As much as Hailey loved Ryan as a child, she hadn’t expected the feeling to grow with her. Her whole life, she had grown up working on projects and planning for a bright future. Never had she thought she would see her first love, and feel the overwhelming feeling of love again. It was something she never imagined or wanted.

“Why are you asking that?” Hailey asked her mum when her mum asked the million dollars questions.

“You need to be honest with me, Hailey,” Naya said with a soft tone. “I know you loved Ryan as a child. I could see it in your eyes obviously. But do you still love him now? How does he make you feel presently?”

“Nothing,” Hailey said quickly as she walked to her wardrobe to get her pajamas. “Ryan doesn’t make me feel anything. My heart only beats for Ferdinand and that is it.”

Her mother sighed.

“The reason why I am asking you this is because I am worried for you,” her mother admitted. “You were really hurt when you thought Ryan died. The mention of him brought t

    The fight wasn’t something Hailey expected that hot afternoon. It was an embarrassing sight to the point she had wished that the floor could swallow her. What the heck was she seeing? Two men fighting over her?! What the hell was that?! That was her biggest nightmare and she hated it so much. She forced herself to stand ignoring the pain on her toe and cried in pain as the place hurt a lot. Ferdinand was more focused on his violence that he hadn’t heard her soft voice whimper in pain. Though each step she took sent a sharp pain in her joint, she just didn’t care anymore. She gathered all the strength she could and hurried to them. “Stop it!” She screamed at them, but Ferdinand wouldn’t stop hitting Ryan. Ryan did not fight back. He tried every attempt to explain to Ferdinand what happened, not Ferdinand wasn’t listening. Ferdinand was more of a fist than talk. “Ferdinand stop it!” Hailey couldn’t take it anymore. She drew Ferdinand away from Ryan and slapped him hard on the cheek. “

    Ferdinand was all Hailey wanted in a man. He was her dream prince and the feelings she had for him was unspeakable. But what she couldn’t understand was why he played with her emotions all the time? She always felt victimized and this severely affected her mental health. Naya thought her relationship was perfect and Brett was too focused on his job to pay attention. Hailey couldn’t tell how to start explaining to Naya that Ferdinand was not a straightforward guy and sometimes she doubted whether their relationship would work or not. She had learned to endure things for long, but Ryan was the threshold. It was as if Ferdinand had been hiding his insecurities for so long and couldn’t hold back anymore. What could she do to make him understand that she wanted only him? How could she convince him not to be insecure anymore, but he should give her a chance to be his best lady?That night, Hailey couldn’t sleep. She gazed at her phone, waiting for Ferdinand’s mother to call and tell her th

    Hailey waited patiently for Ferdinand’s call, but got nothing. This made her slowly lose hope. What more could she do? She has apologized to him multiple times and sent voice notes, but he wasn’t paying attention to her. He wasn’t opening her messages talk of answering them. This got her heart overwhelmed. “I told Ryan not to bother,” she said, losing all hope. “Why does he need to bother himself this much? This is my fight with Ferdinand. He needs to stay out of it.” Hailey sighed and ran her hand down her hair. As she slowly lost hope and slowly dived into depression, Naya announced a news she’d expected. “Ferdinand’s family are coming tomorrow. Since the wedding is next week, they will love to clarify something,” Naya told her with her arm crossed. Hailey nodded. “Ferdinand must have told them he isn’t interested anymore,” Hailey said with a sad tone. “I guess they are coming here to cancel the wedding in a friendly way.” Naya sighed and carressed her hair. “Dear Hailey,” Nay

