At the end of the day, Cathy is done with her work, she walked out waiting for her cabman but he is nowhere to be seen, she bring out her phone to call.

Tony eyes darkened, jack is also his suspect, when he saw him enter the room with Cathy that day, his mind is not with him again, so he have to replace him, anyone coming close to his beans pie, is a suspect.

Beans pie, I have made my decision and it's final, you are staying with she, Bob will remain your new cabman and you will not go to Eve's party.

But...

Not a word, I am off and don't off the light.

Tony grab his keys off he goes, Cathy fall to the floor and cry.

What have I gotten myself into, I can't call Whitney, he will know what we talk about, I have no one to turn to, I hate this life of mine.

Craig is hearing her tears, his heart is beating fast but the day is still very bright, it was hell for him, he pick his phone and call her but she didn't pick, when the day go dark a bit, he mount on his bike off he goes.

Why did you stop? Cathy asked as she climbed down.

Do you want to fall? Craig asked her, she shake her head, the next thing she lie on the floor, she is not scared.

You not scared, if there is Snake. The two people he had brought here, where scared at first, they even asked him, if there is snake but this girl, she is not.

Is there snake? she asked.

Yes and it's over there. Cathy jumped on him, he wasn't thinking that she do that, the both of them are on the floor, Cathy is on top him.

Please, don't let it bite me

How can I when you are on top me? She chuckled, and hit him slightly.

There is no snake, you are just teasing me.

He smile as well, Cathy is looking at him, his eyes that are exposed, are really gorgeous

When will you let me see your face?

What will you do if you see my face? She smiled.

Till then.

Okay, why are you sad?

I don't have anything, I don't have no one to talk to me, Tony doesn't want me to be with Whitney and now, I can't also be with you

Her tears drop.

Don't worry, I will come to you.

No, someone will be in my house by tomorrow, so you can't come anymore, can I have your number so I can reach you.

Don't worry, I will always come to you.

No, Tony will know, will you take me to your house?

Do you want to go to my house? Craig asked her, she nodded.

There is a big monster in my house.

What? You live with a monster? She asked him all scared, she jumped from him.

Do you still want to go with me? No, I want to sleep.

She is snoring already. What is wrong with this girl?

He carry her to his bike, he is riding really slow, one hand is on the bike and the other hand is handling her tight, so she doesn't fall.

Whitney is having insomnia, Gregory enter her room, he want to ask her about her days in the office, he is tired of waiting for her to tell him on her blog.

She opened her eyes, she see Gregory, she hugged him.

Are you alright?

No, I want to see Cathy, she is in pain.

Whitney!

No, I need to see Craig, he told me, he will help me to get Cathy, I am ready now.

She opened the door, Gregory grab her hand.

Stop it, you should drink water, you are stressing too much.

They both sit at the dinning, Tony get to the living room, seeing the two.

Wicked soul.

Tony did not reply her, he is mad already, Cathy is not taking his calls, he dart outside, Craig saw him coming, he changed the root, Tony did not see Craig.

Craig wasn't expecting anyone to be at the living room when he arrives, but to his surprised Whitney is right in front of him.

Why are you dress like a criminal? Whitney asked him, as he is catch taking off his face mask, his eyes bulge out.
