    🤦WRONG DECISION 🤦
    “Are you crazy? What were you thinking? Bringing a child, Little Ciara to my party? Damnit?!” 
    Bayley gave out a fuss. She never expected to see Ciara at her party.
    She had to drag Louisa to the restroom and talk some senses into her.
    “There was nothing I could think of at the moment. Couldn’t Miss my friend’s party and couldn’t leave C alone at home” 
    Louisa shrugged as she leaned on the wall.
    “How could you be so lame? You ought to know that this party is no child thing.  You do know what goes on here. 
    Talking about responsibilities, you aren’t even acting like a responsible guardian! 
    A whole lot of dirty activities is gonna take place tonight and.
    “Shut up bay! I know the fuck that goes on at your party. You don’t have to remind me that.  All I want is that you prepare a place for little chump. One of your spare rooms where she’ll lay low till next morning. Nothing else.” 
    Louisa retorted , cutting Bay out of her speech.
    “I’ll see what I can do. But with the way you take things Louisa, I think you need a nanny.  It’s gonna be the best decision you’ll take at the moment” 
    She whispered close  to Louisa’s ears. Before walking out of the restroom.
    Louisa stood leaning against the wall. She knew Bay is right. Bringing a child to a stupid party. That’s the worst decision ever.
    She didn’t act responsibly and she regrets it. She better go get her out  of that hip-hop freaking jazz place.
    She instantly straightened from the wall as she made way into the heated discos that got everyone on their feets shouting and dancing rhythmically to the blues.
    The place was damn tight. Louisa peered through the crowded place in search of Ciara.  Shouting her name and would be of no use. The music would just make it  useless.
    She sashayed herself through the crowd. Hard to find C.c
    Where could she be? She asked herself feeling so worried.
    She tried asking questions from other guest. But they weren’t in her mood as they could barely hear what she was saying. Due to the loud discos that was played.
    Feeling disgusted and tried she dashed outside to cool off her sweaty self. It was too hot in there. With all the nasty characters and all. 
    Gosh! Where the fuck really is Ciara?! She  shouted within herself.
    “Oh….oh.. there she is!” Ciara said excitedly pointing at Louisa.
    Louisa who recognized the charming voice turned  her gaze to Ciara.
    “There you are . I’ve been looking all over for….” Her voice trailed off  when she noticed Ciara wasn’t Alone.
    “I’ve been out here with him, he’s really nice you know” Ciara grinned in a quest to introduce the young man she was with.
    “Seon…” It unconsciously escaped Louisa’s lips.
    ” Hello Boss” seon smiled at the already frowning Louisa.
    ” What are you doing out here with him? “She  asked Ciara ignoring seon.
    “I wasn’t really comfortable inside, so I had to come out…and coincidentally, I found him here” 
    “Ciara you know better than to talk to strangers. Men especially” she whispered  the last part.
    “But he’s really nice…and he even calls you Boss” Ciara protested.
    “Doesn’t matter now, I have found you and we better get you away from this shit place” Louisa cupped her smooth face.
    “You should have thought of that before bringing her here. Can’t you see your sister is too young for this?”  Seon scoffed under his breath.
    “Excuse me?” Louisa twitched.
    “You heard me clear Boss. Or should I say Louisa Sullivan.  You left her all by herself inside and went to God knows where. All I did was try to avert her attention from such heinous acts going on there. You should thank me for that. I kept her busy with our chit chat. Yet you act like am the bad person here.   
    You’re so inhuman” seon said boldly to Louisa’s face.
    “Sonofabitch! You keep your mouth shut or I’ll slit it down your throat!” She threatened.
    “Yeah. What else are you good at. ”  Seon sighed out.
    “I wonder what you were even telling my ch…
    “Hello there Ciara!” Bay cut in. Her guess was good as right. They were really out here. She has been looking all over for the both.
    ” Aunt Bayley” she gave her her best smile.
    ” I see you are here with Louisa and ……
    OMG…. seon?  Is that seon? I can’t believe this!” Bayley exclaimed in excitement. She had almost forgotten she invited him over. And true to his word, he is here!
    She ran into his arms.
    “Thank you for coming seon. You are really sweet” She commented placing a peck on his neck.
