Chapter 5 IN LOVE

Venus was so furious that her eyes began to glow, those beautiful brown eyes suddenly turned into blue, and the aura that she was emitting was also so strong that whatever was in the dense forest felt it.

It didn't take long before that eerie aura and the enemies that seems to have surrounded her completely disappeared. This wasn't the first time that this had happened but Venus was currently in a tight spot and for starters, she didn't want any of her passengers to fall prey to whatever was outside.

Her duty was to protect those that were currently with her but if she was by herself, she would have dealt with it. She was also glad that those enemies retreated for she didn't know how she was going to deal with this.

With the danger gone, Venus increased her speed as she was no longer in the mood to drive at a slower speed.

Venus stopped by in several cities to drop the passengers off as not all passengers were going to Sydney, the city where she lives and where the bus starts and ends from.

Around five in the morning, Venus was at the bus rank and several taxis were around, waiting for the passengers getting off the bus to take a lift from them.

The bus had around thirty passengers or so, so it was very busy. Yasmin and the girls were very busy, offloading the luggage and Venus was standing outside with a cigarette in her mouth.

After everything that had happened hours ago, she needed a breather and to clear her head.

"Thank you, Lady V for driving us back safe," a regular female customer said as she stood right in front of her.

Venus blew off some rings of smoke as she smiled at the lady even though it was still a bit dark and a bit difficult to see each other clearly.

"You are welcome, I am only performing my duty," Venus humbly replied.

"Still, I am very thankful. As long as I am on your bus, I feel very safe," the lady gratefully spoke and Venus couldn't stop her.

She wasn't the only one that came but many others and Venus accommodated all of them. Around six in the morning, all passengers were off the bus and the bus no longer has any luggage.

Venus greeted the conductors of other buses before driving away. It was a Friday and Venus was going for the long weekend. Venus and her crew only worked for four days and the other three days were rest days.

Around half-past six in the morning Venus was at the garage. She skillfully parked her bus at its designated parking slot before she and her crew got out with their bags.

Venus had already given those people who came for their things at the bus rank so she was now free and ready to go home.

She looked at her family and smiled, "it's been a tough week but we can now rest. I won't be spending a lot of time with you this weekend, will be visiting hubby's home."

Venus blushed when she thought of her newly wedded husband. Willow the young one couldn't help but whistle when she saw this.

"Don't worry big sis, we will be careful. Just enjoy your time with our brother-in-law, hope you will let us see him any time soon," Willow teased as she looked at Venus.

Venus glared at Willow not angrily, she just couldn't take more of this teasing. Willow was an outspoken young lady and she was one who speaks out her mind but it was still difficult to get used to it.

Skyler couldn't hold herself and let out the chuckle she had been trying to hold for a while now, "ummm, just enjoy yourself and don't forget about us."

"How can I forget you? My things are still at home and besides we will be going the same way," Venus retorted making her look very cute and harmless.

Yasmin wasn't a great talker so she just stood at the side and watched this show with a smile on her face.

To her seeing Venus being happy and with someone whom she really loves made her feel at ease. Three years ago, they had lost all hope of being normal or being alive again but it was this young lady who had made everything happen.

She had given them hope, saved them from that hell, and gave them another life. All she wanted to do was to repay her and that will also not be enough.

"Let's go home then, I am feeling so sleepy and want to sleep," Miley chipped in as she dragged Willow to her side.

Willow who had been dragged glared at this big sister with resentment in her eyes and it made her look very cute again.

The group of five laughed as they began to walk towards the parking space where they left their cars. And on their way, they met other drivers and exchanged greetings with them.

At the parking lot, one black S.U.V and a black sedan were parked side by side and these two cars belonged to these five ladies.

The four girls entered the S.U.V while Venus entered her sedan. The old drivers and other workers looked with envy as Venus and her crew drove their cars out of the garage.

"One day I am going to make a lot of money and buy myself a beautiful car than them!" a thirty-year-old male driver said angrily as he looked at the dust that had been caused by the cars that just left.

Another driver in his fifties chuckled as he looked at this and shook his head, 'it is useless to compare yourself to the young ones. Can't they all see that they will never be able to catch up to them?'

He wasn't muddleheaded and he understood perfectly how different they all were. He had been a driver for more than two decades and yet his monthly salary couldn't compare to that of a driver who had been on the job for less than five years.

It was a great shame to him and other old drivers but he also understood the reasons that pushed Venus and her crew to the top. Venus was the face of the company, if it wasn't because of her, many drivers and other workers would have lost their jobs.

Many of these passengers choose their buses because they all like Venus and everything about her is inspiring. Even his daughters are great fans, so unless one becomes her or acts like her, they will never be able to fight head-to-head with her.

It was just the simple and cruel truth.
