Chapter 1

Bethel's(Yohanna's) POV:

"I'M Sorry Hanna but we have to let you go" I stared long and hard at Mr Flick my boss as he finished his speech.

"Sorry can you repeat that sir?" I asked not to sure I heard what he said right.

"Hanna" he sighed "you're fired"

With those two words I glared at him harder.

"Wait soo just like that, I'm fired?!" I asked with rage and disbelieve.

"N- - -" Before he could utter another word I interrupted him.

"Just because I wouldn't make my skirt shorter or I wouldn't open my God given legs for you, you're firing me?!?" I screamed this time. Not having a single care in the world if the other employees heard me.

When Mr Flick called me into his office sure I was expecting him to make another pass at me but definitely not this. Him firing me wasn't expected.

"You know what, this job wasn't even worth what I worked for, plus the pay is incredibly shitty, so you don't have to bother yourself I'll resign gladly!"

And with that I stormed out of his office heading straight to my desk or would I say former desk in the God forsaken firm, to get my things. I could feel the number of eyes that were on me but I couldn't care less at the moment.

And as I was making my way to the exit door of the firm I remembered something. And just for dramatic effect I shouted.

"And to all you sad fucks that didn't bother to learn my correct name, the name is 'Yohanna' not 'Hannah' " And Finally with my middle finger up in the air I exited the firm.

.................................

That was six days ago, and now I'm officially without a job. Sure looking for a job wasn't going to be a difficult thing for me with the kind of resume I had but I just wasn't ready to look for a job at the moment.

"Bethel! Bethel! Are you even listening to me?" My friend Rina asked shaking me. Oh I forgot she was here.

"Yh of course I am, who do you take me for?" I said feigning I was offended. But then she gave that look, the look that says 'stop lying bitch'.

"Okay, okay I wasn't listening sue me" I finally admitted with a cheeky smile.

"Seriously Bethel when are you going to start looking for a job? Six days has already passed since you left that dump of a firm, you need to do something with your life Beth please, I'm worried"

If my best friend Rina was a guy we surely would have been soul mates. We have gone through thick and thins together she is the only one I could actually trust with any of my deepest darkest secrets. She was my first friend in college and since then we have been inseperable.

"Ri Ri I have heard you and I'm really grateful that you care Soo much about me and since you said you're worried don't worry I'll start looking for a job asap" I sighed, you really did not want to argue with Rina she was a lawyer just like me so yh she was a really good persuader might I dare say even much better than I was.

"Thank you" she smiled in victory.

"Soo apart from coming here to persuade me to look for a job, why exactly are you here?" I said bluntly with no filter in the mix.

"What!!" She said feigning ignorance. Now it was my own turn to give her 'the' look.

"Stop shiting me and tell me the other reason you're here" with her own cheeky smile she suddenly held my hands tightly.

"Beth you Know I love you, I really do, so please will you carry your lazy ass up so we can go to a club, you need to live a little sister, Times not waiting for anyone" I sighed deeply, because this was like the millionth time she's told me this.

"Fine fine, I'll go to the club with you" those were the hardest words I had ever uttered in my life, but if I wanted Rina to stop bugging me I will just have to comply.

"Wait, hold the friggin' phone did you, Bethel, just say yes?" Rina asked in pure disbelief,

But the happiness was way too clear on her face. I nodded my head in confirmation.

"Oh my God finally, it's like the heavens heard my desperate prayers" she continued squealing like she just received a million bucks.

"Dramatic much?" I whispered with a faint smile. I was always happy whenever she was happy, yes I loved her that much.

"Whatever" she chuckled "I will be back around six to pick your ass up, and please honey dress like you're ready to kill" she said giving me a warning glare. I smiled, she knew me too well. I could wear a rag to the club and I could care less, ok so maybe not exactly a rag, but yes something not too flashy or eye catching. Yup I'm that hopeless.

"Yes ma'am"I said giving her something close to a salute, I think. Don't judge.

It's been an hour since Rina left and trust me when I say I haven't even started looking for an outfit to wear. I really am a lot of work.

Instead I have been thinking about what I saw last night when I went out to buy groceries.

........................

Flash back...

After I finished buying my groceries since I didn't come with my car I decided I wanted to walk instead of taking a Taxi.

As I was walking through the streets of New York, I saw a huge crowd gathered near a tall building, being an extremely curious individual I decided to fine out what the fuss was all about.

"Ehrm, sorry Good evening ma'am If I may ask, why are a bunch of people gathering here?" I asked a nearby random old lady.

"Good evening to you dear, look up to the very top of the building" she replied pointing upwards.

Following what she said I looked up and to my absolute suprise there was a person at the very top of the building, though I couldn't make out what the person looked like I knew it was a man from the features.

"Goodness gracious! What is that man doing up there?" I asked shocked.

"Seems like he wants to commit suicide" the old lady responded indifferently.

You could see there wasn't any interest in her eye for if the man did commit suicide or not. And I couldn't blame her the rate of suicide in New York had become very alarmingly high recently for some reason, that people now find it strange if no one commits suicide in a month or even less.

"Oh that's another one this week now" I heard a man say as he passed by.

And I didn't know if it was just me seeing it, but there was another silhouette standing close to the man on top of the building.

"There is another person standing near the man?" I muttered to myself, but turns out the woman by my side heard me.

"What are you saying Lassy, there is no one else standing there apart from the man" the old woman declared confused.

The hell how is that possible, because I'm clearly seeing two figures on top the building, I'm pretty sure I don't have any form of eye defect, maybe the old lady does, I mean after all she was pretty old.

After about five minutes something strange happened. The man we all thought was going to commit suicide stepped backwards away from the edge of the building and Left like nothing happened. Well that's a relief.

As I was about to leave just like all the other people that were also watching. Something caught my eyes. Well just to be clear it was someone's eyes that caught my attention. The most vibrant goldish-blue eyes I have ever seen, the colour alone was strange, but enchantingly beautiful no less.

Because I was caught in somewhat like a trans I didn't realize that it was the eyes of the second figure I was looking into, but when I did realize I was amazed firstly because it was clearly impossible to see another person vividly from that height talk-less of a person's detailed eyes colour and secondly I felt some sort of weird tingle in my palm when our eyes locked.

But oddly enough the figure disappear out of nowhere, which made me question myself if I really did see what I had saw.

end of flashback....

Since yesterday I have been thinking non-stop of those eyes, I even dreamt of them last night. I don't why but as I recalled the colour of those eyes I remember all those stories my dad told me as a little girl.

specifically the words in the story of the heavens which says 'Gold eyes signified the heavens and blue eyes signified Royalty, and when one had both of those colors it makes them Heavens Royalty'
