***********

Six years later.

The years have passed like a day and days like hours and hours like minutes and her son is all grown up now, a very mischievous little man. Aileen was on her way to pick him up from school, she received a call that he got into a fight again. She had never thought raising a child was hard until when she started to raise her own, that little man is very stubborn and mischievous like a certain someone from the past. Suddenly her phone rang, she picked it up and put it on speaker since she was driving "Hello, who is this?" It was an unknown number. "Hello, I'm an agent from Capital A gaming company, excuse me, am I talking to Mrs Fletchers?" Said the man over the phone, making her body tense.

She applied for an interview with that company a month ago. She had already given up after waiting for a month with no reply from them, she had many reasons and the main one is because she never wanted to return to the USA again. Their silence just made her more confident

    **************That day Aileen returned home with her son with pure happiness, the little boy really had fun with his mother. She took her to an amusement park after stopping by for candy and thankfully Leelan was finally back to his cheerful self. She named him Leelan because she couldn't really think of another name for his son, she also kinda wanted to remember that name forever even though it brings her pain whenever she recalls her past, the name was also tattered on her hand anyway and there are some good memories with it. She tried to forget him but then Leelan was a copy of his father, he hasn't taken anything after her not looks nor behavior, Alan has really ruined her son. "Granny! Granny! Leelan is back!"

  • Let's Start Over    Trip to USA

    Aileen's POV Amongst the three of us the only one who was excited about the trip was my son, Leelan was very happy that we were moving from South Africa and it is mainly because he wouldn't have to go back to the school that he hated so much. We finalized the transportation of my father at the airport and we finally boarded the plane to the USA. We used to have our own private jet and bodyguards but since my father's health deteriorated, they needed to be paid and if we had given them our savings to guard us then we would've gone broke. Me and my mom decided that we didn't need bodyguards anymore, so we made a decision to sell the private jet and pay the bodyguards for breaching the contract they signed to guard us for three years, luckily the money was more than enough for the four of them and we're still in touch with them because we once lived like one big family. My dad was under the watch of a nurse and a doctor, the three of us were seated just a few inches away from him in

    "What Leelan? Did you say something?" Said his grandmother who could see him in the living room, she placed down the phone quickly. "Nope! The game is so annoying granny" he said pouting, "Uh, you and your games, go and sleep already" she said pointing her finger to the room. "Uh uh…no! I'm waiting for you" he protested causing his grandma to shake her head and carried on with her task in hand. Leelan made sure his grandma wasn't looking at him before picking up the phone and looked at the picture again, that man looks just like him and what made him even more convinced was the tattoo on his wrist. That tattoo was his name and even his mother has it too, so could that good looking man seriously be his father? But why wasn't he with them? Why did he leave them?. No matter how much he asks her mother about her father, she would make up some reasons for him, like 'He is not a good man so I left him or your mother is here with you, you don't need your father' and many more. But he reall

    The next day Aileen washed her son and clothed him before he sent him out of the room so she could prepare herself as well, she wore a formal dress for her first day at work. Sharon had already cooked breakfast for them, little boy was drinking his milkshake. He placed down the glass upon seeing his mother approaching the dining room. He made a dramatic gasp "You look beautiful mama" Aileen pulled a chair, she kissed his both cheeks before sitting down "Thank you honey". Her boy was so good at making her smile, he is just perfect if you put aside his stubborn side. "Good morning mom" she then said, Sharon served her plate and then back hugged her daughter. Her little girl has grown up so much, she had to mature and become a woman so early and no matter what she deserved getting that job, she deserves every good thing in this world. "Morning my dear, good luck for today, I just want you to know that I'm very proud of you" she said, still hugging her. "Mommy are you crying?" Asked Lee

    Two days passed by, and she had already admitted her son to the elementary school. The young man said he loved his new school. Aileen was relieved that maybe her son wouldn't be causing any problems here since he personally said he prefers it here compared to the former one in South Africa. She came early at work today, she was informed that her boss would be returning from his business trip. Today too was the day her father was going to meet up with the doctor. She really wanted to be there for her mother but then work made it impossible, her mother would be going alone. For the past three days she had met with a lot of people who were now her fellow employees, some tried to befriend her while some were looking at her as if she had taken their man from them. She hadn't even begun to use the office cafeteria yet because she wanted to observe the environment of the office first before roaming around. It was a big 40 story building and she was working on the skyscraper floor.She was g

