i'm inside the grocery store picking up a few items. before i came here,i went to where they killed finneas and helped it make it look like he shot himself. 

everyone keeps staring at me,of course i know why but it's still awkward.

i hear the sound of a camera click and i turn my head to see paparazzi hiding behind a shelf.

i roll my eyes before going into the self checkout. i checkout myself and leave out.

as i'm walking to my car a lady begins speed walking her way towards me. my bodyguard stands in front of me quickly.

"mrs o'connell i need to deeply speak with you" the woman tries desperately

"make an appointment with my receptionist" i say walking faster to my car

"my daughter is victoria" the woman say

i stop in my tracks and turn around. "mrs. o'connell, what are you doing?" my bodyguard asks

"her daughter is the girl that went missing" i say "now move"

i walk around him and he grabs my cart before i walk towards the woman. "what's your name?" i ask her

"alyssa"

"im so sorry about your daughters disappearance, its taken a toll on her co workers and hopefully they can find her"

"this is so bad to say but i feel like she's dead" she say

oh yeah she definitely is. "don't lose hope, she's still fighting out there" i say

"what do you think happened to her?" she sniffs

"i don't know,does she have a boyfriend or something?" i ask

"no,she havent told me about anyone"

"maybe she's been talking to someone new that she thought she could trust" i say

"i just want peace on what happened to her. i can't keep living wondering where's my daughter and if she's coming back home or not" she say

"i'm going to do everything in my power to help you" i say

"thank you,i really appreciate that. victoria always talked about how good of a boss you were. i want to thank you for being a nice boss. they're are people that treat their workers horrible" she say

"of course" i say before my bodyguard interrupts us

"it's time to go" he say before basically dragging me to the car

"damn! i can't even talk" i say before he opens the door for me to get in the car

i pull out my phone to text aaliyah and she still haven't replied to any of my texts. i press that call button and it immediately goes to voicemail. she got me fucked up.

i drive off speeding back home as quick as i can. i grab the groceries and use my free hand to unlock the door before walking in.

i hurry and sit down the groceries on the kitchen counter before heading to the living room. i see she's not in here and head upstairs.

i open the door to our room to see her on the bed with her computer laying on her lap as she type away. "you're so petty that you ignored my text and calls" i say

she looks up at me and roll her eyes before looking back at her computer.

"oh,so now you're not speaking to me?" i ask before taking off my shoes

"oh so you're not gonna apologize?" she asks

"what do i have to apologize for huh?" i ask

"you know what for. st-"
