*****
Walking to the bedroom, Tom stopped to look at the card and paper in his hand before turning to also look at his father. Shaking his head, he pinched himself to check if it was a dream.
Feeling the pain of his action, he knew it was not a dream and he felt overwhelmed.
‘Who would have known that he had a real father somewhere and that meeting him would erase all the sufferings he had endured as a kid and change his life for the better?’ Tom was thinking hard as he packed his few clothes inside his backpack.
Zipping his bag, he looked upward to the heavens, and sent a word of thanks to his dead Mum who was probably watching over them.
Walking back to the sitting room where his father was still seated, staring at nothing, Tom decided when and if he should come back to the house, he would have to find a way of making his father’s life more interesting and

This man is really impossible.’ Liza fumed as she toyed with her food while stifling a glance at Mike.Mike was aware of the constant glare Liza was sending him but he decided to play it by ear and act unconcerned. He knew she was curious to know if he meant his words of affection.But having denied her own feelings immediately after confessing her love, he wanted her to suffer a bit, wondering if he was also teasing her.“Ahem!” Liza coughed to draw his attention but he barely spared her a glance.“Drink water, dear.” Mike told her while burying his face in his plate to hide his humour.“Cough, cough and more cough.” Liza went wild with her drama, determined to get Mike’s attention.“Take more water, dear, Bless y

A little bit of craziness is allowed in love…*****“Oh Mike, I love you so much.” She told him.“I know.” Mike replied smugly.Shocked because she had believed she did a good job in hiding her feelings, Liza drew back to look into Mike’s eyes.“You knew? Since when?” Liza demanded to know, angry to think she was so transparent.“Why are you angry, babe?” Mike asked as he held onto her tensed body.“Answer the damn question Mike.” Liza gritted her teeth.“Well, I suspected after we started making love because I don’t think any woman could do so much with a man she did not care about but I became so sure today after you told me you loved me even though you tried to wave it off with words.” Mike explained in puzzlement when he again felt Liza’s body relaxing on his hands.

Plenty of love and a little of war can be fun…*******About to flounce out of the room, leaving Mike to stew in his annoyance, Liza hissed.“And where in hell do you think you are going?” Mike demanded as he grabbed her arms.“To the bathroom.” Liza shouted into his face.“Don’t you dare walk out on me, I won’t tolerate it.” Mike told her in a cold voice.“And who the hell are you to tell me what to do?” Liza returned in a cold tone.“The man who loves you enough to want to give you the world.” Mike told her.“Then why are we fighting?” Liza asked in an emotional small voice.“I don’t know, Liza, I only know I’m different when I’m with you, you drive me s

To investigate a criminal, think like one...*******Hiding inside an abandoned building opposite the supermarket, investigative officer Mark wondered for the tenth time if he was at the right place and doing the right thing.Having been told the guy he had been all over the country searching for was in town and had been seen entering the supermarket so many times to buy groceries, Mark had decided to stake a stage out, knowing sooner or later, Tom would come back again to get his groceries.‘After all, food is important and he definitely could not do without it.’ Mark thoughtfully concluded.Cussing at his luck, he fervently wished he had been in town a day earlier than he came, then he was sure he would have gotten the guy by now and all he had to do was take him back to London with him and claim the huge balance he was expecting from the powerful Mike Stanford.Talking of Mike, he brought out

A condescending attitude is unattractive…******Walking to the biggest diamond mall in London city, Liza was overwhelmed as she held tightly to Mike’s arms.“Nervous?” Mike asked softly when he heard a little sigh of awe from Liza.“Uh, no, I mean yes, yes I’m a bit nervous. I’m not used to so much grandness, so seeing all these is a bit too much for me. Besides, while I honestly knew I’m the marrying motherly type, I don’t think I ever expected to be this lucky.” Liza told him honestly.Mike stopped and Liza was forced to also stop abruptly too as he turned to look into her eyes.“What do you mean by lucky.” Mike asked.Liza was a bit edgy as she bit on her lips with tiny pearl teeth.“Well, ain’t I lucky? Here I am, an ordinary girl with an ordinary position, in love and getting engaged to a rich power

A good woman is worth more than gold… ******* Assembling the rings in front of Mike and Liza, the proprietor gave a discreet nod for the staff to leave, leaving only him behind to attend to whatever question they may have. When Liza saw the array of diamonds and golds, she could not help it, she gave a gasp and the proprietor smiled, pleased with her reaction. Mike chuckled, “Mr. Spaniards, it seems my woman is impressed by your markets, I applaud you.” Mike interjected smoothly. “Thank you, Mr. Stanford, we aim to please.” He replied humbly. “Good.” Mike replied before turning his metallic gaze on Liza. “Now, let’s take a look at these, babe. I’m thinking we should go for diamonds or which do you prefer?” Mike asked softly. “Are...are they...very expensive?” Liza tried to as

