"Going on a journey of no return without me?""What the heck are you doing here?" Ida was beyond stunned seeing the person who sat next to her "How did you find me?"Corbin suddenly pulled her to him without warning, earning a light gasp from her "Why did you leave? You thought you could run from me?" he said, trying to suppress the anger in his voice.She tried to stay emotionless as she could be "What do you want for you to just let me go?" she asked."You are forgetting our deal, Ida,""That I can't leave you? How long do you want to keep me as your sex toy, or whatever? I am a lady with dreams." She said, making him scoff."Go into the cracked-up music again?...Damn you Ida, what we shared last night, I th....""It was just fulfilling your normal desires and nothing more Mr. Corbin,""Fvcking say that again and I won't think twice before bending you over this chair, and fulfill my normal desires with the stewards watching...."She tried pulling away from him, but he wouldn't let h
"Meera." Yvonne, Callens mom, walked up to the stunning lady, who had just walked into Yvonne's house.The lady looked young with innocent features, she was an Arabian beauty, with an oval face, full cheek, well-arched brows, and almond-shaped eyes."Aunty Yvonne." Meera let the middle-aged woman pull her into a warm hug."Oh dear, I think I am not dumb after all....I can still remember you, even when you have grown so well, oh my goodness am jealous I wasn't as pretty as this when I was young." Yvonne pouted, pulling away from the hug and Meera chuckled. "You must be kidding aunt." Meera chuckled."How are you coping in Wellington?""Real good aunt, I had a little business here in Dallas, so I thought of coming here, before going back to Wellington. ""That is so thoughtful of you dear, how are your parents?" Yvonne asked."They're good, am sure Mom can't wait to see you also, hundred percent of her talking is all about you." "Uhh poor Tianna.""Uh...Aunt, how about brother Callen?
"Hey," Ida's eyes opened slowly, surprised to see herself in a white room."Cough, cough.""Uh, do you care for water?" she heard a voice in the room, only to see the lady who owned the voice, standing beside her, a look of worry on her face."Where am I?" she weakly asked the beautiful lady beside her."You blacked out in front of my car this afternoon, so I brought you to the nearest hospital around, the doctor said you need more rest for the baby." the lady smiled at her."What baby?" she asked, her brow raised confused."Huh, the doctor said you are pregnant." the lady dropped the bombshell.It felt like everything had stopped moving "Pregnant..." Ida burst out laughing "I almost fell for it, Aww that can't be, I... I still had my flow weeks before... I really can't be." she shook her head."Let me go get the doctor." the lady said, running out of the ward, to go get the doctor.A male doctor walked in with the lady "It's good you are awake." The doctor said walking up to her."Is
Delta was about to take the company's revolving door when a hand suddenly stopped her "Hey." "What are you fvcking doing here?" she pulled her hand out of the masked man's hand."Follow me." his voice suddenly became rough, as he began walking away."Wassup nigga," the masked guy smiled and waved at one of the workers who walked past him."Stop it, you should tell me what you are doing here, what if we get caught?" she whispered behind him, but he didn't reply to her, and continued walking with his hand in his pocket.After walking far enough from the company, he stopped a taxi, pushing Delta inside "Wher..""Just drive." he threw a stack of cash to the driver "I would tell you when to stop.""Just to have a fvcking unreasonable conversation, you made me board a cab with you, what are you up to again?""You know am always up to no good." Delta noticed his cheek which slightly moved up in his mask, knowing he had just smirked.He suddenly pushed her towards him, and in the next minute
HOSPITAL»She got a job, so fvcking easy, Ida was so happy, a well-paying job, better than the coffee shop, better than the hotel."What is your name dear? You look pretty, you look like her, my Hennessy...." Ida smiled at the old woman who held her hand."Hennessy should be a real goddess then...I am Ida, and what is yours?""I am Eliza..""That is a beautiful name, Grandma Eli...""Uhm Ida.." she heard someone call behind her "It would be okay if you call them by their name, and I love the way you talk to her, it's fine because her Hennessy is no more... It is still hard for her to believe it though." her guide, a nurse, disclosed."Oh..." Eliza who still smiled at Ida seems to not have heard what the nurse had said, she felt pity for the old woman 'She was sure if she heard, all the stories of other elders in the room, she was going to cry the shit out.'After she was done talking with Eliza, she went to Marco who was in his late eighties, Marco was a grumpy old man, who only found
