MAKAYLA“You look gorgeous tonight” I told Kendra as I curled her long hair and looked at her through the mirror, thinking tonight was the first time she was going out with Gabriel, and I couldn’t be more happy for her as she truly deserved it. Gabriel was a good guy and someone who I knew would treat her well.When Kendra first told me that she had agreed to give him a chance, I was a little sad but quickly got over it as if there was anyone who could take my brothers place then that was Gabriel as he had been there for her from the very beginning. “I think I should ring Gabriel and tell him I cant make it” Kendra said as she picked up her phone from the dressing table and quickly unlocked it. It wasn’t the first time she had said this, and I knew it was because she felt guilty, even though she didn’t say it out loud. “You can’t keep doing this Ken, go out and enjoy yourself” I said as I put the curling tong away and looked down at her, hoping she listened. “We can go another da
THREE YEARS LATERKENDRAThe last three years had passed by as a blur, and I honestly didn’t know how I was still alive and breathing without Elias by my side.Not a day passed when I didn’t remember him and his warm presence. Even the best detectives in the city hadn’t been able to find him, and with each day that passed I was slowly losing hope that I would ever see him again as he had been gone for far too long. The only thing that kept me going was our three beautiful children who reminded me everyday that a part of Elias would always belong with me no matter what happened. I had given birth to the most perfect little human beings, a little girl called Eliana and two identical twin boys who I named Konrad and Kaiden. They spent the first six weeks of their lives in hospital as they were all born before their estimated due date but since then they were all well and had grown nicely. I never thought it was possible for me to love them as much as I did but they were definitely th
KENDRAIt took me a moment to understand what the hell Mikel wanted from me as I opened the file and quickly read through it. “Sign it now” He muttered before he glanced at his watch.I closed the file and looked up at him angrily. “You will never be a part of my kids life, you’re an idiot if you thought I’d agree to this willingly” I said with a small frown, thinking how dare he ask to adopt one of my unborn babies. Mikel took a step towards me held the gun he was holding in his hand against the side of my head. “Then I guess I have no choice other than to kill you and take them myself” he said angrily, and it was in that moment I realised that I couldn’t put my life at risk or that of the triplets inside of me that were kicking more then usual. “Fine I’ll sign it” I said quickly as I just wanted him to back off and leave me alone. Mikel moved the gun from the side of my head and looked down at me angrily, like I was his worst enemy. “Make it quick” he said as he watched me cl
Six weeks had passed, and I still hadn’t accepted the painful truth that Elias was gone for good, even though all his family had said their last goodbyes and even held a small private funeral in his honour. I was the only one who didn’t bother attending it, as I refused to believe that the love of my life was gone forever. I buried myself deep into work, as that was the only thing that kept me sane and momentarily made me forget about the constant pain I felt deep inside my heart. Mikel and Tyrell had both tried contacting me a few times in the last few weeks, but I made sure neither one of them came close to me, as I didn’t trust them at all. It was the late in the evening and I was busy working on my laptop when Gabriel walked into my office and closed the door after himself. “You should really go home and rest, you know I’m more than capable of handling everything here” he said before he passed me a bag of food that he had picked up from one of the restaurants in the building.
KENDRAA week had passed, and I had finally accepted the painful truth that Elias was never going to return home or answer any of my calls. The plane he was travelling in had crashed near a small island just on the outskirts of Indonesia, and today was the day I was going to visit the crash site and relive my worst nightmare all over again. Makayla and Gabriel were both joining me on this heartbreaking trip, and I couldn’t say to either one of them as they had both been by side from the very first moment, I got the devastating news about Elias. In fact, it was Gabriel who found me unconscious on the floor of my office, after Mikel told me that he played a big part in getting rid of Elias from my life forever. “Hey, are you ok?” Makayla asked me quietly as the driver drove us all to the place where they had found some of Elias’s personal belongings, including his passport.“This is a lot harder then I thought it would be” I said as I leaned back against my seat and looked out of th
MAKAYLAI was doing some work on my laptop when the breaking news on the TV caught my attention and I quickly looked up as soon as I heard that there had been a plane crash. “We are sorry to bring this devastating news to you at this late hour, but we have just been informed that a small private jet that left British soil just a few hours ago has crashed whilst flying over the pacific ocean” a news reporter announced.It was what she said next that my heart drop and my eyes fill with tears. “Elias Richardson is said to be one of the five passengers on that plane, on his way to Sydney, Australia where he was set to perform tomorrow evening for the first time ever” the news reporter said and that was the last thing I heard before I jumped off the bed and quickly made my way to Elias and Kendra’s bedroom that was a short distance away. I knocked on the door but there was no reply. “Kendra are you awake?” I asked quietly, with tears rolling down both of my cheeks. I knocked once more
