Ariel said."I need to settle in " she replied."I understand, I understand" she replied and Xavier stepped forwards as he hugged her also."As hard as it is for me to say this Olivia , we'll miss you " He said and she smiled."I for one will miss our squabbles" he said as they disengaged and he stepped back."I know right " she replied with a small laugh."Mama " Michaela called and she squatted to her level "Yes baby " she replied."Come give Mama a hug " she said as she spread her hands out and Michaela stepped in and she wrapped her hands around her body."Mama loves you alrigh
"I don't !" She replied. "This is your boss and his friends , you're sure you don't know them?!" The doctor asked again."I don't have a boss , and I'm definitely not Mia " she said and they all looked between themselves."So what then is your name and where do you come from, what do you think brought you here ?!" Miguel asked."I have no idea " she whispered."I can assure you these guys are good people, they're after your safety and they brought you in here" "See all these body guards here ?!" The doctor said and she looked around."There are more outside and it's all their doing ""They want you to be safe " he replied."Are you sure ?!" She asked as she looked at them again."Yes " he whispered as he began to take a look at her vitals and all "She's okay now " the doctor said turning back to the three of them ."But the thing now , is that she's having temporary amnesia ""I feared it would happen" he replied."You should have warned us about it " Carl said "It's only temporar
Three weeks later ....Wedding day ....Ariel stood in front of the mirror as she stared at her reflection in the mirror.She had a small sad smile on her face , she wished more than anything for her mom to see her in this gown , but obviously you don't get everything you want , even if you deserve it."Hey sweetheart, that's alright" she heard Xavier's Mom say and she opened he eyes to see her standing behind her .Belinda slowly placed her hands on her shoulders."Today isn't the day to be sad sweetheart, it'll ruin your make up " she said ."You should be happy you get to marry the man you love , I'm sure right now if your mom could see you , she'll be supper proud of you" she said and Ariel nodded slowly."Now don't let those tears drop alright " she said as she passed her a tissue and Ariel nodded with a smile and took it from her."I should be tired even after yesterday's traditional wedding but I'm even more energetic" Ariel said with a smile as Olivia walked up to her."Normal
"Mom?!" "Rose ?!""Mom " Ariel repeated as she rushed down from the altar and ran towards her Mom holding up her gown."Mom " she cried as she pulled her into a bone crashing hug and her mom immediately wrapped her hands around her body in a tight embrace also."Is this really you Mom?!" Olivia whispered as tears fell from her face."It's me my love " She said as she pulled both of them into an hug again."You don't know how much I wanted you to see me in my wedding gown today " Ariel said and she smiled at her."And you look absolutely gorgeous , just the way I remember you " She said ."But this isn't the right person for you , we need to leave " she said ."What do you mean this is not the right person for me " she whisper and they turned to look at Xavier."Xavier !" Rose wailed , she was putting on a simple white sleeveless gown that stopped right on her knees and a yellow sandals."Rose " he whispered as he walked closer to her "Baby " Ariel replied as she let go of her Mom an
"Xavier " Rose whispered as she walked up to where he and Miguel were standing and they turned to her."I have no where to stay " she whispered "Where have you been staying prior " Miguel asked as Xavier just stood there staring at her.One could tell that he was still affected by her , maybe or not he still loved her ?! Nobody knows."I came into town when I heard about the wedding, " she whispered."I couldn't believe Xavier will do a thing like that to me , I came to see for myself and it was true " she whispered as she sniffled."I just happened to walk in at the same time with your wife's mother " she said."Okay , we'll book you an hotel " Miguel said ."You can stay with me " Xavier said immediately."Dude ?!" "Have you forgotten about Ariel ?!" Miguel said as he hit his arms."There are plenty of rooms available " he replied ."I promise you wouldn't even know I'm there , I'll be gone before you know it " she said and he nodded."That's alright " Xavier whispered and Miguel
"I'm so disappointed in you!!""Olivia !" Ariel called in tears as she stood up from the bed immediately ."I'm sorry " she whispered as she wrapped her hands around Olivia's body from behind."I don't know what got into me , I was grieving I didn't know how to handle it " she replied."If someone told me earlier today that you would do this to your Mom, I'd bet my life that you wouldn't" Olivia said."You cried this morning Ariel !""And it took Ma'am Belinda and I to console you !" "Just because you wanted your mom to witness today " she said calmly."Have you forgotten the days you were considering postponing the wedding till she's awake ?!" She whispered."I'm sorry " Ariel cried and Olivia slowly turned to face her as Ariel let go of her slowly "She didn't deserve any of these words you said to her " she said."That she just woke up from the coma aside ,""Have you forgotten how she suffered just to make sure we're happy and comfortable?!" She said."Do you even remember how ex
