“Alexaaaa! You are late!” Alexa heard her mum’s thun-derous voice.
“Oh sh*t!” Alexa exclaimed standing up from her be-d she looked around and didn’t see Alicia. She growled angrily. She looked at her phone screen and written boldly on it was; 10:45am.
“Like seriously? Darn it! When did I turn into Aurora, The so-called slee-ping princess! Aiish! I begged Alicia to wake me up but she left? She’s insane,I’m gonna kill her!!” Alexa cussed angrily.
Alexa sle-pt pretty late that night. She burnt her midnight oil that night. She was studying ha-rd for her examinations and she was now trying a lot better than before. She ran like flash to the bathroom. She brushed her teeth and had a quic-k cold bathe.
“Aiish! So Cold!!” Alexa yelled which made Mr Lynn laugh. Mrs Lynn shaked her head trying to set things in order at the restaurant.
“Good morning Dad, Good Morning Mum!” Alexa greeted in a loud voice running out of the bathroom with her furred white towel.
“Good Morning, Alexa” Mrs Lynn replied.
“Good Morning Darling, How was your sleep?” Mr Lynn asked laughing.
“Dad, Let’s not talk about it!” Alexa yelled entering the room.
Alexa scattered her hair shaking her head left and right, she took the comb on the table and r0ûghly used it on her hair.
In the next scene, Alexa was shown wra-pping the long thick white bandage around her che-st down to her w@!st. She pinned the t©p and bottom. She quic-kly brou-ght out a black shi-t and jeans. She wore it swiftly and ran out.
“Hey! Won’t you eat?” Mrs Lynn asked at the t©p of her voice watching Alexa who ran like crazy.
“I’m late! Later!..Keep Mine!” Alexa yelled back leaving the scene.
“Why is she such in a rush?. She never misses her meal even if she has important things to attend to” Mrs Lynn thought.
“Alicia and her father must have left by now. I wonder why she hide from Alexa?” She thought again and sm-irked.

“Miss Laura Green? Why did you do that?” The detective , Mr Murphy asked.
Alicia and Mr Lynn watched her from the glas-sed area.
“Why isn’t she in school sir? Also, She isn’t supposed to be here” A cop said to Mr Lynn looking at Alicia.
“It’s preferable to mind your business sir. That girl bites! She refused to go to school though, She’s really smart and curious too. She wanted to see the culprit. That’s all” Mr Lynn laughed. The cop shaked his head as he turned to look at Laura who was seated opposite the detective.
Laura was busy b!tt!g her long f!nger nails. Her manicure was a little bit faded.
“Excuse me, I’m talking to you” Mr Murphy snapped. Laura looked at him and sighed.
“I heard you, Mister” She retorted and quic-kly returned to her nails.
“You’re Laura Greens huh? Your parents are very rich.. and well known. They both own one of the best Bank in Seoul and you are also a wealthy and successful Model. You have worked for different br@nds and made lots of sales. You are also one of the expensive and most wanted models in Seoul. You know, I was once your fan—He paused after the laughter coming from the other officers interrupted him. Laura shone her eyes wi-de at him.
“I first saw you modeling for one of the most expensive b©dy cream…You were so beautiful and damn! Stunning too..,Aren’t you also the girlfriend of one celebrity like that? I wonder what happened to you?,I mean take a good look at yourself! You bec@mÂŁ sad and depressed. You made your environment suffer from it by ma-king your home stinky and horrible.I noticed that. You really changed,Do you wanna know why?” Mr Murphy asked staring at Laura who stared back with her wi-de eyes.
“You changed because you felt bad and guilty for almost killing a man” He completed.
Suddenly, Like a witch would do, Laura shone her teeth and gave a sarcastic laugh. Mr Murphy looked at her and his smart facial expression gradually started vanishing. He felt weird and embarras-sed. An emotionless expression landed on his face.
“What? Do you think this is funny? He asked almost yelling.
“Sir, You are so funny. Aissh! Who made you a detective here?You ought to become a clown! What a joke!. Mister, You are really the worst. Sincerely speaking” Laura whispered dying down her harsh laughter.
Murphy inhaled a de-ep breath and looked at her angrily.
“Let’s get to business” He said now opening some paper work before him. Laura relaxed on the chair and began looking at the hand cuffs on her wrist.
“You like them, huh? You should model for those handcuffs… I’m sure the sales is gonna be high” He mocked. The officers heard this and laughed as usual.
“Yeah. Mister, I guess you are right… Actually, Do you wanna know the first customer?” Laura smiled. Murphy looked at her with full concentration.
“You… Ahjussi(Mister)” She replied sharply with a wicked smile.
“Hey! St©p calling me ahjussi(Mister)!!!” Murphy yelled standing up on his feet. He bit hisl-ips angrily. He was fed up alre-ady.
