[65] WHAT IF?
Aracely breathed fresh air as she walked around the beach, watching the waves and tides go up and down, waver and them settle, she was wearing a black bikini with a black flannel, Sunglasses were delicately perched over her nose, resting carefully on them, She bit her lip as she paused mid-walk, now finally taking time to stare at the water, what was the event? Christmas. Christmas was coming soon.
FLASHBACK
“momma” Aracely whispered, the eight-year-old was sat on Aramide's lap as everyone celebrated Christmas. Dared had tried to play with the girl or even get her to just 'hang out with him, but she disagreed, Apparently in need of her mother's touch.
“Yes, princess?” Aramide gingerly replied as she locked eyes with her little princess, the eight-year-old was wearing a blue princess gown and had a little wand in her hands, the combo was Aracely's idea, so Aramide just went along with it.

ARAMIDE [66] MEETING ACE
The man's foot assaulted the ground as he took slow yet heavy steps towards his destination, his fists clenched and unclenched, his eyes glossed over as a shade of rage surfaced on his features— That was probably why when he barged into the room where he was heading even the security didn't have it in him to stop him. The man was in his lateo thirties. He had a well trimmed beard and was fair skinned, he had blue eyes which could leave anyone mesmerized, The people around him knew him, they knew when his mood changed like moments like these it was better to leave him and watch like a spectator for the movie to play out The walls were adorned with Marble, this place was definitely expensive — but that did nothing to soothe the anger inside if him, bubbling up and twisting around like knots in his empty stomach, the same one he had left unfed when he barged out mid breakfast just to have this encounter. &n
ARAMIDE 67 LOOSE
The woman’s hills carefully clicked on the marble tiles. Silence fell on the space she had walked in immediately, one could even hear the sound of the thick terrified breaths from the people around her. Her face scrunched up in disgust as she walked through the halls of her company— In her opinion those petty workers who worked for her couldn’t it rite her more even if they tried. Her eyes narrowed at the cleaner who seemed to be doing a flimsy job at cleaning, How hard was it to hurry up and do a job she was sure she over paid them for? “You” her icy tone pierced through the tense atmosphere as she narrowed her eyes and glared at the Janitor who was trying her nest not to break down at the sight of the woman, She had heard stories about the woman, horrific stories that could send chills down anyone’s spine. Once it was even rumored that she sold or assaulted some of the worker who had even dared to graze her shoes, such was the ca

“You'd better start spilling your words before I make you" Bola threatened. A broad smile spread across Ace's face as she stared back at the woman, she gently and carefully sat down on the chair that was opposite Bola's chair, she let out a comfortable sigh before she spoke “Angel....he told me about you..." She trialed off as she locked eyes with the woman “You are a despicable being" “how dare you, you little—” “first of all, you will address me with respect, I am not your employee, and secondly, the name is Ace, but the people I work with call me AA” Ace watched as Bola's FAC completely drained and lost color, from that little information almost anyone could deduce who she was and why they should keep their head down when ever they addressed her. She grinned. It was the Ace effect, Her name had spread across every single city including London, no one knew what she looked like or how old she wa

The sound of spoon assaulting plates filled the air, there was thick tension in the air that no one dared to break through, at least not Adriana, He sat on the other side of the table as he watched his adoptive mother glare at the food she was served, today, she wasn't even trying to hide the anxiety and stress that had swallowed her for the past ten years but Adriana knew the cause and he bore his mother's hatred filled intentions too, it was all their fault that his mother had gone through so much, and when he found them — they were going to pay "Did you speak to the commissioner today?" Tania's icy tone filled the air snapping Adrian out of his thoughts, the boy nodded as he paused and stopped eating, his eyes locked with his mother's icy ones but he seemed unfazed instead he offered a small smile which the woman reciprocated. "Do you want to get some rest? At least until the commissioner can narrow down this case? With all this

“What happened to her?! and who is she?!” Mercedes screeched as she watched Adrian place this anonymous girl carefully on the bed in her lap. “it's literally 2:30am in the morning what were you doing out there?" The woman demanded as she looked the girl over, the girl seemed to still be in her teens, Mercedes didn't even want to think what could have gotten her into the bloody state. “She rolled down into the valley, I think she broke a few bones.” Adrian tried to specify, Mercedes rolled her eyes “obviously! she is literally dead!”She agreed bashfully as she tried her best to get the girl settled down setting up an oxygen tank and other utilities she had kept up in her lab, although many people considered her a doctor, she was actually a scientist. After her mother's death, Mercedes was completely traumatized, she had never thought that losing the woman hurt her so much to that extent, Si

Aramide wasn't dead! his Clarissa his daughter wasn't dead like he had believed for the past ten years! He didn't know how to feel or what to do in that moment, his hand shook as his limbs moved closer and closer to his daughter who seemed to be frozen in her spot as tears filled her eyes and when he was close enough he reached out but she caught his hand, their eyes locked for a few moments, then she held his face almost as if even she wanted to check if this was indeed real, if he was indeed here. Aramide refrained from speaking to her after for the past few decades because she's wasn't sure if she was ready to face him, she wasn't sure if she could take it, if she could fac

Aramide tried to not focus on the years they had spent apart, but instead focus on the time they had now and of course finding her daughter.Aramide watched Richard sip his coffee and then drop it back on the table, he bit his lips as his gaze rested on Aramide before he opened his lips to speak “I'm doing okay, handling some shipping businesses and —and waiting for the day after tomorrow ” he whispered the last part as their eyes locked“Blaire's anniversary,” they said it together at the same time before each person tore their eyes away from each other, it was a silent secret between them that Richard blamed himself for Blaire's death, Aramide blamed herself too, but for Richard it was different, he was obsessed with the fact that if he had been with her, in that moment and that day when she died, she c

*One month later* “I think you are getting better” Aracely chuckled as she wheeled towards Adrian, the man was wearing a big smile on his face as walked towards her, Exhaustion oozed off him as he dried himself off. “Swimming isn't exactly my thing” He admitted bashfully. “believe me, I've noticed that” Aracely shot back with a small smile, and their eyes locked for a moment, “when is your aunt coming back?” She asked quickly as she averted in gaze. Adrian still didn't know much about Aracely he didn't even know her real name, She had woken up a few weeks ago and it was chaos for some reason she had thought he was the person trying to kill her and had tried everything in her power to attack him — which was futile since she could barely move a few limbs.
