She left to Ava tomb at the burial ground with a flower in her hands. Clara kneeled with tears in her heart, looking at his picture, "You have left me alone in the world. Ava, my love, my heart beats for you. I think of you all the day. You mean a lot to me. I am here to present to you an amazing gift; please don't say no to it. Wake up and accept it. Please." She burst out into tears, with her head on his tomb.
She dropped the flowers on his tomb after waiting for a while without response. Clara left for her house.
She got home and thought about how to be more accessible to the Ava family. At thesame time promised to get married from among Ava family members."I am stuck with him; I can't forget about him. I have to choose a husband from his family. I don't mind involving Sherman in this; all I need is a man who has his blood and looks like him, someone to look into and see Ava in him." She pondered and said, "How then can I achieve this?" She asked and thought for a while. Little did she come up with an idea.
"I will work on him. I don't care how difficult it will be for me. All I know is that I will surely get to make him the man I want." She added. She brought out her phone and put a call to her mother, whom she shared her secret with. "Hello mother. How was the day and dad? I hope you are fine." She asked. "Yes, my daughter, we are fine, but we missed you a lot. When will you be coming over for weekend? She asked with expectation. "Not soon, mother,".she replied. "Why won't you be coming for the weekend next week? Remember, we are to attend a family friend's wedding. You might get to catch up with a new fiance there." She said it with a smile. "Mother that's not easy. I can't forget Ava in a hurry. He is the man I love, moreover, you sound like one who don't have feel of his disappearance." She answered in a quiet voice. "He is gone, isn't that clear to you?" She asked him. "But still afresh in my heart." Ava answered. "Whatever." Evelyn sounded angry. "So what are your excuses for why you won't be coming for the weekend next week?" "I feel not to. Mother, I need to spend it with the Lucas family. As well as make myself ready for the new album to be released on his name Ava name in remembrance of him" She responded, deviating from the main reason she had called. "That shouldn't be an excuse. You have them all the time, and so does your song. Moreover,the connection you had with the family is gone; what else do you want?" Evelyn sounded with a loud voice. "Nevermind mother. I promised to make it up to you next week." Clara, after saying this, cut the call on her mother."She cut the call on me." Evelyn said to herself,
She sat and thought of what to do, then she came up with an idea again,
She had a plan to catch his attention at the gym where he went every every Saturday. She worked hard to get in shape and ran all the way to the fitness center. There, she watched him exercise, admiring his muscles and his sweat. When he lifted his leg, she noticed something familiar. "His leg hair looks just like Ava's, my late sweetheart," she whispered. Sherman heard her and glared at her, annoyed by her presence. He focused on his workout and thought to himself, "What is she doing here?" She hoped he would say something, but he remained silent and avoided her gaze. Later, she approached him while he was resting, holding a cup of hot chocolate with a straw in it. "Hi," she said to him. He turned his face away and muttered, "Hmm."```She tried to start a conversation with him, but he was not interested. He sipped his chocolate and looked at his phone, ignoring her questions and comments. She felt hurt and angry, wondering why he was so cold to her. She had done everything to get his attention. She decided to confront him and ask him why he was treating her so badly. "Hey, what's wrong with you?" she demanded. "Why are you acting like this? Don't you see how calm I am toward you?"
He pushed her away and shook his head in disgust. He stared at her with a mix of pity and anger, as he also She grabbed her arm and pulled him closer, forcing him to look at her. "Look, I don't know who you are or what you want from me, but you need to stop this madness," he said, getting crazy at her.
She felt weak and wouldn't know what to do. He denied her to everyone who had been watching them. "Sherman, I only wanted to have a little time spent with you, like Ava." She said. "I am not Ava; get that into your sense; he is my twin brother and his late." He faced her and said, "Not even on earth or beyond will I have time spent with you." He concluded and poured on her body the chocolate he was drinking. "No sense." He hissed and left. Clara stood; she looked down where he had poured her the chocolate, as well as those watching. She pretended to put on a smile and wave hands at them, proving to be doing okay.Clara walks slowly to her house, in a sad mood. She had the earpods off, struggling to pretend, yet she couldn't do that. She got home, got a glass of wine, and drank from it.
