SAME NIGHT, 9PM~CARSON’S MANSION*
Emory lay quietly on her bed, her eyes fuรงking puffy and her lashes wet with tears.
She’s curved into a ball, scrolling through her galley and staring at the pictures she snapped with Lizzy alone, and the ones the four of them snapped together.
Their girlfriend date at the beach last year summer,, Rebekah’s birthday last year on a cruise ship, and when they spent their vacation together in Paris in the beginning of this year.
There are so many pictures, and as she scrolled, she cried.
It was Rebekah and Nina who brought her home from the bridge since she refused to allow Levi.
The two offered to spend the night with her, but she had to disagree, just to be alone.
She started deleting Lizzy’s pictures one by one, and when she got to a particular video, she pressed play.
Lizzy is grilling meat while Nina and Rebekah are dancing in the background.
Emory is the one making the video so she didn’t appear.
“Are you both gonna dance all day? I can’t grill all the meat myself!” Lizzy said.
“Aren’t you the mommy figure? Come to think of it you’re already 22 but we’re all 21. Be the mommy and stop complaining” Nina said, twerking on Rebekah.
“Emz should I just kill them?” Lizzy faced the camera.
“I support” Emory replied from the background, and Lizzy immediately left the grill, chasing Rebekah and Nina around while Emory laughed.
Emory cried harder watching it, and as she pressed delete, she felt her head banging.
Headache.
She dropped the phone, and Sybil came in, holding her phone and watching the news on it.
Lizzy’s body was found with a bullet in her chest at river Cema around 8pm. The discovery was made after the cops received an anonymous report about how someone jumped into the river.
Her house is currently under search, and a human robot was found with several vibrators which she named LEVI. The trenchcoat and vans were found too, but the biggest shocker is the dead body of North Diaz…
Sybil sighed as she sat in bed beside Emory…
“Do you want me to sleep here?” She asked.
“Don’t bother” Emory’s faint voice came.
“But for real… Banks is scary. I almost peed myself when he shot Lizzy on the bridge.” Sybil said.
“Can i stay alone?” Emory said.
“Sure, goodnight” Sybil stood and left the room.
Her parents came in almost immediately, but Emory pretended to be asleep.
Tate gave her a deep kiss on the forehead, and Mr. Carson sighed.
“She doesn’t deserve this” he said.
“But who killed Lizzy?” Tate asked.
“Isn’t it obvious? It’s probably suicide. She’s an obsessed girl who’d do anything to be noticed. Didn’t you see what they found in her house? A human robot and plastic penises and… don’t even let me start” Mr. Carson said.
Emory listened with heavy eyes till her parents left the room too, then her phone began ringing.
She took it, but the moment she saw ‘Criminal’ as the caller, she dropped the phone.
This will be his tenth call since she came home, and she hasn’t picked any.
She sank herself into the sheets, closing her eyes.
*
RAIN’S PLACE*
Every goddamn appliance in the house is currently scattered on the ground, either broken, cracked or shattered.
Rain has been throwing things away since she came back from the bridge, and right now she’s standing in the middle of the mess she made.
Levi’s words to Emory at the bridge rang in her head again…
“I’LL KILL YOUR PARENTS EVEN IF THEY’RE THE ONES WHO HURT YOU. I WASN’T BLUFFING WHEN I SAID THAT,.. FOX”
So Emory is the fox?
Gawd…gawd…
She picked a stool and threw it at the TV, shattering it too before entering her bedroom.
She knocked down all the stuffed foxes and sat on the ground, backing the wall as she began crying.
“Emory haven’t you done enough? Why must you take everything from me!!!”
*
TERRAVERDE PALACE*
Rebekah is sitting up in bed, backing her pillow while holding a framed picture of herself and Lizzy.
She could still remember she sneaked out of the palace the day they snapped that picture.
She secretly went out with Lizzy alone, just to make Nina and Emory jealous.
“It shouldn’t have been you, Lizzy” she mumbled, throwing the frame at the wall.
It broke, and Conrad came in.
“I see she’s getting thrashed already” he said, picking up the broken frame.
He threw it out.
“Did you eat?” He asked.
“Yeah, but it was bitter” she replied, and he sat beside her.
“Want something to quench the bitterness?” He said.
“What?” She blinked, and he snapped his fingers.
A maid brought in the biggest pint of ice cream, making her gasp.
Conrad took it, and the maid left, then he handed it to her.
“Have fun” he stood to leave.
“No, stay longer!” She quickly said.
“And what do I get in return?” He smirked.
“I dunno… anything” she shrugged, and he sat back.
She opened the pint and began eating with the small spoon.
“I feel better” she said.
“Courtesy…yours truly” he winked.
“You’re so full of yourself” she replied, and he smiled.
“I know”
Rebekah moved closer to him, making sure their arms are touching before she continued eating.
*
NINA’S PLACE*
Nina is standing in front of her wardrobe, staring at the dress she and Lizzy twinned with.
Sadness swirled in her eyes as she stared, and she slowly took the gown.
She hugged it to her chest. “Lizzy” She muttered in disappointment.
