"Why? Why? Of all jobs,Mitchell!" Mum wailed and I watched her from my chair with my legs on the table and my hands folded behind my head not minding the injury on my arm.
"Mum calm down, just listen to....
"Listen? Listen? Oh God!" She exclaimed and I almost laughed at her dramatic wail. I signalled to Ruby, my sister, to calm her down but she rolled her eyes and I sighed. Seriously?
"Mum I love what I'm doing." I said, taking my legs away from the table.
"Oh really? You love carrying guns, shooting at people, trafficking drugs, engaging in massive shoot outs, risking your life? Mitchell what you're doing is the same thing as signing a death sentence. Being what you are is a huge risk. You're still young..you're just 23, why did you do this to yourself huh?"
"Mum listen to me."
"No you shut up and listen to me! I'm your mother and I know I shouldn't be making decisions for you but I have to at this point. I didn't give birth to you for you to join some suicide gang and engage in a deadly game, you have to quit!" She said sternly with the tone of finality and I chuckled..quit? Not in this world and not in the next.
"That ain't gon happen." I said, taking a bunch of grape from the tray of fruits in front of me.
"Why?"
"Because I don't want to." I said nonchalantly.
"Ha! Romeo..are you hearing this? Are you listening to what your son is saying? See the position he is. Look at his arm just look at him." Mum said to dad who was sitting with his arms folded, watching the whole drama and not saying anything since this whole conversation started.
"Mum..it's just a little shot on the arm." I said and she chuckled bitterly.
"It will soon get to a big shoot on the chest, do you think I'll be myself if you die?" She screamed and I covered my ears.
"Abigail your voice is raising you've got to calm down." Dad said for the first time and I smiled and winked. He shot me a glare and I winked again. Thank God this place is sound proof.
"You know what? Come on, come rest. I'm sure your blood pressure is rising by now." Dad said as he went to mum who was busy crying on the floor. I don't even know what to do. I'm a mob boss so what? I like what I'm doing and I'm not ready to quit. Even tho if it means going against my mum's order. I love her so much but I can't quit. There's no way I can even quit. The door banged close and I sank into the cushion. I'll go talk to her when she's calm.
"Mr.Mitchell, ya happy now?" Ruby said as she got up from her seat. I rolled my eyes and stood up. I took a glass of wine in my hand and I walked to the transparent glass surrounding my office giving me a clear view of the city below.
"Why did you tell her?"
"Tell her? Dude you went missing for two fucking days. We went to your house, we didn't see you there only for mum to see bunch of guns in your safe."
"Well, how did she know the password."
"I gave her the password."
"Dammit Ruby!" I seethed, throwing the glass of wine at the wall.
"What? You know how manipulative mum is and besides, I didn't know you would be keeping guns in your safe."
"Just leave .I'm not in my right senses right now." I said and she sighed. She came to me and pecked me on the cheek.
"Don't think too much I know you don't like offending mum. Just give her time." She winked and patted my back before she left. I sighed and slumped on my chair. I ruffled my hair and swerved left and right. She's right, I don't like offending mum. I chuckled at the memory of how I got shot on the arm and that particular girl...that crazy girl..
|•TWO DAYS AGO•|
"Frank you copy?" I asked through my ear pod as I got down from my car. I adjusted the collar of my shirt and I smirked. I walked into the arcade with my men trailing behind me. I sighted King at a table and I took mighty steps to him.
"Red." He beamed as he saw me and I nodded.
"It's good to see you King." I sat down and my men stood at my back. Two sluts came to me and I winked at them.
"So tell me, what have you been up to." He asked taking a sip of Brandy.
"Nothing much, just the normal culture " I replied, picking up a strawberry with a toothpick. I looked round the arcade and I saw my men around in different disguises. Is that Frank as the DJ? It's hard to recognize him in that mustache.
"Wait for my order." I muttered loud enough for my men to hear. I stared at King in front of and I smirked. Too bad he'll be dead tonight. Do you know why he's called King?
Well, that's because he's the biggest and the boss of all mobs - he's the King in this game and in this game, you have to get rid of the top dog to be the top dog and that's what I'm doing tonight.
"Three,two and...
I made eye contact with Frank and I nodded slightly.
"One."
At at my command, a gunshot blasted and everyone got disordered..time to strike.
Well, this is my plan. I had my men disguised here because I didn't wanna raise suspicions. They're gonna engage in a shootout and I will be the "hero". T'm gonna act like I'm saving King and then..boom!I'll kill him afterwards. He's 65 and he can't walk properly, making my job easier.
"What the fuck is happening?" King exclaimed as he got under the table. Other mobs have joined the shoot.
Well, who the hell wants to die? No one, so they have to.
"We need to get you out of here." I yelled. Yelling because if how loud the gunshots were. I took a a gun out of my suit and cocked it. I pulled him out from under the table and I took his hands as we shot out way to the door. Do you know what's funny about all these?
