Gwen.

Ryan's car pulled up in front of an unfamiliar ice cream shop; I looked at the building in front of me while staying inside the car. It looked beautiful from the outside, with many ice cream decorations on its walls. The place was filled, and that was a sign that told me the ice cream must be perfect. It wouldn't be perfect if it weren't this filled up.

“Ready to go out?” Ryan asked.

“I think I am,” I told him skeptically since I had no idea if I was ready for this or not.

I had wanted an ice cream, but not this place filled with so many people.

Ryan paused what he was doing and looked at me.

“What do you mean by that?” he asked.

I looked at him and then took my eyes back to the ice cream shop to see more people going in and coming out.

“I don't think I can go in there.” Ryan looked at me as if I was joking; what I said didn't make sense. Of course, it didn't make sense to me either.

“I thought you said you wanted to eat an ice cream, but why are you chickening out?” he asked

Gwen should get her own ice cream. Ryan is a sly man/boy. He should not force his own thoughts on Gwen. That’s not how it works. Gwen is absolutely right in acting this way. Ryan you’re just a great friend not a love interest. Get with the program.

Gwen how can you be an heiress from a rich family and act in such ways. You are stupid, idiot and don't know how to behave while being with Ryan. You think like in the old days, not like 2024. Such a dumbass. Too Intimate to share the ice cream? What a dummy!

    Gwen.He doesn't expect us to eat from the safe plate. That looks intimate; we're friends, but apart from that, we're nothing else. Why did we have to eat from the same plate? Ryan must have noticed how quiet I was after he said that, so he said without looking at me, "Do not think much about it Gwen. I can see your head doing some calculations from here.” I didn't bother to hide my curiosity,“why didn't you get yours?” “Where's the fun in it if I get my separate plate and do not eat from the same plate but do not think of it as something else Gwen, just think of it as two friends sharing a plate of ice cream. That is all, do not think more about it,” he assured, and I wanted to go with that excuse, ‘Just two friends eat from the same plate.’Ryan continued driving, and although I did not have an idea where he was taking me, I kept quiet and just enjoyed the ride, and all I wanted to do was free my mind and off every single thought.After driving for what felt like an eternity to

    Gwen.Ryan didn’t say anything for a while after I asked that and I get why, he must be thinking of a better way to answer my question. Since he found this place to be therapeutic for him then he must have had a deeper reason for coming here. “I….I don't know how to say it, Gwen,” he finally said, his eyes still focused on the waterfall. I nodded my head and took another scoop of ice cream; although I try not to show how disappointed I was that he didn’t give me an answer. “It’s okay, I get it,” I told him, shoving the spoon of ice cream into my mouth. Ryan let out a sigh, “It isn’t like I don’t want to tell you but it’s just…..just hard to remember those stuffs and then say them out.” He added with a defeated sigh. “You don’t have to if you do not want to Ryan, like I told you; I’m good with this and I am glad you brought me to this place. It really helped me take my mind off things.” I told him while trying to change the topic. “I thought you would like it.” His cocky grin was

    Henry. It was another Monday again and today meant we were going to court for the final hearing; today was the day the judge decided who would gain custody of Jas and if I said I wasn’t scared I was joking. I’m scared to my bone and all through this morning I didn’t let Jasmine leave my side and luckily for me she did not want to leave my side either. We did everything together, ate, and also had a little game even though Emily wasn’t happy with it. We still haven’t been able to talk about what was going on—no, I still haven’t been able to create a chance for her. Every single little spare time I have is for Jas and although Emily doesn’t show she’s angry I know she is. The other day after putting Jas to sleep, I tried talking to her, tried explaining why I was doing all of this but she wouldn’t let me speak. It was like she didn’t want to hear anything that concerned Gwen, myself, and my daughter. I mean I know she’s pregnant and sensitive but she should also know that Jasmine

    Gwen. I woke up feeling agitated and scared of the day ahead, there was another course session today and we will not know the final decision of the judge. Although there was this little voice in my head that kept reminding me that I wasn't going to get my daughter, I still reassured myself that whatever the judge decides is for the best.Jasmine is safe with either Henry or myself.So I sluggishly got up from the bed, and went to the bathroom to take my bath; I was already aware that I would be late at the court since I did not wake up on time.It isn’t something I was happy to say or regard but what do you think will be the outcome of not getting enough sleep last night or not even sleeping at all? My mind was bothered by what was going to happen today, I wasn’t settled and if it wasn’t for Nina who called last night I think I would have run mad already. I brushed my teeth, then took a quick cold bath to wake up my sleepy body and brain, I was driving myself to the court today si

