CHAPTER 57&58
★ ★ ★ ★
“You’ve been released. Good luck”A cop said, unlocking Cindy’s handcuffs.
“What did I tell y’all! I said it ain’t me but y’all wouldn’t listen. Look at this innocent and cute face. Do you think it can even stare at cigarette smoke” Cindy said.
“Just go and don’t cause trouble” The cops told her.
“Hmphh!!” She fumed and walked out, after collecting her phones and changing.
“Come to the hideout” She read out, in the group chat.
She smiled, and finally left the scene.

“Dad…I’m really sorry. Please, just get me out of here. I and Mimi are always mocked and bullied by our cell mates” Gina sniffed. written by sommy pearl f.
Mr Woods sighed.
“Its even better than out there. You don’t know how I get treated cause I’m a father to some girl who confessed that she got her fellow doctor into trouble”
“I didn’t really mean it. It was a slight jealousy. I never knew it would turn around this way” Gina shook her head.
“Thats your problem. But see what you got yourself into. Who would have ever known you were the one who made Cindy that way”
Gina sniffed.
“Dad,,, please…”
“Alright. I’ll see what I can do. You would probably be fined or be on probation” He said.
Gina nodded.
“As far it away from here,,, then I’m good”
“Your time is over” The warden walked forward.
“Well, I think I should leave now” He dusted his suit.
Gina sobbed, and slowly stood up. She didn’t want to part ways yet. She didn’t want to go into that cell where her wicked mates were.
“By the way,,,” Her father started.
“Hmm?” She asked.
“Why did you have to show a sanitary pad while you were filming live. It was so unnecessary and stupid”
She sighed.
“You won’t un-derstand”
“Well, Its trending now. hastag, Gina Woods confesses bad deeds and advertises Diva’s sanitary pad at the same time”
“Goodness” She muttered, embarras-sedly.
“I and your mother are facing ridicule and humiliation. They keep mocking us because of that”
“I’m sorry, Dad”
“Its fine. Bye” He waved.
Gina’s face saddened as she was led away.
MAFIA’S HIDEOUT**
“Guys? Guys?? Anyone here?? Huh? Guyssss? Are you th-
“Congratulations!!!” They all shouted and came out from where they all hiding.
They threw glitters all over and blew trumpet.
“What’s this? Its so childish” She chuckled.
“Congratulations on getting out” Ken smiled.
“Thank you and its all thanks to your ability and ha-rdwork. I appreciate” She smiled.
“I gat ya back” He winked.
“I’m glad you’re back” Kev said.
“Thank you, Kev” She replied.
“Welcome back, Cindy! We missed you” Oliver smiled.
“I miss you more” She replied.
There was quietness. Everyone exchanged confused and surprised glances.
“Gosh!” She slapped her mouth, quickly.
“Sorry. I meant,, I miss you ‘guys’ more” She chuckled, nervously.
“Its fine. Its not bad to emphasize on who you miss more” Rhoda chuckled.
“No… I just rushed my statement. It was a…mistake” She pouted.
She looked at Oliver who was smiling at her. Kev was just watching, quite moody. written by sommy pearl f.
“By the way,, where’s Malcolm and Ariana?? They aren’t here??” Cindy looked around.
“Its true” Oliver muttered.
“Weren’t they hiding too?” Rhoda asked.
“Maybe, they never came out” Oliver said.
“Why?” Rhoda frowned.
Oliver just shrugged his shoulders.
“Where did Malcolm hide?” Rhoda asked.
“The small old storage room” Ken answered.
Rhoda advanced to the storage room.
“What about Ariana? Where did she hide?” Cindy asked.
“I think its the same place,,, where Malcolm was hiding” Ken replied.
Rhoda came to a sudden halt when she heard it. She blinked her eyes, and bit her lower li-p before Ieaving.
MEANWHILE, IN THE SMALL Sto-re ROOM**
“What’s going on??” Ariana whispered.
“I don’t really know…the door can’t open” He shook his head, and faced her.
The sto-re room was so tiny that they had to face each other.
Ariana back was on the wall, and Malcolm arms were above her head, on the wall.
“Sorry,,, if this is uncomfortable” Malcolm whispered.
Ariana took her head up, faced him. and smiled, shyly.
“Its fine”
She took her head down, and her eyes had no choice but to come in contact with his broad body.
Malcolm smiled and looked at her head.
Suddenly, Ariana looked up at his face which took him by surprise.
His eyes blinked nervously, as he returned the stare.
“Look at you, staring back at me” He said, softly.
“I thought you use to be shy” He added.
“I’m still a little bit bashful but staring at your face is better than staring at your clothes”
He smi-rked at her, and she smiled gracefully which made his heart flutter.
Malcolm didn’t realize when he was moving slower to her li-ps. He bent his head a bit so that he would reach her li-ps.
Ariana eyes were opened widely. She slowly felt her eyes blinking fast, till it finally closed gently.
At just few inches apart, the door opened and they shivered, flying their eyes open hurriedly.
They faced the door to see Rhoda glaring at them.
She folded her arms on her che-st and raised a brow.
“What are you both doing here? The surprise ended few minutes ago”
Ariana left Malcolm in the room and went out.
“The door wouldn’t open. Its not our fault” She said.
“Huh?? This door?? Who told you that?” Rhoda asked.
“Him…” Ariana pointed at Malcolm.
Rhoda sighed.
“You can go”
“Huh?” Ariana said.
“I said you can go. Leave,,, I wanna speak with Malcolm” Rhoda said.
“Oh…Okay” She nodded and scampered off.
Rhoda looked at Malcolm who scratched his head.
Rhoda smi-rked and walked closer to him. written by sommy pearl f.
“What are you up to, Malcolm?” She asked.
“I don’t un-derstand” He replied, looking back at her.
“I mean…since when…since when has the door started getting faulty. Cause from what I remember, this door works pretty well”
Malcolm rolled his eyes, and came out.
“Can you just forget about it?? Let’s not argue, please”
Rhoda took her eyes to him.
“Do you like her?? Ariana? Do you like her!” She shouted.
“Fu-ck! Rhoda!! You don’t have to yell!!”
“I’ll Fu-cking yell!! I never planned it like this, never! How could you like her?? How!! You aren’t suppose to like her!”
“Why not?”
“What? Why not?? Are you asking me that now?? Have you forgotten who she is?? She’s your killer!! She hates you!! She tried to kill you! Aren’t you the who promised to kill her soon?? Huh!!”
“Rhoda, enough!!”
“Think about what you are doing, Malcolm. Think about all of us here and the implications. I’ll pretend none of this happened” Rhoda slowly walked but stopped.
She turned back to him.
“And Malcolm,,, I’m still in love with you and I really hope you love me back. I…am just trying to protect you. thats all” Rhoda whispered and left.
Malcolm sighed de-eply, and scratched his head.
“What’s wrong with me, seriously” He muttered.