“Who the hell is this lady? Is she even remorseful or what? She even gladly accepts she’s guilty?! Just take a look at her evil face! Aiish! So annoying!” Murphy yelled pointing at her.
Laura scoffed and rolled her eyes.
“Mister, Are you done? My as* has been sitting on this metal chair for so long. It starting to hurt sofu-cking bad, I hate this sh*t…Can I go back in. I’m tired, you Motherfu-cker” She said
“What?!!!” Murphy yelled angrily
“Sweetie, Close your ears. You shouldn’t be hearing those rou-gh vulgar words” Mr Lynn said trying to cover Alicia’s ears. Alicia looked on with her eyes wi-de opened which refused to blink. She stood and watched like a statue.
“You know what! I’m done!! We are gonna do this later. Our investigation is gonna hold on Saturday! Darn it, She’s a rude animal!” Murphy yelled stomping his feet angrily. He left immediately with a furious look.
“She isn’t rude, She’s just savage” Alicia giggled.
“Hey! Don’t even say that. Just take a look at her face! She’s so relaxed like she didn’t even do anything bad” Mr Lynn said shaking his head.
Laura turned her head towards them(Mr Lynn and Alicia). Suddenly, She brou-ght out a smile which went on the corners of herl-ips.
“Who does she think she’s smiling at? Her smile looks creepy and crazy! Hey, Alicia… Close your eyes!,I don’t want you to see her evil smile” Mr Lynn exclaimed now trying to place his hand on her eyes.
“Dad.. I think I like it” Alicia whispered to his hearing.
“What? Like What?” Mr Lynn asked curiously staring at her. Alicia looked at her father and smiled like how Laura did. It gave Mr Lynn little shivers.
“Her smile” Alicia replied slowly ma-king her smile more broader. Mr Lynn looked at her nervously and confused. He blinked his eyes staring at the creepy smile formed on his daughter’s face.

Alexa was done with work. It was 2pm alre-ady. She was happy the Skyy Boys Band didn’t go anywhere. They had enough time for that day. Their schedule wasn’t ti-ght unlike other days.
After she was done, They began to eat. The food was ordered from a restaurant. The Lynn’s Restaurant!.
“Your mum is a good cook” Eric complimented giving her a cute smile.
“Huh, Yeah. Thank you” Alexa replied coldly without looking at him. Eric sighed sadly. He was’nt himself anymore since he had mistakenly hurt Alexa. He noticed she wasn’t giving him the attention he was receiving before.
“The rice is finished!” Ken commented loudly
“There’s still enough stew though” Alexa retorted showing them the plate with enough stew and lots of beef.
“Alex. Huh, I prepared rice yesterday evening…Can you just warm it up, Let’s eat it after it becomes h0t” Eric said.
“Okay. Where’s it?” She asked standing up.
“In the brown ceramic pot” He replied. Alexa nodded and left them. Eric decided to have a word with her. He decided to follow her to the kitchen. He lifted his right leg almost and was about standing up when Ethan suddenly stood up with a swift.
“Huh? Guys.. I’m gonna show Alex where the ceramic pot is. I kept it somewhere else” Ethan said to them both. Ken nodded. Eric sighed and sat down back properly keeping his right leg back to the usual sp©t. Ethan smiled and walked into the kitchen.
Ethan’s eyes caught Alexa who was trying to get her hand on the pot which was on the high kitchen shelf. Her hand couldn’t get there though she kept trying.
Suddenly, Ethan went behind her and took his hands to where it was. Alexa noticed this and looked in front immediately. She was shocked when her eyes met Ethan. She bec@mÂŁ so nervous and her heart started racing like a race car. She swallowed ha-rd and looked at Ethan who looked into her eyes.
“Hey, Alex” He whispered
“What?” She whispered back now turning her gaze to the kitchen tiled floor.
“About the thing we were supposed to talk about… You didn’t bother to remind me again” He whispered again.
“Oh.. Sorry”
“It about what happened the last night we met” He said. Alexa wi-de-ned her eyes shocked. Her heart fluttered and couldn’t st©p beating fas-ter. It also bec@mÂŁ loud.
“Wh–What hap–happen–ed?” She stammered holding her jeans side with her trembling f!ngers.
Suddenly, Ethan took two steps closer to her which made made Alexa more nervous and anxious.
“Actually… Huh, Alex–
“What? Out with it alre-ady” She said almost in a loud voice. Her voice was quite shaky.
“Uhmm…–He paused and swallowed ha-rd with his eyes now twitching.
I don’t uhh, actually remember what happened last night,, Can you perhaps remind me?” His voice and statement “shaked Alexa” who quic-kly glared at him instantly without feeling nervous any longer.