  • Let's Start Over    The reality

    Aileen's POVI've never known of being deadly shocked until today, the man that I've run away from was actually the one who hired me, he was my boss? He…was? Alan was sitting before me, I couldn't believe it. I was not prepared for this, no…even if I was given a chance to prepare myself before meeting up with him then I'd still react the same way or worse. I didn't know what to do or what to say, all my mind was telling me at that moment was to run away, fast. I acted up as my mind told me to and ran from him, again. I don't know why but his presence was kinda scary to me, I was scared of him when he was the one who wronged me. Being devastated was an understatement for what I was actually feeling.I was glad that the taxi appeared the moment I ran out of the building as if it was ordered to, I hailed it and told the driver to go ahead, not even knowing where I wanted to go at the moment. I sobbed silently on the backseat of the taxi, thinking of hundreds of things at the same time, t

  • Let's Start Over    Wrecked emotions

    Alan's POV I almost went crazy for love if it weren't for my parents who were taking runs and turns making sure I goes back to normal, I almost lost myself in the way to make her understand that whatever happened wasn't my fault, but she was heartless to me, she didn't even want to see my face let alone listening to me proving myself a victim before her.Yes she was heartless, very heartless to even consider what we had in the past before judging and abandoning me for good. She changed me or should I say the pain that she inflicted in me just because of one misunderstanding that could've been solved, changed me. And just like her, I too slowly….slowly and gradually became heartless.I have tried my level best to look for her with no avail and I finally gave up, just like how she gave up on me….I gave on her and I have never thought that I'll be meeting up with her ever again, I thought that would actually be better because my other half wants nothing but to make her taste the same pa

  • Let's Start Over    Resigning to fate

    Like the last day, Aileen woke up and prepared herself for work. She was weirdly slow today, wishing that she didn't have to go back to that office again because going there would cause her nothing but pain, but then she would rather stay than deal with the law. Leelan won't be going to school today, his teacher gave him a day off so he could rest but he was fine now thankfully, he would be staying with his grandma for the day and she would have to deal with his bossy father.Her lips twitched just by the thought of him, his attitude yesterday made her so angry, he was never like that, he never looked down on anybody before. She then corrected herself, years have passed and if she has changed so even he must've changed too. He is a CEO of a big company now so the change speaks for itself starting from there. Her mother informed her that Leelan's grandfather would be undergoing some tests, the doctor wanted to observe him for a couple of days before engaging with the operation, at leas

    That day, the two went to pick up the boy only to find out that he was already picked up by his aunt. Shocked, they started to make a few calls only to find out that it was no other but Rue. She picked the boy and took her to Aileen’s house already, left with no choice Alan gave her a ride there. They found her very engrossed in a conversation with Sharon that it left them wondering what they were talking about by the convenient store. Alan stopped the car and made a honk to call for them. Not too shocked they both got in his car, heading to the house. The little boy was happy to see his parents again. “I want you to inform me next time if you are planning to take my son anywhere, Rue. People are messy out there, you can't keep us worried all the time” complained Alan after seeing off the family. “Shut it already, he is my nephew. Stop overreacting, dad!” she brushed him off. “I fucking mean it Rue. And what the hell were you talking to Sharon about? You know that I don't trust you, d

    “Will you calm down first, little brother?. It wasn't me who made this decision, it was our dear father and mother, you should lash out at them and not me, do you get it?” siad Rue, she wasn't going to tell him what the whole family was up to, never. He should just sit back and let them take care of his future now because he seemed too confused to even date someone like Tiffany. “Not even you Rue, please! He is my son, don't you understand? Do you people know how much danger you have gotten my son and his mother into? Do you know how many enemies I've made out there?” He was very angry that he wasn't informed about the matter that concerned his own son's life. He should've been informed about it, he would've made preparations about it. There was media to deal with, there were the board members to inform and secure the formalities about their relationship to them and there is a damn society who are always ready to pick and judge things even without knowing anything about it.

    “Here, he sent me this text this evening. Read it” he lost the phone to her parents and then they passed it over to Neil and Kylie. “Oh my god, that poor boy,” said their mother. “Right. How could I respond when my six years old nephew asks me such a question? I was speechless and didn't even know how to explain things to that smart little guy. Thus why this meeting is important” explained Rue.“He literally asked why his parents aren't living together like the rest of the children at school. He probably talked to classmates about their families and was very disturbed to realize that his parents are the only ones who aren't living together. This isn't good for his poor little mind” she added. “He is just a young boy who deserves more than to be raised by both of them.” she promised to get to the bottom of this, it really disturbed her when the boy told her about it.“So what do you suggest we do?” Asked Neil. “There is only one way, we have to get them back together so that they can

