Florina looked at the necklace on the night stand and rushed towards it.

She picked it up but she noticed how those maids were looking at her weirdly.

"It's mine..."

Florina said judging their stares.

The one maid nodded in understanding.

"Yes sure miss... Actually I found it while cleaning Don's bedroom. I thought it belongs to one of his who___"

The other maid elbowed her giving her a warning glare.

"I mean one of his friends... Glad you found it. Have a nice day..."

She corrected herself and both of them rushed towards the door.

Florina danced in happiness and quickly regretted it due to her ankle.

"Well I think this kidnapping thing finally turned out Good..."

She squealed.

She was about to check the necklace but suddenly the door got opened and she quickly hid it.

"Hey you girl..."

Florina looked at Maria who was standing in the entrance with crossed hands over her chest.

"Come with me..."

Florina's eyes widened, first of all Maria was giving her bitchy vibes with her attitude and she had no idea who Maria is. By her attire she looked quite important person.

"Wait... Why me?..."

Maria rolled her eyes.

"Get some balls girl... Follow me..."

"But Mr. King said I can't leave this room. He will break my legs..."

Florina reasoned.

'It's better to stay in this boring but beautiful room instead of going out with an arrogant girl...'

"Brother is out for work... And if you didn't follow my orders, I'll make sure that brother break your legs even if you didn't leave the room..."

Maria threatened.

'Ohh.. so she is the sister... That explains the attitude...'

Florina rolled her eyes.

'God what does she want now...'

She huffed and followed maria out.

"Stephen told me that you are a news reporter, so you must be good with handling the camera right?... Recording and photography all that shit..."

Maria lead her towards the garden and Florina's mouth hanged open looking at all those beautiful flowers. It felt like she is in another world.

Maria was silently judging florina's expressions. She lead her in the garden after passing by their luxurious mansion, huge paintings, expensive chandeliers, showcases and what made her more excited was a garden.

"Back to earth garden fairy..."

Maria snapped her fingers in front of her.

Florina cleared her throat and gave her full attention to Maria.

"Yes I am good with cameras, who is Stephen by the way..."

"The one who injected you last night..."

Maria replied fiddling with some stuff which was kept on the table in the middle of the garden. The weather was cloudy and cool making the day pleasant.

"I want you to click some pictures of my plants and flowers..."

'Why is she asking me... She can hire the best photographer of the country with all the money she has...'

Florina looked at her suspiciously.

Maria sighed looking at her expressions.

"My photographer can't come... Don't know whom he is fucking. I don't have time to look for another one, I have to send these pictures to my client in a few hours..."

"Ohh, okay... I can do it. It's been long since I have clicked some good pictures..."

Florina looked quite excited. Her work was her passion and she was good at it. It makes her happy.

"Good... Here is the camera."

Maria flashed her a fake smile handing her the camera.

"You can be a little polite you know..."

Florina took the camera from her.

"I can but I don't like girls like you... All sweet and sugar coated. I hate it. It looks so fucking fake..."

Maria scowled.

Florina stared at her for a moment.

'What's her fucking problem...'

Florina could sense the hint of irritation in Maria. She used to be just like her when she lost her parents and because of this she lost her few friends as she started staying alone but when she found her passion in the camera, telecast, searching for news and bringing something spicy to the table she let her grief go and embraced her lovely life. The death of her parents was the biggest turn in her life.

'Maybe she is just lonely...'

Florina sighed looking at Maria who was doing something on her laptop.

Florina started clicking pictures of the flowers and plants. She asked for Maria's help a few times and realized she was right. Maria wasn't that bad, maybe frustrated but not bad.

They were so engulfed in clicking pictures that they didn't realized that they spent the whole day in the garden. The sun has already started setting down leaving the sky filled with beautiful colors. Florina clicked some pictures of that too.

"Why do you look so stressed?..."

Florina asked taking a bite of her chicken nuggets. They were done with their work and now eating their dinner.

"I am just alone you know..."
