{ WHO ARE YOU? }
“What?” Kelly’s jaw dropped and her eyes widened in disbelief when Cody said those words.
Cody immediately pulled Kelly’s hand away from his shirt and adjusted his crooked collar.
“You heard me,I can’t believe you were foolish enough to believe I was dead. Because of the body you tossed in the river? That wasn’t mine but one of your gangsters,I guess you guys were too much for you to realize one was missing” Cody said,looking at Kelly intently.
Kelly couldn’t believe what he’s hearing.
He launched towards Cody and grab his collar again.
“You really think I’ll believe all this $h|t you’re saying? I’m not a fool idiot!” He yelled, his fraustration mounting.
Cody once again pushed him off and he starggered to the floor.
“I won’t force you to believe me, you don’t really know who I am anyway. I’ve manged to pretend to be somebody else for three years……
“Stop talking @zzhole! I’m gonna ki|| you, I swear it” Kelly fold his fist angrily.
Cody smirked and squat in front of him, bringing his face closer to his ear.
“You really think I’m afraid of you,I manged to escape death once,I’m not scared of you anymore Kelly,there’s nothing you can do now…. Why can’t you just accept that Ricky will always be better than you no matter what you do,and guess what? I’ve always been ten times better than you,I just have to lowered myself cos I don’t want Ricky to catch up” Cody whispered and Kelly’s anger even doubled.
“The next time you try to hurt Ricky, just know you’ll be dealing with me first. I’m not the same old Leo you use to know” Cody said seriously and started leaving…
“You care about Ricky over your own sister?” Kelly smirked hoping he would stop but Cody didn’t turn till he’s out of sight.
He got his phone to call one of the guy he assigned to watch over Vivian.
“Tell me Vivian is still with you,don’t you dare say the next word motherf-__-ker!” He spat.
“Vivian is missing” the guy told him on the phone.
“What?”
Back in the concert,the concert had ended, most of the fans began to leave the venue after being either dragged out of persuaded by the guards,none of them want to leave without getting another glimpse of Ricky’s face.
The girls that has passed out was carried out after calling for an ambulance.
Luckily,Ricky manged to took the back exit if not, he wouldn’t have leave the stage safely.
“How does it fell to finally reveal your face to the world?” Lily broke the silence after walking a few meters away from the hall.
The fans were still in sight so Ricky had a hoodie cap over his head plus a face mask,except this one is different from the ones he used on stage.
“I really didn’t believe I can do it, I was shaking on the stage” He replied.
“Really?”
“Yeah, the whole thing was a bit overwhelming,I’ve never performed in front of a crowd like that before,and the fans fainting definitely didn’t help at all I just hope they’re all okay. It’s kind of crazy to think that people would get that worked up over seeing someone just like them” He paused, and chuckled softly.
“I once passed out because of you” Lily said, confidently.
Ricky stop walking and face her.
“Don’t tell me you didn’t remember? Your first comeback concert for this year, you took a girl’s phone to make a video and I remember I saw you turned when I passed out but you didn’t wait.” Lily scoffed.
“f-__-k….. That was you?” Ricky couldn’t believe his ears.
“Yh,do you want me to show you prove?” She said,getting her phone.
“It’s fine! I remember your face now, but that was really crazy!” Ricky added laughing.
“Are you making fun of me now?” She frowned.
“No doll face, how does it feel to have me all to yourself now?” He retorted with a small smirk.
“I don’t feel anything” She made silly faces at him and before he could reply,he grab his hand and drag him to the ice cream stand nearby.
“Buy me those!” She pouted like a kid.
“Why are you so obsessed with ice cream?” Ricky shook his head.
“If you manage to get my favorite flavor, I might tell you” She push him towards the stand and wave at him to go..
She immediately got her phone inside her bag and fails Rowena’s line… She’s been receiving text for her since earlier but she ignored them..
“You finally decided to call” Rowena voice came up on the phone.
“What is this about mum?” Lily groaned.
“Get your àss here tomorrow morning, I’ve something to tell you” Rowena yelled.
“Look… If this is about Ricky again,you better give up. There nothing you can do that can make me broke….
The call got disconnected before she could finish.
“Who was that?” Ricky appeared with two different flavors of ice cream in his hands.
“Amelia,she was asking if I was home already” Lily smiled and took the vanilla flavor from him.
“Whao! How come you guess right?” She grimaced taking a quick lick from it.