    “The pleasure’s all mine. I must confess. You have a nice place.” He complimented.
    “Thanks love” Bayley blushed so hard. Causing a redness on her cheeks.
    Louisa scoffed in irritation at that,  her friend’s too cheap. Just a mere compliment and she’s blushing red like a tomato.
    What a pity🙄
    “I really love you stopping by at any other day. You’re always welcome here. My door is wide open for you.
    “Flirt” Louisa huffed in disgust as Bayley kept on ranting.
    “……I’m cool with that seon. I know the nature of your Job. And am very familiar with your grumpy boss.  I know she won’t allow early leaves from her workers” Bayley added eyeing Louisa vigorously. 
    Louisa flipped her middle finger, giving her the bird sign which meant *FUCK YOU*.
    Bayley snorted. And gave her the *whatever* Look 🙄.
    “I’ll see what I can do about that” seon assured with a smile perfectly curved at the corner of his lips.
    “Please do. I’ll really appreciate” 
    “Helloooo Bayley I’m still standing here you know. We aren’t that invisible” Louisa rolled out. Referring to herself and Ciara.
    “Oh…I almost forgot. ” She palmed her head as if she just remembered something.
    “I’m sorry about that.”
    ” You guys come along now. Let me show you to your room Ciara.” Bayley Notified. Then she turned back to seon.
    ” I’ll be right back honey” Bayley waved in at him
    “I’m all yours” he winked seductively at her and that made bayley crave underneath her. 
    Louisa saw the reaction on both of them. She scoffed feeling so disgusted.
    “What’s your problem?” Bayley asked as they tried to sashay their way through the  rowded place. Her voice trying to over come the Hip Hop discos.  But Louisa didn’t reply. Seems she didn’t hear bay say something. Good thing!.
         They finally came out of that shit place and we’re going through the passage way.
    ” Just a little further and we’ll be there” Bayley stated.
    “Would’ve been there long ago if you weren’t flirting with my worker🙄.
      FLIRT!” Louisa shrugged.

     “You are FIRED!!!!!!” Louisa shouted. Stamping her fist on the desk.
    “No Boss… please. Don’t”  the male worker fell on his knees.
    But Louisa wasn’t in the mood for any of his plea.
    “I don’t wanna waste my money paying a bunch of fools for wasting my resources! 
    Common sense would have told you that those goods ducked in that warehouse about a year old now was to be sold first at a cheaper rate before the newly made ones.
    Now this company has had another loss of goods worth thousands of dollars.
    What do you have to say about that huh? Sorry? Mercy?
    I should tamper justice with mercy? Who the hell is Mercy?
    Now get out of my office before I lose it!” Louisa stormed fiercely in finality.
    The man knew his boss’s mind was made up already.
    To avoid what’s gonna happen next to him. He scrambled out of her office without looking back.
    “Bunch of Incompetent Fools!” She spat out. 
    Louisa felt frustrated. If it were to be other Managers, they would cry for such a great loss.
    But Louisa didn’t shed a tear. She swallowed in the hardness and sighed in frustration. 
    Louisa doesn’t cry, she smiles with no one and everyone knows the fiery Boss lady for that.
    Look what that bastard has cost her company. Such great loss.  Such amount of Money wasted.
    She had fired one two days ago for incompetence. The lady wasn’t able to give account of what she bought.
    No receipts to show for it. Louisa tagged her a criminal and fired her.
    Now this? Her company is deteriorating every day with poor intellectual workers.
    “Where the hell did I pick them from?” She burged.
    She need good and brilliant workers. Smart ones. She has to do something about this.
    LINTEL won’t crumble in her time.
    “Mrs Dawkins!!” She yelled. Lighting her cigarette.
       Mrs Dawkins whose office was next to Louisa’s hurried down to answer her.
    “Yes Boss” she beckoned.
    “I am sure that as the secretary of this company, you are damn aware of it’s great loss” 
    Louisa took a drag and blew out. Swaying aimlessly on her seat.
    “Yes Boss. I’m really sorry Ma. please you don’t have to fire me. I know I haven’t been doing my best at least I have tried. I have bunch of files on my table which I need to attend to.
    I was really not concentrated on the…” Mrs Dawkins kept ranting on and on.
