"Happy birthday, Princess." Chase walked into her room with a bouquet in his hands. Shelly's room was painted in purple and it screamed rich!Shelly Champman yawned, stretched before lazily opened her eyes and shut it back instantly."Ow!" She exclaimed, "shut the blinds."Her ever obedient boyfriend, Chase Parker, stood up and pulled the curtains down. He was now accustomed to his girlfriend's tantrums and demands.Most times he'd stare at himself in the mirror and wonder what his 6'5ft self was doing with her but he was yet to get the answer to that question."Good morning, babe," he beamed happily and joined her on her princess sized bed that was covered in designers bedspread."You're awfully happy today." She eyed him suspiciously and cozied up in his arms."It's my baby's birthday," he replied, placing a kiss on her head."Exactly, so I'm the one who's supposed to be in a good mood," she smirked.

Chase Parker was just rounding up the draft on a new business strategy he was due to submit by tomorrow when his door opened quietly.Startled, he looked up and saw..."Shelly." He never knew her as one who made a quiet entrance. She was always loud and loved the spotlight."It's me." She smiled and stepped into his office. "I came to drag you away from here.""Uhm, I've got work to do that needs to be submitted tomorrow." He replied, thumbing through some documents."Leave it, I'll just tell daddy to give it to someone else." She snapped."Shelly!" He exclaimed."Ok, I'm sorry." She groaned. "Fine. I won't mention daddy again, but let's go have fun. It's my birthday.""No, I've had enough of you always bossing me around!" He yelled. "I want to live my life the way I want it.""Ok, darling you will." She nodded, trying to avoid drama."No, Shelly." He shook his head. "You don't understand."

Chapter ThreeShelly and Kiara took their time before getting into her car. She had composed herself before leaving and gave the most radiant smile. She wasn't about to break down in front of strangers.Getting to her car, she saw Cindy leaning on it. Her eyes were red and puffy, her face had lost its radiant smile."I didn't mean to snap at you, it's not your fault," she said quietly.Cindy stared at her surprised—she hadn't expected an apology from her, but it was Shelly, after all, she'd never apologized directly."It's fine." Cindy smiled."Alright, let's go," Kiara said, already seated on the driver's seat.Shelly sat down in the passenger's seat, handing her keys to Kiara. She wasn't in the right frame of mind to drive.Once the car pulled out of the driveway, Shelly slipped into her thoughts. She wondered why

Shelly moaned in her sleep--she hugged her pillow tightly as if she was clinging unto life itself. Grrrringgg! Grinnnngggg!!Something was shrieking like an alarm clock. Tossing and turning, she located the little devil interrupting her sleep and threw it away.The ear-splitting noise it made, had her sitting up in bed. Frowning, she rubbed her eyes and yawned before seeing a blurred shape of an alarm clock on the ground.Rubbing her eyes again, she looked around and saw nothing but blurry shapes."Uhm, guys. I didn't kill you all right so why do I feel blind?" She asked no one in particular.Swinging her legs down from the bed, her barefoot touched the cold ground and she screamed."Who the bloody hell took away my slippers and why is this floor so damn cold!"Her scream attracted people because she heard shuffling of feet and her door swung open. She was barely able to make out the blurry shap

Shelly peeled her eyes open and groaned before shutting it. She tried again, but this time a hand was shielding her eyes from the sun rays."I just had the weirdest dream ever." She yawned and looked at the owner of the hand shielding her eyes and screamed."It's not a bloody dream!" She screamed bloody murder as the woman jerked back immediately."Shelly, what is the problem?" The woman who claimed to be her mom asked."You are my problem!" She shrieked."That is no way to talk to your mother, young lady." The man named Lucas also claiming to be her father snapped."Mr. Hillary, I'll handle this ok." She heard a familiar voice and almost wept with relief when Kiara walked into the room."Kiara, I'm so happy to see you." She hugged her and the couple left the room."Ok, what's going on with you?" Kiara asked.Shelly ignored her and looked at her fascinated. She still looked th

Chapter SixShelly opened her eyes, her surroundings blur, and a massive headache tormenting her as she remembered the strange incidents happening."...not stable right now to be left alone." She heard the doctor's voice as he spoke not fully hearing all nor understanding what he said. So she listened more intently."Your daughter is going to be fine, it's just stress there's nothing to worry about," the doctor was saying, "and it's too early to start conducting any test on her."Wait! What tests are they talking about? She was perfectly fine and didn't need any doctor or hospital. She just needed to confess her feelings to Chase and get the hell out of this universe—world—whatever the fuck this is.Holding the edge of

Chapter SevenAfter years of never feeling left out. Years of always being the queen who dictates how things go, Shelly was not used to this new feeling.The feeling of rejection. It felt so odd and painful. Running towards nowhere in particular, she found herself standing in front of a cliff overlooking the sunset.For once in her entire life, she noticed something that had seemed irrelevant before. She noticed how beautiful nature was. She watched as the sun sank into the horizon displaying an orange golden color up in the sky. It was so beautiful."It's mesmerizing, isn't it?" The soft velvet voice pulled her out of her reverie.Looking beside her she saw him. The one she had been waiting for stood in all his glory beside her staring—not at her but the sunset and she was supposed to answer him but she was tongue-tied!She just stood there staring at him. He looked more handsome than she re

