Bethany Carter finds herself between a rock and a hard place. Who would she choose? Levi or Andrew. Andrew on the other hand became her best friend, someone she could rely on whenever she needed one, her son has grown to love him, and she just didn’t want to risk their friendship with the decision she had to make. Whatever decision she would make would be in the interest of her son. As a parent, as much as she wanted to be happy, she also wanted the same for her child and would put him first. Would Levi be a good father to their son, will he hurt her again? She kept on asking herself those questions to avoid getting hurt again. She knew her decision would either make or break her son Levi finds out he has a son with Bethany, when he found out, he just couldn’t believe how he could love someone so easily without having to try he loved his son so much and could already slay the world for this small being this made him much more persistent. He had a rough childhood being raised by a sin
Life is indeed very short…and we are really like flowers, blooming today and down tomorrow”Bethany says as she stands Infront of a mirror staring at the stretch marks on her abdomen, as she runs her hand around.Flashes of her late son's memories came flooding back, and tears rolled down her cheeks.“He was there for me at my lowest moments, and the one time he needed me, I wasn’t there, I couldn’t help him, what kind of a mother am I!He was so young and had his whole future in front of him; this world is really cruel” Bethany says as she continues to sob uncontrollably.“He was just a boyyy, his only sin was being my son!My boy!My sweet boy!Would you ever forgive me”?It’s not your fault darling, there was nothing you could do” Levi said trying to comfort her, “I blame myself for not getting there on time, but I promise you at the right time, I’ll avenge our son’s death, mark my word”.“But I should have protected him, that's why I'm his mother. He kept calling out to me, but I
“I need to speak to Catherina; I think she can help me”. He left without informing Bethany about where he was going. Soon he arrived at Catherina’s.“Ding dong”…..the sound of the doorbell resonates through Catherina’s house.A little boy runs to take the door, “hello there, my mummy says I can’t take the door except she asks me to, but she’s in the shower and I can’t leave you out here so I might be in trouble now. How may I help you?”“I’m here to see Catherina” Levi answered, “do you know my mummy?”Levi hesitates for a while, as a memory of his son begins to reawaken, if his son was alive, they’d be almost the same age. He then stoops down to talk to the child.“Yes dear, I know your mummy” he said.“Is my mummy your friend?” The child asked.Levi couldn’t help but get emotional at that point and so he draws the child close goes on his knees and hugs him tightly. “She is my sister” he replied“Who are you talking to bab…” she was stunned as she walked in on Levi in her sitting ro
You practically stopped talking to me after I left, I mean I came back to see you but no one seemed to know your where about, where have you been Levi”. Just when he was about to answer Catherina’s question, his phone rang, and Bethany was calling.LEVI: Hi BabeBETHANY: Babe, where are you? I’ve been looking for you everywhere, did you go out?LEVI: yeahhh… eeehh, I just stepped out to buy something. See you soon.BETHANY: Oh…okay, I’ll be waiting for you.Levi got up immediately to take his leave “where are you going, you’re leaving already? You just got here. Wait you haven’t seen your sister for years and you’re going to zoom off just like that?” Catherina asked.“I’m sorry but I have to go Cathy, we’d talk some other time”, he said.“Of course, she calls and you just run off like a puppy”, what did that woman do to you?”“Thank you, Cathy, I really needed the help”, he gave her a hug and then turned around to leave, “say hi to the kid”.He arrived home late and met Bethany standi
The sun seemed to be up quite early, one would think it was just next door. The sharp rays of the brightly shining morning sun pierced trough the transparent white curtains hanging lazily over the window gently brushed through the skin of the duo, as they laid snuggled on their bed, cuddled up in each other’s arms.“Good morning my love”, Levi said“Good morning, I feel so hungry,” she replied with a lazy sleepy tone as she stretched and yawned.“Would you like me to order some food for us or should we freshen up then step out to grab a bite” he asked.“I think we should eat out, at least we’d get a firsthand view of the resort” she said in response.In a short while, the couple had freshened up and were set for the days adventure and so headed out of their room to tour the resort and grab breakfast while they were at it.Bethany spotted a hut nicely knitted with raffia from a short distance, she fell in love with the sight and requested they sat there for breakfast. The view from the
“Let’s start over”, she said. “I know we’ve had our share of life and rough patches, but I don’t want to do life without you, I want to always be by your side”, she added.Both reached to lock lips with their hands still locked together. After a long while of sitting out and having a heart-warming conversation, they headed back into their room to take a nap. As they walked back, they bumped into Regi.“Sir Levi, wow, is this really you? Long time Boss” Regi said as he greeted Levi. Levi had to pretend to know him in other to eliminate any suspicion on Bethany’s part. Bethany just started to move out of her shell and be herself again and Levi will do all he can to sustain it. For him it wasn’t the right time to explain his situation, how would she take it?“Hi, man! long time. How’ve you been?“Great Sir, you’ve changed a lot, sir. Is this your wife?” Regi asked.“Soon” he answered as he looked at Bethany with a bright smile. “We have to go now, see you around”, he said to the young ma
It wasn’t Bethany. His past was indeed closing up on him faster than he thought.He turned to look but couldn’t seem to know this person. Though the voice seemed familiar, it was too good to be true, so he refused to assume. Everyone wore their mask, making it difficult to recognize anyone in such a party filled with masked people.All he could think of that night was the voice, “Could it be Natalie?” More than ever Levi seemed very confused. What if it was Natalie, his wife from his exile days? What would he do? How would he manage to keep her away from Bethany?The next day, Bethany woke up to a knock on the door. While Levi was still fast asleep, she stood up, put on her slippers, and headed for the door. She opened the door, and all she could find was a small red souvenir bag lying by the door. She picked it up and looked around but caught sight of no one, so she closed the door. Eager to know what was in the bag, she immediately dipped her hand to check. It was a similar package
“What was that for? First, you embarrassed me in there, and then you told her we have plans when in actual sense we do not.” is something wrong? Are you okay? She asked.“We won’t go there, you do not even know her”, he said.“How would you know her if you do not meet her, I do not understand you. You have been acting strange since we got here”, she replied.“We are not going there, and that is final, not just the lunch, any other event hosted by this resort,” Levi said to stamp his authority.“No no, I am going, and that is final!” Bethany responded as she walked away in anger.Levi was in deep thought. What would he do to prevent the approaching chaos? Natalie was there to destroy his relationship with Bethany; Bethany does not understand that, he does not know how to explain his situation, and maybe he felt it was not the right time. He has to protect Bethany and his relationship with Natalie no matter the cost; he is not going to lose Bethany the second time.The next day, he went
