“Uncle David, are you here to see me…. I missed you.” Daniel said and run toward him, leaving his mom. David also picked him up happily and ruffled his hair lovingly. “I got a star on my exam. Teachers have praised me a lot. In the Next PT meeting, she will give me a gift too.” Daniel said happily. “That’s my good boy. I will give you a gift, too.” David said, and Daniel chuckled shyly. Gloria was looking at their encounter and seeing all this her mouth curved unintentionally and even a traitor tear flow out from her eyes. How much she wanted to see them together, sharing happiness. It was her dream always. But when she remembered the reality her face become static and she stood up worriedly. She wanted to walk toward them but David move forward and give her support so that she doesn’t need to put pressure on her leg. Gloria didn’t waste any more time and snatched Daniel away from him. “Mom,” Daniel was saying something, but Gloria didn’t let him. “Why did you come down? Go
After Henry called the family doctor, he also suggested the same as them what David’s doctor told him. Sara was heartbroken hearing his words. “I knew she was suffering, but I didn’t think it was this much severe.” Sara was feeling regretful that she couldn’t do anything for her daughter. She has always been an introvert with her feelings and only she could understand her feelings all these years. But this time she has failed. “And here you are, bringing home the person who caused her all suffering,” Henry said in a mocking tone. Every minute David was standing here was making Henry burn inside. He has seen her suffering all these years. How Gloria used to seat absentmindedly and used to look outside like she was waiting for someone. Her longing in her eyes, her expectation of happiness, her lonely life nothing was hidden from him. That’s why he wanted to keep her away from all this drama. How could he ignore how Sara was trying to bring him back into their lives and he don’
David worriedly returned to his office.It was not like he wasn’t concerned about Gloria; it was just he needed to be more concerned about solving the problem.Gloria has suffered a lot and as soon as she can solve the problem, they can return to their normal life.So he was serious about solving this problem within a week, as he has promised Sara.Noah entered after him hurriedly with some files, and David looked at him, expecting.“I have investigated the accident. It was not some random accident. It was a well-planned attack against miss White.” Noah said, making David frown.“I have got some CCTV footage that says a black Bently was following Miss White for a long time and when she dropped David back and took that road it attacked her. Who has planned all this and tried very hard to hide the evidence? But I was one step ahead, and I got the footage before they can wipe it.” Noah said with a proud smile, and David smirked.“Show me the footage,” David said, and they walked toward hi
Lia was jumping with happiness when she heard the news from David.“Mom, do you know who called me now? It was David.” She said, yelling in joy.“I can’t tell you how happy I am. I was waiting for this day for so long. He has called me into his house. I am sure I will get what I want today.” Lia couldn’t hold her excitement but Lara was not happy with her behavior.She can understand she was happy, but why behave like an uncivilized person?She was totally against this.“Can you please behave and sit down?” Lara berate her, which made Lia stop, but today even Lara’s words can’t stop her.She sat back on the sofa, but her full face was beaming with happiness.“Now tell me what happened,” Lara said and Lia explained everything.Lia was so happy that she didn’t notice the abnormality in David’s tone.“I told you. But didn’t it happen too soon? Even if Gloria has died, I thought David would at least mourn for his so-called love. I have underestimated his feelings,” Lara said, snickering.“
“You didn’t need to bring something like this. But as you have bought it, I would keep it.” David said and keep it aside, showing no intention of opening it.Though Lia wanted him to taste it she said nothing.He sat back on the sofa but didn’t offer Lia to sit.Lia was feeling awkward. She took the initiative and walk forward to sit.She was going to sit beside David, but his jacket was kept there, so she took the sofa opposite him.David pulled out a cigarette and lit it up.He took a puff and smoke out in her face, making her cough violently.“David.. Cough…” Lia wanted to retort, but she choke on the smoke and turn around to cough out.The room was already cloudy. Maybe David was smoking for some time.But Lia has never seen him smoke so much.“Actually, I wanted you to meet someone.” David shook the dust off his cigarette in the ashtray and lean back on the sofa in a relaxed manner.“Who?” Lia asked, and David looked toward the stairs. Lia followed his gaze and noticed a girl wal
