Joan’s POV

The day went as he planned, and now he sat opposite me, his hands on his chest and his eyes closed, a gentle smile on his face. It was the third time, and for a second, it felt unending.

The familiar sense of irritation engulfed me, and to top my frustration, I saw Mom's phone beside him. He flew all the way to Detroit with her phone, and she didn’t say anything. That meant he knew we were calling her all along, and he didn’t bother to give her the phone.

Jones was more cunning than I had even imagined; he was the devil I knew. And the angel that I didn’t know yet—I just couldn’t get myself to believe how deep he had already gotten into mom's head or the condition she was in.

I didn’t get to see mom last time I went home; it was as though she was trying to avoid me, but she spoke with Fred. I wanted to see it as the resentment she felt towards me sleeping with Fred, but if she could look him in the eyes and not me, then something was definitely wrong.

I just didn’t think of him stooping so low to actually touch Joan.She was crying already as she spoke, my body was fidgeting with anger and tumult. I hated him so much that I wished I could punch his face down to the floor and match him beneath my foot, but it was all in my head.Just there,flicking every switch of resistance I had.My hair acted like a threat to my sanity making my pull on it hard till I felt the lingering pain in my scalp.“Why didn’t you tell me all this while, while wait now”“Because he threatened our lives, he threatened moms life too her made her sick and threatened to kill her and you too.I couldn't tell her anything” Her knees were on the floor now as she wept even more, hearing everything she had just said it was making me wonder how all happened.

    Joan’s POVWe didn’t have to wait for one month to have our lives straight. It was a matter of getting the footage before Jones came back, and then after that, we showed it to the cops. And he was imprisoned.“Check over there; I will check here.” We continued through their files and other things present here, but there was no sign of a camera, not even a lens or something.“Check everywhere; he might put it in the kitchen cabinet." I ran down the stairs, ruffling through the plates present for something, even if it’s a chip or a single piece of evidence of him sleeping with me, but somehow he was smart, and he hid it from the surface of the earth because, why in hell won’t it be in his room or even here?“Found it!” Fred yelled from upstairs. I didn’t even care what he found before I ran up the stairs.“Where is it?”“Here’s a chip; I just saw it alongside some other things."He handed it to me; it was a memory card in a flash drive, and from the looks of it, there was a familiar cam

    Fredericks POVMy insides were sore, mostly my chest. I had tried my best to think less about him, but nothing seemed to work efficiently, not when the scene of him being handcuffed taunted me, those mug shots. He didn’t request to speak with any of his family, nor did he plead guilty.It was as though he was expecting everything.I didn’t care about the social status as much, but in my life, I doubted myself so much. I doubted my relationship with Joan. What if I end up hurting her and she runs away? What if I end up like him? And at the end, I become a freak that repeals people and acts like a total Dutch bag.Everything was messed up; nothing seemed to be making sense anymore, including my state of mind.Joan shifted on the bed, wrapping her hands around my neck. She was bare-naked, and we had just had sex, but right after climax, I slipped back to abject depression.I needed to clear my mind because I just couldn’t get myself to think properly.

    Fredericks POV“So there you have it; are you happy now? I was placed in that cell because of my mother, who is now a fucking mom to aa three-year-ol boy.” The pain hits hard again; she had her own family; maybe she was happy there; she should be happy there; that’s why she chose to ignore the fact that I existed.I still fought back tears because that was all I could do at that moment, and for the rest of the day, Joan didn’t bother asking me any other questions; we simply left in utter silence.I didn’t know what her name was; Dad didn’t tell me her name, and that one time was the only time I got to see her picture, so maybe I had mistaken her for someone else. That should be the truth.‘I didn’t see my mother. If she were really my mother, she wouldn’t run the second time.The front door bell rang, but I didn’t feel motivated to move; whoever it was should move back to where they were coming from.

