Twenty eight: Seriously?
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I widened my eyes, tense as well. "How did it happen?" I finally spoke, after a while of being silent.
She kept weeping hard. "I don't even know. Her boss, and the police just arrived at my place. Can you please come over?"
"Sure, sure," I replied to her.
"I'm so worried," she added.
I hung up the call, turned to Kath. "Kath, I've got to leave. Tell your dad something came up."
"Is there a problem?" She asked.
I nodded. "Yes, Renee's gone missing."
"Oh, really?" I could tell she was faking some concern. Renee was the last person Kath would be worried about, so there was no doubt Kath didn't care so much about Renee being missing.
"I'll leave now. Tell your dad I wish him a happy birthday," I added before turning around to take my leave. Kath had attempted to speak further, but of co

He took a step close, turned around to shut the door behind him. He didn't just shut it, he locked it. Ensuring it was completely locked, he focused back on me.I gulped. "Tyler? Y-You have…"I couldn't speak properly. It felt like a nightmare. He had said he liked me, but not for once had I thought he would go as far as kidnapping me. The night he had kissed me, I had seen desire running in his eyes, but I hadn't sensed an obsession.He put his hands into the pocket of his sweatpants, smirked even harder. "See, when I want something, I don't like being played around with.""You're insane?" I narrowed my eyes at him, overly shocked.He shrugged. "Let's not call it “insane”. I'll say I'm drunk with love. Love for you.""Hey!" I threw my hands up. Why did I have a feeling he was playing a prank on me? "Dude, are you nuts? Lo
Chasing Her Thirty: Apology
My head hurt a lot. It seemed as if there was a rock on it. Heavy rock. Slowly, I raised my hand to hold the pain on my head. I was tired and weak. What was going on?Opening my eyes, the ray of light that passed through the window made me squint. Moving my gaze to my body, I noticed a blanket was around me. And, woah, what?! I was in a sleep shirt. A different cloth. Who could have possibly changed my clothes?"What exactly is wrong with them?" Hearing that voice, I flinched, and sat up straight. Oh, shit, it was Roy. He was walking into the room with a doctor.Doctor? Why a doctor? I didn't need a doctor!Soon, they reached me. Roy was intense in speaking with the old man. He didn't even glimpse at me. Could he be angry because he had seen me with Tyler last night? Silly. How could he be angry because of that? And wait, why did I even care about him being angry? I was the one who
Chasing Her Thirty one: Doomed?
ScottThe document in front of me was as stupid as frustrating. All its content seemed like a framed work. Who in the world could have typed something this gibberish?"Gregory!" I barked. Throwing my head back, tapping my feet against the hard marble floor, drumming my fingers against the glass table in front of me, I glared, impatiently waiting for the idiot to come into my study room."Sir." One of my guys, Gary, hurried in, bowed his head. "Gregory isn't around. He said he had to go on an errand you had sent him to do."I twitched one of my eyebrows, being furious. "Errand? Which errand are you speaking of?"I don't know about that, sir. That's what he told me before he left," he replied."You all are irresponsible!" I yelled, and slapped my palm against the table. "Just leave here, moron. You work for me, but you don't e
Chasing Her Thirty Two: Crazy Oldie
I was furious. Of all the things I hated, betrayal was what I hated most. Yes, I had betrayed some people in the past, but that was only for a game. Whoever I had betrayed in the past, wasn't so relevant in my life. But that wasn't the same case here.I had been taking care of Greg since he was eighteen. Since the last twelve years, he had been with me. I ensured he studied at a good university, I employed him at my office, he was my highest paid worker. So what in the world could have made him do this?"You idiot!" I hurried to him. Overwhelmed with anger, I grabbed the collar of his shirt, hit him hard across the face. "You wanna get me doomed? After all I've done for you?"Non-stop, I keep hitting him. He deserved to be dealt with. I didn't care to know who he had been talking with on the phone, or the reason he was doing this. All I just wanted to do was to hit him to death. He was the last person I expected to
Chasing Her Thirty three: Truth
