The next day, Lucas's class ended first so he came to pick Barbara who was talking to her friend about something.As she saw him, she excused herself and walked towards him rather excited"I could not believe that you came here." She smiled as he wrapped her hands around Lucas's arm."Do you know, there is going to be a carnival in the city only for three days. I got two tickets. Do you want to go with me?"She asked him who was looking around as he finding someone."Are you looking for Sam?" She asked him who was startled by her question."What? No, of course no." He nervously laughed"Why would I look for her?""That's what I was thinking. Why would you look for her? You better not be."Her tone was a little harsh now making Lucas pulled his arm from her hands. He frowned not liking the way she just talked to him with but Barbara quickly realized her mistake."I did not mean to be rude but...""I have to go now." Lucas turned and left before she could complete what she was going to
"How was the coffee?""It's good. It has a strange taste." Sam put the cup down while Paul smiled."I tried something new with the coffee beans. You should try the cold coffee once you recovered.""I will." Sam gave a nod while Paul took her hands in his."You should be happy. You are too young to have depression...""Paul..." She whined."I should not have tell about this to anyone. I have enough."She pouted making Paul smile."I think, I am getting too many customers today." He got up while Sam also stood up. She wanted to go home while Paul hugged her and kissed her forehead like always."Don't do this. I am not a kid anymore.""You will always be a kid for me."He told her while Sam giggled and came out of the cafe.She walked only a few steps when she saw Lucas and Ronald standing at some distance looking at her with killing expressions.She blinked slowly and then looked around trying to understand why they were standing in her way with that killing expressions."Hey,... don't
"What the hell you two are doing here? Get out of here before I call the police."Anna warned them as she tried to close the door but Lucas put his hand between the door not letttingy her close the door."Please Anna, I know Sam is here. I need to talk to her very urgently. Please let me talk to her just once.""What's there to talk now? She apologized you many times but you never heard anything. You even starting dating Barbara...""I am not dating Barbara. Who is the person that is giving you those fake news?"He asked her in stern tone while Anna pointed towards Ronald who tried to move away from them."I am not dating Barbara. Please, this is all a big misunderstanding caused by this idiot. I never knew I was actually raising a snake..." He glared at Ronald who pouted angrily."Are you sure?""Yes, he is a snake." Lucas nodded while Anna rolled her eyes."I meant... whatever...she is inside my room." Anna could not complete her sentence as Lucas passed near her and ran inside whil
Sam looked at herself in the big mirror and was satisfied with her preparations. She did not forget to fully cover herself as she did not want to get sick in the middle of her first date. The weather was changing fast and was colder each day. She was wearing black skinny jeans with a baggy sweatshirt, hair tied in a ponytail. She came down and found Paul in the house. "Oh Sam, you are already?" He looked at his watch. "Why?" She was confused. "I am taking you on carnival." He told her pitying her for what happened with her. "Excuse me but I don't need you." She flipped her hair as she picked her bag and putting it on her shoulders. "Don't you want to go with me?" "No, I am going with my boyfriend." She proudly informed him and he looked at his father who was reading a book. "You made another boyfriend." He was confused while Sam shook her head. "Not another boyfriend. It's the same." She looked at her watch. "I should go now. He must be waiting for me. Bye..." She quickly
Grace smiled as she picked the big mug of black coffee. Her husband of three years would be wanting his hot and bitter coffee by now and she was fully aware of all his needs. They married three years ago when she nearly lost everything. She had a younger brother living with her by the time. Her parents were good friend with her husband's family. By that time, she only met few times with Skyrim who was mostly abroad for his studies. After the sudden death of her parents, she became aware that the business was not going very well and there was a huge debt left. She still tried hard to survive and that time the White family came to her help. After paying the debt, she had nothing left. She was trying to find a job while her brother was in middle school. Skyrim was pressurized to get marry by his parents so when one day he saw her, he gave her a deal. He was going to take care of her and she only had to act his wife. She took the deal and three years ago they got married. In those
"Yes, get out of my room right now." He gestured towards the door wanted her to leave. Skyrim turned to leave while Grace scoffed. "Y o u ... i m m a t u r e ... p u n k.." She shouted at him who froze at his place. "W h a t... y o u.... j u s t... c a l l e d... m e?" "Yeah, you are an immature punk, you donkey. All these years, I took care of you and this what you are giving to me in return. "Mind your language Grace." "Language my foot. Ask the lawyer to prepare the papers as soon as possible. I also don't want to stay in this marriage any more." She stomped her foot in anger mad left the room while Skyrim was stunned. She never raised her tone in front of him but was also polite. He could not believe his ears after what she called him. After she left, he picked his phone and dialed a number. "Send me the papers against after doing some modification. Grace is not going to get anything from me." He told his lawyer. "I want this done as soon as possible. Send me the papers
