“Are you sure about this?”
“Huh? And if it doesn’t work out I can always come back”
Leo held her hand.
“If it doesn’t work out…let’s comeback ok?”
“You’re going back too?”
“Of course…you don’t expect me to let you go alone”
“What about your work?”
“It turned out for the better…I’ll just accept the offer being given to me…I’ll transfer to the branch there”
“Are you sure about this?”
“If it doesn’t work out…I can always come back” he smiles.
“If you say so then…I’m sure you must have figured everything out”
“Are you ready?”
“Huh? By next week…I’ll…leave”
“Good…that’s perfect…” He smiles hugging her.
“There’s something I haven’t told you Ura”
“Which is?”

“I know…I heard…somehow”
“Really…are you going?”
“Seriously…what do you expect? They’re my friends after all…we should go together”
“That’s perfect…we’re going together” he grins and Mercury smiles.
“Alright let me be on my way now…candy must have been waiting for me…we have some place to be”
“My regards to her…?”
FLAWLESS STUDIO.
“look into his eyes…yeah…that feeling…that feeling of longing…yeah…exactly …I love that” the director keep saying as Mercury looks at the guys beside her which is also a model by name Chris Falwell.
Chris looks at another model Sha sha Evans with love while Mercury is to look at him with longing.
“This is perfect! Chris put more effort…make your heart filled with love…look at her with your love…Mercury you’re doing great…I love that look of yours…keep it up keep it up…?”
Candy sighs looking at Mercury who looks at the guy with so much feeling of longing.
Nobody else may not have noticed but she knew her emotion has gotten over her.
She’s thinking of him.
“When is this damn thing ending?” Candy mutters to herself in annoyance.
Mercury on the other way was too lost in her emotion that she didn’t realize a tear has escaped her eyes.
“Awesome! Wow Mercury as usual you’re the best!” He claps moving closer to her.
“How did you manage to always do this with perfection? You surprise me everytime”
Mercury only smiles cleaning the tear.
“It’s part of my job anyway”
“I love the last part when the tear escaped your eyes…it makes it feel so real…as expected it wasn’t a mistake choosing you for this”
“Thank you director”
He nodded.
“Chris? Wow you amazed me too…you know I think you two are really perfect…you’re the ace of FLAWLESS keep it up”
They both smiles and the director excused them.
“Sha Sha come here we have to talk…?”
“You seem carried away earlier…thinking of your boyfriend…the dealer guy” Chris asked tucking his hand in his pocket with a smirk.
Mercury smiles.
“Why don’t you fuck off Mr Chris? Or should I help you?”
“Stop playing it hard already…even ladies better and prettier than you listen to us…just take a look at me..I’m handsome that that dealer of a guy…open your eyes darling…I’ll treat you better…come to me”
“Maybe when dogs fly” she rolls her eyes.
“You think you’re all that just because you’re famous? Listen I promise you this at the end you’ll come back begging…and I can’t wait for that day uh?” He lick his lower lip seductively.
“Go fuck yourself jerk!” Mercury nudge him leaving.
DRESSING ROOM.
“You know I observed you’ve been moody lately…did Leo did something again?” Candy asked as she apply make up on her face.
“It’s nothing…?”
“Don’t bullshit me..it is something?” She sighs.
“Is this about him? Your first love?”
“It’s…it’s not…?”
“Wake up already Mercury! It’s been six years already! Six good years”
“I know…I…didn’t sat anything”
“But you’re saying a lot with your eyes right now…you long for him ”
“I don’t…I have Leo and more so…he’s getting married”
“Married?”
Mercury sighs.
“Is that why you’re moody? You were thinking of that?”
“That wasn’t…I…im just nervous to see them all again…what if…what if they’re all still angry at me? What if they don’t want me anymore? I miss them so much but what if they don’t feel the same?”
“Look babe…I’m sure they’ll be happy to see you”
“It’s been six years…what if…they’ve forget me?”
“Is this still about your friends or someone else?”
She looks away.
“Don’t worry about it…everything would be fine. Have you gotten the wedding gift?”
“Not yet”
“Then let’s do that after this…you can’t go empty handed”
She nodded.
“Cheer up Will you? Or else I’ll just inform Leo”
“Don’t you dare!”
“Smile or dare me” she crossed her arms.
