Dancer?
(She’s too Perfect)
Episode 15
By: Faith Lucky.
Maxine’s Pov:
My was dropped immediately. What?
I looked at the paper in my hand and couldn’t believe it. Who was she?
And what does she mean by my parents were murdered and she knows what happened to them?
Oh my God!
The man beside me kept staring keenly at me but I couldn’t care less. It was beyond shocking.
Could she be telling the truth?
“Who’s stopping before the bank?” The driver’s voice broke into my thoughts and I looked to see I had gotten to my destination.
“It’s…it’s me” I cleared my throat and replied and he stopped the car.
I paid him before coming out of the car with my bag, making sure the paper was still with me.
I gave the paper one final stare before slipping it into my bag.
Was I going to do this? She asked me not to trust anyone. Could she be someone I could rely on?
I took in a deep nervous breath and went into Pablo’s bar. I was so scared and nervous.
My hands were all sweaty as I walked in and met the workers all busy as bees. But Pablo was not at the counter where I always met him. He wasn’t there.
I swallowed hard and met one of the waitresses.
“Hi. Good morning” I called her attention and she turned to look at me.
“Oh! Good morning, miss.” She replied.
“Um…I’m looking for Pablo. Is he around?”
“Pablo? I’m sorry, but you’re a bit late. He just left”.
Oh my God!
“Huh? Where did he go?”
“I’m not sure. But I think he was going to get some supplies”.
I sighed despondently and itched my head. Why does this have to happen? Why today of all days? Where did Pablo go?
“Alright. Thank you”, I muttered and left the bar.
I stood by the roadside for a long time, lost in thoughts. I didn’t even know what exactly to think.
But, I think right now, Rex was the most important. I had to think of his proposal.
What if he’s already awaiting me in school because it was 24 hours already? Definitely, I can’t give my body to him. So, does it mean the only option I had left was becoming his maid?
Oh my God!!
But…my family.
How does he intend taking care of them?
But…..Noah;
I’ll become close to him.
For a moment, I paused and thought. On one hand, I saw it as a good idea; becoming close to Noah.
But, on the other hand, I was scared. I don’t know; I just felt scared.
I took in a deep breath and boarded a cab and after a long ride, we got to the school area where I came off.
I settled the cabby and started sullenly towards the school building. I sure looked like a ghost cause thousands of thoughts kept crowding my mind.
My family;
The strange lady;
The competition
Rex…
So many things!
And I felt so confused.
I was so fixated that I didn’t realize when I bumped into someone. My books came crashing on the floor.
“Oh my God!” I exclaimed.
“I’m so sorry”, I apologized and reached for my books without sparing a glance at whoever I had bumped into.
I succeeded in packing up the books and that was when I decided to look at him.
Oh my God!!
“S…sir?” I stuttered
He was the same person that had taken me to Rex the previous day. It was him!
Oh God!
“Hey, miss”, he smiled.
“Trust you’re having a great morning?”
I looked around and gulped nervously. It was definitely Rex. What do I say to him?
“Well, I don’t have much time and would very much want us to go straight to the point. Mr Rex sent me to get your reply. So, what’s your take? Are you having s*x with him? Or working as his maid? Or…you’d prefer he sends the video to your family?” He asked icily and I froze.
I stood speechlessly, not knowing what to say.
Oh my God! I wish I had someone to run to.
“Maxine..” He broke into my thoughts.
“I’ll do it” I finally spoke out.
“I’ll…I’ll be his maid”.
He smiled and looked at his watch.
“Alright then. I’ll convey your message. Thanks for your time” he stated and left, leaving me in total confusion.
What is happening to me?

Rex’s Pov:
I stood in front of the mirror, trying to button my shirt when my phone awakened with a mighty ring.
I checked and…oh! Just the right person.
?Yes?
I said curiously on the phone.
?Rex – she’s agreed to the deal. She’s ready to be your maid”
He said and I threw a blow in the air.
?Yes!”
I exclaimed and laughed
?Good job. I guess you know the next step – getting her family to agree. You know what to do”. I told him.
?Yes, yes, of course. Bye”.
And the call ended.
Hm.
Finally, I was one step to getting my revenge.
Oh! That veiled lady – crazy dancer – I really needed to find her. She was more important.
Well, I guess its one thing at a time. And now, I just accomplished my first mission.

Charlene’s Pov:
I zipped up my black leather shirt and brushed my hair before checking the time.
It was almost 3 p.m.
Perfect!
Time for my meeting.
I added a little lip gloss to my lips and gave myself one sweet stare in front of the mirror.
I may be heartless and all, but not to the extent of watching someone suffer in her own wealth.
Maxine should be living the life of a princess – not the other way round. I can’t sit back and watch someone btches turn her into a slave after killing her own parents.
Today, I’m going to expose them. I’ll tell Maxine the truth and help her get her revenge.
Yes, she deserves it.
I exhaled deeply and took my bag, ready to go.
I got to the door and opened it and my bag dropped my hand as I beheld the frightening sight.
He was standing there – leaning on the wall beside the door as if awaiting me to step out.
Oh my God!
No; this is not happening.
Don’t tell me he found me.
“Marcus?” I called in shock and he smiled.
