You're Mine (GXG) -Completed/Re-Editing-

SIX

SONYA POV:

The live was a success, and the most  trending hashtag in the country was #BeckyJones. To be honest, I was too nervous for the airing , but failing to reach her earlier , I came to another  resolution .

1 HOUR EARLIER :

Staff member 1: " What the hell is she doing ?!"

The light was blinding .

Staff member 2: " I don't know ! but this is not in the script !"

The camera was on .

Staff member 3: " We can't turn it off ! it is getting too many views "

According to the script, I should be already done with the live; After firing 3 questions , regular business estimations for the Jones company future, which were formulated especially for this exclusive, I couldn't wrap it yet .

Besides me, there was one of the head representatives of the Jones family with whom we were able to get an interview with in these circumstances..

He was looking lost, and despite trying to muffle his perplexed expression off his old face with a plastic smile, his fingers were moving a bit too much and his face looked too tense to be deemed composed .

Meanwhile, I keep my stand, and I ask again. " Do you think Becky Jones was discarded by her late father ?"

A minute passes, he clears his throat, and smiles . " Everyone knows how capable the sole heir of the Jones family is . The chairman knew that too"

I fire another question. " Don't you think the late chairman violated his family's rights by involving an illegitimate heir to inherit the business ?" 

Having been her lover once, there was no doubt that Becky told me some things about her dad's posperious business. This man, Mr Richard, was one of the closest people of the company to the late chairman, and I knew that with more pressure, I might just get to the bottom of what is really happenning to her , and maybe even help her from where I was ..

He chuckles . " I think that is relative to the chairman's family themselves . I'm just a close aquaintance of the late busniessman "

I nod with a smile . " Thank you for your honesty , one final question is, is there a chance that someone might have messed with the will?"

I only now notice that the director was asking me to stop . Behind the cameras was chaos; however, I was more interested in the way my guest was fidgeting on his seat , as if he was hoping for a rescue team to save him with a helicopter.

He clears his throat . "No . The operation was carried in full discretion with the direct family members "

[PRESENT MOMENT]

Of course, one might say my career was over after veering off the script like that, and " acting of my own accord " in front of Millions of viewers, but after beating the record both in the national TV and on social media, the tables seem to have rather taken a turn ..

But most importantly, my phone was boomming with calls and messages, and the not so mysterious news reporter was becoming the second hottest trend in the social media..

The bus ride was longer than usual. The night was getting darker, and there was so much traffic. There was so much on my mind, and all I wanted was to get back home and absord all that has happened. I take a glimpse at my phone, and I swiftly put it back in my pocket .

How could she still not call me after this ?

***

As soon as I was home, my mom bombards me with questions, I was too tired to answer, but I do my best. Soon after that, my baby sister, Lina, begins crying. I tell my mom to relax as I enter her bedroom, and I run towards her when I see her sprawled on the floor while she was holding her ankle and sobbing from agony.

- " Lina ! are you okay?"

I pick her up from the floor and I tap her back. I have managed to calm her down a bit, but her ankle had a scratch, and it was inflamed around the scar. I sit her back on her bed, and I rush to get the medicine kit ..

In the living room, my mom was already deep asleep. It was a chilly, rainy night, and cold air was seeping from the window . Yet, my mom was curled up on the hard mattress and her body was shivering ..

I put a blanket on her body, and I go back to my sister's room where she was peacefully sleeping too  ..
