I got to the dinning room for breakfast but it wasn't done yet.A problem of a large family.I went to the kitchen to help them with their breakfast."Good morning." They all looked at me but no one responded except a lady."Good morning, Irina." She smiled at me."What can I help you with?" I asked them."Please can you chop the onions and carrots for me?" The lady asked.I don't know how to do that!"Okay." I went to her and she gave me the onions, carrot, chopping board and a knife."Can you teach me how to chop it? I will carry on after that." I said to her with the hope that she would teach me."You don't.... Okay, I will." She took the knife and started chopping the onions."See, it is that simple." She said as soon as she finished chopping an onion."Oh! Thank you." I said to her as I took the knife from her and started chopping the onion."What's your name?" I asked her."You want to know my name."she joked."Yeah, you know mine. I wonder how you know my name." I said as I bri
Irina's point of view:I got inside the room to see Roman reading the newspaper while seated on the couch beside the window."Hey." I said to him."Hey, Irina." He replied, he was focused on what he was reading."Can I speak to you for a moment?" I asked him. He looked up and stared at me for a few seconds before looking at his newspaper."What's it all about?" He asked."Can you leave the paper alone? It's serious." I asked him."Sure." He closed the newspaper and placed it on the couch, beside him.I sat on the bed, facing him."Okay, I was lost today and so I found myself in a long and dark passage, then I found a door and mistakenly opened it since I was hearing moans and groans and I saw your dad and aunty Kira making love." I explained to him.He looked at me like I was crazy or out of my mind before he folded his arm against his chest."My dad and my aunt?" He asked."Yes, they were making love. I saw them with my eyes. Your dad is cheating on your mom with your aunt." I told h
Irina's point of view:I left the room angrily and went to freshen up. When I finished freaking up, I changed my clothes and went downstairs. Lunch has already been served. I joined them in the dining room to eat my lunch. I served myself and dug in. The funniest part is that I am sitting across from Aunty Kira.I think I should play with her for a while."Aunty Kira, please can you pass the fish. Dish it for me please." I smiled at her.She glared at me as she dished it for me.One of the maids came."Go and serve my husband. He is in the study room." Mrs Atono instructed the maid."Why isn't Father-In-law here?" I asked no one in particular."He doesn't eat with us. He preferably eats in his study room." Sophie explained."Okay, thank you." I said to her."Mother!" I called Mrs Atono, and she looked at me uninterestedly."What?" She asked."I want to ask you a question if you don't mind." I told her."We are in the dining room." Aunty Kira said."I am all ears." She said and I smile
Irina's point of view:I woke up very early the next day. I woke up around six, I took my bath and got dressed. I went to the kitchen after doing my morning routine. I got there hopelessly. I am sure I am going to starve innocent stomachs today because of my inability to cook.I brought out so many ingredients without having any idea of what to cook.I brought out the pot and the chopping board.God, should I just phone Sarah so that she can guide me this morning?Why didn't she teach me how to cook when she came over?That girl!Or should I go and ask for Roman's help? He knows how to cook.No, I am not. We are fighting.I brought out the carrots from where it is being stored. I don't even know what to cook with it.Sophia cut the carrots the other day, maybe I should try chopping it.I rinsed the carrots and placed them on the chopping board then I started chopping them.After I was done with them, I placed them aside, then I started drumming gently on the table since I don't know w
Roman's point of view:I entered my father's study angrily to see him smoking."What did you do to her?" I asked him angrily."Did she say I did anything to her?" He asked me back."I know you did something to her." I tightened my jaw."Roman, get out of my office if you don't have any reasonable thing to say." He said calmly."Then why was she bleeding?", I asked him."You should ask her. Atleast I am not that blood." He scoffed."You cheated on mom, again?" I asked him in anger."Are you believing your wife? I didn't cheat on her. I promised already." He said."How do you know my wife knows?" I sat on one of his guest chairs.He was speechless and he stared at me for a while before smoking his pipe."She is accusing me of that." He sighed."She won't just come to you and accuse you of cheating on mom. He must have known something just like aunty Lola caught you." I stared at him."What do you want? Why do you always disturb my peace?" He yelled. I know he doesn't have any reply to
Third person point of view:Isabella peeks through the window of the abandoned kitchen, watching How Roman teaches his wife how to cook.A deep glare appeared on her face watching Irina with pure hatred.She wished to wipe that smile off Irina's face.'Why is she happy?' she thought.'She shouldn't be happy.' she thought."What are you doing here?" A voice behind her asked who he made her get frightened to death. She looked back to see her aunt, Kira."Aunty Kira, you frightened me to death." She said breathlessly."What are you doing here?" Kira asked again."Nothing, I was just passing by and I happened to see the two of them inside this kitchen." Isabella mumbled."Is that why you are so scared? I was also coming to see them anyway. What are they doing?" Kira asked her niece."Roman is teaching her how to cook." Isabella reported to her aunt. "I thought about it. I knew the girl can't cook. Roman has been helping her all along." Kira scoffed."Lower your voice or they will hear us
