I stood there staring at the picture. After a
while, I remembered I have to be with Mr handsome,i looked back and started
searching for him looking around the place. I
saw him standing among those people,
holding a camera in his hand. I walked
slowly towards him smiling.
I stood beside him as he walks around from
one place to another. "Is this where you
work? Wow it's so pretty and cool here."I
said looking around.
:
Few minutes later, the photo shoot started.
The lady looks so beautiful as she did
different poses in different fashion of
dresses and shoes. I was standing beside Mr
handsome looking at him as he was taking
the pictures. By looking at his face, I could
tell he like her by the way he smiles while
taking the pictures. "I can see you had a
crush on her. It's OK you're also a man you
can fall for her. You can't hide that"i said
looking at him. He looked at me then
concentrated back on the camera. Wow. He
could hear that of all what I've been saying
to him since. I thought to myself folding my
arms together.
"Well. She's so pretty. Am so jealous of her"I
said nodding my head.
"Good thing you're not blind"he said under
his breath thinking I won't hear him.
After the the photo shoots, he went to sit
down on a chair. And I followed him standing
beside the table. A girl brought a bottle
water and a towel. He received the bottle
from her and opened the top. "You did a
great job."she said smiling. "Oh thanks. You
guys should rest also. I have to meet
someone by 12pm so, I won't be around
then. You guys should finish the rest OK?"he
said standing up from the chair. "Yes sir"the
lady replied.
He went to the other young guy and
whispered something in his ear. He nodded
his head in agreement saying OK.
Mr handsome left the studio walking down
the passage. I followed him gently without
his knowledge. When he got to the
compound, before he could get to his car, he
pressed a remote to unlock it. He opened
the door and sat down pulling out the seat
belt. He stopped and was looking around. He
peeped through the window then looked
behind him. I can tell he was looking for me.
I was at a corner looking at him as he does
all this. When he couldn't find me, he took a
deep breath wiping his face with his palm.
I smiled to myself looking at him. "Don't be
relieved. Am not gone yet" I said smiling.
When he fastened the seat belt, and was about
driving, I disappeared from where I was
hiding and reappeared beside him. He
quickly stepped on the break looking at me
in shock. "Ooh. You really scared me"he said
looking at me.
"Were you looking for me? Why? Do you
miss me?"I asked looking at him. "What? Stop
popping out like that scaring people around
with your ugly face OK"he said. "You don't
have to be scared. It's not you first time
seeing me. Are you really scared of ghosts?"I
asked looking at him. "What's she saying?
Am not scared of them. I just don't like
seeing ugly ghosts popping our of nowhere.
They'll look like a demon to me."he said as
he drives the car slowly out of the
compound. "Really? So you're not scared of
me?"I asked. "Am not. I can't be scared of
you. You don't even look scary"he replied.
"That means am not an ugly ghost then?
Since you're not scared of me. Am a sexy
ghost not an ugly one"I said smiling. On
hearing that, he started laughing out loud. I
wonder what he's laughing about. I didn't say
anything funny. "What's she saying?. Sexy
ghosts?"he repeated and continue laughing.
He almost bump into a car but quickly turn
the staring to avoid it. "You have to be
careful if you don't want to end up with other
ugly ghosts"I said looking at him. "So you
mean there are sexy ghosts? That's so funny.
I have never heard of that before. You're not
even a pretty ghost"he said still smiling. I
feel good to see him smile. He looks so cool
and calm.

John's POV
As I was still talking and laughing at what the
ghost Girl just said, a call came in and I took
it. My expression changed immediately I saw
the caller. It was my dad. I first hesitated to
pick it but I took the call and placed the
phone to my ear. He said he wants us to
meet me at his office right now because he
wants to have a meeting with everyone. I
dropped the phone beside me after the call.
I hate sitting down and talking with him. I
don't like him and I don't feel happy anytime
we're together. But since it's a family
meeting, I have to show up. I was not the his
first child. I have step brothers and I have
sisters also. He got married to three wives.
Nathan was his first son. He's two years
older than me. While am three years older
than Mary Nathan's younger sister. And Julie was
the youngest wife's daughter. She's just 16
this year. Nathan's mother was the first wife
he married. She made life like hell for me
and my mother when I was still young. She's
so scary and wicked.
Even when father married the youngest wife,
she hired gang to beat her up and destroy
the pregnancy she's having. She was rescued
before they could do anything worst to her.
Even though my dad knows she was the one
who did it. He never confronted her or make
any case on it. She's so scary than demons or
ghosts. I blamed my mum for getting
married to my dad. But what can I do about
it? It's done already. Am one of Williams
family. I don't like engaging myself with
family issues or about his companies. I like
living a simple life and free from their
problems. He has the biggest company in the
state. He has so many companies and
houses. But I disguise myself from Williams
family. No one knows am Williams in my
company. Even when I was still in school, no
one knows am James Williams son.
I hid my identity from people. Unlike my
other brother Nathan. He boast about it and
spend money like sh*t when he was in school.
We're not close at all. We hate each other
ever since we were kids. We never act like
real brothers even though we still have the
same father. Mary was the only one who
was close to me. She likes me and love
hanging around me everything in school. She
once told me she wished we were not
siblings. She would have love to have me as
her boyfriend. I took that as a joke the day
she said that.
*Back to the car*
I frowned my face on hearing he's having a
meeting with us. I have to go just to avoid his
nagging. I made a U turn and went back
heading to the company.
When I got there, I packed my car at the
garage then got down and walked towards
the door. I entered the big company and
make my way towards his office. "Why are
you not looking good? Are you angry at
something?"the ghost girl asked following
me behind. I ignored her heading to the
elevator. When I got to the elevator, I
pressed the button and it opened. Who I saw
there left me with shock and surprise. But I
hid it not letting it show on my face. He
smiled nodding his head at me. But I kept on
the straight face looking at him. "Long time
no see"he said putting on a fake smile. We
both were staring at each other awkwardly
while I still stood at the entrance blocking
the elevator from closing.
