Chapter Forty Four
Shelly was accustomed to waking up in a bed that was hard. She had spent the latter part of her life__er...sub consciousness on a bed that wasn't so nice you'd think she wouldn't notice the difference if her bed was changed.
Shelly knew from the moment she stretched herself and took a deep long breath that she wasn't in the hospital again rather she was in a different place.
Opening her eyes there was no sun rays peeking in through the blinds. She looked around the new room and a smile broke out on her lips.
She was absolutely sure that Kiara decorated her room again. She had had these conversation with her before she had the accident about changing the room wall paint and the interior design. She wanted something that looked simple but not necessarily normal. The design in her room was that of pure perfection.
A painting of a landscape and two couple in love. The red paint with the combination of green and blue gav
Chapter Forty FiveNo freaking way!In the entire world it just had to be him that was her personal doctor. But what was the odds of that?Shelly recovered from her shock when Kiara spoke up in a perky voice. "Come in and check her. My guess is she's fine." She laughed and he joined her too.Her mind was still reeling from the fact that he was her doctor. Does he even know how to do his job well?Freaking motorcycle badass Logan was my doctor!, Shelly exclaimed inwardly.She watched as he advanced towards her and flashed her a smile. Do you recognize me? She longed to ask him but when she looked around the room, they were all staring at her.Wait, she had said that out loud."I thought it was only one single syllable she could say?" Cindy asked surprised.Kiara gave her a pointed stare. "Anything you wanna share with us?"Shelly swallowed hard. She had successfully managed to make her friends and doc
Chapter Forty SixFinally alone at last! Shelly thought as she stepped wobbly into her father's study and sat down, huffing on the seat.She had cried her eye out after her mom had left and decided to get up and stop being an invalid. So that's why she had walked from her room to here.She grabbed a folder and saw some documents she couldn't really understand. Her head still ached her whenever she was stressed.Squinting her eyes she focused on the documents and what she saw left her in shock.~~~~*Roy Champman rushed into his house, his heart pounding nervously and his head spinning. He couldn't think straight. Where exactly was she? Who took her away from him?"Where is she?" He asked his workers.They all bowed their heads down avoiding his eyes."Roy, we couldn't find her." He whirled around just in time to see Kiara rushing towards him, panic in her eyes."Where was
Chapter Forty Seven"This is the life, BITCHES!!!"Kiara and Shelly stood at a safe distance staring at Cindy. Yeah, it's Cindy that's hollering and trying to bring the entire house down."I just gave her one shot of tequila," Kiara said amused.Shelly eyed her suspiciously, "You and I both know that you mixed her drink."Kiara laughed. "Yeah, yeah. With a touch of whiskey and a little secret I ain't gonna share." With a wink she strutted off to the balcony throwing it open, bringing out her phone and taking a couple of selfies.Shelly ignored her and sat down on the bed as the music in the background played softly, a soft song was playing in the background. The song reminded her of when she spent her last day in her virtual world__now it wasn't a universe again, it was the movie playing tricks on her unconscious mind.The more she thought about it, the more she realized that she missed that world. She missed her boyfriend__or rather virtual boyfriend. Those memories are something she
Chapter Forty Eight"I still don't get it. Why? Why all of a sudden she wants to be part of our lives?!" Shelly asked for the tenth time today. She was in her room, staring at the blank screen of her television and imagining she was talking to her mom there."I mean who does that? You stay away for a long time then suddenly you're back. Things aren't been done that way."Kiara sighed. She knew all these ratings was giving her a headache and she didn't want that. She looked around the room wondering where Cindy had run off to. She had said she was being influenced negatively by them so she needed to get away from them.The resounding knock on the door interrupted them both from their thoughts."Come in." They both said in unison.The door creaked open and Adam poked his head in. "Am I interrupting something, ladies?"Shelly and Kiara whipped their head towards the sound of his voice and a slow predatory smile made it way up to Kiara's lips, "Actually doctor, you're just in time.""Oh, i
