"What do you mean you were planning to kill me. Who were you planning with, you jerk" I ask him trying my best not to sound shocked.
He just smirks and shakes his head, "How can you be so blind Lola. You have been fucking with your killer who supposedly was going send you to your Maker"

I fall back to the seat next to me. I just can't believe it. Talia was planning to kill me. Why would she do that anyway. What have I ever done to her that made her make up such a plan. This is just so confusing. I fucking loved that girl with everything I had. I even chose her over my parents.

"She wanted your money. Actually, WE wanted your money. You are so successful and filthy rich so we figured that you are our next target. We have been doing this for the past seven years after we got out of the streets. We just used to wander around looking for food and shelter." Talia was a street child?.This is news.
" One day, a guy came in the name of helping Talia and I. But I knew it was because of Talia's beauty. He took us to a mansion and we stayed the for a month. He then came with another intention. He wanted us to work for him. He wanted as to act as impostors. He claimed that it brought a lot of money. Talia started working as a baby sitter in some rich couple around town.  She hated kids but there was no other option. She did her job well there just because of money. Our aim of acting as impostors was to steal every penny from our targets. After five years, Talia got tired and decided to run away. I helped her but I knew our boss would surely kill us.
He later found you Lola. I've never seen her so in love. I even doubted that she still loves me."     Wait, what, she was cheating on me all this while.

All this time I'm just quiet and mesmerized by this story. He continues,
" She broke up with me weeks later when you were together. I terribly felt hurt and jealous. I couldn't believe he could choose you over me.
I proposed a plan. Or rather I blackmailed her. I asked her to give me money and I'll leave her alone."

"I actually demanded on everything that you owe. She said that was impossible so I went back to our boss and snitched on her. The boss was so furious that all he wanted was her dead. But it was not that easy. You two were just inseparable."