I'll tell ya, other men in this room will find this a perfect opportunity to kill King because everything is in chaos. His men are busy shooting in order to keep breathing, no one is available to protect him but he has me, for now that is .
I shot a man trying to pull his gun out. I pushed King under a table and I stood on it. I took out my pocket knife and I smirked. Time to dance. I jumped on the pool table and I threw the knife into a man's throat.
"Get the fuck here and help me." I said to my men and in no time, they came to where I was. I left the motherfuckers for my men to take care of and I left with King. We rushed to my car and I drove off with him..
"Thank you Red." He said and I smirked
"Anytime."
I looked at the front mirror and I saw two cars chasing us..this is about to get bumpy.
"You can drive right?"I asked
"Yes."
"Good, take the wheels."
I released my hands from the stierring wheel and he quickly held it. I went to the backseat of the car and I raised it up revealing all kinds of guns. I took a combat rifle and I cocked it. I opened the door of the backseat and I gave a fuck you sign before I started firing. Okay, two cars with two shooters each..hmm..not bad.
They fired at me and I kept dodging and using the door of the car as shield.
I targeted at the head of the first driver and I fired straight into his skull. The car lost balance and it hit the second one causing them to both roll into each other and crash over the bridge. Well, that was a beautiful sight to behold.
I went back into the car and I told King to shove over. I took over the driving and I drove a distance before I finally stopped.
"Get out." I said coldly.
"What?"
"Get the fuck out!"
He gulped and scurried out of the car. I took my pistol and I got out of the car. I pointed my pistol at him and he shivered.
"Wha...what are you doing?"
"What does it look like King?" I said with a smirk. He pulled out his gun and tried to shoot but I kicked the gun out if his hands.
He tried to run but I shot his two legs making him to crash on the ground.
"Oh king king king." I said as I strode towards him. I bent to his height and he glared daggers at me. I chuckled and patted his head.
"You didn't see this coming did ya?"
"You motherfucking betrayer." He seethed in pain and I tsked.
"You are talking about betrayers when you're the leader of that particular group. You sent one of your minions to my own abode to steal informations from me. You turned my followers against me..why?Because I'm more intelligent than you are?" I said and he had a shocked expression on.
"Oh, you're surprised? Well, don't be. I'm Red, I know everything and I also know that in less than 20mins, your son will be here because he knows I have his poor little daddy here. Don't get me wrong he's not going to come to save you, he's going to come so he can end your life and I won't let that happen because I wanna kill you myself and because I don't want you to die of inheartbreak. Seeing your own son betraying you and killing you with his own hands. Isn't that so heartbreaking?" I said in a sad mocking voice. "Well, I'll save you the heartbreak. .Good bye King, greet the devil for me. Tell him I'll probably join you guys in hell in the next 50yrs." I said with a smirk and I drove 3 bullets into his skull. Eww, ruptured skull..
I took out my sticker and I glued it on his mouth..
The sticker that says "RED"
I stood up and I saw a car rift to a stop in front of me..knew the motherfucker would come.
"Nas, I didn't expect you to come this early." I said tucking my gun at the back of my pants.
"You maniac!" He tried to punch me but I held his hand Midway and gave him three straight punches to the face.
"Look, I just killed almighty King. I don't wanna kill his precious son you know." I said and he removed his hand from his bleeding nose..
"Here, take a tissue and wipe that thing off your nose. It's making me wanna puke."
I stretched a tissue to him and he wanted to shoot me but I was fast enough to kick the gun out of his hands and elbow him on the stomach. I gave him two kicks to the face and I smashed his head on the windscreen of the car...
"You're one pathetic human being Nas and I'll end your pathetic life for you."
With that, I shot him twice on the head and I spat out. I placed my sticker on his head and I dusted my hand. I wanted to enter my car but I got interrupted by the siren of the police..great...just great! Five police cars parked in front of me and I hummed in interest.
"Put your hands behind your back and kneel down."
One of the Santa Clauses said and I flicked my tongue. Not that they could say me do that anyways, I'm always masked in my red mask. It covers my nose down to my jaw.
I turned and put my hands behind my back with a smirk. Can't wait for this to go crazy. The one that was ready to die came to me and tried to hold me..
"Hi." I said and he looked at me like I was crazy..
"Goodbye." I said against and before he could react, I grabbed the cuffs from him in a swift and disfigured his face with it. I used the man as a shield and I smiled at the shocked faces of the santa clauses.
"You shoot, he dies..you know that right?"
"Shoot him!"
What? I'm using one of them as shield right now but the commander is saying they should shoot? Even the others tried to oppose.
"But sir, we'll shoot him with Red."
"Yeah..you better listen to him." I said..
"I said shoot him!!!"
Okay, maybe this Commander isn't so nice. They all started shooting and the poor guy received the first round of bullets. I hid behind my car and I brought out two guns. With twelve bullets in each.
I got out of my hiding place and I shot down four police in a flash.
I dodged as many bullets as I could and I shot at them. I tried to shoot again but my gun clicked. Oh oh..
