Love the sinner, Hate the sin 23.
She's a goal-getter.
I rushed out and boarded the first taxi I saw at the first instant I sighted it.
" Bixler apartment please, I said in a hurry.
" Uhmmmm I didn't get the address,The taxi driver said, I knew what he was thinking I was probably looking too broke to have a mansion at that estate but I chose to ignore it.
" You heard me perfectly sir, I frowned.
" Oh yes ma'am, He said.
It was almost an hour's drive back to the mansion, Immediately after the car stopped I jumped out and headed for the MG home.
" Ma'am you haven't paid for my services, The Taxi driver call out.
" Oh I am so sorry, I said.
" Why is she in a hurry??? Eddy giggled.
" You guys get down and change, We have another shoot, Paul announced.
" Oh come on, It's the fifth time today...Jimmy nagged.
"It's what you signed up for when you signed that contract, Daniel sighed.
Tessa's pov.
I rushed inside but the house was empty, I was very sure Seth sent me a text message that Mrs. Tae mo wanted to see me but the house was empty.
" Heyyy Sandra, Eddy waved.
The boys were walking in looking like, There have been sprinting the whole day.
" What are you doing here ??? We saw you at a cafe downtown, Jimmy said.
"You saw me ???? I asked confused.
" Yeah with that guy I saw you with at that apartment complex, Adrian winked.
" Ohhhhhhh….Did Mrs. Tae mo stop by??? I asked looking at Seth.
" Didn't Paul ask us to get changed, Seth, scolded.
" Yeah right….We have a photo shoot with the new product we are branding for, Daniel said.
" Hmmm I see, So Mrs. Tae mo hasn't stopped by…I asked.
" Nope she's on vacation, Paul said.
" Why are there in a hurry???? I asked Paul.
" Ohhh there has a shoot, You heard Daniel say that didn't you???? Paul said.
" Yeah I did..Did you guys see me at the cafe????
" Yeah with that cute guy, We saw you smiling and blushing, Do you like him that much???? Paul teased.
" I don't know what you are talking about, I said running to my room...I quickly washed up and changed into a jean and a T-shirt...I rushed to the kitchen to prepare toast and I saw the guys rehearsing their lines.
" Sandra do you want to watch the shoot???? Adrian asked.
" Yeah, You should come along, Eddy said.
" Yeah, I need your honest ratings, Jimmy added.
" Do you want to come???? Daniel asked.
" She doesn't want to, Seth cut in.
"It will be fun, I smiled.
" Okay let's go, Eddy said heading to the party bus.
" Heyy wait up, Jimmy said.
" Sandra…. Adrian dragged me backward.
" What was that for ???? I nagged.
" I need your help, We are stopping at the company after the shoot...
" So what ???
" Stop being rude, Adrian nagged.
" Fine so…
" I think Lisa isn't ready to get back together, So why don't we use the jealous therapy... She's the jealous type...I want her back... Adrian muttered.
" Aishah you are deeply in love with her, That's a bad thing...I sighed.
" How is it a bad thing????
" You have been poisoned...I sighed.
" What do you mean??? Adrian asked.
" You will become weak and miserable when you fall in love and when you fall too deeply, It becomes a terrible poison you can't escape...I sighed remembering the types I spent with Leo and I was battling with the tears in my eyes.
" Who hurt you??? Adrian asked.
" What do you mean, Let's go the boys are waiting, I sighed.
" Wait up, Why do you think love is poison? Who hurt you ???? Come on tell me...Do you want me to fight for you???? Adrian said trying to catch up with me.
" Are you guys coming in or what??? Seth frowned.
Adrian sat next to me bugging me throughout the whole trip.
" Are you going to help me with Lisa??? Adrian texted.
" Why are you bothering me ??? I replied.
" Come on….. Please I miss her ... Adrian replied with a thousand crying emojis.
" Fine, You guys are featuring Alexia in your new song right….
" Yeah….Why ??? Adrian texted.
" Don't worry, I have a new plan...I replied and Adrian smiled at me.
" What's going on between you guys???? Eddy asked stroking his chin.
" What!!!!! Sit down Eddy, Adrian teased.
" You guys have been acting suspiciously these days, Jimmy stroked his chin.
" We are here, Paul announced.
" Do you want to wait in the car ???? Adrian asked.
" Why would I want to ??? I am coming along...I said.