Mercury grinned showing her teeth.
“Wow…that looks so fake”
“It’s isn’t…don’t you dare say anything to Leo..?”
“Let’s get you dolled up”
A WEEK LATER.
Mercury got down from the airplane with sweaty hands.
She sighs deeply.
“Babe are you okay?” Leo asked looking at her.
“I…I’m just nervous..I’m finally back home”
Leo smiles.
“No need to be…it’s fine..remember I’m here with you”
He held her hand and she forced a smile.
“Miss I got a facemask for you..you don’t want those crazy fans tearing you apart before you get to see your house”
“Thanks cand” she smiles collecting the facemask and wore it
“Let’s go…?” She breathe out and they started leaving.
“It’s Mercury!” Someone shouted and they look back to see the fans running towards them.
“How did they found out?” Mercury asked and Candy shrugged.
“What a great manager you are”
“That’s why I asked you to get Some fucking guards but you refused”
“Hey guys this isn’t a time for argument…let’s get out of here first” Leo said and Mercury groaned
“Argh! Headache”
They tried to escape from there but they were double crossed by the reporters.
“How great!” She groaned.
“Just answer a few questions”.
“But those people never run out of questions”
“Just shut up and smile”
“Miss Mercury! How was your trip?”
“Why did you come back?”
Is the rumor about you dating the popular model Chris Falwell true?”
“How does it feel like to be back after many years?”
“Why did you break your contract with the CLASSIC SHOW?”
“Are you back for good?”
Mercury smiles and remove her glasses and face mask.
“Oh my she’s so gorgeous!”
“My role model…?”
“I love you MJ”
“Her smile is a killer”
“Can I get just a hug?”
“MJ YOU’RE SO PRETTY”
“First I would like to tell you it feels good to be back home. About going back I’m not sure of that yet. The rumors about Chris and I am sure everything have been cleared we’re just co workers. And my trip was fantastic” she smiles and started leaving with Leo and candy.
“Miss Mercury! Miss Mercury who was that guy with you in the picture at the greenpark?”
“Is he your lover? You two were hugging”
“When are you settling down?!”
“Are you taking over your father’s company now that you’re back…I heard he’s not feeling so well”.
” will you give up your career of being a model?”
“Seriously…why do they like poke nosing in other’s business…it’s my life not theirs”
“That’s what you get for being a celeb” candy replied as they rushed out of there.
“How annoying…?” She said and Leo smiles.
“I can’t wait to get out of here…?” she increased her pace and her fans with the reporters keep following her with questions but had to stop when she heard something.
“You went to Italy immediately after Mrs Morgan your supposed to be mother in law died how do you feel leaving your mourning fiance?”
“Did you regret it?”
Now the fans have began to murmur between themselves.
“Why did you do that when you should be by his side?”
“Did you ever feel guilty for doing that?”
“Take her in” candy said to Leo before going to the reporters angrily.
“I am MJ’s manager…I’m here to tell you we won’t condole you making false report or saying offensive statement when you don’t even know the full story. It’ll be better you stop here or else you’ll have to face the consequences…thank you” she said and went to meet them in the car.
“Are you okay?” Leo asked.
“I’m fine..?” She smiles.
“Don’t listen to them…they are just looking for what they can make news out of”
“I’m gonna lie down for a while..I’m feeling headache”
“Alright…i won’t disturb you”
THE HOSPITAL.
Mercury sighs for the umpteen time before going in.
“Mom…?”
“Oh…Mars my dear…you’re finally here” she stood up hugging her.
“How is Dad?”
“He just fell asleep…he has been waiting for you”
“How’s his health? Mom I want you to tell me everything…what’s really happening to him?” She asked and her mother sighs.
“He’s just getting weak…the stress and everything…you know he’s aged now”
“Are you sure it’s just stress?”
“How was your trip my dear?”
“Well…how are you fairing?”
“Well…except that I really missed my noisy Mars”
“I missed you too…both of you”
She hugs her.
“Earth…?” They both heard Mr Jordan’s weak voice.
“Dad…?”
“My daughter…my beautiful daughter…? Mercury helps him sit up.
“You’re back”
“You look rough Dad…is mom not taking care of you? Should I get you another wife?”
“I’m fine my daughter…let me manage with your mom for now…my sweet daughter..come here let me take a good look at you…?”