Chapter Eight"Can I speak to you for a sec?"Shelly was on her way out after the argument she had with Kiara and Laura. She just wanted to leave this house and go somewhere quiet, not for a soul searching even though Kiara's words still rang in her eyes every second.Stopping in her tracks she turned and faced him. "Sure." She took a seat opposite him at the dining table."Shelly, what's going on with you?" Lucas placed his big palm on the back of her hand.Shelly flinched but didn't pull away. "I don't know." Her voice was barely a whisper."I know you've got a lot going on in your life right now," he began, "but don't let it consume you and the people around you.""I don't understand what you're saying to me." Shelly frowned.Lucas furrowed his brows at her trying to get a closer look. "You're hurting your mom."Shelly felt the tears fill her eyes again. "Alright, I'll stop.""Shelly, darling I do

He was so scared he didn't notice the woman that walked in with a young boy till she tapped him softly on the shoulders."Roy Champman?"He heard the soft timid voice as he turned around and saw the face of a woman that was once beautiful except for the fact that her face had a large scar that ran from her right eye through her left cheek. She was almost blinded by the scar but somehow the scar hadn't affected her eyes.With her short black curls and brown eyes, she looked oddly familiar. But when his eyes landed on the little boy of not less than seven years she was holding his eyes widened in shock.The baby was a splitting image

Chapter Eighty-EightShelly crept towards the house and stepped onto the patio. She turned the doorknob as gently as she could but found out it was locked!Mom never locks the door, she thought quietly.Shelly peered into the glass double door where the balcony was, her mom was fond of relaxing there due to her painting but when she took a closer look she saw that the balcony was empty. On a closer look, she saw signs of struggle as the chair—recliner seat—which her mom sits on to relax what turned upside down.She saw a scrap of her mom's favorite gown on the ground—she had bought the dress for her—lying close to the front door, her heart skipped a beat as she realized that maybe there was a pervert in their house.Fear gripping her heart, she stepped out of the house and went outside to see if there was any weapon she could at least arm herself with. Her stupid phone beeped and she hurriedly muted it before r

Chapter Eighty-SevenLucinda stepped into the sitting room. She wondered when Shelly would get back from her friend's place. She grabbed her phone and dialed Shelly number then when she didn't pick up, she dialed her husband's number.He picked on the second ring."Hello, beautiful," her husband's voice sounded in her ears. She smiled so happily."Hey, honey. What's the reason for your happy voice?""The fact that you called me," he replied. She could hear the grin from his voice."Awww, you're so sweet. I miss you, come back soon okay." He promised he would be back soon and she hanged up.She massaged her temples feeling a slight headache, she dialed the staff number but remembered they were asked to go on a vacation.Sighing softly, she stood up to get the pills her doctor recommended for her from her room."Oh, look who's heavy again!"A startled scream left her mouth when she whirled around and s

Chapter Eighty-SixWhat comes to your mind when you are being taken to go see your in-laws? Bonding?Well, turns out Kiara's in-laws aren't so big on bonding together with their daughter-in-law specifically Kiara."Why do you think you are the perfect woman for my son?"The sharp voice of Ed pulled Shelly from her thoughts. He was staring intently at Kiara and just as her friend opened her mouth to respond a gruff voice cut them off."I believe that question should be directed to your son!"Shelly and the others whirled around towards the direction of the voice and saw a maid scurrying away quickly while two people stepped into the sitting room.One aura was as dominating and intimidating as the other that is Kiara's father—she knew that by the smirk and smile on her face—and Adam's father had the same aura and personality, while Kiara's mom and Adam's mom were Adam's mom had a cold exterior, Kiara's mom had

Chapter Eighty-FiveOkay, Shelly was intimidated right now.If she thought Linda was scary well here comes the creator of scariness. Shelly stared at the 6ft5 man in his early fifties as he strode down the stairs, an aura of confidence and arrogance radiating off him.Oh, Kiara, let's run away already, Shelly pleaded in her inner mind."Why are you being rude to our guest, Selina?" His hard voice was heard again as he stood in front of them.Or maybe he's not that bad, Shelly thought."I..."He raised a palm in the air cutting off whatever his wife was about to say. Shelly was impressed by this."Come in, let's all have lunch together." He waved them over to the dining area while walking ahead of them.Shelly walked towards the dining admiring the beautiful gold dining seats and tables that were arranged neatly.The arrangements were very good although the dining seating arrangement looked like it wa

Chapter Eighty-FourShelly stared at Kiara, an amusing smile on her face."Why would you be scared of going to see your in-laws?"Kiara glared at her, "Don't even try and tease me right now I'm not in that mood."Shelly groaned, "Why do I have to be the one to come with you I'm tired of meeting parents!"Kiara smirked, "Oh no that's not good! My parents are on the way so you will also meet them.""Mommy, isn't that bullying?"The tiny voice of Cassie at the doorway snapped Kiara out of her maniacally laughter."Bullying? Why would you say that?" She asked her daughter with a small smile trying to look innocent."Well, you told me that forcing someone to do something they don't want to do is bullying," she replied with a frown."Oh, but I'm not forcing your aunty to do anything," Kiara insisted.Cassie shook her head, "Nope, ask aunty Shelly nicely I'm sure she would go with you."Kiara

Chapter Eighty-ThreeAdam beamed happily as he stood on Kiara's porch. He rang the doorbell once waiting excitedly and nervous. He counted to ten but still, there was no response.Then as he was about to ring the doorbell again, the door swung open with full force and he saw Shelly glaring at him."Shelly?" He called not bothering to hide the surprise evident in his voice."You!" She jabbed a finger on his chest."Ow!" He winced slightly, "What have I done?"She narrowed her eyes to slits as she continued glaring at him, "If you hurt Kiara you won't leave this place alive!"Wait, what?!"Thank you for the warm welcome, may I come in now?" His voice was dripping with sarcasm as he flashed her a wide smile.She rolled her eyes then made a "hmmph" sound before opening the door wider for him to come in."Kiara, Adam is here!" She hollered before sitting down on the sofa her eyes still on him.He t