The commander smirked and cocked his gun. There are 2 police men remaining and that includes the commander. He shot one at my chest and I groaned. The force made me swerve to the back. He shot another one and I went further to the back. He shot another one to my tummy and I groaned. My back is already at the railings of the bridge. He smirked and shot the next one to my arm and I lost balance. He came to me and pushed my off the bridge. Oh well, and that was where my life ended..
Just kidding, I'm Red, I never die. I splashed into the river and I took off my suit jacket. I tore my shirt and tied it on my wounded arm. I took off my bullet proof. Yeah, I was wearing it all along. I took it off along side with my mask and I swam off, destination, I don't know.
It wasn't long before I found the river bank. I crawled out of the river and I collided with the soft sand. It's probably midnight or late night right now.
I got up to my feet and I started walking. This place looks like an island. I walked along a bushy path and I took out my phone from my pocket. Thank God it's is water proof. I switched it on so as to be easily located.
I kept on walking and I quickly hid when I felt someone pass between the bushes. I sneaked quietly and I saw a person picking up woods..I sneaked to the back of the person I wasled quietly to the feminine figure and I covered her nose. I pulled her away from where she was to a more secured place. I left her mouth and immediately, I felt a sharp pain on my groin.
"Fuck!"I groaned in pain.
She picked up a stick and wacked me continuously.
"You..good..for..nothing...motherfucking...dickless scumbag." She said and continued to wacked me as she said each word.
"Lady just chill..I...
She didn't let me finish my statement as she continued to wack me. I got furious and grabbed her hand, smashing her back on a tree.
She stood up breathing heavily. She wiped her mouth with the back of her palm and her eyes went to my arm.
"Bl..blood?" She said as she came towards me.
"What...what the hell happened to you?" She asked and I hissed before turning to leave.
"Wait, I can treat you. Your arm is loosing a lot of blood numskull. Stay, I'll be back." She scurried away and I looked around before I sat on the ground. She came back after sometime with a white box. She sat beside me and she removed the blood soaked shirt I used to wrap my arm.
She wiped the blood around my arm with a tissue and I just watched her do her thing. Is she a doctor?
She soaked tissue into methylated spirit and she breathed in.
"This will hurt." She said and before I could say anything, she placed it on my wound.
"Fuck! Why didn't give me a headstart!" I yelled
"I told you it'll hurt!" She yelled back.
I hissed and she rolled her eyes before picking something like scissors. Tiny scissors, she placed it on the face of the would and she successfully picked out the bullet.
She cleaned it up and she bandaged it.
"What kind of job are you doing that you got shot?"
"Why don't you keep your stupid mouth shut?"
"If that's your way of saying thank you then, you're welcome pussy." She said and I scoffed..I can never say that.
She went to dispose the used tissues and then, she came back
She sat beside me and she passed me a canned Pepsi.
"What do they call you?" she asked but I ignored her.
"Hey! No one ignores me when I talk!" She snapped and I turned to look at her with venomous eyes. She shivered and I smirked..good!
She rolled up her sleeves and I marveled at the tattoos on both of her arms.
"Did you get lost?" I asked.
"Well, I ran away form camp." She said with a shrug.
"Camp?"
"Yeah, school camp, we were going on a treasure hunt and I took that as an opportunity to run away because I was bored. I planned to return but...I lost my way and I can reach them because my phone is dead."
"Crazy." I said and she chuckled
"Yeah..so how did you get here?"
"Long story that I don't wanna say." I said and she eyed me before lying down.
"Rubbish." She muttered and I gave a lopsided smile. I laid down with my hands folded behind my back and I sighed. I brought out my phone and I saw a message from Frank.
...coming...
I hummed and kept looking at the moon... I just can't sleep.
. |•PRESENT•|
A boat came the next morning to come pick me. For some reason I didn't want to leave without leaving the crazy girl a note so I just wrote a short note to her and placed it beside her and also, I sent a chopper to go pick her. She'll definitely be grateful. I didn't even ask for her name, well, if the universe wants it then, we'll surely meet again..
"Ready?" Frank asked and I nodded before stepping out of the car. We both walked with commanding aura side to side into the underground mob house specially built for meetings of all mob bosses.
They think I'm dead? Well they should think again..
The door was opened ajar for me and everywhere went to a pin drop silence as I walked in with my shoes making majestical sounds as I walked to my suppose seat that is being occupied by an intruder.
"And what are you doing on my seat?" I asked coldly and he gulped before standing up with trembling legs. I sat on the chair that has "King"embedded on it and I leaned on the table.
"Your king is back!"
.
They all looked at me with shocked filled faces and I smirked. They are probably having doubts. I took off my mask and they all flinched.
"Surprised?" I asked with a tone of mockery. "Well, don't be, did you all expect me to die that easily? Awwn, that's so cute of you to think. And also so cruel of you. You wished for the death of me? The sweetest person alive? How could you?"
I gave a fake cry and I bursted into laughter in no time. Thier shocked filled faces made me laugh the more.
