Ciara’s POV
I know you all think when I called Jordan Marcias a driver that I didn’t know he was actually the boss…
He looked like the boss, from his expensive Italian suit, his shoes, the watch and the similarity features between him and the twins…
I just wanted to put him into his place. I could see Mason and Natalie signalling me to shut up but I didn’t care..He think he runs the world when actually he just runs the business his father left behind for him
when he died…
If his grandfather did not steal so many lands after our independence or used his smart br@ins to better the future of his descendants to come he would probably be a fruit vendor..
. He might act all mighty and arrogant but the bo-ttomline was his grandfather was a thief…
Back to things that mattered, working for Jaxon was fun but pretty tiresome as well..In his albu-m he had twelve songs and in those twelve songs he nee-ded a different outfit to perform three songs…In short I nee-ded to design four unique sets together with his dancers and backup singers…
I was un-der a good kind of pressure but my personal problems were a barrier to me keeping up. I missed my parents and David so much…
I walked throu-gh the gate only to bu-mp into arrogant man and Emma..
. To me she seemed beautiful and se-duc-tive, something to be admired from a distance… When he saw me, he quic-kly dropped her hand like it was on fire.. I wish he knew I didn’t care even if he d@tĀ£d the Pope…
“Hey Ciara,” she hvgged me and before I could respond she continued, “I hope you will consider me as your model in your next project…”
“Okay…” I walked past them ignoring the sculpture beside her…
When I walked inside the fashion studio and found Natalie busy perfecting her sketches…
. Half of me was proud of her and another half was jealous of how ha-rd -working she was…
“Natalie, this is perfect. I am glad you followed what I suggested…” I smiled looking at the perfect sketches in front of me…
“Thanks Ciara…”
“So what do you say, you accompany me at the Fashion show this weekend???I really nee-d a plus one…”
“Are you sure???” I nodded and she begun jumping up and down excitedly, dancing me around, “You won’t regret it…”
“Okay enough with the dancing, I am getting dizzy…”
We were so busy with work, finishing up with the sketches, trying to put rou-gh designs together when I smelt a familiar cologne…It was Jaxon…
By the thought of him, my heart pounded foolishly….
“Good morning beautiful ladies???”
“Good morning Jaxon…”Natalie responded with a smile whereas I tried to get the words but couldn’t…
“Are you okay Ciara??” He placed the hand on my shoulder and I could feel fire all over my bĀ©dy… I eyed him from tĀ©p to bottom, admiring everything I saw… Damn I wanna rest on that che-st, sweetl-ips mamammia…
“Ciara???” I shook my thoughts off..
“Excuse me.” I turned around and ran to the washroom. Yes, he was my celebrity crush but I didn’t know he had such an intense effect on me…
I rinsed my face severally but my heart still sang in delight as my mind drove my thoughts to weird places…
Picturing him shi-tless, hisl-ips on myl-ips, him serenading me and how perfect I looked into his arms…
Lord what was happening???
I looked myself in the mirror and sl@pped myself so ha-rd …
“Focus Ciara, he is your boss…”
I got out of the washroom and found him waiting for me,” Are you okay???”
“Yes, No, No, Yes….I am fine…” I finally sh0t him cold eyes after much struggle…
“I know what you nee-d, some motivation…” He said, gr-abbing my hand and pu-lling me out of the studio…
“Where are we going???” I asked but didn’t get an answer only wild hor-mones…
In the car, the silence was very weird..All he did was sing melting my heart away… I was drowning in his sweet voice and couldn’t help it…
“Here we are…” He snapped me out of my fantasies….
“What are we doing here???” I asked when I got out of the car. We were in the middle of nowhere…
“I want you to find your motivation and i think I might help you…” He got his guitar from the back seat, held my hand,”Come..”
We silently walked for a while until we reached a river… The place looked beautiful with the trees, the still water and the chirping birds…
“This place is beautiful,” I smiled looking around…
“I know, so sit down and I will take your sorrows away…”
I sat at the rock beside him and listened to him as he sung my sorrows away. Indeed music is always the medicine…
His golden voice carried me away that I begun moving my head side to side, snapping my f!ngersas my eyes welled with tears…
I love you my honey
I don’t want anyone but you
You make me feel perfection
All I want is you by my side
“That was beautiful,” I fanned myself not to cry…
“Yeah, it was a song I was to sing to my ex the day she dumped you. I was…..”
“You were going to meet her at the Parki gardens after you recorded this song only for her to tell you it’s over…” I bu-tted in..
After realising that I had unleashed my parrot side, I covered my face with my hands.
“I am sorry i talk too much…”
“No, I am just surprised of how much you know me….” He dropped my hands from my face,”How do you know me so much???”
“I am your biggest fan..” I blurted out smiling like a fool..
“And I am also your biggest fan…” He k!$$Ā£d my hand ma-king my cheeks warm with embarras-sment…
“So let me sing another song for my biggest fan…”
Guess which song it was…
Left behind by Jaxon Marcias
You knew I loved you but you left anywei
I am a sad song on repeat
How am I to heal my broken heart??
When I didn’t want you to leave me behind
The song he re-leased after Tabby dumped him.. When he sung that song, memories of me and David flooded my mind and I couldn’t hold back my tears…
I felt the person un-derstood my pain, his voice was meant to sooth my broken heart and the words were to make me cry…
I couldn’t hold back…
“Ciara, why are you crying???”
