REINA

We both froze and stood still. I recognised that voice. I sure did.

“Ravenna! What are you doing here? You should be at the launch. In the hall,” Ethan said, almost stuttering in between words.

I was getting embarrassed on his behalf. But, my fear was greater than his embarrassment.

I was scared of what Ravenna was going to do next. I just had to stay alert and prepare myself.

I faced her and maintained eye contact with her so that she would get the impression that I was not afraid of whatever she was going to do.

Besides, she was alone. I would do justice to this. I trust myself.

“Stop It, Ethan. I am not in the mood for all of these. I had always known that you had been secretly seeing her. You should be ashamed for going back to your vomit,” she sneered at him but Ethan was not moved by her words.

It was written all over his face that he does not love her and he does not see any future with her. But, as always Raveena would keep forcing herself on him even if that was the

    REINA“Excuse me?”, I asked Ravenna, who was busy laughing from one end to another. “Are you surprised? Or, have I made you dead struck that you can't speak?” I shook my head continuously as she spoke to me. “Like, I said, Reina. I think the time has come for me to expose your wicked deeds and your lies. Not only to Ethan but to the world,” she revealed and she snapped her fingers.I didn't know how it happened. But, I began to hear heavy footsteps coming in our direction.Very soon people filled the room and they did not just come empty handed. They came with cameras and their phones were held up high as if they wanted to capture everything that was going on.“What is the meaning of this?” I yelled and Ethan on the no other hand who was long lost didn't like what he was seeing.But, Ravenna had her ways of calming him down.“Tell the whole world why you hide your son from your ex husband. The man who impregnated you and dumped you. Why do you parade yourself as someone without a c

    EthanThat I was thorn between two ends was an understatement. I hate the way my thoughts run through my mind like a whirlwind.I was not okay. Deep down, the whole Saga that was playing out was making me go crazy. If it was true that Reina had a child that she hid for me for years, then I may never forgive her. And if it was true that Ravenna was lying about this, I won't forgive her too.“I know what you are Reina. But, what you are doing won't work,” Ravenna stressed.“I wonder why you are still emphasizing on this. Haven't I informed you that you are going to hear from my lawyer?” Reina asked.She looked so confident as she spoke to Reina. Someone who was accused of having skeletons in her cupboard was not meant to act this way. If she was guilty, she would have been shaking by now. My head was banging. I was confused. I couldn't choose who to believe.“Please, let's leave here now. We still have an event. Or, do you want this devil to spoil our event?” Reina asked me.She stres

    REINAI was not wrong when I said that two people would trend that night. I did a good job in putting Ravenna in her place.Soon enough, the cops came to whisk her away before she could escape after the event.I watched as the cops handled her carefully. I wished that they didn't handle her that way. They would have handled her like the criminal that she was. That would have been better. She cried all through the time she was escorted out of the premises by the cops and I felt no pity for her.In fact, I felt so triumphant and I would celebrate my little win. It was funny how everything she planned against me backfired on her.My phone began to buzz as notifications came in from different blogs and social media handles. Everyone was talking about the launching of the Triple A and they didn't fail to mention the saga that happened earlier too.As I scrolled down, I saw a picture of Ravenna who was already disgraced by me and I smiled again.I knew that this would happen. Didn't I say

    ETHANI could count so many times my heart has been shattered by this young lady. Yes, I allowed her to meet the man who texted her. Out of curiosity, I hid behind a pillar and watched as they exchanged pleasantries.She was so joyful around him. The smile on her face was something that she had refused to stop showing me.Now, that project is over. Her stay here has expired and still I was not able to get her back to myself.“I'm a failure. I can't be told otherwise,” I said, biting my lips. Reina was nothing but a woman who thinks I’m here to hurt her. She loves being awfully mouthy to me and keeps on releasing the energy.I watched as he asked her out for dinner and could not stay any longer for my heart to be shattered beyond this.I knew she was going to agree to go with him. I had to leave and give her space. I will not give up on her and there will be signs that I love her and want her to myself.She will see those signs. Walking away from where I hid, I had decided that at

