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
Sheena felt the world was resting on her young shoulders. She had just received news that her father had taken ill.The incident of losing his house was too much for him. Elena sounded very worried over the phone when she called Sheena. Elena had said it looked serious and she was scared.Sheena wanted to be there with her father. If she was going to lose her father, then she wanted to be there with him during his last moments.But she couldn't leave the Rollins house. She couldn't go see her father. Mr. Dominic had forbidden her from stepping out of his house. This restriction was mainly to stop her from going to her father.Mr Dominic was trying to be careful. He was married to the daughter of a man whom he had cheated. Anything could happen and he was taking measures to avoid any eventualities.Now, Sheena sat in the living room of the Rollins house, looking wishfully at the front door with tears in her eyes and pain in her heart.'Thought of how to do it yet?'Sheena turned to whe
Jake had just ended his meeting with Damian. He shook his head at himself as he exited the office building.He had to admit that Mr Dominic was a smart man. When Jake had refused to take up his offer of being a part of his company, his father had come to him seeking the services of his tech company.Mr Dominic proposed such a good deal that Jake's business mind ignored whatever relationship feud they had going.Jake was leaving when he met Michelle walking in. Michelle had never liked Jake, so she gave him a dirty eye down and hissed at him before passing him. Jake was used to the resentment she had towards him and he ignored her.'What did he want?' Michelle asked Damian as she walked into his office.'Business.' Damian curtly responded. His tone was weighty with irritation.Michelle doesn't pick up on his unwelcoming demeanor and probes further.'What kind of business could you have with that bastard?' She asked and took a seat opposite his desk. She settled in comfortably and began