“He left too…”
Those were the last words I said before he imprisoned me in his arms….

Episode 6
Ciara’s POV
Finally the fashion show was here… Yeah I was excited but not as much as Natalie who couldn’t stĀ©p talking about it..
We meet at my house where we got re-ady before taking an Uber to Pare Eastside where the fashion show was been held.
Natalie decided to go with a simple look: An off shoulder jumpsuit with sequin floral but me on the other hand wore the dress that I had designed for my graduation afterp@rty which sadly didn’t happen…
It was a dress that was made with shimmering metallic crepe that shone un-der the light… It had a de-ep V-nĀ£Ā¢k bodice that as captivating and thin spaghetti lines that crossed over my open back gathering at the banded natural w@!stline.
. It also had a translucent overl@yon the A-line Sk-irt that allowed a peek at the coordinating lining with side slits..It was radiantly elegant…
“You look gorgeous Ciara…” Max turned me around to have a better view of the dress.
“You will be the most beautiful girl in the fashion show…”Jane said.
“Thanks guys but we nee-d to go…” I held Natalie’s hand and literally pu-ll-ed her from the house to the car that was waiting for us…
On our way there we just talked about the expected guests and what we would want to see in the fashion show….
When we arrived at the event, we got out of the car and walked towards the red carpet where I was hijacked with several fashion designers wannabes…
Yes, I loved selfies and compliments but at times they were tiring…Arrrrrgh!!!!
Yeah I wanna help people fulfill their dreams but not literally hold their hands in every step of the way..
I had some ph0tos taken at the red carpet and walked towards the other guests…Indeed Sebastian didn’t disappoint…
I could spĀ©t all fashion gurus in the house…Damn I love a room full of fashionistas..
“Hey I love your dress…” A familiar voice said behind me…
Words were stuck on my throat when I turned around only to see my role model wearing the utmost perfect smile…
Kendi Joy, sweet waters this woman was an icon. Everything she wears brings out her s-xuality and confidence…
“I would like a dress like this,” She said blissfully and I nodded my eyes glued on her dress…
“Here is my number, call me…” She walked away.
What just happened??? Did a fashion icon just love my dress???? Watch out world, this girl is ma-king it..Mama, your girl has made it….
“Everyone kindly sit down the event is about to begin…” The Emcee requested and guess who it was David…Yeah the same dude you cheated on me, who got a girl pregnant behind my back, who helped me fulfill my dreams….
Yes, he was an Emcee in a certain cultural event three years ago in my college when he noticed my amazing creative work and referred me to Sebastian and Mary who helped me make my dream a reality…
Maybe I fell in love with him because I was grateful but whatever!!!! He cheated and life moves on.
Who am I kidding??? It hurts like $h!t….
I looked around for Natalie but she was busy taking selfies with everyone in the room and so I sat my bu-tt down minding my business…
Moment after moment, David’s eyes and mine could meet but I chose to ignore…I didn’t want to kill him infront of all these people…You get me, I didn’t want to humiliate him…
After minutes of waiting the fashion show finally begun…Sebastian officially launched his new clothing line comfortable in style and left the models to do their work in impressing the clients…
Comfortable in style was basically a clothing line that involved sweatp@n-ts, sweatshi-ts, hoodies and tank tĀ©ps…Sebastian had designed them in different ways in which the ladies could wear anywhere but still feel comfortable and S-xy….
When the models walked the catwalk dressed in the new clothing created, I appreciated the detail and the craftsmansh!pof every single piece…
The illumination of the clothing on the runway using various form of lighting and special effects was amazing..
. The different soundtracks to each section of the show from different artists, the good job done by the Emcee on keeping the energy of the crowd up and moving the show at the right speed made it the Fashion show of the year…
If that wasn’t enough Jaxon Marcias, my one and only got on stage ma-king girls go gaga…
He had on a white dinner jacket paired with black p@n-ts and a black bow tie…Yes i dressed him..
When he begun singing, the room was filled with screams as I looked at him with admiration. He was a handsome man…
His first song was Baby..
Baby, baby
I promise to be there when you nee-d me
Hold your hand when you falling
k!ssyou when you wake up
And hold on ti-ght to you
When you are giving up
Baby, baby
Trust me when I say it’s only you
When I make promises
And When I look into your eyes
Believe all words I say
Because they are coming from the bo-ttomof my heart
When singing, he walked around greeting the ladies but when he reached to me, he k!$$Ā£d my hand and win-ked ma-king my toes wiggle…
Damn, alert!!!! alert!!!! Tears threatening to fall…I don’t know why but when he was performing the song I thought he was singing it to me….I felt like it was a sign that we were meant to be…
Imagine him on stage performing and I in the front row supporting him, designing him the best performing set of clothes the world has ever seen…
Then he went ahead and sang the sad song, left behind which left most of the girls in tears before announcing his albu-m launch which was in two months….
I wish his ex knew what she was missing…Who would dump Jaxon Marcias????
After the event was done we walked into the ballroom beside where the fashion show was held for the afterp@rty..
I walked around looking for Jaxon only to bu-mp into Jordan who I fell into his arms…
Why do I always bu-mp into this arrogant man?????
*******
Why is Attitude always meeting Arrogance?
