Chapter: 27.*****David banged and kicked at the door. Yelling for Raya or anyone else to open the door for him. 45 minutes later and he was still locked up in there. Frustrated and tired. Steven would be waiting for him right now. He cursed, stood up, and marched to the door, a few seconds later after kicking at the door none stop, it flew open. He picked up his phone and credit cards and walked out of the door. He was certain he wouldn't be coming back here in a long ass time. David got to the living room and found Raya crawled up in a ball on the sofa. He was too upset to stop and ask her any questions. So he went for the front door, one hand on the handle and his phone vibrated in his pocket. He swore and reached for it, an unknown caller ID. He pressed it to his ear and waited. "Who is this?" "This is Doctor Shepard, you seem to be the last person who called Steven's line."Steven? Doctor? David's heart was thundering in his chest like it would fly out at any moment."Yes, Ste
Chapter: 28.******Once all the formalities had been completed and the police had finished their inquiries. Dr. Shepard sat slumped in his chair. He was beyond exhausted, the surgery was a success. But that was far from his worries at the moment. He still couldn't get himself to understand the reason why such a promising young man would take such a drastic decision, in just a blink of an eye. Shepard rubbed at his temple, his brain was harming in his head. Remembering the letters David threw in his hands. He searched for them until he found where he stacked them in. He brought them out and dropped them on his table while looking through each of them. They seem to be addressed to different persons. He sorts through them and found the one that has his name on it. With trembling hands and shaky breaths, he opened to read.Doctor Shepard. I'm sure by the time you're reading through this, that the transplant must have been a success. I have absolute faith in you, doctor and I hel
Chapter: 29.******Mrs. Roseline just got off the phone with Raya, who has been crying her eyes off none stop on the phone, while telling her about David and Steven's secret affairs. It was shocking news to take in, never had she thought their closeness would get to this. But some were along this long run, she had known. It took them quite a long time to get to this point. Mrs. Roseline did what every mother would and tried her best to make Raya stop crying while promising to call her son to come to see her at once since he was in town. She knew the boys have been close this past few months, but then again, she couldn't remember a time, when they haven't been that way. She turned on her heels and was about to go into her room when one of her maids called."What do you want?" Roseline asked exhausted."This just came in for you, madam." The maid said, handing a package to her. Roseline unwrapped it and hissed when she saw it was a letter. "Do people still leave these?" She wondered.
Chapter: 30.******“Mrs. Mebel you really should stop crying, this isn't good for your health," Stella begged for the umpteenth time that day. She hated seeing any of them hurt this way, she is as a Mother to Mebel and a Grandmother to Steven, they are her family since she has none. Mrs. Mebel has been broken since yesterday she had that argument with her son. Steven had left home and not come back. She regretted the way she handled the situation. Steven is her only son. He just came out to her, which is very difficult to do, and yet she had pushed and pushed until he left. If only he would call her and come back home. She would tell him she was sorry for calling him names and hurting him. She would tell him to go on and love whomever he wants, that she's in support of him."Madame," Stella called handing a package to Mrs. Mebel, calling her attention for once. Mebel made Stella open the package and brought out a letter from it. "It's for you," Stella said giving her to read. She st
Chapter: 31.*****“I hate home works," Lily mumbled again, she has been trying none stop to solve this particular math problem that is really starting to annoy her, she hates the subject and now she can't help but hate it even more."Stop saying that sweety, you'll get it in time." Alice encouraged, walking into her daughter's bedroom, with a letter in hand."What is that?" Lily asked, throwing her books aside and sitting up to face her mother."I think is a letter, with our names written on it." Alice sat beside her daughter on the bed."A letter?" Lily whispered. "From whom?""I have no idea. Want me to read?" Alice asked, with a nod from lily she tore the envelope open and began reading. Hey Family.I know what you're thinking. Who is this stranger? Well, I can assure you, that I am no stranger. It's me, David. How are you, Lily? I want you to do me a great favor. I need you to take care of your uncle Steven for me. I know you love him and am glad he has you to look after him now
Chapter: 32.******Raya kept turning and tossing on her bed. She knew something wasn't right, she felt sweaty and out of breath. She sat up quickly and climbed out of bed, leaving the bedroom. it has been four days since David left her to go see that Steven. She cursed and slammed her coffee cup on the table, winching as the hot content spilled on her hand. She cursed and took a towel, furiously wiping at her hand, when a maid came into the dining room. The maid stretched out her hand offering her a letter."What is that?" She inquired dejectedly."It came in for you ma." The maid said, dropping it on the table as instructed and she left. Raya gave a bitter smile and tore through the envelope...Hello Raya...Congratulations baby you did a good job, I must commend you. To think that Steven loves you so much and was ready to share. If he had given the word. I would have left you a long time ago. But he didn't want that. He loves you so much that he couldn't bear the thoughts of ever h
Chapter: 33.******Steven had just woken up to the blinding lights that seem to pierce his very soul, he felt weak and tired.What had happened to me? He wondered, his vision blurry, memory fleeting. He couldn't remember a thing. With much struggle, he sat up and looked around him. Well, wherever he was is most certainly not his bedroom. Steven looked down at his clothing and discovered they were that of a hospital gown.What the fuck! He mentally yelled. Where the heck is David? His heart was throbbing in his chest. Panic getting ahold of him. Steven wanted to call out for help, but his voice came out like that of a broken record. He couldn't hear his own voice.God, what is going on? He could feel his eyes going misty. He was going to cry. He didn't know why he was filled with agony. The feeling of loss was too profound that his head couldn't understand it. Somehow he felt like a newborn like he's never seen the word before. He seems not to have a memory of where he was and what ha
Chapter: 34.*******Steven went back to reading, the words blurry but he tired. Whatever was going on, would be explained by this note. So he read. Hey baby! I know what you’re thinking right now, don't worry too much I'll tell you everything. God, I'll miss you so much! I'm so sorry for what happened. Raya had you shot and you were going to die from excessive bleeding in your chest. I couldn't let that happen, baby, so I-I. God, this is so difficult to write. Steven, I shot myself so you could have a change of heart. That's right baby, I gave you my heart. See! You're not totally alone. You've got me, forever. Living inside of you. That's where I belong. That's home. That's where I am meant to be.I'm sorry if you don't understand any of this, but in time you'll do. Go on living for me baby. Please!I need you to stay alive, for me. For us.You're my world, Steven. The sex, love and all that we shared would always be a memory I'd die for over and over and over again. And I m

Chapter: 26.*******It's been three weeks since David got back home. The very day he came back, Raya had greeted him with the worst kind of news ever. She had told him she lost their baby. David was beyond shocked and sad. The last time he had spoken to the doctor, she did tell him that Raya was losing weight, but anything other than that was absolutely fine. The baby was fine. And now she said she lost it. He blamed himself for leaving her alone for so long, for making her worry. He blamed himself for the loss of their child. And he wanted to make it up to her. Once he returned from work, he'd stay home with her. Doing all he could to make her happy, watching her favorite shows, taking her to her favorite outing place. Raya has also been sick for a few days now, she seems to be getting these headaches frequently. He is such a bad husband to Raya, a terrible father to their dead child, the worst kind of lover to Steven, and probably the most horrible son ever. He had made mistakes, a