    ETHANThat was absurd.I could swear with my life that it was really absurd. “Excuse me?” I asked her. I was about to tell her to explain further what she meant by what she said.That statement made me so uncomfortable that my body began to inch me to get the truth out of her.“I knew it. You know nothing. That's why she is able to use you this way, making you forget that you have a fucking wife who needs your love,” she said.“Can you just go straight to the point?” I asked her.“Reina is hiding something from you. You have to trust every word that comes out of my mouth. I do not know why you find it hard to believe what I say but you will believe everything she says.”“That's not the truth. I try my best to see the truth in everything anyone says. You can't blame me that much, I am a human.”“You try? And everytime, I am the one telling lies? Is that what you are saying?” She asked.I didn't have the answer to her question. “I really want you to tell me everything you know. That'

    ETHANThe last thing I could remember was that I walked out of the station with so much anger.I still could not believe my ears that I had to fulfill what she told me to fulfill, before she could tell me what she knew.The anger in me kept eating me deep and I decided to pull over at the nearest bar to cool off.I collected the keys from my driver and sent him back home. This week is an alone time for me. A time when I wanted to be by myself alone.I was gripped with shock when I saw the two people at a table closely.Really? Did she really have to do this? This was a slap in my face. I knew that we were nothing but I felt I would have been respected better.I was hurt beyond anything and I could hardly control myself. My tongue began to taste bitter as I watched them laugh and drink.Out of anger, I charged towards them, with my fist tightened.“Reina?” I scoffed, turning around to face her whose shoulder was occupied by the man wearer beside her.He looked good here and even after

    REINA “You wish we didn't.” “I guess I am lost somewhere and somehow. Can someone help find me?” Bruce asked and I shut my eyes. My head kept pounding severely and I began to have a migraine as I stood right there. In between two men. One of the men was my supposed ex husband and another man who genuinely cared for me. “I'm sorry, Bruce. Can you leave us to settle this?” I asked him. That was too much for me to say but I knew that saying that will allow peace to reign. I needed to talk to him personally so that I would know why he did such a thing. “Okay, fine. I will leave. I guess there is a misunderstanding somewhere. I hope you two fix whatever the problem is,” he said to me in the most soothing voice and my heart broke. He held me tight with his hand and I could feel his pulse. “I'm sorry. I muttered and he nodded before leaving. After Bruce left, I faced Ethan who had long sat down, serving himself some drinks. “Can you explain what you just did?” I aske

    REINA“I don't know what you mean by that, Ethan,” I said, moving further away from him.I didn't know if he was trying to crack a joke or not. But, I sincerely did not find it funny.All the moves he made towards me were one that always made me so uncomfortable.“That will be fun, Reina. You don't have to worry too much about it. I'm good in bed and you know that," he remarked dryly and I stepped out again out of the range where he was standing.This was already too much for me to take. “I don't care if you are good in bed or not, Ethan. I have a problem with you already. My problem is that you allowed the person I came here with to go. Leaving me with you,” I said outrightly.I'm pretty sure that everything I said was enough for him to understand where I am coming from.I was tired. I was fed up. He was trying to please me. Yet, I do not want him. Can't he just back off?How was that such a difficult thing to do?“Are you trying to say that I am no fun? My effort to see you today w

    Ethan Reina looked up at me, her eyes filled with both hope and fear. “We are going to get through this, right?” I nodded, though my throat felt tight. “Of course, yes. We are together. Don't forget. ” And in that moment, I knew we had no choice but to keep fighting for Andrew, for each other, for our family. Finally, we were both with him after waiting for hours. Waiting. That was all we could do before being let in. Wait and hope. The clock on the wall seemed to move slower than usual, its ticking loud and relentless, as if mocking us.

    Ethan “Mr. and Mrs. Ethan,” the doctor said as he approached us in the waiting room. His voice was calm, but the tightness in his expression betrayed the gravity of the situation. “We have done everything we can to stabilize Andrew, but his condition has deteriorated. He needs surgery immediately.” The words hit me like a truck. My knees almost buckled, but I gripped the edge of the chair to prevent myself from falling. “Surgery immediately?” Reina’s voice cracked as she stood up beside me. “What kind of surgery?” “We need to address the complications caused by the infection. If we don’t operate now…” The doctor hesitated, and his eyes moved between us. “Just say it,” I barked in a sharp voice. I sounded so desperate of course, I just wanted my child to get out of this damn hospital. “If we don’t, his chances of survival are very slim.” The room spun, and for a moment, I couldn’t breathe. Reina let out a soft, choked sob and covered her mouth with her hands. “How soon?” I fo