    Henry. The court process was fast, and in no time, the judge was giving her statement. With all the accusations pointed at me about being a bad father, about being a bad husband who cheated on his wife, and also got divorced from her, I already knew that Jasmine we were given to Gwen, my ex-wife. So, I wasn't that surprised when the judge gave full custody to Gwen instead of me, but what I wasn't expecting was what she said when she called out; she gave me custody as well as she was given. I couldn't believe it; no matter how hard I tried to analyze the situation, I wasn't expecting to be a part of Jasmine's life anymore, I wasn’t expecting to be a part of their lives anymore not after what I did. I wouldn't be happy until after this, because I knew there would be some conditions. Gwen was allowed to place some few things that I needed to do before taking Jas and I was going to do all of those things if they meant me seeing my child. I stayed on the seat, ignoring my lawyer who wa

    Gwen. Ryan had refused to say anything to me as we stepped out of the courthouse, and I know why. He is mad, I know he will be. He is mad at me for not telling him this, for not taking counsel from him before doing what I did. It was last last-minute decision and while I wanted to pay back Henry, they should also understand that it’s my child’s life we are talking about here and not just anyone’s. “Aren’t you going to say something?” I asked, unable to bear the silence anymore. Ryan kept quiet as he opened the passenger's door for me.“Come on Ryan, say something.” I urged, ignoring his offer for me to go inside the car. “What do you want me to say, Gwen?” He asked and though he sounded mad, I was still glad he said something. “Anything. I know you are angry….” I began but got cut off. “I am more than angry Gwen.” “I know but you need to understand that…..” he interrupted me again. “We won’t have this talk if you are not in the car.” What he meant was that he wouldn’t speak

    Gwen,We got to Father's house on time, and just as I thought, Father wasn't too pleased about my idea of Henry in Jasmine's life. He was angry and refused to let me explain myself, but thank God for my mother, who said some words to him and made him see things through; I was able to explain myself.Father couldn't wait to meet his granddaughter. They were all excited to see her for the first time, and I could not wait to introduce them to her and them to her, a real family. The Baldwins cannot be classified as Jasmine's family; they do not treat my child right, called her a bastard child who didn’t belong to their family or even brother, or son, so they have absolutely no right to claim her as their family.So I was more than happy to let her meet my family, I was going to get Jasmine from Henry’s house tomorrow since I decided to let her spend the night with him. Henry and I will have to go over some things and come to a conclusion for the days he will be with her and me. We had a

    Gwen. I walked fully into the house but paused when I heard hushed voices coming from the kitchen. ‘So there are people in here after all.’ Moving quietly I decided to go check out who that was, the voices became clearer as I neared the kitchen. “I’m going to meet Mommy?” Jasmine asked with quite an excited voice. “Yes,” Henry replied and though I could not see them right now, I could tell he had a smile on his face as he answered her question. “And you said I can also have a sleepover with her right?” She asked again. “Yes,” Henry answered again. “But you aren’t coming with us, why?” I heard him sigh, I bit my bottom lip as I waited for his answer. I wonder what he was going to say to our daughter. “You should know this Jas, your mommy and I are not together anymore.” He told her. “Uh…why?” She inquired and I was sure she had that curious look on her face as she asked that. Even though she had a slight understating of what was going on, Jasmine always acts like she underst

    Epilogue. Henry. A little body jumped onto the king-size bed, waving the mattress and waking me up from the deep sleep that I had been engulfed in. The fucking hell. I need no one to tell me who it was. I snapped out of my sleep just as Gwen burrowed further beneath the comforter in her deep sleep. I tried to hold her before Nate jumped on the bed but yet again I was late. Jesus! He always do this every morning and I'm tired ot correcting him everytime. “Nate,” I called. “Papa, wake up, wake up,” Nathaniel sang jubilantly and then crawled towards me while dressed in his SpongeBob pajamas. It's his favorite pajamas. “It’s Saturday which means cake time, mommy. Wake up,” he said again but unknown to him, Gwen was too deep in his sleep to notice anyone. Crazy pregnancy brain. I swear. She wouldn't hear a thing. Also unknown to Nathaniel, he failed to notice the giant lumps of his twin under the comforter wrapped around Gwen’s body. I sighed when I caught the s

    Gwen.I couldn’t believe what was happening, one time I was angry at Henry for driving me out of the room and the next I was walking down the hallway then stopped all of a sudden because of a huge pain that hit me.And then something wet ran down my thighs, I couldn’t believe I’d just peed on myself. But after another wave of painful contractions hit me again, I knew this wasn’t about me peeing on myself, my water just broke.And let’s not talk about how Henry suddenly froze after I told him about it, I mean the man wasn’t moving at all. He was just staring at me like I’d just turned into a big alien all of a sudden.“Henry!” I called harshly, squeezing his hand tightly to pull him from wherever his head was at but that didn’t work.I groaned when the contraction hit me again. Calm down Gwen, you have gone through this before.Breathe in and out, breathe in and out.Yes, that’s it, you are doing fine……Argh.“Henry, please say something baby,” I called, hitting his hand.He blinked but

We have a life back at home and I could tell Gwen was missing the kids and our families.So after staying for about a month—left to me I would stay here forever, we returned home and went back to our new life, only that I didn’t want Gwen to work.She always looks exhausted after coming back from work.

