MEETING MARIO

HELENA'S POV

My friends and I took a cab and stopped near a grocery store then we walked to a deserted alley behind the grocery store. We see three guys seated on pavement playing cards.

' Excuse me! Tell your boss that F4 is here to see him ' I say. They all stand up and come to us. They bow and one says 'Good morning Ma'am. We have been expecting you. Please come this way' We follow them deeper into the alley and arrive at a huge metal door. The guy does fingerprint scan and the door opens.

The interior was contrasting the unwelcoming exterior. It had a not so costly but elegant design. Seated on a black couch was Mario. He stood up when we entered. He smiled and says 'If it isn't the Ferocious Four. Welcome!'

' Thank you. Like I said I would get my friends.

This is Jedi, OneKill and Blackout.' I say as I introduce Jimmy, Orion and Beverley.

' How funny you are Hurricane. Who doesn't know the four of you in the underworld. It is an honour to work with you.' Mario says.

' First things First. The security here is not good. I could already think of ways to break in without a sound. Replace the metal door with a wooden coloured titanium door. It has a technology scan that will scan and recognise individual DNA before it opens. Then you need to build a sound proof wall around this place and construct an underground passage that leads to the front door.' I tell him.

' Wonderful! As expected from F4. Nothing but the best. All you have said is fine but we are short in liquid here in this territory.' Mario says.

' Blackout I believe you owe me five. Deposit the fifty billion in his account. That will be for the underground passage and construction of the sound proof wall. When that's done, reach out to Blackout and we will start with the door. Like you said earlier, I want nothing but the best. We'll come around and check it out.' I say.

' Of course Hurricane. That will be done.' Mario replies. ' We'll leave now. Till we see again.' I say. ' They don't call me OneKill for nothing. I don't like betrayal. All it takes is one bullet and you die quicker than 5 seconds.' Orion says.

My friends and I leave and heads back to the Astrovana estate.

Adam's POV

I need to control myself. Seriously, I need to hands up to Jimmy and Orion. They are awesome, With such pretty friends that are JUST friends. I try to focus on my lunch when Helena and her friends enter. I dropped my fork on the table. They were all on matching outfits.

Beverley and Helena wore white crop top and black jeans with black jacket and white sneakers with White baseball cap covering their let down hair. Jimmy and Orion wore black T shirt with white jeans and Black sneakers with White jacket and black baseball cap. On their Jacket was written Ferocious Four. Talk about fashion.

' Hi guys!' Helena greeted evere so cheerfully.

' Wow! Each time I think you guys can't get any better, you shock me. What a cute combination! Ferocious Four! I love the name. Little sister, I think you should get me one of those t shirt.' Leo says. That blabbermouth can never shut up.

But he was right, they all looked good.

They sat down at the table and soon Helena's friends started piling food on her plate.

I watched as she tried to get salad but Jimmy swipes it away and gives her salmons instead.

She pouted her lips and stared at him. ' Jimmy! I want salad. You know I like the cream in it ' She complains. ' Listen. My Helena is too thin,if you eat more salad you will become more thinner. I want my Helena to be a bit chubby.' Jimmy tells her lovingly. I just don't understand this Public display of affection. I mean come on, Get a room. Wait! they shouldn't. Aargh! What am I thinking? ' I won't again till I have cream or salad' Helena says. ' Jimmy why don't I sit next to her. She'll behave herself then.' Orion says.

' No No. My Jimmy won't go anywhere. Jimmy tell him that your Helena will sit right next to you ' Helena protests. ' My Helena will sit with me. Helena let me feed you ' Jimmy says.

What the **** ?

' Aiden, Adam and Bianca. What is wrong with you three? Look how they are fighting over Helena. Can't you guys fight for me? Can't you guys pile food on my plate?' Leo says.

This guy really needs a doctor.

' Get a girlfriend then ' I tell him.

' Second brother! Don't say that to Leo. I'll place food on your plate.' Bianca says.

What is she up to?

' This is why Bianca is my favourite. You are the best. I love you.' Leo says. We all stare at him especially Jack. ' What? You guys shouldn't look at me that way. She's my friend. If course I love her. Don't mind me Jack. It's a friendly love ' Leo says. ' Don't mind them. Here have this ' Bianca says as she starts gathering chilli pepper and capsicum and putting on the fried turkey on Leo's plate. Then she pours a huge amount of chilli powder on the plate. She smiles and says ' Bon appetit Leo'

We all burst out laughing except Jimmy. I have never seen that guy smile.

' Boo hoo! This world is so unfair! What kind of friends do I have?' Leo says dramatically.

' Jimmy! I want Big brother's turkey.' Helena says as she points at the over spicy turkey on Leo's plate. ' Ok!' Jimmy says. He grabs the plate and places it in front of Helena. He cuts out a piece. He can't feed that to Helena! I was about to speak when...

' Mr Jennova you can't feed Miss Homerna that.' Aiden says.

Did he actually care?

' Why can't he?' Helena asks.

' Helena didn't you see how much chilli is in that turkey ' Bianca says.

' Don't worry guys. Helena has partial dysgeusia so the taste isn't that spicy to her ' Beverley says.

Oh! ' Each day, I learn new things about you Helena.' I say. She smiled as she stuffs her mouth with the spicy turkey.

After lunch we all leave to prepare for Bianca's pyjama party.

Author's POV

Helena and her friends return to her room. They all freshen up and get out their laptops.

While her friends are busy making arrangements to improve Mario's security, Helena sneaks out with her purse. Her secret stash of snacks were almost finished and she was immensely craving chocolates. She knew Jimmy wouldn't let her have it so she snuck out.

She went to a grocery a little far away from the Astrovana estate. She had just bought the chocolates when she heard crying from the bushes.

' Author! Author! Why is Jimmy so friendly to Helena than others. Answer me! I'm sure readers are on my side.' Leo says.

' Shut up Leo. I am saving that story for chapter 33.' Author replies.

' I want to know now. I'm sure I speak the mind of everyone ' Leo says.

' I also want to know. I am the male lead. I deserve to know why the female lead is unreasonably close to Another male character.' Aiden says.

' I am also the main lead. I deserve to know too. Tell us or we will revolt' Adam says

' Why are you all ganging up against me? Go ask Helena or Jimmy. Why are you all troubling me?'. Author replies.

' Well. The male character you created will not let us 3 feet close to Helena and his glare can roast me. You need me in this book. I am every readers dream. Handsome, Rich, Funny. So you need to tell us.' Leo argues.

' I think that everyone are probably crushing on the people at the book's cover. They can only imagine how you look like. Only Aiden, Beverley, Orion, Jimmy, Helena and I are on the cover' Adam says.

' Well we are not arguing about that. We are here to jointly harass the author!. Tell us! What is going on between Jimmy and Helena.' Leo says.

' Fine Fine Fine! You guys will find out at the pyjama party.' Author says.

' And when will that be?' Aiden asks.

Author curses silently. ' The next chapter ' Author says.

' Helena do you want roasted or fried chicken?' Jimmy says. ' I want both' Helena replies excitedly. Jimmy feeds her chicken. Helena pinches his cheek and says ' I love you Jimmy!'

' I love you too' Jimmy replies.

' YOU CAN'T FLIRT WITH THE FEMALE LEAD! ' Aiden and Adam says.

' This is too much for my single heart ' Leo says.

Author sighs.

This crew will be the death of her.
