After the shock revelation from Mercy, I almost lost my mind, I need to hear it from the culprit's mouth, I know my mom is not the best woman on earth but l never knew she was that heartless to kill her grandchild my flesh and blood, I drove like a mad man to the cheap flat she has settled too, I did not bother knocking I kicked the door open, I can’t dirty my hands.
I trudged in with a heavy heart I found her eating something smelling like chicken yet the was no chicken on her plate, serves her well, “ you killed my child” I growled at her, she dropped the spoon she was holding on the floor, fear was visible in her eyes, I laughed like a mad man “ you are not going to deny it, I thought you will deny and lie to me like you always do, how could you your flesh and blood?” my hands were itching to grab her and separate her head from her shoulders.
“I didn’t know he was your child I swear I just wanted to punish

Tom“ I told you to tell her truth earlier, are you happy now? I lost my friend" Grace said accusingly, she has been crying ever since Mercy kicked us out of her room, I regret not telling her the truth, I regret even more for being a coward back then, thinking of the trauma, pain and cruelty she suffered alone in prison makes my skin crawl, how could a human being be this cruel a woman to another woman, and that good for nothing idiot who couldn’t even protect his own flesh and blood.I left the hospital in a fit of anger, I was angry towards myself, towards Devin and his mom and that slut, in order not to think too much I drowned myself in work, after work I’d pass by the hospital, Mercy still refused to see me, I was ashamed for lying to her, I figured I should give her space but a divorce that will never happen.Grace called “ Tom Mercy disappeared” she said anxiously “what” my world fel

Mercy “ Devin” I cried out his name when I woke up, I remember him taking a bullet for me, everyone was in my ward except for him is he dead? I saw disappointment, hurt, and anger flash through Tom's eyes. “here” he stretched out his hand with a brown envelope I took it with shaking hands, he looked at me one last time before he vacated the room, everyone’s eyes were in me disapprovingly. I opened the letter /dear Mercy I’m sorry I hurt you, if I didn’t become part of your life you wouldn’t go through what you went through, I realized that I didn’t love you enough when your husband jumped in to take a bullet for you when he believed you when I didn’t, he loves you with every fiber of his bones, I am leaving for good this time hopefully I will find me another you.

The povI came back from jogging all sweaty and smelly, I ran to our apartment humming a tune that I created in my mind, weird right?It's funny because I can't sing to save my life but I have always loved music, it brings life to the depressed me, I have been suffering from depression for as long as I can remember, but it got worse after my first heartbreak, coming from a middle-class family, you can't go around wasting money paying a therapist, or visiting Doctors for regular check-ups Doctor don't have to diagnose me, the signs are Crystal clear, the lack of interest in life is a huge sign, the failed suicide attempts tick all the boxes of a depressed soul, the suicidal thoughts even after failing to end my life a couple of times.Music has been there for me it helps me cope with everything that is happening around me, not that I pay attention to the world or anything else, I tend to tune everyone and everything off.I reached my ap

I watched Mercy stuff her face with food, this girl can be a handful sometimes, I looked at her intensely, remembering our heated kiss session earlier.No scratch that, her confession meant everything to me, at least she is not shutting me out like before, I can see that her walls are slowly but surely falling, I just want to protect and love her, she deserves to be loved, there's nothing not to love about her she's just so easy to love.She said she loves me and always will, I know she's trying that's better than nothing, she is so adorable with her cheeks full of food if it was another normal time and day I would have laughed but now I am trying to be stern she has a habit of skipping breakfast.I asked her to slow down before the food choke her, she rolled her eyes, even a blind person can smell the smoke emitting from her nose and ears, no matter how late she wakes up she's always punctual at school, something about avoiding being the center of attention

Mercy's povMy day was going well until some girl decided to sit beside me in my last class, she was so babbling as if she knows me, I did I'm what good at, avoided her, gave her the silent treatment, she did not seem to mind though, the more I gave her a cold shoulder the more chatty she was.I ended up losing my temper " don't you know how to interpret gestures?" I yelled at her which invited attention to us, she looked at me and smirked a little before mouthing " nice one dragon keep the fire coming".The lecturer asked if have a problem, I wanted to scream damn yes, please move the chatterbox next to me, but come to think of it the lecturer would not, I saw a slight smile playing on his lips when I lost my temper instead of being vexed he smiled, that didn't make sense to me.I rolled my eyes" he likes you" the Barbie doll next to me disturbed my peace once again, I breathe in slowly" do you ever get tired of talking " she chuckled.

DevinI don’t know who keeps on making trouble for my companies, whoever it is, he’s intelligent than the people I’ve come across ever since I became a CEO, so I’m back in Johannesburg and the first person I want to see is Mercy I terribly miss her though she’s cold towards me, I trekked to her office with a big smile on my face, wondering if she had noticed my absence, does she still care like before.I reached her office door in no time when I was about to knock I saw her chatting with a blond woman, they were both engrossed in their chart and did not see me, “ you glowing, I see the weekend getaway did you good" the blond woman teased her, “ ow you don’t want to know, but I’ll tell you anyway it was heaven, I was so relaxed and forgot about everything, just me and Tom spending time together and you know" Mercy winked at her friend.I felt a heart-wrenching pain in my chest, she’s ha

MercyI was woken up by the rays of the sun, peeking through the white curtains, I smiled images of last night playing in my head, after that hot session of love making last night. Tom made us something to eat we were both tired yet full of life and anticipation of what we will do next, which was making love in our bed all night long, till I couldn’t open my legs, they were shaking.“You awake, come downstairs Antony and Maria are waiting for you downstairs, said Tom walking by my side and peck my forehead, his eyes were smiling “ you look like you woke up early" I commented snuggling in his arms, “ I woke up 3 hours ago, lazy cat" I gasped and he laughed.I checked the time and realized that it was 9a.m we slept in late last night, let me rephrase that this morning and yet he is up and energetic while I feel like I’ve been hit by a train, I dragged my tired body out of the bed and took a quick

TomWe were quietly eating, I made us a scrumptious meal, it was her favorite meal she ate a little then stopped, that bothered me, she wasn’t talking like she usually does, nor eating like she should “ something wrong with the food?” I asked her, I think she’s mad at me about the clothes, my lips twitched slightly, she raised her head “ it’s good” she replied in a bored tone.“Why are you not eating then?” I raised an eyebrow waiting for an answer, she stood up “ I’m full" she walked away, I suppose back to our bedroom, I sighed she’s stubborn and cute, my lips turned up, my daughter will definitely look like her, and hopefully she’ll be cute and stubborn like her mom, she’ll be the only thing left behind for me by her if she doesn’t make it, I want our baby to be her replica, that will sooth my heart, I'm beginning to accept her

MercyI opened my eyes, to find myself in a foreign place, I surveyed the place thoroughly thinking that maybe I am hallucinating, I was in a fantasy world, I have never seen a heart shaped bed before, dusty pink walls and lots of chandeliers on the ceiling. I blinked thinking that maybe I am dreaming, why am I in this place, where’s Tom, could it be that someone kidnapped me? If that’s the case why are they being nice to me, to provide such a beautiful room.I quickly jumped off the bed, and the blankets fell on the carpet, I was wearing fluffy pink pajamas, who could have changed my clothes, I began to be anxious, the door was pulled open, there he was Tom wearing a white transparent shirt and khaki pants, he stood by the door folding his arms on his chest looking at me with worry mixed with a slight smile on his eyes, his lips curved a little.“ Sleeping beauty is fi
