“Mommy let's play a game”, Kelcie said excitedly, as the three of us sat outside Josh Xavier's mansion in what seemed to be a field of some sort, a huge one for that matter very suitable for parties, receptions, picnics etc. Kelcie had somehow managed to convince Josh to come outside to play with her, he on the other hand probably may have seen it as a good opportunity to do something other than just sit inside.

“What sort of games exactly are we talking about?” he asked mildly cautiously.

“It's a role game, I'll be Daddy, you’ll be baby, and

Mommy will be mommy.

“But why can't you be baby and I be Daddy?” Josh complained.

“Because I'm always the baby” she replied slightly annoyed as though it wasn't obvious

“Okay”, she said and ran off, soon she was back with some grasses in her miniature plate, eat baby she said to Josh and ran off again.

The look on Josh's face was so comical I burst into Laughter.

“What's so funny?” he asked, annoyed. “I'm really confused on

    Charlotte McCartney “Josh looks like you've not only gotten yourself a wife but also someone to fight your battles for you isn't that right?” Beatrice Xavier asked, staring at me with a sinister smile.“You know I'm his wife and yet you choose to disrespect my husband and daughter before me?” I countered feeling more enraged by this woman, who not only has been able to succeed in making Josh feel more miserable than ever but was also reaching to what she considers other parts of him to do the same thing.“She's a real fiesty one now isn't she?” she said, still trying to downplay my presence and position but wavering a little.“Excuse me lady!” I challenged, feeling bolder than before. “When my grandfather told me about this place, he told me that this house belonged to Josh Xavier, handed to him by his father.

    Josh Xavier The days always seemed the same when I spent it inside. Nothing really happened other than what was already not happening, my misery. That's why whenever I feel miserable I choose to remain indoors. There, I could drown in my nothingness. As a young man I had lived my life in tune with the fever, the rush. But I had been cautious nonetheless. I wasn't one to be dead drunk or deadly intoxicated by drugs or feelings. I played them all with caution and care, I wasn't one to be defined by errors and mistakes contrary to the case I was a perfectionist. But here I lay, an old disabled man, crippled by an accident. The same accidents I had somehow successfully managed to escape all those years when I was a bachelor. I have questioned every possible thing to be questioned on why it never happened then, when I was too immersed in living and working, why I wasn't destablised when I was most stable. Why it happened when I thought it wise to finally have a family, when I found who

    Charlotte McCartney “Hey! Stop there! Where are you going with that bouquet of flowers and box of candy?” The receptionist at the hospital where Josh Xavier had been admitted held my arm.Her grip jolted me to reality. I had been too immersed in my thoughts that I had forgotten to sign in at the entrance.“Oh I'm sorry. My name is Charlotte. I have been here before. I am looking for one of the patients. He was brought in here some weeks ago. The accident victim. His name is Josh Xavier. I brought him these gifts”, I raised the bouquet of flowers as well as the box of candy so she could see it.“And who are you supposed to be?” She examined the flower.“I’m just a friend. My sister is his ex-girlfriend”, I smiled.“So what are you doing here? Please leave here! Don't you know he has been discharged?”She looked ready for a quarrel.TCHHHHHHH!I heard her hissing loudly as I turned to leave. I felt very stupid as I walked away. Why did she have to be so rude? I was there to see a pati

    Charlotte McCartneyTired and drowsy, I started the engine of my car and headed home. It had been more than one week since I walked in on my boyfriend Ron and my sister Whitney kissing in the sitting room, and I had still not gotten over the fact that my sister had stolen my boyfriend.I had also not gotten over mom’s reaction when I explained the situation and the stinging slap she gave me for getting angry and making a big deal over Whitney’s relationship with my boyfriend Ron.So everyday for the next one week, I lived like a ghost, avoiding everyone in the house. Luckily I had my job to escape to and my daughter Elsie to distract me. Still Whitney always found a way to rub their relationship in my face. She took Ron everywhere around the house kissing and fondling each other.For some reason Ron was visiting too frequently. I hoped he would have the decency to stay away for a little while but he did not. He and Whitney were constantly acting like two lovebirds, smiling, laughing a

