CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR (Uncover)

"Why do you want to get us into trouble?" Mr Julian asked after Miss Emelda secretly dragged him away from little Kyla cake cutting.

"I needed to inform you about something urgent." She replied, looking worried.

"Tell me." She nodded and told him of her suspicion.

"I don't think Mylar is giving Camila the right drugs anymore."

Only after hearing this did Mr Julian give her his full attention.

"And why would you think that?" He asked, his mind beginning to fill with different thoughts at the moment.

"Camila is beginning to act differently, she speaks more nicely to me and is behaving normally as if there's nothing wrong with her. I need you to please look into this." She kept quiet fidgeting and continued talking again.

"You know that if you do not do anything about this then everyone will find out about our plan of running Camila completely mad."

Bang! They heard a sound at the door and the both of them went mute and stood still. They heard a rattling sound this time around and Mr Julian quickly went to check what it was, he found a little toy car by the door.

"Who was it?" Miss Emelda asked after he came back, he gave the toy car to her and she asked surprised.

"A toy car?"

"Yes, that's what I saw outside. Maybe it's for one of those little kids some of the guests brought." Mr Julian replied.

"Should we be worried?" Miss Emelda asked looking concerned.

"I don't think so but I will look into it." Mr Julian replied and left the room.

The party went on smoothly until late in the night, the guests started leaving one after the other with a gift bag and toy boxes for their kids.

Mylar went to the storage room to get more toy boxes and when she arrived there, she heard some sounds in the storage room.

It sounded like someone was checking through the things in there without the lights on.

"Must be a thief." She thought to herself and picked up a bass ball bat she found in the hallway. She slowly opened the door, quietly tiptoeing into the store room with the bat behind her.

She saw the person's shadow on the wall with the help of a little light shinning through an opening on the wall. She slowly went behind him, carefully using her hands to feel the things in the way.

When she got behind the figure, she brought out the bat before her, raised it up and landed it on the head of the person.

The person fell hard and screamed, holding the head in pain.

"Who are you?" Mylar asked yelling at him. When she saw that he didn't reply, she yelled.

"If you do not speak now, I will hit you again this time harder than the first."

Grhhd!!! The man tried to speak but Mylar heard nothing but rubbish coming out of his mouth.

"Will you speak or not?" She yelled and tried to hit him again but he raised his hands up in submittion to her.

She allowed him to get up into a sitting position and then she bent down before him and asked.

"Who the hell are you?"

"My name is Juan Jose." The man replied, he was shaking from the immense pain and he head was pounding hard.

"Juan Jose? And who is Juan Jose suppose to be?" Mylar asked, she noticed the man was not harmful. He looked rather pitiful.

He didn't reply her and bent his head.

"Wait, you look kinda familiar." Mylar asked after turning on the light. After saying that, she suddenly gasped.

"You are.... You are that man that has been going after me. I keep seeing you around." She then picked up her bat again and pointed it at his face.

"Why do you keep going after me?" She asked him with a deep voice, she was trying to scare him but he didn't look scared at all. He only apologised to her and then explained himself.

Mylar listened attentively and when he finished explaining, she finally saw why he was going after her, he just wanted her to help him out. She went outside and locked the door after her.

She went into the kitchen and brought out some food, then she sneaked back to the storage room with the foods. She gave the food to him, he thanked her and she left the room.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" Camilo asked as he hugged her from behind, she was scared that he might have caught her but she heaved sigh of relief after what he said next.

"I wanted you and I to be alone but you keep going around working." He pushed his mouth forward as if he was really upset and Mylar smiled.

"Where do you want us to go?" She asked him, he smiled and wispered to her.

"Let's go to our room, we have a lot of things to do."

She quickly followed him, she hoped that no one would go to the storage room for the entire day.

Vida!!! Elio called out to Vida who was busy packing all the mess the kids who came to the party made. She turned around and smiled at him.

"You've been working all day, why don't you rest and let the workers handle it." Elio said to her.

"I am almost done." She said and continued with what she was doing, Elio went to her and grabbed her hand. He took her away despite her refusal.

Mylar! Camilo called lovingly.

"Hmm." Mylar replied, she was laying on his legs as he sat down on the bed.

"Today is the happiest day of my life." Camilo confessed.

"Is it?" Mylar asked, she liked the peaceful atmosphere.

"Yes." He replied and tried to move her head before she got up by herself. He looked at her lovingly, his eyes sparkling. A new warmth and desire walking through him, he moved closer to her and stared into her eyes.

He moved his right hand on her face until he got to her ear and he used his hand to move her sliky blonde hair away from her face and moved his face closer to her, he kissed her lips gently.

More deeply, his lips pressed onto hers and his hand slid through her hair. After several minutes of that continous movement, he moved away with a smile on his face, she smiled back.

This wasn't because she was pretending but this smile was because of her long time longing for Camilo. She had liked him since he started being nice to her. His attentions made her feel important.
