“But what if we don’t? What if Bola wins? What if I’m not strong enough to stop her? What if right now she’s hurting someone and I can’t do anything to save them? What if I lose?”
“Look at me,” Efrain said as he locked eyes with Aramide.
“ I will never let you lose.” He said. They stared at each other for a few minutes, their noses touching.
“thank you,” Aramide said as she pulled away “but right now, words aren’t enough to save the people I love”

Bola smiled as her car finally pulled up to its destination. She was grinning ear to ear. This was going to be fun. definitely.
She slowly got down from her car as her other workers pulled up. They were armed to the teeth with guns and bullets. She adjusted her clothes but not her wide grin.
This, this was going to teach Aramide a thing or two about messi

Bola had to go to extreme measures to protect her family. Her world. She didn't have a child, so she needed to get one and who better to use than the emo sister Mercedes. The one who had nothing to wrote about concerning her life. It wasn't hard to get her drugged. It was pretty easy compared to all the things that Bola had been forced to do over the years, then an artificial insemination process later, Bola was ready to carry the fake baby bump, while a surrogate mother did the rest. After all the effort and strife, did Aramide think, that's she would let her take Cole away from her, of course not! She needed Cole by her side forever, even if she had to pretend to care about Aramide for a while, it was worth it. Bola had done everything. Everything to impress Cole as make him fall in love with her but Cole was obsessed with Aramide! Bola could not wrap her head around what made Aramide so special? Wh

The car finally came to a halt. The men held their tongues with their breaths caught between their crooked teeth, their hands were glued to the trigger on the guns that were within their grip. Each person’s face was even more blank, to them, this was nothing more than they had been informed; a mission, and yes, blood was going to be spilled here and there, but it was what they signed up for right? This was what they wanted and they were good at what they did. Bola finally breathed. Her gaze was steeled as she boreholes into the building in front of her, the drive here had been a rollercoaster of too many emotions she was not open to talking about right now, not even wither self, a small hungry smile spread across her face and rested at the curves of her lips. “Tell them to get ready” she ordered the man behind the wheels from her place at the back seat. The man who seemed to be in his mid-forties merely nodded and gave a thu

“I see you finally decided to come down,” Cole said the moment he saw Aramide walking down the stairs with Efrain trailing behind her. They both looked drained and stress, Aramide looked like she could collapse at any moment, and Efrain? Well, Efrain looked like he was barely hanging on. “It seems like you were waiting, what is it? Did something go wrong?” Aramide deadpanned as she stared at him with a blank expression on her stressed features, her forehead creased and the edge of her lips curled downwards. Her hands were loose by her side as she casually walked into the sitting room and sat on the nearest chair to the exit. Neither men spoke or tried to do anything during this time, it almost felt like their limbs weren’t working, on one hand, Efrain had never thought he would meet this side of Aramide, the side that was dominated by the personality of ariel she portrayed. On the other side, Cole was still finding it hard to accep
ARAMIDE [178] I'm scared.
Aramide felt her heartache in her chest, she could barely breathe as her knees buckled. She fell to the ground beside her shattered phone. Her eyes filled with unshed tears and her lip wobbled. How could this be? Why hadn’t she seen this coming? This was exactly what she feared and it was coming to pass, Bola was one step ahead of her. Aramide choked on her thoughts as she wiped the tears that threatened to fall down her cheeks. She needed to stop this, she needed to stop bola, but how? She no longer felt like she would be enough to put an end to that menace, it had barely been twelve hours since she left the warehouse, and bola had not only found the place and gotten rid of all her men, but she also killed Tania while she was at it. Tania. Aramide never had the best relationship with her step-sister, they were always at loggerheads with each other, the woman couldn’t pinpoint why
ARAMIDE [179] Mommy?
The car ride to the hospital was silent. One could hear the sound of their breaths as Efrain drove as fast as he could towards the hospital. Aramide’s fingers dug into her nails as she stared right ahead trying to focus on everything but the thoughts that were running through her mind, the fear that she might get there but it would be too late tormented her, the thought that Tania was already there and could hurt her daughter crushed her heart over and over again. She clenched and unclenched her jaws as she blinked to clear the tears that had piled up in her eyes. Aramide wasn’t stupid. She knew she could probably be freaking out for no reason, but the voices in her head opposed that, just to be safe, she was heading over there, “Efrain,” she called. Her voice was even lower than when she had spoken in the office, her lip was bruised from all the times she unconsciously bit on it in her anxious state. ”I’m gonna call Daniel and ask him what
ARAMIDE [180] I missed you
Aramide's eyes glossed over as she held her daughter tight. she had dreamt of this moment for oh so long. The moment she would get to him her daughter in her arms, she never thought this day would come, she had been so scared that her daughter would reject, she had lost her so many times but in the end, they were like two pieces of an amulet, They complete each other. For so many years Aramide has had to live with the void in her heart. The one that constantly ate her up and whatever humanity she had left in her. Tears and pain had struggled for years to fill that void. Yet they constantly failed. Right now, Aramide felt more complete than she had ever in her lifetime. Or maybe she was just never complete, Right from the start. She increased the intensity of the grip as sheet her daughter sob into her while she did the same. They desperately needed this cry of relief, this moment would be engraved on their minds like ten years when they
ARAMIDE [181] You can't fix everything
“Sweetie, I'll even get back with your dad, I'll do whatever you want, I'll let you run around in the house, I'll make your dad stop work so he can be with us all the time, but please come back, I'm begging you, please Aracely, I am here like I promised, please come back to me!” She cried as she fell to the ground and rubbed herself against it, as some sort of hug for Aracely Aramide kept looking at the skies and the clouds as if waiting for some sort of Miracle, as if waiting for God himself to come down and change her situation or at least bring her daughter back, she just wanted to say goodbye this time, Just goodbye. ~ Aramide ran her hands through her daughter’s hair as she helped her lay back down. “what is the doctor’s saying about me, mommy?” Aramide heard Aracely ask. “I haven’t spoken to anyone since I arrived, I was, I was just really desperate

“T-Tania wasn't the one who ordered the hit on us that day.” “No, momma, I saw her, I saw the tattoo on her hand from that, she hates you so much" “no, it was Bola, Bola was the one who ordered that day, Bola Hampson Dante. And that's not all, she killed Tania too" Aramide said as she locked eyes with her daughter. Silence fell on the room for a while. It was mostly occupied by Aracely's thoughts. Aramide sighed as she rested against her chair. Sure, this wasn't how she hoped the conversation would go or anything like that, but this was what was going on now she had to face it right? “Since when did you—" “Excuse me," Aramide heard someone speak. she averted her gaze to the Doctor standing a few feet away from her. “I'll have to ask you to leave because I need to check on the lady h
