?INTERMISSION?
?´???`?
Ashley, Arthur and Frederick stood before the security at the casino main door.
“Your ID please.” Arthur brought his ID out and handed it to him. He examined it then gave it back to him.
“Can I have you own please.” He stretched out. Ashley dipped her hand into her pocket and handed her school ID.
“Sure.” He examined Ashley and Frederick’s before returning ’em back.
“Welcome.” He paved way for them as they made their way in the Casino.
Different colorful lights flashed on them as they headed toward the VIP lounge.
“This place is really dangerous, over there Arthur… Did you see that.” Ashley pointed out at a group of men playing cards.
“Is that what we are here for?” Arthur asked plainly.
She scoffed. “I wonder how she fell in love with the grumpiest man in the world.” She mumbled underneath. Frederick heard her as he burst into delighted laughter.
“What’s funny?” Arthur lifted a brow.
“So I think I’ll go for a game card for two or four players. What do you think Fred?” Ashley ignored Arthur and focused her gaze on Fred who found it hard to control his laughter.
“Seriously?” Arthur scoffed irritatedly.
“So I think we should head on now Fred. Mr Arthur are you coming along or not?” She blinked several waiting for him to speak up.
“I promised Anel that I’m gonna watch over you guys so I’m doing it because of her…
“Who cares anyway, it’s not too late to leave.” Ashley uttered sternly.
“Ashley.” Fredrick called out while she shoved it off.
“Stop acting cold it only makes you a monster.” Ashley said and walked away.
“I’m sorry about that sir.” Fredrick was trying to hold his laughter. They followed Ashley who has bought the VIP game tickets.
“Ma’am you have to start from room 50 till you rest the upper room which is 500 room only if you make it up there.” The receptionist divulged with a smirked plastered on her face.
“Can’t I just start with your goddamn boss right now?”
“What?”
“Move aside.” Arthur pushed her out of the way and made a contact with the receptionist.
“What was that for Minister.” She gnawed on her lower lip.
“Don’t be rude Ashley.” Frederick whispered in her ear.
“Let me teach this grumpy man how to live, he’s always cold towards my sister and there’s only a way to stop it. Anel loves him but he doesn’t care about her feelings always giving her a cold side and you what am gonna do?” Ashley whispered back.
“Ashy.”
“I’m gonna treat his fuck up just watch, next time he would never mess with my family or treats her like she’s nothing.”
“Are you serious?”
“Dead serious. ERM.” She cleared her throat. Arthur has already bought the tickets for three.
“Here you can have it, at least one of us is gonna make it to the last floor so let’s go.”
“I’m very sure you’d be the first to lose on the way.” Ashley said and walked away.
“I’m sorry about that.” Frederick apologized mockingly.
“Idi©t.” He hissed before walked away too.

Arthur sat around the table waiting for the game to get started. They both walked in the same room but different tables.
A lady planted the cards on the table and spread it. The other participant was the first to pick his cards while Arthur did the same thing.
A smile appeared on the man face while he lifted his gaze, staring at Arthur. He planted his cards in the middle of the table and Arthur did the same thing.
“Wow! Arthur has the highest mark so you lose sir.” The lady announced.
Ashley’s table ?
She stared at the cards she was holding intensively. She knew she didn’t have a good point while the man has 10, 5, 7 while hers was just 4,7 and 3.
Mere looking at her the man knew Ashley has lose to him. He planted his cards on the table and Ashley did the same.
“He has the highest mark of 22 while Ms Ashley has 14 marks.” The lady announced.
“Oops.” Ashley pounted out and smiled.
“Is not too late to leave young lady, I’m gonna win anyway while you’re going to cry.”
“You think so?”
“You mummy would be there to comfort you right?”
“I should be asking you that idiot. We still have a long way to go.”
“There is not way you’re winning if I win again.”
“Whatever.” The lady planted the cards on the table and spread it.
He picked his up while Ashley did the same. She didn’t get a real score this time too. 6,1,6… She used the opportunity to read the man’s mind. 8,7 and 6.
She gasped and quickly used her power to switch the cards without anyone knowing.
The man dropped his and Ashley dropped her.
