CHAPTER SIXTY-EIGHT
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56It is disputed that Simon noticed that Emilia was approaching, otherwise he wouldn't have pursued his flirty behaviour knowing that it was guaranteed to upset her.
As always, she was well-groomed in a floaty white expensive dress. Her hair was bobbed on her neck. With an aura of a high-class lady and a loving mother, she made it towards her but Simon was too distracted to notice her promptly.
"Great job, my friend, great job!" He said dabbing his lovely instrument whose work seemed to have been effective.
"She is beautiful, isn't she? Just like a queen. And you, my dear, have linked her to my heart. Don't you think I lucked out by meeting her? You are amazing!" He kissed his guitar and lifted his glowing face to glimpse at Esther once more but she had disappeared in a flash after glimpsing at the tough l

It is late in the evening and Miguel is back from work. He enters the living room with a face daubed with weariness and appears dead-beat and extremely cut-up. His neck-tie loosely hung around his neck and his laptop bag clenched in his hands seemed to be weightier than it was."Sir, welcome, Sir, good evening…" The three maids who were around greeted him with a sense of absolute politeness.He responds with a nod and a dearth of his usual warm smile to their greetings as if he hadn't the least strength to talk and they looked at one another and then drew their astonished gazes at him in dead silence and shrugged and took to the kitchen.Miguel went straight to his room, but as he climbed the marble staircase, one couldn't fail to notice that he was struggling to get to the last step and halts briefly to catc

She notified Nisha promptly and in a flash the latter drops by in the mansion pacing in the direction of Simon's room. She's dressed casually in her body-hugging jeans and a cool top. Her usual smartness was her peculiarity. However, today, her hair rumpled which seemed odd. Was it her intention? Perhaps yes. It might be part of her craftiness.,As soon as she sighted Emilia, her heart palpitated and her mind was filled with formless thoughts."This Emilia is a troublesome character to reckon with, but she can't outwit me. Simon, I hope you read my message or else this whole plan will drain down the pan." She was pensive and seeing that Emilia was already at the door yet the distance between them was quite long, she screamed ecstatic,"Ma'am Emilia!"The latter withdrew
FOREVER MINE CHAPTER SEVENTY-ONE
In such inestimable moment of pleasure where every emotion and feeling seemed infallible and where every nourishment of their hearts seemed inextricably linked to each other's, Esther lay inertly in his arms caught between serving his truthfulness with inequity by giving him a negative answer thereby breaking her heart because she loved him so or as simply stated-Simon never inveigled himself into her admiration and revere but she purely loved him, or affirm to his question and bear the unseen consequences in the underlying future. "I love you." He has said these same words countless times as if he were a fool. Well, he is; a fool in love! So overwhelming a moment it is for him that he cannot substitute these three invaluable words to plainly define his feelings because in them his heart has sunken deeper into her and hackneyed it might appear in writing, Esther never got bored of listening to it.

"Honey, the necktie!"Miguel yelled impatiently as he fidgeted with the blue tie in his hands which he'd failed to fix.Emilia came in dashing in a long purple glittering dress, her silky hair cascaded behind her neck. Her thin round lips were painted with a shiny lip gloss. She was dripping with beauty! He turned and saw her, his eyes brightened."You've killed it, darling, you look eminently stunning!" Emilia glowed. She still looked gorgeous despite her age. With her flawless velvety skin, one might think she's still in her thirties. She has lived a Barney life for all her years and knew how well to take care of herself. Miguel drifted towards her and kissed her."Thanks, dear. You still don't know how to get this done?"

