UNMASKED VISION

C39 Climb the wall

Tsk tsk
She jumped down from the first floor landing steadily. Walking towards the figure the harsh wind blows on her face making her mind more clear. She still had her ugly makeup on. Dressed in her pyjamas she climbed the wall separating the two houses and sat on top of it.

" Hey player!are you trying to loose more weight or disfigure yourself"

"AHH!" JoJo who didn't hear any movement was startled and fell on the ground. He turned to face the woman on the wall staring at him.

" Hehe, dear why do you have to scare me like this I will have a heart attack and die. Who will love you then?"

" Love you say" Ivy sneered.  "Come here and stop embarrassing yourself"

JoJo hurriedly stood up and ran towards Ivy like a kid who received candy" Ivy are you finally seeing how good I am to you and want to give me a chance?"

Ivy paused," not all people that are good to you are sincere you know? There might just be putting on a show or maybe they do care but they care more about themselves "

"So your reasons are not enough for me to give you a chance"

JoJo scratched his head discouraged, " you are right I'll try harder then"

" I'll be engaged soon and here you are still planning to try hard"

" But you won't marry him"

" What makes you so sure?"

" That guy isn't even good to you if I don't have a chance what more him"

"...."Ivy was speechless.

She just smiled at him and he returned a silly smile." Climb the wall!"

" Climb, climb the wall? Me?"

"Yeah"

It's too high he can't JoJo almost cried.

"Just to climb a wall you are almost in tears how will you even win against my fiance"

" No I'll do it you wait up there don't go, this will take some time"

Ivy chuckled as she watched the poor guy climb and fall in every try. Finally he made it panting. " Ivy I-I made it haha"

The two sat on the wall and chatted in the cold night.

...

Vance sat on the plane with his phone lit but he didn't type nor call the number.

" President "

" Come in" he lifted his head and gestured for him to speak.

" I've collected all the information about the Crane family. The  family was a well off middle class family until John Crane, the eldest son took over and brought it to great heights after his father passed away. He married Jina Collins the sister of Rose Collins and gave birth to a daughter called Ivy. He had a younger brother Philip Crane who married Liza Jones. They met in country M and she has no background."

" She grew up in a ophanage and was adopted in a small family later on. They had two daughters Luxis and Sally. Luxis was sent abroad for her studies while Sally studied design.
Sadly a car accident took the lives of John and Jina who protected Ivy. They came from attending the wedding of a good friend and encountered a car crash on the road. Ivy was then raised by her uncle and aunt until the age of twelve she got kidnapped. I couldn't find any information regarding this which remains a mystery."

"She was found and brought back when she was Sixteen. Her personality changed then on and she somehow become known as a useless, ugly laughingstock of the family. She moved out later and was hardly seen unless she is called back home."