    Louisa just stared bluntly at her. Busy with her cig.
    “…..I have a family and this is the only source we feed on. My husband is…
    “Damn your husband woman. I never asked for your shitful explanations” Louisa rolled her eyes.
    “And who said anything about firing you?” She paused again taking a long drag from her cigarette as Mrs Dawkins breath down. Hands on her chest.
    “What do you want of Me Miss Sullivan” she asked formally.
    “Now to the point. I really don’t know how the fuck I employed those dafts. I’m really not happy about it. For chrissake we are supposed to be making progress Mrs Dawkins” 
    Louisa sat properly looking so worried she dropped her cigarette.
    ” I am really sorry about the trends Miss Sullivan. I’ll definitely see to it that everything is brought back to shape. I promise” 
    ” That’s not good enough” Louisa jerked causing Mrs Dawkins to arch her brow.
    “Go now and send words to the best branch at Philippines. I’m sure they are the best of all branches. Tell them I need the two best workers there ASAP!” Louisa sat aback and swayed slowly on her seat. 
    “Yes miss Sullivan” she genuflected and turned to leave.
    But soon she stopped when something struck her mind. Turning back to Glance at Louisa.
    “Why the look? Don’t you know the way out of my office?” She asked with a fuss.
    “I do but something just came up”
    “What’s that?” Louisa furrowed her brow at her.
    “Philippines is really one of the best branches of all. But don’t you think taking away two of it’s best workers would cause great lapses?” She asked, her eyes fixed on Louisa.
    Yeah Louisa never thought of that. Good thing Mrs Dawkins did.
    “What do you have in mind then?” She asked 
    Mrs Dawkins smiled and continued.
    ” I hear New Jersey is also one of the best. Why not take one from there and another from Philippines at Cebu”
    ” Okay…” Louisa slowly nodded.
    “I think that’s better. Go now and specify two days from now. Test them it’s urgent and I need them unfailingly. Two days deadline” she ordered.
    “Okay Ma” she beckoned and left.
    🌍🌍🌍🌍NEW JERSEY 🌎🌎🌎🌎
             Seon stared blankly into space. He sat on his bed with a bottle Swap on his hand as he slowly slipped it down into his gullet.
    He resumed work the day after he got interviewed and was lucky enough to get this job.
    Since then, he has been putting his utmost best to impress himself and others. 
    LINTEL Company Limited is a very big company around New Jersey. Which sales on varieties of quality goods. They produce and sell in wholesales and retails.
       Aside that, he thought of his family. Gosh! He has really missed home so damn much. Especially his mom. This wasn’t an easy decision to make.
    Leaving his home of paradise to a foreign place to toil before he eats. Not as easy as he thought. But all the Same,He’ll manage.
    Hi peacemaker +2348037873157 to be added you to the platform
    He chose this and he doesn’t regret a bit. He’s trying really hard to adapt to this lifestyle. He will get through this. He continously assured himself.
    It’s really getting late. And he has to wake up early in the morning to resume work. *New habit”.
    He smiled, switching off his lamp stand. 
    This room was no match for the man of his status. A room apartment with his belongings neatly ducked at a close corner. 
    Like a log of wood, he fell on his hard bed. “Arrrh” he groaned 
    The bed wasn’t as soft as his back home.
    Too many things to adapt to. He said within himself and slowly drifted to Oblivion.

    “I think I have done my best Louisa. I gotta go, got a date to catch”
    Bayley Notified looking at her her watch.
    “You and your countless conquests…I really pity you” Louisa sighed standing up.
    “Let me walk you out “she added.
    And bayley nodded her consent.
    “I’ll be back Ciara. Just give me a Moment. Meanwhile , you go to the kitchen and serve yourself”
    Louisa smiled at her and walked out with bayley.
    “Since when did you start smiling?” Bayley asked teasingly.
    “Don’t start now” Louisa shrugged.
    “No I gotta say it. I can barely remember the last time you smiled.
    Now you just smiled genuinely.
    Ciara’s just half a day old in your house and I can already see her effect on you”
    Bayley retorted.
    “I really like her Bay.. she somehow reminds me of myself. I just can’t help think such.
    I feel so warm when she’s with me” Louisa confessed.