"Ha", she screamed, and she angrily hit the glass on the wall. "Sherman has the right to disgrace me in this manner, simply because I was looking for love—a man like Ava. Will I be able to change Sherman to the man to whom my heart belongs?" She said sitting on the cushion with her head bowed in between her legs. She left her head and laid it on the cushion. "I will do my best. I will take the insult to achieve my goal." She beat her chest and stood on the cushion to take a shower.On a faithful day, when everyone has gone to work, Ava was left alone after eating. He went into the kitchen, though he wasn't aware of where he was. Laying his hands on the cooking utensils. Gradually, he laid hands on the kitchen basin and on the top.Ava stood watching the flow of water from the top to the basin."Hmmm", he muttered, wondering what it was and where it was coming from. "What is this?" He kept wondering, leaving it on, and making his way into his room since he wasn't aware on how to off it.He got into his room and sat on the bed while he watched himself in the mirror."Who are you?" He asked his image, which had reflected on the mirror. Not be able to have an answer. He crossed his legs and had his head placed in between on the bed.The tap kept running until Roxanne arrived; she noticed it and ran into the kitchen and ""Didn't I get off the top before leaving? Who might have done this?" She said, turning to leave, she saw Ava standing with his hands crossed on his
Sherman, with his reckless driving, couldn't control the car at high speed; suddenly, he had hit an incoming truck and was unconscious. He was rushed to the hospital.Lucas, with his eye on his phone, saw a strange number, and he picked up the call."Hello, who is on the line?" He asked."Am I speaking with Lucas, Sherman's father?" doctor Gabriel asked.Before now, Lucas had called Sherman ; he wanted to know how he was doing, but Sherman ignored the call while driving. With the missed call displayed on the phone, doctor Gabriel got to pick the number."Yes, and who am I speaking with?" Lucas asked."This doctor Gabriel, your son Sherman, lies in my hospital." He answered. Lucas was confused, and he stammered."What, what happened,?" He became curious."He had an accident and was rushed to the hospital. Your present is needed, sir." Doctor Gabriel said:"Alright, I will be right there now." He couldn't inform Norah; rather, he rushed to the hospital. "Where is my son?" He asked the
A month later, it was then told about Sherman Not being able to have constant help due to his rude life."I think this is the opportunity for me to help. I don't care how difficult it might be for me. All I want is to make him look like his brother." Clara said she was planning to bear the insult from Sherman while being with him.She got to inform Lucas and Norah about her new decision.They were pleased with it. But when it got to her mother, she almost got mad at her. "When have you turned a fool?" She asked."You have decided to live your life with the hope that Ava will return to life." She asked. Clara on the phone."Mother, you wouldn't have heard this if I hadn't called to hear your opinion".,she said on the phone."You are no longer a kid; you have you love to plan, but get this inside of you, that I won't be there when he starts rattling on you. Remember, he is rude and arrogant; he doesn't have respect for people. Clara, you are my only daughter; taking such a step is to re
Amber planned mischief against Sherman.Already, Amber, the chef, has felt insulted and abusive."I can't take such a sheet from him; he has no right to pour the food on me. I think I have to take his life. And I will do that by poisoning him." She said to herself,Clara got into the kitchen to apologize to her."You were the reason why he rubbished me today. He wouldn't have done that if I hadn't allowed you to use the kitchen." Amber pours out her anger."Am sorry. I wanted to help out." Clara said. "I do this with her, she added."And you think you can. the same as that arrogant cripple. He planned to fire me like others; he should be aware that I am not just an ordinary chef; I have learned and have my rights; he has no right to mess with my body in such a manner." She spoke in anger."Am sorry. The deal has been done. We all have to endure his attitude and watch him change soon." Clara advise."He needs someone to teach him the lesson of his life before he can be a changed person
Sherman returned home; he was sitting on the wheelchair beside the swimming pool. Clara met with him."Can we have a little walk?" She asked him with her sneakers and sport kits."Don't mock me." He said it to her."I am not. This is to remind you that you need to strengthen your legs. According to the doctor, you were supposed to walk two days ago, but your bones seem weak because you didn't make an attempt to match them on the ground. Please let me try this with you." She said."Okay, if you insist." With the help of his driver, they held his hands and helped him walk through. Sherman found it difficult; he felt the pain but was forced by Clara to do that the more. They kept repeating as it improve her; Sherman began to stand; little by little, he got to walk again.He tried using his legs in his room, and while stretching it, he heard a sound that got him to scream. Clara rushed, and when he had some relief, he realized that he could walk again."I can walk; I am back to fit." He s