This place was as silent as a graveyard. The only things that could be heard were the sound of crickets, owls and bats. The air was a mixture of oxygen, the stench of cigarettes and alcohol. Coming to a place like this was very, very risky. But, I was pretty sure if I hadn't come here, dad would kill Gregory.I parked my car in front of one of the old houses, hopped out. A bit fearful, I headed to my destination. I knew this was the only place dad would send his men to beat up anyone, so that was the reason I had decided to come here.The alcohol content in the air seemed to be surpassing the oxygen. My lungs felt choked, begging me to leave here as soon as possible. Sometimes, I would wonder why the government didn't restrict people from coming here. Anyone could easily get murdered in such a place.I ignored the offensive odour. Reaching the house I was heading to, just a few feets away, I heard groan
Chasing Her Thirty four: Perfect
Renee______In thirty minutes, Roy would come here to pick me up. And like damn, I couldn't wait for him to get here. Every woman in love would understand what it meant to always want to have their man beside them. It was like taking a tour in the clouds.I kept my jaw in my palm as I propped my elbow on the counter. A small, warm smile crawled to my lips, and I shut my eyes, inhaled hard, enjoying the serenity around me.Yes, I was exhausted, but I didn't want it to be obvious. Roy had said I shouldn't work any longer, but of course, that wasn't going to be possible. Well, I kind of moved into his house. He had said I didn't have to worry about feeding or any other costs, but as a stubborn person I was, I wasn't willing to listen to him yet.For some reason, mom wasn't so comfortable with me having to stay at his place. I didn't know why, b
Chasing Her Thirty five: Deal
Renee______I squeezed my face, so confused. Roy was kind of crazy sometimes. How could he have ordered this much food? Just because I was pregnant, didn't mean I was now some kind of foodie. I was definitely still going to eat the same way I always ate.I scratched my head like I was confused. Oh, yeah, I was confused. Could he have ordered this for a guest? Was he expecting someone? And where the heck was he?I yawned. Last night, for some reason, I was unable to have enough sleep. As far as I knew, pregnant women always slept a lot, but that was completely different for me. I hardly slept very well. I guessed it was because I was kind of used to staying up late at night"Hey, princess?" I yelped when I heard his voice.With a little frown, I snapped my neck around. "Come on. You don't want me to have a heart att
Chasing Her Thirty six: How much more?
Renee______I scrunched my nose, choking on my own fart. I heard Roy mumble from behind me, but I ignored him. It wasn't my fault. My tummy kind of hurt, so this fart was because of his child. Could he blame me?"Renee," he bed-muffled. "Come on. You could have excused yourself."I bit my lower lip, my eyes jerking open. Shit, this was so embarrassing. Farting in front of him? The crumpling sound behind me denoted he was crawling towards me. Embarrassed, I shut my eyes back. At least, he would think I farted from my sleep."Come here, you naughty thing." He pulled me from behind, dug his lips into the skin of my neck.I remained silent, still pretending to be asleep. But, when he locked the inch between us, I yelped."Go away." I attempted to push him off me, but that didn't work. He only pulle

Chasing Her Epilogue
Renee______My hands tugged against the guardrails of the bed I was laid on. This pain? I hadn't ever experienced such physical pain in my entire life. At this moment, I appreciated my mom more than ever before."Ah!" My voice didn't come from my vocal cord, it came all the way from my abdomen, went through my lungs, then escaped via my lips. This pain felt like death."It'll be fine." Roy caressed my hair, seeming so worried."Push!" The nurse cried."Lord, help me!" I screamed further, trying to catch my breath, weeping so hard. A loud high-pitched sound banged in my ears, my head felt heavy, my body was full of discomfort.He pecked my forehead. "A little more effort, okay? Just a few more pushes.""A little more force needed," the nurse announced.&nb
Chasing Her Fifty one: Fate
I held mom's hand tight, so worried. It had been up to an hour since she woke up, yet she wasn't saying anything to me. She only continued to weep hard, harder than I had ever seen. I had asked her a couple of questions, but got no reply."I can't believe this," she finally spoke.I shifted closer to her, cupped her hand tighter. "I don't get what's going on. Please, say something to me."She finally looked at me. "That's John. That's… your father."I gave her a neutral expression, not knowing what to say or do. My father? The man who had died since I was a baby? Wait, what? Was this a world of fantasy? How in the world did he wake up from the dead?"Mom, that's Pablo. Are you sure you aren't seeing things?" I bit my lower lip when I said that.She sighed. "I don't even know how to react to this. It feels so… unreal. I'm sure S
Chasing Her Fifty: What?!
