THE ANGELSThe world around me was spinning and I felt like I was flying on clouds. I tried to open my eyes but I couldn't. I tried again and was only able to do that only by an inch and I saw people in white hovering over me. Who were they? Angels? Before everything suddenly became black again and I felt like I had been dragged to hell.I opened my eyes but quickly closed them because of the lights that blinded me and kept them closed until I was sure I wouldn't get that piercing pain when I opened my eyes.I finally opened my eyes and was greeted by Rena's guilt-stricken face, what was wrong with her?" Are…" I tried to speak but my throat felt dry like I had been smoking all my life. Rena quickly rushed to get me water. That was when I took the time to look at where I was, it was in a hospital room. Somehow someone came to my aid, I sure do have a lot of life.She brought the cup to my mouth and I took it slowly." How do you feel?" Rena asked me as she took a seat beside me. I did

THE HANGOVERI woke up feeling like my head was going to tear and my brain would fall out, my throat felt dry because of the amount of alcohol I had consumed. I picked myself up from where I lay on the floor, picked up my phone from where I had thrown it and went out of the room, it wasn't mine, it was the room I had told myself never to enter again but from time to time I keep finding myself in there, it was the room I and Fiona shared, until she ruined everything.I went into my room and went straight to the shower, after a much-needed shower I came out and headed into my closet to get something to wear, my head was still banging so I picked up my phone to call one of the maids to get me pain reliever and water but saw that I had several missed calls from Jane, what did she want?I decided to call the maid first, my head wasn't feeling right and I needed to calm myself down before I could have any meaningful conversation with anyone.The maid brought the water and medicine as she d

THE AWKWARD DINNERWhen I opened my eyes I knew I felt better than I did when I fell asleep, but my body still felt weak. " Rena," I whispered, I didn't have much energy to speak. She didn't give me any answer and I guessed she must have gone out to get something but to my surprise, I noticed another person in the room and when I turned it was Markus.Was I dreaming?" Markus?" I called his name to make sure I was actually seeing right and indeed he was there as he walked from where he sat on the couch in the hospital room towards me." You look like you weren't expecting me?" He asked as he took a seat on the chair beside my bed. It was true that I wasn't expecting him, after calling him several times and not getting his response, and then when I woke up and expected to see him but didn't, I had lost hope of seeing him here." I'm sure you were worried about your child so you had to come see for yourself that everything was okay?" Because that is what he was always worried about."

HIS NEW GIRLFRIEND Why does he want to have dinner with me? We've not had any conversation since he got here when he and his son basically ignored me like I was irrelevant." Are you sure?" It was a stupid question but I had to ask her to make sure I was right and I had heard her correctly." Yes, he called for me and then he asked me to call you over for dinner." I couldn't ignore him, I'll look very disrespectful, I didn't want to go there, especially if he was anything like his son." Okay," I sighed as I ran my hands through my hair, at least let me look presentable. I grudgingly walked to the other wings of the house. When I got to the door, I contemplated going back but that would make me look like a coward. I could just go back and tell Rena to tell him I hadn't fully recovered and I needed rest. No, I'm already here, so why not just go inside?I took a deep breath and opened the door. He was already waiting at the dining table when I got there." Hello Sir, hope I didn't kee

I just wasn't feeling good today, I don't know if it was my encounter with that lady.I was taken to the examination room and then the doctor checked me and the baby and said that we were both okay. I thanked him and then made my way out of the hospital. I don't know how I ended up here but I just felt something telling me to be here today.Since the day my mom got buried I had not come to visit her grave I felt like we could have been better if death hadn't taken her, we were a work in progress, not the best but we were trying, on the days she tried to blame me for why my father left she was a complete stranger.I sighed as I placed the single rose I bought on my way here, roses were her favorite, she would smile when my dad bought th

KEEP YOUR ENEMIES CLOSER" Jane." He took a step towards me but I moved back." Don't come near me!! Stay where you are." I screamed as he tried to come near me. Did he think he could just go out of my life and come back however he liked?" Please just give me a chance." " What chance are you talking about, give you what? You know what? I don't wanna talk to you or see you around me ever or else I'll call the police."" Jane."" Stop saying my name, I hate how it sounds coming from you, stop!"" Jane, what's wrong? The kids are waiting for you inside." Rena suddenly came behind me." I'll join you shortly," I said as I looked at my father with contempt, he wasn't there when I needed him and now he wants what? To reconnect and come back into my life? Never." Is this man bothering you, do I need to call security?" Rena asked as she looked between him and me." No, we're going back in now," without sparing him a glance I turned away from him going back into the orphanage." Who was tha