    Reina“Why isn’t he waking up, Ethan?” I whispered, clutching the edge of the hospital bed.My voice trembled as I stared at Andrew’s pale face, his tiny body was almost swallowed by the sheets. The steady beeping of the heart monitor was the only sound in the room.I was going crazy. My only child was in a critical condition. “Reina, calm down,” Ethan said softly, though from his voice , I knew he was also scared. He was standing by the window, his hand pressed against the glass. “The doctors said they are running more tests.”I snapped my head towards him. “Tests? Ethan, he has not opened his eyes in hours! This is more than a fever. I know it!”Ethan turned to me and his face tightened. “Do you think I’m not worried? I’m losing my mind here, Reina! But panicking won’t help him.”The tears I had been holding back spilled over as I buried my face in my hands. “He’s just a child. Our child. He doesn’t deserve this.”The night before, Andrew was not sick. He just suddenly became

    Reina The email came at 7:45 a.m. sharp. It was as if the person who sent this mail did it deliberately to give me chills. I was sitting at the kitchen table, still in my oversized sweatshirt and sipping my first coffee of the day when I saw the subject line. “Congratulations on Your Appointment". My hand shook as I clicked the email, my heart pounding. And then I saw it: the confirmation that I had landed the job I had been dreaming about for years. It was the job of a Creative Director at one of the most prestigious firms in the city. I let out a gasp so loud that Ethan came running into the kitchen. “What’s wrong? Are you okay? Are you fine?” he asked, his face filled with concern. “Nothing’s wrong!” I said, laughing through my tears. “I got it, Ethan! I got the job!” His eyes widened in disbelief, and then, like a switch, his face softened into a smile. “Are you serious? Are you serious right now, sweetheart?” he asked, stepping closer. I nodded, holding up my phone

    Reina The following morning, the house felt colder than ever. It was not the weather or the light drizzle outside my house, it was the emptiness Ethan left behind. After our little argument last night. Ethan left the house and refused to answer my calls. I was going crazy because of a husband I had married and now, he had refused to come back. My heart became so heavy as I began to think about the implications of our argument. Had I pushed him too far this time? Was this all my fault? I would have shut the fuck up and not talk much to him about anything. It would have saved us a lot of stress. I stared at the clock, my coffee untouched on the table. Every second that passed without a word from him felt like a ticking bomb. My pride told me to wait, to let him be the one to come back and apologize, but my heart was screaming at me to call him, to beg him to come home. I needed him home. I needed to see him even if we were quarreling. I picked up my phone, my fingers hov

    Reina “Damn it!” I almost yelled at the blank wall b The sound of the rain splattering against the window just reminded me of how my mind was. The atmosphere in the house had changed since the accident. I was getting better of course, I knew I was. I was taking my drugs and going for my frequent checkups to make sure I was fine. I was doing all I wanted to do to stay alive. Because, Damn. I still had a little boy that I needed to take care of. Ethan was trying his best to be present, trying to make things better between the both of us and I always appreciated his efforts but something still felt fractured. No matter how hard we tried, the pieces of our relationship didn’t fit the way they used to. That was just the plain truth. I could not continue lying to myself. I loved him, yes. But we were not as we used to be. Tonight, the tension felt unbearable. I sat at the dining table, staring blankly at the steaming cup of tea in front of me. Andrew was already in bed, and t

    Reina Everyday in the hospital was filled with so much pain and all I could see were patients who were attended to and nurses who were filled with so much concern. Ethan never left me for a second. He was there every morning when I woke up and every night when I drifted into restless sleep. But the accident had changed something. It was not just in my body, but in the air that surrounded us. I could feel it in the way he hovered over me, his hand brushing mine as if afraid I might shatter. I could see it in the way he looked at me. It was not just love; it was fear. And I hated it. “You are not eating enough,” Ethan said one afternoon. I pushed the food tray away, the smell of the hospital’s chicken broth making my stomach rumble. I hated the sight of food. I didn’t want to eat anything. “I’m fine.” “You are not fine, Reina,” he said, his tone hardening. He sat down beside me, his knee brushing against the edge of the bed. “You almost died.” I flinched at the word. “You
