'Beep, beep' A black Corolla stops at Zora's feet as she stands in frustration at the bus stop.
"It's me!" Zora's step-sister shouts as she wines down her car window.
Before entering the car, Zora gave her sister this annoyed expression, then opened the car door and sat down.
"So... you want to speak about it?" Rebecca looked at Zora with a smile on her face as if it was like a joke to her. "Nope, just bring me home," Zora replied, then looked out the car window.
Her sister never said another word, but started the car and drove away.

Without searching the bed, he got up and went into the bathroom.
As the water from the shower ran down his dark silky brown hair, down to his dark black gazing eyes, running down his straight pointed nose and to his well-shaped soft lips, he ran his hands over his hair then the memories from last night came back to him.
Somehow, remembering those moments made a small smile appear on his lips.
"Damn, I can't believe that was my first time..." he said with a smirk on his face.
He exited the shower wrapped in a white towel around his waist and another towel he was using to dry his hair.
When he entered his room, a disappointed expression was welcome on his face as he saw that the girl he had carried home and had a wonderful time with was not in his bed, sleeping soundly.
He throws his towel on his bed then opens his room door and shouts, "Demarco, get yourself up here!".
As Demarco heard Demar call his name, he said to the other men that were downstairs having breakfast, "Looks like our virgin boss is no more virgin and is awake."
After saying that, Demarco walked away from the guys downstairs laughing, and went to his best friend, who was also his boss.
"Well, good morning, my non-virgin," Demarco teases as he reaches Demar's room door.
After saying that, Demarco was greeted with a bitter expression from Demar.
"What's up?", Demarco asked as he changed from his teasing self to his serious self.
Demar, who was still wrapped in his towel, shook his head before commanding his best friend to come inside and close the door behind him.
After closing it, Demarco leans on the door and then puts his hands in his pockets as he waits to hear what Demar had to say.
"So?..." Demarco asked as he raised an eyebrow at Demar, who was still speechless. "I... um... Did you see the girl I brought home yesterday?" Demar, who has finally started speaking, asked with cheeks red.
Demarco smirked and replied, "Yeah, why asked?". "Can you find who she is?", Demar asked again, with his head facing down on the floor.
"Huh?" Demarco asked with a confused face. "Wait, stop! Did my virgin slept with a stranger?" Demarco asked with a shocking expression.
"So, what if I did?... But can you find her?" Demar angrily asked. "Calm down! And yes, I think I can," Demarco replied as he tried to calm his upset best friend who wanted to look for his one-night stand.
"Thank you, that's all I wanted to know. You may leave now...". "Okay... And go back to bed, moody. After I'm successful in finding your one-night stand, I will let you know," Demarco teased before quickly heading through the door as Demar took up his house slipper and threw it at him.

"What's wrong with my soft teddy?" Zora's male bestie Josh asked as he saw her sad down face.
"I'm fine, Josh..." she replied as she ignored Josh's gaze. "Nah, something's up! You call me Joshy, not Josh!" He burst out in anger as his only bestie called him by his correct name, but since she met him she has never called him by his correct name.
"I mean, Joshy," Zora smiled cutely, trying to cheer Josh up to forget about her down face. "Nah, changing it now won't help! Tell me everything!" Josh demanded as he gave his bestie his grumpy face.
"I can tell you what happened..." someone spoke, interrupting Zora and Josh's conversation. When Josh and Zora saw who it was Josh rolled his eyes cause he liked nothing about that person.
"Hey, sis?" Zora said as she greeted her sister with a weak smile. "Zora, you shouldn't trust Rebecca too much..." Josh said as he folded his arms, looking at Rebecca.
"She's my sister, I have to trust her, silly!" Zora replies to Josh's warning while she laughs.
Josh never liked Rebecca, because he knew Rebecca's true colours, unlike innocent Zora, who couldn't see that her sister was nothing good but the devil.
Josh warns her multiple times that Rebecca isn't good but Zora never listens to him but continues to see her sister as a loving family member.
Since Zora's mother died after giving birth to her, Zora's life was miserable. Her father married this mistress who did nothing but cause problems and blame it on Zora and Zora's father was so easy to believe and punish Zora for whatever lie her step-mother told.
After going through hell with her father and his mistress, Zora came home one day and saw a new face in the house. She was happy someone else was going to endure her pain until she found out it's her step-sister who has come home from doing high school in another country.
Hearing that it's her step-sister, Zora stayed away from her, afraid that Rebecca was just like her mother. But a day came where Rebecca managed to fool Zora into believing that she's a pleasant person and ever since Rebecca has been playing Zora without Zora knowing.
'Ring, ring' the bell rang, which separated Zora from her sister and Josh went to class with Zora.

"Demar?" a voice was heard after the knock on the door. "Who is it?" Demar, who was reloading and cleaning his guns, asked in a bitter tone.
"It's me, Demarco," the person behind the door replied. "Come in. . . ."
"What did you find?" Demar, who didn't take his eyes off of his weapons, asked. "Your one-night stand is surprisingly very rich and attends this college called Greyday college, where she studies accounts and business," Demarco replied.
"Alright, tell the men to suit up. We're going to pay a brief visit," Demar said with a smirk on his face as he closed his gun.