    “I cannot believe it worked,” Hailey said with enthusiasm when Naya called her to the kitchen to help her serve cookies. “I thought Ryan would never convince Ferdinand. I know my fiancé. He never listens.” Naya opened the oven to inspect the new batches of hot cookies. “Are you happy with this marriage?” Naya asked her the same question a billion times. “Mum, you are getting really annoying now,” Hailey hissed. “Can’t you see the smile on my face? Of course I am happy. I have been with Ferdinand for six years. I would almost die if he didn't marry me. I have been dreaming of my future with him for six years.” “Is this about the duration of time?” Naya asked Hailey in disappointment. “That shouldn’t be a problem because you are still young. You can still back away. What if he is not the right one for you? What if you are ignoring the right one for you? What if you are focusing on the closed door for too long and aren’t noticing the opened door?” Hailey groaned. “Mum, wh

    Hailey knew Naya had a brief discussion with Ryan, but she couldn’t tell what they discussed. She had tried eavesdropping on their conversation until being stared down by her twin siblings who thought she was becoming nosy. “You didn’t see anything,” Hailey told them, trying to avoid acting suspicious. “Give us something in exchange for the silence,” Partrick stretched out his arm with a smirk. Hailey was shocked by the audacity.“What?!” She exclaimed.“Do not worry,” Patricia loved her brother’s strategy. “They do it a lot in movies.”Hailey frowned. She dipped her hands into her pocket and took out a dollar. At least a dollar was like gold to the 9 year olds. “I will tell mum to stop making you watch TV,” Hailey threatened as she slipped it in their hands. “A dollar is too small,” Patrick frowned. “I agree with Patrick. A dollar can’t buy anything great these days,” Patricia folded her arms. Hailey was completely speechless. “You guys are just children. What do you know abou

    Hailey arrived at the restaurant for the double date. It was an expensive 5 star restaurant which she knew Ferdinand adored a lot. No matter how furious that guy was, she was certain that he wouldn’t create a scene in such a classy restaurant. He was that egoistic not to embarrass himself before multi-millionaires who were probably more successful than himself. She took a deep breath and walked in. Her long silver gown with off shoulders dragged behind her as if she was in some kind of classy event. Who told her to over dress you may ask. Even she herself had no answer to that question. She walked in, smiling at the guard at the door. “You are looking very beautiful, Madame. Who are you looking for?” He asked in a British tone. “I am looking for Mr Ferdinand Sucre,” she said. “I am his fiancée. We have a seat reservation.” The guard looked at his tablet to scroll through his list of reserved customers. “That’s right. He has already been locked in. Please follow me. Let me take yo

    The slap was so loud that everyone in the restaurant turned towards their direction to find out what was happening. This was Ferdinand’s greatest fear. His shocked look turned to anger as he looked round at the inquisitive faces. “Only God knows how long I have endured you enough,” Hailey said furiously. “You have always messed with my head and looked down on me and I am just tired of it! I am damn tired of it! I am tired of trying, I am tired of taking the blame, I am tired of looking stupid trying to please you! I am tired of defending you! I am tired of the temporary happiness you show me which leads to more pain than good! I am tired of your existence in my life! I am even tired of your disgusting smelling face and your good for nothing wealth!” Ferdinand was confused since he has never heard Hailey speak like that to him before. He’d always seen her as meek and soft spoken, but never that brave and confident. “Don’t you dare talk to me like like….” He tried grabbing her, but s

    Ryan and Lora stood up at the sight of Hailey and hugged her in rounds. Hailey knew she didn't know Lora well yet, but her morals couldn’t help with the aspect of courtesy. No matter how distant she felt towards the lady, she knew she’s got to greet her.“You look so nice,” Lora admired her orange shirt and blue Jean. In fact, she had only dressed casually. Hailey could swear that there was nothing special at all about her outfit. “Thanks,” Hailey thanked her anyway and signaled her mother to join them. “Lora, this is my mother, Naya. Mum, Lora,” Hailey introduced. Naya offered Lora a wave and hurried in to get the guests some chips. As soon as Naya was done, Hailey sat down.“Don’t mind my mum,” Hailey said, running her hand down her hair. “She always does that. She can’t attend to a visitor without offering them her chips.”“I guess most mothers are like that. My own mum was so obsessed with the cookies,” Ryan said with a laugh. Hailey recalled and smiled. “I remember those times

