A few minutes ago, when Stacy joined Alia in the toilet cubicle, Tina, who had been putting on a show just to get the right witness, whispered her plans to Joanna.
Even though Joanna was not comfortable with this idea, she decided to play along just for her bestie's sake.
Tina instructed Joanna to go out of the convenience and wait four minutes before going to call Kayla and Alia's bodyguard for help.
After, ensuring the convenience door was quietly locked again, Tina quickly tidied up and washed her hands before drafting a compelling ssage. She scheduled the text ssage to deliver after three minutes and forwarded it to the senator, -whose contact she got indirectly from Pearl - and Blaze's official mobile number.
Thereafter, she approached the toilet cubicle door and knocked twice.
"Alia, I just texted your father and your husband. Help is on the way. Hang in there."
"What!" Alia and Stacy both exchanged alard gazes.
"You did what!" Alia's weak voice vibrated from behind the toilet door, forcing Tina to take a few steps backwards as she saw the door knob turn.
Though weak and still in a lot of pain, Alia managed to lift herself off the floor with Stacy's help.
Stacy pushed open the door and helped Alia out, holding her firmly around the shoulder.
"What did you do?" Alia demanded furiously, her fragile voice dripping with venom.
Tina repeated her earlier statent in a serene voice while trying to hold her breath, repelled by the conspicuous greenish-yellow stain on the top part of Alia's camisole.
"How dare you!" Alia's body shook with rage, her legs a bit unsteady as she moved threateningly towards Tina, intending to give her a dirty slap.
Tina impulsively moved backward as Stacy managed to keep Alia away from her.
"Amy, take it easy. Don't hurt yourself." Stacy pleaded in an exasperated tone, her icy glare on Tina.
"How dare you contact my husband and my father without my consent? Who do you think you are? Are you crazy?" Alia demanded, biting down on her lower lips and stifling the excruciating pain twisting her navel.
"No, I'm not crazy, Alia," Tina replied, holding Alia's riled gaze. "I was only trying to help."
"Help who?" Alia yelled, her weak voice rumbling with fury.
"I'm sure she was trying to help herself." Stacy hissed. "So pathetic."
"Stay out of this, Stacy. This is none of your goddamn business." Tina warned, unwilling to tolerate Stacy's insult.
"For your information, Miss Sussy ho wrecker, Alia is my business. You ddling in her affair is also my business. So I will talk to you however I please as long as you fail to mind your own business." Stacy's inflad eyes shot daggers at Tina.
"You know what, I'll pretend like I didn't hear you call a howrecker. If I were you, I'd be more concerned with helping my friend clean herself up." Tina gestured at Alia's ssy camisole. ".... instead of instigating her to violent and worsening her state." She lectured.
"Maybe if you get the hell out of our face, I will be able to focus on my friend." Stacy hissed.
Ignoring Stacy's last insulting comnt, Tina turned her attention to Alia, who was looking really sick and pale.
"Alia, I'm sorry if my actions pissed you off. But this is not the ti to argue. You do not look well. I've already cleaned the ss you made on the floor. I also sent Joanna to get your friends and your bodyguard. I only contacted your husband and father in case things escalated. I have no ulterior motive whatsoever."
"I'm sure you don't," Alia said sarcastically, her entire body shaking from the tremor tornting her from within. "But guess what, I didn't ask you to do any of that. So stop trying so hard to make yourself look like a saint because we both know who you really are, a wolf in sheep's clothing."
Tina gasped as if Alia's words had just knocked out the air in her lungs. She blinked twice, squeezing out a few drops of tears, while inwardly hurling curses at Alia. She turned her face sideways, a sly grin framing her lips as another bolt of pain hit Alia, causing the latter to let out a tiny sharp cry.
"Amy..." Stacy's heart hamred against her ribcage as Alia let go of her arm, almost falling forward on her face. She swiftly caught Alia by the waist, but at the sa ti lost her balance on the slippery tile floor because of both their heels.
Stacy fell on her butt with a gasp while Alia landed on her, twisting her left arm in the process.
"Shit!" Tina seeing her second chance quickly rushed over to Stacy's aid.
"Alia, are you hurt?" Stacy overlooked her own trauma as she focused on her friend, who was reeling in great agony.
"Make her sit up," Tina suggested, taking off Alia's stiletto heels.
Both ladies temporarily put aside their grievances as they both helped Alia sit up.
"Sweet heaven! She is burning up." Tina cried out as her hand ca in contact with Alia's skin.
"Stacy..."
"Shh!" Stacy cut Alia off, mopping the sweat on her forehead. "Save your strength. You will be alright."
"Get so water," Stacy ordered Tina while holding Alia's head to her chest.
"Now she wants my help. Pighead." Tina cursed in her heart as she hurried to the door. "It should be five minutes by now. Where are you, Jay."
Just then Joanna arrived with backup. "Tina." She banged at the door repeatedly.
"Perfect timing." Tina bead enthusiastically. She unlocked the door from the inside and opened it wide.
"Where is she?" Kayla asked in a trembling tone. "Her husband is on the phone."
"Over there, with Stacy. She is in a real bad shape," Tina replied in a slightly raised voice to ensure Blaze heard her.
"Thank you, Tina." Kayla and the others rushed inside.
"Where do you think you are going." Tina blocked Pascal from entering, closing the door behind her, a twinkle dancing in the corner of her eyes. "Are you planning to look at your boss's indecently dressed wife?"
"What! No." Pascal's face was flushed with embarrassnt. "I just wanted to make sure she's okay."
"Don't worry, we will take care of her. Just get the ambulance. I don't think she'll be able to walk in her current state" Tina spoke with authority before disappearing into the convenience.
Thirty minutes later, an ambulance arrived at the Diamond Star Club and Alia was discreetly carried away.