"I'm immortal, death isn't in my vocabulary. Death itself is scared of me."
I stood up from my seat and I dipped my hands in my pocket.
"You see.." I began as I started walking. "It's really sad when you realize that most people wish you dead...isn't that right Seb?" I asked with my breath on his neck and he visibly trembled. "You're probably angry because I'm not dead as people claimed because I killed your grandpa and your father?" I said trailing my hands down his jaw. He is angry and at the same time scared but he dare not act rashly.
"Well, it ain't my fault I killed your father. I did because he wanted to kill his own father and that's not right and also, he was getting in my way."
I walked further round the table studying thier faces one by one. They are all scared to thier pants right now. Pathetic fuckers. I chuckled softly at first and then it increased to a loud crazy one. I don't know why I'm laughing this hard today, I'm not naturally like this. I went back to my seat and I crossed my legs leaning back, swerving from left to right.
"Report now!" I said and they all brought out thier suitcases, bringing out different documents. Well, this should be fun.
|•AT ARIETTA'S HOUSE•|
I huffed and puffed as I went in my room with Melanie trailing behind me, yelling and scolding and saying all kinds of stuff. I just wanna sleep, I'm really tired. I got in my room and slumped on my bed.
"Are you listening to me at all?" She snapped as she came inside my room.
"I got lost the very time to began your rants."
"Rants? Arietta, you ran away. Why would you do that huh? You got me worried ,I started panicking when your friends called me that you were no where to be found."
"Jeez ,Mel, you need to start calming down okay. I'm twenty one, I can take care of myself and also, I came back home right? I'm safe and sound so don't worry too much, it's isn't good for the baby." I said poutingly rubbing her 6months protruded yummy. This is her third child she's having..
"You just do things that get me worried." She whined and I chuckled.
"I'm fine okay, don't worry too much." I assured and she broke out a smile.
"Take your bathe and come down for breakfast okay?"
"I will."
She patted my back and left my room. I sighed and sat up from my bed. Melanie and her too much worrying. She's such an angel, she didn't know me yet she rescued me from the slumps, adopted me as her sister. Sponsored me throughout highschool and she's still sponsoring me, she gets worried over little things that happen to me and I can't help but marvel at the kind heart she has. I even told her I wanna get a job because I don't wanna seem like a burden on her. She has two kids to take care of and me adding to it might be stressful but no, she told me not to get a job she said when the time comes, I will but not now. I'm graduating art school in a month's time and she still doesn't want me to get a job?
I'll surely get a job, at least to pay her back. Even if I'm not able to do that, I should at least be able to fend for myself and not rely on her all the time.
I got off from my bed and I went to the bathroom. I took my bathe and I came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped round my chest. I walked to my closet and my eyes went to my backpack. I went to it and opened it, that scumbag left a letter but I couldn't read it because immediately I woke up, a chopper came to take me home.
I stared at the paper for sometime before I opened it
....Hope you got home safely
Handsome stranger.....
I scoffed unbelievably and hissed out loud. I made to tear it but I stopped. It might be useful later.
I wore my dress and packed my hair up before I exited. I went to the dinning and I hummed at the sweet aroma my nose hit.
"Something smells good in here." I said as I sat on one of the dinning chairs. She served my food and I rubbed my hands together excitedly, ready to devour whatever was covered before me. She uncovered the plate and the sweet aroma hit my nose with a bang. I stared at the delicious looking macaroni before me and I oohed.
I dipped my spoon into it and into my mouth it went.
"This is freaking delicious." I moaned as I shoved macaroni into my mouth.
"Told your teacher you're sick so you couldn't make it to school today. You went missing for two days Ari." She said and I nodded
"I bunked at Rick's place. Told him not to tell anyone I was with him."
"Why?"
"Because I needed some peace ya know."
"This Rick guy, you guys dating?" She wiggled her brow at me and I casted her a playful glare.
"Well, I wouldn't say we are but..
"You guys had sex before I presume?"
"Yeah."
"Wow, just...just, that's just wow. Do you even like this guy we are talking about?"
"Well, you see, I once liked him. And you know, he had something for me too but that "thing" we had for eachother wasn't enough. Yeah, he fucks great, he's the best kisser in the world, his finger in my V feels great but...we just don't click that well you know. He's like my best friend."
"Let me guess, he took your V card?"
"Yeah."
"Sigh, look, Ari. I'm not saying you shouldn't have fun, I mean, it's your twenties you should have fun to the fullest but you're also gonna marry one day. You'll soon graduate and get a job and you'll probably have a new boyfriend. You'll have sex with that new boyfriend too and you'll probably break up. Ari I know you, I know you still have up to 10 guys you'll date before you marry. If you date all of them and sleep with all of them....
"Melanie, just because I lost my V card at 18 doesn't make me a whore or an harlot. Who else have I slept with except Rick and that ass hole named Mike? I wouldn't have slept with Mike if I wasn't drunk and you know it."
