Chapter 51
Work had been hectic throughout the day and I was seeing a migraine making an appearance. I didn't have time to do any research about the three ghost brothers in my apartment because of how busy I had been with work. My feet were killing me and halfway through the day, I regretted why I had put on heels. Though it had helped in completing the attire, it had done a death blow to my legs. I opened the door to my apartment and kicked my shoes off, not bothering to arrange them neatly by the door. I was exhausted and Leslie hadn't been nice today. It seems like something crawled up her ass and died in it because she had done nothing but back out orders upon orders to us throughout work. I had almost wanted to remind her that she had handed a major task to me that needed more attention than the flimsy ones she was throwing my way at that moment but I had to bite the tip of my tongue not to say anything that would affect my already troubled life. I had enough problems to deal with and add

"There's nothing wrong with my attitude, okay?" Drew denied.I scoffed. "That's what you have been saying. Guess what? The words coming out from your mouth differ from your behaviour," I said, not buying his excuse."What do you want me to say, Amanda?" He sighed."Am I being a disturbance to you?" I asked him, not understanding his nonchalant behaviour toward me. "No, you aren't.""So why can't you tell me what's wrong?" I asked, frustrated with his attitude. Drew was behaving as if nothing was wrong but I could see clearly that there was something definitely wrong. The problem was getting it to admit it and let me in on whatever was the issue. "Fine, If you really want to know why I am behaving like this, then I will tell you. The attitude you portrayed last night wasn't nice.""Oh, please. I was just trying to have some fun. That isn't something you should sukk over," I said dismissively."Fun?!""Yes, is there anything wrong with that?" I asked, surprised by his reaction."You c

I stormed into my office the next morning. Like, I stormed in because I was still furious about what happened the previous night. What gives him the right to question who I bring and don't bring home? Is it any of his business? Does he want me to become a ghost lover? I asked myself. I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't notice that Cassie had been calling me. “Amanda."“Yes, what is it?“ I snapped at her. “Hey, calm down. What's the matter?“ She asked me, worry etched all over her face. “It's nothing,“ I replied with a wave of my hand. “ Do you need something?" I asked her. “Nuh huh, something is going on with you and I want to know what it is. So you are going to sit your ass down on that chair and tell me what the fuck is going on with you," she demanded. I sighed before plopping down on my chair, the wheels spinning me, so I faced the glass wall behind me. “It's just some minor issues, I told her after a minute of silence."“Minor issues my ass. There's definitely

“You know that isn't true, “ I said to her. Though I was screaming and nodding my head in affirmation of her theory inwardly, I didn't let it show on my face. “Whatever. Anyway, there is a task for you and I need a report by next weekend," she said, throwing a brown envelope on my desk. I palmed my forehead inwardly. I knew that her reason for coming to my office wouldn't be good and she just confirmed it. “And what does this task entail?“ I asked her. "It’s all in the envelope,“ she replied, making a gesture with her eyes towards it. I picked up the envelope slowly, dreading what I would see in it. I felt like I had just been given an envelope that contained a record of all my past deeds, not like they were evil. Gathering enough courage, I opened the envelope and the picture fell out. I picked the picture and brought it closer to my face to get a Perfect view. “You can't be serious," I shouted after confirming the identity of the person. “Yes, I am,“ she replied with an evil

Drew stood by the kitchen door watching as Amanda ate the food that he had prepared for her. Though he was still angry at her for what had happened the last two nights, he knew she was exhausted and needed to eat to regain her energy. His brothers had ridiculed him when they found out that he was preparing something for her but that hadn't stopped him. He couldn't fathom what was wrong with him and why he couldn't find it easy to detach himself from her. Yes, they weren't on good terms at the moment but his heart cared more about her than he was willing to admit. Feeling satisfied that Amand enjoyed the food he prepared for her, he meandered out of the kitchen and went to the balcony. There was snow covering everywhere and people running about in winter jackets. It was sad that he couldn't feel the changes in the weather because of the situation that he and his brother were in. “How nice it would be to spend time with Amanda, having snow fights and skating in the Ice rings," he thou

