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]

"Justin Anderson, I want you to Co-operate with us if you don't want a civil war to happen in your house." The leader said. 


Smirking his lips, the leader smelled the pistol. "Ahh, this smells good for those who wants to disobey my orders." Looking at Justin, "Mr Anderson, I'm going to go easy on you if you do what you are asked to. I am going to give you two options, so its left for you to choose." Moving about, he waved the pistol, "the papers or the woman?" He turned around. 


"What papers and woman are you talking about?" Justin inquired with a cold voice. 


"Mr Anderson, don't play dumb with me. I've studied your skills as a quick-witted guy, so I know how it goes. I gave you two options and I won't repeat myself twice." Cracking the gun, "Ownership of properties or Bianca? Choose and don't waste my time." 


Clenching his hands into a fist, Justin gritted his teeths, "none of the above." 


Raising his eyebrows, "wow, nice one Mr Anderson. You are trying to play smart with me, right?" Looking at his men, "isn't he playing smart with me?" 


"Of course boss, but don't worry, few minutes from now, he will be in the montuary." One of them mocked. 


Gritting his teeths, "how dare you talk to me in that manner?" Justin was about to grab one of the men, but Ryan pulled him back. 


"No Justin, this guys are well prepared and sent by Marvin to kill you. But we have to use our wisdom if we must defeat them." Ryan whispered. 


Looking at the leader, Justin narrowed his eyes, "are you the dependent type?" 


Scrunching his brows, "what do you mean by dependent type?" 


"Well, you are powerless that's why you're depending on something–" looking at Ryan, "right Ryan?" 


"Of course yes, he is out of strength, that's why he is relying on something powerful than himself." 


Pointing the gun at them, "hey don't play tricks on me, because it won't work. I've seen thousands of things like this before, so stop acting as if you are in a movie scene." The leader smirked. 


Bursting into laughter, "really, a movie scene? Damn, we are not acting movies neither are we playing tricks on you." Pointing at the gun, "but I think your gun is." Justin said. 


"Hey!" Gritting his teeths, "Don't dare me Mr Anderson." 


"Fine I won't dare you, but stop being dependent." 


"What the hell are you talking about?" 


Crossing his hands in the front, "aren't you a man? If yes, then stop acting like a woman and put down the gun." Narrowing his eyes, "let's do it, man to man, face to face." 


Patting Justin's shoulder, "no Justin, I bet he won't. Infact his men will acknowledge him not to, because they all are dependent guys." Ryan laughed. 


Two options