Sherman and Clara planned their wedding; they chose Canada for shopping and New York for their honeymoon, leaving their home town of Serangroon.The preparation was fast-going. On the noon hour of the same day, which was known as the day Sherman and Clara wedding eve, Ava walked around his room. He looked into the mirror, and this time he tried laying his hands on it. To feel a touch to his image. Mistakenly, the mirror felt on the ground and sounded just like the sound of a plane crash. He screamed, the crash incident reflected his memory.Raine and Roxanne rushed in. And saw him laying on the floor, he lifted his head and asked."Where am I? Where is Clara?" His memory was restored. Raine remembers what the doctor told him, it was two years already."Calm down, Eric." Raine said."Who is Eric?.can someone explain what is going on here? I need a clearification."He said. "Please, can you calm down, young man?" Raine pleaded with him."I can't calm down; I am missing my parents, my fi
Clara, in her wedding gown, was rushed to the hospital, having Ava and Sherman beside her. Mr. Lucas couldn't believe his eyes; he thought this was happening in his dream. "Please calm down, Ava; we will explain everything to you." Mr. Lucas tried calming him down. "Father, there is nothing to explain here rather than explaining why you allow this to happen." Ava distracted the rest of the patients." Are you aware that this is hospital, your voice would cause noise pollution." A nurse question him. Ava, eye seems to move like a frame of fire on her. He ran towards the nurse, held her on her neck, as he almost pined her to the wall." Stop that, stop that Eric. What has come over you." Raine called on him" I am not Eric, I have told you this. I am Ava, stop making this a film scene to me." " This is reality that my own brother, the one I trusted, same who don't have taking off his mind from love, had the audacity, to make my wife his wife. Just within two years, this is a proof th
Norah, held to her gown, she could scream."Stop that, Ava; he is your brother." "He has to pay for this." Ava kept hitting Sherman, even though none could overpower each other.A little after, Raine was called from his hotel room; he quickly drove into Mr. Lucas's house."Ava, what has gone wrong with you? I thought you were a good man." Raine asked to calm the situation. Ava, on hearing Raine's voice, felt calm. He looked at Raine; all he could do was sob."This godforsaken being had taken my woman away from me." He betrayed me; in fact, he has been nurturing his feelings for her even while I was still with Clara. My disappearance now paves him a way to succeed." Ava, tone, crave in tears."I do not steal your woman from you. I have told you countless times that I love him." Sherman replied rudely."Are you aware that you just recovered? You need a rest." Raine tried to help."Where have I gone wrong? Whom have I wounded to deserve all this? I thought I was a free man, not until my
Sherman had believe Anthony."I think you have a point in what you said. I won't take it easy with Ava anymore." Sherman told Anthony."The time is clocking." Anthony triggered him.Ava decided to spend some time with Raine."You have to take Clara's thoughts from your mind." Raine told him.Ava sat down and had his eye paused on Raine."Sometimes I wonder a lot. Why will Sherman do this to me? Why will he plant his seed in Clara? Everything about the child looks like him." Ava wondered."You think Clara will let such go easily?" Rane asked him. "You should be in her shoes; imagine where..." Rain be cut short by Ava"Whatever it is, Mr. Raine, I will surely reunite with Clara; I do not care what it will take me to do that." He answered."It is obvious that you are taking it too far, even more than expected," Raine warned him. "You are like a son to me; this was the place you recovered. I might barely know you, but the little time spent with me. Ava, I believe you can do this. I believ
Surprisingly to Clara, Ava locates her."How did you get here? How did you know my way about even when I was hidden?" Clara asked, sitting on the bed, carrying her baby."Congratulations!" Ava smiled as he said. "The child looks like him!""It is proof that he is the rightful owner of my baby, the man who got me pregnant. Meanwhile, how did you get here? Who gave you the address"? She asked."There is no need to reveal such, as long as I have found you. I have no issue or stance to answer such a question." He replied.Well, Ava was hidden the detail on how he got to locate Clara. He had gotten it from a friend nurse who had attended to him in the past."Hope you are not here to hurt me or change my mood." Clars wants to have happy days all through."I see that the baby has taken your attention.""Not really, Ava. The fact here is that I need to welcome my child with a joyful heart; I wouldn't want to transfer the aggression and pains on him." Clara answered."I am not here to cause yo
Two weeks later, Clara gave birth to a bouncing baby boy. She had kept it out from Sherman's and Ava's notice. Not even Lucas and Norah were aware."Could it be that they are hiding something from me?" Sherman has heart trouble, with Clara's new development."I confess that Ava is aware of this. He must have been communicating with her." "Won't Clara mistakenly share her hidden place with me?" I am troubled." Sherman walked around his room with cigarettes. Ava, at the same time, works so hard to know Clara's way about."Clara, it marks two weeks today; I haven't set my eye on you. What have I done wrong? Can't my sin be forgiven so I will spend the rest of my life with you?" Ava is pleased with Clara on the phone."Ava, I have missed you so much; I can't wait to see you again." Clara replied, sobbing."Okay!" Ava tried to calm the situation on the phone. "I promised not to share this with my brother. I swear he won't know about it; trust me with this." "No, Ava. I wouldn't want you
