SHADRACH’S POV…

Have you ever felt like you are at a stage in your life where you will do anything just to make someone happy? This stage is where you will want to offer your best just to earn their trust. Even though you know how that crashes you and how you hurt yourself. Even though they don’t accept you or look down on you. You just want to make them happy in your own way because you can’t resist them and you don’t even know why you are doing it.

I think I am in that stage already. I don’t know what has gotten into me lately. I don’t know why I am being this sensitive about Michael. I don’t even know when I graduated from hating him to wanting to see him. I always want to be around him. I always want to make delicious dishes for him. I always want to be punished by him even when it hurts, but I must confess I love every bit of that punishment.

I love the look on his face when he goes wild about me. I love the way he acts possessively toward me. I love the way he holds me tight an

    SHADRACH’S POV…I rushed and ran after Michael who walked straight to his apartment. I know he is probably mad because he saw me with his brother. I hold his hands immediately when I entered the house, he was so furious and looking grumpy. He was still breathing heavily as he stared at me without saying a word. I sighed deeply and hold his hands but he removed them forcefully. He looked really angry, he wanted to say something but his heart is still boiling up from jealousy so he couldn’t utter a word.I nodded my head and moved closer to him. “Come on Michael, you know I can’t possibly ignore Jerry or chase him away without any qualified reason. I have been friends with him since before we had a thing, so cutting him off right now will bring the lead to him suspecting us, and remember we are keeping this a secret for now.” I said looking at him.He giggled and stared at me for a while. “Jerry is my fucking brother Shad. How do you expect me to keep calm when he is getting much closer

    MICHAEL’S POV…Life could come up with an unexpected turn. Changes might occur to us at any time. Our long time plans can be disrupted by little things at any moment. These changes can be favorable or otherwise. The best solution is to accept and adapt to these changes. I have never thought that my plans to enjoy the moment with Shad will lead me to this situation. All I had in my mind was just to use him for the moment before I find myself a way out of this place and dump him.I never thought I would be trapped in Shadrach’s mind. My whole plans were disrupted as I have fallen totally for him. He has changed my mindset about this place. He made this mansion so comfortable for me. He made me understand the value of life and made me want to change for good. I currently want to be a better person so I can take care of Shadrach for life. I don’t think I can go a day without Shadrach in my life. I don’t even know how his love captured me suddenly, I am still battling with the fact that I

  • Fair Love and War    The big fuss

    I walked out, shedding hurtful tears on my face. I couldn’t believe this would happen to me. I couldn’t believe I would be back to this stage again. I couldn’t believe Michael would actually hate me this much, acting so cold as if nothing ever happened between us. He clearly forgets what we had, treating me like some trash again. I walked back to my apartment still crying. I think it’s already over for me. I am slowly dwelling in my grave. This whole mansion feels like hell to me. At this point, I hate life and love at this same time.The following morning, I woke up as early as possible and headed to Michael’s apartment. I was rushing to arrive there before he wakes up when I heard my name being called from afar. It is definitely Louis. He is the only one stalking me lately. I decided to wait and talk it out with him. I turned and faced him as he approached me. He was panting because he ran from a distance. I stared at him for a while waiting for him to talk, but I became impatient t

    MICHAEL’S POV…We all believe in love changing us into better people, we all believe love can make us do extraordinary things, and we all believe love can make us change our ways of living, but what we refused to see or believe is that broken love can make us more worse than we were before, it can make us change into more horrible beings that we were before.I have been living a bitter life since the day I saw Shadrach naked on someone’s bed, my life has been bitter since that day. I couldn’t believe he could do that to me, not after all that we shared, not after the assurance I gave him of myself, not after changing myself for good just to please him. That thing he did has currently destabilized my life, I have lost focus on myself and work also. It has been almost two weeks and I have been taking a break from work since then.I sat on the largest couch in my apartment on an early Friday morning holding a bottle of wine and a wrapped weed in my other hand. The whole room was filled w

    SHADRACH’S POV…I sluggishly walked back to the kitchen with tears rushing out of my eyes. I don’t know why I was crying, I am sure it wasn’t because of Dianne but because of how Michael disgraced me. That was when it dawned on me that I am only his maid and can’t be more than that. I know he has every right to address me as his house help, but does it has to be Dianne? She was his fucking ex and that was what annoyed me the most. I wiped off the tears on my face as I begin preparing lunch for them. It is high time I get myself together and move on from Michael. It is already obvious that he is done with me; I am of no use to him anymore. It is now left for me to move on with my life or get myself trapped in his love. I don’t think there is any need to continue holding on to him, he has already invited his ex to his place, he probably wants to make up with her and have a new life. I am just a tool to him by the way.I wasn’t concentrating while cooking because of their loud noise. Th

    SHADRACH’S POV…I sat dumb facing Louis as he stares closely at me. It rang like a bell in my head that he is suddenly asking me to live the mansion with him. I knew we have been talking about that but I never thought it will be this soon. I slowly adjusted myself as we were seated under the tree and faced him properly. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes for a while before I opened them.“Okay, Louis. I understand that you really care about me and always want the best for me, but I cannot leave this mansion. This place is my home and I don’t think I will ever appreciate staying in other places apart from this mansion.” I said looking at him. He sighed and holds my hands. “I know Shadrach. I am not asking you to leave totally with me. I just want you to take some sort of vacation and cool your brain for a while. A lot has been going on these days and I think you should rest a little.” He said looking at me.I was quiet for a while thinking about his proposal. Maybe he is actually

Without any regrets or second thoughts, people are betraying their trusted ones. Families are snitching on each other; friends are envying themselves, partners cheating on each other, and all sorts of mysterious behaviors that break relationships.I slowly opened my eyes that were soaked in tears as I stared slowly around the room. I must be currently in the main house. Tears are still rolling down my face as my father moved closer to me. “What has happened Michael? Why are you like this?” He asked staring at me. My mother was also worried as she stood from the seat she was sitting on and moved closer. She also asked the same question looking so disturbed. My lips are still gummed and I couldn’t utter a single word.I sniffled a bit and closed my eyes for a while. I still couldn’t believe that my most trusted brother

There is this feeling about Michael which I can’t run away from, I couldn’t move on from him no matter how hard I try. I always think about him whenever Louis is acting romantic.

Mrs. Sylvester walked slowly through the corridor leading to her son’s room as she carefully opened the door. He was still lying on the bed as she stood beside him and stared at him for a while.His black, shiny skin was glowing from the rays of sunlight piercing on him. Stephan is the real definition of an ebony handsome man. His face is perfectly curved with little beards surrounding it. His nose and lips align with each other, giving him more coolness. He is already looking matured at his young age.She slowly tapped his shoulder as he sluggishly opened his eyes. “Good morning mom.” He greeted, looking at her with a smile.

He was very happy and eager at the same time as he sat on one of the library seats waiting for his best friend.He suddenly has a changed of expression and became worried instantly. “What sort of gift would make Kabir choose such a quiet place?” He asked himself curiously. The library is very much dissertation, there were no students because it is the last day of school; everyone was done with their papers and are heading home already. He was still sitting on the seat thinking when he heard footsteps from behind him. He was about turning when the person grabbed him tightly from behind.“Don’t panic Omar.