    Shared on whatsapp by Martino. 
    “Good for you  my dear friend. But you should know a lots gonna change with Ciara around”
    “What do you mean?” Louisa arched in puzzlement.
    “Your keeping late nights , smoking and all. It’s gonna change m you now have a responsibility”
    Bayley clipped.
    Louisa never thought of that .
    “Damn you are right. But I have to think straight and the only way I can do that is to puff some smokes and drink.
    It’s already a part of me Bay..with time, she’ll understand”
    “You really think so? Or I’d say you are gonna teach her to do Same.
    Remember she’s still a kid. And kids tends to learn fast.
    You are going to spoil her if you continue this way.”
    Bayley stated Matter of factly.
    “Look who’s talking..
    I’m way better than you are.i only drink , smoke and kick a*ses.
    But you, you smoke, drink and f**k anything on shorts.
    Am not you and I am not contagious”
    “Excuse me dear friend, point of correction, it’s not everything on shorts I f**k.
    I don’t f**k for the pleasure, I f**k for the cash. The gain,.
    I am not you is goddamn rich. You’ve got companies worldwide.
    I am just a casual business person who clearly sticks to her customers.” Bayley defended.
    “You made your choice Bay. I offered a helping hand.
    I offered you a job..a well paid job to keep your a** busy in my company. But you declined.
    That’s no one’s fault ..
    I did what every good friend would do”
    Louisa stated.
    “I know you did. But I declined for some reasons best known to be and mind you, I also did as much for you… Remember?
    When Jonathan Bucks did bad things to you.
    Spanging you to smoke, forcing you to drink alcohol. Beat you hard if you spit it out.
    And Even when he …
    “That’s enough! I don’t want to hear that part. 
    It’ still hurts me till date. Feels only like yesterday he did all those to me.
    Yeah I agree. You stood by me all those times. That’s why we are friends.
    We hold each other’s secret and nightmares.
    And I’ll never stop hating people.
    Men especially. They are all same. All they do is sex you and go like it’s nothing. They are ruthless” Louisa said bitterly.as she remembered those ugly years..
    She’ll never shed tears for it again. Her tear gland is exhausted already.
    “I’m so sorry isa…for reminding you such horrid past. I’m really sorry. 
    Jonathan deserved whatever came to him.”
    “Yeah…sure he did! 
    So Bay, this is it. I really can’t go further. You can board a taxi from here..
    Your conquest must be waiting for you” Louisa added.
    “Yeah…he must be.
    Bye Louisa, just wish me luck” Bayley giggled and quickly walked out of the gate.
    ” Best of luck. You do need it”
    Louisa said and turned back heading to the mashion.
    Bayley is right. She now has a responsibility.
    She prays hard not to screw everything up. 
    She prays she relates well with C.C .
    She hopes she doesn’t turn up like Jonathan Bucks.
    Cause whatever he did to her turned her this cold and made her a shadow of herself.
    🎀🎀🎀 SEVEN YEARS AGO🎀🎀🎀
    Two Months After Mrs Bucks Death.
    “LOUISA!!!!” Jonathan shrieked scorching the rooms for her.
    “Where is that little pest?” He added.
    “Come out now Louisa. You can’t hide from me” Jonathan scoffed, still searching for her.
    He barged open her room door but she wasn’t there either.
    ” I know you can hear me Louisa..
    Better come out now and make this easy for the both of us…I don’t always have to do it the hard way” he cranked.
         There in the wardrobe hid Louisa. Terribly scared.
    Her uncle was gonna start up his rubbish lessons with her as usual.
    Her aunt Natasha Bucks died of cancer two months ago.leaving her at the mercy of her ruthless husband.
    He’s definitely looking for her to teach her those sick smoking and drinking lessons.
    And if she dares resist him, he’ll beat her up mercilessly as if she was a dull.
    She is really scared right now. So so frightened.
    She couldn’t help but son. And that actually gave her in.
    Her uncle’s thunderous shouts made her whimper in fear.
    And Jonathan devishly traced her sons to the wardrobe.
    “Come out you!” He pulled her by the hair .
    ”you thought I was never gonna find you?” Her added dragging her out of the room.
