“So I was wondering if you could get me one." Anna mumbled in her softest voice.
“I am not getting you a tripod for tiktok Anna."I couldn't believe I was even saying the words. How did a sick girl, who could barely even walk, want a tripod so she could make tik tok videos? My sister just had to be a crazy person.“Oh common Raya," she whined loudly, hitting her fists beside her on the bed. “It's just to have some fun," she murmured, folding her arms with pouting lips. “I may never get to do it anyway.”She whispered the last part to herself but my ears picked on it. I shot her a glare, throwing the ice cream spoon into the half eaten cup. “Anna Rivera Chaste!" I called loudly and sternly, just like Mom did when she was furious.She turned to me, shocked that I had heard her. “Don't you dare say those words ever again." My voice grew progressively higher with ever word I said.I noticed the sadness in her eyes before she loo“Raya I…”"You should leave Rain.” I interrupted sternly. “Please Raya," his eyes were as tender as his voice. He took a few steps away from the door, coming closer to me. “I know I'm a jerk and I don't even deserve to be near you," he went on, gradually closing up the space between us. “But please hear me out." he begged. By this time, he was a few steps away from me. I couldn't tell what I wanted. Five minutes ago, I didn't want to even hear his voice, but now it was all I wanted to hear. “Fine,” I obliged after a long internal battle. I watched his eyes lighten up. Turning to Anna, I noticed she had a sheepish grin. I stylishly rolled my eyes at her, fighting my urge to smile too. “I'll be back soon." I muttered. "Take your time,” she blurted excitedly. "I won't be going anywhere anyway.” She burst into a laugh that quickly spread across the room. Soon enough we were all giggling lightly, including Rain. I nodde
For the days I was on my period, I felt bad for neglecting David. As soon as I was sure I was done, I didn't want to wait one more second before I let him know. Unlike his son, he was very commanding. A man who knew what he wanted, and made sure he got it. I loved it. I loved being controlled, only while we did it anyway. I confidently strolled into the Tetra household, flinging my purse on the white couch before I headed into the kitchen for a drink. The weather was unusually hot and regardless of the shorts I had on, I craved something chilled. “Hi Tess," I muttered with a smile when I noticed her. “Hello Raya," she replied with a sweet smile. Tess seemed to be the only kind person in the whole household. She didn't speak much, kept to herself and always wore a warm smile. She reminded me of my grandmother before she passed. Although she wasn't that old, somehow I was sure she had grandkids. “Can I please get a glass of cold juice?
“Don't come in, Tess!" David yelled, turning to me and giving a short nod. With a stupid grin, I resumed sucking him off. I was a little mad that I had to start from the beginning. It was like climbing a ladder. He was almost at the top, heard Tess's voice, fell, and now I have to help me up those stairs again. “The madam is home," we heard Tess's voice again. This time I wasn't the only one that froze. “She wants to know what she should bring to you." I saw the panic behind David's eyes as he lifted me by my hair. I quietly winced in pain. “Sorry," he whispered immediately. “Tell her I'll be down instead, Tess." "Yes sir.” He hastily shoved his dick into his trousers, but there was a bigger problem, it was still rock hard. We shared a quick glance. If he went down like this, Chyna will definitely know something is up. If he didn't go down, she would come up, and his rod didn't look like it was about to retire anytime soon.
“Raya?" The surprise in David's voice was the same shock that was in my face as I crouched under the table. "What about Raya?”"I found out that her sister is not actually sick,” she muttered calmly. My hand immediately flew to my mouth when I almost let out my gasp. The silence from David showed he was as shocked as I was at her blatant lie. “Her sister? Her sister Anna?" David stuttered, fighting to keep his voice under control."Yes, that's her name,” when I thought I couldn't get any more flabbergasted, I did. She didn't even know my sister's name yet she was lying about her condition. David sat up in his chair, leaning both elbows on the table. “Are you sure of this?" from his gravelly tone, I could sense the irritation that was creeping in. “Don't you trust me dear?" Answering the question with a question. She was good, but David knew she was lying. He's been at the hospital, he's seen her doctor reports, the doctor is
I made my way down the stairs after sneaking out of David's study. There was a very big grin on my face and it was for all the right reasons, well, to me anyway. Some of you may have contradictory opinions but who cares, right? After telling me he knew his wife was lying through her teeth, David went on to assure me that I didn't need her job. All I needed to be was his and he was going to get me whatever I needed, whenever I needed it. He was a blank cheque that I could cash any time I felt like. My joy knew no bounds. He gave me more reasons to stick around, solidifying my resolve that I made the right choice by keeping our activities away from Chyna. What was half a million dollars compared to a blank cheque worth much more? Absolutely nothing. “There you are," my thoughts were interrupted by Chyna's stern voice. She was behind me as I headed to the kitchen to quench my thirst from sucking off her husband. “I've been looking for you,” she muttered when I turned to face h
