Chapter One hundred and twenty twoDesiree I walked out of the hospital feeling confident that I had finally checked off something on my list, going for a prenatal registration checked.Next stop- Getting supplies for my first fashion project.I walked alongside a few other pregnant women who also came for their appointments.The appointment went really well no bad feeling no bad vibes from the doctors and most especially my doctor happened to be a lady.I flagged down an Uber that would take me to the store where I need to get the materials.As I got into t the Uber I couldn't help but to admire the city once more, very reflective glass, nice infrastructure and beautiful scenery.“The city is beautiful isn't it?” The Uber dropped very suddenly. I looked back at him just to see that he was staring back at me in the rear view mirror.“It is, it is very beautiful!”.I agreed.This was the first time I was going to be voicing out and making a good conversation with an Uber driver.

Chapter One hundred and twenty three KillianI packed up the box and backed off from it, pictures, evidence and s whole lot more were sent to me in that box and I started to wonder.Who took all these pictures and how was the evidence found?I paced back and forth trying to understand what kind of situation I was in. After how many years???That was ALMOST 20 years back!!!!!I picked up my phone and dialled Raphael..“Hey, I have something to tell you!” I voiced“I know, didn't you see the letter in the box that was sent to you?” Raphael reported his voice very low and unlively.I was shocked how he knew about the box.“How….“I got mine last night!” He revealed.I could already tell that he wasn't going to be able to sleep.“Gwen can't know, luckily she went to see her parents in the Bahamas!” Raphael revealed.I could tell he was very much stressed out.“But after twenty years though!” He whined again.Him not telling Gwen might sound like a good thing but it was not the best idea
Chapter One hundred and twenty fourDesiree.“How do you know?” he asked seeming quite intimidated…I scoffed inwardly.“I was also in the lacrosse team in high school!” I simply replied.There was a hint of shock on his face but he remained calm.“A lady in lacrosse, weren't you supposed to be in the cheerleading team or something!” He asked as Mason just stared from afar, he also didn't know I played lacrosse, I never told him.“I didn't want to!” I simply replied.The guy looked back at mason who just stood there and smiled counting his money off the counter.“I will only believe you if you agree to a challenge with me,???I stared out the window trying hard not to pull him closer and slap him, but thenMason jumped in his tracks Once he heard about the duo challenge.“Accepted!” I voiced, sounding very prepared and ready to hut“No no. no, thank you so much!” Mason disappeared between I and this high school kid, I looked at him as he did so “Well nothing is accepted okay, can't y
Chapter One hundred and twenty fiveDesireeWe walked home tired, we both held our bags lifelessly.I ended up making a lot of friends, including those that would want me to be their personal trainer .“You could make a ton of money from just training that amount of people!” “Really I know right but I can't not when I'm resuming work soon“Hmm!”“But it's more fun meeting new peeps!” I admitted.After a while we arrived at our apartment building and went our separate ways.“I just wanted to tell you that you were amazing today and I can't wait to tell my girlfriend how wonderful you are today!” Mason returned expressing himself one more time.I just smiled at him because I was already tired from within.He headed back to his apartment and I shut the door entering mine.Slumping into the sofa I took in a deep breath and a beautiful smile ran beautifully across my face. I had fun, the most fun I hadn't had in a long time.The shoe dangle freely out of my hands as I lazily sat there t
Chapter One hundred and Twenty sixKillianNothing seemed to be working or was putting me to sleep. I laid down on my bed staring into the ceiling counting how many times my heart had jumped randomly, when I thought about the box and whoever it was that sent it.“Makes me wonder if this person did their research really well!” I thought back to that time and honestly I could tell from Liam's reaction that he was so uneasy, nobody knew about this accept for I Liam and my brother Raphael, we all covered up the body, we all disposed off this case cause we had so much trust for Liam, that he wouldn't do anything like that and besides what was the other guy doing at Liam's.The other guy who had threatened him, told Liam that he was going to come for him in all ways.We didn't ask Liam anything again from that night. Everyone of us just kept mute but we knew deep down he wouldn't do that and it wasn't long until his parents relocated and they just sort of left the country.Thinking of it n
Chapter One hundred and twenty seven Killian…Her beautiful face popped up and I couldn't take in my surprise..“Are you okay” one of the two ladies asked seeing my reaction.“Oh yes I am she just looks kinda familiar!” I replied.It was really her…He sipped in his coffee trying to calm his breathing down, he never knew he hard it was and how he had been scaling through without seeing her for while and him seeing her made him realise that he was indeed coping only by God's strength.I recalled how swift she moved on ice. Now Iknew why she said she loved to ice skate.I wanted so much to rewatch the videos but I COULDN'T further disturb the two ladies who were taking their coffee quietly and peacefully.I picked up my phone and started scrolling the whole internet to find her.Just when I had seen the video a call came in through my phone and I had picked up the call before realising that it was a private number.“Hello?” “What if I made her dance to my tunes like that, Killian!”.T
Chapter One hundred twenty eight Sometimes not all gifts are gifts, they are warning signs to either run or stay right where you are, either way you have to recognise which is which.. I don't know why this was the first thing that came to mind when I first saw the teddy bear at my doorstep, no name, no indication of where it came from , it just sort of appeared out of nowhere. But those words kept ringing like a bell in my ears and the more I tried to push it down the more it resurfaced and just became louder by the minute. “What do I do with this?” I wondered to myself fighting the urge to not to take the teddy into my house and make it mine. I mean after all it was delivered to my doorstep, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. The first sign I saw to not take this in, was the fact that this wasn't something I really fancied I never liked teddy bears since I was a kid, it something about this teddy kept tempting me “Tempting?” I retraced my thoughts back… Why does it
Chapter One hundred twenty nineKillian Nothing absolutely beats the taste of ice cream as a desser, my unpopular opinion..“Hmm unpopular!” I thought againI tried to under or rather remember something unpopular I had seen withing that weak, I knew I saw something unpopular but I just couldn't wrap my hands around.A lot of weird things had happened withing just one week, from me getting a box filled with concrete evidences and also we gettkik stalked but a friendly enemy also seeing a guy in hoodie who called me like a maniac tbat he is, a really weird week it had been.I comfortably took another scoop of my ice cream and just downed it…But that word unpopular wouldn't leave my brianeven for a second.This wasn't even the first time of heaurb this word it just seemed to stick to me like the ink of my hands after I had gone messy with it in my book.Wait….“Ink…. unpopular!” I whispered again to myself this time out loud.I hadn't seen a ink in ages…But I felt like I had seen one