    Joan’s povHe wouldn’t hear me out; he was becoming such a prick, but I wouldn’t blame him. There was just something off about this woman that didn’t sit right with me; it was as though she was seeking sympathy, which was still obvious, but Fred was too blinded.I was going to find out what really happened, and even though it sucked to actually say this, I knew Jones was a freak, but I wanted to hear his side of the story; it shouldn’t be any different from the story she had proposed, and even if it had to be, I just wanted to know how and what had happened between both of us.I did all I did mostly because of Fred. I had seen the way he covet her return; he deserves more than just lies.I was willing to stoop as low as talking to Jones. Wanting to see him would bring back so much trauma, not like I didn’t have enough drama going on already; I had vouch never to see him again, but just this one time.Maybe I will just sit back home and watch how things play out before everyone; beside

    Joan’s POV“You can take a look now,” the makeup artist said, turning the drafting chair so I stared at my reflection in the mirror. I was left speechless, and she placed the veil on my head, making my heart jitter.It looked so beautiful. I looked this beautiful, and it was a surprise to me at my wedding that I wouldn’t see my reflection till the final touch, just staring at the final touch.“Do you like it?” She said, patting my cheek with a makeup brush.“It’s perfect"“Well, I hope the groom is more shocked than you because you look stunned," she said, and with a fine touch, she kissed my forehead.It was my wedding day, and I had been up since 5 a.m., but it was worth it; the look was perfect.Few hours from now, Fred and I would be arriving in the church to exchange our vows before the reception, and even after so much planning, I still felt a knot in my belly, my heart pounding and my hands itching to be held by him.I imagined what he would look like and what his reaction woul

    TWO YEARS LATERJoan’s POVThe weather seemed so cold today. I stretched my hands to feel his body, but it's nowhere to be found—not even close enough after rolling to the edge of the bed.“Baby,” I whispered, yet nothing at all"Babe, where are you?"Yet it was all so quiet. I waited a little; maybe he went to the bathroom. Looking at the side of the bed, it’s just 6 a.m. in the morning, so he either went for a run or would be back soon, so I waited, but it clocked nine and I was still on the bed.It’s a Saturday, and not just like every Saturday, it’s my birthday. I had expected him to wake me up with kisses and maybe good morning sex, but no, he chose to go out instead. I felt so disappointed in him.Picking up my phone I called him, but his phone was ringing, and he wasn’t answering. Fred was a sucker for his smartphone; he only slept two inches away from it every night, so I could swear that he saw my calls and heard all my endless voice messages, and he chose to ignore them.It

George, who had just been shot in the arm, said he was bleeding on the floor and had now been carried away by the paramedics.Then I stared back at this embarrassment of a father. He held a smug look on his face as she stared deadpan at me.“You don’t have what it takes to pull the trigger; you think having balls like a man makes you any stronger; no, it doesn't; do your worst; you are just like me anyway.""Never; I am nothing like you; I never will be." I yelled, forbidding whatever he said. I had fought too much to remove that thought from my mind. I didn’t waste money on so much therapy just so he could look me in the eye and call me a replica.I was nothing like my father—nothing at all.“Fight it all

    Joan’s POVAfter mom's surgery, we were to go home and probably come to pay her regular visit, but that wasn’t the only good thing that had happened.Fred and I left the hospital and went back home, just to hear West crying. It was concerning, given the fact that Lisa should be consoling him, but he was banging on the door and crying bitterly when Fred and I pulled up at the house.“Hey baby, I am coming,” I said, rising towards the door and hitting on it so Lisa would open the door. I hoped she didn’t vent her anger on the little child who did absolutely nothing to cause her this much misery, but it seemed she wasn’t going to open the door, so Fred called her, endlessly hoping she would open the door but still doing the same thing.“Did she lock us out for good? You gave her the house, didn’t you?”“Yes, but is it not too quick to throw us out? I mean, I have things in there too." We started off by calling her name and banging on it even more. But it's still the same thing.“Move asi

It's already morning, like most of the morning we had in this house. I wasn’t prepared to stand; I just wanted to survive the day while doing absolutely nothing.But it was mom's surgery; she needed me there.

Get your head straight for once in your life, would you?"“Is mom okay? Where is she? What happened to my mother?" I yelled, pulling his collar. If anything were to happen to mom, I wouldn’t survive past today, and I made him know that with the way I reacted.“She’s fine, just a little seizure, and the surgery commences tomorrow, so we have to be there tomorrow unfailingly in the morning, and here you are, blaming me for taking time to see our mother; you are just, ahh, what will I do with you?”“Don’t talk to me like that; how would I have known?" I whined, feeling the pain of guilt down my chest; the liquor I had taken quenched, and my little uproar of courage died. I found myself wanting to cry again, but my eyes were tired, and if they had a mind of their own, I bet they would purge out of the socket. I had cried way too much today, b