The search was made; Ava was nowhere to be found."We failed!" Said the kidnapper.The old man couldn't speak; he was panicking and shivering as well."Put us a call should in case you find him." "I will!" The old man replied to the kidnapper.They left; Ava sneaks out from his hidden place."Who are you, and why do you want to put me in trouble?" The old man asked him."Thanks for your help." Ava answered and walked away without speaking further."Who must have sent them?" Ava asked himself, ignited his car, and drove off at high speed."I was almost hurt today!" Ava said to his parents, panicking. Seeing him, Sherman felt disappointed and had to put a call across to Anthony."What's up? Why the disappointment?" Sherman asked with urgency."I think Ava noticed this; he was so smart to run away. Nevertheless, tomorrow will definitely be another day. I promised you that my men will handle him." Anthony answered Sherman."Whatever it is, make sure Ava is kidnapped." Sherman ends the c
" Why not take your brother where he belong, that would help in having Clara for yourself." Anthony, speaking with Sherman who had shared the story with him.Sherman lifted his head, as he looked into Anthony's eye." What do you mean to take my neither where he belong.?" You speak strange, and confusing." Sherman curiosity went high." He wasn't alive when you fall in love with Clara, even to the point of making her your life. Why will he suddenly raised from death, just at the moment you are about exchanging the wedding vow with Clara. Isn't this a sign that he is a wizard." Anthony exaggerated.Sherman placed his index finger on his lips, he stared at Anthony so dearly wondering what Anthony was saying." You look surprised, is this new to here of a neither that killed his brother." Anthony, speak strength to the point" I am ready to sheld blood, irrespective of who he is." My brother, whatever. All I want his Clara " Sherman answered. " But I lost the strength to exechte my plans
This has to stop." Norah shouted at her sons.Clara stretched her hands and held Ava; Sherman couldn't bear it when he held Clara's left hand.The atmosphere was cold; she kept fighting with her feelings. "My heart kept judging me; my soul felt so much pain each day without you." Clara expressed her heart to Sherman and Ava, who kept staring at each other." This is eight months, soon I will be expecting my baby." She added."That makes it better; he will have to leave with his child while I have you myself all the days of my life," Ava answered. "I am sorry, Ava, the child is mine; he will have to spend the rest of his or her life beside me." Clara cleared his thoughts."Do not worsen the situation here, please; he has to leave with the child," Ava answered sadly." Never, I will have Clara right beside me, and I vow before you that I Sherman will surely do as I have spoke.," Sherman answered with all seriousness in him.Ava remain calm, he wouldn't want issue with his brother.How
Anthony, sipping his glass of wine and nodding his head as well."Won't you drink?" Anthony asked Sherman."I think you are the one that needs it most." Sherman answered, just looking and laughing as well."We are friends," Anthony asked him."Yes, we are!" He answered.Sherman, applying a trickish method, dropped his glass.He returned home; this time he was very happy."You looked so happy today; you must have won a contract." Lucas, his father, who just returned from a program, asked him."I do not know what the reason is; all I know is that I am happy!" Sherman stretched his hands."Hahahahah!" Lucas and his son laughed."Like seriously, how is everything? I believe you are fine." Norah walked closer, standing so amazing."You look so much more amazing today," Norah said, still wondering what had made Sherman happy. "I bought her a flower," Sherman, just to outsmart everyone, replied."Have you checked on your brother ?" Lucas asked him, even when he knows how deadly Sherman hate
"Clara, where have I gone wrong? I thought I deserved the best. Why are you making it so hard for me?" Sherman asked her."It is not a hard word or action. You should try to fix yourself in my shoes. I believe you will understand better." Clara answered as she sat, adjusting on the chair. "Are you justifying your act? You should be sorry for what you have done." Sherman angrily answered."Sorry, did I hear that from you?" She asked him."Yes, you need to be sorry; you need to understand that you are mine and mine alone." Sherman yelled at her.Clara stood from that chair. "You. Know what"? She asked him. "Enough of this, enough of you saying I am yours and yours alone. What happened if it didn't work out?" "Don't tell me that; don't try to say such before me, because I can't take that from you." Clara answered and left in anger. "Clara, Clara..." Sherman tried to stop her, but she had left in a hurry with tears dropping down her cheeks. " Sherman, what happened? You couldn't contr
Norah ran towards Sherman as she drew him from his shoulder."Is this how you appreciate good deeds ?" "I do not expect this from you, not until I realized that you are almost going back to your vomit." Sherman, angrily, gave Norah a bad look. Then said. "He is lucky I didn't break his head." "You are such an ungrateful human son." "What were you expecting after you have drunk to hell? You expected your car to be. Isn't it ?" When it is obvious that it would have been stolen by someone." Norah scolded him for his ungrateful act."Maybe he is one of the thieves. But acted to be good." Sherman answered her. "I pray that my documents there in the car are intact; else I will deal with him.Sherman reacted and shut the door after his mother"."If only Clara would come to conclusions, this won't go as far as this." Norah imagines, having in mind to walk down to the sitting room, when she finds herself almost at the kitchen tap."Oh!" She exclaimed as the chef called on her."Is everything
