Attack

Janny's face became

scarlet red from embarrassment. If she had disguised herself, she would not have received this

treatment.

She finally reached the place; it was like forever. It was a four-room house on the outskirts of the

city, making her think about her own situation. Sadness enveloped her soul. Janny rang the doorbell,

and a woman answered the door. The woman's face showed fear. Janny walked in without a word,

intimidating the woman. "Hello, madam, is this Kim's home?" The woman looked like Kim, so this

must be her mother. "NO, he is not around". Kim's mom obviously lied.

"Can I see him?" As Janny heard noises from the kitchen, she walked in. Upon seeing janny the

whole house became silent, Kim started to shake in fear "I can explain" Janny was horrified, like

what is there to explain about ruining someone's life "That is…", but upon seeing all the members of

the house looking at her in horror she decided to keep quit.

"Can we please talk on the other side of the room".

"Kim!!?" Kim's mom was not happy with that idea.

"Mom calm down".

"I needed the money; my grandmother is dying. Please have mercy." Kim was in tears.

"Is it?" That's all Janny had to say. After all, she had never experienced the pain of losing someone

she loved, being an orphan. There was pin-drop silence between the two, then Janny decided to talk

after some thought. "That does not give you enough reason to lie and ruin my life." Kim fell into a

trace of emptiness. He did not mean to cause all this trouble; the lady said that Miss Janny would not

get into trouble, and she was not looking for any gain in all this. He would get the money to treat his

dying grandma, so it was a win-win. But events turned worse for Miss Janny.

"I am really sorry; I did not mean to." Janny sneered at what he was saying. He gambled with her life,

and he is claiming he did not mean to. "What absurd, you didn't mean to? so this happened what

now?" Janny could not take this anymore, she needed to solve this.

"Who paid you?" She knew she could not do anything; he did what he did, and that was not justified

for her. But she had nothing to say or do, nor could she undo it. All she had to do now was to clear

her name.

"I don't know the name of that woman." Janny was stupefied by the response Who extorts money

from a stranger to destroy someone else's life? "You must be kidding me; don't you?"

Kim tried thinking very hard. "All I can say is that the woman had pale white skin, red hair." Janny

wanted to cry 'Is this boy really serious!!!', but overlooking the details, her face became sour. Could

it be that it was Ketty, who else could it be? Who else would enjoy skinning her alive besides her?

"Was it Ketty Jones? ". Kim blinked in confusion; he does not know someone of that name. "Don't

tell me that stupid face of yours tells me you don't know her." Kim shook his head. Janny

facepalmed.

"Yeah, her name is Ketty Jones, most known as the Young Miss daughter of the most influential man

in the city.". Kim showed no signs of knowing this Ketty Jones Afterall they lived at the out skirts of

the town, and they had no track of what is going out there with the riches.

"Let's let that aside and deal with clearing my name for now." They talked over some ideas, but they

were non-fulfilling, not believable to anyone. They spent a lot of time looking for a solution, not

realizing the time. Kim's family noticed and started to panic, doing the most foolish thing."Oh, I know! What if we make a video, and I tell the truth about everything? We can even fake a

message to me, telling me to lie about you paying me the money." Janny pretended to shed some

tears. "Oh, I'm working with a mastermind of crime." Kim acted innocent. "I'm only just a child."

Janny rolled her eyes at him. "Oh, please. I've seen more." Janny and Kim finished the video and sent

it to the media simultaneously. Janny filled Kim in on why Ketty would do this and their history. Kim

was shocked to hear it. "I'll help you to take her down as my compensation and also no one messes

with my friend" Kim offered to Janny. "What will you do?" Not that she did not believe in him after

everything; it's just that she does not know. "Please, as a way of apology." Kim showed the cutest

face, one that no one with a heart could withstand. "Drop it; someone else can do better." Janny did

not want to give in. "So, is it a deal, plea—se?" "Fine." She finally gave in; what harm would it bring?

Janny boldly thanked the family for letting her see Kim, even though she saw him by force. On her

way out, she saw a group of people standing, looking in her direction. Her instincts told her to turn

back, but she fought it and went on. Passing them, she was immediately attacked by the group.

Meanwhile, Kim's mother told him not to worry anymore. She had contacted the lady that had

helped them to pay for his grandma's treatment, and she told her not to worry, that she would fix

everything, and the woman would never bother them again. "Mom, what have you done?" Kim was

furious at his foolish mother's behaviour. Firstly, she was the one who begged him to agree to taking

the money and lying while ruining Janny's life, and now she has made more mess. "Helping so that

she will never bother us again; you should be thanking me," Kim's mom said proudly, as if she had

done some heavenly good.

"Mom, you should have asked my opinion first," Kim said accusingly. "Silence, your Mom did nothing wrong."
