Beck's POV
I thought just watching these two would be enough amusement for my idle day but then Mrs Makeila came to offer a surprise visit clad in a navy blue and white dress with an elegant demeanour making things a bit more interesting for me
Her green eyes were wide as a deer in headlights at the scene before her; her son being spoon fed by a girl she didn't know in an intimate way.
"oh hi mum" Andre said calmly at his mum even though I could tell he was slightly taken aback by her presence while Camille on the other hand looked like she was going to pass out In a few seconds making my mouth the word "busted" at her
"H_hi dear,um are" his mum stuttered over her words with her perfect brows scrunched
"its good to have you here mum" Andre stated as he wrapped her in a warm hug
"It's good to see you love,I heard what happened" she said gently rubbing her gloved hands on his back before holding his face gently with both hands as she searched his face "everything?" he asked nervously not looking at her
"Well let's say a briefing as a certain someone here was sparing my mental health according to him" she explained directing a playful glare at me making me chuckle
"Well,I appreciate he did that" Andre stated giving me an appreciative look, I'd left out a lot from what I told Mrs Makeila....like the part Oriena attempts weren't once but on several occasions and the fact he fell sick every time because of it,she didn't deserve me holding back but I did because of Andre cause he wouldn't want her precious little image built by his mother to be completely shattered.
"That brat,how could she still come onto you when you were sick and now she almost triggered a relapse" his mom spat with annoyance in her tone and her eyes gleaming with a green fire
"I'm doing better mum, promise"
"And I believe you and I'll be here for a week to ensure that" she chirped finally looking at Camille who had sat quietly the whole time
"why hello dear,I'm Annika" she said softly as she walked up to her with heels clicking softly
"Good evening ma'am" Camille squeaked standing up from her seat
"what's your name?"
"Camille Morgan ma'am"
"A beautiful name for a very beautiful girl"
Camille practically blushed at her praises making Andre and I chuckle. . . I'll admit I was fond of her.
"Thank you, you're absolutely gorgeous yourself"
"Gua sha, detox and peace of mind will do that for you" she said as she flipped her brown hair dramatically earning a chuckle from Camille
"Is she your new girlfriend Dre?" Mrs Makeila asked over her shoulder looking at Andre leaning at the door post
"Mum!" he whined putting a hand over his face
"Is she your friend?"
"She is"
"Is she taken?"
"No"
"Hopefully we're getting there" she mumbled enough for us all to hear
"Well darling,I'll leave you to it" she chirped as she walked up to me
"Mind helping me get groceries for dinner?"
"I'll go get my keys" with a smile she followed behind me not before giving the Andre and Camille a once over
"They're so adorable together" she whispered to me as I looked back to see Camille once again feeding him oats which he didn't hesitate to take earning a bright smile from her which her mirrored back with eyes sparkling like polished emerald
"They are"

7:27pm
Camille's POV
"Gurl,I'm not even joking" I giggled as I took out my cornrows sitting in front of my vanity mirror
"How did his mum react?" Lucy asked giddily waiting for my reply "wellll, she was super chill and sweet about it"
"No way"
"Yes way, she even called me beautiful"
"Sis,she definitely wants In the family and I'm here for it"
"Slow down Luce,she just seems like a very warm person" I said with a chuckle as I combed the loose section of my hair
"Tell me,she didn't mistake you for Andre's girlfriend?" Lucy drawled
"She actually did or probably teasing"
I mean me? Andre Makeila's girlfriend
"Same difference" she stated making me roll my eyes
"I'm not doing this with you" I said with a yawn as I packed my hair care basket putting my phone in my pocket heading to the bathhouse at the back of the mansion,I preferred washing my hair there whenever I didn't go to a salon.
"Fine,I'll drop it but I'll pick right back up soon enough" she said with a promise
"Till then,talk tomorrow Luce...wash day is calling"
"Its literally to eight so it's a wash night" she explained matter of factly making me sigh with a smile "fuck you seriously"
"That'll be Makeila's job soon enough,byeee" and she ended the call,I literally scoffed in bewilderment at her statement but I couldn't ponder further when I felt a chill run down my spine.
Turning to the windows I saw a red light blinking right at me,when I looked closer through I saw a drone just right outside of the bath house and it was watching me.
We don't own drones
I panicked and as quickly as I saw it,it was gone.
The drone was watching me, someone was watching me....but who?
What could anybody possibly gain from watching me,just the thought of it made me a little scared. I was being watched by someone and only God knows who!
"I need to get out of here" I mumbled to myself speeding up my roughly one hour hair care routine to a solid twenty minutes.
I tossed and turned in bed several times with my lace night gown scuffling over my cotton bed sheets, I just couldn't help but think back to the drone and how it zeroed in me as the target. my mind ran the math over and over again to who could do that leaving me with one obviously answer.....Oriena.
My body rolled to the other side with the moonlight reflecting on me like a warm bright blanket
The bitch was crazy and didn't like me so she was my only suspect.
I hope she wasn't doing the same to him..
The thought of her using a drone to watch him made me curl further into my bed holding my pillow tight.
I knew what she was capable of and this had her perfect fingerprints written all over this whole scenario.
After all,we used to be best friends too....
