Zain got to Susan's ward and got in wordlessly. He met chills and shivered.

"Indeed how life snaps out of us," he thought and walked towards the body lying still on the bed, covered with a white sheet.

A tear dropped from his eyes, somehow he felt he was careless and not watchful enough. That's why she had to die but what could he have done? His mind kept replaying his last moments with her.

"I don't know why you have to die but this state you are in is not what is supposed. Who do you leave the baby for, Susan?"

He was almost breaking down but manned up.

He carefully lifted the sheet and stared at the pale face for a few minutes without saying a word. He slowly put the sheet back and turned around.

He felt a presence behind him and spun around ready to snap at whoever it was. When he turned around, he saw nothing. He sighed and then left the ward.

Tasha's point of view…..

I, mom, and Trucy sat at the dining table staring at our breakfast. We could not bring ourselves to eat even

    Lucas!Damnit!I cursed under my breath.I actually forgot he said he was coming to pick me up. Who would remember anything else in my state? I picked up the call and waited for him to say something."Hi, Jenny! Good morning to you," he sounded happy and energetic as usual."Morning Lucas, how has your day been?"I asked in an effort to keep my tone light and happy."Great, what about yours?""I'm fine too, thank you.""That's great, I'm glad"Then a momentary silence followed"So uh.. what time are we meeting again, today?" He questioned nervously"I am sorry, Lucas but I don't think it's possible," I said softlyHe exhaled sharply and mumbled, "why?"I knew he was disappointed, no need to blame him."I lost my sister," I told him truthfully. I felt guilty each time I talked about my sister's death, she shouldn't have died but she did."I am so sorry, darling. I will come over to see you then."His voice was filled with concern. I wanted to say yes then I remembered Zain would not li

    Jenny's point of view…. The doorbell woke me up. I did not know how long I have been sleeping. The sun was almost completely covered by the dark clouds, a sign that it will rain soon. "Hello? Anyone home?" A voice from outside asked. It sounded like a voice I knew, it was no mistake that it was my mom's voice.I quickly jumped off the bed and got ready as fast as possible. I exited my room to go and open the door. The door flung open and I found Mom standing with a pale face. She looked terrible. Her hair was messy; she had bugs under her eyes. There were also dark circles around her eyes. But what caught my attention most was the fact that she was wearing a dress that I didn't see her wear for ages.She took one look at me before engulfing me in a hug. After some minutes, she released me."Mom, are you okay?" I asked, worried about how she looked."Oh, yes, dear," she smiled weakly. "How are you too?" she asked after she finally composed herself. "I am fine, mom," I replied wit

    Owen said nothing and commenced eating even though he was forcing himself to eat.Francis observed Owen, he noticed how much more attractive he looked. His light brown hair framed his oval face perfectly.Francis couldn't help thinking if there were other similarities, such as height, maybe he should ask. Owen could not stand the stares anymore and snap at Francis. "Can you stop looking at me or do you intend to stare forever?" He raised his eyebrow at Owen's remark. It didn't matter to him either way. He didn't even blink.Take a chill bro, you are handsome and I couldn't help but stare," Francis said amusingly, causing Owen to frown slightly. He couldn't believe that a guy dared to look straight into his eyes and tell him such. "Mind you, I am not gay," Owen said and looked away."I am not one either, I just like to appreciate beautiful things so don't get me wrong," Francis said, chuckling. "I see, well it wasn't me that wanted you to look at me," Owen retorted, getting flustere

    "It's hard I guess," Vivian shrugged."Why? What happened?" David asked, this time more worried. Vivian took one last glance at him and sighed in defeat."I lost a dear friend," she said and started playing with the ends of her hair as she spoke."I am so sorry, dear," David said as he pulled her into a hug. She has stopped moving back now and let him hug her. She felt calm in his arm and inhaled deeply. when Alice hugged her, it was close to what she is feeling now.It was comforting, familiar almost. Vivian buried her face in the crook of David's neck and breathed in deeply.Vivian broke away from the embrace a while later and smiled weakly at him."Thank you," she said softly as she picked up the forgotten blanket on the ground beside the bed. She folded the blanket and dropped to the edge of her bed and looked up at David. "I think I will be fine, you don't need to stand there and watch me," she said dismissively."Sorry, I can't leave you like this. You look like you have not eat

  • In Love With My Brother-in-law   Funeral

    Writer's point of view..... It was Susan's funeral service and everyone including Jenny, Zain, Harrison, Ethan, Nathan, Tasha, June, Vivian, Thomas, Jenny's Mom, and the Reverend were present. No one asked after Owen. They were all wearing black and Black umbrellas and each having a flower. The stretcher wheeled Susan's casket to the city Cemetery as everyone made a way for it. Dr. Emmanuel was walking behind it. He had a black shade that hid his red eyes. Jenny's eyes welled up in tears and she sniffed them back."You just choose to die," she mumbled coherently. The stretcher stopped at her grave made for her and the Reverend shook his head sadly. He heard what caused her death and wondered if humans are worth anything. The headstone read. SUSAN ZIDAT 1997 TO 2021. She was just 24 years old and gone so soon. it's a pity she would not grow past the age of 24. The hymns were sung and prayers were made. The Reverend told it's important to be ready at all times because death can

