Seeing Alvin in such a state brought back so many memories, and not just any memories but the time he lost his mom, I had to see a side of him, I've not seen before and now, this happens?.
It would be that Elizabeth's ghost rose from the bed and wrote this message, or perhaps she possessed someone else and he or she did that, or maybe, someone else is playing a stupid game with us, pardon my language and come to think of it, Tonia is at the top of my list of people who are trying to become a barrier to mine and Alvin's happiness.
"Get up?".
I had him sleeping on the bed after I went out to call missing joy to clean up the message.
Alvin was given a sedative to help him sleep, and as for me, I went out to get more information about Alvin's friend.
I had the door closed and swiftly made my way over to Tonia's bedroom, I knocked but when no one answered I couldn't help but gain access
My eyes wandered around suspiciously, deep down I feel Tonia is responsible for whatever message we saw In the room.
" looking for me?".
The she-devil I came to see met me inside.
"Yes Tonia, can we talk?".
I said, veering around to meet her eyes repaired with mine.
" talk about what did anything happen?". ( Tonia's words to me)
I wasn't entirely buying her clueless demeanor, and trust me, I've battled a lot with evil people and I know when a person is one and who's acting all miss I'm so nice but deep down is a devil.
The tension kept towering up, she saw how lost I was in my thoughts, and decided to snap me back to her face.
"What do you want Lisa?".
Hey eyes still fixed on mine she says.
"I'm here to talk about Alvin".
I said and it seemed to have gotten her a lot interested.
"What about Alvin?". She adds up sending some strange glances at me.
I took a step backwards. Ran my head back as well before responding to her question.
"Tell me the truth Tonia, do you perhaps like Alvin?".
"Excuse me?*.
She laughed. "What are you saying Lisa?" And continued laughing.
"I'm saying the truth Tonia because not quite long as our bedroom was messed up by God knows who and to add up the shock a message from Alvin's ex fiancee appeared on the mirror, please kindly explain to me because I don't trust you".
I looked firmly without blinking my eyes.
She saw that I wasn't smiling. Thus decided to tell me the truth I craved to hear.
She says and I quote, "you're quite the smart on sweetheart, I under estimated you a lot".
( Continues talking)
"And to answer your question, you're right, I did that not to scare Alvin but to make scare you".
Tonia's words made no sense to me.
"What exactly do you mean?" I asked holding a curious look on my face.
She takes a deep breath and said, "Lisa, I'm not stupid to see that Alvin is your weakness and if you're weak, it gives me the chance to get you out of his life because I'm his one and only love"..
A frown on I replied, "you must be mad?, Do I look  weak Tonia, because of I do you're highly mistaking and let me warn you, if i catch you doing anything stupid again, I'll make sure I get you not only exposed but out of Alvin's life as well".
I warned and left without giving her chance to speak.
Having such a conversation with Tonia got me a little thirsty.
I went into the kitchen, opened the fridge, and brought out bottled water.
I swallowed greedily and threw it out.
For some strange reason having Tonia here is going to spark a lot of drama. Her obsession with Alvin is not gonna end well and before she ends up doing anything stupid, I'll have to do something against her.

The following daybreak, I fetched a call from home, tori phoned that mom had fallen ill. So, I rushed into the bathroom and left steering home.
At the sound of my car pulling at the drive away, tori ran out. "Hello sis, im glad you came home".
She said rubbing a tensed look on our faces.
" sis, where's mom?".
We ran up to her room. Mom swiveled and faced the door at the sound of her door alcove.
"Lisa, why are you here?".
She drips a grimace.
I sauntered in and sat next to her.
Mom gave me the look, after reading the mine.
"I'm fine Lisa, don't mind what your sister told you".
( mom adds up to her words)
I smiled and said. " hmm!! mom? so you mean that tori shouldn't have told me?."
"Yes, dear?" She ( mom) accepts drifting her stares away.
I pushed her back, placing a warm kiss on her forehead.
Tori moved in and join into the conversation. "Lisa, can we please talk?".
Her demeanor got me a little tense, we excused ourselves and walked outside.
" so please tell me?".
I said.
Tori moved her head back and forth before uttering. "Lisa, there's something you need to know about me?".
"What do you mean?".
Tori wasn't making any sense. Is there something she's keeping for me?
She looked down and said. "I'm not Tori?, I am not your sister, and I know you don't believe me, I think there's something you need to know".
What?". I exclaimed.
"What do you mean, you're not my sister, don't be stupid Tori?"
I laughed at her comments.
She lifts her head and kept a straight face.
"I'm sorry I can't lie anymore?".
Tori adds up her words again.
I tossed a step backward in a state of shock. I can't possibly believe that the person who we all thought she was, ended up being someone else
"Can you kindly explain?".
( After a while I said and she goes on telling the truth)
She says, "Two months ago, I met a man and he asked me if I wanted to make a lot of money, I affirmed and he told me what to do".
The man she spoke off sounded like it was Bryan, but I needed to be sure who it was.
So I said, "tell me something, who's he, like what's his name?".
She falls a frown and aired out.
"His name is Bryan Lowell, and I don't think he's going to back down so easily Lisa, his coming and he wanted me to pretend to be your sister".
( Thunderstorms goes off)
The news was too shocking for me.
I placed my hands on my face and watched as she waits to hear my response.
"Oh my gosh?".
Amidst the whole drama mom's voice gets us veering back in a state of shock.
She ( mom) pulled her feet back and falls unconscious to the ground.
"Mom?"
I ran to her aid.
Tori tried touching her but I nudged her off weaving out a warning.
"Stay away from her?"
She takes my threat and backs off. I carried mom into her room. Laid her on the bed and called the doctor home.
