Cherry POV

It's Paulina's burial today. I held on to my sister's hand while Sarah stood away from us. Many people from the neighborhood also came.

Tricia had a veil on and wept so hard.

"We will like to invite Miss Michelson to say some words about the dismissed," someone said.

I looked up and thought of how I had known Paulina all my life, how she had been of help to me after I lost my father but disappeared later on.

I moved out gently and shook.

I moved forward and began to speak of how nice Paulina was to me. Everything that I was saying made me weep more.

Lastly, Tricia was called to speak.

Few neighbors were called out to speak and spoke wonderful things about Paulina before we were called.

I looked at Tricia who held onto her stomach like her baby was going to leave. From what she told me, she is in her fifth month, and some weeks, but her stomach just came out small.

My eyes turned to Sarah who was standing aside. Sarah had tears on her face, and looked at Tricia lik

    Cherry POV The next day, we were at my house. Tricia walked into a room holding onto her stomach. "You can have some rest over there," I said to Tricia who looked stressed. I sat on one of my couches, thinking of the things I had just found out. Alex was close to his father, who told him everything that happened during the birth of Tricia. "Alex, why do you have this picture?" I asked him that day. "My father kept it," he said. I was shocked that day, thinking that my mother was having an affair, but I didn't say anything. Alex told me everything about how his father told him about wanting to lay with my mother a long time ago, but he was scared because my father was in the military. I held back my tears while he said this. "The woman was set up for a one-night stand, and when she discovered that she was pregnant, she called my father and told him," Alex had said. "Her husband hardly had time at home, so after Tricia's mother had her, father paid the doctor to let her die.

    Cherry POV Tricia nodded, taking a deep breath while I sat watching as I had many things running through my mind. Alex, Selena, and Morgan, we need to get our revenge on them. I would say I wasn't smart, not sure if I am now. I was blinded by my love for Alex since we were in high school. I never suspected anything. I still love him now. The thought of my father's family came to me, and I waved it off. I am grateful that they allowed me to go to school. They didn't leave me, although they did it with a tough hand. I earned everything I did to become this. When I left their place, I used a shorter version of my name, Cherry, instead of Chelsea. I know that Alex would come looking for me, but I need to keep my sister for the time being. "You look worried," Tricia said, sitting up. "I am not," I said. " I'm only thinking." She nodded her head and brought out her phone. "Do Alex call you?" I asked her. "I barred his number," Tricia said, and I nodded. It's a good thing that s

    Tricia POV The following morning, I woke to see myself in a strange room. "Ahh!" I screamed, lightly, covering my eyes from the sun that radiated through the window. Cherry walked into the room and pulled the curtain a bit lower. "You should have this," she said, sitting on my bed. She placed a place before me and some drugs with a bottle of water. "Thank you, Cherry," I said, and she smiled. "It's not worth it," she said. "I was meant to take care of you, while you were living with Alex." I looked at her with a sad expression, as I remembered how torturous they were to me. "I only did that because you look so much like my mother," she said. "I would like to know what Mother looked like," I said. But, I didn't want a picture of her. Cherry won't be able to describe her. She was young when mother died. The man who killed mother is also dead. He was killed by his son. Alexander. "I can't give you such," Cherry replied. "I can only give you a picture of her." My eyes were

    Tricia POV To others, it might not look like I am pregnant, so good. I thought of Morgan but later shook my head. It is good that he isn't aware of my pregnancy unless he would mishandle his opportunity. No man would ever be sad to see their children, but I doubt Morgan will. Cherry pulled my hand, and together, we walked to the children, and she played heartily with them, making me laugh. "Let's go home," I said to her. "Why should we?" She asked. "Some rest," I said, pouting my lips, and she laughed. Together, we walked home, stopping by some stores to buy things as my appetite had become more. "Cherry!" I called out. "Yes," she said. "I want that," I said, pointing to children's candy. Cherry gave me a shocking expression, like I did something bad, but I stamped my feet. "Alright," Cherry said. Getting close to me, she told me that I was going to pay her back for the candy as I was not a baby. "But this," I said, pointing to my stomach, and she smiled. "Spare it. I

    Cherry POV It's another week, and I stared at Tricia who happily walked around. "We are going to start planning, today," she said, and I slightly nodded. "Are you sure about this?" I asked her. "Yes, I am," she said. Walking to me, Tricia placed a hand on my shoulder. "I am going to be fine," she said. "If I get tired during our planning, I will take some rest." This got me a little bit at ease. "Alright," I said, placing a hand on her, but what made me more nervous wasn't our planning. When we are done with the plan, would she be able to accompany me on the mission? I can't do this by myself, so I need my sister with me, but will she be able to cope? I opened my mouth to ask, when she spoke up, "Don't be worried about the mission." "Alright," I said. I went about with my work as I waited for her to get herself ready. Soon, she walked to the living room and told me that she was ready. "Alright," I said and dashed into my room. I walked out, carrying my laptop, a tab,