"I know, don't take it the bad way. I'm just trying to tell you to be careful and not...
"I get it Melanie, thanks for looking out."
She sighed and went silent for sometime.
"Hey, did you see the news today?" She asked and I scoffed.
"What am I? 40?"
"Whatever, but that Red guy has been killed." She said and I stopped the glass of milk in my hand halfway.
"What do you mean?" I asked, gulping it down.
"Well, in the news this morning, it was said that the guy is dead. An officer shot him like..five times in the chest and stomach before he was eventually pushed into the river . I can't believe that guy is dead after all the failed attempts on killing him."
"That's the point! The dude is a god, he doesn't die easily. It'll take more than a decade to kill him..I'm sure he isn't dead."
"Isn't dead? He took almost 5 bullets to the chest."
"Exactly, Red always makes things that ain't possible very much possible. So I won't be surprised if news comes out tomorrow that he's alive."
"I don't really get it..is that guy an assassin?"
"He's not Mel, he's something more dangerous than an assassin. Rumours are around that he's as devilish as the devil himself, in fact he's the devil. He feels nothing, he's strong and hard as a rock. he cuts quick with his blade and thinks fast unafraid..he..
"Okay quit the drama." She said and I chuckled.
"But seriously, I heard that he's venomous." I said and she hummed. I like that red guy, he was only seen once at a very popular bar and he killed 10men at a time without receiving a bullet and without a scratch on his body.
Police have tried to get his location and have always failed. Surprisingly, he was seen last night and some stupid cop thinks he killed him? It'll take more than a hundred cops to take down that dude. Like I said I like him. Not his personality but I like the fact that he's anonymous and I like his badass nature and also his super cool mask. And his name..RED..ooh, sends shivers down my spines.
|•RED'S POV•|
"There's something we saw in one of the treasure houses." Frank said as I took the elevator to my room.
"And what's that?" I asked as we walked side to side.
"Let's keep.going." He said and I nodded. Frank has been my best friend since highschool. He had been by my side form the very day I became a Hitman. We were both partners until I decided to set up my own clan and I became his boss but that doesn't change the fact that he's my buddy. He knows a lot about me and I do too about him. He's like a brother from another mother.
"Tired much?" He asked as we got in and I nodded. I sat on my cushion and he went to behind the fireplace. He brought out a white transparent box and I raised my brow at the puzzle cube that was inside..
He unlocked the transparent box and he picked the puzzle cube. He passed it to me and I stared at it. It looks suspicious, the puzzle cube was disarranged..very disarranged.
"You think you can put it together?" He asked and I nodded.
"I think it's very important so don't let anyone know about this and don't put this somewhere open."
"It's just like you telling me how to do my job." I said and he chuckled.
I started turning and circling and twirling the puzzle, trying to arrange the colours. I did for almost an hour but I didn't get it. Frank has already left and I'm left battling with this puzzle. Whoever disarranged this must be very intelligent.
|•LATER IN THE DAY•|
|•ARIETTA'S POV•|
"Well F you and your stupid restaurant you prick!" I screamed as they banged the door on my face. For three hours I've been looking for a job and all I've been encountering is bad luck. It's either the stupid boss wants to sleep with me, or the good for nothing workers aren't people I'll like to mix with or the pay isn't even worth the trouble. Why can't I just find a job without my pussy being at stake or the pay worth less than the money I get as allowance per day. Gosh ,I need a drink.
I took my bike and I rode to the nearest bar. I got in and I catwalked to the barman...
"Anything to ease my spirit." I said to the over tatted bar man or should I say guy. He winked. Did he just cast me a wink? Rubbish, idiotic creature. I sat on one of the bar stools opposite the bar table and I sighed.
"What are you doing all alone?" Hee asked as he mixed my drinks.
"And why if I may ask are you asking that?"
"Well, a sexy girl like you shouldn't be alone."
"So maybe you can keep me company?" I purred sexily rubbing the back of his palm and he smiled. He's kinda cute if I must say but he's definitely not my type.
"I'll gladly do that." He whispered huskily as he passed me my drink. I took a sip and I smiled as the concotion burned my throat.
"That was goood." I moaned as I took in more.
"Do you know what else is good?" He asked and I smirked before leaning closer, with our heads inches apart.
"What?" I asked seductively, playing with his chain.
"My P man." He said, biting my earlobe and I giggled.
"Really? I bet you wouldn't last 5mins when I ride you." I said in a giggle and he nodded, biting his lips.
"Try me...I can make you feel good." He whispered against my lips. "And moan my name." He said biting my lips softly and I smiled like a maniac. Damn I'm so good and making men look like idiots.
"Didn't know you could flirt." I heard a very familiar voice beside me. I turned my head from the bar idiot to the person that talked. I saw the face of the person and I gasped.
"You...it's you, the crazy wounded dickhead!" I said and he chuckled.
"Ouch." He said sarcastically and I smirked before gulping down my shot.