History can never be underrated…******Seeing an opportunity to punish this man for his condescending manner earlier, Liza raised a brow and the man was forced to continue.“The legend has it that any woman...who wears this ring...will never get tired of her husband, she will…she will… always have em…have stamina for him and his activities in the bedroom...” He stopped with a deep frown as if he has forgotten the rest of the story.“And?” Liza did not spare him.“Ah ah ah. Em, the legend has it they will have twins and multiples.” The man blushed charmingly as he quickly finished the story.Unable to hold it together, Liza laughed and the man quickly jumped up.“Em, if you will excuse me, sir, madam, I saw my manager signaling for my attention.

A woman loves a kind man…*****Having a cup of coffee after their lunch, Liza glanced at Mike and when she saw his questioning look, she got up.Moving to sit on his lap, she kissed his forehead.“I love you so much, Mike, thank you.”“Not that I don’t appreciate this, don’t misquote me but may I know as to why you have been acting so soft all day?”“I am always soft towards you, Mike.” Liza objected softly.“Sure but today is very much obvious and if you check below my belt, you will see my man also agrees down there.” Mike insisted.“Your man is always agreeing with whatever I do, Mike. It is in love with me, so that does not count.” Liza objected with a laugh.“You may be right, but I still t

A good ending for all… ****** Two weeks Later, Mike sent a bunch of flowers to Tom’s room at the hospital, having heard he was responding to treatment and would soon be discharged. He had also heard that with the help of his father’s team, his father was flown to London to be with his son at his critical moment. Mike felt for them but he knew they would get through it and survive together. That’s just life! It will throw you but if you are willing to stand again, everything will work out. Liza had heard him on the phone when he was ordering for the flowers and she had thought the flowers were to wish Tom a quick recovery and to also cheer him up. But only Mike knew that the real reason he sent the beautiful bunch of flowers was to silently thank Tom for indirectly bringing them back together. By pointing out some home truths to Liza, he made her see what she should have known, ‘That Mike would always be there for her’. For that alone, it shows the guy had some redeeming trait

We all deserve genuine love… ****** For long moments, they looked into each other’s eyes with trusting eyes that suddenly turned passionate. Mike’s eyes flared with a knowing light and Liza gave an unconscious gasp. Mike grinned as he lightly pushed her to continue walking to the car! “You always seem to be surprised every time I make my love and passion obvious, why?” He had always wanted to ask her. “I don’t know, Mike. Maybe because I never truly believed you could really love me, so I am always surprised when I see the evidence of it.” She admitted softly. Mike did not say anything to that as he opened the door for her to go in. Then he circled the car to join her and only then did he turn to look at her. “But that’s bullshit, babe. I have been showing you nothing but my love since we started dating.” Mike reminded her. “I know, Mike, but I guess it was just hard for me to believe and understand. I mean, I grew up without knowing much love, so how would I have recognized i

Give an option of doubt…*****Putting the phone back into his pocket, Mike turned to go back to Liza and that was when he saw her, watching him with a dazed look.“You heard everything, right?” Tiredly, he asked her, unable to hide it again.Liza nodded slowly.“I am sorry, Liza, but it is not what you think. I can explain, okay?” Mike was worried she might misunderstand.Again, Liza nodded slowly.“I am sure you have a reasonable explanation Mike and I promise to listen without judging you.” Liza acknowledged softly.Relieved, Mike nodded as he walked to her.“Thank you. I promise to tell you everything without hiding a word.” He embraced her soft body to him, knowing that he needed the warmth.Liza accepted his words and actions with a smile as she returned his embrace.******The following morning, Liza and Mike walked out of the old building with Martha who was holding tightly to the purple eyed, immensely bruised Tom.His left eyes were almost closed and Liza feared he might nev

Be honest with your loved ones… ******* What happened the next moment was so sudden, Mike was sure he was about to have a heart failure. “Oh my God—Oh my God—-Oh my God.” Liza kept crying. Recovering himself, Mike quickly left his seat to hold onto her shoulders. “Liza? Are you okay? Talk to me.” He saw the distressful emotion she was in and he could not bear it. It’s a fact that whatever affected Liza would get to Mike. Her joy and sadness were equally part of him. “I totally forgot, Mike. I did not mean to, but I forgot. I am a bad person. A very bad evil lady.” She cried softly while holding onto him. “Whatever it is Liza, we will get through it together, but I will not accept any disparaging word on your person. You are not a bad person and neither are you evil. So right now, I want you to take a deep breath and tell me what this is all about.” A little bit calmed by Mike’s reasonable voice, Liza took a calming breath. “It’s Tom, Mike, I totally forgot about him.” Liza exp