    Brett sat in the sitting room feeling uncomfortable by the silence of the house. But his wife made her choice, he had to accept it. Hailey came by that morning, giving him a stone look. She silently helped her mum in carrying her things even though she knew in her mind that she had a lot to say. “Will you be able to care for the children by yourself?” Hailey asked her mum as she walked her to the car.“I will be fine, my love,” Naya laughed. I am more gallant than you think.” “I don’t think this is fair on dad’s part?” Hailey gazed back at Brett who watched from the door. “It was mutual agreement between me and your father. We agreed that I leave this nonsense…” “No! It was your choice,” Brett defended. “I don't know why you cannot trust me on this. I have tried so hard to comply with you. I have tried hard to explain all this to you…” “Enough daddy!” Hailey lashed, unable to control her temper anymore. “Just stop! You aren’t helping this matter.”“You ought to be supporting me h

    Herald made up his mind to lead Brett. He wasn’t sure what sort of fool Brett was, or why Brett would trust him. But it wasn’t his own business anymore. He would throw Brett off and he would do it in such a way that the guy would never notice. He accepts the gun from Brett's hands trying to maintain an innocent stare. “I will help you,” he said with a sincere gaze. “That’s very good,” Brett laughed. “I knew I could trust you. I had no clue who else I could call. You are the only one that came to my mind, unfortunately.”Herald let out a weak chuckle. Brett focused on one of his helpers and ordered her to get Herald some wine. “Would you like some wine?” Brett asked with a smirk. “Sure, why not,” Herald eyes brightened due to the thought of wine. “This is a moment to celebrate! We are gonna work together!” Brett smiled and got him the wine. Brett took the glass of wine from him and they both had a toast. As he gulped down his whole cup, Brett felt reluctant to drink his.“I can’t

    When Herald got the invite from Brett, he knew all wasn’t good. Unfortunately, Brett wasn’t dumb. Brett knew who he suspected, and was fond of getting into the matter of things. Herald couldn’t relax in his home. His eyes kept moving to his phone hoping for feedback concerning his flight. “Sorry, all flights have been closed due to the weather,” one of the agents informed him. Gerald frowned. “So you're telling me that I can’t get an emergency flight or what?!” He sounded harsh. His house girl gazed at him from the dining table she cleaned. She’s never seen him so angry before. In fact, his sudden outburst was rare. Herald was a cheerful dude. He was never angry… like ever. Herald’s phone rang again. It was Brett trying to remind him to visit. Gerald shivered. “It’s not my damn fault,” he quivered. “Do not blame me for this…please.” The house girl stared at him again. This time, he was mumbling words to himself and that was absurd. “Sir, are you fine?” She asked. “You are trembl

    Herald couldn’t hide his confusion due to what happened. He knew he did as his father ordered, but what he least expected was the explosion which shook the earth. He hurriedly got into his car to drive Brett’s home. He needed to check up on the family and confirm how they were doing. He needed to know what the police knew. As he drew closer to the location, his phone rang, throwing him slightly off guard. It was his father, feeling proud of what he had done. “Keep this up,” his father said to him. “You have done very well.”“Dad, what the hell are you talking about? The Hazards just faced a huge disaster and…”His father began to laugh heartily. This made him confused for a moment until he eventually realized what was going on. “Dad, did you do this?” He asked in confusion.“I told you that I will always repay evil for evil,” the man wasn’t remorseful at all. Herald couldn’t believe his father would do such a thing. I mean, he knew how cruel his father was, but that amount of wicked

    The Mafia Lord heard of the approaching wedding and frowned as he gazed at the E-invitation card with a frown. Of course he hadn’t been invited. But Brett was stupid enough to keep his enemies closer. Unfortunately, one of Brett’s office colleagues got invited. And that was his son, Herald. The Mafia Lord kept Herald away from the mafia business for a long time, seeing him as a golden child. There was no way he wanted his favorite to get into trouble. It seems that won’t last for long. As long as Brett worked with his son, and his son Herald was an easy way to get across to Brett, he had no issue with that. Things seem to fall in place…right? If only the Mafia Lord was in the same country with Brett to watch him and his family die slowly. The thought was really eating him slowly. Well, since his son was working with Brett, things should be easier. “I see you are friends with Mr Brett Hazard,” the Mafia Lord said to his son over a phone call. “You never told me you were close to th