Your sister and I have removed it from the safe and moved it somewhere else. You can search if you want. You will never find it”, mom said looking at me devilishly.My heart skipped when I heard mom make this shocking revelation. That was all the money I had. The money in my safe which mom and Whitney found and claimed to have kept was not a small amount like mom had said. That was my nine months savings“How did they find the safe? I made sure it was well hidden”, I asked myself feeling very uneasy and my face did nothing to hide my feelings especially with my mouth hanging open as it was.“Why do you look surprised? You didn't think we would find out that you were planning to run away did you?” Whitney asked and laughed like a little demon.“I was not planning to run away with the money. I only hid it there to pr

    Charlotte McCartney The morning that I moved to Josh Xavier's mansion marked the beginning of our marriage. I used to have dreams of my wedding to my prince charming when I was a little girl. I would imagine my wedding dress to be as beautiful as Cinderella’s wedding dress and my husband prince charming. But that was before I got pregnant. It was a long, long time before I gave birth to my daughter Kelcie. Even though I loved her and could not imagine life without her, I knew that my life took a new turn when I got pregnant. I could no longer marry Prince Charming or a billionaire. Mom made sure she sang it to me every day. “No billionaire will marry you after what you have done to yourself. Which billionaire wants a woman as trashy as an Afterone?” Mom constantly repeated, referring to me as an Afterone, a name she used to describe women who gave birth to children for men who refused to marry them. In my case, though, I did not know the father of my child, so it seemed worse.Meet

    Josh Xavier“Many times bad things happen to us and everyone expects us to get over it quickly and move on with our lives. But it's not always so easy to get over things, nor is it so easy to move on. And it's stupid of anyone to expect that”, I said to myself angrily the morning Charlotte and her daughter, Kelcie arrived.My life was different from what it used to be. Three months ago I was involved in a fatal car accident which changed the course of my life. Everyone who has come to visit me since the accident has expressed how lucky I am to have survived the accident. “But what is the use of being alive if I can never walk again? What sort of man have I become? A handicap? I, Josh Xavier a disabled person ", I said and angrily flung the teacup I was holding out of my hand, smashing it against the wall.I hated my life many times I attempted to kill myself but even that I didn't have the balls to do. “Not this Josh Xavier anyway, the former Josh Xavier though. That one had the ball

    Charlotte McCartney After the incident with Josh Xavier, I decided once Kelcie was properly fixated on playing chess on my phone that I was going back to confront him for being such a demon and worse of all he didn't even consider the presence of my little girl while he was being so demon possessed. Whatever it was, I resolved that I was going to tell him to at least have the decency to deal with me personally and for the sake of whatever keep it away from Kelcie. I walked to the same room I first found him almost unconsciously. It wasn't exactly his bedroom from what I heard from Lydia. But from the look of it, it seemed like a place you could find him. In my heart I hoped to find him there. The house was still too unfamiliar and that seemed to be the only place I had managed to take note of. On getting to the room, I found the door slightly ajar and he was inside this time though he did not look as disoriented as he looked at first. “Mr Xavier, I'd like a word” I said breathless

    Charlotte McCartney “Get that shit out of my sight Lydia”, we heard Josh say as we headed to the kitchen. “What is she doing up so early?” he exclaimed,as soon as his eyes fell on Kelcie.“Hello Lydia” I said ignoring his question and waving to Lydia who stood beside him as he sat before a table of food and drugs.“Good morning Ms Lydia”, Kelcie said, running to embrace Lydia.“Hello Kelcie”, Lydia said smiling and returning her embrace.“I know you heard me”, he said, dissatisfied by my refusal to reply.“She's hungry”, I answered , saying only half the truth. The truth was that I was the one who awoke very hungry to find Kelcie also awake. So we decided that it wouldn't be a bad idea to have an early morning breakfast.“Hello Mr. Good morning”, said Kelcie cheerfully as though she had seen an old friend embracing him as well.“Hello little one”, he replied, obviously uneasy by the gesture.“Looks like someone was about to eat”. I guessed that Josh was once again refusing to eat pr

