A V E L I N A

It was 8pm, the kids were already in bed.

Carina had left and I was in the living room, trying to focus on the novel I was reading. But, I was failing.

My mind was elsewhere.

It was a while since I was left alone to my thoughts and it wasn't a good thing. I had too many thoughts running around my head.

I hated that he was back. I really did.

There was no way in hell that I was going to let him into my house.

He lost his rights the day he chose to believe the lies instead of trusting me.

If he hadn't chosen to listen to the lies and investigate the matter, he would've known that I hadn't cheated on him.

Five years.

He had five years to come back and fix the damage he did.

And now, he's back.

Asking for forgiveness.

I was so mad at him, it hurt.

I closed the book and rubbed my temple. This wasn't the right time to lose my mind. I couldn't afford to think about the past. I had the future of the twins to worry about. I couldn't afford to have him messing things up.

    A V E L I N AThe next morning, the twins were seated at the breakfast table, eating their pancakes.I had already finished mine, and was waiting for the kids.When the doorbell rang, I froze. Was it him? I got up from the chair, and walked towards the front door.I looked out the window and saw that it was a delivery guy. I opened the door, and signed the paper, thanking him.After shutting the door, I looked at the bouquet of flowers in my hand. They were beautiful.I read the card.'Your favorite flowers because of you, you're my favorite.- L.'I sighed, throwing the flowers into the trash bin."Who is it, mommy?" Autumn asked.I smiled, "No one, baby. Eat your food. Mommy has to run some errands."She nodded and went back to eating. I walked upstairs to my room and took a quick shower, before heading to the closet to pick an outfit.After getting dressed, I put on some makeup and fixed my hair. My phone dinged.Carina: Are you still mad at me?I sighed. I regretted the heated con

    A V E L I N AI spent the whole day at the office, and when it was time to pick the twins up, I quickly went to the day care center and signed them out.We got into the car and drove home. After pulling into the driveway, I shut the engine and stepped out. The kids and I walked into the house, and I led them to their room.They sat on the floor, while I unpacked their backpacks. "What did you do today?""We colored, played and took a nap.""That's good.""Can we have ice cream?" Autumn asked."I don't think so. It's not time for ice cream yet. Maybe later, okay?"She nodded. "Can we go play in the garden?""Of course. Go."They stood up and ran out of the room. I decided to use my little time to go take a shower and prepare dinner.I went to my room, and entered the bathroom. I stripped off my clothes and got into the tub. I relaxed, enjoying the hot water against my skin. It had been a long day and I couldn't wait to go to bed.After taking my time, I shut the water and stepped out.

    A V E L I N AI was seated in the dining room, watching Autumn and Lorenzo play outside. He'd been trying to make her laugh, and she was eating it up.She had so much love in her heart, and seeing her being affectionate towards him made me have a mixture of emotions. I was proud that she was a sweet and kind person. However, it broke my heart that she had a connection with the man who'd abandoned her.Lorenzo was sitting beside her, holding the ball as she tried to throw it into the basket. Zion was not too far away either, he was playing by himself in the sandbox. He had a toy truck in his hands and kept driving it through the sand.Lorenzo got up and took the basket, carrying it towards the garden. Autumn followed behind him and he began to teach her how to throw it in.The sight was bittersweet, and it reminded of the days when we used to be a happy family. Just us two. Before he ruined it all. I imagined him being there for the twins since birth, how perfectly the role of a fathe

    A V E L I N AI shook my head in disbelief. "You want to file for custody?" My ears were ringing, and everything was happening too fast."I don't want to, but if I have to, I will."I couldn't believe my ears. "So, this was your plan, right? Get close to the kids, and then threaten me that you would have the rights to them.""No, that's not–""It's exactly that. Don't try to deny it. I'm stupid for even considering trusting you." I scoffed, throwing the plate on the counter."I never planned any of this, Avelina. Why are you so difficult? The kids know nothing about our past, why are you hellbent on dragging them into it? They don't deserve this. You're only been selfish for bringing them into the mix."His words pierced through my chest, and I gasped. I didn't know what hurt me the most. The fact that he was threatening me, or the fact that he was right."What do you want me to do? Lie to them about you? Tell them that you didn't exist? What if they started asking about you, and I to

    A V E L I N AAt first, the day seemed so ordinary. Like every other day, we woke up, had breakfast, and the kids went to school. But, little did I know that a single encounter would change my life forever.I was walking down the street, minding my own business. Then, suddenly, a car stopped right in front of me, scaring the shit out of me."Oh my God, are you okay?!" The driver yelled.I was too stunned to speak."I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to scare you!" He said, clearly distraught.I finally found my voice and responded."It's alright, I'm okay," I reassured him."Are you sure?" He asked, concerned."Yes, I'm fine. Really," I said, calming down. He sighed in relief and then asked me if I needed a ride. I was going to refuse, but then I realized that I was a bit far from home."Um, actually, if you're heading downtown, I would really appreciate it," I replied."Sure, no problem," he smiled.He offered to drive me and we started chatting along the way.

"She's fucking mine.""Then, make her yours," he said simply, shrugging his shoulders.I ran my fingers through my hair, frustration and anger consuming me. "It's not that easy." I muttered."It's not rocket science, either.""Fuck, you're infuriating," I groaned, walking towards the window. It was almost six-thirty and I knew any moment from now she was going to come here to drop the kids."She's going on a date with another man. Is that how easy it is for her to move on?" I said, feeling agitated."You've fucked more girls unlike her in the past five years. You of all people shouldn't judge her for being in her SECOND relationship since you.

The first person my eyes met were Natalia's and she didn't look a tad bit remorseful.Her clothes were tattered and dirty and she looked thinner but held so much rage and enmity in her eyes. Seeing her rose lots of pent up anger in me."Order. Order. Will the jury please rise." The judge said and they all stood up."Today is the final court hearing. Has the jury come to a conclusion?""Yes, we have.""Read it out."The lady nodded her head and started to speak. "In the case of the people versus Natalia Serrano, we find her guilty. Evidences and footages have proven that she had conspired with a man to kill her boyfriend, and frame Lorenzo Salvatore for the crime."Natalia's face dropped, and the rage in her eyes burned harder than ever. The glare she gave me was something that could have killed me instantly if it had the ability."Is this true, Miss. Serrano?""No. They're lying. I didn't do anything.

He looked around the room and then his eyes met mine."Avelina, thank God you're awake." He said, rushing to my side and placing a kiss on my lips. "Oh my God, thank God. I thought I lost you, baby.

The evidence was too strong and the Mancini's were pushing it.It was finally the day of the trial, and I had been locked up for two days, and the worst thing was, I didn't get to hear from Avelina, I didn't know how she was doing.

My lawyer finally arrived and we were to go to the court, and that's where I would get a verdict.I looked at Dorian and he gave me a reassuring nod. I decided to trust him.

You have to let us do our jobs."My brain couldn't function at the moment, and I was feeling a bit lightheaded."What's going on?" I asked weakly, looking around the room as they took my daughter. My head was spinning and my eyes were heavy, but I wanted to see my baby."Mrs Salvatore, try your best to relax.""Valerie." I called her weakly, my vision blurry.