"I could never have imagined that Simon would stoop to that!" Said Slyvia in murmurs with a whiff of envy stinking inside her. Maurice, ever plain and honest, couldn't hold her thoughts back."Why? You can't deny the fact that she's beautiful and modest. It is hard for any sensible man not to fall for her.""Beautiful!" Sylvia was deadpan."Yes, even the blind can detect that, or would you rather he'd chosen you?.. She said, reading her strappy figure in mockery and grinned."Mind your tongue, Maurice!" She said sternly."I am sure she's just a stop-gap. Simon can't leave Nisha for her."Someone turned on the knob and they all sprang to the corner. Who could say
FOREVER MINE CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOUR
Mrs Wabua's heart was leaden with sorrow. After Esther's disappearance, her only son, Amon, was put in jail because he was suspected of kidnap and murder. Richard, who'd raised Esther as his daughter, had learnt that he had an interest in marrying Esther but the latter loved him like a brother. In trying to seek Justice, Richard sent an innocent man to jail. In two days, he would be sentenced to death by hanging because he had no witness and all the evidence pointed to him.She was convinced that Queen was a different person because she spoke fluent English and seemed very polished. Why wouldn't she? All this time, Simon had been tutoring her. She has radically changed and transformed into a 'queen' and the name suits her absolutely."Ma'am come and sit." Esther encouraged her and she sat along with them but a feeling of mortification mounted up in her.

She woke up with a strange feeling. Every part of her body was numb, her legs spread astride as if she had been racing in a horrible nightmare. Pulling them together, she felt a pang of pain in her loin and her lower parts. It was strange! She stretched her hand groping for the bed switch thinking it was still at night because she was still weighed by sleep and felt a numbing weakness as if she had been battered. How odd! The switch wasn't there and neither was the bed. It was dark inside although there was a shaft of light that stole through the small window. Then she opened her half- blurred eyes and wandered them around; she was no longer in the luxurious room lit by four lamps, a double bed with a comfortable mattress and nice bed sheets but lay on a

Emilia wiggled off with incoherence and strutted towards the grubby room which was an old cellar. Here, in an unconducive environment, is where she had ordered Jimmy to confine Esther after raping her."This isn't over yet, I will find a way to destroy you completely- soon, you moron!" She snarled, opening the door."Come out! I hope you've learnt your lesson. This is just a mere demonstration of what will happen to you if you don't distance yourself from my son." She said and waited at the door but there was no sign of life inside. "Ah, has she escaped- or someone helped her to? Damn it! Queen! Err-are… you there?" She sputtered, scared- very scared. If anything were to happen to Esther, Miguel's family would be dragged along; the maids, the guards, the mayor and his wife- everyone! This would mean that the reputation Miguel had toiled to build fo

Their flight was at noon. Esther's crew sat charting in the departure lounge as they waited. Five minutes towards the flight, they had an alert. They had to leave the terminal. It was time to bid goodbyes, which is never an easy thing to do. Simon and Esther broke off and headed on to board the plane. Suddenly a middle-aged lady came running after them shouting and flagging down Esther, "Hey, Esther, wait! I have something important to tell you." She was looking desperate and weak with sunken eyes and a thin body, her hair rumpled. Esther looked behind and saw her and stopped, poking at Simon, " That lady…" "Love, do you recognise her?" Simon asked. Anyone would have thought she was mad gauging her appearance, but Esther decided to talk to her because, how did she get to know her name? There must be some co

Simon was now a desperate man. His luck presided in the hands of destiny. He was glad that at last Queen had regained her memory but on his part, it could have a negative impact, that is; if Queen failed to recollect ever having been part of his life. Richard would certainly accuse him and the mayor's family of keeping her away from her family. Do you know what would happen? He wouldn't spare them but send them to jail and they would rot there. So much the worse is that Simon ought to die of desperation for we all are acutely aware of his terrific love for Esther. He leaned against the wall and observed her sweet tender face incapable of accepting her rejection.Dr Ben stared at his desolate face and was touched. On mature consideration, he walks to him and tries to console him,"Take heart, Simon. Who knows, maybe when she wakes up agai

"Reverand, I need your help…" Simon spoke on the phone for quite a long time and in forty minutes, a light-skinned man dressed in a long white cassock came in and found him alone sitting on the chair conversing with Queen as if he was crazy. He didn't see him come in. The reverend stood behind him and listened to his monologue and was baffled, "What kind of faith is his! Surely the good Lord will not abandon him!" He meditated and tapped on him, "Son!" Simon jolted,"Eh, Reverand Antonio, welcome. Are you ready?" His face frowned."Son, are you sure that you want to do this?""Yes, Queen will love this. She was so happy before her wedding day. I am sure she will be much happier if she wakes up and finds out that she's already married to me. Nothing will ever separate us then."