"More." I said to the idiot and he smiled seductively. Well, he thinks it's seductive while I think it's stupid, ugly and disgusting.
"What was the meaning of the stupid note you left me?" I asked with my gaze glued to the front.
"Well, you're welcome."
I scoffed and poured myself another shot.
"A little girl like you shouldn't be drinking something as strong as this."
"I'm not a little girl prick." I snapped as I turned to face him only to get my eyes collided with a demigod. Why didn't I see this guy's face clearly yesterday? Oh wait, it was dark. This is what I'll call perfection. A special created creature. Look at that sparkling eyes, or is it the flawless skin we should talk about? Oh, look at his perfect sized pointed nose. His lips is super red and tempting. I gulped at the sight of his sexy Adam's Apple. Yeah, I've never seen an Adam's Apple so sexy before. The way it went up and down when he swallowed? Oh my gosh.
"Hey! hey dude." He snapped his fingers against my face and I shook my head and blinked rapidly.
"What?!"
"Well, you were lost staring at this perfection." He said and I hissed..
"Perfection my butt!"
"I will like to squeeze that butt." He said flirtatiously.
"You wish."I said with an eye roll and he leaned closer to my ear.
"Well, make my wish come true baby." He whispered seductively and I pushed him away trying hard not to be affected by it.
"Don't you have something better to do than to act like an asshole?" I asked in annoyance and he shrugged ..
"How about you tell me why you're stuffing your stomach with that." He said pointing to the glass I was holding. I turned to face him and he had a curious face on. Well, it wouldn't kill to tell him right? Besides, I need someone to talk to.
"Well, I went round town looking for a job and apparently, I glitters so bright that scumbags wanna have a taste of me." I said sarcastically and he chuckled.
"They wanna fuck you?"
"That was what I said."
"Well, give them a chance. You don't look like a girl that can oppose to that." He said and anger rushed through my system. What is he trying to say? That I'm cheap? That my coochie is for sale?
"You prick!" I snapped as the glass in my hand collided with his head with full force, turning all attention to me.
"What the heck do you mean by that huh? That I'm cheap? Tell me you fucking bastard!" I screamed furiously hitting his head with a stool. I grabbed a bottle and tried to hit him but unfortunately people came to his rescue and they held me from doing so.
I escaped form thier grip and I casted a glare to the bastard who was looking at me with no emotion.
"Listen bastard, you may deal with a lot of hoes and sluts, you may have fucked a lot of hoes but let me tell you something. Yeah, I'm a bitch but an expensive one, a classy one and the one with pride. And the one who won't think twice before kicking scumbags like you in the ass. You can go fuck your sister you son of a bitch!" I screamed in his face and gave him one last intense glare before picking up my jacket and exiting the bar. That bastard just ruined my night as if not getting a job isn't enough to ruin my day, he had to come. He just had to come..
I rode home furiously, too much for having a quiet night at the bar. I got to my room and slumped on my bed with a thud. I put off my jacket and something rolled down from the pocket. I picked it up and I stared at the card in my hand..when did this get here?
It says..it says Grande Corps...oh my gosh! Grande Corps? How did this end up here? I turned the back of the card and I saw a paper glued to it and it read...
.....Come Monday with this card...
Oh my gosh, I should come Monday? That's after my graduation. Agggrrhhh!! I'm screaming right now. What if I get to work there? Work in the richest company ever? Oh my ghaaaad..but wait...hollup!
How did this get to my pocket?
.
"You're just gonna let her go?" Frank asked unbelievably and I smirked, let her go? Hell no! I'm gonna deal with her stupid ass, she'll know better next time not to try shit with me. She fucking smashed my head with glass! But I like her..she's daring, bold and fiesty and I like screwing feisty bitches. Let's see how long she'll be bold and crazy by the time I'm done with her. She's so screwed.
I got out the bar and I went into my car. Frank entered and sat in the passenger's seat. He faced me and I smirked when I remembered what that bitch did.
"She's feisty. Don't you think she's useful?" He asked, taking his phone out of his pocket.
"Oh yeah I do." I replied as I drove away. This is gonna be fun.
Arietta's POV
Okay, don't get too excited Ari. It's just Friday. Two more days to go and I'll be working in the best company in the world. Well, not sure but still. I'm gonna be done with school in a few weeks and that means ...holiday and no more school.
I got off my bike and I walked into the school. I don't really feel like coming to school today buuuut. I miss my squad.
"Hey B." Clarissa squealed as she saw me come and I skipped to where her and the others were seating.
"Hey Clarry " I pecked her on the cheek and I ruffled the other two on thier heads.
"Hey, I'm not you baby you know." Beck said and I hissed.
"Heard you were sick?" Rick said and I tsked. My squad is made up of two girls - Clarissa and I and two boys - Beck and Rick. We've been friends since first year of college and I'm not ready to trade them for anything. Rick is my favorite..why? because he's just like me, crazy!
"Naaah, just some lame excuse. What happened while I was away?" I asked, dipping a gumball into my mouth.