Mercury moves closer and Mr Jordan put his palm on her face.
“You look more beautiful now…?”
“Of course…I’m grown up I should look more beautiful…I missed you Dad..?” She hugs him.
Mrs Jordan looks at them with teary eyes…she feels so happy her daughter is back.
Finally their family will be complet once again.
JORDAN’S HOUSE.
Mercury enters the house and look around.
Still the same.
Nothing much changed.
She smiles.
She really missed this place.
It’s been six years already and finally she’s back.
She went up to her room.
Just like they day she left it.
Her eyes became teary as she remembers the day she was leaving.
“Finally I’m back…?” She mutters to herself.
She dropped her hand bag on the bed.
She went to her desk and saw the pictures frame.
The one with her friends.
“I miss us…?”
The one with her and Clark in the water.
“I’m back…Clark…?” She mutters hugging the pictures to herself.
LATER AT NIGHT.
The Jordan’s laughs as they reminisce on the past.
It’s been such a longs time they all data to eat together.
Maybe three years now after her parents left her in Italy.
“Thinking of it now…I really missed your food Dad…it’s so good unlike mom’s”
“Wow…awesome telling me I can’t cook”
“I never said you can’t…it’s just that Dad is better than yours…when ever I wanna get married I’m gonna marry a man good in cooking just like that”
“Good luck on that” Mrs Jordan said.
“You don’t know how lucky you are mom”
“Tell her already…?” Mr Jordan said and they both giggles.
“Seriously guys…I can be a better cook”
“So says Mrs Jordan” They laugh again.
“Whatever…?” Mrs Jordan said.
“Darling…don’t worry I can always cook for you if you want”
“Right just let him do the cooking from now on” Mrs Jordan also said.
“By the way have you arranged your room? You can see we touched nothing…now that you’re back…you can do whatever you want with it”
“Erm…Dad…Mom…?”
“Yes princess”
“I’m going back tomorrow”
They all stopped eating.
“What do you mean? Why would you go back when you just came back?” Mrs Jordan asked.
“Not to Italy…I mean…I’m not staying here…my manager has gotten an apartment for me. I’m saying there”
She said and everywhere went silent.
“But why? This is your house. You don’t need to go anywhere”
“I…just wanna live alone like…I wanna be independent”
“Are you…mad at us?”
“I’m not mom…I’m 23 now…I’m a grown up…I just wanna have a place of my own…I’ll always visit you I promise”
“Dear_”
“It’s okay…I understand…if you wanna have a place of your own then it’s okay…you’re a big lady now” Mr Jordan said
“Thank you Dad” she grins
“Eat”
She nodded and continue eating while Mrs Jordan sighs.
MERCURY’S ROOM.
She sighs as she lays on her bed.
She smiles at the thought of her being home.
But then her heart started beating rapidly when she remembers.
The wedding is tomorrow.
How is it gonna be?
They’re getting married tomorrow.
THE WEDDING DAY.
Mercury dressed up gorgeously as always.
She looks like a gorgeous.
She sighs for the umptillion time rubbing her hand together.
Leo called earlier saying he’ll meet her there so she’s only going with her manager candy.
“Are you okay?” Candy asked and she smiles.
Truth be told she’s nervous as hell and also a bit dejected.
If she hadn’t left then.
She would be his wife now.
Candy held her hand.
“We’re here” she said and her heart skip a beat.
They got out of the car and head to the wedding venue.
“Oh…it’s MJ”
“Why is she here?”
“She looks so beautiful…?”
Mercury smiles nervously as she proceed walking.
But then she stopped when her eyes caught something.
She stood there staring at it for a while making sure she’s not seeing wrong.
“What is it?” Candy asked.
“Cand look at that…am I seeing it right?”
Candy looks at the direction she’s looking and saw a large pictures of a beautiful lady and an handsome guy.
“Wow…he’s so cute…the groom is a killer Mec” Candy grins.
“The bride is so lucky…Mec you have good looking friends..?”
Mercury just stares.
“Can you read the names for me?” She asked.
“What? Olive hearts Carly?” She asked and Mercury faced her.
“Olive? It’s Olive?” She grins and Carly gave her a weird look.
“She’s getting married to Olive not him” she smiles widely.