    “Stop it please…you are hurting me. Let me go” Louisa tearfully struggled with her muscularized uncle. He was surely no match for her.
    “Stop that you Imp! ” He slapped her hard across the face. Causing her to spit out blood.
    “That’s what you get anytime you dare defy me or make me search the house for you” he stormed still gripping her by the hair.
    Louisa gasped.
    Her eyes shut in pains as tears flowed endlessly.
    Nothing can express the pain she was passing through in the hands of this man.
    Another struggle with him will result to another slap.
    So she maintained herself and swallowed her cries.
    Just muffled groans escaping her throat.
    Getting to the sitting. He pushed her to the chair.
    ”sit there!” He ordered.
    He moved over to the table before him and picked up the lighter and a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.
    He lit it and took a long drag.
    He then bent over to Louisa and blew it on her face.
    Causing her to cough so hard .

    “I’m ready” he said to his parents and his buddy. Aiden.
    Seon Nichols is the only son of Richard and Monica Nichols.Blessed with riches any one could dream of. Why has he decided to leave all this in search of a job? On his own.
    With his father’s wealthy solely his,he never have to work for the rest of his life. But he doesn’t see it that way.

    And most of all, he wants to forget his old rusty,lusty and womanizing life.
    He wants to be somebody.
    Not by his father’s wealthy. But by his own sweat.
    He has made up his mind.
    “I know I can’t stop you..I’ve tried my best to talk you out of this but your mind is already mad up. I just want you to know that whatever decision you take in life am always with you.

    Seen assured pulling himself into monica’s warm embrace.
    Seen his really going to miss tgis woman..
    He’s made a decision no one understands tge reason why .
    But right now,He’s doubt’s. Is he really ready for this? 
    Leave his town and go in search of something he already has.
    He’s already tired of being a spoilt rich boy.
    He wants to learn the hard way.
       He disengaged from his mom and turned to his dad.
    ”I trust you decision son. I believe you know whats best for you. Am so happy you are thinking like a man which you are already.
    You are no longer a kid and we all can see that now.
    But don’t forget to get out of trouble. Remember yourur mom and i won’t be there with the money to sabmve you as always.
    Be good and show the world you are from a good family.
    We love you seon. Go out there and make us proud”
    Richard clammed seon by his chest.
    “Thanks Dad” seon pulled himself into his dad’s inviting arms.
    Monica once more burst into tears.seon hasn’t lived very far from them before.even during colleges, he was always around.
    Now her son has decided to travel to NEW JERSEY on his own..
    She can’t seem to understand why or what happened gotten into her son.
    “I’ll really miss you”she added ..
    Son got hold of his luggage and smiled at his mom.
    He’ll surely miss her.
    “Seon you can still change your mind about the car..at least,take onevwith you . it’s gonna save your cash”
    Richard suggested again. Causing seon ti frown.
    “Dad i told you before…New Jersey isn’t a place where I’ll go to flaunt myself…I am a nobody there…im starting fresh even though it gonna be hard to cope.I’ll catch up.
    I need just my clothes and not cars or money.
    I wanna go out there and make good use of myself.
    I wanna go out there and have a taste of suffering. I wanna know how it feels like.
    I want to struggle like my mates to know if am fit.
    You’ve already done enough by securing a job for me at new jersey…Heard its one of the best companies.
    Thanks a lot for that.
    And mom I appreciate your concern for me.I’ll surely miss you, this home,my friends. But I will come back as a fulfilled person. I believe its possible…
    Or don’t you wish that for me too?”
    “We do son” they chorused.
    “So wish me luck”he smiled hard and headed out of the sitting room.
    “Canon Aiden, help me with this will you” he added gesturing a bag to him.
    “Goodbye son..best of luck and remember we love you so much” they said as he made way with his friend out of the house.
    `~~~~~~~
    “I’m really gonna miss you buddy”
    Widen admitted truthfully.
    “Me too…I wish I could change my mind about this. But I simply can’t. Its just a decision my spirit is made up to”. He clipped.
    “No problem..but what about Andrea? Don’t you think she’s supposed to know about this.?? I mean she’s your girlfriend remember.;$he’lo be damn worried”
       Yeah, he’s thought of that too.
