvis glared at me and retorted, "Stop asking questions and obey! Take these clothes and put them on right now!" Her tone was commanding as she spoke.
I brought the blue dress closer to my nose and dropped it on the bed. "What are they for?" I repeated, folding my arms and glaring at her.
Jarvis shot a glare at me and ran out of the room angrily, and I wondered, "Running out to do what? What is she going to do?"
A thought flashed through my head and I ran to the window and looked out at it. The height was a long one but still, I dragged a stool that I saw behind me, "What if you jump down and for at once, this is one of the hundred ways to die," a voice in my head echoed.
"I'd rather die than put on those clothes and I am not afraid of death either," I said in between breaths as I looked up and saw a rope that was hung at one corner of the room.
Running towards the rope, I grabbed it tied it, and set it low and as I crossed my legs to climb, the door opened. As I looked at the door, Jarvis, Mrs Flaw, and other members of the household came in.
"Stop here now!" Mrs Flaw commanded, but I had already crossed my legs over and before one of them could run to stop me, I was already sliding down. My heart thumped as I got closer to the ground. As soon as my feet touched the ground, I took to my heels.
The distance to the gate was so long, as I ran, I looked back and saw that the Williams were still chasing me from behind.
I could feel my head spin as I ran and my leg got weak, I dropped down on my knees and I shut my eyes. Every other thing was unknown to me, I saw myself in a new world.
My head felt something icy wrapped over my head, I tried to open my eyes but they felt weak, "She's awake now I guess"
"Why was she planning to escape?"
"Just look at her"
Voices echoed from the background, opening my eyes I saw the Williams family gathered around me. "Thank goodness you are awake." Mrs. Flaw said, walking closer to me and touching me on my cheeks.
Looking around, I saw that I was not in the hospital but in a house that did not in any way look like the Williams family house. "Where am I?" I asked, sitting up on the chair which I was lying on.
No one answered me as they all continued chattering as it seemed that they were having a party of some sort. "Mrs Flaw. Where am I?" I directly asked the highest member of the Williams family.
Mrs Flaw turned her neck to me and gave an evil grin and took the glass of wine which I saw next to her. My eyes scanned and it met with Jarvis who immediately averted her face as my eyes met hers.
"'I'm talking to you all! Why is no one answering me?" I screamed at the top of my voice and Mrs Jarvis howled at me, "Don't you dare raise your voice at any of us. By the way, we have put you in safe hands."
My chest tightened as I asked, "What do you mean?"
"You are sold off." The lady who drove the car when they saved me in the woods slammed and let out a faint chuckle. "You are sold off Ava Smith. We are just here to make sure that you are back to being alive before we leave you with your husband, he is in the bathroom taking his shower and is going to be here soon," She added.
"Eww.. please. Don't say that!" I spat on the floor and prayed it was a joke but it wasn't. The Williams are as deadly and cunning as Snakes.
Mrs Flaw winked at them and they all stood up, "I thought you guys were saving me! I knew you guys can't just be good for any reason! You! Just!" I yelled at the top of my voice as they all left ignoring my screams.
"Hey, mama! I don't like to see you scream," A husky voice echoed immediately as they all left and it looked like it was all planned. I turned my neck to look at the voice who spoke, the person whom I was sold to.
"Who the fuck are you! Don't you dare come close to me!" I thundered, pointing angrily at his face.
"Shhhihhh.. be calm! I'm not going to hurt you." The man said walking closer to me, as I stood up on my feet I moved closer to the door while he followed me too.
"Don't you dare open that door!" He yelled at me and I bluntly replied, "I love dares" and slid open the door and took to my heels while he chased me and grabbed me. As he grabbed me, I struggled free from him but felt overpowered by his strength so I lifted my feet and hit his crotch and he groaned.
Immediately, I remembered that I had a hairpin in my head. I slid it out and hit his ass pinning it there and he fell. I took to my heels and ran out of the house, luckily for me, there was no gate to prevent me from escaping, the joy in my heart knew no bounds as soon I got closer to the road.
As I reached the road, a cab drove in my direction and I halted it. "Take me to 5th Smith Avenue. I'll pay you when I get there," I pleaded with the driver as soon as I got into the car.
"Better do," Immediately the car started moving, the man whom I was sold to ran out of the house and I looked back, he had given up already.