    The cemetery turned quiet and Susan slowly manifested on her grave then pulled the box out with a snap of her hand. "I would not allow you to experiment with my body. Bad for you, before you come back, My body will be long rotten and there will be no need for you to use it."She said and vanished, leaving the box on the gravesideJenny's point of view… The house felt so lonely and calm. The night was fast approaching and I could not believe that my dearest sister had been laid to rest. It's not been quite long since we got back from the cemetery. I didn't know why Zain buried her so fast but it was good anyway. She needs to rest. That's the least we could give her. I took a deep breath as the tears were threatening to fall again."Are you okay? Zain's voice called me back into reality.I nodded as I wiped away the tears and looked at him. He had a concerned look on and was still wearing his coat and boots. I was actually standing in the living room and facing one of t

    Jenny's point of view… I was sure if I heard the lady correctly. Like what the hell was she talking about?"Zain had sex with you and you are pregnant for him?" I asked, trying to keep my cool. Mom was shocked and one can tell by the way she was staring at the lady. "Yeah, that's right. I had thought of just seeking for child's support but I just heard he lost his wife and no baby is involved. So you see why I am here, to take my place," She said, laughing with her eyes closed as if she had told a great joke. I didn't find any joke in that statement except that this woman is delusional. I looked from her to Zain who had his head buried in his hands. Mom stood up and left and I thought of following her but what will that make me? I can't lose Zain to my sister and still lose him to a stranger. Like for how long will I fight until he becomes mine? I love him so much that I can't even begin to imagine letting go of him for the second time. No matter how painful the pain i

    The seconds ticked by with me doing nothing but staring at the wall blankly. Things were not going the way they should. "I think I need to know what's going on here, don't you think so?" I heard and I turned towards mom. She has changed. The look on her face was expressionless. I sighed and shifted a little, gesturing for her to come to sit down. She walked up to the bed and stared at me for a while before sitting. "So tell me all I need to know, I am all ears," Mom said, still not taking her eyes off me. I nodded in confirmation before starting. "Mom, meeting Zain did happen and we dated. He came out of the blues after my fifteenth birthday and told me it was over between us. I tried asking why but all he could say was I am not all fleshly. I did not know that the new lady he was seeing was Susan until the day Susan brought him home. I could not fight because I was a minor, I couldn't tell you either, and again, I thought since he was dating my sister that it was

    "We are with you every step of the way," Mom said after a while. The silence was threatening to engulf us, thank God she broke it. "You will have to do me a favor. In no circumstances should you tell anyone where I am. If possible, deny ever seeing me." I pleaded with Mom "It's going to be hard but we will do it," Miss Celine assured me, holding my shoulders. "I guess your mom and I had to be the one keeping ourselves company from now on. This is for the best. Just know that I will miss you dearly." She added, smiling at me. It seemed to break something inside me as tears were already filling my eyes. She held me tight, not letting go for several seconds before letting go and I wiped my tears. " Okay, guys let's go see what there is to eat?" She shouted and Michael wriggled himself down from my arms, both of them ran to her as she took them out of the room. She blew kisses to me before exiting the room "Find the kitchen yourself. You are now part of the family," Mom shouted after t

    I continued when it was obvious she was not going to say anything until I was done "It was like nature was with me, your stay back home lingered and school wasn't opening anytime soon. I was initially at Tasha's place and her mom being a nurse, she was getting closer to knowing the truth so I looked for an alternative and that's where Miss Celine came in. My spirit accepted her the moment I saw her and I knew I was going to trust her, so we told her about my pregnancy and the circumstances surrounding it. She took me in without questions. I found out she was unmarried and which I found odd. I was eight months gone when you returned back home, I had to keep lying to you to let me be at Tasha's place. "After I delivered the twins three months to my sixteenth birthday, I could not keep lying to you so a month later I returned home and three months later school was reopened."She let go of my hands and sat on her bed, "so how did they survive without you and what about the money

    I walked through the door and halted. The door was slightly opened so I was able to open it noiselessly. She was cooking and it was my favorite, oatmeal. Looked like she missed me and she decided to prepare the meal for her so she doesn't miss me much. I was just so glad she was okay, that b*stard did not harm her. I dropped my handbag on one of the dinner chairs and walked towards the kitchen, tiptoeing. She was having her back on me, facing the pot and stirring the content inside. Her hair was packed up and she had one of her favorite red long gowns on. I saw her back stiffened and she swiftly turned towards me. I stood moving and stared at her speechless. Her expression turned from rigid to surprise then to mild. She walked towards me in a flash and engulfed me in her arms,"oh! My baby! I have missed you so much." She said rocking me to and fro. I had to check my brain to remember when I saw her last and it was yesterday. How come she missed me so much? "Mom, I m