    “I know she will, that’s why I did not tell her about this. I don’t wanna hold memories of this place. I can’t be thinking of how to survive and also thinking of Andrea.
    Besides, she would never have signed up for this shit…
    She loves me because of my money, I’ve always got the cash to give her anything she wants without asking twice.
    Just imagine how she’d react if I told her. Maybe she’ll try to talk me out of this.
    Noe you see my reasons.. If am ever gonna find true love, she’ll love me for who am planning to be. A simple straight forward guy.
    Not for my money or cute butt face.
    No more hot chicks  flocking around my balls for money. I’m done with them”
    He deadpanned.
    “Its good to know how made up you are for this.  I trust you and wish you luck”
    “Thanks man.”
    “And please do not tell Andrea about my whereabout. I can’t handle her face at my doorstep.  I know she’s gonna pressure you but please, you can’t tell her. Hold your ground ..
    Please promise me that” Seoned Arched giving Aiden a stern look.
    “I promise” Aiden nodded in response.
    “Thanks bud” he patted him on his back.
       `~~~~~~~~
    Minutes later, they arrived the airport. Seon  Nichols has already booked his flight to New Jersey. His plane would be leaving the next ten minutes.
    “The flight to New Jersey will be leaving the ten minutes. All passengers are expected to be on Board..
    I Repeat.
    The flight for New Jersey  will………
    The announcement went on and on…
    “This is it man. Good luck from me. I’ve reached my limits”
    “Thanks Widen…I will miss you”
    He retorted as they both pulled into a warm embrace.
    Aiden bade him once more before he left.
    Son Heaved out repeatedly as he made way to his plane..  He muttered some words which only himself could hear.
    “New Jersey it is…”he smiled
    “A new beginning”.

      Louisa chuckled  within herself.Jonathan Bucks,a good Man?…Really???..Though he’s dead.died of food poisoning three years after his wife Natasha’s death..if Jonathan was a good man as everyone keeps saying would he have done what he did to her?? Or was that his way of showing her his goodness?is  that  how good people behave??…
    If that’s really their way of doing goid then she’s better than everyone..
       Five dark years growing up in the hands of the Bucks taught her alot..she passed through thick and thin…they made her miss her parents so much.
    Louisa had many times shoved those black memories off..to move on at least.
    She missed her mom,…her dad.
    Getting over their death wasn’t easy at all…till date,she blames herself for their death.dragging them out of town to buy her groceries.she was lucky to have survived the incident.all thanks to her mom,Martha Sullivan who wrapped her in her arms to prevent Louisa from ghastly injuries.
    Mr Sullivan wasn’t left out.he hit his head on the windscreen and passed out..
    During this course,their car summersaulted and laid upside down.trapping the trip inside,with the petrol splashing out of it’s tank.
    Martha still had louisa between her arms..they were both awake and conscious if their state but couldn’t move.
    Lucky enough,some onlookers came to the scene to rescue anybody they could.
    “Please…he…lp…save my dau…ghter”she pleaded faintly.
    Blood dripping from her nostrils,and head…there were cuts all over her arms which she wrapped her daughter with.
    “Mama I’m not going any where without you and papa”Louisa cried…clutching her mom so tight.
    “No baby…you’ve got to go…I and papa will come alone once you get out”
    She gave her an assuring smile.
    “Is that a pinky promise?”Louisa pouted.
    “Yes it is”
     She finally let go of her mom as they carried her out.
    “I love you”…Martha whispered as she watched them take her little girl away.
    They were headed to another vehicle..they’ll quickly rush the little girl down to the hospital while they figure out a way to bring out her trapped parents from the car..
    The ambulance is on its way…but before it’ll arrive,they needed to do something before the situation gets any worse.
    Entering the vehicle,there was an explosion.
    BOOM!!!!💥🔥🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥
    Louisa gasped…..”No…”she gave out a high pitched cry…unable to believe it.
    Her mom, he dad……their car…..Fire💥🔥🔥🔥.
    She instantly jumped out from the vehicle and started running towards the burning car..
    “Mama…..papa….don’t leave me….no”….
    She cried more…as she ran….her legs were growing cold…
    Her parents are inside the burning car….
    She can’t ….she can’t….
    …..she….needs to…save them…
    Wailing Louisa was quickly held by some people who followed her from behind.
