Youth's POV
The photo shoots had ended by 12pm , I quickly retrieved my phone from adlina ,
I hurriedly dialed Susan's number
"The number you're trying to call is switched off, but you can leave a voice mail" a robotic voice was what I got instead.
I wondered what went wrong, I hope she's okay ,
I quickly got her address from Louisa bransheight general chief staff coordinator, a dark haired , grey eyed woman, short and curvy , she smiled stupidly at me exposing her gapped tooth, if it had been on a normal day I would play along and give her what she wanted , her face had turned cold when I asked her for Susan's house address
"What do you want it for?" She asked trying to hide her Jealousy painted face expression,
"You know better than to ask me that" I replied,
She knew what I could do, I could make her lose her job in the next 17hours ,
I wasn't a staff in bransheight, I was a high rated model, bransheight knows how much they'd loose if I slip away from their grip, they had stolen me from adre's with a tempting offer of paying me thrice higher, and they had jealously guarded me and prevented me from modelling for any company outside bransheight.
Louisa scribbled down Susan's address in a little piece of paper, I roughly snatched it from her and headed out.
When I got to Susan's apartment I knocked for hours , until her neighbor who had just returned informed me that she had left early in the morning and wasn't back yet, it's 2:41pm I'm dialing her number its still switched of,
Could she have skipped work to go on a date with her boyfriend and lied about being sick?
The thought of her alone with another man burned my head
No Susan wouldn't be so irresponsible
I hope she doesn't have a boyfriend though
Well what kind of goddess would lack a man in her life,
She definitely had a boyfriend.
No God please No,
She mustn't have a boyfriend
Gosh what's wrong with me, I'm crazy
I'm still standing at her door step
It's 3pm now, I fetch phone from my pocket
I dial her number , its ringing
Finally! Thank you Jesus
She isn't picking
What's wrong , why isn't she picking?
I dial her number twice more it rings but she doesn't pick ,
Did something happen to her,
As crazy as this may sound , believe me if I don't hear from her in the next 9hrs I'm going to file a missing person report.
I'm gonna wait till she returns .
I get into my car and sit down , I lean my head on my steering
No matter how long she takes, I'm gonna wait till she gets back.

Susan's POV
I wonder why youth kept calling , I wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone,
I had received tons of voice mails from various people including Carla,
I feel so emotionally drained , I touch my pale cheek and I feel moist , I didn't know I was crying again
It's 4:30pm i'm standing in front of the hospital, I've been standing here for the past 30mins, unable to move from my spot,
I bring out my phone from my bag and dial
Jake's number,
Jake is my best friend, we had met freshman year in college since then he became the closest friend I've ever had, he was reliable, loyal and kindhearted, he was entirely selfless, he always looked out for me.
"suz love, what's up" Jake says cheerily as soon as he picks
"I'm ..I..I'm.. Not so fine Jay !" I muffle between sobs
"Hey hey, suz what's wrong, talk to me" Jake says with concern in his voice
I sob louder , I can't control my tears , it cascades down my cheeks like a water fall
"You're scaring me suz, talk to me" Jake pleads
" I'm at the central hospital , could you come pick me " I say weakly
"Hospital? Suz Are you okay?, uh-uh-m I'm coming right away, I'll be there in 30mins" jay says as he hangs up,
I turn beside me, I see an empty bench, I've been standing for so long and now my legs were hurting badly, I slowly take my sit on the bench and continue my weeping ,
I was dead to my surrounding, I lost track of time , the next moment i see a blur vision of Jake walking up to me,
My vision has been blurred by my endless weeping .
Thankfully he doesn't ask or say anything to me, I hadn't the strength to answer any question.
He gently lifts me up, and carries me to his car, I don't flinch, someone could mistake me for a dead person .
I settles me comfortably in his car and gets in and drives me home.