She walked to the disposal bowl and threw the gown inside, then she went back to her bed was about to climb up when the door barged open, and her foster mother came in.
“Get out here and take Sabrina’s bags inside” she ordered.
Nina blinked. “Sabrina is back?”
“Out” Mrs. Young replied with a roll of her eyes before leaving.
“An evil girl left, but another evil one just arrived. Perfect. Very perfect” Nina muttered, leaving the room.
She went downstairs and met Sabrina coming in with the parents.
She’s their real daughter, the bitch.
“This charity case is still here?” Sabrina said with a sneer, eyeing Nina like a fly.
“We had no choice. Someone has to wash the cars” Mr. Young said.
“That’s kinda true, but her face annoys me” Sabrina said, walking up to Nina.
“Welcome home, miss” Nina greeted respectfully, and Sabrina sniffed the air around her tauntingly.
“You didn’t change, you still smell like an orphan” she grinned, pushing her out of the way.
“You know how I like my tea, right?” Bring it upstairs after taking in my things” she said, going upstairs.
“Welcome back my baby!!” Mrs. Young shouted, following her with her husband.
Nina went out, and her her jaws dropped when she saw the big bags waiting beside the car.
Should she have told the girls about her sufferings during the truth circle?
She made to lift one of the bags, but it pulled her down, and she fell.
“Darn it”

LOFT*
Levi came here alone after leaving the bridge.
He’s currently in the gym room, working himself on a chest press machine and sweating profusely.
Just the sound of his harsh breath filled the gym, and as his muscles tightened and loosened, he groaned, reminiscing about what happened at the bridge.
He felt satisfied immediately he released that bullet into Lizzy’s heart, though that’s just a mini version of what he was planning to do before.
He’d have captured her and tortured her brutally till life falls out of her mouth, but the dignity of dying with just a bullet is because Emory still considered her a friend even till the last minute.
He stopped his exercise and got his phone, dialling Emory’s line for the twentieth time.
She’s still not picking.
He should be on his way to her mansion right now and hack his way into her door again, but he decided against that tonight.
She can cry all she wants for Lizzy tonight, and they’ll just continue the drill tomorrow.
He’ll give her a hard-to-give break, and then he can barge into her space again.
If she behaves stubborn, he’d have no choice but chain her up again no matter the consequences.
He left the gym, his body glossing with sweat, but he was surprised to see the tiger sitting at the door
It’s like it’s been waiting for him.
He crouched in front of it and stroked it’s back.
“What’s up, Buddy” he said.
The tiger locked eyes with him, and he instantly saw his mother’s eyes in it’s eyes.
Though he never set eyes on Xusan, but he saw plenty of her pictures with Master X, and she’s the most beautiful Chinese woman ever.
She owned this tiger when she was still alive, and it was passed down to him together with the foldable belt when he turned fifteen.
FLASHBACK, AGE FIFTEEN*
“You’re giving him a tiger and a belt as his fifteenth birthday present?” Uncle Reginald said surprisingly.
Levi has been staying with him and his wife since he was born. Master X refused him totally, claiming he’s a devil.
“They’re gifts from Xusan, not from me” Master X replied.
His back is on them like he does anytime they come with Levi.
“Thank you, father” Levi said slowly.
“Take him out of here” Master X replied, and tears fell from Levi’s eyes to his black shirt.
BACK TO THE PRESENT*
Levi stood slowly and retrieved his phone.
He ordered spicy beef, and it came in a jiffy.
He took the order and emptied in a plate for the tiger.
It was eating peacefully as Levi climbed the stairs, dialling Emory’s line for the 21st time.

TERRAVERDE GRILL*
Chadwick pulled his new car up in front of the building, and he was smiling as he stepped out.
He admired the red Maybach for like two minutes before entering the grill.
He waited by the door, searching with his eyes till he saw Issac.
Isaac waved, and he walked to him, rolling his car keys in hand.
“You got a new car? Cool” Isaac smiled.
“Sure, you heard about Lizzy’s death?” Chadwick asked.
“Of course, it’s the news of the night. They said it’s suicide, she was obsessed” Isaac replied, and Chadwick nodded.
“Well deserved”
“Why did you want to meet me?” Isaac asked.
“It’s about Hyce” Chadwick replied.
“Did he send you to…me?” Isaac asked quickly.
“Nuh-uh… I’m here on my own. Look, i know you’re not gay, but maybe if you just become friends with him, he might be ok with that. This guy will do anything for you. You’re like his button” Chadwick said.
“Hyce is cool and kind. He’s like my helper, but…
“But what?” Chadwick asked.
“But he hates me now” Isaac replied.
“That’s bull, he doesn’t. In fact, he’s at his father’s mansion tonight, and it’s not far from here. You know McCall mansion right? You can go confirm” Chadwick said.
“For real?” Isaac stood, grabbing his bag.
Chadwick nodded, and Isaac rushed out of the grill.
“Mix beer and rue for me please!” He hollered at the bar man.
“Sure!” The man replied, and Chadwick smiled.
