Against all odds Sweet life of mine
- Morning sunshine! The way he said it made me think back with nostalgia. He used to call me this way and I still adore it. - Good morning my love! That took him by surprise, watching his mouth open, his mug still in his hand. The next thing he did was to approach me, leaving his coffee on the table and put his arms around my waist. Sweet shivers responded in all my body, recreating the trace of his hands all over it. - Say that again, Maya! My God, I think I reached something in him. - My love… I did not get the chance to inhale when his hungry mouth was already giving pleasure to mine. This morning kiss was different, still full of pleasure but different. It was like he got fulfilled with what I said like he was waiting for centuries for me to realize that he was indeed my true and only love. - You are amazing my Maya! - You make me so, Phillip! - Here, let me serve you. - Thank you. The coffee was so good that without reali

- Thank you, Phillip! - Anytime, sunshine! Are you all right now? - I think I am… - Ok, then let us go back, ok? - Ok. The cottage was near, only a few steps. I walked sustained by him and he carefully placed me on the little sofa in the room. Only then I took my time to really observe the piece of heaven we were staying in. I just loved the intimate atmosphere that the small room offered. It was only one bed, the same canopy shape we had back at the main hotel. - Would you like some tea? I snapped out of my state and looked at him with my eyes still wet. - Yes, please! I watched him go into the small kitchen, boil some water, and put a little tea bag into a cup. With firm movements, he stirred in it bringing it to me. I took a few sips. The tea was perfect. I was starting to fill warm and calm. - Better now? - Much better, thank you! - I am sorry… - For what? I could sense the guiltiness in his voice and a

Phillip’s story It really was an honor to me knowing Maya wants to invite me to perform at her fashion event. I want to help her to become known. Now that she won the Bali contest I had no doubt about it. I took some rehearsals in the meantime but I don’t really know when the event is going to take place. There was a person we pissed off when we left, and that was Adam Oakland. First because as I understood he had not some normal plans with Maya in this world of fashion and second because the guy was two-faced that I could bet he wants to harm her. Something tells me his intentions towards her are not so clean. We managed to make him angry because Maya and I took the same plane back to London and it was not the very one he flew with. To be honest I don’t really care about his thoughts. The first week was the hardest. We barely see each other as we had so much work to do. I went every day with Peter to the studio and I imagine Maya had a lot of work to do with her upcoming event. -

Maya’s story It is been a month since we came back from Bora Bora, that paradise where Phillip made me feel so special. And also one painful month in which he didn’t call or even tried to reach me somehow. And that was maybe because of Adam. There might be a possibility he found out Adam was here to visit me otherwise, I don’t see why he is avoiding me. I am very sure that like me he did not forget that night. We just couldn’t. It is impossible to forget such an intense connection as we had. The way we complete each other was just too perfect. The days passed, Phillip was maybe busy with his events and rehearsals. I was with mine. Two more fashion shows to come and again Adam was in the picture. I settled into two events instead of one only because Adam said it would be best to clime and have success. He got for me these contracts so I had to full fill them. I know that Phillip did not agree with this partnership but for now this is all I have. Adam had connections in this world and

Maya’s story Only one week until my first event, the charity one. Famous people with a lot of money were invited to support a cause, child abuse. Unfortunately, abuses like these are so common not only here in England but also around the world. Someone has to take a stand. Even if I feel it is not enough from somewhere we have to begin. The day after Carla left passed but the call I promised to her did not exist. My courage left me and I decided I should see with my things. Things went smoothly and in no time the charity day came. This time I chose the green drees. Carla said it goes wonderfully with my red hair. She was right. I feel beautiful. I asked Adam to come to take me from home. I had some urgent things to finish and I had my car in service during this period. He was happy to accept my request. Only that by the time he got here Phillip was also in front of me. I did not expect that and I was looking perplexed at the both of them trying to figure out what to say next. -

How inopportune. - What do you mean you almost succeeded? - Let me refresh your mine Miss knows it all! Remember that night and that highway? Even that car coming towards you with no brakes. - Oh my God, it was you! You murdered my sister you crazy lunatic! - Me who?

Miron’s storyIt’s been almost three days and no damn sign of the kidnapper. I was going insane with all this worry. I don’t even have proof of life. Peter and Samantha kept calling me and every time the answer is the same. Even Corrine canceled all her events to be with us in such moments.We talked on the phone to gather in a meeting here at my house. Maybe we could figure out who and why is doing this. There are a lot of questions around this mystery. I just hope Rita is fine.I can’t wait and I keep looking at my watch, counting the hours until this evening. I have all the information which I had been able to find out all these past few years. All that Rita told me and all my research about the company she used to work for. There has to be something that we’ve missed. From the day of her so-called accident to the one she was taken. Someone hates her so much that if at the beginning wanted her dead now I am not so sure anymore. He or she would have already done it. That is a though

Rita’s storyThe days passed and I was being held in this smelly warehouse. Or at least I thought it was a warehouse. I lost track of time, not knowing when is day or is night. Every once in awhile Sarah passes to see me, bring me food if I can call it food to a loaf of bread with a glass of water. But I was happy it was enough to survive this ordeal. Every time she entered the wooden door cracked load so I see it as a warning. I thought of freeing myself and run as fast as I can but in the end, fear takes over me and I change my mind. I don’t want to piss her off. The door cracked again and her high heels echoed in the entire place.- How is my little prisoner doing?Why the sudden interest in me? There are moments when I don’t really care what happens to me as long as this lunatic is being caught and punished. - Why do you care?- Well, I don’t, I was making some conversation because I have to give you some fresh news.- What could possibly be so

