SURVIVING THE ORDEALS

True colour

Then Anny headed towards that direction and grabbed her by the shoulder. The person's face came into view and it was not Aila. Anny breathed a sigh of relief and she thought,”Who would Aila come here with,even though she lied to me,she could have had her reasons”. Then Anny took her bag and left the drink spot.

*************************************************

Not too far from where Anny was sitting before she left,Aila sat down with Percy. Percy called the waiter to serve them some chilled drinks. “Are you crazy?,why would you choose this kind of location for us to meet?,what if I bump into someone I know?,how would I explain?”Aila asked furiously. “Girl calm down,Are you that scared of your friend…………ohhh, I forgot, you are just her lapdog” Percy said with a smirk on her lips. Aila stood up in fury and said,”It seems as though you are not ready for today's meet up,I am leaving”. Percy chuckled and said,”

Don't forget about what I have in hand,you can leave today,I won't stop you but I know you would be back sooner……………..hmmmm, should I make your friend see your true colors that you are not what she thinks you are? I won't force you,you can leave”.

If looks could kill,Percy would have been long gone. Aila reluctantly sat down back and asked,”What do you want from me?“. Percy laughed hilariously and said,”you are really capable and two-faced”. “What do you mean?“Aila asked.

“Don't try to pretend,you have been receiving my calls since,why didn't you tell your friend about it?……………..You should know the answer yourself” Percy paused and added,”It's because I have some leverages on you,you have managed to fool everyone but not me”

Aila's face changed immediately but she quickly suppressed it and faked a smile, “What do you want?“ She asked.

“Since we have same hatred towards her,why don't we cooperate together?“ Percy offered. Aila sneered and she thought,”it's better to have one boot-licking entity” so she said,”why not”and they shook hands.

Afterwards,Percy asked,”Was the accident your doing”,Aila answered saying,”It wasn't me,I just utilized the opportunity to gain her trust more and it worked”

“I must commend you,you are really vicious,I just wonder how Anny would feel if she hears what you said” Percy said in a happy tone.

“Ohh yes……… I forgot to ask you this,why do you have deep seated hatred towards Anny because I think she treated you well”Percy asked further.

Aila's aura instantly changed and she became extremely different from the initial pitiful girl. Then she said,”Cooperating with you doesn't give you the right to pry,mind your business or you will end up getting killed”. Percy shook in fear and nodded instantly,”Good girl” Aila said and she picked her bag leaving Percy behind.

After Aila left,Percy regained her composure and she cursed Aila inwardly. She took out her phone which she had been initially set on recording mode and she saved the recordings in satisfaction.

Before leaving the spot,Aila turned and saw Percy smiling with satisfaction,”Gloat however you like, you will get eliminated soon because you are just a pawn in this game” She thought.

When Aila unlocked her phone and saw 17 missed calls from Anny,she shook her head wondering about maintaining her facade.