In an hour, the man drove into my father's mansion. As he drove in, my eyes scanned around as it looked like no one had lived there for ages.
"I'll be right back. Let me go and get some money for you." I said and ran inside the house. The air stunk with blood and flies flying around while I covered my nose, as I entered a corner, I stepped on a dead body which made me scream.
"You'd have to pay for this Addams!" I cursed under my breath as tears trickled down my eyes. The body that lay there on the floor was my father's body, and it appeared like he was stabbed.
"What came over Adams and what did my family do to deserve all this!" I cried as I unlocked the drawer where some money was hidden. "Thank goodness!" I picked up the bundle of dollar notes and went to another room to unlock the chest where my father used to place some of his files. I unlocked his chest and took them out.
"Go give the man the cash first." A voice in my head advised and I ran out, "Take this. Please can you wait a bit for me to change up? I want to go to the airport." I asked the driver who kept a poker face as I spoke.
"I'll wait, as long as you don't take up to an hour," The man said. With a smile, I nodded and rushed back in, took a quick shower, and changed into one of the dresses that my mom gave to me as a gift on my wedding night.
Quickly, I grabbed a white bedspread, took out some luggage, and picked up my phone which I had stopped using as the one which I used to use was destroyed by Addams in my attempt to escape.
Turning on the phone, luckily for me, it worked but the battery was low. "At least I can manage this until I get a new one," I muttered under my breath as I dragged the luggage behind me. As I got to where my father's body lay, I spread the bedspread over my father's body.
"Rest in peace papa" Those words felt heavy as they escaped from my mouth. My chest burned with anger and remorse, "You'll have to pay for this Addams! You surely will."
I dragged my luggage and the driver helped put the luggage into the boot. "Please do you have a power bank?" I asked as I got in.
"No, I don't." He mumbled and came into the car, shutting the door behind then he hit the pedal.
As he drove, I tried as hard as I could to hold back the tears that gathered in my eyes. With every blink I took, tears rolled down my eyes. "Why are you crying?" The driver asked me, looking at me from the window.
"No, I'm not. I'm fine. Just drive," I replied and let out a fake laugh. "I know you are not happy but no matter what is going on, it's certainly going to be fine," the driver replied and let out a hum.
"Just drive please!"
I was in no need for pity talks and besides, I hated to be pitied. Within thirty minutes, we arrived at the airport and I paid the driver off. With my black card, I booked a flight to New York.
The one which I paid for was the business class. As I walked onto the plane, my heart started thumping and I felt weak. I was going to be leaving everything that I loved behind as some were already dead.
My children, my late dad who never got a befitting burial, and my mom whom I never heard anything from but I was sure that she was dead too. Left in the world alone, I was now left with one rivalry, Addams and the Williams.
The space where I sat was close to the window. As I looked through the window as the plane started moving, tears rolled down my eyes and I quickly wiped them off to avoid questions from the person who sat next to me.
In an hour, we were already in New York City. I took a deep breath in and looked at the people seated on the other side of the planet, immediately my eyes met with their faces, and I averted it.
"No way they are in this plane with me! This is not possible. I'll have to let them leave first before I do," I covered my face and a face cap which I stuck at the top of my purse while packing.
Touchdown New York, I sat down on my seat and waited for Mrs Flaw and Jarvis to come out from the plane.
"What in the world are they doing here?" I thought as they moved out. Taking out my luggage, I slid out a nose mask from one part of my box and I wore it.
As I stepped out of the plane, no one was in the plane again as I was the last person to come out. "Have a nice day," The flight attendant waved as she spoke.
With no idea of where I was going, I paid for a cab which drove me out of the airport. While in the cab, I told the driver, "You'll drop me at any hotel or lodge around"
The old man nodded, and said, "Okay but we just passed one behind though."
"Really can you reverse back please?" I asked, and the driver took me there. When I got there, I paid for a room and moved in quickly. "I'm going to stay here for a while before plotting out strategies to make sure that Addams doesn't get out of this scot-free," I said in my head and quickly it rang in my head that I needed to charge this old phone which I stopped using.
As I brought out the phone to charge I discovered that I didn't carry the charger and that I had to buy one. I dropped the iPhone Xr on the bed and hurriedly rushed out and luckily for me I could see where to buy the cord and charger.