    Leelan was happy to have his daddy over, they played a little before taking him to sleep, the two of them did. When he came out he spotted Sharon with two cups of coffee “Here, it's been a while, have a seat” she said. Aileen was still tucking her son well and making sure he didn't wake up because he couldn't feel her warmth. Alan sat down, gripping the cup, not even knowing how to look at her. “How is everything? I am sorry for your loss” He asked. “Thank you, things are going well. How is your family doing?” Sharon noticed how uncomfortable the man was. “They are doing well, they send their condolences actually” he answered. Sharon got up “Come here” she said. Alan was dumbfounded but he too stood up. Sharon hugged him, “I am sorry for everything that has happened to you my dear,” awestruck by what just happened, the man stood still, letting the woman embrace him. His eyebrows knitted together, it took all in him not to shatter right there and cry like a baby. He never knew that th

    Aileen glared at him, she then scoffed “Why do you care who I talk to?” She asked. “I want to know,” he demanded. “And who the hell are you to say that? Wait a minute, are you jealous?” She was surprised, getting angry little by little at their current conversation. “I asked who were you texting, Aileen?” He somehow wanted to know at all cost, even if it was not his place to know. “Wow! This is very funny now.” Aileen shook her head with laughter. “I don't freaking ask a thing about you and your Tiffany! Why are you so curious about my life? What happened to not interfere with our personal lives?” she paused watching him stare at her. “Does she even know that you have a son with me?” She asked the most important question, it was bugging her this whole time. “That's between me and Tiffany” he responded, fuming. “Right! Then this conversation is fucking over!” She just doesn't understand him at all. What was wrong with this man?.“It is not until I say so” he uttered and then snatched t

  • Let's Start Over    The lifesaver

    The next morning, they took the boy to school as usual before heading to the office. The car parked at the parking lot, where other employees were also parking their cars. “Don't you think coming to work together like this might cause unnecessary drama for both of us? I should've taken a taxi or an Uber.” she aired her worries. People have already begun to look at her differently since the day she was told to give her opinions on the meeting last time. It was an important project, she had to be an important person to their boss to give her opinions like that and they were actually executed. People have started to think of it that way, forgetting that she was also an employee who had the right to do so just like them. What are these people going to say the moment they find out that the two of them actually had a thing in the past and the fruit of it is their little boy?. Her head was aching at that thought. “Oh, should I take you back then so you can call your Uber?” He teased, placin

  • Let's Start Over    Mother's duty

    In the evening they had to leave and head back to Alan's house. They talked about it and thought of spending two nights at his house every week, starting with this week. Aileen had no argument for this since she would be going along with her son or else she would be going crazy with uneasiness of being far from her son, even for two nights. Leelan received a lot of gifts when she left his grandparent's house, Aileen wondered when did they get the time to prepare for everything. But then she answered herself, it was a rich people thing to get things done with only a snap, she witnessed a lot already from working with Alan for over half a year now. What gave her a headache was where were they going to keep all of those gifts at. Because those things were definitely not going to her house, uh uh it's not happening ….her house would be flooding with toys at this rate.When they arrived at his house, all the boy was talking about was their visit to his grandparents as if they weren't toget

  • Let's Start Over    Not only my fault

    “You did a great job raising him Aileen, he is so respectful and composed for his age” complimented the old man. “Thank you for not giving him up and keep him until today, you were brave” he added. Aileen blinked her tears, responding with her forced smile. She felt like crying aloud, brave wasn't something she expected to hear from him at all. “Yes, thank you very much. It must have been hard for you” Claimed the old woman, although her face was saying something else. Was she angry at me? Because she wasn't even trying to hide it whenever she glances her way. God please! She thought. “Thank you too” she replied, trying as hard as she could to keep her composure. She really doesn't need to be thanked for raising her own son for all these years, because she was going to do it all over again if she was asked to. That accident might have been her biggest failure but she doesn't regret having Leelan, he was the reason why she kept living. He practically saved her life and gave her a purp

  • Let's Start Over    Meeting with his family

    Aileen's POV On the way, I was quietly looking outside the window while the father and son were playing. I can't lie, I was so scared to face his family after what happened between us. I ….I just can't get past the fact that they all tried to pursue me back then and all i remember doing was casting them aside. They all tried but I treated them badly that day, and to think that it wasn't even his fault to begin with made it even more hard for me. That was the biggest error I have ever made in my life, my life took a big turn since that accident and it was all for some lies, deceit!. “God, please forgive me” I sighed, rubbing my chest. Alan must have noticed my troubled face, he held my shoulder “Nervous?” He asked. I let out rashly “No! Why would I be?” He pulled back his hand, “Should I give you a mirror then?” My eyes widened. “Is it that obvious?” I thought I was good at hiding emotions until this man proved me wrong. “Very, it's all over your face.
