SANDRA"To also think that he is very accurate. He knows everything even without asking. Are you sure he isn't monitoring us?" "I doubt. We need to prepare and leave this place to make our hair, or else we might be late." I hurried everyone to get prepared to go and look good. When we came outside. We asked a passerby if we would see a saloon around and she pointed at a place where we would just trek down. "Thank you very much." We all had to trek and also feed our eyes. When we got there, there wasn't much of a crowd but it was a big place with different staff workers. We were given a magazine to choose the hair we wanted. I made my own choice. I needed a packing gel and curled hair at the center and both sides, close to my face. While the stylist was attending to our hair, the others were attending to our nails. I had already told the driver to send a makeup artist in the evening so that I could do that at home without spoiling it with heat. They took time but it was worth it
SANDRAOur flight was in the morning so we woke up early to prepare. We couldn't pack our box last night because of the stress. That morning, there was no time to discuss. We were all rushing to get set because the driver would soon arrive so that we wouldn't miss the flight. When he arrived, our boxes were already in the living room. He began to take them inside the car. "Are you all set?" "Yes," we chorused. We all entered the car and we left for the airport. I felt like not leaving because of the whole service. It took us two hours to get to the airport because of little traffic. We checked into the airport and we thanked the driver so much for his kindness. I put my hand into my handbag. "Please accept this little token, you have been of great help to us." He shook his head negatively and waved his hand that he was not going to accept it. "Why not?" After much persuasion from my mother, he finally took it and thanked me. We climbed into the plane and we waved at him befo
SANDRA I asked the Major what the problem was, he told me it was about his health. Out of human empathy, I had to quickly rush down to his office because anything about one's health, I don't like delay so that I can save a life. The secretary took me to his office and left me there. When I entered, I didn't see him as someone who was sick and I began to wonder."Sir, you called me." "Yeah, Sandra, congratulations once again on the awards given to you." "Thank you very much, sir." "You see….. you deserve it. When President Flores called me to his house, he told me to compile a list of those that have performed well in Vegas and I told him that we don't have any others apart from Sandra." He started laughing at his speech and I had to join him so that he wouldn't feel bad. "Thank you, sir." "Yes, I was also surprised when the medical team called me and told me that they would also want to award you. I had included it in the list because we appreciate hard work. Congratulations
SANDRAAfter I closed from work that evening. I had to drive down to the president's house to go and meet with him on the appointment we had. When I got there he was happy to welcome me and he firstly apologized that he wouldn't be present on my birthday. "That is not a problem sir.""Please come and sit down and tell me what has been happening. I saw what you posted on the internet and everybody's worried about your safety. Maybe I should assign you some security guards because I know you have become very popular and so many people are not happy about it.""No you don't have to sir, I am very okay and comfortable just that the little issue I have is with the Mayor that was appointed a few months ago.""What about him? What you said on those videos are they true?""They are very correct sir. I was called to his office a few days back and I thought it was a matter of urgency like he sounded about his health. I had to quickly rush down to his office but I met him hale and hearty. He t
SANDRA"Hello, who am I on to please?""I guess I'm speaking with Dr Sandra.""Yes, you're right. How may I help you?""I was actually at your place this evening but you didn't come back on time so I had to leave.""Yes, I'm sorry about that. I had to attend to so many things.""That's fine. I would like to see you in your office tomorrow. I don't know if that is okay with you.""No problem, so long as it is in my office. I will make availability for you to see me.""No problem, I just wanted to inform you beforehand since I couldn't see you today. Have a good night's rest""Thank you very much. Good night."I wonder who it was. The person was so straightforward and I just hope it's not one of those thugs sent by the mayor. The next morning, I prepared for work but I didn't meet my mother at home but my maid told me that she had something important to attend to that was why she left very early.I took my breakfast and I went to work. I made sure I attended to patients and when my ass