    Tricia POV "Yes, your plan. You should let it out,". Cherry said. I thought for some minutes and then shook my head. All I could think of was Morgan's words, but can I give my brother up to endure torture? Since Morgan said that he doesn't want to act with me as a man, that only mean he would be more hurtful when dealing with men. "Tricia, let me know," Cherry's voice brought me out of my state of thought. I placed my hand on my stomach, then looked at her. "It's terrifying, and may just kill Alex," I said. "What?" Cherry exclaimed. I shook my head looking at her, and could not tell her. Her face turned into a smile, and she stared so deep into my face. "Whatever it is, just let me know," she said, and I took a deep breath. "He wants to torture Alex for the death of his friends, and for his betrayal," I said. "Who is that?" She asked me. I didn't answer her question but continued. "The reason he was eager to marry me when Selena Joyce told him about my situation," I sa

I called to be sure no one had broken into the house. "Yes, it's me," I heard Cherry's voice. I got up from the bed and walked to the door. "Good morning, Chelsea," I said, and she began to laugh. "Why did you call me by my full name?" She asked. "Anyway, take your bath, and come out to eat. I will give you your drug." As soon as she ended her statement, the doorbell rang, and we looked at each other. "Who is there?" Cherry asked as I followed her to the living room. "Alex," We heard. This came to us like a shock. Cherry asked him for some time that she needed to put on something. "Can't I see your body?" He asked. "Pervert!" Cherry said, laughing. She sent me into my room and told me to have my bath and put on a comfortable dress with my mask on before I came out. "I will get your food and drug before opening the door for

She left me for some minutes, but I didn't find rest. Finally, my eyes closed, and I had a horrific dream. In the dream, we went to Morgan's house with Alex. Out of anger, Morgan attacked Alex while Alex attacked Morgan. I also was attacked by Cherry because of Alex, and I also attacked Cherry. Waking up, I let out a scream, and Cherry ran in to join me. "What's wrong?" She asked. The first thing I did was to take my hand away from her, and she let out a sigh. "You heard a terrible dream," she said. I didn't answer any of her questions, but she didn't act upset. After much pestering, I relayed my dream to her, and she smiled. "Do not believe that," she said. "You dreamt of that, because of what we said." "What did we say?" I asked "If we die, we die," she said. I didn't know what else to say

    Morgan POV It was another day, my plans were settled and I watched everything that was unfolding. I was still at home as the time I was to resume would be later. Tricia walked down, dressed, she was going to the complex. "Hey, honey," I said giving her a peck on her cheek. "Hi, Babe," she said. This was something that I didn't like calling on a normal day but I guess as they say, Love changes people. My love for Tricia can't be quenched. We walked to Ethan who smiled on seeing us. After touching his cheek, I walked away. I felt like he was calling out to me but I had an important business to do. Getting to the organization, everyone began to panic. A conference was called and everyone showed their panic. "Our secret has been leaked. Anyone who has done this should kindly signify and leave." I was surprised by how dull they were.

"I wish to discuss it with my wife." She giggled as I ended my statement then got up, placed her hand on my shoulder, then said, "What does my darling husband want to say to me?" Her words made me smile as I looked at her beautiful eyes. "I have been thinking of something," I began. "Since this is my father's house I plan that I should move into my house." "And then?" She asked. "We can sell or rent out this house," Cherry sighed deeply and asked if I had a house. "I bought one some time ago with the money that Morgan gave me," I said. "But it is under renovation." Cherry smiled and hugged me. "My body is all yours," she said and I smiled. "We've done this ever since." I walked to lock the door and walked to kiss Cherry. Just as I was about to penetrate her, she moved me away covering he

    Tricia POV It has been three weeks since our last meeting, and finally, it was the day of my sibling's marriage. I got up early and joyfully and wanted to take Ethan's bath, but checking the time, I saw that I woke up quite early. "I am so excited," I said, hitting my head. Lying back on the bed, I tried to change some sleep but couldn't as my mind kept thinking of my sibling's marriage. My mind went to Miguel's marriage. It was small, nothing compared to his engagement party, but I was sure that my sibling's marriage would be different with Morgan involved. I looked at my darling husband who was very much still asleep. I felt like touching his handsome face but that would mean disturbing his sleep. Each time I tried to catch a sleep, all that came to my mind was my sibling's marriage. Suddenly, I saw Morgan sit up. I also sat up as he checked the time on his phone. "When did you wake up?" He asked me. "While you were asleep," I replied and told him the time. "That is qui

