view moreElla was sleeping peacefully when she felt someone jumping on her bed, and it didn’t take a genius to know that it was her daughter. “Lily, for the sake of God, stop jumping on the bed and let me sleep.” She groaned in annoyance and snuggled up with the pillow. Dan let out a small grunt when he felt someone’s hand around him. He opened his eyes slowly, only to find Ella hugging him in her sleep, which made his eyes wide as he didn’t know how their sleeping position changed. “Lily, like a good child, go back to sleep like most of the kids would do this early in the morning. You really are like your father. How the hell can the two of you get up this early? Just go back to sleep.” Ella told her daughter grumpily, which made Dan chuckle. He figured that Ella still didn’t realize that she was sleeping on him, and if she had, then she would have jumped miles away. Dan signaled for Lily to stay quiet and leave the room, which she obliged. He tried to remove Ella’s hand from him and trie
Ella’s head was aching badly when she woke up. It was as if something big was sitting on her head. She tried to get up but couldn’t do it. She turned herself only to find Dan sitting on the ground with his head on the side of her bed, sleeping peacefully. Unknowingly, she had a smile, looking at his face. She brought her fingers into his hair and started ruffling it slowly. It made her think of the old days when everything was not perfect, but it was not at least this complicated. When she felt him waking up, she removed her hair from his and pretended to be asleep. Dan was feeling better when he felt her hand on his head. After a few more minutes of this pleasure, he decided to officially wake up but found Ella pretending to sleep. “I know that you are awake, Ella.” He rolled his eyes while smiling. “I was not pretending to sleep. I just woke up.” She bites her lips. “Yes, that’s why there was a ghost hand in my hair.” He stated, stopping himself from laughing out loud. “Whatev
It’s been almost two hours since Daniel had to leave her house. He was sitting on the couch in his own apartment, contemplating when to see Ella next. Just when he decided to call Aubrey to check on his daughter Lily, his phone rang, and much to his disappointment, it was Fred instead of Ella. He picked up his phone. But before he could say anything, Ella’s father started to speak. He sounded petrified. “Dan, come to Ella’s place right now. She is not opening her door.” “Fred, don’t panic. I am on my way.” Wasting no more time, Dan took the car keys and rushed to the mother of his daughter’s place. Within five minutes, he reached and saw Fred banging on the door. Even Ron and Aubrey were trying to call her. “What’s going on?” He asked them worriedly. “Ella has locked herself inside. I tried to call on her phone, but it was switched off. She is not responding to either of us,” Aubrey explained. “Do you guys have a spare key to this house?” He asked them. “We are idiots,” Ron mut
For the past few days, things have been monotonous for Ella. She used to sleep, eat, work, and take care of Lily. She kept her talks minimal with her father, hardly noticing him. And she didn’t have to work hard to maintain a distance from Daniel, as he was doing that for both of them. She had never felt so rejected, ever. Ella turned the knob to enter her home, only to find Bellatrix and Candice sitting with her dad on her couch. Her daughter was sitting on her father's lap. But she was furious, as her eyes were solely on the women who had made her life hell. “What the hell are you two doing here?” “Now, this is no way to talk to them, Ella. I have called them here so that all of us can sort out the differences.” Her father explained. “There is nothing to talk about. Lily, come here right now. You are not sitting in the same room as them.” She called her daughter. “Ella, I get that you don’t like me now that you know that I am not your actual mother, but to create hatred in the
Things were going pretty smoothly after her confession, much to Ella’s surprise. It’s been almost three days, and not once did Dan try to talk to her, which she didn’t know was good or bad. She had been observing him, and he seemed to behave normally, as if she had never told him the reason for leaving. But whereas his mom and dad were concerned, they were pretty supportive and understood her completely. Yes! What she did was pretty cowardly, but people make mistakes and learn from them. Ella was going into the living area to call Dan and Lily for lunch when she saw the sight in front of her, which made her heart melt all over again. Lily was sitting on Dan’s lap, and both of them were laughing. She had unshed tears in her eyes. Moments like this always make her feel like a bad person and a terrible mother. She didn’t want to ruin the moment, so she decided to go inside the kitchen without disturbing the two of them, but God had other plans for exactly that moment. The doorbell ra
