TRUTH AND LIES
(Who is Jeremy?)
GRAND FINALE. #Season_2.
Episode 5
Writer: Faith Lucky.
SAMANTHA’S POV
I stood by the window with a glass of wine in my room while my friends sat on the bed behind me.
‘But, seriously, Samantha, I think that Alyssa’s going to be a great competition for you; Lily said, and it increased my anger.
‘Like, did you take a look at her drawing? Hers was one of the best. And consider the fact that she’s Mico’s girlfriend, it’s really going to earn her a lot of favor.
I halted and turned around, throwing the glass of wine on the floor.
‘First, I had to deal with Alexia’, Samantha said angrily.
‘And now, the brat, Alyssa has to show up.
‘I think it’s high time I put her in her place. I need to get her out of the contest.’
ALYSSA’S POV
He had driven for quite a long time and a song was even playing from the car.
I remained in my position and wondered when he was going to get home.
So many thoughts kept flashing through my mind.
What would his background look like? Am I really ready to find out the truth?
What if I get caught?
I was still drowning in thoughts when suddenly, the car stopped and the music stopped playing as well.
Oh my God!
Are we there already?
I used my head and peeped through the window.
The area was bushy and kind of deserted.
What?
Why did he stop?
I heard him open the car door and came out and I quickly resumed my upward lying position.
I heard his footsteps drawing closer and my heartbeat increased.
Where is he going?
Don’t tell me he’s coming towards my direction.
No, no, no. that’s not possible.
I shut my eyes tight as his footsteps became clearer and it was obvious he had gotten to the boot where I was.
Oh God!
Then next, I opened my eyes and a bright light almost blinded me and that was when I realized he had opened the boot.
Oh Alyssa!
What have you done?
You’re dead.
He pulled me roughly out of the boot and held me by the arm.
What?
‘Just what do you think you’re doing, Alyssa?’ he asked angrily still holding me and I looked at him with fear.
‘Are you seriously trying to spy on me?
I opened my mouth and tried saying something, but couldn’t.
But how did he actually know I was following him?
‘No, I had run out of words.’
‘I’m sorry I…i…was…” i stuttered in a frail tone and bent my head and he scoffed,
‘you’re sorry?’ he asked, and it was obvious he was angry.
Then he released my hand and took another step away, brushing his fingers into his hair.
Oh God.
I looked around and the area was really deserted. I couldn’t even find anyone driving by.
How do I get out of here?
‘Didn’t you realize you were taking a risk by trying to follow me?’ he asked with a stare and I gulped down nothing.
I really hoped this ends up being a dream.
‘I’m…I’m sorry, Jeremy. Please, forgive me,’ I said pathetically, staring at the floor.
Then, I heard him scoff and he went to the car and leaned on it.
He covered his face with his palm as though he was thinking about something and I prayed he wasn’t up to anything.