PRESIDENT FLORESI thought of what Sandra told me and I was so disappointed about what the Mayor did. How could someone old enough to be her father be threatening her with a lot of things just because he wants her for his son, that is what I call greediness. Since the son is not interested in her, why make the whole thing look like a very big thing? Why was he causing so much drama? I was so restless throughout the night because I didn't know what next they'd be planning for this young lady. The next morning I had to call the son, Chris, to visit me in my office instead of my house. I used it because of that and went to the office and when he arrived he was shocked to know that I invited him over. "Young man, have your seat. What exactly is the problem with your father? What issue do you have with him that you both cannot settle?""I am very sorry Mr President, it was not planned. I don't know why my father has become so adamant that he wants me to get married to Sandra all because
SANDRAWhat exactly is going on? The information on the internet is almost the same thing. Let me check what is happening. I turned on the television, my mother came to join me and we heard the speech the president gave. My mother was very happy that she danced around and I was very shocked because I didn't know that the president would attend to this case very soon. Now he has been stripped of his position which I told him although I never meant what I said and he will be vacating the mayor's house in less than 24 hours. Now you see… because of that position he thought he was able to do whatever he likes not knowing that I have backups. What was Alfred thinking he wanted to do? Was he thinking of arresting him which was not going to be possible? Taking the case to the president was the best thing and I'm glad I did it before meeting with Alfred so that my mind wouldn't have been taken away. My birthday was in the evening and everybody was getting prepared but I just wanted to kn
I can't believe what is happening. Sandra is engaged but, this is the son of the former president of the United States. How come? How did their paths cross? What are all these? I kept on pacing from one end of my living room to another scratching my head. I couldn't endure the pain. I picked up one glass cup and smashed it on the wall and it got shattered. Chris deceived me. How could I be deceived this way? I loved her so much. I wanted to make her my wife. She was even pregnant for me. I know she's still carrying that child. Did she tell that young man that she was pregnant? I have to do something about it.I can't let this slide. She's carrying my child and I must get her back. I have the evidence here with me. I began to think of how to get her. Her number wasn't reachable anymore. I decided to reach her through her social media handle but it wasn't going through or rather she wasn't just responding to me.I noticed that the preparations for the wedding were ongoing. It is be
MICHIGANA few weeks later after the incident at Damien's mansion, I felt sick and became bedridden due to a very unusual flu which I ignored at the start.I thought deeply as to where that moment of fantasy would lead me and Damien, it felt different as I embraced the mutual feeling we both shared and gave in to my heart's deepest desire.The flu kept me from work and doing anything productive leaving me with no other option than to hire a maid. I was too stubborn to go to the hospital as I feared that I would have to spend days thereafter testing.Just as I sat in my room with my wipes on my side and my nose as red as that of the red reindeer, my maid walked into the room and there seemed to be someone at the door as well."Someone is here to see you madam.""Come in."I responded with anticipation as I watched the door to see who it was, surprisingly I saw Damien walk into the room with flowers in his hand.His expression changed when she saw the drain look on my face that hinted a
DAMIENThe death of my father was more than a shock to me as I still could not grasp the level of the situation. What I felt in the aftermath of my father's death was indescribable.I would sometimes be lost in my mind each time I thought about his death, it would seem as if I had lost my mind and driven to madness.A few friends of my father had gathered in the mansion to mourn him after the burial, and countless people all came to me to say the same thing over and over again.It became infuriating but I had no other option than to keep up and put up an understanding face. I left the main room where all the guests were gathered to the outskirts of the mansion.To my greatest surprise, I saw the most unexpected guest I didn't think would come, I watched as she walked out of her car and her driver drove off to park the vehicle."Michigan."I stuttered as I still could not believe my eyes as I saw her in a black dress approach where I stood, she looked even more beautiful in the dress.