“No, No….. David, please forgive me. I will go away from your life. I won’t bother you anymore. Just forgive me. Give me one last chance.” Lia fell on his feet and hold his leg, begging.But David was not ready to forgive her.He shook his leg away as if something filthy has touched it.“I would never forgive someone who had harmed my family. And you have made me suffer for six years. How can I forgive you?” David asked, snickering.He moved away, and Lia noticed someone enter inside.They were some men who were looking like a beggar.“No, No… David, you can’t do this to me.” Lia was begging but David’s phone rang out. He ignored her words and walked away to pick it up.“David, Did you pick Daniel? I know you are his dad. But he doesn’t know it yet and you can’t pick him up without informing us.” Sara’s anxious voice came out from the other side.“Mom, Daniel is not with me. I haven’t picked him.” David said, frowning.He can be impulsive, but he is not stupid. He won’t do anything tha
Gloria was sitting in her room, waiting for Daniel.Sara has gone to pick him up from his music class as Gloria was feeling out of the weather.Her son was sad because she has scolded him and he didn’t even meet her before he left for the class.She thought she has everything handledShe has underestimated her courage and now she can see how affected she was by all this.Her mental health was always a concern, and she knew she couldn’t solve it automatically and now it was affecting her physical health.Her leg was not in a condition to move and she thought it won’t be bad to take some rest.She has ignored Daniel enough in between all this drama and it will be good if she could spend some quality time with him.She won’t let anyone come between their happiness and letting David take him away was out of the question.She was confused about whether she should let Daniel know about David.She didn’t know if she was ready or not.Maybe Daniel can wait some more time and she would try to
David knew he can’t deal with this matter alone but he can deal with Lia.Today he was determined to punish Lia, and in no condition, he is going to let her go unpunished.He walked inside and noticed Lia was sitting inside the hall in a disheveled state and almost half of her clothes are torn.But they were not still close to something he wanted to happen.“Stop.” He said and the men backed off, leaving her away.“David, I am begging you. I won’t create any problems in your life. I will leave New York if you want and will never come back. Let me go.” Lia crawled toward his feet and beg him, crying.Her face was nothing like it was looking when she entered.Her makeup has ruined because of all her struggle and she was looking like a beggar with her torn clothes.Dirty, and homeless, like he wanted her to be.“Do you think I will forgive you ever? What you have done can’t be undone and do not forget you tried to kill Gloria.” David said and Lia lost all her hope.He knew she was behind

Dad has sent me again to check whether you are ready or not. I am not leaving unless you come with me.” Daniel said angrily, stomping her feet, and Gloria chuckled.“Aww, my poor baby. Did daddy make you too much work?” She asked, and pulled him onto her lap.“No, but Daddy is like when is your mommy coming? It’s not like you are running away. He should know ladies take time.” Daniel said and Gloria giggle.“Who said that?” Gloria asked.“My friend in the school. She said we should know girls take time and we should not complain.” Daniel said, and Gloria nod
David was leaving the room as he was feeling terrible.Yes, he would stay away to keep the child safe. But he was expecting to get a second chance.He knew it was hard for Gloria to forgive him.But he was ready to repent till his last breath.It was not a lie. He truly loved Gloria. It’s just his one stupid mistake made him lose everything.Now even if he asks for forgiveness all his life, nothing is going to change.Gloria won’t keep his child away he was sure about that.But he won’t get any place in her life ever.“You didn’t let me finish, David,” Gloria said, making him halt in his step.“I want to have this child. But I don’t want to do the parenting alone. It’s hard to be a single parent.” Gloria said, making him turn around excitedly.“Why will you be alone? I will be there. I have missed Daniel’s childhood. I don’t want to miss this one too.” David said, kneeling in front of me.“Think about it before agreeing. You will have to go to the doctor’s appointment every time with
Gloria wanted to leave this place soon.But seeing her son crying like this she couldn’t leave him there.“No, why will I leave you? I love you, baby.” Gloria said and patted his back to calm him down.“Then stay Here, with me. I want you and dad both.” He said and looked at David.David walked forward and lean down to pull Gloria and Daniel into a hug together.Gloria wanted to move back but noticing Daniel she didn’t.One month later.It’s been a month since Gloria was living with David.It was not until she didn’t leave. It’s just Daniel was stubbornly keeping her here.David was also trying his best to ask for forgiveness though she didn’t accept her heart was melting slowly.After knowing everything, she didn’t want to blame him anymore. But the pain was so hard to let go of.Gloria was feeling sick from someday and she didn’t understand why she was feeling like this.She was feeling weak and wanted to just sleep her day off.And from last week there was that nauseous feeling whe
