EP 1; Placing the coffee mug on the glass table, "you know what darling, girls like you who always try to run away from dating and relationships, always end up falling in love at the end." 

Letting out a brittle laughter, "grandma I think you're under the influence of fairy tales. Or did you watch Cinderella cartoons before coming?" 

"Huh? I can't even remember the last time I watched fairy tales movie." 

"Then why are you talking bout dating and relationships? Because I know am not interested in them" 

Raising her eyebrows, granny Mathilda burst into laughter.

Scowling her face, "grandma what's funny? I didn't say something funny" 

Slightly pinching and pulling bianca's cheeks, granny Mathilda chuckled, "yes dear, you just said something funny." 

Frowning confusedly, "how?" 

Taking a deep breath, "first of all, let me tell you something." She sat up properly and faced her. "Do you know that old men and women of my age  still goes into relationship?" 

Widening her eyes and mouth in shock, Bianca threw her hands in her mouth and gasped. "Ahh, you gat to be kidding me grandma" 

Nodding her head, "no darling, am not kidding, am talking legit." 

"But why do they have to go into a relationship when they're old and weak?" Shrugging her shoulders, "weird" 

Flicking her forehead, "oh you haven't heard of old people dating sites?" 

Frowning confusedly, "old people dating sites? No I haven't and why is it?" 

Chuckling, "okay I'll tell you" she whispered and explained. "Every woman needs a life partner, whom will watch over her, protect her and support her till the end of time. So no matter your age or who you are, you still need a partner." 

Sitting up properly, Bianca helplessly shook her head. "But it's not in my gene to date anyone right now, because–" placing her hand on her chest, she gave a doleful look and added, "I don't wanna suffer another heartbreak, please feel my pains" 

Patting the top of her head, she chuckled. "I do feel your pains too dear but heartbreaks are also part of life" 

Widening her eyes and mouth in shock, "huh?" Bianca shouted shockingly.

"Uh huh, if you didn't date someone then how do you experience heartbreaks? Or do you just watch them happen in the movies?"

BREATHLESS [A story that will touch your soul]

"Ryan, I asked her to bring my business laptop, does that take the whole day to bring?" 


Glancing at his watch, "okay why don't you go and check on her? I mean–" shrugging his shoulders, "didn't you say she's at home today? So it's obvious there's something holding her back." 


"Yeah, you are right. I'll check on––your phone is ringing." Pointing his chin at the phone on the desk. 


"Oh yeah." Picking the call, "Yes Mom?–what?–okay, okay am coming." He said and hung up. 


Walking towards the door, "dude are you still here? My mom just called that, Phoebe is missing." 


"No, kissing." Ryan said and dashed out. 


Rolling his eyes, "Ugh, okay fine, am coming." Justin said and left. 


"Where the hell is my daughter?" Kevin yelled. 


Bursting into tears, "I swear, I don't know." Elsa cried. 


Scrunching his brows, "what do you mean by you don't know? There were pool of blood in your room and you stand here to tell me you don't know?" 


Rushing down the stairs, "dad, dad, I've informed the police about it. They are on their way to investigate." Nelly said. 


"I don't want to see the police, I want to see Phoebe." Looking at Elsa, "where is my daughter? I know you are hiding her somewhere, but pretending to shed crocodile tears." 


Vigorously nodding her head, "I swear, am not hiding our daughter." 


Raising his eyebrows, "when did she became your daughter? Please tell me, is it overnight? Or by day?" Kevin inquired.


"Mom tell dad, you hit her with the stool." Nelly said. 


Widening his eyes, "what? Elsa you did what? Did you hit Phoebe with a stool?" When she did not answer but cried harder, he yelled. "Answer the damn question!" 


"Yes but it was a mistake, I didn't mean to do it intentionally." Elsa cried. 


Brushing his hands on his face, Kevin helplessly sat on the couch. With his face buried down. He was short of words at the moment he heard what Elsa did. How could she be so heartless, ruthless and wicked towards an innocent girl? If she was having a problem with Phoebe staying here, she would have say it to him directly. But she went to far by hitting her with a wooden stool.
