Nina; The real me Chapter 42
As Nina, Henry, and their children finally returned home, the relief of being back in their familiar surroundings was tempered by the heavy burden of the recent ordeal. Nina and Henry, who had been anxiously awaiting for this moment, bent to embrace them in tears of relief streaming down their faces."Oh, thank God you're safe! I don't know what I'd have done to myself if we had lost you. I can't imagine that. " Nina said in tears, wrapping her arms around Sophie and James. "We were so worried."Henry placed his arms around his children, his eyes filled with a mix of relief and concern. "What happened? Hope you didn't get hurt?"Henry exchanged a look with Nina, silently agreeing that the children should be the ones to tell their story. "Let's sit down," he said, guiding everyone to the living room.Once they were all seated, Sophie began to talk though her voice trembled. "Marcus took us to an abandoned hut in the woods. He said... he said that our mother was a bad person because she

After a week, Henry decided it was time to bring everyone together and celebrate the return of the kids and the peace that has been restored to their home. It had been a long journey of fear and worry and he believed a family dinner would help solidify the bonds that had been tested and strained over the past weeks. He wanted to create a space where they could all move forward, leaving behind the shadows of the past and holding onto something that would bring them together.He set the date and extended invitations to everyone including Olivia, their mother, and even Clarissa. Despite the complexities and past tensions, he believed that including Clarissa would help bridge the gaps and create a sense of unity that would help them to start again as a family.As the evening approached, the house buzzed with activity. Maria and Nina worked together in the kitchen, preparing a feast that would make the occasion memorable. The aroma of roasted meats, freshly baked bread, and a variety of s

Nina made her way to the kid's room to invite them for lunch but when she got there she heard their voices so she paused to hear what they were talking about. She stood outside her children’s room. They were talking in low tones, their voices filled with the innocence and curiosity that only children possess. Curious about what they might be discussing, Nina leaned against the wall and decided to eavesdrop on their conversation.Inside the room, Sophie sat cross-legged on her bed, her face was serious as she spoke. James was lying on his stomach, trying to make a draft in a notebook.“Do you think we’re really lucky?” Sophie asked, her voice filled with uncertainty.James looked up, his eyes meeting his sister’s. “What do you mean?”“I mean, with everything that’s happened,” Sophie continued. “Mom and Dad were apart for so long, and then there was all that stuff with Marcus and Aunt Clarissa. It’s been really scary sometimes.”James nodded thoughtfully. “Yeah, but we’re together now.

The next morning was filled with the usual routine of a house coming to life. Breakfast was a cheerful affair, with Sophie and James discussing their plans for the day. Nina felt a renewed sense of purpose, refreshed by the previous evening's bonding. As she was clearing the dishes, the doorbell rang.“I’ll get it,” she said aloud, drying her hands on a towel as she made her way to the door.When she opened it, her heart skipped a beat. Standing there was Mr. Johnson, her former boss. A mix of emotions flooded through her. Why was he here?“Good morning, Mr. Johnson,” she greeted, trying to keep her voice steady. “ I wasn't expecting to see you at all. This is a surprise.” she said beneath breath.“Yeah, Nina, it’s good to see you,” he replied warmly. “I hope I’m not intruding.”“Not at all,” she assured him, stepping aside to let him in. “Please, come in.”As he entered, Henry appeared from the living room, followed closely by Sophie and James. Nina quickly introduced her former boss

The next morning, the house was quiet as Henry and Nina sat at the kitchen table. They had unconsciously walked in there to clear their heads and hopefully think of a way to end the threats. The tension from the previous day’s revelations lingered in the air, and both of them were lost in their thoughts.Henry was the first to break the silence. “Nina, we need to talk about this former boss of yours.”Nina looked up, meeting his eyes. She could see the concern in his face. “What about him?”Henry sighed, setting his coffee cup down. “I think we need to consider going to the police with what we know. Trying to figure out things alone might put us in more danger. I think Mr. Johnson might be the key to finding Marcus. If we tell the police about his connection to Marcus, they can pressure him to reveal Marcus’s whereabouts.”Nina shook her head in disagreement, as her brow furrowed. “Henry, you heard what he said. He’s being watched. If we involve the police, it could put us all in even

The phone on the table distracted them, Henry picked the phone, checked who it was before handing it to his wife.“Who is it?” She asked in a shaky voice but there was no response from Henry. When she looked at the caller's ID she saw that it was an unknown number. Her blood ran cold as she stared at her husband.“Hey you two, go upstairs. Your mum and I need to talk.” Henry told the kids as he moved closer to Nina.“Don't you think it's Marcus on the line?“Marcus? How?”Henry rose up in anger clenching his fist. “You won't listen to me, my instincts tell me it's Marcus on the line. Babe, let's get this guy through Johnson and focus on our lives!“No! I wouldn't betray him cheaply, he's only trying to help us. Let's respect that.” She said and walked away.The evening became tense again, even when they didn't know who it was that called. Nina lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, as her thoughts raced. The house was quiet, but her mind was anything but. Her phone buzzed on the nightst