"How much is it?" I asked the seller, "It's five hundred dollars" The seller replied. "Five hundred dollars?" I rhetorically asked.
"I'll pay for that!" A voice said to me, and I turned to see who the person was. The face appeared so familiar as I tried to crack my memory to remember. "Excuse me? Don't bother!" I said to the guy who stood beside me.
"I insist Ava." At the mention of my name, I asked, "Who are you?"
I wasn't expecting anyone to know me in this new place. "You don't remember me? Ava? Okay...I'm Lucas. Lucas Diego," he said, and immediately everything snapped back into memory.
"Oh...it's nice to have you here and finally see you, Lucas." I smiled at him and he spread out his arms and wrapped me in a hug.
"When was the last time we saw each other, I think that was nine years ago. It's wonderful that you still have that beautiful face of yours intact," Lucas, while putting his hands in his pocket, brought out his ATM card and handed it over to the cashier.
"Thank you. You know after we lost contact I thought I was never going to see you again," I replied. "So are you staying here? My place is around. I'd love you to come around even now." He said and I got the package from the cashier, "Thank you for paying Lucas, gracias."
Lucas was my childhood friend back when I was still in the boarding house at Luke's Wake College. Back then at school, we were known as the notorious two friends and we were termed as lovers because of how close we were at school, not until Lucas and his parents moved away to Spain and Lucas never had a chance to say goodbye to me.
"What are you thinking about?" Lucas said, snapping me out of my reverie, and I responded, "No, the memories we had just flashed back. And, I don't think I can come now, I just moved into that hotel right there and I haven't taken a nap yet. I am a bit tired"
"Oh..but that's not bad. You can just come and stay with me. I live alone actually, and it'll be fun having you with me. I'll clear off the bill you paid and .." Lucas said, but I nodded.
"No.." I declined.
"Yes...I insist Ava," he took my hands and led me out. Soon we got to his car, "Let me drive you there. You pack your bags and we'll just be moved to my place" Lucas stubbornly said, he never changed from the way he was.
"Okay... I surrender Lucas. I'll just stay with you for today," I replied and we went to pick up my bag. Soon we arrived at his place, "So you said you live in this big house alone?" I asked.
"Yes, I do." As I got into his house, my phone rang. Looking at the person dialing It read as "Addams!". My heart skipped and I picked up the phone without saying a word.
"Ava, are you still alive? I'm glad you are." Addams said and cut the call without waiting for me to say a word. Lucas placed his hands on my shoulder, "You look scared. Is there any problem at all?"
"I'm fine Lucas." I replied and diverted the question, "So are you still single? You haven't changed at all too Lucas, did I tell you that?" I asked
Lucas let out a soft laugh and said, "I divorced my ex-wife. Luckily I'm glad I didn't have any children with her." His voice seemed heavy with pain.
"I'm sorry dear." Again my phone rang. This time it was my sister's number, "Hello Mabel...Jeez, I am so happy that you are alive." I let out as tears rolled down my eyes.
"Mabel is captive. She is now my wife. Tell her," I heard Addams say. "I'm sorry Ava. He is now mine and I love him. You don't know how much I always wanted him to break up with you so badly before the marriage. All the times I used to come visit we had sex so many times and you never knew. The only problem was to get rid of you and Mom and Dad."
"What? Tell me you are joking. This better be a lie."
"I'm not lying Ava, remember Mom and Dad cherished you so much while I was the bad sheep. I have no regrets whatsoever."
The words I heard from Mabel pierced through my heart like a sharp sword as I didn't know what to believe, " Tell me this is a joke. Addams is forcing you to say this right? Tell me it's a lie!" I pleaded with Mabel.
"No sister, he is now mine and mine alone." My sister laughed and cut the phone. My head spun and became hot immediately after I finished making the call.
I blinked back the tears in my eyes, "No I don't believe this!" I repeated and tried calling Mabel again but she bounced the call on me. "What's wrong Ava?," Lucas asked, snapping me out of my reverie as I was deep in thoughts.
"Just..I'm okay! I'm fine." I lied
"I know you are not fine and you can confide in me, Ava. Remember we were best friends?" Lucas cooed, taking my palms in his hands and looking into my eyes which held buckets of tears and pain.