Apologies don't make you less of a man… **** Helping each other to dress up four hours later after a short nap on his office sofa bed, Liza sent a smug smile across to Mike. “You need to apologise to your staff Mike, they did not deserve the treatments you have been melting out on them.” Liza pointed out and Mike groaned. He did not have to ask Liza, he should have known Stella would tell her all about it. “I am serious, Mike, you need to apologise. Just imagine if any of your staff is acting unprofessional just because they are going through a lot at home. Would you accept that, even if you try to be understanding towards their plight?” Liza demanded to know. “I am the boss, Liza, it is different.” He pointed out arrogantly, trying to cover up. but he knew she was right. ‘That’s the thing about Liza, she was always almost right.’ He thought fondly with another groan. “No Mike, there is nothing different about it. They are humans and if you are truly the man I know you to be, I

A forgiving spirit is a kind one…*******Typing furiously away at her system while equally muttering furiously to herself, Stella was not aware of the person at her desk until she heard a chuckle which made her jump in fright.“Is the building on fire or what?” Liza asked with an amused gaze while watching the different emotions flashing across the face of her former senior colleague.“Liza Stanford, you scared me.” Stella cried, turning her full glare on the innocent Liza.“Uh oh wow, take it easy with the glare okay? I’m innocent of whatever the crime was.” Chuckling, she raised her hands in mock surrender.Stella snorted, unimpressed.Innocent her foot! Whatever their boss was going through, Stella knew Liza had a hand in it and even if it’s not in Stella’s place to say it out loud, she just hoped they could settle whatever it was between them.Having been married for several years now, she knew it was not always smooth sailing between couples.Just look at her and her husband Leo

Correct your mistakes once you know it… ******At the other end, Liza kept staring at the silent phone in her hand. Mike had dropped the call. Without telling her it was a joke. Which meant that truly, he was pushing for a divorce? ‘No way! Over my dead body.’ She swore violently as she ran to the bathroom. Almost tearing off the clothes on her body, she hurriedly lathered the washing clothes with soap as she switched on the shower, full blast. Dressing with haste, five minutes later, Liza was walking down the stairs, smartly dressed in one of her office clothes. But before she could cover the last step, one of the maids walked in from the hallway to greet her respectfully. “Good afternoon, Mrs. Stanford.” “Good afternoon Mary. I am on my way out and I might not be back for a while.” She said in a distracted tone while checking her bag to make certain she had all she wanted. “Oh okay Madam, but I was just on my way upstairs to tell you there is a visitor at the door asking fo

A disappointed heart is always heavy…****Glaring fiercely at the door of his office, willing any of his staff to walk through the door so he could at least have an excuse to vent his frustrations, his eyes caught the favourite coffee mug on his table and picking it up, he threw it violently at the wall and the smashing sound gave him a momentary satisfaction.At that exact moment, the Head of Sales Department was on his way to discuss the latest marketing pitch with the boss after deciding to brave the lion’s then. Even his colleagues had teased him when he casually told them he was in to see the boss.There had been teasing calls about his head and they had all laughed, saying by the time Mike Stanford was done blasting him off, his considered small head would become bigger as it rolled on the floor. Someone had even said he was sure he would come out without his tongue in his mouth.Of course, he had scoffed disdainfully, not giving them the chance to see his fear.Only the Head o

The surprise package…*****Liza dismissed the maid and, turning with a determined step, she hurriedly walked to the door just as the person pressed the bell again. Liza groaned ferociously as she pulled the chain from the back of the door.“Who the hell are you that you want to bring down the whole house just to get what you want?” Liza blasted the person with furious eyes even before the door was completely open.The short bald man that was standing at the door blinked owlishly up at her, surprised by the unexpected attack.“I—I didn’t--hmm aha…” The man stopped coughing slightly but when he took a little glance up, he saw Liza was still furious, so he dropped his eyes to try again.“I—I’m—sorry madam. I was just trying to do my job.” He stammered in a voice that was a bit scared.Liza glared the more upon hearing this silly talk. “Excuse me? You mean your job is to disturb my peace?” “No—No—of—course not, madam. I was just trying to get the attention of whoever is in the house.” H
