I arrived at home minutes later and went straight to my room, digging through my stuffs, I find my stash of drugs, I take a handful chugging it down my throat when I felt a force behind me, making my spit it all out.

"What the hell Jason, so what you were going to leave me too?" Anna came at me, even she looked like a mess, god we were both a mess, this wasn't the time.

"Stay away from me, I mean it." I replied in a hoarse tone.

"No am not leaving, why did you go back?, what is so important that you want to kill yourself?" she asked me, god was she so innocent, being with me was the death of her, and I knew it.

"I'm too broken for you Anna, you don't need this right now," I simply say to her sitting on the edge of my bed.

"What are you saying to me?" She asked all teary.

"I'm saying that it's over. I can't do this to you anymore. " I finally say, I felt my heart crushing inside of me, but I knew it was for the best, we both needed to figure out what we wanted and who we are.

"No you're kidding, right, tell me you are, I can't lose you too." she came tugging at my shirt, I couldn't bare to see her crying, but I also wanted seeing her happy "please Jason don't do this."

"Annabelle just LEAVE," I pushed her off, she was shocked by my reaction, watching her I wanted to stop her and tell her I still love you Annabelle, but I knew this was for the best, she took to heels and left me sitting there, I could hear her sobbing down the stairs, I've been such a fool, I just hope I get through this. Lying back down on the bed I cried myself to sleep, waiting for my fate too.

Annabelle's POV
"How many times do I have to tell you, it's too slanty to the left, I need it at right," I complained at the organisers.

Everything was so wrong, two hours later and we're still here, everything was not going to plan, I look around at the house and realise everything is so wrong, the Chad blocks I got was set wrong, the light show I decided to put on didn't go as plan, I needed everything perfect right now. I take a step forward to the catering section, the food looks good, but there's something about the man  making the cocktail, I can't deal with this.

It was the day of Chad's summer album release, all the biggest musical icons would be present, I sent the invitations weeks ago, and today is the day but everything looks so wrong, he's out with friends but he'll be back soon, so I needed everything to be perfect, I turn to my assistant Kelly before heading up to stairs.

"Fix this, right now." I stated before leaving, I could hear her murmuring, but I can't deal with her now.

I go into my room, my back facing the door I let out a sigh before walking to the bathroom, I let the sink run through while I sat there crying my eyes out, my life is a complete mess, most people think I have it all, but I don't, so yes I have one of the biggest fashion company, long story I decided to go into fashion shortly after Ashley passing, we had to move, but we decided to stick to california still just a bit far, Ashley, well she always had a passion for that, so I dedicated my first line of dresses to her, when I first launched, it wasn't all that at first, since I was still in college, I was going with "Ash beauty" but after college I settled down and renamed, apparently a brand already had that and that's how "Belle's enterprise" came about, I really miss her though even after all those years, it's like she's still here, every Christmas was a painful reminder of Ash's passing, mom and dad tried to make it fun, but it just wasn't the same. Now I'm my own person, yet they always insist on coming to my place for the holidays.

David is now eight years, and he's still a menace, always causing havoc when they come through, breaking things around and it's irritating, god am I not having kids, mostly after they go I have to replace everything, no big deal, but the thought of my house being tarted disgust me, I just hope he'll behave tonight, my parents insist they come, something about him getting to know his only sister.

Standing up, I wipe my tears, and reach for the towel and dry my face off, retouching my makeup a bit, I make my way downstairs directly to the man working the cocktail bar, there's just something about him and I need to fix it, making my way I could see Kelly's terrified face, luckily she handled everything so am not here for her.

"You!" I snapped my fingers at him "I don't like your face, so during the party try to go unnoticed, can you do that?" I roll my eyes at him.

"Uhmm," he started stammering.

"Yes he will, don't worry," Kelly cuts in from behind.

"Did I ask for your opinion?" I look at her from head to toe, studying her looks,  she was wearing a milk cardigan and a black skirt, it was from my line quite alright, but that's not how it goes "you're not planning wearing that." I stated rather than a question.

"But," she looks at herself before pausing "I'll go change." she added.

"Don't bother, guests will be here soon, just try to lay low, you can join him," I pointed at the cocktail man, she seem a little bit tense but I ignored it, suddenly the doorbell rang, dismissing them both, I made my way to the security camera, it was Maddie and Alex, I quickly put in the pass code and let them in.

"If it isn't the soon to be Mr and Mrs walker." I greeted with a smile reaching for a hug.

"Look at this place, I didn't know you had it in you, Chad is going to go crazy, you really did all this for him that's so sweet," Maddie complimented "I need a snack." she quickly dropped her bag with Alex and made her way to the drinks bar.

"So How are you doing?" Alex added slowly studying me.

