Sheena was lost in a trance as she stood in the kitchen. Her mind was clouded and heavy. She hadn't been able to come up with any more information to help her father. It seemed as though Mr Dominic knew she had become a spy. He barely spoke about business at the house, not even in the confines of his study when she eavesdrops.She felt helpless and it turned out that the situation served her a lot more than she could have as her sister, Elena didn't want to believe Damian was in on the plan. Sheena's gut feelings told her differently and Elena didn't want to hear any of it.Her sister was in love with the snake. Sheena didn't have any proof except her intuition and it made it harder to convince Elena. Even her logical point that Damian was Mr Dominic's lawyer and it was expected of him to handle such matters made absolutely no sense to Elena.'Oh, Elena.' Sheena muttered to herself as she thought of her sister.'Did you say something to me?' Maria asked.Sheena had completely forgot
'What were you doing in the study?' Michelle asked Sheena as they almost bumped into each other. Michelle had just seen her father go upstairs and was certain Mr Dominic wasn't in the study so it baffled her why Sheena was exiting that room.Sheena had gotten used to their hate speech towards her and was no longer bothered by them nor was she bothered about befriending Michelle and her sister, Mirabel.Sheena had come to deduce that they were two bitter women who were looking for whom to rub off their bitterness.Sheena ignored Michelle and strode past her, head held high, consciously letting Michelle know she wasn't going to be responding to her.Michelle stood livid, glaring at Sheena's receding behind and her eyes darting to the study doors. Michelle wanted to pull Sheena back and claw at her face. She felt disrespected.Michelle decided to head for the study instead. Her curiosity as to what Sheena had been doing in the study, got the better of her.She entered the study to find D
Sheena reached the kitchen to find Maria trying to get Raymond to eat. The childish man was giving the woman a hard time as he kept running around the kitchen refusing to eat.Raymond almost knocked Sheena down along with the tea tray she still has in her hands. Sheena was able to steady herself and keep the cups from falling.Raymond immediately ran to Sheena's back to hide from his mother.'This boy will be the death of me.' Maria said with exasperation.Sheena chuckled at her frustration. She sometimes pitied the woman. It wasn't an easy task to take care of a child and it was a lot more challenging to care for one all his life.Raymond grew up, but his mind never grew. Maria had said she didn't have the money to go for a treatment that would help cure him.Raymond was a good kid and it pained her that she couldn't do anything to help. His father, Mr Dominic, didn't even acknowledge the boy and had swore never to have anything to do with him.It was a secret that Raymond was Mr Dom
Sheena returned to her bedroom in the middle of the night very oblivious to the pair of eyes watching her.She hummed her delight after spending the night in the arms of her lover. It was blissful and she wished every other night was like this.She was about to shut the door to her room when a noise from downstairs caught her attention.Curious, she headed back down to check the source of the disturbance. As she reached the foot of the stairs, Sheena let out a resonant shriek that woke everyone in the house.The scene before her was gruesome! Daisy, the last born child of Mr Dominic from his second marriage which ended in a divorce, was curled up on the floor in a pool of blood.Sheena trembled with overwhelming fear. She presumed an intruder was in the house who was responsible for Daisy being in that state and she feared the intruder might come for her too.Sheena's scream alerted everyone in the Rollins house. Jake rushed out of his room immediately he heard her screams. She had
Jake came back home the next morning. He met Sheena cuddled up on the sofa sleeping. He moved to her, leaned in and kissed her lips lightly.Sheena's sleepy eyes fluttered open and when she saw it was Jake who had kissed her, she jerked up awake, scanning the room.'We are alone.' He calmed her.She relaxed and took a look at him. He looked exhausted. She could tell he barely had any sleep last night.'How is she?' Sheena asked him, recalling the events of the previous night.'The doctor says she's stable. She needs to be kept under observation for a few days before she'll return home.' Jake answered her question, taking a seat beside her.'Did she say why she did it?' Sheena's eyes were full of concern and curiosity.'She wasn't awake when I left. She was pretty much knocked out the whole night. The doctor said she'll come around by noon. I decided to come home first before going back.''How are you?' She asked him, seeing how exhausted he looked. She yearned to comfort him.'I'm oka
Sheena stayed with Daisy after Mr Dominic and Jake had left. The doctor had said Daisy would be discharged later that day.Sheena was arranging Daisy's things when she heard a knock on the door. Surprised, she goes to open the door.'Where is my daughter?' A young woman with a stern face questioned Sheena at the same time eyeing her down.'And you are?' The question was already out of Sheena's mouth before she realized who the woman could be.'And you are the young new wife.' She spoke condescendingly to Sheena.Sheena moved to the side to let her in. She was thinking to herself, wondering why Mr Dominic divorced this woman because she was beautiful.'Mom?' Daisy's small voice called.'My baby. Oh my God! Look at you?' The woman cried at the sight of her daughter. 'I'm here dear, I'm here now.' She spoke reassuringly to Daisy as Sheena stood watching the reunion.'Diana Page.' Mr Dominic growled.Sheena had been so engrossed in watching the mother and daughter that she didn't notice
Sheena stood at their usual spot waiting for her lover. The events of the past few days had prevented them from properly seeing each other and she missed him.She moved to sit on the swing chair and she began to slowly rock herself to a rhythm.Her mind was a maze. Diana, since she moved into the Rollins house had joined the group of people out to get Sheena.Diana was always making one snide remark or the other about Sheena. She became the object of unity between Mirabel, Michelle, and Diana herself.Mirabel and Michelle had never liked Diana, but seeing that Diana hated Sheena was a good enough reason for them to become friends.Their hatred for Sheena was the only thing they had in common. Sheena couldn't understand why Diana hated her though. The woman didn't know her. It was not as if Sheena stole her husband from her. They were long divorced before Sheena came into the picture. Unless Diana was still in love with Mr Dominic which Sheena very much doubted.Sheena heaved a tired
Sheena was stunned by what she had just heard Diana say. She looked at Diana who returned her stare with cold eyes. 'You're welcome.' Diana said with a chuckle and left Sheena alone still in shock.Sheena was baffled and kept replaying her conversation with Diana in her head. Was she considering Diana's advice as an option? She didn't realize she had been unconsciously voicing her thoughts.'What are you saying? You want to kill my father?' Mary asked as she walked into the kitchen to find Sheena almost in a trance and talking to herself.Mary's voice jolted Sheena and she snapped her head to her.'Um um no, it's nothing.' Sheena stuttered.'I know what I heard and I heard you talk about killing Mr Dominic.' Mary insisted as she was so sure she had not misheard Sheena.'What did you just say?' Mirabel asked as she joined them to hear part of the conversation.Sheena and Mary became scared at hearing Mirabel's voice. Sheena was scared because Mirabel would be quick to interpret the s