"A lot. Firstly, Melissa's sextape was released on the school's blog." Beck said and I gasped..
"No fucking way."
"Yes way, turns out bitch cheated on her boyfriend with Mathew.." Clarissa said and I chuckled.
"What's the deal about chics wanting to taste that guy's dick? I mean, he doesn't look like someone that can go three hours straight." I said and they chuckled. Well, Mathew is the school's "popular guy" and some bitches always want the taste of his dick.
"Well, her boyfriend or should I say ex, released her sextape along side with her nude pictures."
"Never knew her boobs was this big and fleshy." Rick said showing me the pics and I cringed.
"Motherfucker." I spat and he smirked.
"So what about you? What did you do throughout yesterday?" Clarry asked.
"Grinded on some dicks?" Beck asked and I shot him a glare.
"Yesterday was the worst day of my life." I said with a pout." Looked for a job almost the whole day and couldn't get any."
"Why?" Beck asked.
"Well, bastards wanted to fuck me. The pay wasn't nice and well, the workers aren't my type. As if that wasn't enough to ruin my day, some bastardized prick insulted my pussy." I said and Rick laughed, making Clarissa to nudge him.
"Hope you showed him who's boss."
"Oh yes I did and I'm still gonna show him more when I meet him again somewhere."
"Where's the teacher anyways?" Beck asked. Well, out if the four of us, he's the only one that takes school seriously. I'm not dull, don't get me wrong but I just don't give much attention to my studies. I just read for like 5hrs a day and I won't read again for the next one month..
"She's here." I said as I saw the most boring teacher in the planet walking inside with her signature ugly frown and googly eye glasses. Gosh I'm so gonna sleep during this period.
RED'S POV
I glanced at wristwatch as I walked down to the torture room. Another soul going today. Can't get tired of doing that.
I got in and I saw the motherfucker tied upside down with blood dripping down his face. He was cladded in only a white short which is already has red stains on it due to his blood.
I walked to him, taking commanding steps and I walked round him in a circle.
"Hey Kent.." I said with a mischievous smile and his face held fear. "Nice to see you too."
"Now tell me..Kent.." I began as I went to a table filled with knifes and different types of matchets. "What exactly should I do to you Kent?" I asked, taking a small sharp knife observing it keenly.
"How should I repay you for what you did?" I asked, kissing the knife.
"I'm...I'm sorry King." He said fearfully and my anger built up in a speed.
"Don't fucking tell me sorry!" I yelled furiously, dipping the knife into his left eye and yanking it out forcefully. He screamed in agony and I smiled. Yeah, music to my ears.
"You made me do that Kent. I don't like people telling me sorry, it makes me pissed off. Didn't you think about the repercussion of you betraying me in the first place? I don't need your fucking sorry!" I barked at him and his tears streamed down his face..not like I give a fuck!
"Now tell me, should I kill you?" I asked placing the knife on his navel. "Slowly...." I trailed down the knife down his tummy slowly. "Or fast?" I slashed down his stomach in a flash and he screamed out my name. Ashole, I'm not fucking you.
"I'm sorry please..please let me go.. please." He begged and I slapped him across his face.
"Don't...tell...me..sorry" I said through gritted teeth.
"What exactly are you sorry for Kent? Firstly, you made a very grave mistake when you answered the call of Carlos (Former king). Then you agreed to help him? You stole information from me and you leaked it to him. And then you tried to run away?How pathetic of you!"
I shook my head at his pathetic face and I took off my gloves. I turned to Bruce, one of my men, and I nodded.
"Burn him alive." I ordered and he nodded.
"No..no please..please King.. King please don't do this..Kiiiiing!!"
I ignored his stupid cries as I walked out of the room. Should have thought of all these before he betrayed me. One thing I hate most is betrayal, I hate it with passion.
Arietta's POV
I was on my way home from the paint shop when I saw the most popular mad woman across the road. She's called Madam Chintzy. She's super crazy. Sometimes I feel bad for her because people always abuse and make jest of her. Sometimes, she'll just be on her own - lonely and sad. Sometimes super hungry. I give her food anytime I see her starved and right now, she's starved. Well, there goes my burrito. I walked where she was sitting - on her personal bench. I got to her and I bent to her height. Whe faced me and smiled out her super black and burnt teeth. I feel like this woman was a super beautiful woman before she turned mad because she looks pretty. Even with her super dirty and rough hair, her ruffled face and tattered clothes.
"Here..here Madam Chintzy..have this." I said, giving her my burrito. She smiled before yanking it off my hand. I smiled out tears as I watched her eat hungrily. I stretched a canned drink to her and she blenched out heavily as she finished it. She held my hand and bowed repeatedly.
"Box....secret." she said and I gasped. This is the first time she's talking. She never talks. This is the first time she's talking so it's kinda surprising.
"You can talk?" I said in delight.
"Box...secret." She said and I stared at her in confusion.
"Box..secret..." She said pointing at me with a grin.. okay, what's happening?