The shot took about two hours, It was a commercial for a brand but the shooting was taking forever because Adrian kept forgetting his lines.
" Adrian can you focus on the blue marked characters, The director said frustrated.
" I am trying, Adrian, sighed.
" It's obvious Adrian can't focus because of how much he misses Lisa, I need to do some digging on Alexia, I smirked.
I plugged in my earphones and proceeded to stalk Alexia, She was a popular music icon too just like the guys but something stand's out about her, She seems to be in love with Adrian, and blogs and the e-news exposed that she confessed her feelings for him a few times now this is exactly what I need.
" It's a wrap guy…
" I need coffee, Eddy said.
" I will get one too, Jimmy said.
I noticed the boys all had something to say before shooting or rather requested for something but Seth stayed glued to his phone with his ear pod, He was a certified loner.
" Hey…..I said to Seth.
" What do you want???? Seth frowned.
" Do you want anything???? I asked.
" I saw the errand personnel around, Why didn't I ask if I needed something????
" Why are you being so mean ??? I just tried to care, I scoffed.
" So what...Seth walked out.
" What's his problem, I frowned.
" Sandra we are heading for the company, Adrian said to me.
Being called Sandra was a pain in my heart that I couldn't avoid, I recently despise my sister because of how she chose to abandon her root, and here I am using her name.
" I need to get out of this mess real fast, I sighed.
We arrived at the company and Seth was still weirdly acting cold, He was always cold but Today was extra and I was even scared of scolding him for lying to me that Mrs. Tae mo needed me, I didn't know how he was going to react.
" Sandra do you know what to do about me and Lisa??? Adrian asked.
" I am pretty sure this is not what I was paid to do, I said.
" Ohhhh !!!! Come on ... Adrian nagged.
" Fine, Fine….I left to look for Lisa, I already have everything planned out and if Lisa doesn't want to come back to Adrian after this it's clear she doesn't want to have anything to do with him or she has a stronger reason to break up with him.
" Heyyy...Lisa smiled at me, I could tell why Adrian was crazy about her aside from her amazing personality, She has a beautiful face and smile, She was well endowed with beauty and anyone could see it.
" Heyy it's been like forever, I replied with my face beaming with a smile.
" I know right? I have been so busy especially now Mrs. Tae mo is on vacation. Lisa said.
" You need a vacation too, I smiled.
" I do, So how have you been doing???? I didn't expect to see you here..Lisa said.
" I've been good I guess. Just wanted to stop by the house is boring, I said.
" You can always stop by, Lisa said.
" Yeah...The boys seem to be busy these days, I said looking at the guys at their recording office.
" Yeah there are having a duet with Alexia in their new song, Lisa muttered.
" Alexia, Huh!!! I am a big fan of her work...I smiled.
" I don't fancy her, Lisa frowned.
" Really!!!! I wonder why...I replied.
" Do you not know or you are pretending not to, Lisa said giving me this funny look.
" Well...I know she has a big crush on Adrian and she wouldn't stop at anything until he is hers, She's pretty desperate. Don't you think so ??? I asked.
" For someone who always dedicates her love song to him, She's pretty desperate. Lisa frowned.
" This song is going to bring them closer, I am afraid for you guys. I sighed.
" What do you mean??? Adrian and I are no longer a thing, You know that….. Lisa said.
" Yeah I do but I am pretty disappointed you are backing down so quickly...I said.
" What do you mean??? Lisa asked.
" When you both fell in love, You both agreed to be poisoned by each other. What does this mean??? Being each other's weakness and antidote... When he needs you to be there for him you have to and When you need him I know Adrian gonna pull up for you, But I am confused why you care about what people are going to say about you guys…
" You don't understand, Lisa sighed.
" Believe me I do, You are betraying him by letting him go like that... You knew from the start how dangerous and complicated your love story would be but you choose to be the female lead, Now what is a feature of every female lead, A goal getter? She's a goal getter that's what I like to call it... Lisa, you can't back down now not until the story has a happy ending plus Alexia is cute, I said.
" Sandra thank you so much, Please Tell Adrian to meet me at my place, Lisa grabbed her keys and left.
" Sure, I smiled.
My childhood memories seem to fade away but I will never forget a nickname I earned in elementary school, A goal-getter...It was because when I am sure I want something I stop at nothing and get it done, I might not be a therapist but I know what Seth needs to be okay and I think I can make it work.
