∆∆ GODIVA’S MANSION
All the maids were in their quarters crying their eyes out.. The news also got to Vespertine’s school and his classmates, Mr. Harmsburg and some teachers came to console the family
Trisha hugged Vespertine tight as she cried…
That’ll be the first time she’ll be entering Godiva’s mansion. She was very sad that death was the only thing that made her enter Godiva’s home
Jerry was present too. He couldn’t believe Vespertine could cry like a baby right now..
The situation only reminded him of his late dad and he sniffed gently
The door wasn’t locked so anyone could come in at anytime.. Larina and her husband sat at a corner with doctor Mary
Lydia too has been crying non stop
The workers at diva’s collection all came in at once.. Gianna bowed to Larina then her husband, her eyes were very red now
They all stayed with the family untill it was 6pm and everyone started leaving.
” Stay strong okay?” Jerry patted vespertine’s shoulder while he nodded gently
” Thank you..” he replied
” Sorry for the lost Mrs Moreno.. I know it isn’t easy but I hope God gives you the strength to make it through this difficulty..” Mr Harmsburg said
” Thank you Mr hamburger..” Larina replied while the students around looked at her then the principal..
Most of them, bit their lips, trying to hold their laughter.. It was funny but they couldn’t laugh as they blinked their eyes
” Sorry for your lost ma’am..” The students also said their words of consolation to the Moreno before leaving the house with the principal but Trisha didn’t leave with them
It was now left the family and Trisha in the sitting room.. she walked to Larina and hugged her tight
” Mom.. ” She sniffed gently
” I don’t wanna go home, I want to stay with you tonight..” she said in tears while Larina stroke her hair gently
” You know your mom might get worried, you need to go home then come back tomorrow if you want..” Larina said disengaging from the hug.
” But….. she couldn’t complete her statement when her phone rang and the caller happens to be her mom
She sighed, then did a little bow
” I’ll be on my way now mom.. I promise to come over tomorrow..” she said and Larina nodded
” Bye dad.. comfort mom okay? Make sure she doesn’t cry too much okay?” She said while Alston nodded
She hugged him and he kissed her hair
” Regards to your mom.. ” he said and Trisha nodded before facing vespertine
” I’ll head home first, I’ll call you when I get home.. ” she told him and he smiled a little, walking out of the house with her
” You shouldn’t cry too much okay?” She hugged him tight while he just smiled cos he couldn’t promise her that
” Get home safely.. ” He kiss her hair
She stare at him again before leaving the mansion..
He was about going back into the house when he sighted Alora.. she ran towards his direction and her eyes went wide at how red his eyes were
” Vesper, it’s…true?” she asked in a shaky voice
Vespertine ignored her and helped her with her little bag while she rushed into the house
She met Larina on the floor
” Mom..” she called and Larina immediately looked up thinking it was Godiva but was disappointed..
Alora noticed the disappointment in her eyes and sigh sadly.. she walked to her and hugged her
” Mom.. ” she sob and this only made Larina cry more
They remained in that position for a while sobbing gently

” I thought she was an immortal… ” Michael laughed drinking from a glass of Brandy..
His boys were at his place, celebrating for a job Well done
” Can’t seriously believe she survived the attack in her mansion” one of the boys said
” She’ll probably be singing with the angels right now if at all she makes it to heaven” Takumi laughed and the rest joined in the laughter
” If Skye wasn’t careless, he would have been here with us..” Chota smiled sadly which was already getting Michael annoyed
” I’ll be leaving for the States tomorrow and don’t know when I’ll come over since I already finished my business here”
” We’re gonna miss you boss..”
” Should I come along? ” Takumi asked and Micheal thought for a while
” You can..” he said and two others raised their hands signifying they were interested in going with him too
” If that’s the case, we’re all going ”
” What of Jerome? Won’t he attack you?” Chota asked
” Then I’ll just blow his brain off..” Michael lit a cigarette and began to smoke it, puffing out air from his mouth and nostrils
” You can only control me here Jerome but you see there in the states, I’m a boss of myself” he muttered
” You should all get something to do or probably f_ck some Ɓîtçhes” he stood up
” Yes boss” they bowed as he left for his room
