BELLA

♧CHAPTER FIVE♧

                   Giovanna p.o.v

You know the feeling of knowing you have people but still lonely.

You are in a crowd of people but yet feel so alone.

That's how this party is making me feel. I have Chole with me not by my side but I know she is here but yet so feel so out of place.

The whole place demands your attention at all times no matter what you are doing and I can't blame them for wanting to show this house off.

The house is a masterpiece in itself.

It's adorned with magnificent, expensive paintings that line the walls from floor to ceiling, creating an art gallery-like atmosphere.The walls are painted in a soft, neutral color to allow the artwork to take center stage. Soft, golden sconces cast a warm, gentle glow on the paintings, enhancing their allure.

The hallways with its rich, dark hardwood floor gleams underfoot, reflecting the splendor of the surroundings.

Filled with paintings in every corner, each painting is a masterpiece, meticulously curated and framed in the finest materials.

I walked pass them all, I am a fan of art even if I never understandthe meaning behind every one.

Art is a mindset that transcends boundaries and conventions. It's a way of perceiving the world with creativity, breaking free from the ordinary, and expressing one's unique vision. In this mindset, imagination knows no limits, and every moment becomes a canvas for inspiration, enabling the creation of something beautiful and thought-provoking. And I can't see anything beyond the colours and shades used.

"Pardon me..." a soft voice said behind me like it has been following me all this time. " Have you seen ms Rodriguez?"

"I am sorry but no" I said looking around staying on guard." I am actually looking for someone too, you might have seen him"

She looked me dead in the eyes and said " times running out...Who?"

"John"

"Second floor, third door to your left" she said turning to walk away "you will see it." And with that she walked away.

I went where she said but along the way kept a eye out. Coming to a party and doing a something as risky as I am, not the best for when you are running.

I entered the room and looked around till I found a black bag.

Please have what I want.

Opening it I find what I need and and more.

A laptop connected already to all the camera in the house. A rifle and a handgun knowing that it's mainly a back up.

A mask to cover my face in case anyone see me. A new set of clothes to help me blend in the city if it ever comes to that.

A passport and plane tickets. Always be prepared.

Killer did it again. Thank you.
