MIA’S POV

“Use my card,”I stammered, a bit shakily as I handed my card to the saleswoman who was carefully packaging up her new phone.

The overhead fluorescent lights stuttered, bathig the slick counters and ranks of devices with their near clinical glow. There was the faint smell of plastic and new electronics mixing with staccato conversations from customers that wandered in, paired off now and then by beeps coming from further into department stores.

I was getting nervous and each beat of my heart intensifying as I was looking forward to the time when I could have a grip on my new phone. Finally I can browse the web and look at my kid. Time and time again, I was somewhat pulled the sweet voice of my child as that innocent— yet adorable face fills into my mind streaming down with joy in one hand but on the other side creates a sense overpowering emptines.

It was a whirlwind of emotions I had left Olivia's office with, then come directly to this store for the one thing on my list.

    MIA’S POVMy hands continued trembling as my heart shattered more and more into pieces. I couldn’t move. I just kept remembering that I had lost my child. Tears rolled down my face as I clung to the chair I sat on in the car like a dead body. My whole body went cold, and I could feel my heartbeat slowing down. The world outside the car window blurred into a distant haze, a mere backdrop to the hurricane of grief consuming me.I couldn’t believe I never had the opportunity to see my own child until she died. I didn’t know how she looked, how she sounded, how she smelled, her favorite food. Worst of all, I could never hear her call me Mom. What had I done to deserve such cruelty from God? The air around me felt thick, suffocating, and every breath was a struggle, a painful reminder that I was still alive while she was not.I broke down more in tears and shuddered, banging my hand aggressively on the steering wheel. The sharp pain in my hand was nothing compared to the agony in my hear

    LYDIA’S POV“Can you get the fuck out of my way! What the fuck is your problem?! Huh?!”The words pierced the air with the sharpness of shattered glass, each syllable laced with venom that hung thickly in the room. It was a visceral, electrifying moment—the first time I had ever heard anyone address Joshua with such raw contempt. My body froze, rooted to the spot, my mind struggling to process the audacity of the scene unfolding before me. My eyes, wide and unblinking, captured every agonizing detail as if in slow motion. Standing before Joshua was Claire—an old hag with a face that seemed etched by the cruel passage of time, each wrinkle a testament to a life embittered. Her presence was a stark contrast to the sleek, modern office, a grotesque figure in a sea of polished surfaces and pristine attire. Not only was she old and unattractive, but her demeanor was also laced with an audacity that was almost admirable in its boldness.As the initial shock began to fade, I willed myself

    MIA’S POV“Damn it! Why can’t he just stay out of my lane?! For Christ’s sake!” I shrieked under my breath, my voice trembling with barely restrained fury. My teeth ground against each other, as if trying to shatter the very essence of my anger, and my fists clenched so tightly that my knuckles turned a ghostly white.My body was a volcano on the verge of eruption, burning with a conflagration of rage, frustration, and sorrow. Every step I took away from Joshua felt like I was trying to escape a whirlpool of emotions threatening to pull me under. The corridor stretched endlessly before me, each footfall echoing the tumultuous storm raging within. “He just had to piss me off!” I continued to fume silently, the words looping endlessly in my mind like a broken record, amplifying my ire with every repetition until I reached my office.I pushed the door open with a force that rattled the hinges and then slammed it behind me so hard that the sound reverberated through the room, a physical

    “Thank you so much.” I pulled away from Cole after nearly two minutes of sobbing into his broad chest. My body still trembled, the remnants of my emotional storm leaving me feeling raw and exposed. His shirt was damp from my tears, and I could feel the warmth of his body radiating through the thin fabric, a stark contrast to the cool air of the room. My heart felt like it was made of glass, fragile and ready to shatter at the slightest touch.I instantly felt weird and couldn’t bring myself to look him in the face. I used the back of my hands to wipe away my tears, my fingers trembling slightly as I tried to compose myself. The skin around my eyes was puffy and sore, and I could feel the sticky trails of tears drying on my cheeks. “Thank you,” I repeated, my voice barely above a whisper. The words felt inadequate, but I didn’t know what else to say. My mind was a whirlwind of confusion and vulnerability, and I couldn’t understand why he was so quiet.Finally, I gathered enough coura

