Becky:The creaking sound of my door woke me up. I had been half asleep the entire time.Alejandro stepped in, holding a glass of milk in his hands."You're awake?" He questioned, putting on the lights. I groaned, sitting upright on the bed. It's been three weeks since everything happened. Three dreadful weeks for me, but throughout this period, Alejandro was there for me.I was discharged from the hospital about a week ago, but I still haven't recovered from the pain of losing another baby. Mentally, I don't think I'll ever be okay. Each day I spend with Alejandro is filled with pain.I don't want him seeing my weak self. He stays with me all the time. Whenever I'm alone, all I think about is taking my life. I saw no reason to live anymore.What else could I ever want. Mom is in prison. It breaks my heart to know all what she did in the past. No wonder she hated Sarah to her bones, and never saw Sarah as a daughter.I had this feeling dad knew about all of it as well.I wasn't his da
Hayden: For the second time, a punch was heavily landed on the bastard's face by me. He spat out blood as he fell on the floor. I had promised to bring out blood from him, but that wasn't still enough.Ray held me back, but I kept struggling to go meet the bastard who was still laughing and getting furious even more."That's enough, Hayden." If rage could kill, then this fucking bastard would have been dead the very moment I had received that call.He was taken back to his cell while Ray and I took our seats."Take it easy Mr Smith, we're really trying our best to ensure that your wife stays safe.""Thank you." I replied, with Ray massaging the hand I had used to punch the fool."What about the body?" Ray questioned."Ohhh, please follow me. We found a body in the river tonight, but the bad news is this."He opened the door where the corpse was and we stepped in wondering what the bed news could have been.A white cover was taken off from the body."Oh, shit. Gross." Ray yelled, nea
Becky:I opened my eyes slowly, looking around. Alejandro was in, and he was staring at me as he sat on a couch close to the window."How long have you been here?" I asked, seeing the tired look on his face. His eyes were so heavy that even from the far distance where I was, I could see it."Let's say 20 minutes."A fucking lie.I knew he was lying. His face shows it all. I could tell by it that he had been here the entire night. He didn't sleep because he was watching me the entire night, and this has been going on for days now. No! Since the very first day I was discharged from the hospital.How long was he going to keep doing this? He might break down one day because of me."Alejandro." I called softly, sitting upright on the bed."Yes." He replied, but I didn't respond immediately. I kept staring at him and wondering why he was doing all of this. I wasn't his wife, but it was really obvious he had feelings for me.Unfortunately, I can't give love another chance. When I was in love
Sarah:We were all together, laughing and talking about so many things. Becky and I were mostly talking to each other about how Hayden and Alejandro tried hard taking care of us.Most times, we make it even funnier by talking about their hard times during this period, and other times we make it emotional by talking about the emotional times or the sad times.Hayden and Alejandro would listen and chuckle at every word we said.I never wished for more.A complete family, I got it even though none of our parents were here.We were all having the best of time here, and since 3 weeks the day of the incident, I've never felt this happy before.Seeing Becky happy with Alejandro, makes me even happier. I had thought she would find it hard to love again since the whole issue about Clark, but I guess I was wrong. The smile on her face this time around, she never had it around Clark.There was a whole new Becky in there, and I could see it.I stared at Alejandro.The look in his eyes tells and s
Sarah:As soon as we got home, Hayden held my waist tight and slammed his lips against mine."Not here for goodness sake anyone could…" Before I could complete my statement, Kira came out from the room and I immediately slapped Hayden's hands away from my body. He gave him a boring look while standing still at his spot."I…I should.. I'll head back." She turned and walked back into the room before I could say a word to her. I turned and fixed my gaze at Hayden."Are you happy?""Not yet." He replied and immediately swept me off my feet into his arms."Hayden… hey… put me down Hayden." I kept yelling as he walked up the staircase. He unlocked the door and walked in with me still on his shoulders. He placed me on the bed and immediately pulled off his jean jacket."You weigh a lot."The smile on my face immediately faded as he teased me."Are you trying to say I'm fat?""Are you?" He whispered back to me." Heyyyy." As I raised my hand to hit his chest, he held it and made me lay on the
Sarah:Hayden and I got ready to go to the station so I would have a word with the man who had tried to kill me, and of course, I needed to see Clark's corpse for myself. I wore a black gown and long matching heels.We got to the car and Hayden drove out immediately. Throughout the ride, I had a lot going on in my mind. It was still very hard to believe Clark was dead. I wanted to tell Becky about it, but I guess I shouldn't even remind her about Clark. He's gone, and it's for good."Are you ready?" Hayden questioned as his car halted right in front of our destination. I heaved deeply and then nodded my head. He touched my hands and squeezed it in his as a sign of encouragement."If you don't want to then I can…""I do Hayden, I must."I opened the door and stepped down from it.As I looked around, all I could see was Clark's face. I needed to be strong and get over him already. Hayden held my hand and we both walked in. When the DPO saw me, he smiled, and I returned it."Mrs Smith,
Becky:I woke up and snuggled myself around Alejandro. It was nice having him by my side, and I felt warm. He was still asleep. I lifted my head up to stare at his sleeping figure. Only God knows how much I wanted to stay with this manBut, I can't. I was afraid to do so. I was afraid of myself. I was a bad woman and I could hurt him. I've done so many bad things, and I believe Alejandro deserves better.I suddenly recalled the first day we had met in the elevator. The look he gave me. He had smiled at me when it was just his first time knowing me. I guess what was love at first sight. I laid on his chest, cuddling him.I still couldn't stay, but I couldn't make him have a great time before leaving. He raised my head and kissed my forehead while I chuckled. Last night, I had a great time. It was a feeling I never had with Clark- it was special and I'll hold that feeling dear to my heart forever."Good morning." I greeted Alejandro."Morning." He replied.As I rested back on his chest
Sarah: The charge's against him were dropped. Though I still couldn't remember him, or the lady he had called Violet, I had this feeling we met in the past as well. Hayden and I stepped out of the station."Take care of him, and make sure he gets released soon." Hayden informed the DPO before coming to meet me in the car. He still didn't understand what was happening, and why I suddenly changed my mind after stepping out from that place.I rubbed the tears on my face clean and sniffled as I watched Hayden come closer to me. "We need to talk, Sarah, what's going on, and what happened in there?"I folded my hands, trying to hold back my tears, but it was impossible. He sighed and hugged me tight. "You can tell me all about it later, let's go home." We had so many plans and places to visit today, but I didn't feel like it anymore. I needed the time and space for myself to think.It hurts me even more that I was involved with Clark, and that I was so blinded to notice the kind of man he
