"Where are we?" Mila asked.

Carl took a deep breath. He pulled her closer to him.

"When Mom passed away, Dom drove me out here one day. I was confused too and asked him why…"

Carlson looked down at her.

She gave him her ears, waiting attentively for what he had to say.

"Do you know what he said?"

Mila shook her head.

"He told me that he had no reason, he just wanted to let me see something different."

Mila furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. She looked around for what was different about this place.

"What is different here?" Mila asked.

"Nothing! Or maybe the air, I don't know. He never told me, but I figured out that it'll help you the same way it helped me." Carl said.

"Hmm, strange! But it is actually relieving somehow, just standing here…" Mila looked around.

"This was the only way I could wish him farewell. He still had the power of comfort behind his silence. He was a good friend, Mila…I wish I had the power to change things." Carl spoke remorsefully.

    "Yes I do, the one with whom I said attends the same support group as my Mom right? That's the only person I figured out that you'll be interested in from that day." He added the later part when he saw the puzzled look on her face."Oh, yeah. Uhmmm, I want to meet her." Brant raised his brows. 'It was strange though, he knew that Mila could meet anyone at any time if she wanted to, why was she asking him?'"You can meet her anytime, I think." Brant was not sure if he was answering her right "I know that. Where is the support group being held?" Mila asked.'Just what had come over her today?' Brant thought. The Mila he knew would definitely have already tracked the lady down and waited for her on a faithful afternoon or evening in her garage, in the backseat of her car.Brantley could not hold back his curiosity. "We both know that if you want to know everything about her, you will, right? So why are you asking me?" He tilted his head to the side."Yes, but I'm trying to do things lik

    THE WOMAN FROM THE SUPPORT GROUP Emille was not the one to constantly show himself in public, but he'd done so more times in the past few days than he'd anticipated.He held no grudge against Carl, instead, he understood just how much Carl could be hurting so he decided to pay him a visit at his office.After Dom's funeral, they all decided to get back to their activities, that way, it'll serve as a distraction."Does it help?" Emille asked as he made himself comfortable on the couch in Carlson's huge office.Carl straightened his suit as he joined Emille."What are you talking about?" Carl asked, while pouring two glasses of wine."Burying yourself up in work, does it help?" Emille picked up the glass motioned to him and sipped."Hmm, not really, but it is a huge distraction though. I want to move the company's HeadQuarters here in Limesville, at least that way, I'll get to spend more time with Mila." Carl leaned back in the comfort of his seat."Selfish!" Emille whispered audibly e

    “What did you two talk about?” Brantley aske Mila when it was just them. They had dropped his mother off at the White Mansion after leaving the support group.“I asked her a few questions about the ‘said’ sister of hers.” Mila replied.Mrs White would not brag about Brantley and Mila to the other members of the group. At least, both of them got the opportunity to listen to some of the stories of a handful of the members, including Mrs White. The experience made Mila appreciate her life more than she ever had. Perhaps, she just could not let go of everything that she’d been through, but knowing that she came out alive and healthy…that was a win.She did get a chance to talk one on one with Solange after the session was over.“Did you get anything out of it?” Brantley asked. “Hmm, maybe not, but I want to get closer to her and…at least I got to see the world from another angle today.” she replied.“Right, so what now? What are you gonna do from here?” Brantley asked.“There’s a lot you

    WHO BOUGHT THE RIVERS' MANSION?"I regret the day I was born to you as a son. I thought that there was some redemption somewhere for you…but no, you are rotten to the core, I was blind to not have noticed it all these years." Carl took a step forward, frowning in disgust at the man he'd once relied on for protection and called 'Father'."I see you are holding up pretty good. It makes me happy. I need you to stay fit for what I have in store for you." Emille stepped forward and declared with authority. He held a domineering aura, even Pops knew his place.Emille tapped Carl on the shoulder, "let's get out of here!" Carl looked hurt, the frown on his face did not fade. His stomach churned from his father's disgusting attitude and mindset.As they turned to leave, Emille halted, turned back and landed one last warning to Grandmaster. "Oh, and one more thing, if you so much as think of pulling any stupid stun that would hurt any of my siblings again…. perhaps you think that being behind

    Carlson's Bride 1"Where were you?" Mila asked as soon as Carl walked through the door."Oh hey, how was your day?" Carl asked back as he took off his coat and tie, clearly ignoring her question.Mila was sitting on the sofa in his condo, with a tray filled with toast on her lap, wearing his t-shirt. She'd been putting on his clothes all this while because she had not stepped foot neither in the Vert's Mansion or her bungalow, talk less of her apartment."My day was boring, but the evening was very adventurous and funky." Mila replied, filling her mouth with toast."Your turn." She looked up at Carl.He walked over to her and leaned down and planted a kiss on her forehead.He took a seat beside her with a loud breath as though he were an old man."Don't touch what is not yours!" Mila slapped his hand when he stretched it towards her tray. "I'm hungry, for Christ sake!""Oh yeah, get married and let your wife cook for you, not me! By the way, you have some explanation to make." "So do