Ariel just closed her eyes tightly as tears dropped from them . Her Mom wasn't someone to keep hammering on things unless she was really hurt.She couldn't even start to imagine how deeply she must have hurt her Mom as she kept insisting on the same thing with tears dropping from her eyes as she talked.Right now she just wanted to smack herself really hard for all she said.She wished she could turn back the hands of time and go back to earlier and maybe gave a different reaction.She wished she could just undo her actions and free her mom of Whatever pain she was feeling right now.She knew it was easy for her mom to say she forgives her but she knew it wouldn't that easy for her to forget."I love you so much Mom" she whispered."I would never want you dead ""If you're dead my life is pretty much over " she said."I sat at your bed everyday praying and crying that you come back to me ""I never want to see you dead Mom " she whispered."It didn't seem like that to me earlier " he
"So his Mom asked you to marry him?!" Miranda asked as they ate and Ariel nodded."Yes " Ariel said as they nodded."How exactly did you guys meet?!" She asked."Weeks after you got shoot I was on my way to see you " "And then I decided to do grocery first " "I saw her there , wobbly walking and all and then I decided to help her ""She looked like she was going to faint any minute" "Some days later she contacted me again and told me about it " "You should have just left her to die " Miranda mumbled but they heard her anyways."Mom!" Ariel and Olivia called simultaneously."Just go on " she replied and Ariel looked at her with uncertainty before continuing."I refused initially but when your bills got higher and we could no longer keep up , I decided to do it " she said."Olivia tried to convince me otherwise but my mind was already made up " she said."You didn't want to ask my brother ?!" Miranda asked and she shook her head."He doesn't care , he didn't even bother to show his
Three weeks later ....."Will all the matriculating students rise as we take the school pledge " And Olivia stood up with a small smile as she turned to look at Miguel and the others where they were seated and Miguel blew her a kiss.She dramatically caught it and placed it on her chest as she turned back to face the stage and she joined in with the pledge.****"Congratulations baby " Miguel said to her as he pulled her into an hug immediately they were done with the matriculation program."Thank you baby " she replied with a wide smile."Mama " Michaela called excitedly as she ran up to her ."Aww , my baby " she said as she picked her from the floor and swirled her as she giggled happily and she dropped her."Congratulations Bestie , I'm very happy for you " Ariel said as she pulled her into an hug."I love you " she added ."Congrats " Xavier said as he hugged her too."Thank you Xavier " she said."My baby " Miranda said as she walked up to her ."I'm super proud of you ""Thank
Liam's residence...."Listen , your sister is still alive " Rise said to Liam."You don't mean it !" He replied."I saw her with my own eyes today !" She replied."But we seem to be safe though , she has Amnesia" she said."Still we need to act fast ""After what Mia did , I don't think we can trust her again""We can't even trust her " he added and she nodded ."So now what do you plan to do next ?!" She asked."Hmm "" The past few days got me thinking really deeply " he said and I've come up with just the perfect plan " he said."But for now " he murmured and moved closer to her ""I missed you " he murmured."Your dad is upstairs!" She said immediately and he laughed "You lie , he already left " he said and they bursted out laughing."So you missed me " she asked as she moved closer to him."Hm hm" he replied as he placed his lips on hers and she giggled as they kissed."Rose ?!!" Xavier called as he barged into the house and she jumped on the chair immediately and stood up "Xav
"I do " she whispered immediately."Is my Mom really dead ?!" She asked in a whisper and Carl nodded slowly."She is " he whispered and she bursted out wailing."I'm sorry " he said as he pulled her into an hug ."Liam is such a bastard " she said after some minutes of crying."He has said it and he did it " she murmured."He killed our mothers, my own innocent mother !!" She said as tears began to fall from her face again."Now you can bring him to book " Carl said and she nodded."Him , my dad and Rose !" She whispered."They'll all suffer for what they did to me !" She replied."Rose ?!""Did you just say Rose ?!" Carl asked."Yes , Rose !" She replied ."Oh my God Xavier needs to hear this " he said as he picked up his phone and put a call across to Xavier immediately.Meanwhile 7:00 pm ...At The Dunlop's Residence ....Xavier slowly walked to the rooftop of the house and took his seat on the wall way up there, turning to face outside, any small push could send him flying downsta
