Three days later, WSU**
"Since Rowen is gone, his spot will be taken by Clark.. in the movie I mean" Prof Finn announced in the middle of his class
" Am I really fit for it?" Clark said
"You just have to try it out yunno" Blaine replied
" Welcome to the cast of YOU" Hardin said and Clark smiled
" He dropped his script right?" Finn said
"He did" Clark replied happily
"While waiting for Sapphire to wake up, everyone should practice their scrips, I don't want f*ck ups" Finn said
" Roger that" Jacinthe replied
" Ok back to what we were talking about....." Prof Finn said, continuing the class
Some minutes later**
He left after bringing the class to an end ... The students started gists and murmurs among themselves while waiting for the next lecturer
"So Hazel and Renee are really gone, I almost can't believe it" Clark said
" They deserve it...I mean...what has Sapphire ever done to them that drove them to the point of wanting to inject her with poison" Blaine said
" The only one I pity is her dad, Dr Woods is a nice person, how he had that devil as a daughter is the only thing I find amusing...I mean.... it's not making sense, the poor doctor will be in sorrow" Hardin said
" She might take after her mum...who knows.....I heard her mum died long ago" Blaine said
" Maybe..... heard the burial is tommorow, who's attending?" Clark said
"Fuck their souls and spirits, I ain't attending their fucking burial" Hardin said
" Seth....you need to talk too" Blaine said, touching Seth's shoulder...he's sitting with them...he came to class cos Julia had to force him,,
"I don't know what to say...I won't know...till my girlfriend wakes up" he muttered slowly
" She'll wake up, everyone is aware of that so chill bro" Hardin said
" It's hard to chill" he replied and Clark giggled
"Please... Just talk even if it's a word" he said and Seth sighed
Clark stood and winked at Blaine, Blaine played a pop song on his phone and Clark started dancing funnily, the whole class laughed and he kept it up when he saw Seth isn't smiling..
"Change the dance" Hardin said and he did, he almost fell but held himself and Seth giggled a bit
"So..... Hardin you know how to talk a lot, why aren't you talking?" Clark asked
" Have you ever seen a human talking when an animal is jabbing?" Hardin said and Seth laughed loudly this time around
" Is your brain somewhere in Andromeda?, Should I get it back for you?" Blaine said and Seth laughed more loudly
" Are you a rising star in the psychotic world?" Nadia said and everyone laughed again
" Words have feelings too, stop hurting the poor word.. you look like an upgraded version of a monkey robot in a deserted island" Jacinthe said
Sapphire's lines are just so hilarious that Seth laughed uncontrollably, he laughed so much that tears came out of his eyes
"It worked..I love you Seth!" Clark said loudly, hugging him in his sitting position
" Thanks for making me laugh" Seth whispered, hugging him back.
" Please.... she'll wake up soon, enemies are gone now....no problems so she'll be fine" Hardin said and Seth nodded
Jacinthe looked at Nadia and saw tears at the corner of her eyes, Nadia wiped the tears before it'll fall and left the class hurriedly, Jacinthe followed immediately...
Nadia went to the washroom and cried out loud, remembering their sweet memories together...."how can I be so cruel" she whispered amidst the hot tears, looking at her red face in the mirror
Jacinthe came in slowly and she wasn't even aware of when she did, she stayed behind her for long, watching her
"Nadia" she called after some minutes and she quickly wiped her tears before looking back though a cursory look at her will tell you she was crying
"Why are you crying?" Jacinthe asked, coming closer to her
Sensing that she found out, Nadia let out her tears again and Jacinthe hugged her
"I betrayed. ... her...." She stuttered
"Betrayed who?" Jacinthe asked, patting her back
" Baby fire....I sold her secret to her enemies...I'm the cause of what has been happening since a week ago....I'm the reason why Sapphire is unconscious right now Jacinthe, I'm so cruel and callous" she cried, her tears dampened Jacinthe's dress on the shoulder
"I dunno how you did it but.... whatever it is.... just hope for her quick recovery and plead for forgiveness.....she's kind, Sapphire is the best girl I've ever met...I'm sure she'll be considerate, it might take a while but I trust her" Jacinthe petted
Nadia started hiccuping amidst the tears and Jacinthe stayed till she was done crying
"Wash your face, don't come out with that red face ok?" She said and Nadia nodded
" You're kind too, I wish I can be like you" she said and Jacinthe smiled
" Just be yourself ... Originality is the best" she said
"I'll try my best, I want to be the Nadia I was brought up to be...." She said
" That's the best, wash your face and come out.... I'll be waiting" Jacinthe smiled and left the washroom
She paced around the front of the place and suddenly heard footsteps behind her....she smiled and looked back at once
"Caught you!" She said
"You scared me!" Blaine almost screamed
"You intended to scare me but I did that instead, I'm bad" she smiled
" By the way....what's the name of your lipstick?, The one you're wearing right now?" He asked.
" Why?"
"it made your lips look more tempting" he replied and Jacinthe can feel her cheeks heating up
"Kiss" she said shyly
"The name is kiss?" He said surprisingly
"Sure" she replied
"Should we make the name real?" He teased and she gasped, looking at him eventually...
