Maybe I am the problem, perhaps if Katherine was here she will know exactly what to do, perhaps she had everything figured out and that was the reason she was ready to take in all thingsBut I am dumb, I do not know how the world works and there is no one I can talk to right now that won't see me as being insane for saying something like this, so I have to buckle everything inside of meI sat on the bed, tired, frustrated, and feeling like the world's biggest failure. I still have no idea why I was here, and yet, I am messing up everything.A knock sounded on my door. As I raised my head, it pushed open and Claudia strolled in“My love” She walked to the bed and kissed my cheeks as I lay flat on the bed, unmoving“Hey, are you alright? What is wrong??” She asked, her voice and face filled with concern as she settled down beside me.She touched my forehead and my face as she looked down to see if I was fine.But I didn't move as I just lay there and tired, there was absolutely nothing
Does he know something? Why is the look in his eyes telling me that he knows exactly what I am hiding and only needs it to be uncovered by me…“The truth is that I made a mistake, okay? And the only way to come out of this is if we work together” his eyes closed as the words flew off my mouth, he didn’t want to hear that part.When he opened his eyes they were accusing, filled with so much hatred that I could take in“Fix this” he merely uttered as he walked outI watched him walk away and only but have to look, look for the solutions within me, but then no matter how much and how long I search for I know that isn’t going to happen“What was that?” Claudia walked back into the room, her eyes roaming to the back as her hands were clenched together exhibiting shock.There was nothing to say to her, so I fell back to the bed, coupled with everyone else this was her fault as well.“Maybe if you were a little less greedy then all this wouldn’t have happened” I muttered She shot me a quizz
I pushed the door forcefully open, and his eyes shot up as they stared at me in shock“What the fuck….”“Before you start this, which I don't have time for, I need to speak to you about something” His eyes moved away from my head, and they are scanning meYes, I look like a retard person because I haven't slept a wink since I have spent two days thinking of plans that we could work withAnd I don't care how much he despises me right now, but I am still going to speak to him about this“You know how crazy you look right now? Did you walk in through my lounge looking like that??”He gave me a disapproved look but instead of dwelling on that, I walked inside and sat down on the chair in front of himI was still wearing my nightgown, well covered and black with flip-flops and my hair looked so crazy as it scattered and wore down on my shoulderI'm not concerned with how crazy I look, as I said before“Maybe when I come looking like this you will finally reply to me since after all you ha
The next few days I got my shit together and thought hard about what to do, now I am sitting in front of my phone and thinking of what to say in the call that I have planned out alreadyThe vacation location has been booked and the plans to take the kids with us are already underwayThis got me almost too excited, but then I knew it was just part of the work that we are doing, the work meaning the planI heard the sound of the door but already knew who it was, and he walked until he came and sat down opposite me.“How is it going??” He dropped something on my desk and I picked it up, my eyes scanning the phone.“I haven't dialed it yet, so I'm just waiting, what is this??” I picked the envelope up and when I opened it, it contained the passport for the kids.“The kids are ready and so am I, tomorrow??” He asked.There was no need to get a confirmation from me, hell I am ready as long as it is the country I have in mindI flipped through Blue Passport and, yes, surprisingly it was“Ha
We strolled into the hotel together while he held my arms. In this location, I've never let go of him.Damien will slyly mutter things to me, and despite the fact that they are absurd, I will still blush a lot.Everything became so simple since I was crushing on him; all he had to do was let a finger rest on my waist to make my cheeks swelter.I'd say my current state is "hot and bothered."We entered and I saw the workers sprinting together once they had all lined up.Before he turned his head away, I smiled and flushed as he stared down at me.Everyone appears to have stopped moving, and there is a strange quietness throughout the entire area."Welcome back, Mr. and Mrs. Anderson" We stopped walking and a younger-looking man in his early 30s greeted us.He smiled at me and said, "Thank you, Peter, it feels nice to be back here.He bowed to greet Damien and said, "I am so happy that we were able to host you and seeing how big of a family you are now, thank you so much sir."I'm not f
DAMIENThe whole place was cozy, especially how I wanted it to be.For an anniversary that we both didn't want to participate but if that will give us what we wanted, why notI held her arms as I spot the cameraman from another direction and looked down at her as she smiled so brightly at meHer lips curled into one of her teasing smiles, the one I am beginning to like far too muchShe wore a strapless dress that fell to her knees, the goldness of the dress shone so bright, making the color that comes off from the light enhance the beauty she portrays.Her face shines from the light emanating from the high ceilings, and she has never looked that beautiful before.As we walked into the place I can see so many eyes on her, I can see people taking out their phones and taking pictures of us, that was the kind of couple that we areShe is the kind of person that commands so much attention when she wants to shine and by buying this dress she knows exactly what she was doing“I cannot believ