She rolled her eyes, “Okay, so I was on the phone with one of my informants and he told me about the whereabouts of Sean,“ she informed me. A smile gradually appeared on my face on hearing the news and I squealed happily. “Wow, that's great,“ I said to her. “Yes, it is but there's a catch,” she interjected, “Oh, no. That's what the bad news is all about, right?“ I asked her. "Don't tell me he got into an accident and he is in a coma?“ I said immediately not waiting for her reply to my previous question. “No, he is not," she answered me, smacking my upper hand in the process. “Okay, that's a relief and mind you that hurts like mad." "It was meant to hurt. How could you think the worst of an idol like him?“ “Come on, the guy hardly allows anyone to have an insight into his personal life. It's not my fault that I thought something bad had happened to him," I countered."Well, you never cease to surprise me,'' she said with a sigh. "That's a good thing, right?“ “Well, if you wan

"Is that what you are bothered about or you are bothered about who prepared the food which I must say was all three of us," Mason replied.“Oh, is that so?“ Amanda asked not believing him. "I am disappointed that you would think only my elder brother can prepare a meal to suit your palate. Need I remind you that we are all chefs? All three of us for that matter," Mason told her, hinting at the fact that she was interested in his elder brother. "That's not what I meant,“ she said, the words coming out in a stutter. “You don't have to rub it in my face for me to know that you have been searching for my brother all the while you stepped into the apartment,” he scoffed. Amanda was shocked that he was able to read her easily. Was it that obvious that she had been searching for Drew since she got home? She asked herself. He had been avoiding her and even though she had seen the other two of his brothers she couldn't help but be bothered by the fact that he wants there. “You are getting

Mason and Calvin let out the breath they had been holding. They had been watching the duo argue at the dining table without interrupting. Though, they had both prayed that their foul mood didn't affect the gathering. That would just make everything go to waste. Mason on the other hand was more worried about his brother's attitude towards Amanda. He felt Drew was handling his emotions wrongly and if he didn't tell Amanda how he felt, then he would lose her faster than he expected. Dinner went on smoothly after the mini-argument between Amanda and Drew. The food was delicious and Amanda couldn't help but savour the taste of every dish. “This tastes wonderful. I know you guys are great but I wasn't expecting this, '' she said, covering her mouth to prevent spillage of the food she was munching on. "I'm glad to see that you are enjoying the meal. Although, half of everything was made by Drew,'' Calvin muttered. “What?“ Amanda shouted in shock. She wouldn't have believed that Drew woul

The next morning, I was up as early as three a.m. to prepare for my flight. I went about placing my laptop in my bag and ensuring that my recorder was with me. I took a quick shower and dressed up quickly before leaving my room. I had made arrangements with Cassie to drop me at the airport so I called her number as I left the room to be sure that she kept to her promise. She informed me that she and Martins were five minutes away from my apartment and I was glad that she didn't oversleep. I grabbed a snack from the refrigerator and glanced around my apartment one more time to see if I had missed anything. Feeling assured that I was okay, I walked towards the door before a voice stopped me in my tracks. “You are leaving now?“ Drew asked I turned around to glance at him. I didn't know if ghosts sleep but he looked like someone who didn't have a good sleep the previous night. His eyes were sunken and had black bags underneath them. In general, he looked completely different from his n

Sean Connery was sitting right beside me on the plane that I had boarded.The very person whom I was making this trip for was sitting right beside me. What the hell was happening? I screamed inwardly as I fanned myself needing air desperately. All of a sudden, the plane became so stuffy and I knew the reason for that was because the very person whom I had been thinking of throughout the night was right beside me. It's not like I fantasized about him all night. No, I had been thinking of how I was going to meet him and talk him into allowing the interview but the opportunity just presented itself and I will be damned if I don't make use of it. But, come to think of it. How is it possible that he was boarding the same plane as me to Seattle when the report Cassie sent to me stated that he was in Seattle already?Is it that she gave me the wrong information or her report was tampered with? I wondered. Anyway, I would be sure to inform her about that once I arrived in Seattle. Right n
