Ebony&Ivory-Chapter 3

*The following morning....*

Luke: *wakes up, smelling breakfest*

Anita: *could be heard chuckling n talking to someone, although the other party was not replying*

Luke: *head to the kitchen* Hey Anita

Anita: Good morning, Luke. Breakfast is ready. You have a very cute friend here

Illust: *sitting on the counter, munching a piece of pancake using her hands*

Luke: Thanks *feels his face, he frowns a bit, realizing he still has the scar*

Illust: *sees the scar n reach ovr to feel it, looking at him with questioning eyes, as if asking wat happened*

Luke: You were having a nightmare and scratched me by accident

Illust: *whines apologetically*

Luke: It's okay

Anita: *sees the scar as well* Oh my, Luke. Wht happened to u? *quickly rush to get the first aid kit for his face*

Luke: Got scratched

Anita: This will not do~! *puts the medicine n band aid on his face* You have a press conference later at 11 n then an live TV interview with the famous reporter...

Luke: A press conference? For what? Sorry I forgot

Anita: Press conference for u to play in the musical movie with the two famous model/stars of course, n the live TV interview is for ur new album

Doc: *led by Tom the bodyguard* Good morning everyone

Luke: Hey Doc.

Doc: I'm here to examine the little girl

Tom: Examine to see if she has rabies while ur at it, doc

Illust: *hissed at Tom*

Luke: Tom, take it easy. Cmon Illust

Illust: *looks warily at the doc*

Doc: Be a good girl, luv, n Dr. Phineaus will reward u a lollipop *shows her the lollipop before preparing his medical instruments*

Luke: He's a good doctor, Illust

Illust: *nods*

Doc: *takes a syringe n takes a blood sample frm her, then chked all her vitals* Well, she's more or less healthy. All her vitals are good and normal. Just a little malnutritious, is all. *notices a small bruising at her inner thigh under the nightgown* Hold up, what's this?

Luke: What is what? *looks at it* Looks it's been there a while

Doc: Hmm... *puts on surgical gloves* You might wanna hold her dwn a little for a while

Luke: Hold my hand, okay Illust *Takes her hand

Illust: *whines n took his hand*

Doc: Sorry, girl. The good dr needs to chk here *lifts her nightgown n saw there were a few other bruising ard the inner thigh. He examined her vagina n held his breath* My god

Luke: What's wrong with her?

*Anita n Tom looks in interest*

Doc: How old is she?

Luke: She told me she's 12

Doc: *removes his gloves* Well, some sick bastard thought it nice to use her as a fuck toy. She has been raped, n this is quite recent, maybe a week ago, bt the extent of the vaginal tearing n bruising shows tht she had been subjected to this for almost a year now

Luke: oh my god.

Tom: That is sick

Anita: *held her breath*

Illust: *looks away sadly, confirming the doc's diagnosis*

Luke: *holds the little girl close* So, how soon are we gonna know she and I are related

Doc: I'll have to do the testing. Expect the results in abt 3 days

Luke: Okay. *Gets himself ready* Time for the press conference

Illust: *points at herself n held up a question mark drawing ovr head, meaning to ask what would she do*

Luke: Anita, can you look over her?

Anita: Yes, of course. Want some more pancakes, luv?

Illust: *nods*

Anita: Alright, bt eat properly with a fork n knife this time, luv

Luke: *Walks down with Tom to do the press conference. He gets on his shades, due to the flash from the cameras. As he approaches the meeting room of the hotel, the media starts flashing their cameras and asking questions

Reporter1: Mr. Oliva! How do u feel being chosen to play one of the lead roles of this musical movie?

Luke: I feel really nervous about it. When I did appearances for shows, they were mostly cameos or supporting roles....but having a leading role is more difficult.

Reporter2: Mr Oliva! The director made an announcement last week tht u will reveal to us the title of the movie. What is it?

Luke: The movie's title is Passion and The Play

Reporter3: Is it true tht u will be acting alongside the famous Model King and Prince couple Mr. Thilius Broadway and Faira Essex??

Luke: That's true.

Reporter3: How does it feel to be acting with those hotshots?

Luke: Very exciting. Not to mention they told me themselves they saw me 4x live

Majah: Majah frm the Weekly Tabloids. My sources found tht u picked up a bum child last night after ur concert. Is it true?

Luke: *takes a deep breath* Yes I have. And I have made a discovery that she might be the daughter of my deceased brother. In three days, we will find out if she is or not.

Majah: Oh? Are u sure it's not one of ur "substitute girlfriends"? We have reason to believe tht little girl rather resembles ur ex-gf before u dumped her to pursued this career

Luke's Manager: Pls, only questions abt the movie

Luke: *frowned; that girl wasn't his ex-girlfriend, she was his best friend*

Majah: Or maybe u just have a thing for little kids, eh? Just like... *he was abt to mention the "sensitive issue" of Luke's fav idol*

Luke: Security! Remove him!!

*Tom n his colleagues removed him*

Illust: *has escaped frm Anita's watch n was hiding backstage, witnessing everything*

Luke: I'm sorry, that's all for now. *walks down from the podium. he walks by and then notices Illust* Illust? I thought you were with Anita

Illust: *stick out her tongue naughtily*

Luke: *smirks and picks her up* That's definitely from my brother. Cmon.

Illust: *sees Majah being taken away n points at him, with a question mark drawing over her head*

Luke: Oh, that's one of those tabloid guys. They're people who write fake stories about people. Most of 'em bad

Illust: *nods n lets herself be taken bk to the room*

Anita: Oh, Illust! U got me so worried~! *fussed ovr her*

Luke: She's okay

Illust: *giggled*

Luke: One of those tabloid jerk-offs appeared

Anita: Which one? Majah?

Luke: That's him...he almost brought that subject that gets me pissed off the most

Anita: Ugh, not him again! I swear tht Majah is stalking u or something

Luke: And I told the security no Tabloids! It's bad enough when they got that first story about me

Anita: Heaven knws how tht Majah managed to trick his way into the press conference. Someone has to get a restraining order against him

Illust: *listens to every word*

Luke: If he prints another story about me, Im going to. He almost called me...*Doesn't have to courage to say the word* Let's say he almost accused me of something that Michael was falsely accused of

Anita: *knew wat he meant* The nerve of him!

Luke: And I want to know how he knew about Illust. *picks her up* I mean, she's my niece!

Anita: We won't knw until the doc find out her relations with u. In the meantime, it's best if u be careful

Luke: I will