    I stood fazed for a moment, trying to understand what she said. Like, was she for real. I have not got out of the one I entered and another lady was on the line to finish me completely but looking at the offer, it was something that would favor me. She was beautiful and curvy. How would Jenny feel if she gets to know that I replaced her the day she left? It would be depressing and I think I like the sound of that. "Is that all?" I asked, smiling. She was surprised, her expression said so. I bet you she was not expecting me to agree to that. "Yeah but are you for real?" she replied slowly, raising her eyebrows at me and looking puzzled. I sighed deeply before nodding and saying, "yes.""Or are you not interested again?" I questioned, raising my brows this time around. "Of course I am interested," she responded, getting up and smiling coyly at me, "I will do anything you want and you will not regret that.""I bet I won't. The name is Zain Zidat and you are?" "Lora Leigh.""Ni

    For a moment I froze, not moving, allowing him to kiss me. It was grossing but I must admit, I kind of like the feeling but so to say, it was irritating at the same time.I slowly parted my lips and let out a breathy sigh against his mouth, I could feel Felix smiling against me.As he broke the kiss I felt a tingling sensation in my stomach. "How dare you kiss me like that?!" I snapped as I tried to pull away."How dare I!? Well, what'chu gonna do 'bout it? Don't try to escape me!" He smirked.I scoffed before crossing my arms "Oh yeah?""Yeah, you should feel lucky that it isn't me who is trying to get away right now."I narrowed my eyebrows at him. He smiled at me before chuckling.I huffed, "shut up!""Make me," he murmured under his breath before leaning forward kissing me again. I suddenly became angry and pushed him away, made to get out of the car but he gripped my wrist," I am sorry if I overstepped my boundary." He whispered.I sighed and leaned my head back on the head

    "Hi Tasha, were you planning to leave without going into the ice cream shop?" Felix asked, walking over to me. He had a plastic bag with him and it looked like he just stepped out because his sports car was parked a few inches away from the shop or let's say he was just coming into the ice cream shop for the first time today which I doubted. I really don't get it, the Shylins are one of the richest in town yet Mrs Shylin, his grandmother runs an ice cream shop. I chuckled nervously," Ahaaa! not really."I responded, scratching my hair in an awkward manner. "Let me get this straight, you had in mind to come here and at the last minute, you changed your mind because you might run into me?" He caught me right there and I didn't know how to tell him he was wrong which I know he was not. I chuckled as I nodded, "yeah, that's what it sounds like."He gave me an odd look before he turned towards the door and started walking in. "Felix darling, where did you go?"I heard Mrs Shyli

    Zain and Thomas met the trio at the entrance of the house as they were about to go out like Thomas requested. Thomas stared at Harrison and cringed, the aura he was getting from Harrison wasn't a good one and before he could understand why, Harrison spoke up. "Hey Zain, where are you going, looking like you lost your life," Harrison commented looking concerned. "I am just stepping out with Thomas, I did not realize you guys were coming over to my house." Zain said, trying not to look like his problem. "Oh, sorry about that. We came to congratulate Jenny on her engagement with you, telling you would have spoiled the surprise."Harrison said and walked in leaving them standing at the door. Zain turned to Thomas,"can we do this later?""Sure. When you are done let me know," Thomas replied, giving him a gentle smile and left for his own house. Zain turned on his heels and walked back into the house followed by Ethan and Nathan. Harrison was seated before the trio walked into the livi

    Jenny's point of view… When I saw Celine's call, I was relieved. It means she was safe and sound with my kids. I had to pretend as if nothing was wrong because she was this sensitive person that smells your trouble from faraway. I was sitting inside the car, parked at a stop for over fifteen minutes now with no destination in mind. I knew I was going to go home but was I ready to explain to mom that I had kids? How I was able to hide the pregnancy from her. She will be mad, so mad that it would take grace for her to understand that I did what I did because I wasn't ready to face her. "I am glad you are but we need to talk." That statement alone was ready to give me a heart attack. Though this was not the first time she had mentioned 'we need to talk' that kind of thing. It was like her every other day phrase but today, regarding what I had gone through in the past few hours I wasn't sure if they were okay so I panicked. I was worried and expecting her to talk but she was taking ti

    Zain's point of view…. The moment the door closed I went down on my knees, clutching my heart. It was breaking into pieces and I could not do anything about it. I did not stop her from leaving and I was not sure it was the right thing to do. What can I do for her to forgive me? Wasn't she supposed to tell me that she has not forgiven me instead of going this extreme and was I to hate her after everything? It was obvious she stopped loving me a long time ago and I had foolishly thought she still loved me. "Zain, it's your fault. If you had not looked in another direction, what is happening now would have been prevented. Deal with the rejection or find a way to get her back but let her off for a while, you both need your space." I advised myself which seemed like the worst advice ever. I was not strong enough to live without her, she actually gave me my ring back, wow! "Jenny, why?" I kept asking that question. This was too much for me to bear. She indeed planned this reven