    Seeing she could no longer go over to the burning car,..she passed out.
       Martha and Jake Sullivan still had the chance to survive,but the car’s leaking petrol fused with the slight sparkling and gave out an explosion…
    That was how she finally landed with Mrs Bucks….her dad’s younger sister.
    Louisa wiped her face,she hated crying…it makes her feel weak and so vulnerable.
    Some memories are better left forgotten.
    Her suffering only began after the death of Mrs Bucks…leaving her at the mercy if her husband,Jonathan Bucks.
    Some experiences she doesn’t want to share.memories and her past that made her what she is today.secluded,weird,freak,and different from others.
    She’s this way not her fault…
    Nobody understands her pains…she’s never ready to let anyone in…
    No one can console her injured spirit,her bleeding heart..
    She needs no one to love her,she love herself for herself…
    And she’s good with that.
         It was really dark ,dim lights could only be seen from streets light and locked houses. Louisa really got some nerves to walk alone by herself at that hour…
    Getting closer to her house,she stopped.
    Something was off…faint noises…she wasn’t alone.
    She managed to trace it to where it was coming from,..
    It was behind a store,….the voices became clearer.
    “Let me go” a little feminine voice cried.
    ”Come here sweet, I ain’t done with your”
    A croacky voice pulled the little girl by her hair..
    ”Ouch….you’re hurting me…let me go”she cried out in pains.
    “That’s what I do bitch…I hurt prettys like you”
    Louisa watched keenly…what’s he up to??she asked herself.
    Then she heard some tickling sounds…
    The croacky voice was unbuckling his shorts…
    It finally dawned on Louisa what he was tryna do.
    He was going to rsoe here….
    Louisa can’t allow that..she could already hear the soft whimper from the girl.
    She needs to do something.
    “Come here baby….I’m ready for you”
    He dragged her by the hair and pushed her hard to the ground.
    “Leave me alone….help! Help!  Somebo….
    But he covered her mouth.
    “Shut up…you’re gonna draw attention…..trust me love….you’ll enjoy this”
    He said running his hands all over her body.
    Thats it….Louisa has seen enough.
    She bumped out of her hideout.startling the both of them..
    “You heard the girl,let her go”.
    He quickly stood up from her..
    “Look who’s come to join the party”he smirked..
    “I said let the girl go”she  repeated..
    “Or what??”he drew closer to Louisa…
    His erected d==k stretched out from his shorts…
    This guy has no shame…Louisa spat out and gripped him by his d==k…
    “Aaaaarrrrrgghhhhh”..he groaned..
    “Hurts huh?”louisa pressed it harder…
    ”Let me see you f==k her this…useless fool”she cussed releasing it.
    He fell so hard in the floor groaning in pains…nothing pains more than this….he writhed his teeth and swallowed hard tears.
    “What have  you done Bitch”…
    Louisa smiled,she loved the sound of that..
    She walked past him and move over to the scared little girl…
    “Who are you…what are you doing out here in the dark”
    “I’m Cara I….”..
    Hold the phone….
    She’s younger than louusa expected,she could yell from her voice.
    ”Youre just a kid”
    Louisa said staring deep at her…
    “You are a foolish f**ker”
    “How old are you Ciara?”
    “Twelve….am twelve “she answered shoving her hair from her face.
    “Twelve??”…
    Louisa turned to the middle aged man…
    “You’re still here…huh?? Scrambled out of this place….you searcged the entire city and couldn’t find your mate….shame on you!”she cursed.
    “You better leave here before I cut that thing  dangling between your rotten legs”
    She stormed….
    At the sound of that,he jerked up from the floor and scurried away…
    “Cara where do you live?….your parents??who are they??”sge asked but ciara shooked her head not saying a thing…
     Louisa exhaled 
    “You look exhausted….pretty tired I guess…come along with me and stay at my place tonight…
    We’ll talk about this tomorrow….and maybe you’ll get back to your parents….they must be sick worried”…
       Louisa carried her and left for the mashion…
    Both looking tired..
    Lo us a couldn’t help but wondered what a twelve years old girl could be doing outside by this time of the night….
    Anyway,tomorrow ,….she’s gonna find out.
