"Come here." Roxy opens her arms wide and welcomes her brother with a warm embrace, kisses his forehead and continues, "You don't have to get me anything, having you as a brother is a huge gift God granted me and having you around is more than enough. Don't feel guilty, it's just a day like the rest, whether I have gifts or not, all I'm grateful for is you and everyone else who is supporting us through these tough times. Like Kyrah and her family... And Scott too. So lighten up, don't be too hard on yourself," she says and he gives her a smile in return. She then pulls me to join them and we hug and chuckle at the same time.

"Now, time is running out, we have to get going," Roxy informs me as we let go of each other.

We then go outside and wait for an uber Roxy had called and once they're in, I wave goodbye and they do the same.

I just hope everything goes well for them.

I walk back inside the house.

    Roxy's POVI am biting my lower lip pretty hard, tapping the seat in a quick rhythm, chest pounding so hard, I swear the driver can hear it. The situation we're in right now, has me feeling like I'm shitting bricks. No kidding. My stomach feels like my intestines have been tied into knots. When I turn to look at Vic, he seems uneasy. He's staring out the window and biting his fingernails. One thing that is common amongst us is that we don't know how to hide our nervousness. I'm no longer scared, but I'm dying to know where we're going. I'm tempted to ask the driver but since he has instructions, I am sure he won't say a word. It gets darker by the minute and as I check the time, I notice that we've been on the road for about forty minutes. Moments later, the driver leaves the highway and takes a left turn into a dusty road. "Are you sure you know where you're taking us?" I question. "Yes ma'am," he says while nodding once. Huh? Did he just refer to me as "ma'am"? No one's ever don

    "Let me make things clear for you. Remember when we were kids and I told you I'd got lost in alley? Bobby found me and brought me here. Also that time after... Mom died, I came here. There's also so many other times that I've been here, just to clear my head. Bobby watches over me. He knows you but you don't him. I don't know how but... they're all good people, trust me. You can calm down now. We're safe. The problem is, why are we here? Meaning... our mom knew this place." I turn to face Bobby and squint my eyes. "Is there something you should tell me?" my smile fades and I cross my arms in front of my chest and cock my head to the side. He clears his throat and rubs his overgrown stubble, then he sighs. "Follow me inside. The night is still young and you have lots of stuff to know," he says and goes back through the gate and we follow suit. Boogie and the rest remain behind to guard and as we walk beside Bobby, I can see the familiar trailers, well arranged. There are a few people

    "Dad! Is it really you?" I choke as tears are welling up in my eyes. My heart is racing faster than lightning. My palms are sweaty, I feel like the world is spinning or something. Am I dreaming? "Yes, it's me sweetheart," he responds. My heart sinks when he refers to me as sweetheart. I want to run into his arms but it seems like I can't even move, it's like something is holding me back. "But how? We saw mom shoot you and you were lying on the floor and... How is this even possible?" Vic rakes his fingers through his hair as he breathes heavily. "Son, when your mother shot me, I became unconscious and since the three of you left without knowing my condition, you couldn't have known if I was dead or alive," dad says and I swallow hard. "I don't understand." I cringe at the memory. "Well then why didn't you reveal yourself to me? I've been coming here for all these years but I had no idea you were so close to me. Why? Why did you hide?" A tear drops and a sob escapes from my mouth.

    Olivia purses her lips before talking. I can feel the temperature rising now and from the look on my father's eyes, he knows nothing about what Vic and I said, well except for the fact that he slept with her. The thought of it makes me want to gag. Ew! Dad moves closer to Olivia and his tall figure makes Olivia seem smaller than usual. She looks scared. Oh, she better be! Because all I know is that the Trents are the wrong breed to cross. Vic and I once got into a fight with other kids at the foster home and whatever happened that day, made the kids over there respect us. 'Never mess with the Trents' was what they said. Olivia and our mom are the Sanders, but when our mom got married to dad, Daniel Trent, she became a very different person. A Trent. No wonder she shot my dad that day. "We're waiting for your response, Olivia Sanders," I say. "I... I didn't–" "Please! We all know what you did because you did it to us," I say. "Even though daddy was alive I know him too well, he wou

