CHAPTER 3

After spending some minutes in traffic, Michael finally got home. He had been seriously thinking of Chelsea when he was driving home. He never thought of meeting Chelsea on the ferry, but he saw her, he was really surprised but what made him happy to some extent was the fact that she gave him an audience and she showed him some love even though she turned down his request. Michael felt he had really done something wrong to Chelsea but at the same time he had no option then when he left the town. After brainstorming on the whole issue, he drove into the garage to get the car parked. He moved out of the car and he went to the entrance of the garage to close the gate. It was already late in the night and he was very tired. He moved into the house from the back door with the thought of getting a quick shower and a good sleep. He moved into his room without saying a word to anyone at home. His parents and brothers were at home, but they were in the living room waiting for him to come before they have their dinner. He deliberately switched off his cell phone because he was not in the real mood to talk to no one. When he got to his room, he dropped the car key on the shelf and went straight to the bathroom. He pulled off his cloth and stepped into the Jacuzzi to get a shower. After taking a shower, he felt relaxed and all the thoughts he had on his mind had reduced. He changed into his pyjamas preparing to go to bed but as he was about to lie on the bed, he heard a knock on his door. He refused to open the door and pretended like he didn’t hear anything at all. To his greatest surprise, the person at the door said, “Michael! I hope all is well with you. I saw you when you drove and since then we have been waiting for you on the dining table”. It was his Dad’s voice, Joseph Olsen. Michael had no choice than to open the door for his Dad, he really loves his Dad and he respects him so much. He never knew someone was watching him when he came in. When he opened the door, his Dad saw the way his look was. Michael looked worried and that show on his face. His Dad asked him what was wrong, but he refused to tell him what was going wrong. Joseph persuaded him to join them on the dining table in order to have dinner so that he would be able to think and talk about something else. He promised his Dad he will join them soon on the dining table. Joseph left his room with the expectation of seeing him in few minutes. Few minutes later, Michael decided to join his parents and brothers on the dining table. Joseph didn’t tell anyone he was with Michael inside. When he entered the dining room, everyone else except Joseph was amazed to see him; they never knew he was inside. Michael greeted his Mum, Margaret Olsen and he gave her a peck on her cheek. He also greeted his two brothers before having his seat. His food had already been served. Lawrence, his elder brother had been watching him since he entered the dining room. Michael still looked worried and that can be read on his face. Joseph said the Lord’s Prayer before they started eating. Michael was not eating as he used to eat. Margaret, his Mum was the one that first noticed that as he was not eating as he used to. She then asked him what went wrong. Margaret’s thought was that Michael didn’t have an appetite, which was why he wasn’t eating as he used to be. Michael’s response was that nothing was wrong with him. Lawrence then replied him and said, “I have been watching you came in, but I just decided to keep quiet. I know Dad can see that too” “It’s nothing really serious. I saw Chelsea on the ferry today and I gave her a ride home. I think I am in love with her again after all, we didn’t break up before I left the town. I actually asked her to go out with me tonight, but she turned me down, and I know it was all because of what I did” Michael explained what was bothering him. “To be sincere with you all, I really want us to continue from where we started but I really owe her a lot of explanation if I want that to happen” He continued. Lawrence chuckled and replied him, “Michael, this is not the ideal time for this. You just have to focus on the campaign and forget about Chelsea for now. You really have to put your mind together and let bygone be bygone” Joseph also added to what Lawrence had said and told him, “Renewing your relationship with Chelsea will raise too many questions and that will bring about something else. Personally, I feel you should do what your brother had said, focus on the campaign for now and let bygone be bygone” “Focusing on the campaign will do us better than continuing your relationship with Chelsea. I know you really love her but in order not to cause yourself any trouble, you just have to let things be for now and focus on the campaign” Mathew added. “Baby, I know how it feels to be in love and on the other hand, you shouldn’t use that as an opportunity to bring problems to your life. Chelsea’s parent will really want to know why you left the town when Emily died and I don’t think you have any genuine reason to say to them” Margaret advised. “Hmm! Thank you all for your piece of advice and I will try and make the best out of it. I know the things this will cause because Chelsea herself had already asked why I left the town then” Michael replied them all and thanked them for the piece of advice. Deep down in Michael, he knew they were very right but he just wants to make things right with Chelsea. It was just like love at first site when he saw her on the ferry. Michael really finds it difficult to forget about Chelsea, and with the look of things, he just can’t let that go. The whole family finished their meal and every one of them went straight to their bedroom to sleep. Michael was about to shut his door when he saw his Dad, Joseph approaching his room. He was very surprised to see his Dad again in his room. He let him entered before shutting the door. Joseph sat on the chair while Michael sat next to him. He said to him, “Son, I really understand you and this can happen to anyone in love. Chelsea is a good girl and I like her too, but you have to let her be for now simply because of her family and what they will say to you when they see you two together. The election is fast approaching and you just have to focus on the campaign so that things will go on smoothly. Think about it and let me know your final decision by tomorrow” Joseph stood up and left Michael’s room. Michael looked disturbed with the way things are. He was quite shocked with what his Dad just said. He gently shut the door as his Dad left his room and told him “Good Night” as he was leaving. He then lay on his bed and fell asleep as he was thinking of what to do.