Blaine came closer and she stood her groud till he got to her, his eyes was fixed on her lips and she puckered them nervously
He started bending over and she blinked more than ten times in a minute before closing her eyes
Blaine smiled and held her face before pressing his lips on her forehead, butterflies fluttered their wings in her stomach immediately and she opened her eyes.
"Go out with me when Sapphire wakes up" he said and she was about to give a reply when Nadia came out of the washroom
"Catch you later" he winked, walking away
Jacinthe bit her lips, watching him till he's out.

New York.. 3pm**
The Langford's mansion**
It smells magnificence and wealth, it scents like mint.... Big and too perfect
The main thing that gave it the glow is that.... It was decorated with diamonds allover... Pure diamonds
You can see your reflection anywhere you step on, it's shinning and glittering..... The beauty of the house radiates whenever the sun rises and when the sun dies, the expensive golden lights comes on, adding to the beauty of the mansion..
No doubt, it's bigger, more magnificent and beautiful than the white house.....
Guards are surrounding everywhere, no chance for Intruders
Well, when talking about the Langford family, everyone bows.... right after the president, they follow when it comes to richness..
The man of the house....Grey Langford passed out years ago and since then...his wife... Sophia Langford has been perfectly taking care of everything...
The largest conglomerates in New York....The Langford's
It has over hundred companies under it's wing in and out of New York and US at large
Sophia is a beautiful woman even at forty-five....but her arrogance is as high as the heavens... Kilimanjaro will bow during the lookout of the height to be compared with it
She's a woman of principles who does her things her way, she listens no one....she's stern and only her children knows her level of wickedness
Michael Langford...the first and only son of the house... strikingly handsome just like his dad....
Nora Langford... only daughter of the house, pretty like her mum but is nothing like her when is comes to the heart.
The afternoon was sunny but the house is as cool as always when she came in from school
She's not allowed to have even a single friend anyways...the first time she made the mistake, Sophia locked her up for three days and threatened the family of the friend a lot... everyone avoids her like pandemic in school, no one comes closer to her cos of the fear of her mum and anytime she thinks about that, she cries secretly.
Guards follow her around and all her steps were monitored
Michael was her only companion but because of Sophia again, he left the house.
Nora sighed heavily as she entered the rich living room ....
Petra is sitting on one of the couches, eating apple while watching TV
She walked past her and made to go in but Petra rushed to her and blocked her way
"How was school?" She asked and Nora only rolled eyes at her
"Get off my way....bitch" she said hatefully
"You can't hate me for long Nora, I'll soon be getting engaged to Micheal, you should learn how to like me" she said and Nora scowled
" I'd rather die than seeing you getting married to my Mich, you're far from what he likes...he left the house cos of you and mum, you think he'll come back?, Hell no" she said, breathing heavily
Petra smiled and adjusted the bum short she's wearing
"Look at me...I'm hot, crazily hot, my shapes drive guys crazy, I'll just use my body anytime he comes back to this house cos I'm sure madam Sophia is doing everything to find his location" she said
" She'll never find him, never!" Nora shouted
" Calm down Nora.... once he's found and I get engaged to him, we'll fly to England together" she winked and Nora slapped her furiously.
" I told you to stay away!, you're annoying;" she shouted, breathing heavily
" You just slapped me?" Petra said shockingly
" Nora" Sophia's voice called from behind and Nora froze, Petra smiled satisfactorily
Nora slowly turned to Sophia
*When did she even get here?*
"M....m..mum" she said fearfully
Sophia stood gallantly behind her, looking at her angrily... she's wearing palazzo trousers on heels then elegant looking fur coat, her dress sense is always that way...she dresses like she's in her early thirties
"What did you just do" she said calmly
" She was.....she said something annoying" she stuttered
" And that made you slap her?" Sophia said angrily
Petra Brooke is the daughter of the former president.... that's the main reason why she was choosen for Michael,,
Nora went mute and Sophia sighed
"I need to make you know that slapping your elders is wrong....I didn't bring you up this way" she said and with just a wave of her hand, six guards appeared
"No mum....no please!" Nora cried
"You're getting locked up till tomorrow morning, your dinner will be brought....take her to her room" she ordered and Nora was taken immediately
" I hate you!!!, I hate you Sophia!!!, I hate you!!!, Petra I hate you more!!!" She screamed, kicking the air as she was taken away
Sophia's coat was taken off by the female maids and she faced Petra
"Michael is coming back soon, I still have things to take care of... I'll be done by next week or two.... it's a piece of cake looking for him so far I remain Sophia Langford, I'll take the time he spent at wherever he is as vacation for him, I'll bring him back soon" she said and Petra smiled happily
" I can't wait to see him again, seriously I've missed him" she said
Sophia only smiled shortly before walking in with her maids
"Yes!, My baby is coming back soon" Petra said, jumping up happily.

