Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Kim woke up so early . Woke up,? Now that wasn't a proper word to use because she simply didn't sleep the night before. She went to her friend's apartment. Jade. A kind but no sweet girl. She knocked several times. Jade came ready to curse the person knocking, it was still early. Very early . Jade carefully examined her.

"You look homeless." Jade said calmly

"How can I be homeless. I got you " Kim replied. Jade let her in.

"When will you move out?" Jade asked calmly.

"I will be living here until you move out."Kim replied comfortably sitting in the sofa.

"I can't allow." Jade said with a serious look.

" Plus I like living alone." She added.

"We can pay the rent together. It's a lot easier."

" Your time her should,..." Jade shook her head before correcting herself. "Must be short here."

"I didn't hear that." Kim said with a smile.

" Thanks for letting me stay your apartment, Jade."

"Shut your dumb mouth." Jade said helplessly.

Miles went to the RPC company. He then asked where Harvey's Office was. Without knocking or what he immediately entered and sat. Not even bothering to greet . Harvey looked at him for a while.Was this the person he once thought was so displined. He felt too embarrassed.

" Where's Ross? " Miles asked.

"Not here." Harvey answered simply and Miles frowned of course he was seeing that Ross wasn't there. Why give such a stupid answer? "She might have been afraid to meet me." Miles said in a calm tone.

" Why would I be afraid of you? " Ross asked from behind.

Miles then turned to look at her.

"Greetings Ms Wagner."

"Greetings."

Miles was sure that if Kim was there, she

Would have been annoyed to death .

Kim reached at her home. Her mother came to welcome her. They sat in the living room chatting. Luna entered running. She stood in front of her and waved at her. After a moment her mother Christa , looked at her.

"Where did you get that clothes?" Christa asked calmly. Luna and Kim all looked at her but with different facial expressions.Kim looked confused while Luna looked as if she was begging her mother to close her mouth.

"Luna told me , jobless."

Kim and Luna looked at each other for a while.

"You snitch !" Kim said before standing up and Luna run. They run around the house and then Luna run in their room.

" It was a slip of tongue , sister.! I also didn't want to say it. " Luna said aloud.

" I swear if I finally get you, I will skin you alive and make a bag out of it" Kim said aloud angrily

Luna laughed.

" Funny."

They argued for a while.Kim then came back .

"When are going to grow up?"Christa asked in a serious tone.

"Huhh.."

" You're jobless but bought expensive clothes to convince me you're hired....Luna is younger than you but still is about to make a great deal of money."

"I also got a job."

"Of doing what?"

"Not sure."

"????"

Christa then slapped Kim's back.

"Grow up!"

Kim imagined her mother telling her she was a grown up when she was coming home but instead she was being told to grow up instead.

"Fuck." She accidentally said that aloud looking down.. She then realized what she had done and slowly raised her head to look at her mother who was looking at her in disbelief. Christa then smacked her head.

Luna also come and they chatted.

After the weekend was over, she went to work . She was hired as a make up artist.

Luckily she was good with it. Luna also came but they didn't meet much. She also 3 meet with Miles that much too. She was also told that she was the one to do Ross's make up on Wednesday.On her side she didn't like it. But of course some were jealous of her. She was new but was going to do Ross's make up? Other's said it was a blessing. There were other idols who had to get special make up on Wednesday

" Is there a special occasion on Wednesday?" Kim asked a girl close to her out of curiosity.

"There will be an opening ceremony of ' Luxuriant Life' hotel.Those are invited."

" Wow."

At the end of the day, Miles and Kim went home chatting.

"Will you be going at the ceremony?"

" Yeah."

"You will tell me about it."

***

And Wednesday arrived. Luna came and greeted Kim and then went. Kim looked at her watch and realized it was still early and she had no one to do make up for. She looked at her collegees for a moment before deciding to your the company for a while. As she was still walking around, she saw Zay. Zay was standing with a cup of coffee seeming to be searching for something. Zay turned around several times searching.

Kim greeted her as she was passing. Zay then stopped her and handes the coffee to her. Kim was confused.

" Please bring this to Mr Harvey Turnbull."Zay said and quickly went back.

"I do not...." Kim didn't finish to talk as Zay was already gone. Kim then regreted coming there. She asked other workers where Harvey's Office was and they simply told her after hearing that Zay was the one who told her to go there.

She knocked when she reached at the office.

"Come in." Harvey said calmly.

"Hi." Kim greeted.

Harvey then raised his head to see who it was as his secretary never greeted him like that. Kim saw that he didn't replied to her and simply put the coffee on the table. She didn't like to be ignored.

" Please enjoy your coffee." She said turning to leave.

"Where is Ms Anderson?" Harvey asked. Kim wanted to ask if she was her GPS tracker but instead said calmly that she didn't know.

"And what time is it?" Harvey asked again in a very serious tone. Kim checked her watch and saw that the time to do Ross's make up was o8 remaining 2 minutes. Her eyes wiened but said nothing. Stii standing there looking at her watch.

" Where are you supposed to be?" Harvey asked again. Kim looked at him for a while and run out of the office. On her way she met Zay who waved at her saying her thanks.

Kim replied still running,

" You're welcome."

"Zay!"

"Kim!"

Kim reached there finding Ross's and Miles waiting for her .

"Sorry I'm late."Kim said and gestured politely at Ross to sit.

" I really don't want to touch this lady." She whispered to Miles who was calmly standing there with his hands in the pockets.

" Still you are doing it." Miles whispered back. Other workers looked at each other .

Kim did Ross's make up. Ross was originally a beauty. But in addition to the make up. She became more than a beauty. Other make up artist exclaimed. They all looked at Kim telling her how talented she was. It wasn't just a talent. She studied it

Miles looked at her and smiled at her giving thumbs up.

And then off they went to the ceremony.

Ross was wearing an elegant dark blue dress. Miles besides her was wearing a dark red suit. He looked extremely good in it , but was also extremely uncomfortable. He wasn't used of wearing such things.

Other idols there were also dressed elegantly. The ceremony started. The MC stated how the ceremony was planned and then have speech to Richard Collins the owner of 'Luxuriant Life' hotel. Ross and Kim parted ways as Ross had to speak to some rich guys. After like an hour since the ceremony started. Lights in the hotel went off.

The people were panicking. It didn't take many minutes for the lights to come back on. Only two minutes. Richard Collins was missing. They tried to find him. He was found later in the bathroom,DEAD! He was stabbed in almost every part of the body.

The ceremony stopped. The police came and then carefully questioned everyone.

Nathan was one of them. He saw Miles and suspected him. He then walked over to talk him.

" What are you doing here?" Nathan asked him

" Work." Ethan simply answered.

" What work?"

"I have already been questioned."Miles replied calmly. He then saw Ross. " Bye." He told Nathan with a smile and walked to Ross.

" You okay?" He asked simply and Ross simply nodded her head with a smile. Ross had some injures on her knuckles anda scratch on her face.

" What happened to your hand?" Miles asked carefully examining her facial expression .

Ross raised her hand and looked at it calmly.

" None of your business." She answered with a smile and Miles smiled back. What else could he do ?