“Cindy!” Ariana gushed and hu-gged her.
“I’m glad you’re back hale and healthy” She added, breaking the hu-g.
“Thank you, Ariana” Cindy smiled, looking at her.
“Cindy??” Rhoda called, coming into view.
Cindy looked at her.
“Take Ariana to the hospital and check how her Br@in is faring” Rhoda said, seriously.
R-BREEDS HOSPITAL**
?Doctor Cindy!!
?Is she back??
?I would be glad if she returns back to this hospital
?I’ve missd her
?Gina and her friend are nuts for what she did to Cindy.
Many people, both the staffs and patients commented as they watched Cindy walked throu-ghthe hospital pas-sage way.
Ariana linked her arm with Cindy, as they walked together.
“Cindy Keepers?” A familiar voice sounded and they both halted.
They turned around and met with Mr Wood, who was smiling at them, with his both hands in his big lab coat.
“To what do I owe this visit?” He asked, coming closer to them.
“I came to see the doctor. I want my friend here to get a Br@in scan. Or, I’m not allowed to be here??” She asked.
“Oh no. I never said that” He shook his head.
“Good. I guess we will take our leave. Ariana, Let’s go”
“Cindy, please…wait” He said.
Cindy sighed and looked at him.
“What do you want now, sir?”
“Can I talk to you, please??”
“Why? We can talk about it here, right?”
“The office, please… Its private”
“Its fine. Go and talk to him. He’s quite old and can’t stand for so long. I’m gonna wait” Ariana smiled.
Cindy nodded.
“Just sit here and wait”
“Okay” Ariana nodded.
“I’ll hurry. So, don’t move an inch”
Ariana chuckled and nodded.
She sat down on the waiting bench and watched Cindy and Mr Woods leave.
A familiar person came into view. The person has been stalking and watching Ariana all this while.
As soon as Cindy and Mr Woods were out of sight, the person adjusted his face cap and walked with a limping leg to Ariana.
“Sorry,,, excuse me?” The person whispered.
Ariana slowly turned around.
“Yes. How may I help you?” She asked, with a small smile.
Dew looked at her and smiled back.

“So,,, all this long explanation is for me to come back??” Cindy asked, with ceased brows.
“Yes, please. I would be grateful if you come back. I’m sorry for the way I, my daughter and her friend treated you. Please. just come back to R- breeds. We nee-d you”
Cindy sighed.
“Alright then” She said, and stood up.
“Really??” He gushed, also standing up.
“Yeah” She nodded.
“Besides, everyone wants me back”
“Thank you for working with me again” He brou-ght his hand forward for a shake which she accepted.
“I’m glad to be back” She said. written by sommy pearl f.

“Ariana?? Ariana?? I’m back” Cindy looked around but she wasn’t there anymore.
“Where’s she now? I asked her not to go anywhere” She frowned, running around to find her.
She went outside and paused when she saw something familiar on the floor.
She bent down and took the phone on the floor.
“Isn’t this Ariana’s phone??”
She quickly stood up, and looked around.
“Where the h*ll are you, Ariana??” She said to no one in particular, bi-ting her lower li-p ha-rd.
“She should be around here since her phone was found here” She looked around, walking fast.
“Ariana! Ariana!!” She kept calling.
She sighed and quickly called Malcolm.
“Hello, Boss” She said.
“Yes?” He answered.
“Is Ariana- Cindy was cut short by a closure on her nostrils.
She inhaled something and fainted at a go. She was pulled into a closed area, between two cars, apparently.
“Cindy?? What’s it about Ariana??!” Malcolm asked, aloud.
Dew looked at the fallen phone and smiled, wickedly.