    Olivia is staring at me, tears are trickling down her face and that's when I realize that my tears have been falling all along but I was too livid to notice. I was busy arguing. "Get out, Olivia!" I shout. Her name tastes so bad on my tongue. Immediately she turns on her heel and leaves, Bobby escorts her. Now it's just my dad, my brother and I. "Roxy and Vic, I am truly sorry for what happened to you, but I would suggest that we sit and talk about everything. Get to answer each other's questions. I am ready to tell you everything, only if you hear me out," dad speaks. I glance at my new wristwatch and it says it's 11PM.How?! How long have we been in here arguing? "Not now, we have to go home," I sigh avoiding eye contact. "Home? This is home," he says, gesturing at the huge room and I know he means Wolf Street. "We can't stay here," Vic says. Dad sighs and clears his throat. "I know where you currently live, I don't know much about that family but they must be treating both

    Roxy's POVLast night was out of the ordinary, with all that happened, all the yelling, the anger that took over me and seeing my father, I hardly got any sleep and spent the time staring into the darkness in a room that I was told was mine. The bed that I'm lying on looks so expensive, and the house decor, quite classy I'd say, looks like it cost dad a fortune. Where does he get all of the money from? I've been to the Street of the Damned for a while now but I have never ever set foot in this house. I used to see it from afar, a large beautiful house with flowers at the front, kind of like Kyrah's house but much bigger. Little did I know that my father spent most of his time in there and that I even had my own room in there! At night, so many memories flashed through my mind. I got so livid at some point, wondering why he did not show up, why no one even bothered to tell us he was alive. The thought of him being so close yet I didn't even know, made me clench my fists, making my na

    "Kids, I never continued having an affair with your aunt Olivia. I only gave her money to ensure that both of you were well taken care of, plus you don't know the whole story." "And that insane woman used all my money and lied that she couldn't afford to pay school fees for both of us. Indeed, she was trying to get rid of us, get us out of the picture and she succeeded," Vic complains. "She wanted to get rid of anything that was standing in her way. I bet she was probably plotting our murder next," I gasp at the realization. She even chased Vic away! "Lady Macbeth!" I say through gritted teeth. "Whatever happened between your aunt and I is long gone. I know both of you have been through alot, especially since your mother passed away–" "You don't even have the slightest idea of what we went through, dad! So don't say you know what we've been through." The scowl on Vic's face tells it all. He's as livid as I am, or even worse and when he speaks, he has direct eye contact with dad.

    "We haven't used it yet, because we weren't sure if this was a scam or not," I inform him."Clever as always," he smiles. "Now you can use it. Anyway, formerly, this place was a small trailer park, known as Wolf Street, the people who I found here were helpless. Some were orphans and widows, some came back from jail and found their women and children had moved away. Others were street families and some were reformed criminals. I decided to gather them all up, and with the help of the firm, we raised money, bought more trailers for them and gave them a home. Bobby was among the first people who lived here. I bought the land myself and swore to protect these people who are now my family, most of them who had no criminal records joined the army, people like Boogie. The government knows we exist, so this is not an illegal place I created. In fact, the mayor provides our security, they aren't goons, Vic. They are what kept me sane. A large family of good people.""Just like they are to me,

    Moments later, we are walking to the parking lot and we find everyone waiting for us. Six different cars are parked and the big team is separated into pairs. A convoy! This is going to be fun. I say to myself inwardly. "Finally, you guys are here," Roxy says. "I was about to go back and eat thinking you guys weren't coming," she continues and we all laugh. I follow Scott towards a sleek black convertible and when we're in, everyone waits to know the way forward. Scott and his dad have been to this place several times, so he knows where we're going. Kye has also been here twice. "Alright guys, Kye will lead the way, everyone else will stay in the middle and I will be at the end. Okay? We're going to make a short stop over to buy some snacks and then continue with the journey. Let the convoy begin its journey," Scott announces and Kye starts his car. "Let's get going guys," Roxy yells and the rest of the cars follow behind closely. "I'm glad to be doing this with you, babe," I say

    With his ocean blue eyes on me, he reaches out to the shower knob and turns it on. Warm water flows down on to us and he leans in to kiss my lips while cupping my face. I begin descending and just as I am about to hold his erect manhood, he stops me and lifts me up. Kisses me so passionately and says, "I wouldn't want the woman that I love to give me a fellatio. I respect you so much to let you do that."Wow! Did he just decline a blow job? I am surprised. He then turns me around and takes the shower gel and begins pouring it all over me, mostly on my breasts. He then presses his body on my back and at that moment, I feel his rock hard manhood pressed against my back and I moan. He then rubs all the shower gel all over my body and then his palms cup my breasts and he begins squeezing slowly, pinching my nipples every now and then and I moan and turn around to look at him. He has this grin on his face. "Let's finish taking a shower first, okay?" he asks and I pout and cross my arms

I've had a couple of interviews but I still haven't gotten any reply.