“8,7 and 6 equivalent to 21 scores. Ashley’s, 9,8, and 9 equivalent to 26 scores. Ashley won.”
“What the fk?” He seethed.
“Calm down man, you can still make it dear.” She winked at him.
The last round made the man impatient, after picked three cards he didn’t get a real score so he exchanged the cards never knew that Ashley saw the whole thing.
Ashley ? 9,9 and 8
The man? 8, 5 and 7
“Sorry you lose. So woman get me the tickets to the next floor.” Ashley said and stood up. The man jaw was dropped in awe as she stared at the 19 years old lady that made him go insane.
Fredrick’s table ?
The man rolled the table while he got 600 coins. Fredrick used one finger to roll the table as the arrow hit 2000 coins.
“Wow! What a great coins Fred.” The man scoffed.
The man rolled the table again and the arrow hit 1000 coins. He smiled and winked at Fred asking him to show him what he gets.
He used a finger to roll the table again. The arrow stopped right on 400 coins, everyone burst into delighted laughter but the table moved again leisurely until it fell on 4000 coins.
“What?” They widened in shock. Fredrick smiled because he has used his power to control the table.
He tagged his tongue out to mock the man.
“Here is the next floor ticket. Good luck.”
“Wow! We did it Fredrick.” They did their high five and laughed out loud.
There were able to make it to the 400 floor but Arthur couldn’t get the ticket to the last floor because he lose.
Despite, Ashley didn’t know how to play, she cheated through out the game while Fredrick cheated and also won by luck.
“You stay here and watch out for Kennedy, she might show up anytime.” Ashley said before fred and her took the elevator to the last floor.
They bought a new tickets and registered with the money they’ve got from the gamble.
“If you’re able to win the last floor you’d get the chance to play with Mr pedro.” A lady said after giving them the tickets.
“Okay thanks.” Fredrick said as they stepped in the elevator. It slides opened as they walked out and made their way into the private room. It’s more dangerous than you could ever think. Everyone in the room was armed, some were with short knives or guns.
“What is this beautiful chick doing here?” A man asked with a se.ductive smirk.
“She must be an expert.”
“Well not in here, the floor belong to us alone.”
“In your dream. You know what? Let’s start the game already, I can’t wait to watch you crying your eyes out begging for mercy.” Ashley said as she hit the table which caught everyone’s attentions.
“What the h.ell is she doing here?” A fat man said. “I’m going first, i’ll be the one to send you back and you know what it means? You have to start from the first floor. You might have been winning but luck it doesn’t work here.” Ashley loosened her hair but not the braid.
“Let make a bet lady.” The fat man said.
“Sure I’m in for anything.” She winked.
“If I win I’m gonna have you tonight while you’ll still remain in this floor but if you don’t want to have to start from the beginning.”
“But if I win?
“It would never happen.” The fat man snapped.
“You wish but I never hoped because I know it’ll surely happen. So if I win you’ll find a way to convince you boss to play with me, Mr Pedro.”
“Deal…”
“You have my words.”
Ashley unlocked her phone and sent a text message to Fredrick.
? you must lose to the last man okay?
? sure, I got it. Good luck and make sure not to give them hard blow ??
She dipped the phone into the sweatpants she was wearing.
“Shall we?”
“Sure.”
“Wait fatty let me have her first.” A man bumped out of no where. He sat around the table and Ashley also did.
After playing cheating, Ashley won everyone was surprised while the man got really mad as he stormed out of the room angrily,he has to start over again.
Many played with her but they kept losing to her. The fat man sat down since he was the last man in the room.
“I can’t wait to hear you spelling my Name, begging me to stop.” He tapped on the table.
“I can’t wait to see how violence you’d be once you lose.” After playing for hours the man never get the chance to win Ashley as he kept losong to her.
“What the h.eck.” He hit the table furiously and started destroying everything in the room. Ashley sat down without moving looking at him quietly.
“Your promise minister.” Ashley reminded him. He calm down and faced at at once.
“Who are you?”
“Your godmother.” She winked with a smirk of mischief.
He walked into a room after few minutes he stepped out and asked ashley to follow him.
Stepping into the room Ashley met Neddy sitting beside Pedro as their eyes made a contact…