“Gloria,” David called out when she was leaving the house.David was not there when Gloria said goodbye to all as David needed to attend a call.When he returned Gloria was not there.When David asked his mom he gets to know Gloria has already left not long back so he runs out to see her.“You can stay the night. Daniel wouldn’t be comfortable staying here alone.” David used another excuse, which made Gloria chuckle.“How long do you think you can make Daniel an excuse to keep me here? I and you can never be together again. So stop using him as an excuse.” Gloria said bitterly.Though David was ashamed as Gloria looked through his facade, he didn’t want to lose.“Then not for Daniel, stay for me.” David urged shamelessly.“You?… Why would I do that?” Gloria was looking calm, but her inside was blazing with anger.The rage she was suppressing for so long came out with full force when David said those words.“Gloria, I know it’s hard for you to forget everything. But now you know it’s n
Gloria entered the room and noticed Daniel was sleeping on the bed peacefully.That didn’t look like a room made for a child, but Gloria can notice the newly bought things which can be used for children.David may not have planned to move her, but he has planned to make every preparation possible to let Daniel feel comfortable.She walked toward the bed and get on half lying beside Daniel to see his son's peaceful face closely.His face was so peaceful no one would feel he was staying there for the first time.She moved the short hair from his forehead and caress his cheeks, which made him stir in sleep and open his eyes slowly.“Mom.” He says yawning and stretching his body to wake up.“Slept well?” She asked, and Daniel nodded, smiling.“Am I in dad’s house?” Daniel asked, looking around, and Gloria nodded.“Are we now staying here together? Dad, you and me?” Daniel asked excitedly, but Gloria didn’t respond.But Daniel was so happy with the thought only he didn’t notice the sad fac
Gloria took the advice her mom has given her and get on her mission.She called David directly.“Gloria.” A surprised and happy voice came out from the opposite side.“Where are you? Where did you take him?” She asked without hiding her anger from him.“I just took him home.” He said, making her brow puckered with anger.Why he was playing games again?“I went to your home and according to your maid you don’t live there,” Gloria said in a frustrated tone.She can easily find out his address f she wants, it’s just she didn’t want to waste her energy.“That’s because I have changed my house,” David said, playing with his words again.“And where this house is and why you changed it suddenly? I thought you were living there like last night.” Gloria said in a mocking tone and David chuckled hearing her words.He knew he was getting on her nerves and he was feeling glad while doing this sweet banter.When was the last time Gloria has taken the initiative to call him and when she has talked
Sara noticed Gloria was going out of the house, and she has an idea where her daughter can go.She was worried about what will happen either, but there was another thing she need to deal with before that.It’s been so many years and people thought her lenience was her weakness.This time, she would show them her true strength.She met Henry while going out and Henry was sitting with Diana, comforting the old lady who was still crying her grievances out.Sara doesn’t blame them, but she can’t be so emotional too.“Dad,” Sara called out, and the couple looked at her while Diana wiped her teary face.“What have you decided to do?” Sara didn’t want to push them, but she won’t let them get weak too.They can have their emotions, but Lara won’t get away without punishment this time.Henry when noticed her determination and a sigh left his mouth.How can he defend Lara when what she has done was unforgivable?He can let her get away when she has planned to kill him.But this blow was so heav
Gloria was lying on the bed, facing the ceiling, when Sara entered the room.Her face was marred with tears but blank of any emotion.It felt like she was blocking her every emotion inside.But this time, Sara was adamant about not letting her repeat the same mistake.She need to stop locking her heart inside and started to open up.She should vent her anger, and complain about her grievance even if she takes her revenge. Sara was Ok with that.It’s been a long time since she should start fighting her problems instead of making the troubling thought overwhelm her and make her depressed.Sara walked toward her and forcefully make her sit angrily.Gloria was not expecting her outburst, so she looked at her with a confused look.“How long will you remain a coward and hide from every problem?” Sara asked angrily.“Mom.” Gloria was saying something, but Sara snapped without hearing her word.“What mom? You are not a teenage girl whom I need to babysit. You are an adult lady and the mother