“I got both because I thought one might be your favorite” Ricky said.
“You mean this one is for me too?”
Ricky nodded.
“I don’t like ice cream” He scowled.
“More for me then” She took the second one from him and stumping the both to her face.
“You are really obsessed….
“I love ice cream the most in the world” She interrupted.
“More than me?” He mumbled and Lily nodded
His expression fell, and he immediately turned his back on her, walking so quickly that she could not keep up.
“I was only joking” Lily laughed and quickly caught up with him.

NEXT MORNING,THE CAMPBEL**
Rowena was having breakfast when Lily arrived. She joined her at the table and Rowena look up.
“Thought you wouldn’t come” She snarled.
“Well, I’m already here… What is this about mum?” Lily mumbled.
“I see your boyfriend reveal he has a girlfriend to his fans”
“Yes and they didn’t have a problem with it” Lily scoffed.
“I guess, I’ll give up then” Rowena said and Lily’s eyes widened.
She jumped to her feet and rushed over to Rowena’s side.
“Are you for real mum?” She gushed.
“Yh, but if ever break up heart,I won’t be in for your tantrums….
“That’s never gonna happen,thank you so much” Lily hugged her tight kissing her face.
“Get off me snicky slut” Rowena scoffed but Lily didn’t release her.
“Really,thank you mum” She smiled.
•••
NEXT DAY,ROSES AND PETALS**
“The talk of the town has finally arrived!” Amelia exclaimed as Lily entered the room, carrying two food packages in her hands.
It was obvious that the packages contained delicious treats.
“The queen of the most famous singer, Ms. Lily Campbell Lim” Amelia added dramatically as the hugged.
“Stop being dramatic” Lily rolled her eyes and break the hug.
Ms. Rose appeared and hugged her too.
“That was so romantic, I’m happy for you” She said sweetly.
“You guys are treating me as if he proposed to me… He only told them he have a girlfriend,not like I was with him on stage” Lily chortled.
“I’m sure he will soon, wait for it. I can’t wait for you to turn to a celebrity,trust me… I’ll be your manager for free” Amelia retorted.
“Ugh” Lily shook her head.
“I brought us a treat” She added, dropping the packages on the table.
Amelia opened the first package, the scent of shrimp wafted out, mingling with the aromas of other savory ingredients.
She also found a delicious-looking dish of shrimp and rice,accompanied by a side of vegetables.
“Whao,you really know me well Lily. I didn’t have breakfast” Amelia blew her a kiss and Lily smiled.
“There’s a lot more” She said and went out.
Amelia found herself a seat and began digging in without waiting…
“Come join me” Her mouth was full as she called out Ms. Rose who’s already standing a few meters away.
“I’m allergic to shrimps” Mrs. Rose said and left to finish her undone business.
Amelia nodded but realization hit her like a bolt of lightning. The only person she knew who had a shrimp allergy was her mother,who left her with her father years ago.
“Hey! What are you thinking about?” Lily appeared and Amelia looked at her.
“Do you know Mrs. Rose was allergic to shrimps?” She whispered.
“That’s new! Too bad everything here has shrimps in it” Lily pouted and sit next to her.
“Are you okay?” She tapped Amelia who quickly snapped back to reality.
“Nothing!” Amelia smiled and continue eating.

NIGHT,A PARK**
“Is this actually real!” Amelia exclaimed as Trace showed her the video of the police taking Sebastian and his men away in a car.
“Apparently,they found drugs on him this time, and there’s no point in denying it. I’m sure he’ll end up behind bars soon, you have nothing to worry about” Trace explained and Amelia couldn’t contain her happiness.
She stared at the video, hardly able to believe what she was seeing.
It was hard to process the fact that Sebastian had been arrested, and that the evidence against him was so strong.
There’s no way he’s getting out! What more can she ask for?
“So,about what I ask?” Trace said cutting her though halfway.
Amelia looked at him and smiled at his nervousness.
“Let’s go back, your mum must be worried” She started walking away and Trace followed behind,a flash of disappoinment across his face.
He slid into the driver’s seat,and was about to start the car when Amelia’s voice stopped him.
“My answer is yes, I’ll be your girlfriend” She said,His eyes widened in disbelief,and he turned to face her.
“I love you too,Trace” She said again, and a huge grin spread across his face. He reached out and took her hand,squeezing it tightly.