THE UNKNOWN FEELING" You're playing a dangerous game, young man." He said as soon as I picked up the call." If I might ask, what exactly are you talking about?" I said feigning innocence." Oh you don't know, do you want me to kill you?" " Mr Murphy, I'm sorry but I don't know what you're talking about." I could tell he was boiling in anger." What the fuck are you doing with my daughter?" He asked in anger." Oh, that? We're just in love, you wouldn't want your daughter to be angry right?"" You're playing with fire." That made me roll my eyes, he thought that would scare me, he was the one who played with fire and now it was time for him to burn." Why don't you go ahead and tell her to stop seeing me and hear what she has to say." His daughter was so easy to sway, she fell for my sweet talk like I was some prince charming." Just stay away from her."" Okay if you say so, but I wouldn't lie to her why I'm breaking up with her and you know she's gonna cry right? I'll just tell he

PREGNANCY EXERCISES " Hold your partner on the waist and help her move back a little, please be very careful don't overdo it," the instructor said and Hardin followed her instructions and helped me bend going gently, I could feel my back loosen from stress, I think I would go for a pregnancy massage soon. It felt good. " Now carefully stretch from side to side, remember, whatever you're doing you have to do it carefully because you're carrying a child and you don't need to stress your body, now let's do it together." This time I didn't need Markus to help me but he stood by my side watching me and I stretched from side to side, it was a simple exercise but with the pregnancy, it wasn't." You all are doing wonderful, let's take a short break." The break was necessary because I suddenly felt like I had been hiking for two days, it was exhausting." You look very tired," " Of course, that was hard." The look he was giving me told me he was finding my attitude funny, he looked like he

A FAMILY " Dad! Dad! save me Mom is going to kill me," Alexandra shouted as she ran up the stairs to her father like she always does." I've warned you several times not to touch the cookies until it was time to serve them" Each time I baked cookies she always found a way to sneak into the kitchen and disappear with one, she was just like her father. They were a team at taking cookies from the kitchen." Have you seen Alexandra?" I asked Markus who was seated on the bed pretending like he didn't hear me, without even getting his answer I could already see Alexandra hiding behind her father's back." No, I haven't seen her, Why?" Like always, he'll cover for her." So there's no one behind you?" I asked as I started walking slowly to where she was hiding behind her father." So who's this?" I started tickling her through the sheet that she had covering her. She broke into a fit of giggling." Mom stop," " Will you pick cookies again?" " No Mom, Dad save me already," " Okay, okay,"

DEATH " Please I'll do anything, just let me know where my daughter is," I said to her hoping she wouldn't end the call. I didn't recognize the voice of the lady speaking." Listen to me carefully," She said and I nodded then realizing she couldn't see me I spoke." Yes, I'm listening." " Don't you try any funny business, if you do, your daughter dies." I heard crying in the background as if they were trying to emphasize their point." I'll do whatever you say, as long as you give me my daughter," " Okay, I'm going to send you an address, make sure you come alone, no police, just you," " No funny business, I swear," I said, trying to plead with her." I'm glad we have an understanding, because I'm sure my tigers wouldn't mind munching on her little flesh," My heart skipped, I couldn't dare imagine the image of tigers feasting on my baby.The phone suddenly got disconnected at the same time Rena opened the door.I almost forgot I was warned not to tell anyone the information I had

THE STRANGE CALLERJane has refused to talk to anyone even after she woke up. We were now home. I had to call the doctor to come check up on her and he confirmed that she was okay. What was happening to her was all because of the shock.She has refused to eat, no matter how many times or what type of food was brought to her.The last thing she said was I want my baby. After that, she refused to speak.Now I was trying to get her into the house. She wouldn't listen, she had been sitting and waiting in front of the house." Jane, let's go inside, please this isn't going to help with finding Alexandra, I can't focus on you like this please," She finally listened as she grudgingly stood up and walked past me not uttering a single word.I sighed as I turned to go inside but stopped when I noticed someone walking towards the house." You've got to be kidding me," I muttered as my eyes shot daggers at him." What do you think you're doing here?" " I'm not here to see you, I'm here for my fr

