Janet couldn’t sleep peacefully the entire night.She was having nightmares about various things.Like, her mother got to know everything, and she again fell into a coma.Edwin got to know about the pregnancy and forced her into abortion.Chesley got to know about the pregnancy and tried to kill her and her child.Edwin got to know about the pregnancy and locked her inside his villa. When she gave birth, he snatched the child away and Chesley was holding her child and laughing like a maniac.Every dream of her made her restless the entire night.When she woke up with this black dark circle, Rebecca only felt distressed.“Didn’t you sleep last night?” she couldn’t help herself from asking. “I did, maybe I wasn’t used to sleeping here,” Janet said and Rebecca just shook her head disappointed.“You are sleeping in this bed all your life, Nothing changed.” Rebecca caught her lies and Janet ate her food silently.“Get ready, we are going somewhere,” Rebecca informed while picking up the d
“Careful,” Janet heard Edwin say and moved away from him hurriedly.“Are you OK?” Edwin asked, and Janet nodded timidly.She wasn’t ready to face Edwin yet, but what could she do when he took the initiative to come to her?“I am fine,” Janet said, looking downward toward the floor.“Where are you looking at? Can’t walk properly?” Edwin said in a scolding tone.He was concerned she would hurt herself.He came to find out why she didn’t return home last night.He thought she was disturbed, so she stayed with Rebecca, but when he didn’t find her in the office, he was worried.He called Elisa took Rebecca’s address and ended up here.“I didn’t notice,” Janet replied slowly and Edwin exhaled annoyed.“Where are you coming from?” Edwin asked.“Went to see the doctor,” Janet replied genuinely.“Are you feeling sick? Why do you need a doctor?” Edwin was worried.He had noticed her vomiting a few times at his home. He thought she must be having some general issues. If she needed a doctor, it mu
After reaching her room, Janet silently closed her door and walked to the balcony.She called Rebecca, and the angry young girl received it with a scolding.“If you again come to me crying after spending some day with that asshole, I’m sure I would kill you.” Rebecca couldn’t hold her rage anymore.Why this girl doesn’t think about herself?Now she had to think about this new trouble when all the troubles in her life were getting never-ending.“I swear I haven’t taken this decision impulsively,” Janet said, and Rebecca wasn’t ready to believe it.She knew how much this girl loved that man, though he never deserved her love.“Then what it is if it’s not an impulsive decision?” Rebecca asked.“Rebecca, listen to me, and don’t be angry,” Janet said and Rebecca stayed silent.“I want this, with or without Edwin,” Janet said, caressing her stomach. She was confident about this.This is her child, and she would keep it anyhow.Her decision wouldn’t change.The connection she was feeling wit
Janet and Rebecca were sitting in the cafe and Rebecca ordered a coffee while Janet ordered an orange juice, as the doctor had advised her to avoid caffeine.“So, tell me your plan.” Rebecca directly got into the business.“I want to leave the country, Rebecca,” Janet said and Rebecca was surprised.“Are you sure?” Rebecca didn’t expect her decision to be that serious.It was too sudden for her to digest.“Yeah, I have thought about it, I can’t get out of Edwin’s grasp if I stay here,” Janet said, and Rebecca understood her concern.“Did you try to talk with Edwin? What if he agrees?” Rebecca asked concerned.“And take a chance to lose my baby? What if he agrees? He was still engaged to that girl. What I would be in his life? And what about my child?” Janet asked and Rebecca inhaled.She knew it wouldn’t be acceptable for Janet anyhow.She wouldn’t live like his mistress and ruin his family even though her situation is different.In her life, Chesley was someone who was ruining their
“I… I was…” Janet couldn’t come up with a plan.But Edwin’s eyes went to Janet’s, and he noticed she was holding a shopping bag.“You went to shopping?” Edwin asked. Janet looked toward his gaze and remembered she had gone to buy some necessary things for her mom.She wanted to send these to her when she would meet her tomorrow before leaving.Rebecca had assured her she would take care of her, but Janet wanted to cover as much as possible before leaving.The doctor has advised her to keep Rim in their hospital as it wouldn’t be wise to move her at this moment. So, she could only leave Rim behind.“I was feeling bored, so I went to buy something for Mom,” Janet explained.“You could have informed me. I would have ordered Ben to buy them,” Edwin stood up with a defeated sigh and walked toward his room without further argument.He was worried about her, so he returned early.But here she was roaming around without caring for her health.Janet also sighed in relief and walked toward her
The next morning, Edwin and Janet were having breakfast calmly when Janet spoke out.“Can I take half a day off today?” Janet asked.She wanted to take a leave as she had various things to manage before she left the next morning.She had finally sold her house as there was no need for her to keep them.Once Rim’s health got better, she would take her along with her and permanently settle in Italy.That’s where she was going to move, as the designer she was going to work under lived there.She was a generous lady, close to her mother’s age.When Janet agreed and informed her about her concern about her accommodation, she offered to cover her for that.Though she needed to pay rent every month, she didn’t need to go house hunting and could settle there the day she landed in Italy.But she knew she would need some money before her first salary came and the house was her only savings.She spent all the other money she had on Rim’s hospital fees.She needed to buy some necessary things befo