As promised, David sent me monetary value compensation for his wife's actions. Not only that, he called to apologize for her unruly behavior and name-calling. However, she was far from forgiven. I did a short trip to the store for some items, especially food items, for Anna and I. I also got her the tripod I promised. No doubt she'll be excited when I give it to her. I also got myself a new single chair to replace the old, creaky one. I basically went bonkers at the store. Shopping recklessly because I had no budget at all. It was something I had never done before and it felt absolutely amazing. I headed home first so the couch could be delivered. On the way, I got a message from Rain. He was also on the way to my apartment, but I was going to arrive before him. I started to think about painting his beloved mother in a bad light. I wasn't sure if I could fiddle with him like I fiddled his father, but I was going to tread carefully until I found out. I also had to
"So she fired you simply because we've been seeing each other?!” I didn't think he was going to take it this deeply but it absolutely thrilled me to see him scream in anger. Anger at his mother. I started to work up a smile but it was too soon. I wasn't done yet. I hadn't even started.“Yes,” once again, I looked away from him. "She said you told her about us.” His hands flew off my waist. I could tell he was getting more furious. "I was drunk!” He bellowed regretfully. "I tell her something personal and she goes right ahead to stab me in the back with it!”Watching him express his emotions gave me a burst of confidence. “She went ahead to ban me from visiting the home," I went on in a low whiny voice. “She even called me a whore." At the last word, he flipped. “She did what?" he growled. A low, gravelly, terrifying tone I had never heard him use before.I instantly wished I had not mentioned that. I didn't even realize I had
Our chests rose and fell rhythmically as we heaved, gasping for air. Sex with Rain always left me breathless. He had all the energy his father didn't have, or used to have, stored up in his muscles. Plus he worked out so it was perfect. Anytime I imagined letting him go, I couldn't bear the thought of him in the arms of another, making her sweat and taking her ability to breath. No. I wasn't going to let that happen. The image of all the groceries I bought from the store, on the floor and kitchen counter, sat me up from beside Rain. I also had to visit Anna with the items I got for her. So much to do, but I was so tired. I was burnt out. My jaw ached and my thighs ached. I don't have to say what from, you should know. I felt fingers crawl up my back. My neck lazily swerved to the side, instantly sedated from his touch. My plans of getting up to arrange my apartment were crumpled up and discarded like a worthless piece of paper. I lay back down, catching a glimpse
“Maya, could you fetch the diapers on the next aisle?" The bubbly bright eyed blonde turned to me with a charming smile. “How many of them?" At her question, I looked down at the little human strapped to my chest. She slept peacefully, oblivious to the troubles of the world, or her mother's indecisiveness. “I honestly don't know,” I mumbled when my eyes reconnected with Maya's. "Anna has been eating a lot lately.” Pushing the almost filled shopping cart in my direction, she laughed. "She's a healthy baby, healthy babies poop a lot.”I glanced at my sleeping baby again. Fighting with the urge to rub my fingers over her chubby, smooth cheek, I smiled widely. I absolutely adored her. She was perfect. Ever since she came into my life, I couldn't imagine ever wanting to get rid of her. She was my whole world. “Well, this healthy baby needs to hurry up and start paying some bills." Maya burst into a loud laugh at my joke. I laughe
The miserable seconds turned into miserable minutes, that turned into miserable hours, that turned into miserable days, as I laid on my bed in my dark, smelly apartment. I didn't know when it was day or night since the drapes were shut tightly. My heart was as dark as the rooms, my stomach as empty as my fridge. I lay quietly, waiting for death, hoping it'll come any day now, but it didn't. Somehow my eyes kept opening each time it seemed like they were going to close forever. I stared at the small Urn that stood on the other side of my bed. I couldn't exactly see it, but I knew it was there. Its shiny body occasionally glistened in the darkness. It was Anna's new body. I spoke to her. Every time my eyes opened, I sighed and said hello to her. I told her about everything I did. I told her about David, about Rain. I told her about Chyna, about Katy. I told her about Maya, about Devin. She didn't judge me. She didn't cuss at me or remind me how much of a terrible person that
The loud, rapid beeping sounds from Anna's vital monitor pierced through my subconscious, instantly waking me up from my deep slumber. My heavy eyes flung wide open, my weak legs pushing my aching body to my throbbing feet. The intense panic that clawed its way to my windpipe was enough to numb every other pain that my body felt. I noticed Anna laid completely still, her chest wasn't rising and falling like it did before I slept off. “Nurse!" I screamed so loudly, I hoped it would wake her. She remained still.In a heartbeat, my weak legs mustered up enough energy to run. I headed straight for the door, pushing through it like a hurricane. “Nurse!" I called again, louder. Two worry stricken nurses ran in my direction. I didn't wait to be asked what was wrong. “Her monitors are beeping." We all ran to where my sister lay. The nurses quickly started pulling plugs, pressing buttons, grabbing stuff. Their hands moved so fast, I