Pullman; Washington**
W hospitals**
Julia felt pressed and when she found it hard to endure, she left the ward to use the restroom and instantly,, Sapphire's eyes flew open
She quickly sat up, surprised that she's still alive and luckily she's not feeling pain in any part of her body, she feels strong and ok, she touched her forehead...the plaster is gone, the wound healed already
She got down from the bed and the fact that she's receiving no drip at the moment helped....she left the ward and eventually tiptoed out of the hospital
She got out and sighed, looking around, she was expecting people to be making jest of her, saying shit about the video but it's not happening, no one seems concerned about her
"Wait...why?" She wondered, looking around confusedly
While at that, a cab stopped in front of the hospital and out of it came Nadia and Jacinthe
Her eyes widened immediately she saw them, she made to run but her name was called by Jacinthe, she stopped
"Sapphire!" Jacinthe called again, rushing to her
"It's really you, thanks for waking up" she said, hugging her tightly
Nadia just stood behind, watching them
Jacinthe stayed long in Sapphire's arms and she even was too confused to hug her back
She broke it and Nadia came forward, hugging her too
"Baby fire" she whispered slowly
Sapphire continued staring at them like strangers till Nadia broke the hug
"I'm so glad, I'm glad" she said at the point of tears
"The....the video" Sapphire stuttered
"It wasn't uploaded, Rowen destroyed everything before leaving" Nadia replied and her eyes widened
" Huh?"
" Yeah, Rowen stopped the girls from uploading it...then he left Washington to New York... Seth is unaware about the video though...it has really been destroyed so you're fine" Nadia said and Sapphire gasped, holding her chest
If there's anything called heavenly chilled water, it just made contact with her heart right now...
She cried in joy, feeling a bit better but when her mind went to Seth, the thought that he'll still break up with her is killing,,
Just then, a cab passed by, she waved it down and got in quickly
"Sapphire where are you going to" Nadia said, hitting the window
" Sapphire!" Jacinthe called too but she never answered till the cab moved
Jacinthe and Nadia tried looking for cab but couldn't find one till her cab went out of sight
"Shit!, Where could she go" Jacinthe said
Seth's bike came to an halt in the next minute and he hurriedly came down
"Madam Julia called to tell me Sapphire went missing in the ward" he said breathlessly
" We saw her just now, she woke up already" Nadia said
" Really?, Then where's she?" He asked
" She left in a cab, I dunno where she went" Jacinthe said and Seth went into the hospital, meeting Julia and the hospital securities who are already searching everywhere
"She's nowhere to be found, where's my daughter" she said fearfully
" I'll find her...do you trust me?" Seth asked and Julia nodded
"Please find her.... please" she said
"I promise, just go back to the hostel with the girls" he said and Julia nodded again before he rushed out of the hospital.
He went to the hostel first and searched everywhere for her, every possible place
He was breathless throughout, he did the search round the hostel more than five times before coming to a standstill.
He was almost in tears when he remembered the only place he hasn't searched.
🌹🌹🌹
Sapphire was sitting on the mountain at the arcade where she watched the beautiful flower bed from, anyone around will hear her loud cries, she was crying so loudly.
She lamented bitterly as she cried, wishing she hasn't procrastinated, wishing she told him about herself earlier
"My baby" she whispered, hugging herself sadly while pouring out tears from her eyes gently.
"I love you so much, very much Seth...I mean a lot, I dunno how it happened till now but I just know I love you Mich" she cried, wiping her tears
" As much as I don't want to lose you, I can't help but think I don't deserve you" she lamented, sniffing afterwards
" My chocoseth" she said and felt a light smile escape her thin lips
"What do I do?, I hurt you a lot and....I don't know what to do...I'm so sorry" she cried
She was about to lament again when she heard steps behind, she quickly wiped her tears and looked back slowly, her heart fluttered just like it used to do when she saw her handsome boyfriend standing behind her
She stood in a slow mo and stared at him endlessly
He was looking so handsome just like she remembered... perfect and his eyes are the loving ones she loves seeing,,
He was wearing a white shirt on black jean ... No matter how hard she tries not to fall over and over for him again, her efforts were futile...she tripped helplessly at the perfection in front of her, unable to say a word
Seth stared back at her pretty eyes, it finally opened to look at him...she's still as ravishing as ever, stunning and s*xy, her mere sight is making him want to touch her already
That moment, he forgot about everything, it got filtered away from his memory, he focused on her and can feel his heart thudding as usual...for her
He looked at the distance between them and the need to cover it took over,,
"Seth" Sapphire called in a whisper, he started taking fast strides to her and with just five steps, he's already in front of her..
"Mich..." Sapphire whispered again, trying to make a word but he shocked her by hugging her face in his palms then locked their lips together in a hard, deep hungry kiss,,
She was too shocked to kiss back at first but it only took one sec before she got over it so far the guy kissing her lips right now is her one and only baby,,
She closed her eyes and held his shirt, tugging gently at it, kissing back as hard as he's doing.. she missed this damn much...so much
The cool breeze welcomed it, blowing slowly as Seth broke it gently....
He stared deeply into her eyes and Sapphire swallowed hard and tried to talk
"I'm sorr_
" I love you" he interrupted and slipped an arm in her waist, pulling her possessively to his chest, holding her face with the other hand before slamming his lips on hers again.
