YOUNG MASTER LANGSTON
The air was thick with tension. Laughters died down, cold and sharply like everyone had just witnessed a phantom make an appearance during the bright hour of the day.The door of the cars swung open like birdwings and bodyguards in crisp black suits poured out from the car. They look heavy, like they were carved from concrete, Black aviator sunglasses seated on permanent scowl, black gloves and black boots that could crush bones to shafts. It was very easy to say these men were trained body guards from the way they moved with a deadly aura. Another man stepped out, white suit, crisp, catching the light like fire. He had no glasses on his face but his eyes were dark with something eerie like a ghost awakened in the midst of a gusts.His gaze swept across the compound.

She strutted in like a war commander, her grey suit and pant held a crease like razorblade and a smart phone was held in her hand like a gun.She heard it, staffs calls her Bullet due to how smart and direct she was speak and act. She condones no nonsense!Mr. Keith stopped, eyes flickering from the receptionist to the assistant receptionist, then to Elijah. A wide smile broke over her face but it was immediately cut off by Dickson.His finger jabbed in the air. “Mrs. Keith, this beggar waltzed in here, claiming he is Lanst—”Mrs. Keith's eyes popped wide, almost breaking outta the socket. She didn't give him the chance to land before she landed like a whip on his face.Dickson saw it in a blurr... five manicured fingers, split dangerously through the air. Before he could blink, it crashed again