    Morgan POV I laid Tricia's head on my lap. "We should be cool. Tomorrow is our group meeting, and I will be hosting it," I said. "What would you like us to take?" She asked. I understood what she meant by that but it wasn't necessary that someone eats. "What are you expecting tomorrow?" I asked her. "My siblings," she said giggling like a child. ... The next morning, I woke up to see Tricia staring into my face. I rolled her to the other side and kissed her passionately. Our passionate moment was short-lived as Ethan began to weep. "I should get to him," Tricia said. "Taken your bath?" I asked her and she nodded. She took Ethan to bath, and after, I walked to take my bath. "Morgan!" Tricia called when I was done dressing. "What should I tell Nikita to make for the group?" "Nothing," I said then gave her a peck. "We should only take our breakfast, it's not the annual group meeting." She nodded as I ended my speech. "Let's go out for a race," "But Ethan," she tried c

She shook her head and smiled. "Tell me, Mr. Loyd is alive," she said. I stared at her, not knowing what to say. I couldn't lie to her, but why did she ask this question? "I checked your phone last night and heard you telling Bernard how to handle him," she said. "Yes, he is," I said. She smiled and held firmly to my hand. "The old man will die soon and Bernard will be free from his trouble," "And Alexander Loyd?" I asked. She smiled covering her mouth. "Remember telling me not to involve him," she said. "I adhered to your advice." I held onto her hands romantically. "One hell of a mission that I got involved in was my last mission," I said. "Your behavior scared the hell out of me." Tricia wore a smirk as she watched me speak. "I only did that as my fear was greater than my faith in your m

I walked to the car with Tricia and drove to the nearest clinic. "What happened to her?" I asked the doctor after everything was done. "She is in good health now," "What happened?" I asked. The doctor told me to come to his office, and I accepted and told Tricia to wait for me. In the doctor's office, I looked around before taking my seat. "Who are you to her, Mr. Bliss?" "Her Boss," I replied. "Do you know her family?" He asked. "No, I don't," I said. He took a deep breath staring at the wall. "What happened to her?" I asked and the doctor sighed before looking at me. "She had an abortion and lost her womb...," he kept tapping his hands. "She needs some blood before she could walk." I wore an evil smile and told the doctor that I would be back soon. I walked to Tricia and explained the situation. "She can't work w

    Morgan POV The following morning, I woke up with a smile on my face as I looked at the morning sky. "I should see if I can take my bath here," I said to myself. Getting to the bathroom, I saw it neatly arranged and then looked at the bed. We were paired to stay three in a room as they didn't have enough room. I slept on the bed with Alonso while Drake slept on the floor. Drake had pleaded with me last night to let him sleep with me, so Johnny exchanged with Drake. Six people came with me so we weren't much. "Hey, where is Drake?" I asked as I didn't see older Drake on the floor. Alonso yawned, sitting up, and replied, "Maybe he has gone out." I nodded and went into the bathroom. After taking my bath, I took a deep shirt and trouser which I brought. None of my men brought along with them any clothes, they would need to put on the same wear after taking their bath. Alonso walked into the bathroom while I did my button. Drake walked in with a tray and greeted. "Good morning, Bo

I saw the door move and knew that it was Tricia, but I didn't want to open it for her. "If she proves to be a hindrance to my mission, then it's best that I don't allow her in," I said and looked around. Satisfied with what I had packed, I pulled my bag on and then walked to the door. "Morgan, why do you treat me as nothing?" She asked when I got out. "Take care of Ethan and yourself," I said. That being said, I walked away. Getting down, I saw Ethan smile when he saw me and walked to him. I gave him a peck on the head. "Take care of yourself and your mother," I knew that it sounded funny, telling a baby to take care of his mother but my heart felt like saying that. Stepping out, I saw the jeep and some men standing by. "Good morning, Boss," they chorused and I only waved. They were not participating in the mission with me but were to drop me in fron

    Morgan POV We watched as Alex took his sit beside Cherry, who was blushing. The ceremony began with them holding hands. I had told the older Drake that it mustn't be a long ceremony. It should be short but enjoyable. Almost all of us were present. Bam petty, Amsterdam, and Bernard were present. I kept watching the ceremony, Alex was a sure man. He raised Cherry up like it was nothing. I kept thinking of how it would have been if I carried out my revenge plan of murdering Alex. Anyway, it was all thanks to Cherry that I didn't kill Alex. I smiled, remembering how she shouted that she loved Alex on her last visit to the prison. "Morgan!" Tricia called giving me a slight tap. It was only then that I discovered that my attention wasn't on what was going on. An old lady walked in and took a seat. I looked at Tricia and then pointed to the older lady.
