  • Let go of me! argh! Chloe butt hit the bed hard , she didn't understand where she went wrong she attended the wedding as promised.
  • " I attended the wedding as you required, what do you want from me ! what ?
  • " Are you pretending to be innocent, huh? or you like to be forced?
  • " I told you clearly, this is your debt , I will let you pay one by one " He pointed out nonchalantly
  • Chloe's eyes closed in despair and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably " Sorry Rose I didn't know it would turn out like this".
  • -------------
  • Two Months Ago
  • Chloe was in her bedroom, her face twitching in pain. She couldn't sleep because of a stomach ache. She can't shoot the Ad in this situation,she phoned her best friend and she picked on the second ring.
  • " Hello best, how are you feeling?" Rose's voice rang out through the phone.
  • " Rose, it's getting worse, can you do me a favor"
  • " Anything for you best"
  • " Rose , it's about the AD I am supposed to shoot in Spain tomorrow, I can't go there like this, will you go for me best" Chloe pleaded and pouted her mouth.
  • " Best, you know the climate situation in Spain , by this time of the year, " Rose reasoned out.
  • " I know best , just go. It's also the best season to go to Spain. I always go there, and also director Shaw couldn't find someone else, and it's a rare chance ! Please go for me !
  • "Well, you know I can't say no to that face of yours, but it's on one condition"
  • " Anything Rose , just name it"
  • " Promise me you will see a doctor after this call ", She warned.
  • " I will Rose, I've called Daisy , she's on her way here, now pack your luggage or else you will miss the flight ", Chloe said happily.
  • Chloe ended the call and heaved a sigh of relief " what will I do without you bestie, I love you loads"
  • . After a few hours' nap, Chloe went downstairs to her living room to watch the television after grabbing some cookies from the kitchen.
  • But the news that was broadcasting live caught her attention.
  • " At 4:50pm , Sept 3rd a plane that left country to Spain crashed, with 200 passengers on board , 8 people have been rescued but the heavy fire makes it difficult to continue the search. "
  • Bam!
  • The plate of cookies she held fell to the floor and shattered, " That's Rose's flight , right?" She asked no one in particular and got no response in return, Chloe tugged her hair and cried uncontrollably sprawled out on the fluffy carpet in her sitting room. The vibration from her phone got her distracted from her cries for a minute, she stretched her hand and picked up the phone, " Chloe, are you okay ! where are you?, I heard what happened to Rose " Daisy's voice rang out from the phone. " I -i-am-no-t okay , Daisy, I-am- not " Chloe said in between sobs .
  • " I know Chloe, believe me I understand how you feel. stay put and wait for me alright, I will be there in an hour time "
  • " Hum" Chloe nodded in response. Chloe, Rose and Daisy are three college best friends, after graduation Daisy secured a job in one of the country's best companies as their Financial Manager hence making it difficult for her to link up with the girls as usual, while Rose and Chloe ventured into acting making them the best of friends among the three. Chloe cried again remembering their days as college students as memories of their lives flashed like scenes in her eyes, she cried and cried till she dozed off.
  • The sound of her door bell woke her up from her slumber, she dragged her feet to the door and unlocked for Daisy's face came into view and reminded her of the day's incident, she sobbed again this time around she sobbed again, leaned on Daisy staining her jacket with her tears, Daisy who didn't mind hugged her back, and caressing her hair loving " it okay dear, cry all you want dear ,am here for you " she said soothingly to her. Hearing Daisy, Chloe took it as her cue and wept harder this time letting it all out on Daisy's shoulder.