My legs were shaking, back and forth, up and down, while I sat in the waiting room of Anna's hospital. I rushed in less than five minutes ago, hoping to see the doctor but I was told she was in surgery, Anna's surgery. I was told that her blood pressure spiked, again, causing some implications as well as internal bleeding, resulting in an emergency surgical procedure that needed to be carried out. I begged the nurse to let me wait in Anna's room, but she didn't let me. Too weak for a struggle, I yielded to her offer, landing in the waiting room with other nervous family members or friends waiting for their loved ones. My insides were in a knot. I had felt so much anxiety in the past few days, my brain couldn't register the feeling anymore. I was numb. I couldn't cry, I could speak, breathing was a chore, and my eyes sometimes closed on their own. While I waited, the sudden urge to consume food came over me, but the uncertainty of Anna's situation was enough to suppress the
The past few days had been miserable. I was cut out of David's life, as well as his finances. I was cut out of Rain's life, as well as his finances. Since I couldn't afford her salary, Maya moved out of the apartment. I was running low on food and money. If David hadn't paid a year's advance for the apartment, I definitely would have been homeless as well. All I did was cry, day in, day out. I couldn't bring myself to eat anything. I had a baby growing inside of me that caused me to be sick every morning, but I had to drag myself around the house because I was by myself. I had tried to reach Rain so many times but after so many tires, I realized he had blocked my number. The same went for his father. Both men had blocked my numbers and I couldn't bring myself to show up at the house. I didn't know if the witch was still living there and I knew she could very much hurt me without hindrance from any one. The only person that showed me care was my sister. We spoke e
At the sound of the intruding voice, my legs spun me around. I felt my heart beating again, thumping loudly, when my eyes met David's. He looked pale, as if he had seen a ghost. I tried to breathe but it was continuously caught in my throat, hanging halfway. “Dad," Rain whispered behind me. I didn't need to look to know he was on his feet. David's eyes shifted to his son behind me. When they shifted again, I knew they rested on the diamond ring in Rain's hand.“What are you doing here?" Rain's voice dragged his father's gaze to him. After a second, he shifted his eyes to mine. He quietly moved his feet towards me. I wanted to step backwards but my legs were numb. The closer he got, the harder my heart pounded, creating a feeling of dread that traveled through every cell in my body. “Are you pregnant?" He asked again. His low, bloodcurdling voice sent ripples down my stiff spine. I struggled to push down the lump in my throat
From the minute Rain started the ignition, pulling out of the hospital parking lot, my heart pounded. I was completely distracted, unconsciously spacing out when I wasn't being spoken to. Rain was especially chatty while he drove, and Maya happily indulged in his conversations. She also seemed unusually excited which made me conclude she was in on whatever Rain had planned. When we drove into my building parking lot, I was relieved to finally be home. I hated every minute of breathing in that hospital and everyday I begged to be allowed to leave. When Rain brought the car to a stop, Maya was the first to jump down. Before I could undo my seatbelt, throwing my legs to climb out of the truck, there was no sight of her. “Where’s Maya?" I asked when I walked around the back of the car to meet Rain waiting on the other side. He took his left arm around my waist, pulling me forward. “She went up first." he answered, pressing the lock button on the car remote.
After two days of imposed bedriddeness, I was finally being discharged and Rain was to take Maya and I back to my apartment. When Rain called, letting me know what time he was going to be coming, I sent for the nurse to request that I be taken off the tubes before he arrived. She initially refused but after my insistence, the determination to cause a big scene although it was intercepted by my doctor, I was let off the hook. Without hesitation, I was freed, after which I headed straight out of the room and down the hall. I hadn't forgiven Maya for picking Rain's call a few days ago. She was the reason I was in a difficult predicament. If she wasn't such a tattletale, I would have instantly gotten an abortion and no one would know about it, but with Rain as excited and involved as he was, the chances of getting away with that were zero to none. I was either to have the baby, or lose it in an unfortunate situation. What amused me was how clueless she was to the way
My eyelashes slowly fluttered open. Instantly attacked by really bright light, I closed them, giving it a moment before trying to open them again. The painful feeling of its intense impact reduced as my blurry vision adjusted to reveal images of things around me. After a few more blinks, I noticed the familiar arrangement of a hospital room. The sterile white walls, the bright overhead lights, the small TV hanging on the wall with the small fridge directly beneath it, all seemed to stare back at me. As my eyes traveled through each item, they fell on the person who sat by my bed. “Rain?" I managed to mumble, my voice raw and weak, unsure that he was going to hear me. He did. He looked up from his phone. When his eyes met mine, they immediately lit up. A smile of relief crept onto his face.“Hey beautiful." He said, his voice filled with warmth. He leaned forward in his chair, taking his hand to delicately stroke my hair. It then occurred to me