When Edwin walked inside, he was surprised to notice the house decorated with flowers and candles. The red and white theme looked so perfect that he was mesmerized.It looked like a restaurant rather than his house.He walked inside curiously and noticed Janet setting the table.She was wearing a beautiful red gown which perfectly matched the theme of the decoration.Janet looked up, noticing him, and smiled at him.“You are back? Go freshen up. I have prepared something for you. Go and get changed,” Janet said, returning to her work.“What’s all this?” Edwin was looking around and it looked nothing like they had ever done.It would be a lie if he said he wasn’t shocked.How Janet was keeping a meter distance from him he would never expect something from her even in his distant dream.“It’s a surprise for you. Go and get changed. The food won’t taste good if it gets cold,” Janet urged, and Edwin could only walk upstairs.When he entered the room, he noticed a white tuxedo was placed o
Janet woke up in Edwin’s arms.It was still late at night around 4 am, but she needed to leave before Edwin woke up.She promised Rim to meet her before leaving, too.She noticed the person sleeping beside her peacefully.She wanted to make yesterday’s night special, it would be the last memory left behind to each other.Maybe Edwin would hate her after today, but she was making it easy for both of them.Janet would start a new life away from the shadow of her past with her baby, while Edwin could marry Chesley and settle in his life.She didn’t want to be stuck in the tug and war between them.She would rather take her broken heart and leave from here.She slowly removed his hand from her waist and placed a peck on his lips.“I have loved you, Edwin. With all my heart. You have been my first man, my first love. You will always remain in my heart. But we can’t stay together,” Janet said in a whisper-like tone.Edwin was sleeping so peacefully that Janet wanted to kiss him again.She sl
“Hello, everyone. Welcome to the grand wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Wilson. Let’s welcome the bride and congratulate them for completing 25 years together.” The announcer announced while the door opened and there the beautiful bride was standing, wearing a beautiful mermaid-style wedding gown.She was holding a bouquet of White Lily’s with both hands tightly.Janet walked forward while Eric, and his younger brother, Ezra, were escorting her to the aisles.Erica and Edith, Janet’s third child are standing beside them holding the rings.Janet’s children have grown up and even though with time they had become busy and Janet forgot about Edwin’s promise to give her a wedding, Edwin didn’t forget it.So, on their Twenty-fifth wedding anniversary, Janet was walking the aisle though her children were close to marriageable age.Janet was at first shy and denied Edwin’s idea, but Edwin was adamant and finally persuaded her somehow.“Mom, feeling nervous?” Janet’s youngest child, Ezra, whispered in J
“How are you feeling now, Elisa?” Janet asked while serving her a plate filled with food.Elisa was in her advanced days of pregnancy and with time she was feeling uncomfortable every day.“I am good,” Elisa said while taking the plate.Janet served plates for Rebecca and her and sat together.They came for a picnic in Edwin’s farmhouse where they wanted to spend some quality time.Edwin was standing with Rabecca’s husband and Ben. They were, as usual, taking about some business matter while the ladies were sitting together.Eric and Erica were running in the field as they had already finished their lunch and Rim was looking after them.Eric’s grandparents were also there and sitting in the distance while watching the children enjoying their time.“Why did you serve so little for yourself?” Elisa asked, noticing Janet’s plate.“I am not feeling well for some days,” Janet said, and this made the environment tense.“Have you informed Edwin about your condition? He will take you to the
“When did you remember everything?” They have returned home and sitting on the living room sofa.Edwin was lying on her lap while Janet was caressing his hair.The TV was turned on, but they were only busy with each other.“The day I woke up in hospital,” Janet said and Edwin stood up and looked at her with a frown.“And you are only telling me now? That’s why you were behaving abnormally?” Edwin was taken aback by her revelation.Janet knew her reason was useless, and she was worrying unnecessarily.But she had suffered a lot through these years, and she was feeling insecure when she woke up.That’s why she didn’t know whether she wanted to tell anyone about her health.“Why?” Edwin didn’t understand why she hid it for so long.It’s been a week since Edwin brought her home.Why she was telling him the truth now?“I was thinking useless things. It’s not important anymore,” Janet said but Edwin wasn’t having it.He wanted to know what was bothering her.“Nothing related to you can be u
