Up till now, Sophia still believed she was carrying Matthew’s child in her womb.

While she sat in the hospital with Matthew’s toothbrush in her hand, a tear dropped from her eyes.

Three months ago after Shawn and Joana wedded, they had not visited for once.

Sophia didn't believe Shawn would buy her father such an elegant mansion in Cabbagetown. At least, she was grateful they didn't return to the slum.

These days, Sophia could see the disappointment in her father's eyes each time she looked at him.

    It was late that day and neither Shawn nor Sophia knew the dangers that awaited them in the dark. They staggered and walked out of the beach looking all drunk and gullible for harm. While they strode in the dark, to the road, locked in each other's arms, a fine scent of danger swirled the air but Shawn and Sophia were all drunk and laughed it away. Soon, they heard gunshots. Joana, who had been following the drunk couples, halted to the red flag and bad signal. Derrick and his men were out for war and it almost seemed like a World War. Joana gazed at her cousin, Sophia, and a pang of terror overshadowed her. "We had fun at the party today. Damn! I wish the party never got to end.,” Planting a peck on Shawn's soft chin, Sophia recounted the fun she had at her birthday party hosted by her boyfriend, Shawn to celebrate their 4th relationship anniversary...

    You haven't told us why you got dismissed from the office.” Sophia fumed at Shawn, who was seated on the couch, placing both hands on the head."I had an outburst with a colleague at work this morning and we both got dismissed.

    "Hey Hun. Guess what just happened right now? I just got a job as an office assistant to a CEO.” Sophia rushed home immediately and disclosed the news to Shawn. "You didn't tell me you were going shopping. What's with the groceries you are holding?” he wasn't fascinated a bit by her new job. He shunned and focused all attention on the groceries packs in her possession. "I just told you I secured a job, and you're not even bothered. I expected more,” she reminded him, dropping the packs on the couch. "A while ago, you stepped out to cool off, and now you're here with packs of groceries? Come on, it's not adding up. What's this job all about and who connected you?” "So, there's this old friend of mine I met at the lounge. Remember I said I was going to cool off, right? I told her everything that's been happening lately, and she offered to help. Right in my presence, she called her Dad and told him everything.

    Another day had dawned. The rays of early sunlight lit up the streets and brought a pearly glow into the sky as the chorus of melodic birdsong drifted in. It's the most important day of Sophia's life. She wasn't a coffee drinker, but she lost sleep last night thinking about her new job and the opportunities that awaited her. Even though her boyfriend wasn't still in full support, Sophia was still determined and focused. It was just 6:30 am and Sophia was already up, and anticipating her new job. She can't wait to meet new people and make friends, too. She opened her wardrobe to select the best dress to complement her position as an office assistant but was lost and developed a headache. She found none of the outfits worthy enough. Finally, she caught a glimpse of one, a beautiful red gown. “This fits perfectly,” She smiled in excrement and stood in front of the mirror to admire her beauty. After applying a slight make-up, Sophia dashed to the living in her high heels. She was comp

Can't you see it's late?" Shawn glanced through the window and called Sophia repeatedly, trying to make her return but she ignored him and kept walking faster as though Shawn never existed."Did you see what your cousin did? Sophia just walked out on me. She's not even responding to me. When did all of this start? She wasn't like this before.Did you two plan this? If I find out about your involvement in this, I'll forever be angry at you. You should be a mediator and not a destroyer.``He turned to Joanna to vent his frustration. He has every reason to believe that Joanna might have been involved in this. Perhaps, Joana herself orchestrated it all."Shawn? Please stop this madness. It's making me so uncomfortable.
