Chantelle was in her room when a sharp blinding pain hit the side of her chest very hard. She fell to the floor while she held her chest and groaned in pain, “ahh,” she groaned painfully.“Auntie, what’s happening to you!” Mitch ran into the room towards her direction. “Mitch, I need your help right now. I need to go to the hospital right now, I can't bear the pain any longer!” she muttered hurriedly with a groan and clenched teeth. The little girl nodded, and she ran out to find help to take her aunt to the hospital. Soon, they were in the hospital while the doctors checked on Chantelle. “What do you call your aunt's illness?” Hendrix asked.“I honestly do not know anything about that, Hendrix, all I know is that when I came into her room. She seemed to be twisting in pain while she held her stomach very tightly on the floor.” Mitch explains in sobs.“Stop crying because I'm very sure that the doctors would do all they can to save your aunt to feel better,” Hendrix said, patting h
The pen in Travis' hands twitches while he examines the booklet in his hands. As much as things weren't going easy right now, he still wanted to at least find his youngest daughter! He began to pen down some things on the paper when his attention was caught short by the clicking of heels. “Hi Travis?” the voice of Claudia filled the air. Travis rubbed his jaw while he watched her take a seat opposite him. “What are you doing here?” he managed to question. “I came here to know if you are doing okay here?” she blurts out while looking around.“You know what Claudia? You shouldn't be checking on me like you used to, it's not necessary!” he told her firmly. “Let me do this because I’m very happy with what I’m doing. What are all those notes for?” she asked. Travis felt uncomfortable with her question but he decided to tell her. “These are names of different orphanages. I just wanted to check if my youngest daughter is in one of these!” Travis responded, he slowly rubbed the nape of h
The next morning, Claudia had dropped by in the orphanage where Travis was staying. “Hey, it's a good thing that I still caught you here. I thought that you might have left already! By the way, this is yours, Mitch!” Claudia voiced while handing the little girl some shopping bags.“I brought you some clothes and some kinds of stuff that you may need. I’m sure that they would all fit you, and also there is some food there too, I’m sure that we don't want to burden ‘sister’ here.” Claudia muttered with a widened smile.“Of course not, you should not worry about that. Especially now that Travis is like a family to me, I told him that it's perfectly alright for Mitch to stay here with me. Anyway, she is familiar with this place!” The nun responded.“Thank you so much, sister!” Travis appreciated. “Uhmm, Travis. Why don't you both stay at my house? You and Mitch are free to live there!” Claudia suggested.“Uhmmm, maybe it's better for us to just stay here but then there's something I want
Claudia gave the flattest looks while she walked into her house. She felt overwhelmed by her actions lately, “And just where have you been again? You seem busy lately!” Tessa said, her gaze fixed on Claudia. “I have been with Travis, I bought some clothes and things for his adopted child.” Claudia blurted out.“His adopted child? Is it not your adopted child too?” Clara, who had been sitting silently, asked. “Wait, what’s going on?” Tessa questioned with a confused expression. Claudia flashed her a lovely smile before taking a seat beside her. She slowly picked up the wine bottle on the table to pour herself a cup, she soon sipped it content before speaking. “Well, you see. This child named Mitch now lives with Travis. Basically, both of their lives with the nun. I had offered them to stay here rather!” Claudia uttered while she played with her nails.“You what? Does that mean they will start living here?” Tessa asked unsure if she had heard her friend so well.“Wait a minute, wha
“Are you angry with me Raya?” Jessica asked, Raya after a while of noticing that she hadn't said a word.“No, I just feel very sad about all that's happening. It seems like the one thing I have been praying for would never ever happen.” Raya said, warm tears slowly dropping to her cheeks.“I want our family to be complete again but then you don't seem like you like father anymore.” Raya voiced as more tears gushed out.“Common, stop crying already. You know the story by now and you know what really happened, please do not force things that you want for us. It just can't happen anymore!” Jessica pointed out.“Can't we ever be like the way we were before all of this happened? A real family,” Raya uttered. “Isn't it true that when we make a mistake. We apologize right away, and ask for forgiveness? That's what you taught me and my sisters when we were little, why don't you just forgive our father?” Raya blurted out.“Isn't it that you were also not with us for a very long time? We also
Rose had met up with Ray. She had been tearing up ever since she left the hospital, her face was presently very red like a tomato. Things weren't going well because her mother was proving entirely stubborn. The moment Ray caught a glimpse of her. He didn't have to question her but he tried to comfort her, “Why is it like this? It seems like I could never find happiness, for many years I have waited for my mother and father but now that they are here. They don't want to be with each other!” Rose blurt out the instant she was calm. “Haven't I already told you that you should leave them alone for a while, give them their space?” Ray said calmly.“You mean, I should just let them be like this? Remember, these are my parents. It's been a long time since we saw one another or been together.” she pointed out. “We were still little kids but I would always be thrilled seeing them happy. I told myself that when the time comes, and when I eventually get married! I want to be like them and ha
Travis and Mitch seemed to be having their breakfast while Claudia tried to make them each a glass of milk. “Well, tell me, Mitch. How did you sleep last night?” Claudia asked with a wide grin. “I had a good night's sleep but it was chilly!” she answered, taking a spoonful of her meal. Claudia gave a small chuckle while adding sausage to their plate each. “You know Mitch isn't really used to the air conditioning yet. That's why she felt so cold!” Travis explained. “True, and then the bed was very very soft. It smelled so nice and comfy!” Mitch muttered yet again causing another raft of a chuckle from Claudia. “What did I tell you, Travis? A child would always prefer to live in a real house. Why don't you consider myoffer and stay here instead!” Claudia said.“Okay, but I want you to know that it's only going to be temporary. I’m going to find a job and a place we can stay,” Travis voiced before digging more.“Don’t worry, I’m going to help you!” Claudia said,“Thank you,” He rep
Travis had helped Claudia out after she complained of building pain, dizziness, and headache. “You have to slow down a bit, be careful!” Travis muttered as he held her hands to keep her stable.“Thank you Travis for accompanying me to the hospital!” Claudia voiced out the moment they got to the stairs.“It's truly nothing,” he said, He was beyond shocked, and his heart seemed to beat fast when she shoved her lips on his. He tried to pull away but her grip on his face was very tight.She seemed to force the kiss even if he wasn't retaliating. Travis soon managed to shove her away. “Claudia, why did you do that?” he questioned with a furrowed eyebrow. “I’m sorry about that, I just acted on in pulse!” she said, running a hand through her hair. Travis ignored what she had said, he twirled around to leave but was held back by Claudia. “Travis, I still love you. I have truly tried to ignore my feelings for you but it just seems like I can't do it.” she voiced out.“We had an agreement,