Marcus walked out from the dimly lit room in rage, his presence sent a cold shiver running down her spine as he approached. His eyes were cold, calculating, and filled with a twisted sense of determination."What exactly do you want, Nina?" he asked with his voice dripping with disdain. “Tell me,”Nina studied him for a moment, she took a deep breath and gathered her courage. "I want freedom, Marcus. I want all this to end. I want to live my life without fear."Marcus's lips curled into a cruel smile. "I never knew you were very smart, my darling. You need freedom, Right? He asked but she remained silent.“Do you want freedom? He asked again but she was quiet. “Is it a yes or a no?” He said in a mad rage.“Yessss, I want freedom from your shackles. I want to live my life in peace.”“Freedom is never free, my darling. Freedom always comes with a price."Nina's heart pounded in her chest. "What do you mean by that?"Marcus began to walk round her with a deliberate and menacing movement

Henry sat in the living room, flipping through a magazine, trying to distract himself from the worry that had been building up since Nina had left. Suddenly his phone rang, and he picked it up, but it was his mother-in-law's number. Thousands of reasons filled his mind as he tried to figure out what could have prompted her call."Hello?" he answered, trying to keep his voice calm."Henry, it's me," Nina's mother said, her voice filled with concern. "How are you? Is everything okay there? Nina was supposed to come to see me, but she hasn't arrived yet. What's going on?” She asked at once.Henry took a deep breath, trying to respond with a calm tone. "Everything's fine, Mom. I tried calling her too, but she hasn't picked up. I guess she's caught up in traffic or something might be keeping her, but let's not panic just yet, everything is fine."There was a pause on the other end, and Henry could sense her worry. "Henry, you don't sound too sure. Are you sure that everything is alright?"

Marcus lay on the cold, concrete floor, in the ocean of his blood, his breath came in ragged gasps. His once confident, domineering presence was now reduced to a pitiful, broken man struggling to fight for his life. Kelly stood over him, with the gun still trembling in her hand. The shock of what she had just done was written all over her.Marcus’s eyes, once filled with cold calculation, now held a flicker of disappointment, anger, and perhaps even a trace of betrayal. He coughed, and the movement sent a fresh wave of pain through his body, he stretched his hand out toward Kelly, but his fingers wavered as if trying to grasp something just out of reach.“Kelly,” Marcus whispered. “Why…why did you do this? I thought…we were on the same side. I thought we agreed… to get revenge.”Kelly’s lips shook as she looked down at him, her eyes brimming with unshed tears. The man lying before her was a shadow of the person she had once known, the man who had manipulated her, twisted her emotions,

The door finally creaked open, and the sound echoed through the warehouse like a gunshot. Nina’s breath caught in her throat as Marcus walked in with Nurse Kelly. The sight of her sent a wave of shock through the room, the collective gasps of everyone echoed in the silence. Kelly’s presence was unexpected, and for a brief moment, everyone seemed frozen in place, as their minds struggled to process this new development.Nina’s eyes locked onto Kelly’s, searching for some sign of what was going to happen next. On the other hand, Kelly’s expression was unreadable. But there was a look in her eyes that sent a chill down Nina’s spine.Marcus stopped in the middle of the room, studying the faces around him with a predatory gaze. He seems to enjoy the fear he saw in their faces. He moved closer to Nina. “I told you, but you wouldn't listen. You wanted to see what I could do. Right?” He asked her as he wiped a tear from her eyes.“See what you’ve caused. Everyone is in a mess because of you.

Inside the cold warehouse, the air was thick with tension. Nina sat bound to a chair. She watched the movement of Marcus in fear. After some time of pacing around, he stood before her with a twisted smile on his face. The sight of him made her blood boil, but she knew she had to keep her composure. Any sign of disobedience could set him off, and the last thing she wanted was to put her family in more danger. He leaned forward to kiss her, but she quickly turned her face.Marcus had been making jest of her for what felt like hours. Every now and then, he would lean in close, his breath hot against her ear as he whispered threats.“You’re so predictable, Nina,” Marcus sneered, pacing back and forth in front of her. “You’re always trying to be the hero, always thinking you can outsmart me. But look where that’s gotten you. Tied up and at my mercy. I thought you’d recognise me when I came, but No!. Can't you see that you're dumb?”Nina’s jaw clenched as she fought the urge to spit in his