"I can see the pain in your eyes, you can always talk to me. Even though it's not now, you can tell me later about it, I'll always listen." Lucas added and stood up next to me, pulled my neck close to his lap in a hug, and then he stretched his two hands and grabbed my face up, our eyes locking in themselves. Immediately, tears rolled down my eyes.
"It's okay, it's okay Ava. Everything is going to be fine," Lucas patted me and patted me. After a few minutes of sobbing, Lucas moved to the kitchen to bring me some food.
While he left, I took out my phone and began screwing through my Instagram pictures, my tears rolled my eyes as I see myself and my children in the camera roll. I deleted the one that I took with Addams and began clearing some photos.
Still busy with the task of deleting the memories which brought me pain, Lucas came in bringing my favorite food with him. "Ava, here you go." He dropped the food on the dining table and I stood up, already moved by the savory aroma from Lucas's culinary skill.
"I am hungry already Lucas. Your food smells nice but I doubt that it's going to be tasty." I teased, taking a spoon of the food and chewed on it softly. "I'll rate you a five over ten," I lied and Lucas chuckled softly but stopped.
His face changed into shock, "Look what I found here Ava. Who wrote this?' Lucas asked passing his phone to me. "Read this."
I collected the phone from him, and read, "WE SEE YOU, EVEN THOUGH WE DON'T KNOW YOUR NAME BUTT RELEASE AVA SMITH AND TELL HER TO COME BACK HOME. THIS IS JUST GOING TO BE A TENDER WARNING AND WE ARE WATCHING YOU.
WE WILL FIND YOU AND WE WILL GET YOU BOTH." Unconsciously, I dropped the phone which almost fell but Lucas caught it. "Take a deep breath now Ava, tell me what's going on?"
At that moment, I felt it was best I tell him about the situation I was going through, "......so that's why I ended up here in New York. To start a new life but it seemed like Addams wanted me dead. What's more surprising is the fact that my sister is involved in this. I barely know where my children are and I guess they are still with Addams. I'm just tired of everything," I concluded.
Lucas smiled and flickered a pen as I spoke, when I finished talking, he said, "So what are your plans? You are the next target and that's evident."
"Plan, plan, plan." It rang in my head as he spoke. The first plan I had was to move to a new place before making sure I plot out well for Addams.
He dropped the pen and tapped softly on the table, then he said, "Firstly, I'll get you a guard to protect you wherever you go. You don't need to go out without being covered!"
"No don't worry about me, Lucas. I am a survivor. The only thing we should be bothered about is you. You have no hands here but you are being targeted. Your life is at stake too, not as mine is." I retorted, slamming my hands angrily on the desk.
"Lucas. I have a plan. A good plan. I'll change the way I dress. Stick to a hijab and mask. That's the first plan." I whispered and Lucas let out a loud cackle.
"That plan is so funny and good at the same time but that won't make me stop at getting you a guard," Lucas firmly spoke.
Three days into staying with Lucas, I didn't go out for anything. Lucas got me whatever I wanted as he said, he was doing that to protect me. On the third night, Lucas and I decided to go out on my demand.
Lucas agreed and as we drove out that night, we arrived at our destination and as I stepped out of the car, a hand pulled me flinging me on the floor.
This came as a shock to me, and I could see Lucas hurriedly rushing toward me. He pulled the man who flung me down and hit his face, giving him punches, "Run Ava." Lucas ordered.
"No, I am not going to leave you." I cried and saw some figures in the dark rushing towards us. From what I saw, some were with guns and rifles. Lucas ran swooping me off my feet and he opened the door and dumped me in roughly, then he hurriedly turned to the other side of the car and immediately hit the pedal.
As we drove, bullets were fired at us. The bullets hit the car but bounced back because it was bulletproof."Drive drive drive!" I screamed.
With my heart beating with speed, we drove home, and as soon as we got inside the gate, I took in a deep breath and looked at Lucas. " I'm sorry Lucas," I said, as my conscience panged me because It was my decision to go out that led to this.
My chest hurts, he said, coughing slightly. I struggled with him to get inside the house, "I'm sorry Lucas. Shit!" I said, immediately I saw the blood on his shirt.