"Roy, come downstairs!" I cried, grumbling and frowning at myself. Goodness knew what he was doing up there. "Do you want your food to get cold? Don't make me come there and break your bones!""I'm coming, ma'am." He mumbled some things, as he walked down the stairs.Hot, he really was. He was in a sweatpant, a sweatshirt, and slippers. His hair was a bit wet and tousled, some of its strands slipping on his eyebrows. But, that didn't obstruct his beauty. As he took each step down, those arms moved back and forth as if he was bragging about his muscles.He squeezed his face a little, yawned in between. I could tell he still wanted to sleep, but couldn't do that because I had forced him to take a bath earlier than usual. Lazy dude. He didn't wanna go to work anymore."Gosh, why won't you let me sleep? What have I done to deserve this punishment?" He pecked my cheek from behind, and se
Chasing Her Forty nine: Agreed.
I turned back to Scott. His mouth and eyes were dropped. Mom's reply was what he wanted to hear, but that was probably not what he had expected her to say. She groaned from behind, which made me turn back to her. She was trying to get up. Yep, I ought to help her get up, but I was quite angry that she had agreed to give him the necklace."Mom?" I walked to her, and scoffed. "You wanna— what the heck?""Honey." She gasped for air, grumbling a bit as a result of how tired she seemed. "I can't risk your life. He's threatening us at gun point. We should just get rid of him for good. There's no need for you to worry, okay?""But, I can't…" I began to cry. I was so short of words. My mom would start a relationship with my boyfriend's dad? Absolutely ridiculous!"Honey, please—"Just when she was about to speak, the loud sound of… oh my goodness! Si
Chasing Her Forty eight: I'll do it
The thought that could poof into my head, was going on my knees and begging this irritating dude to spare us. Now, I understood why mom wanted us to leave the country as soon as possible. But, the irritating thing was, why the heck were we running away from a criminal? Criminals were the ones who ought to leave, not us!"Scott, at this point, you should know that this isn't possible. I've been guiding my late husband's possession since God-knows-when," Mom sputtered, glowering at him. "So, please, forget about the filthy necklace.""I. Won't." He spat out.She scorned at him. "Then let's see how you'll get it. In two hours, your twenty-five years bet will diminish. John will lose all the money to the betting company, while you'll get nothing!""I swear, I'll kill you." He moved close to her, jerked her jaw, pulled my darling mom up. I could kill him as well!"You won't dare
Chasing Her Forty Seven: Absolutely no one
Life was the same as boring. There was no Roy to stare at me whenever I woke up in the morning, there was no baby in my tummy to adore, there was no one to keep my company. Mom, who was the only available person around me, was facing a bit of depression.Ever since I had told her about how I had lost my pregnancy, she hadn't been doing fine at all. She had said she had already been knitting sweaters for her unborn grandchild, not knowing the innocent thing would be killed by some morons.Little by little, I was getting rid of the pain of losing the pregnancy, but not a bit had I gotten rid of my love for Roy. I guessed we had a really strong bond. To be frank, in the last one week, sometimes, I would think of speaking with him, but I didn't know how to. Probably, if he hadn't affirmed that this relationship was over, I could have tried to at least call or send a text to him. But, since he had said he didn't want it anymore, I gue
Chasing Her Forty six: Relationship Counsellor
Being shocked was an understatement. Not for once had I thought I would ever get to see her again. When she had first gone to the hospital, I used to visit her, and sometimes, had prepared her favorite dishes. But, when the doctor had told Bella and I that she had been close to death, we had decided to stop going to the hospital in order to prevent ourselves from being too hurt."Virg!" I jumped from my seat, threw my body against hers, cuddling her crazily.She giggled, hugging me tight as well. "Missed you so much, honey.""Oh my goodness." Pulling away, I pecked her on the cheek. "I can't believe you're… alive."She shrugged. "Me too. I can't believe I'm alive."I poked her arm. "Gosh, you've made me so glad tonight. Wanna go somewhere and talk?""Sure." She nodded."Kk." I took my purse from the table. T
Chasing Her Forty five: End
After a moment of being glued to my tracks, I managed to drop the bottle of water and glass, on the bed. Doing that, I traipsed to her, my legs feeling like it would break soon.Immediately I stood in front of her, she put her eyes down. "I'm sorry. I know this might hurt you. As well, I'm hurt. It took me a while to make this decision, but I've made up my mind. And I know it'll be good for us both.""Are you crazy?" I huffed. I hadn't even known when those words had spilled from my mouth. "You want to leave me? In this ruckus?"She raised her head to me, tears in her eyes. "Please, understand this. Breaking up is what we need at this point. Many people don't want us to be together.""But, that's—""We lost our child!" She roared. The seriousness in her tone intensified, tears already trickling down her cheek. "I've been kidnapped twice, I keep on being threatened, I