    Charlotte McCartney Josh fell atop the shards of glasses that he smashed.I didn't know exactly how I felt when that happened. A disabled old man got clumsy and fell atop shards of glass. I was numb. Maybe it was how quick it all happened before we could even reach to prevent him from falling or maybe it was the fact that he was nice to Kelcie that actually made me feel bad for this man. As malicious as this may sound, it wasn't said from a place of malice, I held nothing against Josh Xavier aside from the few times he said some mean and awful things to me but my problem with him here was he was evading treatments and medical administration, evading isn't exactly the word he was telling everything to go straight to hell.He lay on the floor grunting and breathing deeply, shards of broken glass had pierced his skin causing him and the floor to be stained with blood.As soon as the Doctor came to help him, he roared, “Get back, don't you come close to me!”The Doctor just stood there

I rolled my eyes at this which she took as encouragement.“Mr”, she said, coming even closer than before putting her little hands on my legs “Can I ride too?” she asked.“No” I answered“Why?” she asked innocently as though as I was trying to stop her from something she thought would be fun. I don't know but something in my depth melted at this. “You'll not want to ride this one”, I said. “We could get you a toy to ride if that's what you want”, I added.“Will you ride it with me?” she asked excitedly.“Of course not,” I replied, feeling a littl

    Charlotte McCartney “What alphabet is this one baby?” I asked, sceptical that she would get that one.“Letter w”, she replied almost immediately.“Oh! my one true genius”, I said, picking her up and blowing on her stomach till she laughed so heartily she held my head to stop.“How about this one? Do you remember this one?” I said, still holding her.“Letter v”, she replied cheerfully.“Baby you've made mommy so happy. What would you want me to buy for you?” I asked cheerfully, then I remembered that I can't exactly buy anything because I don't exactly have any money. Coming here we had to give up everything, I gave up lots of past acquaintances, my job and most importantly Kelcie's education. The issue that led to Kelcie's leaving school didn't have so much to do with money but more to do with the distance from her school to here. Josh Xavier's house was located in a much distant part of the town. It wasn't that there were no schools around here but the schools here are so expensiv

    Charlotte McCartney “Mommy are the cookies ready yet?” Kelcie asked impatiently as she tried hasten me up.“Almost honey. What's the hurry?” I asked, quite confused by my daughter's display. “She is probably just excited about the cookies”, I thought.“Nothing mom” she said smiling cunningly. “Did you make the special ones with chocolate in them?” she asked excitedly.“Of course honey and God I have really wasted time here I promised Lydia I was going to only need to twenty minutes and it's past an hour now. Come on help me put away the plates so I can get here cleaned up”, I said and began tidying the kitchen up.When we were done tidying and were about taking the cookies upstairs to our bedroom I remembered I left her phone back in the kitchen store.“Wait outside here for me honey”, I told my daughter. When I got back there however, Kelcie was nowhere to be found.“Where has she wandered to now?” I asked grumbling. Then I heard soft footsteps which I followed.“That must be Kelci

    Josh Xavier I recall the first time I met Charlotte. It was when she was born to my best friend, Lancelot McCartney. She was a tiny one. I watched her grow. Her grandfather and I were business partners at the time so that made me a frequent visitor in his big home. Lance and I were different in certain respects. For him, he loved family and his home was a full one with children as well as grandchildren. I, on the other hand, never really understood the essence or the need to have a family. All through my years as a young man and middle aged man, I was immersed with working and managing the various enterprises my father had left in my care so I had no time. I did have various romantic relationships with different women from different classes but none led to anything meaningful. I would have continued, but the issue was I had to have an heir. I told this to Lance one evening when we were sitting outside his mansion.“Lance I don't know, anyway it's going to happen but I need an heir
