Mitch had offered them some food and water while they found a table to seat together with the other guest."Thank you so much, Mitch," Hendrix exclaimed while helping her with the cup of water. "This is yours!" Mitch said, dropping another cup of juice in front of Hendrix. "Thank you very much!" He told her before sipping from the drink. "Thank you, actually. You shouldn't have bothered!" Travis reckoned while glaring into space."You don't have to thank me because it wasn't much trouble to me. It was you who made a great effort and took your time to come here but then I'm still very happy that you and Hendrix had made it here because now I feel like I'm not alone anymore." Mitch uttered warmly. "I keep telling you, Mitch. Stop saying that you are alone because we are both here for you!" Hendrix muttered. Travis slowly located her tender hands before clutching them slowly. "He is right, you know, whenever you feel sad. You can count on Hendrix or even me, we would always be her
Nora was dressing to leave for the club. Today was practically a day off for Rose as she walked out of the shower before sitting in front Of the portable dressing Mirror of their room."Hmmm, oh my goodness. Talk about being in love." Nora blurted out while glaring at Ray who stood outside the house without moving away. "I gotta go but I got to give it to your lover boy. I don't think he's giving up any time soon," Nora signaled as Rose walked towards the window to maybe have a look. "It's getting annoying already. He won't leave," Rose uttered while glaring at Ray who seemed to have found a spot to sit. "Give the guy a chance and let him go home, he doesn't look like he plans on giving up!" Nora said with a pout but all that seemed to be in vain. "He can stay there for all I care, I already told him to leave!" Rose persisted. "Have some pity. I know that the poor guy is tired and exhausted!" Nora persuaded. "Nobody asked him to stay, it was his decision because I never forced h
"I would rephrase what I had just said, give me back my daughter and if you don't do exactly as I say, I'm going to take this to court!" Jessica voiced out as Claudia clutched the little girl tightly. "I would be glad if you would save us all the trouble, I know that you are aware that you would lose anyway. We all know that Raya is my daughter and that gives me the right as her mother and not you!" Jessica bellowed. "Yes you are right Jessica, you and I don't need to take this to court because you have won. Raya would just end up getting hurt and I don't honestly want that," Claudia said as her eyes and face were masked with sadness. "Alright, for everybody's peace of mind. I'm returning your daughter to you, Jessica!" Claudia uttered in dry sobs as she pushed the little girl towards the direction of her mother but that had ignited sobs from the girl. "Mommy," Raya simply said in a shaky voice. "You have to promise me that you would take good care of her, okay?" Claudia questi
The next morning, Raya had stacked up her things as the maid's around the house helped her with her luggage towards the taxi that awaited her outside Claudia’s mansion. She had a huge frown on her face but Jessica ignored that and still flashed her a warm smile."Hey, I have a nice house waiting for you," she said before pulling her daughter into a hug unexpectedly. "We would never be apart from each other again. Besides, when you get settled. We would look for your sisters Sasha and Rose." Jessica said with a widened smile.Soon, they had arrived at a house, it was a huge and old-looking mansion. "This is the house I got for all of us to live in!" Jessica said to Raya as Daina walked in their direction dressed in a grey gown and hair packed in a ponytail. "This house might be smaller than the one that you are used to but I promise you that it is decent. You would find your room upstairs but if it is okay with you, can you stay in my room for the time being? We haven't been togethe
The beeping sound of the phone was heard as Raya walked out of the shower before tying her towel around her body. She walked out of the bathroom before picking up her phone to slide the answer button.“Hello mommy?” she said with a widened smile before sitting down on the well-laid bed.“Hello Raya, how are you doing?” Claudia's voice came.“Am doing good and you. Are you starting to feel better mommy?” Raya asked.“No, not really! I think that my condition is starting to get worse than before,” Claudia told her on the phone and that had gotten the little girl worried.“What did the doctor tell you?” Raya asked.“Nothing yet, I-ii can feel my body weakening, i’m really scared right now baby” Claudia responded in a stutter.“Why mommy, what's wrong?” Raya inquired.“Everything is wrong my dear, ever since you were taken away from me by Jessica I feel sadder each passing day but Raya, I'm more concerned about your condition. I’m worried about you, listen to me, honey! Do not trust Jessi
Rose was dressed in a very gorgeous but casual outfit as both she and Ray walked into a very expensive-looking diner to have lunch. She seemed to be glaring around as they walked to the table which had been reserved for them, Ray was quick to pull out a chair for her to take a seat before sitting opposite her.They had picked what to order as they waited for their food but Ray was quick to notice how gloomy she looked.“Hey, why do you look so sad Rose, you don't like the place?” he questioned.“I do and this place looks perfect. I was honestly just thinking about something!” Rose replied.“Huh, what were you thinking about? Common, tell me about it!” He exhorted, nicely.“It's about, it's about my job!” she told him as the waiter brought them their order.“Uhmm, what about your job? What job is that?” he questioned. “Is it schoolwork or is it your job at the hospital?” he implored yet again while pouring her a glass of wine.“Ray, there is something you need to know about me because
Ray strolled down the stairs before walking towards the direction of the dining table to notice his parents having breakfast. He seemed excited today as he slowly hugged his mother from behind before leaving a warm peck on her hair. “Good morning mom!” he greeted as she responded sweetly in return.“Good Morning dad!” He greeted his father who only made a sound before he sat on the empty seat beside his father. The maid beside him had begun to serve every delicious-looking meal on the table on his plate when his mother had thrown a question at him. “So, what's this I am hearing that you broke it off with Stephanie?” his mother asked as his expression instantly changed to that of a frown. “Your mother is talking to you!” his father muttered rigorously. “Look, I have said this before. I don't love Stephanie!” Ray said politely.“But you hurt her Ray for goodness sake, you were already engaged. Don'tyou care about how she feels?” his mother explained questionably.“So, I never asked
“It's true mommy, just as you told me. I have been observing over here and that is how I found out!” Raya told Claudia on the phone.“Listen, try to find out how she got that money and clues to where she is hiding it, okay?” Claudia instructed very carefully. “Yes mommy, I would do just that but I miss you so much!” Raya uttered with a much softer voice.“I know that and I also miss you too! I love you very much. I honestly want all of this to end quickly and soon because I want to get back the riches they stole from us, I also want to go back to living in peace before they ruined everything. Hunny, I want you to come back home to me as soon as possible. Do you understand why this has to be done, Raya?” she asked with her words clustered on the phone.“Don't worry because I do understand mommy!” she responded. “You know what to do, take extra care when you are around them, and observe everything. Be mindful of everyone there, and be extra vigilant. Okay?” Claudia warned.“I will, mo