    Brett stepped out of his car in his well ironed suit. The ceremony was about to start and everyone ran helter skelter to see what pending tasks were left. Brett wasn’t bothered. He seemed a bit at ease for a new groom, and kept his hands tucked in his pocket maintaining his composure.“The ceremony is about to start. Do you know where your wife is yet?” His mother asked as she cuddled Damian who was asleep on her shoulder. “She will be here soon,” Brett said with a smile. “Let her take her time.”“Are you serious?” His mother looked unimpressed. “We have a freaking time limit here! You can’t just tell us to be patient with the wedding. The priest is already here.”“Trust me. Hailey knows what she is doing,” Brett said to his mother. “You spoil that woman a lot,” his mother hissed before walking out. When she left, Brett shut his eyes and took a deep breath. It was still difficult to believe it was the damn D day. If someone told him, he would never believe it. “Congrats man!” A gro

    Hailey hurried up the stairs in her pajamas carrying a bouquet as the rest of the servants raced behind her.“Please tell me the band is here,” Hailey pleaded as she walked down the well lit hallway. The house was busy that weekend and everyone couldn’t hold back from the noise. There was a huge celebration happening at the Hazards apparently and everyone had their eyes on Hailey. “Why aren’t you ready yet?” Zara asked in shock as she walked out Hailey’s room with a jewelry box. “Do not be upset, I am just busy,” Hailey waved her off. “There is so much going on and we have to make this day a success.” “You need to calm down,” Zara calmed her down. “The marriage will happen anyway. Just calm down.”“No, I can't calm down. The band isn’t at the venue yet. The meals are still pending. What do you want me to do? Everything is a total mess,” Hailey nagged. “Hailey, you cannot get things done with a panicked mood,” Zara rolled her eyes. “You need to think clearly if you wish to plan som

    Few months later, as Naya got Damian ready for daycare, she heard a loud scream from the highway and hurried to look. It was poor Hailey, getting scared for no reason at all…or maybe there was a reason. “What’s wrong?” Naya asked. “Relax, dear.”“Someone has kidnapped Ryan!” Naya cried. “What?!” Naya was shocked. “Why?! How?!” “I don’t know. He asked me to come to this address, we need to go,” Hailey showed her an address on her phone. It was a remote location Naya didn’t have faith in. “Let us go with the police. I do not trust this place,” Naya informed her with a doubtful stare. “No, mum, you do not understand. They will hurt him,” Hailey cried. “We have no other choice,” Naya advised her. “We need to involve the police, if not, they will do something to us.” Hailey couldn’t argue with her mum. In a few minutes, they were on their way to the location with the police. It was an abandoned location with an odd looking warehouse which hadn't been used in years. “Won’t you guys

    Later that night, Naya had submerged her feet in the swimming pool watching the full moon. Brett joined her with two glasses of wine. They cheered and took sips. “Why does the air feel different?” He asked Naya who couldn’t agree more. “We are at a new era in our lives. A live where all our enemies have been put in their place,” Naya told him and took another sip of the drink. “Funny enough, we do not have to do anything. It just falls into place, you know,” Brett boasted. “I love when things fall on our laps. Damn! Let them all be coming, and let’s be showing them where they belong. It feels good to be evil,” Naya smirked. “Your soft heart is incapable of white, unfortunately,” Brett mocked and took the drink from her. He dropped it on the tiles beside the pool and jumped in. “Come on!” He called her out. “Let’s have fun in the pool.” Naya nodded and got in carefully. She swam towards him and poured a handful of water at him, which he retaliated. They swam around like childre