    Gwen.One Week Later.It had been a week since Ryan died and everything had gone back together, even though he kinda spoiled my wedding, I was glad Henry and I did exchange our rings and vows before his appearance.It has been a week since we got married and I still can’t believe this fine man sleeping beside me was my husband. Again.I couldn’t get enough of him, he was too unreal to be this handsome. To me, it was a crime for someone to be this cute and handsome at the same time.I couldn’t take my eyes off him as he slept soundly beside me, it was day two of our honeymoon phase—yeah you heard that right, Henry wouldn’t let it go.He said he wanted an alone time with me in a different country and place so three days after our wedding and after Ryan’s death, we left the country for Maldives.Henry had already gotten the reservation and everything ready before coming, so it wasn’t difficult for us to settle down.I could remember how horny Henry was as soon as we entered our room, he

    Gwen.“I have a question for you baby,” he started but I still didn’t look at him. He shouldn’t ask me anything when I’m still mad at him. Everything that happened today was a mess, though I have an idea about it that doesn’t mean I was ready for the drama Ryan was bringing with him.I wouldn’t lie that I wasn’t scared when he held me with that knife pointing at my neck, I was scared out of my mind that any movement would get me killed. I was scared but after seeing the reassuring look in Henry’s eyes I knew everything was going to be fine. More reason why I didn’t panic.“Tell me, apart from hearing your mother talk about Ryan, did you hear something else?” He asked and I kept quiet.When I noticed he wouldn’t stop asking until I answered I shook my head.“What if I told you that everything that happened today was planned?” He asked, dropping the bombshell.I froze after hearing that, he didn’t just say that.I couldn’t say anything, in fact, it felt like I couldn’t hear anything fro

    Henry.The gunshot sounded in the room accompanied by Gwen’s scream and I watch, I watch with satisfaction how it went straight to the fucker and hit his chest. I rushed forward and held Gwen in my arms, protecting her from the bastard's blood. The loud thud of his body dropping on the ground and the heavy sound of a boot on the sand told me everything went well.I looked behind me and saw Ryan trying to catch his breath with his hand on his chest like he could stop the blood from coming out. I took my eyes off him as my men took him out.“Are you alright baby?” I asked, looking down at my wife who wasn’t moving in my arms.I pulled from the hug and stared at her, her eyes were open but she wasn’t saying anything.“Talk to me baby, are you alright?” I asked worriedly while searching her body for any injuries. I hissed when I saw a scratch on her neck, it must be from the knife.Gwen blinked and then as she had just snapped out of her thought she held my hand, staring at me with her be

    Henry. “You want me right? Just me?” She asked and he smiled. No. “Now we are talking, yes I want you. You should know that for a long time now I have always wanted you even though you are already mine,” he said.I groaned as I flexed my jaw muscles. How delusional could one be to think someone who isn’t in love with him is his? He must be mad.“Right, then let them go and just take me,” she said.I blinked and looked at her in disbelief, she didn’t say what I think I just heard right?“Gwen…” I started only to get interrupted by her.“Take me instead and don’t hurt any of them,” I could feel my bliss boiling as I heard her repeat the same words.She shouldn’t agree to his terms, he was only above us because he was with a gun. I fear he would shoot if I decide to attack him and that is what I do not want. Someone might get hurt.Ryan paused, he did nothing, said nothing but only looked at Gwen with suspicious eyes.“You are being way too easy Gwen, tell me what do you have planned?

    Henry.I knew he would be here, I knew he must have gotten a whiff of the wedding and where it would be held. I had everything planned to capture the bastard if he gets here but I never thought he would be this early, never thought he would come and spoil my wedding.The bastard was really getting on my nerves.I looked at Gwen who stood frozen beside me, her eyes wide open as they stared at Ryan in shock. I know what she is thinking right now, she couldn’t believe he was here, and not only that he also had a gun.The whole place was completely quiet as Ryan took slow steps inside, he had a huge grin on his face while taking in everyone’s reaction.“Good day people, I bet you are all surprised to see me here?” He asked but no one answered.I glared at him while trying to bring my phone out discreetly. I quickly typed and sent a message on it after making sure he wasn’t looking.I slipped the phone back into my phone pocket after doing that.“It’s very rude of you guys not to invite me
