I woke up the following morning feeling very relaxed and refreshed, I was surprised to see myself on the bed though I remember sleeping off on the couch I didn’t want to do too much on the first day, thank God he brought me to bed I would have had sever body ache in the morning. I looked around the room but didn’t see Damien anywhere in sight; the room was still dark so where would he have gone to? Did he even sleep in the room at all? I laid in bed thinking about my husband I'm glad I got to finally see his face, now my mind is at ease about his looks.“come in” Who is that disturbing my beautiful thoughts, I whispered to myself.Lucas came in to view “Lucas what are you doing here Damien is not here”I know that ma, but he asked that I take you back to the main house before he left”“Left, what time is it?” “It is 10:47 am ma”“10:4 what! How come no one came to w
The mall wasn’t so busy because it was a weekday; we headed straight to the supermarket because Lizzy had a lot on her list.“Here take this, and shop for everything, I'll use this to shop from the other side” I turned to begin my task.“Amelia, please mind the quantity and brands, it’s essential” I just gave her a nod.I picked a trolley and began the supermarket search. I moved through the iles carefully so I didn’t miss anything. As I looked through the list I wondered who ate some of these things because they have not cooked meals with some of the ingredients on the list since I have been in that house.As I moved on picking items and putting them in the trolley, of course looking at the brands carefully, I noticed that my trolley was already full “what is Lizzy even shopping for if my basket is this full” I was just wondering. I signaled to the bodyguard who came with us to come over.I asked him to get me another trolley and a basket I’ll use to buy school-related items that I’l
I was confused as to what she meant by “that’s my husband.”I immediately followed the stretcher; and tried asking the nurses and doctors questions but no one paid me no attention. When we got to the theater I tried to go in but the nurse blocked my passage.“You can’t go in ma’am “ But that’s my husband I have to go in”Ma’am the doctors have limited time to save the patient’s life, you have to wait till he’s in the clear”Are you sure he will be okay?”Ma’am, we have to wait for the doctors to come out of the theater, but for now, I advise you to call all his other available family members” She walked away.I felt so helpless; I took out my phone and called the only person on my mind.“Hello Bryan, I can’t do anything he’s in the theater and in here doing nothing, they won’t allow me to go in…” I kept rambling until my phone was snatched from my hand.“Why Lizzy I was telling him the problem”No, you were not, you were only speaking about how useless you
DAMIENWhat the hell why did Grace hang up on me, I stared at my phone in disbelief. “Damien should I pack up already we need to go home” Lucas annoying voice again.I tried calling Grace again and again but the call kept going to voice mail. “Hey Lucas call Grace and find out where she is” he just nodded and went on with it.“Her number keeps going to voice mail, I tried it twice but I guess she’s on her way home its already past 8 pm” I kind of agreed with him but something still felt wrong.I looked at my wristwatch “She should be home by now put a call through to Lizzy directly” I felt unsettled.“Lizzy said she isn’t home yet but she called earlier that she will be running late” that reply made me uncomfortable. “Lucas call Mr. Ben now, I want to know what time she left the office and get Alex to track her phone now!”“Mr. Ben said she left the office at 5 pm and Alex tracked her phone to its last location which is
Amelia was looking at him in total shock… he looked all fine to me without any scars. like I have already started seeing things.“What are you doing out here…how are you even out here” I was bloody confused.Grace touched my shoulder, held my hand, and led me to sit down.1hour earlierGrace Pov“Hello Grace sorry I missed the call Lucas was with my phone. Hello Grace are you there” she wasn’t saying anything I wondered why. I ended the call and dialed again.“Hello Grace” Hello Damien is that you” “What sort of question is that, you called me 2 hours ago but I missed the call thanks to Lucas? How did the meeting go?”“Where are you Damien, because this shit is confusing the life out of me?”She was also confusing the life out of me “I’m out with Lucas”If you are out, who is in the theater now?”My battery died so I went to look for where to charge up a little. I met a nurse who was willing to charge my phone
AmeliaI felt like a ghost of myself, I felt so stupid after what he said to me last night. I just didn’t want to feel useless I couldn’t help my mother neither could I help my father. It just feels like I am some bad luck always waiting to happen.The knock on my door brought me out of my thoughts “Come in”“Good morning Amelia, I came to check on you”“Check on me? What’s the time?”“It’s almost noon and you didn’t come down for breakfast, don’t worry I brought you something to eat but Grandpa has been asking your whereabouts since morning”“I didn’t know what the time says I’ll get ready and be out soon” She had such a sad look on her face for me.Lizzy put her hand on my shoulder and stopped me from getting out of bed “Relax Amelia, Grace told me what happened at the hospital”I automatically had tears in my eyes “I acted paranoid, and he laughed at me” The tears were already streaming down my face.“No you didn’t act p
It’s already 11:00 am on Saturday and Daddy is not home yet, he called me yesterday when he was boarding his private jet to tell me he was coming home yesterday. It is not in Daddy’s nature to miss appointments especially one as important as coming to see his princess. I already called his assistant but she said she stayed back in Los Angeles for business… daddy’s numbers are switched off.Just as I was all in my thoughts the doorbell rang and as the ‘maid’ and the only one at home I went to get the door. Two police officers came to sight with another man in a black suit. One of the police officers asked, “is this Mr. Harpers' residence… your father’s plane was in an accident and he is currently at the city memorial hospital.” I was losing my breath as the tears were choking me and then I blacked out.It’s been 2 months and Daddy is still in a coma, my stepmother and sister do not seem to care what happens to him. They do not visit the hospital nor do they call the doctor to know
Everyone had a normal look on their faces; I was the only one confused. Bryan dropped his wine glass and then turned to Mr. Holland and said ‘Here is just fine sir’ Mr. Holland then looked at his sister and granddaughter before turning to another man dressed in black which I didn’t notice till now and collected a folder from him. Bryan then took the folder and signed it immediately without even reading the contents; I found it odd because Bryan is one person who reads everything. Just after that Mr. Holland, his sister Margret, and his granddaughter Helen all got up and headed to the door, and out of excitement Margret turned to me and said “We cannot wait to make you part of our family.” I was so confused wondering what the whole dinner and contract was all about while still in my thoughts my stepmother and sister came to me and congratulated me with weird smiles and as they worked out of the room they were both laughing.As soon as Bryan stepped back into the house I bombarded h