Chapter Forty Nine"I leave you both for five minutes and suddenly you're thirty minutes away from the house?!""Please stuff something in her mouth, I have a headache." Shelly mumbled stepping into her room with Cindy on her heels while Kiara took the rear end."I'm not going to shut up, Shelly!" Cindy exclaimed, "You look like you're about to pass out!!"Kiara rolled her eyes. "Maybe if you shut up she'd be able to rest."Shelly flopped down on her bed feeling very exhausted. That hallucinating? Whatever it was has left her feeling very tired."Are you sure you can go with us?" Kiara asked worriedly."Of course I can," Shelly replied with a small smile."You could stay back if you're unable to go?" Cindy suggested."No way, guys I'm not missing this." She said excitedly, "We still have eight hours before it will be time for the party.""Alright, how do we kill time 'cause we're going shopping in th
Chapter Fifty"Strut, smile, pose!"Shelly rolled her eyes as Kiara stepped out of the car wiggling her hips and strutting into the house."Hurry up, Kiara I'm very hungry," Shelly grumbled stepping into the sitting room."Nah, I'm cat walking on the runway. It's the red carpet show and I'm gonna have so much fun!"Shelly ignored her and headed straight to the kitchen. She had every intention of making her food herself. Basking into the warm scent of the delicious aroma emitting from the kitchen, Shelly settled down to make her delicious pancakes."Shelly in the kitchen making pancakes," Cindy said in a sing song voice as she entered the kitchen smiling."Get the pan for me, Cindy." Shelly ordered, focusing o mixing her flour and other ingredients to taste.~~~~*Settling down to a wonderful meal of pancakes, jam and warm milk Shelly gobbled her food down."Hurry up, Shell
Chapter Fifty One"Don't say anything I just wanna get drunk tonight."Kiara and Cindy stared at their friend as she stepped out of the house, entering into her black range rover Jeep."Uhm, Shelly go to the back seat ok I'm driving." Kiara suggested.Handing her the car key, Shelly headed to the back seat as she felt a sense of deju và. This was just like last time when they crashed. Could this be a good idea? What if they crash on the way again, there's a possibility of that.Her heart was racing as Kiara started the car. A quick glance at their excited faces including Cindy, made all her fears disappear.She was home now and she wasn't going anywhere.The car pulled out of the driveway and soon they were speeding along the road blasting music from their car, singing along together and laughing."I would really like to see the look on his face when he sees us there," Kiara said in her overly excited voice
Chapter Fifty TwoAdam stared directly at them. The tension in the atmosphere was thick and the smile plastered on his face was a fake one."Yes, this is my girlfriend," he was saying to a young blonde standing in front of them.Shelly stifled her chuckle as Kiara glared at her. She couldn't blame her for enjoying herself immensely in this weird game.The beautiful blonde standing in front of them--for she was indeed beautiful with her flawless oval face, her button nose, and her plump full lips. She was dressed in a cute black leather skirt with a crop white top and a long black leather jacket matched with her black heeled boots and a black handbag.Her face was a mask of pure anger as she stared at Kiara with a mixture of hatred and murder."You have a new girlfriend?" She asked in a sweet tone, gritting her teeth.Shelly stared at Adam again and smiled. He looked confident with the way he was staring at Kiara. They ha

Chapter NinetyShelly chuckled as her mom stepped out of the dressing room."How do I look, Shelly?"Kiara sniggered and Cindy turned away while Shelly scratched her head awkwardly.It's been two weeks since the fiasco with her late uncle—God bless his soul as he rots in hell— her mom had recovered thankfully nothing happened to the baby and she had gotten better from the knife wound, Cara and her son had left the States to Paris.Christmas was tomorrow and it was also her parents' wedding so they were doing some last minute shopping and preparations that included dressing testing at the last minute for her mom had gotten so round and fat it was getting difficult to find the wedding dress that will be a good fit for her.So currently, her mom was standing and twirling around in front of a mirror as she admired herself in the half-cut white dress that protruded her stomach in a very visible way that made it seem like
Chapter Eighty-NineRoy Champman paced up and down in the police station waiting to make a statement and get a police officer to take back to his house so whoever it was that attacked his wife could be arrested.He couldn't help but be scared and think about what could have possibly happened to her. 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