"Box..secret..Box..secret..Box..secret!!!" She stared to repeat as she stood up dancing around. Kkay this is getting awkward. What doesn't she mean by box and secrets and why is she pointing at me? I better go before this gets more crazy. J waved at her even tho she was still dancing around screaming box and secret. I took to my heels and I heard her scream box and secret behind me. I ran faster and I stopped to catch my breath. I turned and I sighed in relief when I didn't see her again. I wanted to do her a favour and I ended up chased, wow..just wow..
I inserted my keys into the lock and I pushed my way inside. Living in a house alone sucks. I think I'll tell Clarry to come live with me. She even needs a house because her home is far from school so she has to wake up really early so as not to be late - something she doesn't like.
I sighed as I slumped on my bed, closing my eyes as I remembered everything that happened to me since I was a little girl. My parents died when I was just a little baby. Even though we lived in the slums, we still survived. Growing up in the slums is a battle of life. It's hustle or you'll be a tool of hustle. So I was pretty smart at the young age of 5. Came back home after a play round the neighborhood and I found my home on fire, with both of my parents inside. How it happened, I didn't know. I cried my eyes out. I was just 5. I didn't know anyone except my parents, where would I start from?
I was taken in by a man who had pity on me. He wasn't rich nor was he poor but he was able to cater for me alongside with his wife and 2children.
His wife, for no reason, hated me. She maltreats me anytime Uncle Gleen, my helper, wasn't home and she acts all goody goody when he's home. He goes to work on Mondays and comes back on Friday so yeah, I receive the worst maltreatment 5 days a week.
I stayed with them for a year but tragedy struck and Uncle Gleen died in an accident on his way to pick me from school. His stupid wife blamed me for his death and increased the maltreatment. Long story short, I ran away, fled to Liberty Street and I grew up in the wild. Thank God Mel came to my rescue. What would have became of me if she hadn't?Baaaad..just baaad.
|•MONDAY•|
So..today is Monday. Yeah, the big day. I'm super excited and nervous. I had to go for shopping yesterday because all I had in my closet was : ripped jeans, denim skirts, ripped jackets, croptops, tank tops, bumshorts and they are either black, red, white or combination of black and white.
Even my shoe rack doesn't contain any professional shoe. Just sneakers and more sneakers. I didn't really know professional clothes so Clarry had to follow me. We took some pencil skirts, not long ones tho, they stopped before my knees.
We also got cooperate shirts and blouses, work based jackets. Heels - unfortunately :(
Anyways, I woke up as early as 6am, cleaned the house and dressed up for the day. I wore a grey highwaist pencil skirt with a split at the back and a white long sleeved off shoulder tucked in perfectly into the skirt. My hair is packed in a perfect pony tail with parted bangs. I wore a white heel and took a grey matching bag. Dressed dope for a perfect first impression. Added a light makeup to tone up my face.
I got into my car. Mel got me a car for my 19th birthday. A Mercedes Benz. Gosh!Too expensive for me. I don't like expensive things. I glanced at my wristwatch and I smiled. 7am, just in time.
I started the car and off I went to Grande Corps. I drove into the premises of the company and I wowed at the glass building in front of me. I cleared my throat and flipped my pony tail before I catwalked in. Ooh everywhere looks busy.
I got to the receptionist and the lady flashed me a smile.
"Hi! I'm Maryellen, How can I help you?"
Question: What the hell am I supposed to say?
"Um, Hi Mary I'm Arietta and I was given this card.." I said, stretching the card to her. She took it from me and she gasped as she saw it.
"It's the CEO's card. Sorry for keeping you waiting. Take the elevator to the 3rd floor, walk down the hall, first office by your right." Whe said and I smiled appreciatively.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome..I love your hair."
"I love your nails." I said and she blushed. hmm..
I walked to the elevator like I owned the place and I giggled as I heard the ding of the elevator.
I walked out and as I was directed, I walked down the hall until I saw a wide bronze door by the right. I think this is it.
I took the handle and I pushed my way inside only to find out that I just interrupted a really hot moment. I should have knocked (눈‸눈)
"Oh my gosh..I'm so sorry " I said, startled as I covered my eyes not to behold the live pron scene in front of me. Gosh, sex in the office? 4eally?
"Who the hell let you in?" A cold voice asked and I gulped.
"The receptionist guided me to your office".I said, still covering my eyes.
"Fuck! She should have called me.."
I just stood there with my covered eyes. I heard some rattling and some kiss noises. Gosh just be fast already.
I heard the door open and close and I raised my face from my hand.
"Come forward." The voice commanded and I gulped as I went to the transparent diamond shaped desk. I sat on the chair and I fiddled with my fingers as I watched the man I'm yet to see his face work on the computer.
The laptop was covering half of his face so it was really hard having a clear view of his face. He finally closed his laptop and I gasped at the face I saw.
"You?!" I screamed and he had his usual mocking signature smirk on.
"Hey bitch...we meet again?"
