Angela woke up with a heavy feeling in her chest.She had tossed and turned all night, her dreams were nothing but the memories of Antonio and the guilt that weighed on her conscience.As she sat up in bed, she felt a wave of exhaustion all over her. Her muscles ached badly, and her head throbbed with a dull headache. She knew that her stress and anxiety had taken a toll on her body, leaving her body feeling drained and weak.Despite the weak feeling in her body, Angela knew she couldn't spend another day wallowing in her sadness and anxiety concerning her issue with Antonio. She forced herself out of bed, moving slowly and deliberately out of the bed.With a heavy sigh, she walked slowly towards the bathroom.As she brushed her teeth, she tried not to think about Antonio again and the possibility of him being aware of her dirty game with Damon.Just then her younger brother Jace burst into her room, the sound of the jammed door startled Angela, her eyes widened in surprise. “What w
Kerry was lounging on the couch in her friend Christy's place, scrolling through a fashion blog with her other friend, Beth. Who was also busy with her phone.“Oh my gosh, have you seen the latest designs from Paris Fashion Week?” Kerry asked no one in particular, her eyes wide with excitement.Beth nodded, her blonde hair bobbing up and down. “Yeah, I saw some shows online. The dresses were stunning!”Kerry sighed wistfully. “I wish I could afford those prices. I'd totally rock that Chanel couture gown on the red carpet.it's so vintage.”Beth laughed savagely. "You think you will fit in? Kerry you need to have the body too you know”.Kerry's eyes lowered in annoyance.“What's that supposed to mean? Are you body-shaming me?”“Girls, let's not fight over little meaningless things”.Christy interrupted.She was the least interested in their conversation, although she is good at fashion, but she's more like the emo of the group.“How can you call this meaningless? She literally body-sha
“But what about our friends? And school? And our favorite ice cream shop?”Lia complained.Angela made a sad face.“I know it's a big change honey, but we'll make new friends and find new favorite spots. And we'll stay in touch with our friends here through video calls and visits.”The kids are still not convinced.“Hey remember aunty Doris makes the best Pizzas imagine having her around the house all day, she will make us the biggest pizzas, and don't you like that?”She winked.Lia smiled a little at the thought of food.However, Liya still looked skeptical. “But why do we have to move? Can't you just do something, so we don't have to move, please?”Angela sighed, trying to think of a convincing explanation. “It's not possible, sweetie. But trust me, this is going to be an adventure for us all. We'll explore a new city together and make memories that will last a lifetime. I promise you baby, I want the best for us”The girls looked at each other, then back at Angela, their faces s
Angela sighed, her eyes avoiding him. "Jace, I've made up my mind.Jace shook his head, his expression unyielding. “You're making a mistake, Angela. You're running away from your problems instead of facing them head-on.”Angela's face tightened in a firm line. "I'm doing what I have to do, Jace. I have to put our family first, and this is what's best for us. Staying isn't safe”.Jace eye's widened in surprise.“What do you mean by staying isn't safe? Is there anything I am yet to know?”Angela said nothing.The kids stopped at the elevator and Angela caught up with them.Jace sighed and carried one of the boxes.As they stepped into the elevator, Angela pressed the button for the first floor, and the doors slid shut behind them, closing the door on a tumultuous past.The elevator descended, and the four of them stood in silence, Angela's mind calculating all that Jace said to her.As the doors opened on the first floor, they stepped out.The cab driver approached them.“I am so sorr
He dashed through the rooms, calling out for Angela, but only silence replied. He felt a pang of anger and frustration.He dropped on the couch with a laughter as dark as the sadness he felt that moment.How could she do this to him? Didn't she know how much he loved her, how much he needed her at a time like this?She met with Diana…then went completely silent over it.A hand on his face.“You think you can bitch walk into my life and vanish from it, you are really guilty ain't you?”He closed his eyes and swallowed tightly his head thrown back.“The hell am I feeling anxious for?”His tight breathing worsened, and his hands clenched hard beside him on the couch.At a time like this, a hardcore will come in a handy.He thought of Diana…but the memories always came with Angela's face.“I am fucked for real”.“I can't believe I trusted some bitch and get hurt…and I can't believe I am doubting that she will ever hurt me”.He laughed again this time lowly, he went silent as the episode
Antonio's luxury car screeched to a halt in front of the grand hotel, its tires were smoking in protest. He flung open the door and stepped out, his eyes blazing with anger. The hotel staff, recognizing him immediately as heir to the wealthy and influential Montero's family that owned that very establishment, scrambled to attention.“Young master Antonio! Welcome, sir!” the concierge exclaimed, rushing to open the door for him.Antonio strode past him, his long strides eating up the distance to the reception desk. “I need to see Diana,” he growled, his voice low and menacing.It caused the woman to tremble.The receptionist, a timid-looking young woman in her late twenties, immediately checked the register.“Ah, yes, Ms. Diana is staying in suite 314,Shall I call up and let her know you are here, sir?”Antonio's eyes narrowed, but he said nothing.It was enough for the receptionist to know what to do and what not to do.He marched towards the elevators, his anger boiling.The unifor
“You groomed me, Diana. You lied to me. And now you're trying to play the victim?”Antonio said, staring directly into her eyes.Diana's eyes filled up with surprised tears, but Antonio didn't relent. “I was abused and violated by you, maybe you should open your eyes Diana and see things more clearly. This is not your little foxy anymore. I am no more the clueless teenager, who is mentally unfit to handle his emotions. I am not the same as the little boy who was violated and ran into your perverted hands for love. You want to play games? Fine. But don't expect me to play along.”Diana's eyes widened and moved down from Antonio's.Slowly she took a trembling step backwards.After a few minutes of intense silence between them, she finally found her voice.“Antonio, I am telling you nothing but the truth, please understand. I don't know what you heard, but I am not a groomer, we do share a connection. I risked my life to keep you safe.”She smiled in tears and looked up at him. “We had
However, she came to mind.Angela.He wasn't even thinking about her. He pulled back from her and cursed.Embarrassed by his actions, he was weak, he couldn't resist her.Diana, however, was very encouraged by his reactions to his tough.“Not so tough, as I thought. This is my chance”.She smiled to herself.She turned and walked back to the bed and lie down, she closed her eyes and swallowed hard.“Just one time, then I will truly believe you”.Antonio stood there motionless, looking at her.“Antonio, fuck me. Watch me, make you forget all about Angela.”“What if I don't want to?”Antonio replied.Diana opened her eyes, fighting back her frustration.“What the fuck are you talking about Antonio, enough of your childish games, I own you, now get on the bed and fuck me!”Her voice strained and her green veins popped.Antonio seeing her furious, surrendered and slowly walked towards her.Diana smirked and took a deep breath.In anticipation, she licked her lips and closed her eyes.Her