"Don't send me anything spicy today." This was the message that Grace got from Skyrim for his lunch. She scoffed looking at the message as the man did not have courage to call her. "What he thinks he is? He just wanted to divorce me but still using me as his maid." Grace was angry but then a smile appeared on her lips. She was going to do what her husband wants her to do. She walked towards the kitchen and took out the ingredients. In the morning, she was not able to cook something for Nomi, but now he was going to be home soon. Nomi was her only family member left in this world. She loved him more than her own life and everything she was doing, was only for Nomi. Skyrim also treated Nomi like his younger brother and this was the only thing that made her love Skyrim. After she was finished cooking, Nomi also entered the house. He was a senior in high school and was about to graduate in a month. "Nomi, quickly freshen up. I made all your favorite spicy food." She smiled as she
Grace served Nomi his food and put the dish back on the table. She didn't think much as she motioned Nomi to start eating."You did not serve Skyrim." He raised his eyebrow as he was noting the strange behavior of the two but was still trying not to intervene in their matter.For them, he was a kid even though he was not.Skyrim, who was quite angry that Grace ignored him again, could not stop his lips curling up. He calmly put his hands under his chin as Grace looked at him and then chuckled."I was going to.And why are you paying so much attention on us. Start eating your food."Grace scolded her as she picked the dish and served Skyrim."A little more." Skyrim added as Grace was out to put the food down. She did not say much but slowly filled his plate."Are you happy now?" She smiled sarcastically while Skyrim looked at the mountain of food in front of him."Your love for me is increasing day by day." He smiled making Grace scoff. She did not know what he was doing and why he wa
Few years later."Mr Harper, Please come to my office with the Y file."The president of the company ordered the CEO while the client sitting in front of her was speechless. He wanted to say something but became quite and few minutes later, the CEO entered the office and sat with him while giving the file to the woman sitting on the other side of the table.Sophia started reading the file and after sometime she gave it back to the man."Next time, being the lawyer with you. I want some changes in the contract."Her voice held so much authority that the man could not say anything and picked the file. If Mr Harper could not say anything to her then who was he.Harper smiled and leaned towards her."What about lunch together?""I have a meeting."She rudely replied and Harper could see she was ignoring him from past few days.He got up and walked towards her. Putting one hand on the chair, he leaned making Sophia look at him rather surprised.Before he could say anything, the door opene
In a week, Sophia was married to Harper. She did not say anything, she did not object. After the marriage, her father had to flew to another country for the transplant and now she was all alone.She was sitting in the room when she saw Harper's car entering the house. She did not see him from past two days since they got married.The door opened and she heard Harper entering the room. Seeing her sitting near the window, Harper's heart ached. He walked towards her and sat on the floor near her but she did not look at him."Sophie...did you eat?"He asked her who did not look at him. "Sophie."This time she looked at him with blank expressions."Why don't you get ready and we can go out for dinner?""Why don't you leave me alone? You wanted to marry me and you succeeded. Now what else you want?"She asked him in a broken tone who lifted his hand and gently put it on her cheek."Sophie, I never wanted to hurt you.""But you did.""It was a mistake. When I approached you I did not want
The next day, Sophia had to shift back to the same house from where they were thrown ten months ago. Her father was happy thinking that Sophia would come out of the miserable life she was living but not Sophia.She did not want to trust the same person again. How can he suddenly wanted to forgive them and let them come back to their original life. She knew he was planning something and she was waiting for his next move."Harper wanted to take you for shopping."Her mother informed her as she entered her room while Sophia sat up and gave a complaining stare to her mother."How can you forget what he did? Do you really believe he forgave dad? I don't think so. He is going to do something again."She tried not to raise her tone while her mother walked towards her and sat near her. She took her hands as if wanted to give her courage."I know. But your dad...He is paying for your dad's transplant and..."Her mother left the sentence in middle while Sophia knew what her mother wanted to sa
