“Can I?” She asked me and I nodded. “Sure you can.” I told her and she moved closer to me with a smile as she planted a little kiss on my lips.“Thanks babe.” She told me with a smile as she walked away from me to the car tbat was at the garage. Apparently, Shawn had come to pick her up again and there was nothing I could do. I couldn’t bring myself to stop her now could I?I sighed as I walked back into the house, I had a lot of planning to do, I wanted to surprise her. A dinner date would be the best way to do so, I decided to myself.“Have you gotten it ready?” I asked my assistant over the phone as I packed my bags, ready to leave for work.“Yes sir, rest assured everything is perfect.” He told me and I smiled to myself.“Good job, Stevenson.” I told him. As I drove to the office, I couldn’t help but think about Ariana and how happy she would look when she saw my surprise. I smiled to myself, she didn’t really value material things but then, the little things one did, things
ARIANA’s POV… For couples, fights were normal and judging from the fact that Raymond had once being a playboy who didn’t have real feeling, this was technically going to be his first real relationship and as such, I understood the things he was going through.I took a deep inhale, he was jealous because myself and Shawn were always together, as friends though and I couldn’t blame him, he just couldn’t bear the thought of me leaving him for another.I never told him but then, every single time he got jealous, it pleased me. I was always happy to know that he cared for me. Him being jealous reminded me constantly that I was his alone and he was only mine.I smiled to myself as I walked into the restroom, I couldn’t take it anymore, the dancing, food, compliments, preparations, they were all making me feel so special and shy and I didn’t think I would be able to stay there any longer without bursting into tears.I took in a deep inhale as I twisted the door knob before walking into the
I gasped in fear and at that moment, my head was grabbed as I was pushed to the wall. I screamed in pain as I slowly fell back to the ground, tears streaming down my cheeks.I held on to my forehead and at that moment, I was hit on the head with a stick. I gasped in pain as even more tears streamed down my cheeks, my vision becoming blurred.I swallowed as I held on to my head, “why are you even doing this?” I asked in tears and one of them chuckled.“Isn’t it obvious? Money.” He said as he moved closer to me, dragging my hair as he bent my head, hurting me even more. I gasped in pain as they slowly took out a bag from the one they had and when I looked, they had taken out a camera.“Wh….what are you trying to do?” I asked in fear.“Will you just shut up?” The leader asked angrily as he kicked me hard in the stomach and I spat out blood immediately as even more tears streamed down my cheeks.I held on to my stomach in pain, it really hurt, a lot. I swallowed as I watched one of the
My eyes slowly opened as I stared at the men who were holding whips against me. I blinked slightly to see the camera that was now in place being focused right against me and the moment I placed my hand to my chest, I felt it that they had already taken my clothes off. I gasped in shock as I immediately placed my hands over my chest.“You monsters!” I yelled in tears as I got up and made to leave when they suddenly dragged me back to theirselves and the one who was the leader started to tuck my hair behind my ear slowly as he blew some air to my face and I looked away, disgusted. I swallowed as I kicked him hard in the crouch and then rushed to the curtain immediately, ripping it off.Before I could scream, I heard Raymond’s voice. He was in the hallway. “Ariana!” He called out and that was when it dawned on me that not only did this curtain stop him from hearing what was happening on the inside, it also stopped us on the inside from knowing what was happening on the outside.I tried
I slowly opened my eyes to see Raymond holding my head. My head was in his laps and he looked so worried.“You’re awake.” He said as he immediately planted a kiss on my forehead. I smiled as I slowly tried to get up despite the unending pain I was feeling in my head. I swallowed in pain as I placed my hand to my neck where I’d being injected and the moment I turned, my eyes widened in shock.“Raymond, where are we?” I asked him as I tried to get up but then he held on to me.“It’s all going to be fine, don’t worry.” He told me as he rubbed my arms.“Tell me, where on earth are we?” I asked him again. The whole place looked really strange and from what I could see, it felt like we were at the top of a building.I could hear struggling and at that moment, I got up and that was where I saw the men who had attacked me. They were on the stairs and the officers were dragging them.Curiosity was getting the best of me at this moment and I immediately rushed to Raymond as I dragged his h
Kira was my sister and even though she had done a lot of bad things in the past, I didn’t want to suspect her but then, she was giving me no reason not to suspect her.I took a deep inhale as I stared at her nervously chop the carrots. It had being two days since that incident at the restaurant happened and it was only today that I decided to confront her about it. “Are you sure, Kira?” I asked her and she chuckled again, more nervously than she looked.“I’m sure, why are you doubting me?” She asked me and I swallowed as I nodded.I wanted to trust her, I really did but then I just couldn’t. I took a deep inhale as I smiled at her. “I trust you, Kira. If you say you don’t know anyone named Josh, I believe you don’t.” I told her as I walked back upstairs.The only reason I had asked her that question was because that day, in the restroom, the first thing I’d heard that person say was Josh and if she was that person, she had to know someone named Josh. I tucked my hair behind my ear.
“Just go, Kira. I’d come to you soon.” I told her as I led Raymond to the bed where I placed his head on my chest.“It’s alright, Raymond.” I told him and he withdrew his head from my chest as he stared at me.“You don’t believe me am I right?” He asked me and I stared at him, what was I supposed to say?At this point, I was stuck between a rock and a hard place because he was the man I loved, my best friend. The most important person in my life and in my life, he was the one I trusted the most but then, on the other hand, Kira.She was my sister and I knew she had done a lot of bad things to myself and Raymond in the past but then she was a changed person now, she was no longer the same person she used to be and I wanted to acknowledge it but with the things that were happening now, I was indeed stuck.Was I to believe that Kira, my own sister wanted to poison me and end my life or was I to believe my guardian angel, Raymond over her?I sighed as I took his hand in mine. “You know I
I chuckled as I walked to him, placed the files on his table as I sat opposite him. “What do you mean by fake doctor?” I asked him and he chuckled as he took off his stethoscope, placing it on the table.“A few days back, some patients came to see me, a woman who claimed to have a brain tumor to be precise as one of them and another, who also had a brain tumor.” He took a deep inhale.“What happened then?” I asked him and he chuckled.“One of those women had come to me some days back, asking me to forge a report for her that stated she was suffering from a tumor and I had refused. She had offered me quite a lot of money but I still rejected it and then, she went to some other doctor. He has being fired though because the hospital came to know of what he did and I learnt that a few days back, that same woman had come with her sister and in law to come see doctor Amish, the one who got fired but then, they learnt he had being transferred so they had to come see me.” He said and at that
