2021-08-22 01:20:32Alex's POV;
I'm sitting silently with Amos, in his living room. The television is running, however, my mind and attention are not being paid to my environment, as all I'm interested in is my phone, as I am surfing the internet.
I just finished liking a picture on I*******m, when my phone begins to buzz. My eyes widen at the caller ID.
It's my mum. It's been a while since we spoke. A very long while at that. She moved to Thailand for career purposes and has been living there ever since.
Why is she calling me now? I quickly sit up and take a deep breath, causing Amos to stare at me. I then receive the call.
"Hello, mum? "I call into the phone on picking the call, and my mother's sweet, soothing, voice replies.
"My darling child! I'm at the airport, come get me. "She says, and my brain explodes.
"Sorry, what? "I question in alarm, and Amos looks up at me again, wondering what's wrong.
"I said, I'm at the airport. Come and

Love Again   32 - A Good Person
Alex's POV; I have explained everything concerning Damon, Amos, and Sia to my mom. I filled her in on everything there is to know, and she's been very supportive. I'm currently in Amos's house. I'm sitting on the swing in the middle of his garden, swinging gently without my legs leaving the ground. I've been spending a lot of time here, and to be honest, most of it is out of guilt. I can't go on with my life and live fully in my house when I mostly feel his current condition is because of me. He no longer has any external injuries, but he isn't completely fine. His nurse is still around, and we still visit his doctor now and then. My mind crawls back to Damon, and I smile as his perfect face reflects in every short second of darkness I get with every blink I make. His beautiful brown eyes that never lack that pop of light, his beautiful, soft, brown hair that he always gels back perfectly, his beard which he always leaves as low as possible... His face in all which gives the dea

Amanda's POV; I am sitting idle on my bed. My mind several kilometers into my past. I'm four months pregnant with twins now, and soon enough, my stomach would start protruding. I've lost a few contracts and job offers just because I've added more weight. It's been over 23 years. More than twenty-three years ago, my life was stolen from me. Thrown down into a nasty, dark valley, and I've lived with my broken self since then. I used to be full of joy and hope till all those years ago. My life ended before my eyes and there was nothing I could do about it. Sure, I use drinks, parties, money, and the likes, to hide my scars. But every night, when I'm alone, my true self shows its face to me again, and trust me... she is ugly. I knew it was stupid of me to have unprotected sex. It was dumb and it was irresponsible. Not only could I have gotten pregnant, but I could have also caught STD, and STIs, however, I didn't care much. I have always h

Damon's POV;A cord snaps in my head as I stare at Alex. What on earth is she doing here? Who called her here? What gives her the right to be here and who on earth told her I want to see her tonight of all nights!?Perhaps my mom sees the look on my face, so she begins to stutter."Uhm... Uhm. I... Damon, I invited Alex. "She says, and I glare at her with wide eyes in shock.She what!?"I... I thought s... seeing her would... would lighten your mood. "She adds, and my brows furrow.She thought me seeing the same woman who left me for no reason, the same woman who's been going on dates with another man despite being married to me, she thought me seeing that woman would lighten my mood!?I make to speak but stop myself as the crowd in the room is staring at us, and I wouldn't want to embarrass my mother.I gently release my grip from her hand and look up at Alex.

Alex's POV; It's been a while since I went to Amos's house. He's getting better, and I've been busy at work.

I've also been feeling down due to my scattered emotions and brain. Nothing in my life right now seems to make sense.

"I exclaim before setting the cup of tea on the coffee table and heading to the door. My cat. Twinkle. Rushes to sit on the coffee table, and I chuckle. She always does that when I have a visitor.

Alex's POV; I pull up in a frenzy in front of Amos's house, before dashing in. I find his workers downstairs in a group, shaking in fear while staring at his room's shut door. I look up and find his panicking nurse outside his room, shaking like a leaf in the wind, and trying to reach out to him. I rush upstairs to meet her, and the nurse rushes to me on seeing me. "Oh, thank heavens you're here. He started this some minutes ago. He's been breaking things and screaming your name. I'm scared he'd hurt himself. " She says to me, and I gulp at the sound of things crashing and breaking inside. "Amos? It's Alex. May... May I come in? "I say after knocking on the door, and silence falls upon us. A click sound that indicates that he has unlocked the door is heard from inside, and I take a deep breath before opening the door and walking in. I yelp as he pulls me in and shuts the door after me. I come back to myself, and stare around at

It's almost like my life began to degenerate after I made this divorce stunt, and the negativity of the situation only began to come into play when things had gone a little too far.

