Miss Lucy paced slowly towards Brian's drawer where his important files were kept, she wasn't meant to check through his files but miss Lucy was curious anyway, but it seems fate didn't want her to know what he always kept sacred away from her because Brian came in. He was nervous and then glanced at miss Lucy who pulled an innocent look at him.
“What's your plan about me?” He suddenly questioned and miss Lucy licked her lower lips confused.
“You should know… I don't need to you” she responded gazing her bandaged finger.
“Do you trust me?” He furthered in his questions as miss Lucy nodded. All this while, she had learned to trust him blindly, so it was a yes, and he sighed.
“Then come along with me… let's return, it's quite dangerous here” he persuaded as she rolled her eyes to and fro
“I don't want to go back to my former ways though… could that be possible?” She said and Brian nodded that it was because he was going to stay with her until the end.
“And well… would people believe I'm innocent? After the chaos I've caused… I was a fool for not defending myself, I bought the major just to close the case along because I intended to avoid problems…but you do believe me, right?” She suddenly stated and Brian nodded. He wasn't interested in her talks and just needed her to return with him to Los Angeles, what's more is that she was bringing up these phrases. Nonetheless, he wasn't going to change his decision eventually, justice was going to prevail.
“About Clara's death, I had no hands in it, I walked out the room in anger as she was just laying curses on me, but she was alive…and about that lady who also died… I”
“Lucy… let's forget about the past, okay?” Brian interrupted, attempting to sway his anger away because she was suddenly defending herself.
“I wish I could, but those damn haters wouldn't let me when I get there.
“Hey, I would be there for you and anywhere” he assured, hugging her, and she smiled with relief. At least, the man she loves trusts her, and that was all she needed. Even if the world doesn't, and he does, that was fine by her because he gave her hope of being a better person.
“Guess Julie would be the most excited this time around” Brian muttered.
“Kind of but she's going to miss friends around here though” miss Lucy responded.

Julie sat with Charles and Kate in the garden, she had returned from school and also gave these two her new home description. They only showed up when the adults were improper. However, on a fateful day, miss Lucy caught Julie with them and as the day goes, they realized miss Lucy was a kind being who decided on sponsoring their education at kate academy. Although, the kids were going to resume anytime soon. She was just opposite what Julie had told them, seems Julie didn't know her mother well enough to say she was mean to kids.
“Really? You keep relocating” Charles mused sadly.
“We weren't going to see each other after all because we are leaving for the academy” kate posed folding her arms.
“I'm going to really miss you” Julie cried squeezing a poor rose petal, which her hand got a grip of.
“Yeah me most” Charles added and kate scoffed at them both.
“But we would get in touch, right? Someday, you would come visiting” kate beckoned and Julie nodded while Charles sniffed.
“I doubt so… your mom is a celebrity, and would be so busy that she might forget us” Charles profess and the three's look seems sad as each were lost in thoughts.
“We could get in touch through your guardian, perfect!” Julie affirmed jumping up.
“Yeah great idea” Charles interjected but only kate didn't buy that idea. It was certain kate was a sadist, seems nothing pleased her.
“Friends for life!” Julie and Charles chanted and kate repeated with a faint voice.
“So when are you moving?” kate Asked and Julie sat down calmly
“Well in two weeks time*
“So soon?” The two chorused and Julie nodded.
“Wow…seems no much time to say our farewells” Charles beckoned, stretching his legs on the carpet grass.
“Yeah, that's true we would be resuming in a month time though” kate added, and they gasped loudly.
“I miss someone, that's why I want to return” Julie confessed.
“Is it your boyfriend?” kate Asked and Julie smirked at her.
“I don't fancy that… I believe I'm too young for that” Julie whispered and they both laughed.
“I doubt so” Charles opposed, blinking at Julie who scoffed.
“It's my nanny fools, Alexandra” she corrected, and they sighed deeply
“Is she dead?”
“Charles, come on…you always go the wrong way in conversations” kate barked and Julie giggled.
“I haven't heard from her for a year now, she must be really lonely,, although I wonder how her son's health would be?” She confessed sadly.
“I hope you get to see her” Charles prayed while kate hugged the worried Julie.
Brian recalled what the man had told him that he should watch his back because whom he trusts isn't the one he should. He groaned, annoyed that he let the man slip out of his fingers.
“Why does it hurt when I think about you? You make me feel a sudden guilt” Brian mused staring at miss Lucy's picture which was in a frame and stood on his desk. He had gotten to the office and thanks to miss Lucy's brilliant ideas, the company was been boosted to its apex, however, she never shows up and was mostly indoor nowadays.
“What have you done to me, Lucy?” He furthered, tapping his fingers on the desk. Ever since he brought about the idea of returning with her, she kept eluding in his thoughts. He didn't want to go with the idea that he was having emotions towards her.