KIDNAPPED The world around me became dark, everything around me was covered in darkness like I was being cast a spell. Alexandra wasn't in her room, she wasn't with Markus then where was she?" Ma'am, ma'am," I felt someone shaking me but my mind was too clouded. The person didn't stop which made me eventually come back to my senses." Alexandra, Alexandra," That was the first thing I said as soon as I realized myself and remembered my situation." Go! Go! Tell the security to search the whole house, search everywhere, my daughter is in this house," I said as the maid quickly kicked into action.If I found out Markus was playing some silly games with me I swear I was going to chop off his balls.I went to Alexandra's room to search for her, for all I knew she might be in her room.I opened the door and rushed to her bed but she wasn't there. Alexandra was still a baby, she couldn't sit or crawl, I would have concluded that she crawled from my room to hers but she couldn't. Even if sh

MISSING CHILDI have never pushed someone with so much force the way I just pushed Markus, I didn't know where the power came from." How dare you? What gave you the right to think you could touch me?!" I yelled in anger." What? Do you think you could just throw me and pick me however you want? I'm not your toy, the next time you think of ever touching me, know that you might lose an organ and I will not be held responsible." I was beyond angry and I needed to calm myself before I did something stupid.Markus was looking at me with shock in his eyes as if he couldn't believe what just happened, did he expect me to run into his arms like a woman in heat? He's got to be kidding me.Without sparing him another glance I ran upstairs. Did he think that just because he had the power to tell me not to see my daughter he could blackmail me and make me do whatever he wanted?I'm a changed woman, he changed me.I opened Alexandra's room and she was sleeping so I quietly walked to her. She had

ANGER KISS I stood in front of his house as I scanned my eyes around, well it was a beautiful building, I had no grudge against his house, I was just here for him.I rang the doorbell and not up to a minute the door came open. I was sure he wasn't expecting me, maybe Jane.The look on his face told me he would rather speak to pigs than spend a minute of his time talking to me." What are you doing here?" He asked with a hard voice, I didn't care if he was sad or happy to meet me." Well is that how you welcome the father of your friend's child?" His jaw ticked but he didn't say a word. I knew what I was doing. I wanted to let him know that whatever happy ending story he had about Jane in his head needed to be wiped. I had the upper hand here. I have the child Jane is in love with and it's just because I don't want her to hate me more than she already does I would have told her that my condition is for her to stop seeing this man." I didn't invite you here, so you might as well go b

NOT FRIENDS I looked at Markus like he had gone mad, he was looking for another way to hurt me. A few days ago Markus didn't want me near my child, so why did he want me back in the mansion? With what had happened between us I had to be very careful, he couldn't be trusted anymore because once bitten twice shy." How is this of benefit to you?" I asked because he definitely had a reason why he was doing this that he was not telling me." This is for my child, you were right, I shouldn't separate you from her just because I didn't want you, she should have her mom," Was I dreaming? Markus agreeing with me on something was something I never pictured even in a thousand years. This was all too good to be true." So what you're trying to say is I can see Alexandra whenever I want, like even right now?" I asked, if what he was saying was true I might as well go see my daughter now." Yes," I didn't need more convincing, I stood up, picked up my handbag, and left. As long as nobody was sto

ANOTHER DEAL Without thinking I rushed to him and threw a punch at him." Markus!" I heard Jane shout but I was ready with my second punch to land on his stupid face but fortunately for him someone stopped me." Fucking bastard, you've refused to stay out of my business," I said with anger boiling inside of me. Jane rushed to him as she took her kerchief from her bag to clean the blood that was on the side of his lips. The sight didn't sit well with me." Markus, what is wrong with you? Why do you want to hurt me so much? First my child, now you're hurting my friends too, what did I ever do to you?" Jane asked with tears forming in her eyes." Jane it's okay, there's no need to cry I'm okay there's nothing to worry about," I watched in agony as the Hardin guy brought his hand to clean Jane's tears. I fisted my hands trying to control myself or else I was going to start punching him till his face was covered in blood.I promised Jane that I would always wipe her tears, I didn't like h

THE COURTROOM I was standing in front of the courtroom dreading going inside, stepping into this room meant I had officially given them the power to decide over my daughter, I didn't know what decision they were going to make. But I was scared.With all the willpower I had I opened the door and stepped in. Hardin wanted to come with me but I told him not to, he didn't like the idea but for my sake, he just had to agree.As I entered the courtroom surprisingly Markus was already in the room with my baby girl held in his arms. Our eyes locked for a moment before I broke the contact. I didn't want to look at him, it was just a painful reminder of what had happened between us, what he made happen.I took my seat as we awaited the case to start.Soon enough I was asked to move to the front where I would stand to answer some questions, if necessary. The judge entered the courtroom and everyone rose. My heartbeat increased and my palm started sweating, this was really happening." This cou