Mila stood up."Oh, you want us to talk about secrets, how about you tell me how you came to own a mansion at the age of twenty and I had no fuckin idea!" Carl pocketed his hands."Oh oh, busted!" She whispered to herself."What mansion are you talking about?" She stupidly feigned ignorance.Carl narrowed his eyes at her, "Don't take me for a fool, Mila! You better start talking…." Carl pointed a finger at her."Or what….? She challenged, raising her chest at him. She knew that he could never punish her.Carl Chuckled, "I love the confidence," the smile on his face faded. "I'll kick you out!" She scuffed at waved her hands at him, "oh silly you, you don't have the balls to do that, and by the way, I'm not homeless you know. I even have a more spacious house than this your…." She paused, scanning the condo while searching for the best word to attribute it to. "....box!" "Ok, that's enough!" Carl

    CARLSON'S BRIDE 3"Are you really his sister?" Charlotte had calmed down, part of her was scared that she just blundered big time by leaving the wrong first impression."Sit down!" Mila ignored her question and ordered her to sit.There was a little twist on Mila's temple.Charlotte obeyed Mila's order like a puppy."How did you two meet?" Mila started the interview. "I just want to know more about you." Mila added when she saw the look on Charlotte's face, "And don't feel bad that for all this while Carl has not brought you up, a lot has been going on in our family lately, trust me, there never has been a good time to talk about something like this."Mila thought it polite to explain."I understand." Charlotte nodded.Mila knew exactly why Carl never mentioned having a girlfriend___because of Pop's. He must surely love Charlotte deeply not to hide their relationship for all these months.Mila made Charlotte tell her all about herself."We met at a friend's wedding." Charlotte said.B

Brenda called from the stairs.At the sound of Brenda's voice, Mrs White peeled her eyes away from her boys and looked up at her daughter who was on the wheel chair above the stairs."No honey, we are not fighting. How did you climb in your chair by yourself?" Mrs White asked. "I never got off from it in the first place." Brenda's soft voice said."What do you mean by you never got off from it?" Mrs White forgot about Brantley and her husband and began making way towards the stairs."Did your sisters not put you to bed?" Mrs White asked as she ascended the stairs."Nope, I haven't seen them since twilight." Brend replied.Mrs White was stunned. She halted and took a few seconds to breath and calm her self down."What's going on with you and dad?" Brenda asked when her Mother got closer."Nothing you worry about."Mrs White traced her fingers on

    COURT TALES OF TRUTHFourteen minutes.It was almost time……"It is already time, your Honour, we should proceed." Grandmaster stood up and said.That was the advantage of representing yourself."We still have some more seconds, your Honour." The prosecution quickly added.The judge nodded. Grandmaster stood up to say something again, but his words were interrupted by the loud opening of the door.Everyone's attention was directed towards the door.One after another, all those who were against Grandmaster released breaths they never knew they were holding…surprisingly, even the judge.Disappointment was evident on Grandmaster's face.Dr Edgar accompanied Mr Walborn in the courtroom. Mila and Freya waited outside.When Brantley did not see Mila in the two-man procession, he immediately stood up on his feet and went outside."Which of these men is the supposed witness?" The judge asked even before Dr Edgar and Mr Walborn could reach the front of the courtroom.Dr Edgar indicated that i

    THE CLOCK IS TICKING"Can the prosecution explain to the court why your said witness is not yet available?" The judge asked. She was getting impatient, it was evident."Technical transportation issues." The state lawyer responded.He leaned towards Emille and asked, "what is keeping your witness?" He asked in a whisper."What is holding him back is the only reason why they would not want him to testify, but don't bother, he's being escorted by one of the best bodyguards." Emille replied."Excuse me." Emille stepped out of the court to call for Mila.Brantley had arrived in the court too. He was worried, not that Mila could not take care of herself, but because he loved her, so it was natural for him to worry."What the hell is going on?" Emille asked in a concerned tone as soon as Mila answered."We got company." Mila replied."Do you need more refreshments?" Emille asked."I got it, I guess water would be enough to entertain them." Mila said over the phone."Good then, tell me where

