Sold? Oh Please. Chapter 18
Advertisement
Jessie was beyond outraged. What in the hell just happened? She was so confused, she didn't even know what to think. All she wanted was to go and sleep in her own bed. The possibility of that actually happening was what kept her walking. She didn't know exactly where she was but the city was as usual bright and soon she was sure she would walk off the highway. If she found a store she would call Tony. She had no idea where she was, ahh the disadvantages of driving in a dark van with tinted windows. She finally got of the highway and walked into a street, as she kept walking she started to recognize somethings, like the house with the massive gate. Or the dog park that she loved to come to, she always wanted a dog but she was too busy to care for one. It was dark alright but this was unmistakably her street. Mustering up strength she ran, she ran with all her might, screaming at the top of her lungs. She was home! Finally she couldn't wait to lay her head down on her mattress. But how come? She didn't walk very far, by chance did Jason drop her there on purpose? 'No way' she shook her head. 'It's just a coincidence'.
She was ecstatic as she took the turn that lead her to the house only to bump into somebody. She fell backwards on her butt and looked up to see who was standing in her driveway.
As she looked up she didn't see one person in fact she saw a crowd standing outside her house, a crowd so large that it was still a couple of meters from her gate but right from the corner people piled. They were holding placards and signs. 'They must be here because I'm missing' she thought.
"Are you okay miss?" The person she bumped into turned around to help her up. He extended his hand to help her and when he took it and as soon as he lifted her from the ground he let go just as fast with a gasp. The lady beside him turned around and she with the exact same reaction when she saw Jessie.
"What's wrong with you?" Jessie whined rubbing her butt as she fell again.
The second woman tapped her friend beside her "Susan tell me am I seeing this?"
Susan screamed when she saw Jessie.
"I see her too, oh my gosh, her ghost is back?!"

"I know, I know I'm really back. I've been able to come back for you, my fa... wait ghost? What are you talking about?" she asked.
The first woman started screaming as well, before Jessie knew it people began to turn and scream.
"Look it's Jessie Marin, she a ghost! She come back to kill!" Another woman screamed.
Jessie got up and dusted her behind. Looking at them she smiled. "Look this must be a misunderstanding, I'm not here to kill anybody."
"That's a lie!" Another woman screamed.
Jessie stepped back realising the crowd was getting agitated, learning from past experiences it was not a good idea at all to instigate a crowd of passionate fans.
Before she could make a real run for it one guy grabbed her forearm and pulled her to himself.
"Do you think this is a joke? Coming here looking like that? Do you think this is a joke?" He pushed her causing her to stumble and fall over.
"You, have some shame. I understand that you loved her, but this is too much!" He yelled.
Another teenager ran to her and grabbed both her shoulders "Tell me it's not true, tell me you're not a killer! Please, please" she cried shaking her.
Jessie was so flabbergasted she didn't know how to respond or react.
***************************************************
Five years ago.
"Why do I have to pretend in front of them? They were the same people yelling and cursing me. They said such nasty things about me online!" Jessie yelled.
"Hey! Look at the way she talking to me. Look here, you're an actress. In this country image is everything, the public is everything. You are an excellent actress but that won't ensure anything. The public's opinion of you is what is going to ensure you survival in this industry." The director scolded her.
"But director! I didn't become an actress for people, I did it because I love to act. Why do I have to apologise? I did nothing wrong the same people claiming to be my fans are the same people spreading such rumour. I didn't ask for their love or their appreciation. I'm simply doing my job, they should mind their business!" She screamed out of frustration.
"Aigoo... tsk tsk tsk. Look you will apologise weather you like it or not!"
"No! I don't want to, you can't force me!" She screamed walking out.
"Jessie! Jessie!" The director yelled but she ignored him.

"Calm down sir, please be patient with her, you see she is still young, I'll explain it to her." Tony pleaded with the director.
"Where did I find such a stubborn actress? Fix this."
"Yes director, excuse me." Tony said bowing and walking out.
"Hey, Jessie! Hey!" He ran after her, until he caught up and held her arm to prevent her from walking further.
"Hey! What was that? You can't just act like this." Tony scolded her.
"So what? Did I tell them to love me? Shall I apologise for their own mistakes? All I want to do act my movies and dramas, why do I have to suffer all this?" Jessie asked.
"Look Jessie, the reason your such a good actress is because unlike many others you aren't looking for fame. And because you just want to act, you're passionate about it that's what makes you do inspirational." Tony said leading her to seats by the wall.
"Tell me something I don't know." She rolled her eyes.
Tony smiled, "You're so arrogant. Look Jessie you are a new actress, you might be in many dramas but you're still new. Acting is more than staring in different dramas. Each writer thinks up a story and writes it, they have a message to pass. Actors bring that story to live and inspire others. To the viewers you are the story, you are the message. You inspire people. You become an icon, a role model. Actors aren't just acting, they have an image to uphold, even if you are really a bad person you must change because you are no longer living for yourself."
"But that's not fair" Jessie said.
"Well it's the burden you carry, Jessie you are very loveable, and kind and forgiving. Give all your best to the people that are looking up to you. Give hope to those who see you as hope. Can you do that?" Tony asked.
"Ofcourse I can, I'm an actress after all" Jessie smiled.
**************************************************
"I'm sorry, please forgive me for what I've done." Jessie said to the crowd that had began to pull and beat her.
"So you did it?!" The girl cried. "How could you kill a person!" She said.
"What?" Jessie gasped.
"That is not Jessie!" One man shouted "She is pretending to get us to forgive that evil woman!"
"Yes!" Another person said "She's a fake, she wants to deceive us. Jessie Marin is dead!"
"No, no I'm not dead! Please believe me!" Jessie yelled.
"Get her!" Some one shouted, and in a split second something smashed into her and broke all over her. The way the slime fell down her face made her realise it was an egg.
Jesse turned knew that she might not make it out alive if she remained where she was.
"Look! It's a UFO!" That gave her the split second to run.
"Look she's getting away!" They screamed and took off after her.
She tried to run faster, but the eggs kept coming, soon it was followed by tomatoes and when they were out of food stuffs the started to throw stones.
One hit her heels and she tumbled onto the floor grazing her chin and elbow. At this point she was in tears and begging.
"Please, please I didn't do anything. Please stop! Please." She got up to keep running because she knew the moment she stopped running she would be dead. She was limping and exhausted but she kept moving.
She struggled to see with the tears she kept running, begging, crying.
Then one stone hit her one her head and she turned to look behind her and her heels bent in an awkward angle and she feel down. A searing pain tearing through her ankle, touching the back of her head she saw blood. She was sat on the floor crying.
"Please, please I beg you. Please, please I can't anymore, please. Don't do this, don't come closer please." She cried. Sitting in the middle of the road she hugged her knees and bent her head as the crowd continued to curse at her, stone her, yell at her.
Then she felt arms around her and she didn't feel the eggs anymore. She pushed the person, frightened that someone was trying to take advantage of her.
"Jessie, Jess it's me, it's me."
"Jason?" she said weakly.
"Yes, you're safe now, you're safe." He said.
She heard sirens approaching and it scared the crowd away as they all scattered running away from the police.
Jason picked her up and held her. Walked to the car he put her in and after he put on her seat belt he walked around and got into the car. Tossing his egg and tomato soaked suit out the window he drove away.
