chapter 11

You can't just get rid of me that easily, Cove I promised to get you back. You used to be mine and you'll continue to be mine alone. There's no way I'll let you be with that wretched b*tch" She clenched her teeth in anger.

"He has been seeing Jemma secretly..." Orion who had heard little of their conversation mumbles to himself in a hiding.

"Where could she be?" Mokee mutters walking around the not so thick woods.

They just finished shooting and she's currently looking for Nana who had followed her to location as her manager.

She would have called her but her phone isn't with her at the moment. The crew members had already started packing up and leaving one by one also.

"What are you looking for Ma'am?" One of the crew members which she doesn't recognize asked.

"My manager, have you seen her around she's_"

"The one who came with you? I saw her going there just now" He pointed to a direction.

"Really, thank you" Mokee smiles heading towards the direction. The crew member hastily left the wood immediately she left and meet up with someone.

"Yeah, she went there. Everything is set I'm sure she won't escape it" He says discretely to the person he met, and the person extend an envelope to him.

"Good work. Now leave and don't be seen" The person he was talking to said and the crew member quickly left.

The person smirks then walk away also

"Where is she going?" Cove who spot Mokee leaving to an unknown direction thought following her also.

"Is this really the right way? No one seems to be here...did I make a mistake? Wouldn't it be better to just go back this place seems eerie..." Mokee hugged herself as she walks gently in the silent woods.

"Monkey!! What's is she doing in this dangerous place...MONKEY!!" Cove called after her.

Mokee looks back on hearing the familiar voice but on making an attempt to take a turnaround, she finds herself falling into a large pit which wasn't visible to the eyes.

"AHHH!!" She screamed out.

"Monkey!!!" Cove ran to her on seeing this, kneeling, he looks down and saw her lying unconsciously on the ground.

"MOnkey!! Monkey!!! MOKEE WAKE UP!!" He shouted but got no response.

"F**k!!!" He spat and on seeing her head stained with blood, he lost it.

"MOKEE!!!"

~𝘓𝘈𝘛𝘌𝘙~

"Argghh!!!" Mokee groans on opening her eyes.

"It hurts..." She mumbles.

"You are awake?" She heard that same voice she knows very well again and looks up only to see him looking down at her with a worried expression on.

"How's your head? Does it hurt?" He touches a side at her head where she has a little cut and that's when she realizes, her head was actually on his lap.

She sprang up.

"What...what happened?" She looks around.

"Why are we here?" She asked

"Don't you remember, you fell?"

"Right...but you?"

"I saw you fell, so I ran over and jumped in also" He replied simply.

"What?? Why would you jump in, you could have just called for help?"

"I saw blood, you wouldn't answer when I called, I thought you were dead, so I couldn't think straight and jumped in" He replied like a child.

"Ugh! Seriously... you're impossible. Your phone?"

"With my manager" He replied.

"Then how do we get out of here?"

"I shouted but no one hears me. I think we're stuck here"

"What!!"

"It's getting dark, what do we do monkey??" He pouted, Mokee sighs out in exasperation.

*. *. *

"You'll drill a hole in my face if you continue staring" Mokee said to Cove who has been staring at her for a while now. He chuckles.

"Thinking about it, this isn't so bad..."

"What?"

"Being stuck here with you. I love it"

"So, you're happy?" She raise a brow.

"I think I'll be happy even in hell as long as I'm with you" He replied with beaming smiles

"Do you have gas mask?" She ask

"Why?"

"You might need it" She replied, he snickers.

"HELP! SOMEBODY OUT THERE!! HELP!!!" Mokee yelled out.

"Why are you shouting?" He asks .

"Is your head there just to add to your height? We're stuck here and don't even know how to get out. Shouldn't we at least shout for help?"

"I'm fine though, being here with you will make us grow closer to each other"

"I don't like being stuck here with you. I hate it and it creeps me out" She said back.

"Why don't you like me, is there something about me you don't like? Tell me I might be able to change it" He says.

"I don't like everything about you. Everything!"

"Even though you hate me now, we're still gonna end up together"

"That would never happen"

"How can you be so sure of that? Even legend have it that the sun and moon has been always in love but they could never be together because the moon rises at 𝚗𝚒𝚐𝚑𝚝 and the sun at sun𝚛𝚒𝚜𝚎 so God in his infinite mercy created eclipse in proof that there's no love which is forbidden and impossible so how 𝚌𝚊𝚗 you be sure you and I won't be, don't you believe in the power of true love?" He quizzes.

"True love my foot, that sh*t only happens in drama and movies" She rolled her eyes.

"Then I'm gonna show you that true love can never be witness in soap operas but in reality"

"Is this how you play other girls, sweet words don't work on me dear, sweet efforts does"

"Maybe..." He shrugs.

"No wonder you're hated by many" She mumbles.

"I don't have any reason for anyone to hate me, they only create their little drama out of jealousy and I don't have enmity with anyone, if you think we're enemies, you created that in your head. But monkey, if everyone is indeed hating me, you absolutely can't, it'll make me sad" He stared keenly at her.

She clears her throat.