Roman's point of view:"What's going on here?" I asked as I saw my wife and brother holding themselves.They both looked at me with different expressions. Irina was shocked while my brother smirked at me."I am just having a little fun with your wife." Mario said to me as his smirk deepened."As if." Irina scoffed at him as she feely herself from him and walked away."What was that?" I asked him."I was just playing with your wife, chill bro." He chuckled."What were you talking about?" I asked him."I asked her if she could have a little fun with me." She smirked."And what did she say?""What will they say on the first day? They will always reject the offer until you bug them and they finally give in." He shrugged."Don't mess with Irina." I warned him."It is not called messing with, it is called having fun with someone. I am not messing with her as long as she is not complaining or until she moans out my name." I punched him hard without thinking twice.He stumbled back but didn't
Irina's point of view:I went to the gigantic living room and sat down.Dennis called me and I instantly picked it up."Hey, what's up?" I greeted him."I am cool, how are you enjoying your stay there?" He asked."Not cool, I won't lie. Just coping with the situations here." I told him."Yes, the Atono are always like that." He said.I saw Isabella walking towards me. What does she want again?"Is Roman there? His number is not reachable." He asked."No, he is not around me." I answered him.Isabella was just inches away from me, staring deeply at me. She looks like she is interested in the conversation."That jerk! I will try calling him again." He said."So how are you and Sarah?" I asked him."Nice but not preachy. Things are still somehow awkward between us but we are still together." He explained."Just set things right between you guys, okay? I am in support of you." I encouraged him."Thank you, Irina. Let me try him again. Take care.""You too." He hung up after that.Isabella
I woke up and sat down immediately.I first thought I was in heaven,then I realized I would be in hell because of the crimes I committed when I was alive.Everywhere was whole.I adjusted my sight before I saw that someone was leaning against the wall."Water." I said.He passed me water and went back to his position.After I drank water, I rested my back against the bed."Who are you? Where am I?" I asked him, more like whispering."You are in the most secured hospital ever. I am an ex fbi agent. I work alone now. You just woke up from a coma." He explained."What do you want from me?" I asked him."I want you to fully recover and go kill your enemy.""Who?" I asked him."Aron Cavin. He killed you and he also has offended me. He is also somewhere trying to survive because he was shot by Roman Atono after he killed you. He took away my share and implicated me. He made me lose my job as a FBI. I have been on his tail but I realized I can't do it without your help. So I want you to work
Irina's point of view:"My brother is improving in his romantics." Loans whispered at me and I just ignored it.I stood up and went to the stage."How did you get it?" I asked him as I stared at the painting."I used currency." He replied with a smile."Roman." I wanted to talk but nothing came out but his name."Thank you so much. I forgot about the painting already." I hugged him so tight and he hugged me back.We let go of each other and I went to the mic.I breathed into the mic."I am sorry about that." I said to them."So I have nothing to say, he really surprised me tonight." I laughed."Yeah, we started on a rough patch but as time went on, we became best friends. My husband made me the strong woman I am today, you all should know that. He exposed me. Like he said, maybe I was naive at the beginning but he showed me that there is a different world aside from the world I was living in my parent's villa. Shit happened alright, a lot of shit happened to me and it made me stronger
Roman's point of view:I knocked on Irina's door.I knew it was too early for her but I just want to try my luck.She opened the door and poked her head out."Roman?" She said in disbelief."Yeah, it's me." I said in a low tone.I feel nervous. I feel like a teenager that wants to ask my crush out."What are you doing here early in the morning?" She asked."I came to see you.""Why?" She asked."I want to take you back home." I replied to her."Home?" She asked."Yes, home." I replied to her."I thought you didn't want anything between the two of us. You have been avoiding me, Roman."she said."I know. I am so sorry about that. I don't just know how I will go about it.""About what?" She asked in a low voice."I don't know how I will show my face to you knowing that my father caused the death of your brother." I said to her."You also lost your mom as a result of that. It is even." She replied to me. Loana said that!"I am sorry. I was too ashamed of showing my face before you. I am
Three months later:Irina’s point of view:“Change her diapers already.” My mom instructed me.“I will.” I told her. She said it like ten times already.Our children were being discharged two months ago from the hospital and we named them anya and aton.You must be wondering why we named them those names. Roman named our son after my father’s name because of the ultimate respect he has for him and I named our daughter anya so that roman’s mom won’t be forgotten.Anyway, Roman and I haven’t gotten back together. I feel like he has been avoiding me after he found out that his dad is behind the attack.He only comes here when he wants to see the babies and we talk casually. We haven’t been able to talk about ourselves since the incident. He never gave room for that and I didn’t mind it because I also wanted to stay with my parents. I am the only one they have now.So I have to stay with them.Someone knocked on the door."Enter." My mom said to the person. The person I texted and it was .