Henry's heart pounded as he drove towards the east of the town. He called Olivia to ensure that they were safe while he also informed them about his movements, his thoughts were consumed with fear and anger. “Please be safe out there.” Olivia managed to say.“Sure, be more vigilant as well.” Henry said as dropped the phone.The lead he had just received from Maria felt promising, but he couldn't shake the fear that something terrible might happen to Nina before he could reach her. The idea of Marcus holding her captive, possibly harming her, made Henry's blood boil. He gripped the steering wheel tightly, as he sped down the road.The sudden ring of his phone startled him. He quickly glanced at the caller ID and felt a cold chill run down his spine. It was Marcus. “My goodness!” He exclaimed loudly as he pulled by the road.Henry hesitated for just a moment before answering, trying to prepare his mind for whatever twisted words would come through the line."Henry," Marcus’s voice came

"Doctor?" Nina said, her voice tinged with confusion. "Why didn't you inform us that you were coming? We weren’t expecting you at all."The doctor didn’t respond immediately. Instead, he stepped closer, his eyes fixed on her in a way that sent a chill down her spine. Before she could react, he reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a gun. Nina's heart stopped, and she took a step back, fear paralyzing her."Don’t be a fool, shut your mouth and get into the car," he ordered, his voice cold and unfamiliar. It was then that she noticed something else, his face wasn’t right. The more she looked at him, the more she realized this wasn’t the doctor. His eyes were different Then, with a swift movement, he ripped off what she now saw was a mask, revealing his true face.It was Marcus.Nina’s blood ran cold as she recognized him. His face looked more cruel than before, and his eyes were filled with malice. She tried to scream, but no sound came out. Instead, she found herself frozen on th

“Take it here, and drop it there.” Nina said as she held her husband closely.“We’re doing it, my darling.” Henry told his wife. “I can't wait to start life again with you.Just then, Henry’s phone buzzed in his pocket. He glanced at the screen and saw Kelly’s name flashing. He tapped the screen and put it on speaker. “Henry, listen to me,” Kelly’s voice was urgent, filled with fear. “Don’t go anywhere. Marcus is out there. I just saw him, he looked like he was heading to your house. And I'm very sure he’s planning something.”Marcus had instructed Kelly to call him so that they would be able to know their new location.Henry exchanged a look with Nina, as his heart was pounding. “We need to stay back,” he said, his voice tight with urgency.“Oh my!” What's all these? She asked as she ran outside to alert everyone.“Get inside, now,” Nina ordered, ushering everyone back into the house. They moved quickly. Inside, they locked the doors and pulled the curtains shut. Henry’s mind raced

Kelly looked around in fear as she tried to find her way out of the strange environment. Her heart pounded in her chest with every step she took. She knew Marcus’s men were around, but she had to take the chance. She moved quietly, trying to find an escape route. Just as she thought she was close to a lonely road, Marcus suddenly appeared in front of her."Where do you think you're going, Kelly?" Marcus's voice was low and demeaning.Kelly got startled. She tried to back away, but Marcus stepped closer, his eyes were cold and calculating. "Why are you trying to escape?" he asked, his tone threatening. "Don't you think you are putting yourself in more danger? Hey my darling Kelly, No one leaves under my custody."Kelly swallowed hard, trying to muster her courage but his cold laughter made her angry. She raised her hand to give him a slap but Marcus prevented it quickly and resumed laughing at her in a mocking tone.Kelly felt helpless, she fell on her knees and tears started dropping

Henry knew they were playing a more dangerous game so he decided to get started on the difficult task of processing their visas to leave the country. He knew it wouldn't be easy, but it was their best chance at escaping the clutches of Marcus and Kelly. He made secret calls and filled out the necessary documents, all while keeping a watchful eye on his family.Meanwhile, Marcus grew increasingly desperate and angry. He started calling Clarissa, Nina, and Henry relentlessly, hoping to instill fear and make them slip up. But Henry and Nina had already decided to ignore his calls, understanding that engaging with him would only make matters worse. Clarissa, however, answered one of his calls out of frustration and a desire to confront him."Hello?" Clarissa said, her voice trembling slightly."Clarissa, it's Marcus," came the cold, familiar voice. "You thought you could run away and hide?""I’m not hiding, Marcus," Clarissa retorted. "I’m trying to live my life without your threats."“Ar

Nina held Henry's hand firmly, not wanting him to move an inch. “Henry, please I beg you. Don't go.”“Nina just hold on.” He whispered softly. Henry gave a signal for Clarissa to take the kids to their rooms while he took the next step.Henry glanced through the peephole cautiously. When he recognized the man standing outside, he breathed a slight sigh of relief. It was their neighbor, Mr. Thompson, who lived just three houses down. Henry opened the door slowly, ensuring there were no unexpected surprises waiting behind the familiar face. He wondered what had brought him here, his family just moved here and they barely go out."Good evening, Mr. Thompson," Henry greeted, attempting to hide the unease in his voice."Evening, Henry," Mr. Thompson replied, stepping inside quickly. "I hope everything is going smoothly?”“Sure,” he responded with a nod.“I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but some people were asking about you and your family, they had your pictures with them too. But the