"What ?!!!" Xavier and Ariel chorused immediately.And the two women turned to look at them immediately."How dare you insinuate I'm cheating on my husband" Belinda growled."Whether you are or whether you're not , I don't really care ""All I care about is my daughter meeting with her father and getting the recognition she deserves!!" She replied."Your daughter is meeting no one !" Belinda said."She won't get a dime of what my son has worked for!" She said."Not every one is as shallow as you Belinda""My daughter doesn't need Anders or his money!!" She replied ."She just deserves to know who her father is !" She said."Anders can never be her father !!" Belinda said."Anders has only one child the whole world knows and that's Xavier !!" Belinda said and Miranda laughed."Then explain to me , why some months ago you offered me money just so that I don't talk to Anders about Ariel!""If you knew she wasn't his daughter why did you offer me money to go far away and not come into you
"What ?!!!" Everyone one of them yelled even Olivia ."This is bullshit !!" Ariel said immediately and she stood up."I'm out of here" she said and picked up her bag and stormed towards the door."Dude !! " Miguel said and Xavier stood up immediately and ran to her."Look I was drunk , I didn't know what I was doing ""I had no idea what I was doing, I was highly intoxicated " he said and he held her hands.She snatched her hands from him and turned to face him."So You have the right to cheat on me , because you were drunk?!""So after I left your house yesterday , she didn't leave , she was still there ?!" She said."You know after Miguel's speech , I was considering forgiving you ""Because ofcourse you're only human and we all make mistakes " she said."But this ?! Fucking your ex ?!""It wasn't a mistake Xavier , it's a choice you made !""Something you chose to do and I can't live with it !!" She said and wiped the teras on her face."I'm sorry , I was drunk I mistook her for yo
Later in the day .....10:00 am ..."I'm sorry for speaking to you rudely yesterday " Xavier said to Miguel over the phone "That's alright," he replied."She's leaving this morning" he said."She's packing her things already " he said and Miguel nodded."Okay ""What's done is done there's no need to cry over spilled milk " he said and Xavier nodded slowly."Did Ariel agree to come here ?!""What did Olivia say " Xavier asked."She'll be coming in by one clock today " Miguel replied and Xavier looked up to see Rose dragging her bag downstairs."Thank you , let's all meet at your office today , we need to talk " he said."What's going on , what happened that it's so important we have to talk ?!" He asked."It's not an over the phone conversation Miguel, once we see later today we'll talk " he said ."Okay now , I need to go I have a session in a few minutes " he said."Thank you man," Xavier replied."See you later " he added."Yeah " Miguel replied and ended the call."I'm leaving no
7:00 pm ..."Oh my God" Xavier murmured as he staggered inside the house "Xavier " Rose called at once as she stood up and limped towards him, holding the chair for support."You're drunk " she Said"Drunk ?!" He replied with a tut."I'm not drunk " he replied "What is wrong with you ?!!" She asked as she wrapped her hands around his waist and placed his hands over his neck as they both staggered to the largest sofa in the living room."I'm perfectly fine " he replied with a small laugh."I'm good " he added."You don't look good " she replied as she stood up about to walk away and get him water , the expression in his face changed immediately."Ariel " he whispered as he held her hands ."I'm not ... " She tried to say but he interrupted her."Ariel please don't walk away " "Listen to me " he said."And she slowly walked back and sat on the chair beside him.""I didn't mean to kiss her " he whispered."I don't know what came over me " he said ."Do you still love her ?!"

1:00 pm ..."What's wrong dear " Miranda asked as Ariel sluggishly walked into the house and Ariel slowly turned to look at her."I'm fine Mom" she replied."Really?!""You don't look fine to me ""Are you thinking about Xavier again?!" Miranda asked ."We were already making progress right " She added and Ariel slowly walked to her and sat beside her on the chair.She slowly leaned in and wrapped her hands around her Mom and rested her head in her bossom."What's going on ?!" Miranda whispered."Just let me stay like this Mom" she said as she closed her eyes and Miranda slowly reached for her arms and slowly caressed it ."I'll be fine Mom " she whispered as she finally raised her head."You can talk to me dear " Miranda said and Ariel smiled."It's nothing important " she replied."I'll be fine actually " she said."See ," she said as she raised her hands and showed it to her mother."Ohh, you returned the ring " She said and Ariel nodded slowly."Probably why I'm feeling the way I
Meanwhile 9:30am Xavier's Residence..."Good Morning" Xavier greeted as he walked into the room was staying."What are you doing ?!" He asked immediately he saw her removing the bandages on her legs and he quickly let go of the door and walked towards her."Good Morning" she whispered calmly."I'm trying to see if I can walk on my own without the bandages , " she said."I'm beginning to feel like a liability here , I need to leave " she said."Look , it's even still swollen " he said as he took the bandages from her hands and began to wrap it back."How about I just take you to the hospital so you can get treatments once and for all " he said."After my accident, it has been traumatic going to the hospital" she replied."I'm sorry " he said and he cipped the bandage immediately he was done wrapping it."All done " he said "Come on let me help you downstairs" he said."I made breakfast" he added as he wrapped his hands her shoulders and lifted her up."Atleast you can standup and at