KATHERINEIt was supposed to be a fun-filled day at the beach where we have the best time on the vacation and laugh as much as we wanted, but right now, that smile has been wiped from our faces“What do you mean, she is not with you? I remember leaving her here when I met someone” he asked again, his hands akimbo as he glared hard at me.I am trying not to be skittish in the way his eyes are hardened on me and trying my best to be cool, but I cannot“I know you left her with me, okay? But I thought you were just.....”“You thought what?” He snapped “Just a little minute I said you should take care of your child, and you can't even do it” he screamed out and tapped his ears as he turned back.He must have spoken to someone before he turned back to meMy whole body feels like I have been running a marathon forever, this sweats that my body is producing right now is too much“Just hope for the love of God that I find her” With that, he turned away, and I stood perfectly still staring at
The house is in motion as everyone is arranging things for the dinner that is about to take place. Most of all, Damien is overly busy, as, for some reason known to him, he wants to make it perfect. Already done with everything inside the room, I came outside, surprised with how well everything was turning out“Ah you are finally outside” I turned around to see Frank sitting beside the pool as he dipped his leg into the water, it looked like he was looking ahead of me, but he was looking straight at meI sighed softly and walked to where he was sitting and settled down beside himI wore a heel and didn't bother to dip my leg into the pool.“I heard what happened today,” he saidOf course, he knows, Damien practically tells him everything, which means he must have told him about the plans that we have embarked on, or hasn't he?“As you can see, she was later found, which is very important." I tried to keep my voice calm as I said thisHe nodded beside me before dipping his legs deeper
EPILOGUE (DAISY)My favorite time of the day is waking up snuggled into his arms. He always holds me so hard to his body that I can barely move and once I try to escape from his hold he will push me back to himself. That always brings so much smile to my face, so much happiness that I can't begin to mention. “Are you awake?” His sleepy voice asked, and I tried to pretend I was still sleeping as I closed my eyes tight.“I could hear your thoughts so wild, and you know….”Laughter bubbled out of me as he tickled me “Stop it” I yelled, pushing his hands away from me as he got a hold of me and was still tickling me so badly. “Say please,” he said while still tickling me so hard that my chest hurt. “Never” I pushed his hand away, trying to stand from the bed, but he was so strong, and he caught me before I even escaped. “Okay, please Damien, please” His hand softened as he held me to himself. We are still on the bed now and panting a little from the play that we had just engaged i
I hated that smell, which was the first thing that hit me. Groaning, I am turning around as I hear a sharp noise and my attention is on the faces that are looking at me. They are so familiar. Someone with white rushed to where I was lying down on a bed, and the rest of the faces looked like they were waiting for a verdict from him. He said something and the rest of them disappeared. He was the only one in the room as he examined me. Furthermore, he held my eyes open and searched inside, bringing out a touch of light as he scanned inside my eyes. I wish I could see what he is doing, I wish I knew what the hell I am doing here. Finally, the sounds that rang in my head went away, and now I am staring into his face. “Are you okay? Do I feel pain anywhere? Mr. Anderson” He said, looking into my eyes. This man knew me, am I, Mr. Anderson?I couldn't seem to think of anything else as I just looked at him. He motioned to someone, and they came to where he was standing. He took a syr
DAISYWhat are they up to? I was left alone for a while in my solitude when the door opened, and he was the only one who came back inside. Not a noise was heard on my part as I let him walk to where I was still tied. He looked at me without saying a word. His eyes were unpleasant, they almost reminded me of the Kenny that I had seen before, the one I went somewhere in my mind.“I see you are proving stubborn,” he said as his eyes went down to the food that lay beside me. I would rather not have a taste of even water from this place, I didn’t want to take anything that was theirs.“You are going to remain here for a very, very long time, so you better get used to it” he regarded me sternly before turning around.As he walked away, my eyes were fixed on his back, they were stiff.The last time my eyes held him, they were hiding something, his stiff back was hiding something.Now I wonder what this is about. It is very much obvious that he isn’t working alone, he neither has the money
My eyes bulged in shock at the person who stood there. I wasn't expecting to see him, I wasn't expecting to look at him right now as he stood there and gazed heartily at me. Of course, it was a fake smile, nothing was real about the fact that he had me locked here and now smiling at me. “Well well it seems I have finally had that audience with you” he grinned as he came closer. I tried saying something as anger welled up inside of me. My mouth was gagged, I could not say a word and even when I tried moving, of course, I was tied up. He walked closer and then stood meters away from me as I shrieked and made noises wanting to move away from here. I wanted to smack my hand right across his face, Kenny, why will Kenny keep me locked here? “I mean, why are you looking so shocked? You think I was going to let you off like that? You embarrassed me with that divorce letter and what? You are going off another person almost immediately” He laughed again and nodded to the person beside me.
