AUTHOR POV

The girl had honey brown hair with electric blue eyes. Her hair flowed down till her hips. Her natural beach wave curls perfectly complimented her petite figure and her height. She wasn't too short, yet she wasn't tall either. Having a moderate height of 5'4 was satisfactory enough for her. She lived with her grandpa in a fairly rich part of the society. She had lost her parents at a young age and lived with her grandparents since she was 10 years old. She had lost her grandmother two years ago.

This is Mia Angelo. She lives with her grandpa, Marco Angelo, whom she mostly calls 'Pops'. They live in a cozy two storied house with a large front yard as well as backyard. She is 19 and is in the last year of her university degree. She wants to be an entrepreneur. She likes helping people in her free time along with dancing and singing. She is the highest scorer in her class and takes part in the university activities actively.

"Honey, don't you think you should focus more on your studies now?" Marco asked his little grand-daughter.

"I am doing my best at school, Pops. I get the highest score in my class and I participate in the cultural activities of university too. I just like doing these in my free time. Please Pops, lemme do these in my free time please?" She asked in a pleading tone while using puppy eyes.

The old man let out a sigh and nodded his head tiredly.

"You always have your way of making things work, don't you? Fine. Do what makes you happy. But don't get in trouble, okay?"

"Thank you, Pops. Love ya!!! " She shouted out before making her way out of the house with her bike keys.

She ran through the lush green garden that she and her grandpa had created in their front yard. She mounted her Royal Enfield 838 CC and took off to her destination. She was supposed to meet up her friend Sasha at their favourite café. After a few minute ride through the city of New York, she finally reached the cozy and warm café.

MIA POV

I glanced around the café to find my bestie and found her sitting by the large window seat, our favourite, sipping on her caramel latte. I beelined through the busy café to make my way to her.

"Sasha!!! Thanks for getting me my drink beforehand, babe. " I chirped and sat on the seat and immediately took a sip of my cold coffee. Yup! I am a caffeine addict. Well not a total addict but I do need a cup of my favourite cold coffee with whipped cream, ice cream and chocolate chips everyday to keep me alive.

"Mia, you called me out so urgently. What is it girl? Are you okay? Do you need any help?" Here comes out the motherly avatar of my bestie. She is like my mother, bestie, sister and family. All in one. I am glad I have her.

"Well you know James, right? He needs our help. We need to help him." I told her after taking a bite of her black forest cake. Yummm.

"James? You mean The 60 year old James Robert, that you always talk about?" She inquired.

I nodded my head in affirmation. "You know his son sent him to an old age home saying he is mentally sick, right?"

She nodded and motioned me to continue.

"Well he is in love with June. She is an old lady in the same old age home. Her son left her there too. They love each other, so I wanna help them marry each other." I said with a straight face.

Sasha chocked on her drink so I helped her clean up and patted her back to calm her down. Knew it. Her reactions are so predictive. I mentally rolled my eyes.

"What? Are you crazy? They are so old, and they are in love? They wanna marry at this age?" Sasha asked skeptically.

"Love isn't about age. We can fall in love whenever we feel like. When we find the right person, it doesn't matter how old they are, how much time we have with them, or how can we fight with the society for our love. All we know, and all that matters will be that we want to be with them till our last breath. Help me unite them, please." I pleaded her.

Sasha sighed but nodded eventually. "So what's the problem? Why don't you just help them set up the marriage?"

"Its not that easy girl. I tried but James' and June's sons don't want this. They forbid the entire faculty from even allowing me to meet them. So we need to find some other way to get them together." I said.

"So what do you think we can do?" She said while taking a bite of her cake.

"Simple. We have only one option left. Kidnap them." I said with a straight face.

Sasha chocked on her cake again. Gosh! She needs to stop chocking on her food every time I speak.

"Are you crazy?! Kidnapping?! Do you want to get us arrested?! Girl!! Stop giving such crazy ass ideas!!" She whisper yelled at me. I just rolled my eyes.

"Girl I am not dumb. If I am saying it, there must be reason behind it. Always remember that. We won't do the kidnapping ourselves. We will get someone to do it for us. We pay them and they do the job for us. Simple." I explained her.

"But who would want to do such things for us?! No one wants to get arrested willingly now, do they?" She sarcastically spoke up. She had a point though. We didn't know any such dangerous person who would want to do this for us. We were in a minute of silence and it seemed like God himself prepared an answer to our queries.

We heard a random group of girls gossip behind us. We didn't mean to eavesdrop but they were speaking so loudly that even the people in the corner of the café would be able to hear them. Not our fault bishes.

"Did you hear? Greyson Williams will be released from the central prison today. He was accused of kidnapping and murder but he came out of prison so quick!"

"Of course I heard about it girl. And why not? He is the right hand man of the leader of Blood Swans. He can get away with crime easily."

"Greyson is so handsome you know. How bad!! He is a criminal." They continued blabbering but I got what I wanted.

I looked at Sasha and smirked. She immediately knew what was on my mind so she started shaking her head violently.

"Yes Sasha, we are going. Only he can help us now. We will pay him and he will do the job for us."

"No. Do you even know who he is? He is a criminal, Mia! We can't be associated with him. We can find another plan." She sternly denied me but I am not gonna back out.

"Gurl!! We can't lose this opportunity. We know their location for now. If we don't grab our chance right now, we will lose it forever!! Everything's ready. I have the wedding set up completely in a about 2 days from now. We only need them to be there."

After a long 10 minute of persuasion, Sasha finally agreed. Well that's all I needed. Now let's get our James and June the help they need.

To Be Continued~

Will Mia and Sasha get the help they need or will Greyson deny them? Who is Greyson actually?