In a little garden, a lady ran after a little boy, as they played a game of catch "Catch me if you can mummy." the little boy screamed happily, as he ran towards the gate."Baby stop...don't run outside, wait for mummy" Fear was written all over his mother's face as she ran after him, watching him run out of the gate.The boy was so fast that the woman couldn't keep up with him as he ran into the street "You are making it hard for me to stop mama." he giggled as he continued running.He paused for a while, and when he reached a busy road, he looked back at his mom who was still running to him "Just stay there for me baby, don't try crossing the road" his mother warned.He faced her, waving at her with a beautiful smile on his lips, as he began moving backward toward the road."No!!!!" Ida screamed out of her nightmare, her hand running to her belly, cold sweat breaking out of her body."Oh my goodness." she cupped her head, as tears flowed down her cheek. She weakly got up from the b
DAYS PASSED, and now it was the fifth day, surprisingly Ida's salary doubled, or even tripled, just a little more and she would be able to pay Corbin 'How happy?' that was sarcastic."Callen wants to talk to you Ida, "a little boy tugged on her sleeve, drawing her attention to Callen who stood at the doorstep of the playroom.You could say she had gotten close with Callen, the cold look he wore most times were just facades to his softness.He reminds her of 'him' but there is still something which differentiates 'him' from 'him', they could be identical, but she feels something different when she is with both of 'em.She smiled at Callen who smiled back at her, as he walked towards her "This is from Callen," a kid came running with a rose stick, giving it to Ida."Kids are funny, they think it's one of those child's play they do.." A warm smile etched on Callen's lips, as he took the rose from Ida."Would you put it in Ida's hair?" the kids around them giggled, melting Ida's heart."W
"You both look cool..with the kid, I thought it was a family of three," Delta said, holding Corbin's arm tightly.Ida gave a short smile, she suddenly felt weird, feeling Corbin's gaze on her "Why don't we go find a sit Ida?" Callen smiled, his hand, curling around Ida's waist."Okay. " she smiled back at him "Nice meeting you here Ms. Colorado, and you too brother," Callen said, looking at Corbin who gave out a stiff smile."Uhh wait, I have an idea, why don't we all sit together, like one big family..what do you say, Ida?" Delta asked a deep smile on her face.Ida tried keeping her smile intact 'This babe knows what she was doing, she just wanted to make her feel uncomfortable.'How would she cope, sitting at the same table with 'Corbin'?"Okay." Ida accepted "Callen shouldn't we give Camilla back to her parents?" Ida asked."No.." Camilla pouted, snuggling into Callen's arms.Callen grinned "I told you it's called 'obsession," he said whispering in Ida's ear, as he watched her chuc
A scream of joy filled the hospital after the Reids heard Ida was conceived of a baby boy."Shouldn't we start searching for a name? What about Scott, Scott would be perfect." Lucinda said excitedly, getting a glare from Grandma Reid."Mention that Scott again, and I would be forced to put an 'e' at the beginning, I would escort you out, get it, I don't want to see you with that Scott ever again."Later in the day, the Reids were allowed to see Ida "How was it? Did it really hurt?" Lucinda asked, taking the chair beside Ida, Grandma Reid sitting on the bed close to Ida, petting her hair."It's hurts pretty bad, but it worth it, I don't know what Callen is still doing with him, I want to see my baby again." Ida had a reason to smile now, a reason to keep on waiting that one day Corbin was going to wake up. That day, she got the absolute care she needed from the Reids until her baby was tended to very well, and brought back to her, and was forced to name him "Asher! I don't want to do
"No!!!" Ida's eyes widened, seeing blood seeping from Corbin's chest, his eyes hollow, as he dropped to the ground with her in his arms.Corbin got shot, by Tyson, twice.Callen, breathing came out hurriedly, pain clutches his chest, together with anger for the man lying on the floor holding a gun, who showed no ounce of remorse.The sound of a police siren could be heard outside the warehouse, before Callen rushed at Tyson, grabbing him by his collar, and raining punches on his face "Fvck, how dare you?"Meera runs up to the horrified Ida "Corbin, please stay with me." Ida stayed beside him, as she watched the way he fought to keep his eyes open in her arms."Ida!!" he called with difficulty, as blood slipped past his lips "It hurts, even more seeing you in tears, I never thought we were going to go through this, but if...if it is a son or daughter, make 'em always know I love 'em...." he coughed, staining ida's cloth with blood.The warehouse was suddenly surrounded by police in no