On getting inside, I removed his top gently, as I removed his top it became clear that he was shot closely on his arm and the bullet point was just a few inches close to his chest.
"I'm so sorry Lucas...you must really have a superpower to drive the car and you didn't act like you were shot," I said, laughing in between to relieve the tense environment.
"I'll have to call a doctor or do you have one already?"
"I'm a superman. You should know already." He coughed again and held my hand. "Yes ...I have a doctor. "Here's his number and call him, "Lucas screwed up and showed me the doctor's number.
After calling the doctor, he came and treated Lucas and he advised that Lucas would have to be brought to the hospital the following day. After the doctor left, Lucas spoke up, "I think you'll have to leave New York today. You have to"
"What about you?" I asked and he waved his hands and sarcastically he responded, "Hello! Ava .. it's your life at stake and not mine. Tomorrow, I'll make sure you leave. Go somewhere far, you can go to the UK and make sure no one sees you. And you'll have to change your looks. Okay?" I listened attentively as he spoke.
"Surely I'll change my looks but I am still worried about you." Fear of the unknown crept into my heart.
"Don't worry about me, Ava. I'll be just fine." Lucas acknowledged me, then he added, "I have a brother there in the UK. If you want to go there, and I have a sister too. If that's okay with you, I think it's going to be best if you stay with someone. Can you make a decision now so that I tell them about your arrival?" He asked, looking into my eyes as he spoke.
"I think, I'll be better off fine if I stay alone. I don't wanna bother anyone. See the damage I just caused to you already"
"See I was the one who invited you over and I have no regrets or whatever. The only thing I am bothered about now is your safety. Don't bother about mine." Lucas responded and slowly we drifted into another conversation till we fell asleep.
The following morning, after Lucas was taken to the hospital, I flew to the UK. Immediately I got there, the first thing I did was, look for where to change my looks. When I mean my looks, I am talking about changing my face to another different face as this was the only way I could secure myself and also take revenge.
From what I searched on the internet, I found a location where I could conduct a cosmetic face surgery. "Are you sure you really want to do this? You look so beautiful as you are." The surgeon who was in charge asked. I nodded, my heart beating with every breath I took.
"I know I am beautiful, make me more beautiful," I responded, I didn't really know the right word to say to her. "Okay... it's going to take three days before you go back home."
"Three days?" I asked, I didn't expect it to be that long. "Yes, three days... so eat enough food now honey"The female surgeon responded playfully as she brought out a slide of what I was to choose to look like.
Without hesitating, I said, "I'll pick this." The surgeon nodded her head and smiled, "That's a good pick. It would really suit you." She said with a smile and made me rest on my back.
I didn't know when the surgery began but I woke up after three days and that's all I could recall.
As I blinked my eyes open to the light, the surgeon lifted me and presented a mirror before me. "This is the new you."
Looking at the person before me, I felt like a different person. People who knew me would barely recognize me anymore because of the change. Immediately, I took a picture to send it to Lucas even though I never discussed it with him as it didn't really matter. After all, it was my fight.
I sent the picture to him but he didn't respond as he was last seen two days ago which troubled me. I tried to call his line but it was switched off, immediately I began to sweat but tried to kick away every negative thought.
As I was about to leave, a man walked in with his silky suit which stunk with money. Two men who looked like guards walked behind him as he walked into the room, "Welcome sir."
"Why are you just staring?" The man rudely said to one of the attendants in the room and she shivered running to him and dusting his feet before he sat down.
He turned around and looked at me, and he averted his eyes after I gave him a hard glare which lasted up to ten seconds. " You know with that look on your face, you'll really fit to be a model." The rich dude said and stood up with his arms wrapped.
My lips didn't part, as I acted like he wasn't talking to me at all, "I'm talking to you. You look like a model. Don't you talk or are you dumb? Here take this."
He handed over a business card to me, "I don't want it. You can go to hell with it. You lack manners, so disrespectful of you."I slammed angrily at him and got to pay the cashier.
"Don't get any payment from her. I will get that." He commanded and the cashier shook with fear, "Get this..and let me leave this place." I yelled.
"No I'm sorry I can't," the cashier said in a hushed and fearful tone, as she exchanged glances at the man and me.
Angrily, I took my bag and stormed out of the place, "get her for me!" I could hear the man say when I left.