    LYDIA’S POV“Is it my wife you called a bitch?” Joshua spat, his voice low and seething with anger. His eyes bored into mine with an intensity that felt almost tangible, narrowing into sharp, menacing slits as his brows furrowed downward in a deep, unyielding glare.“This is not the first time you have said or referred to her that way, Ly. Yes, you are my friend, but I do not appreciate you referring to my wife in such a manner,” Joshua continued, his voice growing more incensed with each word. His jaw was set, the muscles clenching and unclenching with barely contained rage.A wave of bewilderment washed over me, mixing with my own rising anger. Was he seriously defending that stupid old hag who had just embarrassed him in front of his entire staff? The same woman who had humiliated him, making him look weak and foolish? It was pathetic to listen to, or had that woman bewitched him somehow?“But, Jay, she practically embarrassed and humiliated you in front of your staff. Your subordi

    MIA’S POVLydia and I stared at each other for several seconds as she entered my office. The tension in the air was palpable, like the oppressive weight of an impending storm. The only emotion I felt was heartbreak, a deep, gnawing pain that seemed to consume my very soul. Lydia was the last person I wanted to see. I wasn’t ready for her drama, especially not now, when I was still mourning the death of my daughter.I looked away, unable to bear the intensity of her gaze. Lydia continued staring at me, her eyes narrowed in a frown. Her expression was a mix of irritation and something else, something I couldn’t quite place. Yet, she said nothing, the silence stretching between us like a taut wire about to snap.“We need to talk,” Lydia began, her voice laced with anger, each word dripping with unspoken accusations.I didn’t even look at her. Instead, I closed my eyes and heaved a deep sigh, trying to keep my composure. My heart felt like it was shattering into a thousand pieces, each fr

    MIA’S POVJoshua continued staring deeply at me without saying a word, but his eyes spoke volumes. A storm of emotions swirled in their depths—anger, frustration, perhaps even a trace of sadness. It was none of my business, though. I didn’t want to see anyone at all. I just wanted to be left alone, to retreat into the silence and stillness that offered me a fleeting solace. The tension in the room was palpable, thick like the humid air before a summer thunderstorm.I averted my eyes, my gaze sliding away from his piercing stare, and turned to leave. Suddenly, Joshua’s hand clamped onto my right arm with a vice-like grip. His fingers dug deeply and tightly into my skin, the pressure causing a sharp, stinging pain that spread like wildfire up my arm.“Where do you think you are going?” Joshua demanded, his voice like a thunderous wave crashing against the shore. Each word reverberated through the room, bouncing off the walls and echoing in my mind.I turned sideways, casting a glance at

As much as I liked Cole slightly, I just wasn’t in the mood to want to have any conversation with anyone. The weight of the day’s events hung heavily on my shoulders, making even the thought of talking feel like an unbearable burden.I stared at Cole, my vision blurring slightly as I tried to hold back the tears I already had ready to pour out. The lump in my throat grew larger, making it hard to swallow. “I ummm… I wanted some night breeze,” I stuttered, my voice barely a whisper. I gulped down saliva, trying to ease the dryness in my mouth. The cool night air brushed against my skin, but it did little to calm the storm raging inside me.Cole smirked slightly, a playful glint in his eyes. “Okay. I just wanted to have some smell of the books and the fresh air. It helps me sleep better after the day’s work,” he said, his voice gentle and soothi

She sat on the bed, feeling much better than she felt the other night.The flashback of how John came so close to her yesterday stuck to her brain. It was a feeling that she couldn’t explain, just like genuine love, but she didn’t think it was love, probably immense disgust.Her hands wrapped around her chest, she sat on the bed silently and also strayed her thoughts to the new bride, or rather old wife as she claimed. The colossal part of Mia felt she overreacted about the whole situation. Why was she even angry? Was she married to Him or was he entitled to telling her about his past life? Irrespective of this incongruent thought of hers, she still felt bad, or rather angry.“Good day, ma’am”. A voice popped from outside which was accompanied with a knock on the door. It was the new cook “Yes, please come in” The cook came in with a tray in his hand. It had the

    My heart raced so fast when Lucifer walked into the room. Thankfully, before he walked in, I collected Rogers hoodie and wore. I was sure he saw him when he came in and that’s why he came to my room. Lucifer never visited me so late at night, so the red flag was very glaring.I managed to convince him and he left the room not so suspicious. Thanks to God that my ears are very sharp and I heard the creaking floor boards as he approached. I guess God was on my side too.“That was a close one” I sighed with my hand pressing my chest after he left. Rogers who hid behind the curtains also came out.“You need to leave now!!” I snapped at him as he tried grabbing my arm romantically.“ and why should I?” He held my cheeks and tried kissing me but I tossed him aside.“Don’t do that again… please” he dragged and looked at me sternly.