“I love you more” Trace replied and Amelia got on his laps and crashed her lips on his crazily.

UNKNOWN PLACE**
Tanya arrived at the location Kelly told them to meet and found him sitting on a muddy rock over there.
“Seriously? What is this disgusting place? You could have just come to my condo or better still our meeting spot,not this annoying building? Let’s get out of here…. I can’t stand it” She complained.
Kelly didn’t reply,he didn’t move either…
“I believe I’m speaking to someone” Tanya walk up to him,Kelly shot her a deadly glare and grabbed her violently, strangling her neck.
“I’ll only ask once, Where’s Vivian?” He growled dangerously.
“I… don’t… understand…. w-what you’re talking about” Tanya choked as she tried to release herself from his grip.
“Do you know your f-__-king boyfriend is still alive?” Kelly gnarled and her eyes widened.
“What boyfriend are you talking about?”
“Cody is Leo you Ɓîtçh!” Kelly spat and her eyes grew so wide that they seemed to have bulge out of her head.

SATURDAY,MP MANSION**
Ricky didn’t go home last night cos the group were busy preparing for the last round of the competition so hard that they barely got a proper sleep.
Even though they always get the crown,they still have to work for it.
Trace was in the living room with Cody,no one was talking to the other.
Kris and Ricky are playing video games in Kris room.
Cody noticed Trace constant grinning at his phone but he decided not to ask since they aren’t in talking terms.
The door bell suddenly rings and Cody went to get it.
His eyes widened when he saw Lily,but he was not bother about Lily but the cat she was holding,White!
Lily on the other hand was gushing over his face, this is the first time she’ll be seeing him so close.
“Is Ricky in?” Lily asked nervously and Cody blinked twice stepping aside for her to come in.
“You must be…..
“My girlfriend” Ricky cut Trace off appearing with Kris,he slipped his hand around her waist.
“OMG! Why didn’t you tell me she’s coming over?” Kris gushed attempting to hug Lily but Ricky pulled him back.
“A simple Hi is okay” He said and the rest laughed.
“So selfish” Kris scoffed.
“Babe meet you already know who they are, guys meet Lily… My girlfriend” Ricky introduced.
“She’s pretty” Trace complemented and Lily blush lightly.
She can’t believe she’s having a convo with all members of her favorite band group except for Kelly though.
It’s felt like a dream come true…
“C-can I get all your authograph please?” She managed to find her voice giving a pleading look.
“Sure” Trace smiled and took the notepad and pen from Lily.
“Wow, you have a cat and I didn’t know!” Kris exclaimed, picking up the cat and cradling it in his arms.
“He’s so cute!” he said, cooing at the feline and beginning to play with it.
“It’s a she,not a he,” Ricky corrected,giving Kris a knowing look.
“Whoops! Sorry about that!” he said,gently stroking the cat’s back.
The cat purred contentedly and nuzzled into Kris’s hand.
“Can I get yours too?”
Kris drop her and add his authograph too,Cody only watch the scene silently and of course his face still glued on White.
For some reason,White was all over Cody too and Ricky couldn’t help but wonder why?
Except the cat knows or really like the person,she won’t even allow just anyone to touch her.
“Your turn Cody?” Kris called his attention and he took the book and signed it.
MINUTES LATER,
After chatting for a while,Kris offered to give Lily a tour of the house. Trace got a call and had to leave,so it was just the two of them exploring the home.
Cody returned to the living room to get a drink. But when he entered, he stopped in his tracks.
White was on the floor,playing all by itself. He tried to ignored it but his emotions wasn’t obeying him.
He looked around and make sure no one is in sight before carried White in his arms.
The cat sauntered over to Cody and jumped up onto his lap,settling in comfortably.
Then,to Cody’s surprise,the feline gave him a big lick on the face. It was as if the cat knew him,even though he was certain they had never met before.
This was a level of affection that she only seen it show to Lily and Ricky.
The cat originally belongs to Leo,but Ricky took over it after his death.
Did she remember him? Even when his face has completely changed?
“I’ve missed you so much…. White” Cody muttered and kissed it’s fur.
“What are you doing?” He turned to see Ricky standing in front of him.
“I…… can….. explain….Ricky…..
“How do you know her name is White? I don’t remember mentioning it,and did you just say you miss her? How do you know about the f-__-king cat?” Ricky yelled.
Cody went mute,unable to find his voice.
“Who the hell are you Cody!”