Miron's story After one year… Hey, Noah, look what Daddy has here. Your favorite toy. Let's see where Mommy is. Rita was in the small garden she had set up in our backyard right next to the pool. She loved to grow and care for flowers. She had roses of all colors, peonies, and many tulips. She adored them and it seemed like little Noah too because since he saw her he started moving his little hands and feet. He was adorable. Let's see what Mommy is doing here. Rita was bent over the peonies and I intentionally pushed her a little and she fell on the wet ground. Noah began to laugh so hard with his tiny mouth that I was beg
Against all odds Has the jury reached a verdict?
Miron's storyToday Sarah was going to have a big surprise. The court had summoned her brother to testify. And besides, there's a second T-shirt sprinkled with Jenna's blood. Jack led us to it and from there to its analysis and the establishment that it belonged to Sarah was just one step.People were resuming their seats on the benches. The atmosphere, I didn't know why it was tenser. Maybe because the weather was darker outside. It wasn't long before Sarah was brought in and we then heard the echo of the bailiff's voice.All rise! The honorable judge Stone!We all rose as we always did. The feeling was still strange. Something was going to happen today, I was more and more sure of it. Even Michael mentioned to me that
Against all odds Who had the defendant killed?
Miron's storyJohn Maxwell came frightened through the benches right to the witness box, looking in all directions as if waiting for something to happen to him. I was really sorry to know him like that, to look at him and see that he has no defense.The fear was also that he had not seen the light of day in years, the taste of freedom probably since he entered that hospital. Of course, there were walks in the hospital yard but it was not the same.Like scared, he took the oath and took his seat. Again the defense had no questions. I can say that we were lucky that the lawyer didn't know the people and thus the time was shortened and it could only be in our favor.John, please tell us, who you are most afraid of?

Miron's storyAnd so the first bomb fell. We all watched Mandy dance with the baseball bat as if it were the most normal thing in the world. And that T-shirt that was presented and accepted as evidence in the file, was all my delight. From time to time I looked at Sarah, who could no longer find her seat in the chair next to her lawyer. I could say with all my heart that it was the final blow given to this criminal.The orthopedist managed to convince everyone that Sarah at the age of adolescence could easily have handled that bat and I would go even further and say that he also convinced the jurors. Their grimaces suggested many things and not exactly in favor of the defendant.Yesterday seemed to pass just as fast and today it was Father Maxwell’s turn to give statements. He had been summoned two days ago. The momen

Miron's storyThe whole room was already silent and everyone was waiting for Michael's answer. The answer was delayed but maybe he was preparing his ground. That was exactly what he did. He turned on one foot facing the jurors and then to the judge and with a sigh announced the expert's entry.Your Honor, I contradict the lawyer's words, and not only me but also the orthopedic doctor William Dale, also an occasional baseball player, in his free time but enough to tell us how things are. I know it was not quoted but I could not prove otherwise that the bat can be easily handled by a 15-year-old child.

Then followed that indisputable evidence that even the jurors could not ignore. Sarah will definitely have a surprise.Michael had already been invited to question the witness. Darla was a little calmer.Miss Darla, please tell us, what did you see from the yard of your house, being next door to the defendant?That they always have quarrels and Bob almost all the time insulted his wife, including his children.Who is Bob? And how would you describe him?

Miron's storyThe days started to go by so fast that we don't even have time to breathe. Today, Rita's aunt, Darla, was called to the witness box. She came to us first. I offered to come and get her, but she refused. It was clear that she was nervous, but she would have to get over it and tell Sarah's relationship with both her parents and her sister, Lucy, in great detail.But she was very happy when she saw Rita again. They hadn't seen each other in years so they cried and hugged for minutes. They talked about Lucy, how much she loved life and how much she loved Rita. It's just that fate has been very hostile to them.Miron, Rita, I'm scared! It hurts so much to talk about Lucy that I'm afraid of making a mistake.

Miron's storyYesterday passed quickly. As we had agreed, we cooked together and fell asleep faster than we expected. Rita was really tired but they didn't need her today, so she just accompanied me. I still tried to get her to stay home to rest but she flatly and elegantly refused me.Love, my place is next to you for better or worse. I promise if I start to feel unwell I'll ask Peter to bring me home.Okay, I'll take your word for it. Shall we go?Let's go.It didn't take us ten minutes to get to court. Michael, as usual, was waiting for us in the hall. We were invited in and the same protocol
Against all odds Sarah's end is near, I can feel it!
Rita's storyThe prosecutor's questions hurt me extremely, but I knew I had to answer them. That's the only way I could punish Sarah. It was cruel to remember everything I went through in that warehouse and then to all the places Sarah carried me over but if that was the only way to put her behind bars then I had little choice. Even the baby had become agitated. Instinctively I put my hand on my belly as if wanting to protect him. I kind of guessed what questions would follow.Do we understand, Miss Sinclair, that the defendant here kidnapped your mother and confessed to killing her?Objection! He is misleading the witness!