ARMANDOI looked at the letter that weakened me from the very moment I saw it, a letter from my long-lost family.All my life I never thought that this day would come when I would meet my people again, a cluster of emotions raided my mind as I couldn't help but feel an outburst of happiness and sadness at the same time.The name I had made for myself as well as Michigan made it easier for anyone to find us as well as my long-lost parents."What about Michigan?"The one thought that made me think straight in the fog of all those emotions, I spent so much time with her as we became a crucial part of each other and I could not help but feel what this message would do to her once she heard.I closed my eyes as tears dripped down my cheeks, there was only one road for me to take and it would be a painful one but the best for us both.I walked into Michigan's office after leaving my desk with a different sense of being, I took my steps slowly in an attempt to find the right words to disclos
CLARAI could not help the fact that my meeting with Paul caught me off-guard as I did not expect anything like the outcome of what I encountered, it made me drive with a worried mind."Why do I keep getting this intuition that something wrong would happen?"I thought aloud in the car as I drove alone, the exact words rang through my mind as I approached the end of my destination.Arriving at the mansion with the same worried and troubled countenance as I walked up to the door, the mansion appeared even more quiet than usual as I stood at the door surprised."What is going on here Damien?"I asked as I saw him sit in anticipation and with a menacing look on his face, he sipped the glass of juice before bringing himself to speak to me."Look at those test results, all the answers you need are in there."He spoke in such a calm tone which made the situation even more frightening as I touched the test slip on the table. He watched me like a predator waiting for me to make the wrong move
ARMANDOTo my greatest surprise, she did not even seem fazed by the fact that I was with Paul, it was almost as if she knew about us the entire time which I highly doubted."Why am I not surprised to see the right-hand man or should I say servant of Michigan, you guys do make quite the duo after all."She spoke with a sense of calmness as none of what had happened seemed to catch her by surprise, even with the element of surprise on our side she was not moved."I haven't got all day Paul, If you have something to say to me you might as well go on with it or save us the stress of having such an absurd meeting.""I did not come here to banter words with you Clara for that time is far behind me, you decided that you do not want me in Benjamin's life knowing fully well that he is my son and not Damien's."I watched as Paul poured out his mind to Clara in a tone that I never heard him use until the moment he accepted the gruesome fate that Clara presented him with."I will leave his life b
ARMANDO"We were able to apprehend the assassin as well as his employer who happened to be an underground drug lord portraying an addictive gambler to the public. I got the drug lord to talk and he confessed to his crimes."The detective said as he revealed the concluding aspects of the investigation, one thing was still ringing in my mind and I waited for him to finish the reveal before I asked."There is still one part of the investigation which seems like you skipped it, it's the part that concerns Michigan and happened to the same thing that linked her to the case.""I was just getting there, the drug lord also revealed that he was working with Clara whose sole aim was to frame your boss for the crime while the main plan was to kill Paul."Such a full disclosure was certain to drive one into a state of unparalleled shock, I stood my ground in disbelief as I slowly assimilated the information that shook me."it is now up to you guys if you will press charges against her or not, you
DAMIEN"Hello madam so sorry to have kept this from you till this time but Benjamin fell sick last night and right now I have him in the hospital receiving treatment."I spoke with a polite tone as I disclosed the current situation with Benjamin to his school management. They were more than ready to give him as much needed time as possible to recover."We will find time to get his classmates and the staff to visit him, my regards to him.""Will do, madam."I responded to the headmistress as I hung up after seeing the presence of one who completely changed my neutralized countenance, someone who needed to be here but not the type I would expect to arrive at anything early."Where is he, where is my son?"Clara asked as she walked straight to the room I was standing close to, I stopped her from entering as the nurse was still administering his medication."Hold your horses right there, you barge in demanding to see a son you didn't even bother to check on before driving off to some busi
DAMIENAfter a day of nonstop paperwork even as the owner of the company, I returned to my mansion with a weighted expression and a tired countenance.All I needed was rest at the moment, nothing more nothing less as I crawled out of the car, trying to lift my entire body and the briefcase I held in hand."Nancy!"I called out to Benjamin's nanny as she was the only maid in the house before crashing into the nearest couch I could find in the living room, loosening my tie as I awaited her arrival.After a few minutes of no response, I decided to call her as I had no more strength left in me to call out at the fullest extent of my lungs."Where are you, Nancy?" I asked immediately if she picked up my call, "I have been calling you since I got back and you are nowhere to be found.""I went to the store to pick up something that Mrs. Clara ordered, she asked me to rush down here a few minutes before you called sir."It was not of her own doing as the task sounded exactly like something Cl
DETECTIVE LEONARDSteven added as he then approached the pair to apprehend them, I could sense that one of the two suspects would want to defy the odds and try to pull a stunt on us.The more deadly tossed the nerdy guy unto Steven as he immediately jumped through the big vent that sat behind him, a smart move that I did not anticipate."Cuff him!"I said to the detective as I ran off to meet up with the escapee who happened to have planned his getaway plot if something like this were to happen. To my greatest surprise, the officer caught him before he could get on his feet, cuffing him up as he could not pull any more tricks out of the bag."You nearly got killed in there, I hope this goose chase you were about to take us on was not for nothing or else you will have me to answer?"The suspect did not want to answer as he held a bold and overconfident expression with me, he wanted to make this even harder than it already was but I knew just what to do to get to him.I drove them back