    THE AMBUSH.Randy rode in another car, tailing closely behind Mila.When she got to her condominium, she did not step out, rather she called Dr Edgar to bring Mr Walborn outside.Dr Edgar had personally selected a suit for Mr Walborn. The different clothes made him look 10 years younger."You look handsome, Mr Walborn." Mila smiled as she held the door open for him."Thank you, child. At least this doctor here has fine taste in quality clothes, only if he could put those skills to what I put in my stomach." Mr Walborn glared at Dr Edgar. Mila could not help but laugh."You look handsome too." She mouthed to Dr Edgar when Mr Walborn got into the car. Dr Edgar was dressed in a simple shirt and trousers, he had a clean shave. That alone made him look really different."Thank you. You look stunning yourself." Dr Edgar complimented back. Compliments were being poured at randa."Thank you for coming with us." Mila smiled at Dr Edgar."I have to do my job as a babysitter." Dr Edgar gave a sh

    NAKED SLEEPOVERThe newly bonded family decided to spend the night together.Carl and Phelix were pals, they warmed everyone's heart, especially Mila because she never known that he was good with kids.

Everyone together, the smiles, the crying, the hugs, the laughter…this is what she'd ever wanted, not tension, the type of atmosphere she grew up being used to under Pop's roof.It was less than twenty four hours, and everything changed. For once in her life, she did not have to worry about tomorrow. Only if everyone she loved could be here…Only if Dom had lived to experience this different breeze…even just for a day."Fuck this life!"

    BRENDA IS SCARYBrantley laid down on his bed, staring at the ceiling while he pondered about what Brenda told him earlier.Brenda was nosy, everyone knew that, but she wasn't a liar. She could be blunt sometimes, but the kid sure knew when to keep her mouth shut.She was smart too, probably more than all of them…well, except him, he had a photographic memory after all.He knew that she would not tell him all those things except something more was going on in that house. He had plans on saying hi to his mom before leaving, but he left without saying a word. He felt guilty, but he could not do otherwise.With the revelation, he wasn't sure to face anyone, especially his father.He needed time to think. He could not just jump into conclusions, he had to get more details about everything before concluding."She said that she was pushed, by who? Who would want to hurt you?" He pondered out loud.'Then why did she keep quiet only to say it now?' He thought."Who are you going to see in th

    WHAT BRENDA KNOWS'Why do good men die and the selfish monsters live?' Brantley pondered as he walked down the corridors of his father's house empty mindedly."Do you want to bulldoze me before you notice that something is in front of you?" Brenda was starting in front of him, with her short self and crutches.He halted abruptly, for real, he had not taken note of the girl."Oh, I see you've upgraded to crutches. They're cute." Brantley rubbed her head like a kitten.She supported her weight on one crutch, freed her other hand and used it to slap his hand off."Why are you always fighting with father?" The youngest White asked.Bran was stunned, he did not expect that question from here. He was speechless for a few seconds, trying to think of an appropriate response to that."We were talking, maybe a little of a disagreement, but we were not fighting." Brantley looked down and said."You were loud!" She raised one side of her lip, confident about her statement and presumption."Wha

    SWEET REUNION"Nice meeting you." Carl forced a smile.The expression on his grandparents' faces changed immediately.He sunkened his shoulders, 'Just as I had expected, outcast!' The words reverberated in his mind.He wished he could turn back the hand of time to just a 5 minutes ago, he'd make sure to get away from here and prevent none of this from happening."Mason had a son?" Papa Rivers looked at his wife. "Isn't he handsome? He looks like an angel." Mama Rivers praised.Carl raised his brows. 'Did they mean the opposite of what they said, or…he had judged the situation wrongly.He looked at Mila, she smiled at him."How old are you, boy?" Mama Rivers asked."I'm 28 years old, ma'am." Carl held his hands together in front of him as though he was for a religious procession.Mila raised her brows and hung her mouth open at his lie."Nonsense, don't call me ma'am. I am your grandmother. Come here!" Mama Rivers rebuked him and hugged him."Just for the record, he is still 27 years o

    OUTCAST"Why do you want to see Fabiola?" Brantley decided to ask at one point. He just refilled their tea cups.Mama Rivers who was about raising her cup to take a sip, paused mid way. She stared at her husband who also had the same look on his face."Oh, we knew her when she was a kid. Since we were in town, we decided to drop by." Papa Rivers replied."Oh, ok. I see." Brantley nodded. There was an awkward silence among them."We'll see your father and enjoy the view a little before going back." Papa Rivers added."I will be glad to show you around town. I bet they'll be so much to entertain both of you." Brantley smiled."Yeah." And there goes the silence again. ________"I got a text from Brant, he said that the package was at my doorstep." Mila looked at her brothers. They were just touching down back in Limesville."Just as we thought." The ever nonchalantly Emille said.Carl was silent."I bet they got my address because of the media."