Marriage eve "Simon!!" The noise was too loud to awaken a lying ghost. He had almost pushed it through his flesh until he saw her desperate face. "Kill me instead." She said coming closer. His hands shook with the knife. "Don't come close, Queen. I don't want to see your tears anymore. At Least save them for the future. Promise you will not lay a wreath on my tomb." Tears spilt down his face like rain. Miguel's legs were numb and he knelt on the floor begging for forgiveness. Emilia followed suit but their pleading voices were like thorns pricking deep in his heart. "Love, give me that!" Esther beseeched and he became weaker and weaker as if her timid voice was controlling him. To Emilia, this was a sign of what his son's life would be like if they got married; a putty in her

Simon sped off jauntily, jingling the car keys in his hands and came to the living room, his eyes scouring for his love. Esther sat sulking on the chair in the corner, her mind immersed in deep thought and her heart intense in sadness. Simon spotted her and shouted with verve, "Love!" Her head jerked up and she noticed that his face was swathed in a smile. It was symbolic of some good news but she seemed disinterested and merely returned a phoney smile. He moved nimbly towards her and enfolded her in his arms with vitality, "Love, finally mom and dad have accepted our relationship! We are getting married in two weeks!" He was extremely ecstatic."Really?""Yes, love! Very soon you'll be my legal wife- my better half!" He gave hearty laughter, kissed her and swung her around with a feeling of triumph.She had mixed f

There was a mien of fear in Maxwell's eyes because Sylvia dawdled to decide. "Three failed marriages!" She contemplated this and had niggling doubts about this sudden relationship; It was best to nip it in the bud before a heartbreak."Won't you mend my broken heart?" He asked in a shaky voice. Her silence seemed to deplete all his boldness and he was nervous."What a joker!" Emilia said and gave a mocking smile. She was having fun just like Miguel who was killing himself laughing.Suddenly, Simon, Nisha and Nathan started cheering, encouraging and coaxing Sylvia, "Say yes, say yes…" And the applause went on and on. She hoisted her face and gazed at them. They were happy for her, so why wouldn't she be happy for herself? Then she shifted her gaze to the man trembling in front of her and saw the tr

Esther saw Emilia first and quaked with fear trying to recoil from Simon's embrace and muttered,"Love, stop- it's your mother!"He twisted his neck and looked at Emilia and then ravished Esther with a kiss."It's high time she got used to this, love. I don't see any reason why I should feel guilty to show affection to the woman I love, otherwise, she might mistake me for a loveless man. Have you heard about this? He chuckled heartily and was ludic for a moment which made Emilia almost choke with a lump in her throat. Her lips quivered and she was speechless with rage. However, they knew that her silence was just a lull. She flew downstairs and went to look for Sylvia in her room because she had a lot to answer."How could she let this happen?. She will not l

WARNING!!!Contains explicit scenes. Read at your peril.Esther didn't have any idea what to do or how to start, but when she saw the docility of Simon lying stiff on the bed near the oxygen machine, she flurried and run to him,"Simon, please don't leave." She lamented, her voice trembling with anxiety. She gave him a firm grip on his hand and fiddled his cold face. "It's me, love, wake up, don't do this to me... Okay, I accept I fouled up, but...I don't know how or when it happened. Maybe it was my frailty- the frailty of human nature. You hate me, don't you? I promise I will go far away from you, but you must wake up."Her eyes fraught with tears and she drew much closer and with fervour, she kissed him. Suddenly, his chest heaved and she stopped conscious of what she might have perceived as friv

Simon's health degenerated day by day which dealt a blow in Esther's heart and compelled her to contrive to stay around for the time being until the conundrum had been solved. Then one night- one cold night, he broke into continuous hiccups and had complications with breathing. Dr Maxwell came out of the room vexed and spoke to Miguel, "This is fatal!" Said Dr Maxwell. He was one of the most reputable doctors in the city. He too was frightened. Miguel jerked, debilitated by the doctor's statement. "What are you implying?" " He's not doing well, not at all!" How could he tell him bluntly that his son was on death's door? "I'll put him on the life-giving machine immediately. May God have mercy!" He turned to go, and
