Life Is Not Fair

Raymond was confused and frustrated at the same time. This psychologist was more like a psychopath.

"Ms Bradford please stay a little. Keith is a very special problem and only you can solve it," Raymond preached.

Claudia sighed and sat on the couch. Her brother was in school and her wicked Aunt wants money she didn't work for.

Raymond noticed the girls eyes glistening and was surprised but he held himself not to say a word.

The sky had turn dark but there was no sign of her Aunt calls or message and she felt a little relaxed.

The approaching footsteps made her turn in the direction. She frowned that such a man would be this sick and he's from a wealthy family. A man many ladies wish they could be with not knowing he was suffering from depression.

Claudia stood from the couch and looked at him as he came to stand in her front.

"Good evening Mr Dustin," she said in a low voice.

Keith narrowed his eyes at the girl, Raymond told him the girl was making a fuss and shouting to see him was now acting coquettish.

"Ms Bradford, I heard that you wanted to leave and turned my home into a shouting arena," Keith wasn't friendly with his words.

Claudia gulp and her pupils dilated "I didn't mean to, it just that I had to see my brother in school. My Aunt got this job for me and took the earnings because she takes care of us. I wanted to leave so I could earn a little more for myself and my brother," Claudia said all in one go.

Drake who was standing behind was a little confused at what she was saying.

"You can come and go at anytime, you'll be contacted when needed. For now, you may leave," Keith said and removed his hand gloves.

"Thank you," Claudia was a little happy. She rush out of the mansion.

Keith threw his gloves to Drake, "get me new ones," he said coldly and ascend the stair without looking back.

Drake sighed and look at the beautiful black gloves "Just a day and you're not needed again," he said and threw it inside the trashcan at the corner of the living room.

Raymond stood nervously and his heart kept pounding against his chest every seconds his boss glare at him.

"Watch her and follow her anywhere she goes. Those gizzards must've seen her enter the mansion. Understood?" Keith glared at him.

"Yes boss. Claudia is a good one, she also studied medicine...," Raymond paused when he saw Keith fierce gaze.

"Don't call her name without respect. Be formal! I don't want some lady eyeing the men here," Keith mouthed and pulled his coat from the hanger.

"We're leaving."

Meanwhile, when Claudia got to her Aunt apartment, the woman didn't say a word of refute.

"How's the young master?" She asked Claudia so she could gossip with her friends about it tomorrow.

Claudia knew why she asked. "He's a no nonsense man. Very strong, and unfriendly," she said and head for the door.

"Wait Claudia, you shouldn't be here because the lady of the Dustin family says the psychologist must live with him incase of necessity," said her Aunt.

"I'm not going back there until when I'm needed. He personally said that...,"

"That's how he behaves Claudia. Obey the lady and live with him. Oh... I heard he's a mafia," her Aunt chuckled wickedly.

Claudia understood the underlying meaning of what her Aunt said. If she misbehaves, he's going to kill her for sure and that sent cold shivers down her spine.

"What about my brother? How will he be able to live without me?" Claudia asked as her voice cracked.

The middle aged woman smiled sarcastically, she now found a way to threaten this stone head girl.

"You'll do as I say then he'll be alright," she said and scowl at Claudia before entering her room.

Claudia felt a pang in her chest. Her brother was the reason she was working to make ends meet so she would be able to care for him when he has finished with his 6th grade education.

She wants to take in her brother but her Aunt always threatens her because she doesn't have enough money to feed both of them in a week not to talk of throughout.

Claudia sniffed and walk out of the apartment and the building. Her tears she had been holding since the morning were now falling as she walk through the less busy streets.

Life hasn't been fair to her. The apartment she lives in isn't free, she had to pay house bills and lots of bills because of the damned greedy landlord. Feeding herself alone was a serious problem and yet... her Aunt doesn't care.

She was crossing to the other side of the street and failed to notice a speeding car. Her thoughts occupied her mind, even when the car horn was honked she didn't notice.

"Stop the damn car you fool!" Raymond shouted at the driver and look at the rear seat where Keith was sitting.

Claudia walk passed the car absentmindedly and even the driver and Keith were dumbfounded.

Raymond paused and looked back again but this time, the glare was sharp as frost. "Drive the car, idiots," Keith rubbed his temples and he wondered if Raymond has a brain.

What piqued his interest most was the crying girl. He had noticed it when she was explaining why she was shouting.

Keith lean against the seat and closed his eyes. He couldn't take his eyes of her and now, she was crying and almost got hit by a car. In his perspective, she was thinking.

"Raymond do an investigation on the psychologist," Keith ordered.

Raymond nodded "Yes boss." He also saw what happened.