CHAPTER 4

The next morning, Chelsea woke up early. It’s been a long she had gone for jogging, she then decided to jog on that very morning in order to cool off her mind and get back to her normal body shape. She stood up from her bed and moved to the bathroom in order to brush up her teeth and get ready for the morning jog. After brushing up her teeth, she pulled off her pyjamas and put on her jogging kit. She grabbed her earpiece and her phone and started playing her favourite songs. It was around 6 am in the morning. She started jogging around the neighbourhood along a popular path listening to her favourite songs. She had gone far from home and had promised herself to be back in one and a half’s time. As she was jogging along the popular path, she ran into Georgina, a lady in the neighbourhood who was also jogging along the popular path. Georgina used to live in the Cape before Chelsea got to the Cape. She was more or less like an enemy to Chelsea. Georgina used to be a friend, but she was one of those friends that always mock people around. Whenever she sees Chelsea, she always makes her feel like an outsider who doesn’t belong to the Cape. Georgina never fails to remind her that she was able to live on the Cape due to the fact that her mother married Colin Doherty, who was a wealthy man on the Cape. She will continue by saying that Chelsea won’t be able to have access to the social circles she is now if not for that. Chelsea tried her possible best by brushing Georgina off, but she got taunts when Georgina made mention of Michael. Georgina tried to provoke her by saying, “Michael and I have become best of friends since he had come back on the Cape. He is a very good person and fun to be with, moreover, he is good in bed too”. Georgina had always wanted Michael from the start, even before Chelsea came on the Cape but unfortunately for her, Michael did not like her at all. She lied about what she just told Chelsea, but Chelsea won’t know she was just lying. Chelsea got stung when she heard this but refused to let Georgina know about it. She didn’t let that show on her face. She wondered why Michael will stoop so low to go out with Georgina when he knows how Georgina hates her. She felt bad about it but at the same time, she was glad as she turned down the date with him. She realized that this is the perfect time for the two of them to move on. They both went on the different ways along the popular path. Georgina continued with her jogging and so do Chelsea. Georgina’s look seems not to be happy because she didn’t notice Chelsea was angry or jealous about what she said which was actually a lie. Chelsea never thought of it again, she just continued with her jogging and she put back her earpiece into her ears. After completing her jogging for that morning, she went back home to prepare for the day’s work. She didn’t really have anything else to do on that day simply because she came to rest for the main time at home. Her Mum has been looking for her, but she later realized she must have gone out to jog because she had been doing that before even before she left for school. She used to keep herself fit and also to maintain her body shape. Chelsea is actually a pretty lady who has a slim and sexy body. She is tall but not too tall, has a red lip and the figure weight curve is very obvious when seeing afar. She was the prettiest on the Cape and this is actually one of the reasons why Georgina used to mock her. When she got home, he met her Mum in the kitchen making breakfast; she decided to join her in the kitchen. She opened the fridge and brought out a bottle of milk so that she can cool off the stress. She greeted her Mum and her Mum responded with a question,” What took you so long?”  “I saw Georgina in the way and she got me talking. I really don’t know her problem; she started talking about Michael and all that” Chelsea answered. “Really! You mean the same, Georgina. Don’t mind her, she talks a lot” Antonia replied. “She said she had become a very close friend with Michael and she even talked about how good Michael is in bed” Chelsea replied. Antonia chuckled and said, “She must be joking about that, she really wants you to hate him, but I think that should not bother you. Michael is a good man and I am sure he can’t do that, but you just have to keep your distance from him because I don’t want you two together again” “You mean Michael can’t do that?” Chelsea asked “Yes, I know he is not the type but because, with the look of things, you should just try and keep your distance from him” Antonia replied. “I know he is a good man, but I don’t really know what to do next” Chelsea replied. I will try and keep my distance from him. Thank you for your advice Mum” Chelsea gave her Mum a hug and they continued preparing their breakfast.