"It was said that a night Kathy was done cleaning Lavinia and Raven's room, when the fvcking bastard Raven walked in, drunk and groggy, and he fvcking rapes the eighteen years old Kathy, who was yet to have a future like me, you can say it runs in the genes 'No Future....' Without mercy, after Lavinia who only cares about luxury, heard what her husband had done with the maid, she threw her out without same mercy, sending her out to the ruthless streets of Texas... Months later, Kathy finds out she is pregnant, and guess what she did? She tells Raven, the fvcking foolish spêrm donator, who goes ahead to tell his fvcked up wife who couldn't give birth on her own, and uses a fvcken surrogate mother..." he raged, letting the last drop of whiskey slid down his throat."Lavinia was after her, trying to kill her and the baby....she got what she wanted after she had bribed the doctor to kill her with the baby, but the evil doctor got rid of the mother, leaving the child, why hadn't he just ta
Ida coughed, before opening her eyes, surprised to find herself in an ice-cold room.Her hand went to her head, which felt like it had been pierced with a thousand needles, she sniffed, when she saw the dried red stain on her hand 'Blood'.'How did she get here?' she asked herself before the memories of what had happened earlier began resurfacing in her head.Her heart tightened, goosebumps all over her body, due to the coldness of the mist-covered room, the smell of fish hit down to her guts, and she felt like puking, before realization dawned on her, she was in a cold room, where fish were stored.As minutes went by, her eyes began getting blurry, as she curled in a certain spot on the floor, the tears sliding down her eyes, had turned cold, with the cold temperature of the room "Help.." her voice sounding less than a whisper, as she clutched on her chest, which she felt was going to tear apart if she doesn't get out of this place "Corbin..." she whispered before her eyes went shut.
Ida's heart stopped beating for a second, her mouth opened and closed lost for words because her brain had shut down 'This was too much...Corbin Reid loves her.'"You don't have to say anything if you don't feel comfortable." He said, noticing how she went stiff in his arms."No, I am fine, I..iam ju...just stunned, I... I can I u..use your washroom." she pushed him a little from her, as she quickly sprang up from the bed.He chuckled softly, as she gathered the coverlet around herself, but before she made for the washroom, he suddenly remembered something "Callen messaged me." he frowned."About?" she asked, as she turned to face him before she could open the washroom door."A baby...he asked if I didn't hurt the baby, what baby?" Ida's eyes dilated after Corbin's question, making her clench hard on the sheet on her body. She sucked in her bottom lips "Last time we were in Dallas, the night I told you I had a dream Corbin, why did you lie you made me use after pills low-key when you
Delta had drunk a lot until she felt groggy "Young miss, your father asked us to escort you home." two burly men in black suits walked up to her in her sober state.She looked up at 'em in teary eyes "Get away from me." she said, as she made to grab the next bottle lying on the table.A loud bang jolted her from the table, and her chin got lifted roughly "She is drunk." Callen whispered "Take her home." he ordered guards who were beside her."I know her, Delta Colorado right?" Meera who stood beside him asked and he nodded."She has always been a pu$$y, even in school.." Callen gave her a confused look "We went to the same high school, and she wasn't the cool type."CORBIN'S MANSION.Ida had taken the role of driving both of 'em to Corbin's house, her breathing coming out heavily, as she drove the car into the gate of the mansion."Fvck, I feel hot." she noticed how Corbin tried his best to stay put beside her.'That pretentious b!tch...' Ida's brow furrowed, as the car stopped in a l
"Be sincere with me Ida, and I would let you go, the time we spent together, doesn't it matter to you Ida?" he tilted her chin, so her eyes could meet his.She didn't respond "Should take as a yes Ida, that it does mat....""It didn't." she said into his face, with lying teeth "It didn't Corbin because I never saw a future for me with you, I was just that girl you had used in her weak state, I was just that girl who you see as nothing but a toy to soften your 'desires ' I was just that one girl you saw as an excuse not to live a good life, I was just that..hmm" her words got stuck in her throat when his lips covered hers.His hand went behind her hair, melting her in a sensual kiss, tears couldn't stop pouring down her cheek, as she let him kiss her without pushing him away.He pulled away, his lips moving to her cheek, kissing her tears away, before he moved up a bit, to look at her ridden face "It does matter then, but now Ida, it's different, do you know how jealous I felt when you