Irina’s point of view:“I am sorry we lost her.” The doctor informed us after coming out from the emergency room.Roman fell on the ground and as he sat up and held his head so tight to his chest.He kept gasping.He opened his mouth to talk but nothing came out.I rushed to his side and hugged him.His body started shaking.He rested his head on my chest and he started crying.He kept sobbing like a baby.I just hugged him. I couldn’t do anything more than that. I couldn’t console him, nor relieve his pain because I am also battling with my own sorrows.He sobbed but not for a long period of time.I let him go when I realized he wanted to stand up.He stood up and sat on the chair.I sat beside him.He took his phone out as he picked up the call with shaky hands.His eyes were already red.He put the call on the loudspeaker.“Roman, what’s wrong? Why did they all rush home?” That is Mario’s voice.“We were attacked.” He sniffed, trying his hardest not to cry.“Why are you crying?” Ma
Irina’s point of view:The gunshots, screams and curses made me panic so much. Who the fuck know about this vacation?Who the fuck attacked us?I went out of the room; I met roman at the door step. He handed me a gun.“We have been attacked with a lot of men so you should hold this for protection. I am going down now.” He informed me.“Just be safe.” I told him.“I will.” He replied.And with that, he went downstairs.I went back to the room and locked myself in it.But I don’t feel like staying here.I want to help them out. I don’t want to be useless after all.I have a gun with me and it contains bullet. At least I can kill five to six men with it if I am being on target.I should go and help them out.I stood up and went to the door.Then I remembered roman instructed me not to go out of the room.“It doesn’t matter. I am doing this to help him.” I said to myself.I opened the door and went out of the room. I carefully and slowly walked to the staircase. I met loana.“You should h
Irina’s point of view:I heard noises from outside of the room, so I had to go to where the noise is coming from.It was my mom and aunty Kira.“What’s going on here?” I asked loana who was standing at the corner side silently.“Aunty Kira provoked your mom, so she is serving her hot.” She replied as she was focused on the fight.I can’t believe my mom is fighting after we talked this over.“What the fuck is wrong with her? I think we had this already.” I went forward to calm my mom but what she did next shocked me. She splashed the water from the glass on aunty kira.“You know what, I am done here. Anton, let’s go home.” She said as she made her way out of the house.“Mom!” I yelled as I followed her out of the house.She didn’t listen. She went out of the log house angrily to the car.“Mom!” I called her when we got to the car they brought here.“What Irina? What did you want to say? That I disappointed you? I am so sorry but I had to do that. She made me do that. She made me so an
Irina's point of view:Roman was in the bathroom, taking his bath and he told me to pick a cloth for him to wear today.I checked his bag and just took out random clothes and placed it on the bed.It is going to be casual after all. It is not like we are going out.I placed the outfit on the bed and went back to the bag to take his underwear.After that, I almost closed the bag, then I saw unusual things there.Weapons!I thought they made it clear that no one should bring weapons here.It is just a family vacation.He came out of the bathroom just in the.I took out the guns and showed him."I thought they said no weapon, Roman." I said."I can't do without carrying them around, Irina." He dried himself.Where is my brief?' He asked me. dropped the gun inside the bag and threw him his brief.He took away the towel as he wore his briefs and dressed up."At least, you should have stopped them at home." I said to him."Still on that?" He asked me."Yes, their rule is to enjoy life lik
Irina's point of view:"We are back. We brought our squirrel." Loana yelled as she literally ran to the house from the other direction.We were also walking to the house from our direction but in embarrassment.We all got to the house and I sat on the bench due to the fact that I was tired."We got to the house before you." Loana stuck her tongue out at us."Where is your squirrel?" She asked us as she didn't see one with us."Where is yours?" Sophia asked her."It is with Ruslan. Ruslan, show them." She instructed her husband.Ruslan showed us the dead squirrel as he held it up."Of course, they caught one, but we were not able to catch any." Sophia scoffed."You were not able to catch one?" Loana asked in surprise then her lip curved into a smile as stared at our hands.She bursted into laughter"We won." She said to her remaining members."Where is my mom and Lev?" She asked as she looked around."They are coming." I answered herAnd they showed up.Anya and Lev arrived at the hou