Good day Chap, you must be Jose ain't it?"I queried and squatted down to his level. He stared at me befuddled, but then I was smiling at him. He had a clear face and did have semblance with his father."Yes I'm Jose, how do you know my name, Mister?" He questioned with a childish voice. His left eye was slightly closed. I was about to answer, when there was a thunder clap.I looked upwards and the clouds where forming and sure a heavy rain was about wetting the soil."nada de qué preocuparse, chico (Nothing to worry about boy)" I said in Spanish. I scoffed and placed my hand on his face. " Jose, con quién estás hablando? (Jose who are you talking to?)" A feminine voice resounded from behind. " Who are you?"A lady questions with weak English and Spanish accent. The lady drags Jose away from my clasp. I huffed and stared at my

    " Why did you summon us all? Brad snapped at me. It was the next day after I came back from Carl's house and I summoned everyone to the living room for a pack meeting. Carl was also invited but he hadn't arrived then."Just wait for Carl, there is something important I have to discuss and share with everyone." I said while Brad folded his hand gloating at me.The whole pack members were gathered and itching to hear what I had in store. Usually, I always did the listening but this time, doing the speaking did come with some ecstatic feeling."I don't have the whole fucking day Alina, you either speak now or I will waltz out of here."Brad bawled pointing his hand at me. My hands were now folded."Calm down Brad, she has never asked for permission to speak so give her this one chance"Lady Macbeth said. She seized a moment with my glare. We gaped at each other and she nodded first with a smile and blinked her eyes for about half a minute."Okay then" Brad said and sat back on his seat.

    "I Armnado Luca, this day reject you, Elsa Roland as my mate" These were the words of Armando, my mate or rather my Ex mate now. It was my twentieth birthday and everything was going smoothly before this happened. Ironically, the party was hosted and organized by Armando unknown to me that he had a hidden agendum. Tears filled my eyes on hearing this and I stared deeply into his eyes and I saw no remorsefulness in him but rather he looked all serious." Armando, what is this, you are joking with me right? '' I playfully said and touched his arms as he was used to playing silly pranks on me and so i thought it was one of them. But unfortunately, my thought was not it and so it just remained my thought alone and not his."I am very serious Elsa. This is not a joke" He sternly uttered to me. My eyes became watery and my breathe ceased for some seconds. How was it even possible that Armando who had only shown me love would do this to me publicly. He was actually holding a microphone when

    " You stand there and tell me you are sorry?" I bellowed. I brought the knife very close to his neck. He stayed there and moved not. "I do not care what you want to do with me. I know whatever comes my way from you, I really do deserve it. I was a son of a bitch and treated you like scum. You did everything to please me, but I was too stupid to have seen it." He voiced with a shaky voice that passed so many emotions, like a strummed guitar. His hands are still pointing downwards. His eyes quirked a second. I glared at him for seconds. My hands trembled as I had a very strong grasp on the knife. My face contorted and my eyes narrowed. All I felt in me was total bitterness. I really felt the urge to stab him but I was trying so hard to resist the demon." I just feel like killing you Rogers!!!! " I growled and placed the side of the sharp knife to his throat. I pressed slowly, but then it tipped on his neck. Suddenly blood started dripping little by little. I gnashed my teeth and wa

    "When we have cookies, I play a game with her", Zelda said smiling and also relaxed on a seat." Game? What game is that?" I inquired, quite eager to find out what it was. My hands were laid on the table and eyes fixed on Mrs Zelda."It's a kind of questioning and truth" she said." Do you mean truth or dare?" "No, not that. Now the question and truth session is slightly different from truth or dare. In this game, before you pick a Cookie, someone would ask you a question and you have to be truthful to the core to answer the questions asked or the God of cookies is gonna take the cookies away." Her mom said and I chuckled." Disclaimer, Its just fiction and it's just some fun thing I do with her . She think it's true, so I use it to get answers from her when she lies to me because she loves cookies so much" her mom whispered to me because she was seated beside me.