I love that man with every fibre of my being. He's been so good to me that even every day feels like I'm dreaming.Thinking of him right now makes me want to step on the gas, but I know I don't want to be pulled over for over speeding, so I turn the radio on to calm myself.I still can't believe that I am with the man I have always dreamed of. The one who drives me crazy and makes me feel all giddy and warm inside. The one who stole my heart and the one whom I believe, was meant for me. I just love how my hand fits in his and how my

    "Your Honor, as you have seen for yourself, the accused confessed that he indeed was responsible for the attempted murder of my clients Kyrah Bailey and Scott Stone. That's all, Your Honor," Mrs. Allen says and walks back to sit next to us and I huff out a breath. "Any further questions from the Defense?" the Judge asks Mr. Elliot. "None, Your Honor," he says. He already looks defeated. "Another ten minute recess and when we come back, we shall get to hear from the Jury and get the final verdict," he says and smacks the gavel against the sound block and walks away. Everyone sighs, it seems we were all holding our breaths. Blake has his face in his hands and no one from his family is even talking. They all look shocked. I'm sure none of them had any idea of what he had done. And if they did, then he probably didn't tell them what exactly happened. Ten minutes later, the session continues and we wait for the Judge to be seated and has the defense and defendant counsel stand. "Memb

    "Miss Kyrah, what was your relationship with my client at that particular time?" he asks and I nearly roll my eyes but Mrs. Allen saves me from responding to the idiot. He's asking stupid questions. Idiot Elliot. "Objection, Your Honor!" she says, with a lot of confidence. "Sustained," the Judge says and she continues speaking and Elliot sits down. "During the first hearing, everything was made very clear that my client and the accused were in a relationship, but at the time of the accident, they had already broken up. Which leads to my question," she says and walks to stand in front of Blake. "Where were you during the night of the accident?" Silence. Blake is hesitating. His jaw is trembling and he's licking his dry lips. I bet a big lie is about to pop out of his mouth. "My son was at home with his mother, just the two of them–" Max Dawson begins and stands up but the judge silences him. "Silence in court, let the accused answer for himself," the Judge says, sending Blake's

    Kyrah's POVWe just arrived in court and the way the Dawson family and relatives are looking at us, tells me that they are angry, maybe worried or even stressed. Carla keeps throwing glances at me. Her wet eyes begging me to do something. To even stop all of this but I can't. There's no turning back. I mean, what did Blake expect? The world to be full of happiness and roses for him when he had caused such a tragic thing to me and Scott? Hell no! They say whatever you do or say will always come back to you. Garbage in, garbage out. If he hadn't caused the accident, we wouldn't be here with his family glaring at me like I'm the one guilty of the crime. His grandparents are here, his father and other relatives I barely know. I can tell that this hearing is going to be a very heated one. I even carried a bottle of water with me. When everyone is inside the courtroom, the Bailiff then stands upright and faces our direction."All rise for the Honorable Judge, Ronald Bradshaw," he announce

    "Excuse me?" I begin. "Is this your son, ma'am?" one asks my mom and she nods. She's frowning already. I don't know why, but I don't have a good feeling about this. "Blake Dawson, you are under arrest. You're being charged with attempted murder," the second officer says. "What?!" both dad and mom ask in unison as their jaws drop at the same time. This is the moment I never saw coming. I never expected this to happen to me. The first officer takes a step forward and reaches out to grab my arm but my dad steps in the way. "You're not taking my son anywhere without a warrant of arrest," dad says furiously. The second officer takes out a document and hands it to dad, who reads it together with mom. On my side, my entire body feels frozen, and my heart is beating at a very rapid speed. My armpits have already began sweating. Is the room spinning? I swallow dryly as dad stares at me and I wonder what he's thinking. "I'm afraid your son is going to have to come with us to the station

I have been locking myself up in my room, only leaving to go get my meals and carry them back to my room.I've been thinking alot on what that sweet stranger told me the other day, and also considering what my mom said.I should move on and break this cycle that I am in. Always angry, drunk or having a massive hangover.When I walk into the kitchen, mom doesn't hear me, so when I clear my throat, it startles her and she jumps, nearly dropping the spatula she's holding. She's cooking scrambled eggs. I know those are mine, since she loves her eggs sunny side up."Morning," I say while I scratch my cheek and sit on a stool on the island.She looks surprised that I even spoke to her."Good morning, son. How are you feeling today?" she asks and goes ahead to serve the scarmbled eggs on to a blue plate and places it in front of me. Then she adds some toast and bacon to the plate and she places a g