Edwin didn’t know why Janet had returned to the same sea beach, where they had always loved to come together.They have spent the best times of their life here and those memories were precious.But she didn’t remember their marriage, so there was no way she remembered that beach.But Edwin didn’t know a big surprise was waiting for him.When he got off the car it was already the time of sunset.He ran toward the beach as Janet’s location was showing there.After walking for a while, he noticed that familiar figure he was running after.She was standing there facing the sea and her beautiful long hair was flowing beautifully in the breeze.“Janet,” Edwin called, and Janet turned to look at him.Her face looked so peaceful, and when she turned completely, Edwin noticed she was holding a red bouquet in her hand.What was she doing here, Edwin was wondering, but looking at her Edwin was feeling a distinct feeling.She was looking at him like she used to do before.Before Edwin lost her, s
Edwin didn’t expect he would find Janet unconscious when he returned.He anxiously called the doctor and this time the matter looked serious.Janet’s condition was unstable, and the doctor advised to move her to the hospital.The doctor was confused as to why her health condition deteriorated so much when they were getting good results, but they could only try their best to cure her.Elisa was taking care of the children while Edwin was anxiously waiting for any good news.The doctor took a while to come out after checking Janet and Edwin knew the news wouldn’t be good.“Mr. Wilson, her vitals are good and everything looks normal, but it was like she went into a deep sleep. You can say she was in Comma, but it was not like there was anything wrong with her health, she was just unwilling to wake up,” The doctor's explanation was confusing.“What do you want to say? When would she wake up?” Edwin was only concerned about one thing.He wanted her Janet back, even if she never remembered
Janet was sitting with her children while they were playing on the living room floor and Edwin was doing something on his laptop.“Mommy, look we have made our house,” Erica showed her the makeshift house that she made with Lego.“Beautiful,” Janet said with a smile, though the house looked anything but house.“Dad, look,” Eric called Edwin to show him his house.Eric who was always ready to get appreciation from Edwin asked for Edwin’s confirmation.Erica was always the princess of Edwin and Janet, but Eric got connected with Edwin the most and always tried to ask his opinion on every tiny thing.Maybe it was the boy's things trying to connect with his father.“Nice, just you need to…” Edwin got up from his place and sat on the floor to help him renovate his house.Erica also ran toward him to get some help and Edwin helped her to make a pink house for her doll.Everything was so perfect yet Janet didn’t know why Edwin was still keeping his distance.Edwin returned to his work after
“Do you think he is impotent?” Janet asked and Elisa almost spitted her coffee out of shock.“What the hell? Where did this thought come from?” Elisa asked laughing, and Janet frowned.“Otherwise, why won’t he touch me?” Janet asked and Elisa couldn’t stop her laughing hearing her reason.Janet and Elisa were sitting in the Wilson group cafeteria and drinking coffee when Janet started this conversation.Edwin had brought Janet to his office as promised, and Elisa was giving her company as Edwin had an important meeting.“Though I hate this conversation, I can assure you he is not,” Elisa said and Janet was confused.“Why are you so sure?” Janet asked and Elisa sighed.“Janet, are you sure you need to discuss this matter only with me? He is my brother and I shouldn’t discuss his sexual life, at least. It’s so creepy,” Elisa said with disgust and Janet understood.This conversation must be making her uncomfortable.But Janet didn’t know who to talk with other than Elisa when this matter
One month later,Edwin was slowly getting back into his usual life.He was going to the office regularly and Eric and Erica had joined a school in Sydney.Everything was getting back to normal.Eric and Erica had gotten used to their life here and though they sometimes ask about William, they weren’t as much concerned as Edwin had thought they would be.Maybe they also think of him as a replaceable part of their life, which was a relief, because he would never compromise about this matter.William was a dark chapter in their life and he made sure he would never get a way back to their life.Edwin was trying hard so that they completely forgot that horrible person.Children’s memory is limited and someday maybe they would forget someone named William existed in their life.Janet was sitting on the bed while waiting for Edwin.It’s been more than a month since she had got consciousness.Though she didn’t remember about their marriage or anything about Edwin something was bothering Janet
Edwin was sitting in his office, and Ben entered with a file.“Did you get any news?” Edwin was impatiently waiting for any clue about William.He was still in Sydney because Edwin had blocked all the airports and the bus stops for him and unless the earth had engulfed him or the sky had hidden him, he couldn’t hide for long.“Yes, he was hiding in an old abandoned building. He thought we wouldn’t find him there,” Ben said with a scoff, and Edwin laughed mockingly.“He had underestimated our power. If we weren’t that ignorant, we would have found Janet early,” Edwin was so regretful about that.He thought Chesley wouldn’t keep Janet in the country, so they neglected this part, Janet could be anywhere nearby.Only if they have searched carefully.But William wasn’t lucky this time.“Our men have taken him to the warehouse, what do you want to do? Should I call the police and inform them of his whereabouts?” Ben asked, but Edwin wasn’t ready to show him mercy.He dared to touch Edwin’s
