ONCE AGAIN IN LOVE(Part 1).

Making breakfast for her daughter, she called her to have it with her as she was getting ready to go to school.

" Grace! Come have breakfast baby". Olivia Pereira, her mother called her.

"Yes mommy". Grace came running and giggling a bit she seated.

The mother and daughter had their breakfast and after making her wear the shoes, they left.

Grace and Olivia waited for the elevator to come as they live in a rented apartment.

Suddenly the air became dense and a figure walked with a dominating era. Noticing someone coming close to her she turned her head to look at the person and was stunned.

The ACE ANDERSON was coming their way, not only coming but also joining them in the elevator.

This man right here is said to be the most dangerous man. He is a gangster and has done numerous murders, every now then there is a rumour about him. The people in the building absolutely hate this man and always stay six feet away from him.

Olivia shifted uncomfortable from him with Grace holding her hand tightly. Soon the elevator came and the door opened making her sigh .

Olivia and Grace entered first and stood straight while Ace entered behind them and stood beside them.

He checked out Olivia from head to toe but didn't said anything.

Grace eyes twitched at the sight of the lollipop Ace had just removed from his pocket. Olivia noticed it and she shook her head as no.

The elevator was on the 1st floor with just one more floor to go then they'll be free.

"Can you tell me which flavour lollipop is this, it looks very delicious?". Grace asked the man and he looked as if he is mute. He gave her a weird stare which Olivia didn't like at all.

The door of the elevator opened and Ace left from there without saying anything but his eyes said it all. He doesn't like kids.

"Grace! why did you ask him that?". Olivia burst on Grace as soon as they left the building.

"I just wanted to ask the flavour of it. It looked very tasty and you know na Mommy I'm very fond of lollipop". Grace said and Olivia took a deep breath.

Lowering herself to her level Olivia held her shoulders explaining her.

"See baby, you can't talk to anyone just like that. You can make them uncomfortable and I get it that you were asking about the flavour but you saw na he maybe got shy and didn't even answer your question. And what I told you is that not to talk to strangers, they're bad people. You get what Mommy is saying?".

"Yesss!". Grace said nodding her head and she smiled at her daughter.

Seeing her off at school, she moved to her part time job at a restaurant.

"Today there are a lot of customers. Work faster ". The owner said and Olivia hesitated before speaking.

"Actually, I need.. to go early today. I had to visit my in-laws
Ma'am ". Olivia said and the owner sighed loudly.

"Okay, I'm leaving you early just because of your in-laws ". The owner said because she also knows her story and often get sympathy for her.

She finished her work and walked to her in-laws house. She has a spare key, so she unlocked the door.

"Who's there?". A lady asked upon hearing the main gate being unlocked.

"It's me". Olivia said putting on a smile.