DAMIENI checked the time again and again, but there was no still sight of her, and it was getting so late. Walking outside, I stood in front of the door and looked at the gate, hoping for it to open and for her to walk towards me, but as I stood, there was not a sign of her, this has me so worried. Not only have I been standing here, but I have tried the phone a thousand times, and it keeps going to voicemail, and I am legit worried. Calling my assistant, I demanded her friend's number as I had tried to search for it but didn't see it. She picked at the second ring. “Is Daisy there with you?” Once the greetings were over, I asked her.“No, she went back home like three hours ago, she said she wanted to get some groceries on her way home, and then I waited for her call but she still hadn't answered me. Is everything alright?”I have to tell her things are good before ending the call. She went to get groceries three hours ago and isn't back yet. There was only one place where she
Katherine“It can’t be.” The same widened eyes and gasp that came from Juanita was the same on my face as soon as I had seen the name.“How does that even make sense? They are not fucking married” I yelled so loud into the air like that was where my anger was, and I was directing it at that.This was so painful and annoying at the same time, this wasn’t how it was supposed to be.It was meant to be one of my children and in that way, I can claim every single thing he ever owned, but now it isn’t. I turned to Bluey who looked at us with widened eyes and I walked to where she was seated.“I have called someone that will take you back to your father, you and each one of you I don’t need in my life, now when they are here, you get out of this house because you are so very useless to me” I could see the tears that began forming in her eyes, but that has and would never be a concern of mine.I wasn’t interested in marriage or even kids until he came and proclaimed thousands of love and wi
DAISY“She can't be here.” I looked outside again and yes, the person who was grinning tightly as she cracked her head on the door was her, how dare she step into this place?I knew it wasn't my place to let her stand outside, especially when she was with Thompson, so I unlocked the door, and she let him in first. He hugged me tightly before running off to find his siblings. The door was still half open when she stepped inside. “Look who we have here, the new mother.” Her eyes twinkled from what she had just said as she stepped inside and looked around first, “Seems the father isn't here yet.” Thinking it was some funny joke that had just been told, she laughed. My face is still tightened, and my lips are pressed into thin lines as I refuse even the slightest expression to drop from my face. “What do you want?” I asked her to step more into the house, and she closed the door and followed me. I sat down on the couch, and she didn't, obviously preferring to stand. “I don't care h
DAISYA month and I am still pissed at Damien for what he did, he had assured me he knew exactly what he was doing. Today is the day that we get to see Thompson again. I was excited as I walked around the kitchen preparing his food. The others are in the kitchen as well, making the place very lively. The sweet thing about spending all the time in Damien's place is that Bluey had gotten to trust me. She likes me so very much now and always wants to be in the same space with me. “I want to know how to cook like you, Daisy,” she said from the kitchen table where I had placed her and Kai as they played. “That is easy" I grinned at her while continuing the cooking. “Wow here smells amazing” Damien walked into the kitchen looking at the mess that we had created. He laughed before dropping his bag on the table and walked to where the kids were. “My lovelies” He blessed them with thousands of kisses before walking up to me. My whole body tingled as he stood at my back. “You there,
DAMIENI was sitting in the office checking out all the work that I had missed plus thinking about the meeting and how it didn't go to my favor when the door banged open. “I said that you should.....” My assistant stood in front of the door as she tried to stop someone from getting inside, but she pushed her aside, and it was Katherine. “I have told you already that you will not stop me from seeing him, quite all this shit,” She said as she pushed herself inside and then looked at me. The weather was hot plus the whole place was sweaty and seeing her here already made the day worse than it already was. “She is already inside, you can go now,” I said to my assistant, who gave Katherine the longest of the eye stare before she pushed the door and left. Katherine smirked as she walked to the seats and pushed it open, settling down. “What do we have here? You seem to be in the wrong mood today” She grinned as she couldn't keep the fake smile away from her face. I had a terrible morn