Love Again   66 -Love Again
Alex's POV;Love... It's a very funny thing. It take you and redefines you. It changes most if your believes and gives you a new view of life. It teaches you that you don't always have to do everything on your own, and it so teaches you that forgiveness is one of the very important wheels that keeps life going. If there's no love, a lot of us would feel incomplete and failed. Love hurts sometimes, and sometimes it heals. In the last few months, I've grown to learn that love indeed isn't a bed of roses.There are ups, downs, sad times, happy times, good times and definitely the hurting times. But there's so much joy when there's love around. Love that makes you feel whole and complete.Love that heals you in ways you'd never imagined. To love you need to let most of yourself go, and trust completely. I'm currently enjoying my life with Damon, and it's amazing.I'm seven months pregnant now, and we're currently at the hospital, waiting outside Amanda's wars. She's in labor, and Max ha

Sia's POV;I'm currently at Alex's garden, back at her and Damon's house. It's been a while since we last hung out, and she called me over telling me that we needed to talk.I low-key think I know what the bottom line for this meeting is, and honestly, I'm not sure I'm ready. I mean... Which best friend won't be mad that her friend has been keeping a huge secret from her, for years?"When were you planning on telling me, Sia? "Alex questions as I take my cup of lemonade to my mouth, and I gulp.I gently drop the cup back on the table before looking up at her, and she gives me a look."Sia, we attended college together, we've been through so much together, even when Amos came back, you were the one who kept pointing out that you think he likes me and that if I feel he's the one for me, I shouldn't fight it.Why were you doing that? Why didn't you just come open to me? "She questions and I shut my eyes."You didn't even give anyone a chance to suspect. How could you do that?? "She conti

I find it funny because who would imagine such. I tried to steal the husband of my mother's best friend's daughter.My mom was disappointed when she found out about everything, but she's forgiven me now, and we've agreed that after my therapy, I'd move back to Thailand with her.I don't know about my feelings for Damon. I'm trying my best to kill them, and I know that I haven't made much progress.I'm sure about this because I know that if I see him, all the emotions I've been trying to bottle up, would come undone.

She really is a different type of woman. "Mia states as I feel her sit beside me, and I open my eyes."Yeah... "I reply dryly."If it were me or any other woman in her shoes, I'd be wishing the worst for you. Not coming to apologize... "She states, and I shut my eyes again."What are we going to do now? "She questions and I keep my eyes shut. I don't know what we'd do now. I've lost my job, and my reputation.

Lucia's POV;I'm on my way to the hospital with Alex. I don't know why, but she insisted on coming to see Ava. It's annoying because I really think she shouldn't care if the witch is fine or not. If you ask me, I'd say I don't mind if she died in that hospital. She tried to kill my son-in-law. It's only fair for me to wish she died in that fire, but she didn't!And heaven knows why Alex is going to see her today. The doctor told us that Ava and Damon were fine, however, Damon got discharged, while Ava hasn't. The cops are patiently waiting for her to recover so they can send her for a mental check-up, or just lock her up for attempted murder.Either is fine by me.

Audrey's POV;I suddenly jolt out of my sleep, when a sound wakes me. It sounded like a door opening. I've not been able to sleep deeply tonight. Moses came over here to spend the night, as he has an interview at an office not too far from my house, tomorrow morning, and his house is quite far. If he spends the night in his house, he'd be late for the interview, and might even lose the job. So, he asked for my help, and I gave it. He agreed to sleep in the living room as there are only two rooms in this house. One for me, and the other for Angela, and there's no way I'd sleep in the same room as him. At least not now. I don't trust him enough, and as much as I want to, I haven't fully accepted him back. I need to know what he's truly here for. He says he wants to make up for his mistakes, but I'm only human. You can't expect me to trust him after all these years. There are so many different possibilities for his reappearance. Possibilities that send shivers down my spine and a s

But to be honest, I'm not completely happy. I feel whatever he's doing, he's doing out of pity.Either that, or he's using me as a rebound. It makes no sense to me. Yes, the care and attention he's showing sure is something I've longed for, for a very long time, and it's been my dream for way too long.But it only began after my outburst to him. I can still remember all the emotions that were running through me that day in his car when I blurted out my deepest secret to him. The truth about my feelings for him.I should be happy and feel over the rainbow that the man I love now spends quality time with me and is always there when I need him. Right? But no.

I spray its content on his face, and he grunts in pain as it gets into this eyes. He staggers and I lead him to the couch as his eyes begin to flutter. "What did you do to me, Ava? "He questions in worry as he rubs his eyes, and I stare down at him in pain. "If I won't have you, Damon... No one else will. If you didn't want me, you never should have given me a taste of you.

Even if she is with his child, what then? Am I expected to leave my husband for another woman? It's not my fault she dug a hole and fell into it... But it's not the child's fault that its mother is a whore. Is there even a child? I'm so confused. I don't know what to, and what not to do. I pick up my phone and decide that I need to talk to Damon. I miss him. He's reclined ever since Ava showed up. Guilt had been bugging him before, but after she came to us with such news, Damon became a shell of his former self. He... let guilt consume him fully.