Ella was doing nothing but trying to relax by watching one of her favorite shows on television. It has been years since she actually took time out for herself and did nothing. Usually, she is busy taking care of Lily, but now that she is out with her father and meeting her grandparents, she can be alone. She knew that at some point she would have to meet Lucia and Finn, but she wasn’t ready. What reason could she possibly give them for her abrupt departure? They were no less than like parents to her, as they always took care of her like their own kid, but she had to do what she had to. So, she thought that it was an ideal decision to let Lily go alone with Dan to meet them. But at the same time, Ella also knew that she would have to face the music soon and tell all of them the real reason for leaving because she wouldn’t be able to run from them for a long time. From the past reactions of Dan, she wasn’t sure if she did the right thing by running away because, not once, he made her
At present, Daniel was going through papers in the file when his phone rang, making him pause his work. He picked up without looking at the caller ID. “Hello.” “It’s been over two weeks, and you still didn’t think it was necessary to call your mother and tell her if her son was fine or not.” His mother, from another line, demanded an explanation. “Sorry, ma. I have been busy with work. I have been working on a project.” He explained. “Danny, life is beyond work as well. For the past six years, you have done nothing but work. Plus, it is the longest you have stayed alone without us.” “Ma, you make me sound like a kid. You know work is important, and I have been staying with you all because it’s nice to come back home to people who love you. Living alone can be boring.” He stated. But he knew that it was partially a lie. He hated living a single moment alone, as it always made him think about Ella. “How much we try, we both know that your father and I cannot fill the void of Ella.
Ella was up early. Unlike usual, she did not need to have her own daughter as her alarm clock. She had hardly gotten any sleep last night, as she was stressed about Dan’s reaction. Before she knew it, it was past one in the afternoon, and Ella was still lost in her own thoughts. Like any other day, she was monotonously doing all her chores, but with the additional stress of Daniel. It was the doorbell that made Ella stop in her tracks. She was confident that it was not Timothy, but Daniel. He would have told his friend about Lily being his daughter and not Ron’s. “I want to meet my daughter,” Daniel stated as soon as she opened the door without even giving Ella a chance to say anything. She, however, quietly nodded her head in response and stepped aside to make space for him to enter her house. “Follow me.” She said to the father of her daughter and led him to the backyard of her house, where Lily was playing with her toys. “Lily, someone is here to meet you.” She spoke to her dau
Ella was in hysteria. Even though the Daniel she knew was one of the most amazing person, she wasn't sure if he had changed in the years of her absence. Now that he knows about Lily's existence, he could easily take her away. She might be getting ahead of herself, but she cannot say for sure if things between her and Daniel will ever resolve amicably. He had stormed from her home, and it was only a matter of time until he marched back and take their daughter away without even listening to her explanation. When the doorbell rang later at night, it made Ella stand as still as a rock. She was too anxious to open the door and face Daniel again. However, when the bell rang again, she took a deep breath, slowly walked towards the door, and opened it. At first, she was relieved to find Timothy standing in front of her instead of Dan, but at the same time, she could not help but feel disappointed that he hadn't even come to meet his own daughter. Did he not want anything to do with Lily?
Miranda was walking, but her gaze was fixed on her phone as she was texting a co-worker when she collided with someone. If it hadn’t been for that person, Miranda would have surely fallen down and embarrassed herself at this party. “I am sor...” The words were caught in her throat when she saw the person with whom she crashed. How can she ever forget him? She has longed to see him for many years. It flabbergasted Eric to see his wife after seven years in his arms. If it weren’t for Lizzy, his daughter, then he wouldn’t know for how long he would have kept her in his arms. It felt like a very familiar emotion inside him, and it was too good to be true to have her so close to him. Miranda, though, was astounded to see her daughter so grown up after only seven years. She is now ten years old and has evolved into a beautiful girl. Her eyes had always yearned to see her precious angel. “Dad, this party is extremely dull. When can we go home?” She asked him, completely ignoring her mothe...