CHAPTER 5

Georgina was on her way home thinking of the conversation she had with Chelsea. She was not really happy for not getting any response from her despite the fact that she talked to her in a bad manner. She even went to the extent of telling lies against Michael. Georgina then decided to meet the killer on her way home. She stopped jogging and decided to take a walk to the killer’s house. On her there, she thoughts of what to say to the killer, as she was going, her first thought was to tell the killer to kill Chelsea too, but that will be too soon and that people might quickly know the cause of her death because she and Chelsea just had a discussion. Chelsea must have conveyed the message to someone else at home, so it will be too soon to have Chelsea eliminated. Georgina was actually doing all this because of the love she had for Michael. She doesn’t really know the approach to take, but all she wants is to eliminate Chelsea on the Cape. When she got to the killer’s house, she didn’t even knock on the door before she entered. As she entered, she saw the killer sitting on a couch in the living room. She quickly approached the killer and sat beside the killer. The killer was surprised to see Georgina, the killer then asked what she was doing and she told the killer she have come for two things. One, she wants to give the killer some information about Chelsea and Michael, and two, she feels horny, she needs sex. The killer was surprised to hear that from Georgina. The felt reluctant to give her the second thing she requested for, but she shut the killer’s mouth up by putting her finger on the killer’s lips. Georgina taunts the killer by saying, Michael and Chelsea are now back on the Cape and that it will take some time for them to start talking together again and they will forget all that happened the night Emily disappeared. She explained further by saying, Michael will not have the chance to look at her side again since Chelsea is back on the Cape. The killer responded by saying all will be in control and that necessary action will be taken very soon on the two of them. Georgina then informed the killer that in order to stay silent on the whole matter, she needs to get more money. The killer didn’t hesitate to assure her that she will get more money soon. The killer explained further by telling her that he/she has been preparing to give her more money soon. Georgina was glad to hear this from the killer; she smiled a little and told the killer not to break his promise. She promised the killer she will remain silent forever if he/she continues giving her the money she requests for. After their discussion about Michael and Chelsea and about the money Georgina asked for, Georgina started pulling off her dress. She sat on the killer’s lap and they started kissing even though the killer was not really ready to do that but he/she just wants to please Georgina for the last time before knowing what to do on her case. After kissing and caressing each other, they started having sex. The killer and Georgina happens to be bisexual, they have sex with both man and woman. Georgina started groaning as they were having sex and she was asking for more from the killer. Georgina does not really have a stable sex partner; she sleeps around with anybody she gets a chance to be with whenever she is in the mood. After two-three rounds of sex, the killer got tired and they stopped. Georgina quickly dresses up again and she left the killer’s house. The killer was not really happy with what he just did; he did that to satisfy Georgina before executing the plans he/she has for her. The killer had planned to execute Georgina soon because he/she does not want to be exposed and with Georgina’s presence on the Cape, he/she will be exposed. In fact, the killer thought about Georgina asking for more money in order to keep her mouth shut but he/she does not think he will be able to give her the money she requests for all the time. The killer thought about this and entered into the bathroom to take a shower. Georgina, on the other hand, had reached home; she went straight to the bathroom to have his shower. As she was pulling off her dress, she was thinking about how the killer handled her when they were having sex. After undressing, she entered into the Jacuzzi to have her bath. After some minutes, Georgina came out of the Jacuzzi and she went to her room to dress up. She went to the kitchen to get some food to eat before going out for.