"Am good, why even ask?" I replied uncomfortably, Alex and I are kinda friends I'd say but, sometimes I think he's only here because of Maddie, Daniel moved to England for his basket ball career, we still keep in touch but he's hardly here, wonder when he'll be playing here, I keep reminding him it's his home town, it's all our home town and it holds a place in all our hearts, probably why we all haven't moved even after college.

"Your eyes are really red right now. Maddie might have not notice but, I did you've been crying again," he cut me off.

"If you'll excuse me, more people are coming," I put my face down, how did he notice, I could have swore I tried to make it unnoticeable, I headed to the mirror by my door, I had mirrors installed almost every where I turn just in case, and let's not forget my mirror room, I go there every once a while just to admire myself. Dragging my feet I went to the snack bar to meet Maddie.

"Can you help me attend to the guest, I need to go change?" I asked.

"No problem." she was obviously not even listening, the music was already playing and all she was doing was eating mostly.

"SAVE SOME FOR THE GUESTS!" I tried to be audible.

"WHAT I CAN'T HEAR YOU!?" she took a bit out of a shrimp kebab.

"Never mind," I walked away to go get ready, this is going to be a long night.

Jason's POV
"We have a meeting tonight sir." my little sister came through my room door, trying to mock me.

"Really funny Emm," I walk up to her, she jumped up to hug me, she just got back from school for the summer break, it was her second year in college " officially a sophomore huh?" I teased.

"Very funny, how you doing, hope you don't miss me much?" she looked around examining the room "you look lost, must be lonely huh?"

"No actually am going out tonight," I lied, she was right actually even since our dad passing shortly after my mom, it was just a year between and that completely cut me off my crazy teenage years, I had to take care of my sister all on my own and my dads company was immediately thrown unto me, I couldn't do it all so my granpa handled it through out law school for me, after that I resumed fully and now I run it all on my own, it's actually hard running a full company plus I had my own law firm,  so it wasn't easy, Emma is eventually going to have to take over, but for now I'll try to handle it. Granpa still helps but, mostly when there's a clash in meetings and other problems, but am doing good.

"Really where to?" She raised an eyebrow at me.

"None of your business, don't you have something to do, other than bugging me." I stood up abruptly.

"Nah, I need to go shower and eat then sleep," she replied heading to her room, I followed her out heading to the kitchen.

We still stayed at our place we actually never moved, so we had a lot of free rooms in the house, am really surprise how Emm handled everything well, better than I ever did I tried to kill myself last I recall, a night I definitely hate reliving I lost everything that day, and am still regretting it. I decided to grab a bottle of orange juice, I've been staying clean for six years now and it has been challenging.

'Emm you good?, I'm stepping out," I call out, but there's no answer, I immediately panicked, this wasn't a good sign, I immediately rushed to her room but she wasn't there that's when I hear the tap running,  oh she's in the bathroom.

"What are you doing here pervert?" she came out in her towel.

"That was quick," I added.

"I've not gone yet, what do you need?" she faced me looking pissed.

"I'm heading out, I was just checking." I turned to go, obviously am not needed here.

"Whatever," she mouthed before banging the door at me, I just don't get her at times, sometimes she's happy others she's being mean, I'll say it's my fault too, I need to remember she's an adult now time really flies she's already twenty, that's like mature adult, I just wish she acts like it, guess it runs in the family, she's acting like me just glad even at that she's off drugs. I remember me going in and out like that with dad who knew he'd be gone too, I remember the night it happened.

Flashback

"I can't deal with you anymore Jason, you can't keep doing this," my dad came at me yelling to my face, I just have one party and he flips.

"Dad chill it's just one party." I blow the smoke of my pot at him.

''That's it, I don't care what am setting you're moving out tonight and I don't care where you go or do,"  he drags me off the couch, I was staying super chill right now but this man is trying to piss me off, I stand up and make my way up the stairs but he had to stop me. "Where do you think you're going?, leave now," he demanded "I can't deal with your attitude." he stood right by me.

Using my elbow I jab him by the side, but I guess I should have thought it through, he slipped and fell down the stairs, he stopped by the last stairs banging his head by the tiles he started bleeding immediately.

"DAD?, DAD?" I run to him, using my hands to support his head "Emma call 911," I call my sister who couldn't believe her eyes "am so sorry, I didn't mean to am really sorry," tears already forming in my eyes.

"It's okay son, it's not your fault." he managed to say, using my hands I lift him up and pulled him to the door.

"What happened?" Emma came at me but I wasn't listening to her at the moment.

End of flashback

Later that week he was pronounced dead, turns out it wasn't the hit that caused his death,  he had a heart attack the previous night, one of the nurses confused his medications, of course my grandparents had her put behind bars, but I still keep blaming myself for it, I'm just glad we managed to fix things through before he left.

Making my way to the door I received a text message from the office, what again.