Harper angrily threw the file on the wall which had no data for Sophia and her parents. It seemed as if they disappeared from the world. Guilt kept building in his heart. He knew he was going to lose Sophia if he took his revenge but he pushed all the thoughts in the back of his head but now he regretted it.He got up from the seat and went to the big glass as he stared outside in the distance. Suddenly his eyes fell on the people on a platform that were cleaning the windows.For a second, he could not believe his eyes seeing Sophia doing this kind of work. He went to other side of the room that now he was standing in front of her who was spraying the liquid on the window. Now standing this close, he could see all the effects on her that he left in those past months."Sophia..."Gavin called Sophia who turned her head to look at him."Let's go for dinner together tonight."He asked her who pressed her lips together."It will be my treat."He added leaving no way for her to say no. So
Sophia glanced at the big building in front of her hands made fists. The building belonged to his father but not anymore. Now she was here to clean the windows."Let's go partner. We are going to have a lot of fun."A man came near her nad put his arm around her shoulder as he looked at the building."It's quite high. Are you scared of hights?""No."She replied while the man chuckled. He lead her inside and both reached to the roof. They set the things up and wore safety belts.Slowly, Gavin lowered the platform and we're reached to their desired destination. Sofia started cleaning the windows while Gavin was telling her what to do and not to do."You know, this building belonged to Mr Garce before.Don't take me wrong but his daughter was very pretty."Sofia looked at him who was in daze."But she was more pretty inside."He shook his head and picked his things to help Sophia."I wonder what she is doing now."Sophia chuckled wryly. Yes, she was there right with him and he was looki
"You all can leave early today. The boss is coming to check the building and you all can have half day off."The supervisor told everyone while Sophia was happy. She could go home and take some sleep now.She finished her work and was sitting at the side of the pathway when a car stopped the building. The people were arriving to check the building and it means that they can leave now.She sat outside and unwrapped the sandwich. She took a bite and chewed it slowly while wiping the sweat from her forehead.Six months passed and she was going to be jobless soon again but she was waiting for the supervisor who asked her to wait for him.She was not able to eat the sandwich when the supervisor called her. She put the half eaten sandwich and went towards him who was talking to a man."She is Sophia.""She looks weak. I don't think she can do it."The other man scanned her and rejected her on the spot while teg supervisor chuckled."Come on. Do it for me. Moreover, she is very ahrd working.
Sophia's father was getting treatment in the hospital while her mother was taking care of her husband with everything she could do. There was a coldness between Sophia and her mother and Sophia could do nothing to stop it. She made a mistake and she was paying for it.Mrs Grace only let a diamond ring that her husband gave her on their wedding night. She sold the ring and paid the bill of the hospital. After it, they transferred to a small apartment with the remaining money.Sophia changed in a week. She started looking for a job and was able to work as a waitress in a nearby cafe to the apartment. Mrs Grace wanted to start a job but her husband's condition was not very good and he needed someone to take care of him for every second."Please take care of dad.I can work as much as I can."Sophia told her mother before she left for the work. She was working two jobs at a time and would only come home late at night and then would leave early.Time was passing slowly but she was able to
Today was the happiest day for Sophia as her boyfriend of two years was coming to meet her father. She had been dating Harper Blaze from past two years and he proved to be a perfect boyfriend.She picked her phone and dialed the number which was picked immediately."Where are you?""In your house."She heard a car entering the house and quickly turned off the phone. Before going out, she glanced at herself in the big mirror and smiled.There were some sounds coming from outside so she got out of her room and walked outside but the view was enough to make her froze at her place.Her father was holding Harper's feet begging him something which the expressions on Harper's face were not what she used to see everyday He was no longer the kind person she knew but right now he looked like a devil."Your property, your business and your everything belongs to me from now on."Harper kicked her father on his chin making him fall on the floor while Sophia tried not to scream. She wanted to go
Sasha was staring at the necklace. It was cute but looked expensive. "Do you like it?"Dawes asked her making her come out of her thoughts and look at him. She smiled."Yes.""Do you want me to buy it for you?""Yes.""Anything else." He questioned her as he gestured towards manager who came near them."No." She suddenly felt nervous."Why don't you try it first?"He smiled and it seemed like the manager got the idea. He quickly took out the box and placed it in front of Sasha who became more nervous. She was not expecting him to buy this neck for it.He never bought anything for her. Not even a single candy. She was not sure if he had money on him or he was going to do something stupid.Dawes picked the necklace carelessly and put it around her neck. He touched the pink diamond in the middle of the necklace and smiled."You look amazing with this. You better wear it permanently as I am wearing this for you."He showed her the green Jade ring while Sasha stared at him."It looks expe
