It was noon when Mira finally stood from her chair to leave for the meeting.Cassy had just called, informing her that she was in her way to the Les Mada hotel.Their client was a Frenchman and Les Mada was the perfect restaurant to dine since you would find all the cuisines you need.Mira had just opened the door Only to be greeted by the sight of Miranda in a wheelchair outside her office.She was about to ignore her and walk away when Miranda's weak voice echoed in the hallway." Miss Jones, I know my mistake now. Please forgive me." The Miranda before Mira was different from the proud peacock they saw yesterday.In w single night, she was reduced to such a state.Actually, it's not like Mira was heartless. He just couldn't get to forget the scene of Jonas' burnt back That alone was enough to fuel her anger over the woman.If anything, it would be better to just leave her here and come back tomorrow.But hearing her voice, she suddenly softened her heart.Irregardless of how seri
The girl's eyes were trained to the door to the man who stood there with a graceful smile on his face. His blue Royal suit fitted his body like a second skin. The top two buttons of his shirt were opened revealing his well tanned skin and sexy collarbones.Looking at the Greek god infront of her, Mira could swear that she met only afew men who could outshadow the beauty of the man before her, ofcourse Timothy was among them.Snapping back to her real senses, Mira smiled back as she made her way to the man and extended her hand for a handshake."bon après-midi c'est un plaisir de vous voir Juan Carlos." Mira greeted politely. ( Good afternoon, it's nice to see you Juan Carlos?"With a wide grin in his Face, the man smiled, showcasing two dimples and his pearly White teeth. Taking the back of Mira's Palm, he kissed it making Mira to blush. That was something Intimate in the country but Mira understood that it was a way of greeting among the French." bon après-midi toi, le plaisir est p
" How's my little champ?" Timothy asked, picking up Jonas with one hand while the other carried the shopping bag." But I am not little anymore Daddy! I am a big boy now." Jonas complained Making Timothy burst out laughing.The little one had been complaining about being big and not small anymore." Oh really now? But Daddy can still lift you with one hand." Timothy replied.The last time they had that conversation, he had told her that unless she grew big and he couldn't lift her with one hand anymore, that's when she would be considered as big.Timothy pouted, feeling aggrieved.His Aunt Mira had told him that if he wanted to be big and heavy, he had to tahr plenty of Vegetables and milk.Despite loathing those two, Jonas had been taking them without complaining in hopes that he would get big soon.He didn't want to be referred as to small anymore.He wanted to be strong and protect his Aunt Mira.It Seems that his efforts weren't paying him off.In that case, he will have to try ha
" It's so beautiful." Mira commented as she took a step Inside.The extreme beauty showed that whoever planned this had really put his all to make the proposal special.The red cables were scented making the areas be filled with the Sweet smell of Jasmine.She stepped forward subconsciously, looking around, admiring the glow and the romantic ambience radiating in the room.Timothy took her hand and led her to the heart created with candles at the center of the hall.Mira followed his lead and allowed him to lead her." What do you think?" Timothy asked once they were standing Inside the heart." It's lovely. It feels special like the person was trying to tell the other that in their darkened world, there was something that gave him look light." Mira observed.She wasn't good in literature, but she wasn't bad either and could atleast make out that much meaning.But wait... Why was Timothy even asking for her opinion? It's not like this was meant for her anyways!With that flashing thou
Looking straight to his face, Mira smiled. She had countless of words to tell the man before her but she lacked the words to express them.She knew that in this life, they were meant for each other. He was meant for her just as she was meant for him.Their desire to be together had gone against fate.It was strong than any fortress and that's why despite having come to the end of her life, she was still existing.Opening her mouth, her eyes released a fresh bout of tears. She wiped them with the back of her hand hand. She was too overwhelmed by the raging emotions drilling her insides.Taking a deep breath, she finally gathered the courage to say something to the special man still kneeling patiently on the floor.. Taking a step at a time, she kneeled before him, matching his height." In my life, I have made many mistakes. Mistakes that have costed me big time. But there's something I will never consider as a mistake. Loving you and giving my life to you is the my biggest achievement.
Timothy had prepared a little after the wedding party to celebrate with his family and friends.They booked the secret hotel owned by Mira for the function.Ofcourse, Mira said nothing about the hotel being under her name.The close family and friends from each side arrived to congratulate the new couple." I can't believe that you are now a married woman!" Vera sighed dramatically, making Mira roll her eyes." Ofcourse I will get married. men Like Timothy are hard to find so I had to take the opportunity to tie him to myself before someone else snatches him." Mira replied and they all burst out laughing at her cheeky comment.They agreed with her though, a man like Timothy was hard to find. Only one in a million, a perfect definition of scarcity." But honestly Mira, does this decision have something to do with the little man?" Yolanda inquired.She couldn't help but think that her friend really rushed things. It wasn't long since the two got engaged and now they were already married
" I know that." Mira replied, her attention glued to outside the window.Timothy pursed his lips with dissatisfaction. It was their wedding night, he even took the initiative to remind her, then why did she seem inattentive to whatever he was saying?Couldn't she tell his intentions all along or was she playing ignorant with him?Mira could tell that the man must be sulking about her show of disinterest.Ofcourse she was aware that it was their wedding night and it ought to be special for both of them.She didn't forget that today is the day she gets to become his wife.She was just as excited as he was and couldn't wait to have him dominate and possess every inch of her body.Just when they were about to take a turn out of the city and to the residential houses, Mira's phone rang.It was a call from Lucia.Mira couldn't help but wonder why that bitch would call her.She was in a good mood and the last thing she wanted was to have an argument with Lucia or better yet have that woman s
Timothy had been waiting in the car for Mira in the past one hour. He had been itching to go inside and see what's happening but would stop himself Every Time.It was a family matter and although he was married to his daughter, he never liked Mr Jones one bit.The two had bad blood and didn't dare exist in the same space.Ten minutes later and anxiousness started kicking in.For some reasons, his heartbeat rate Increased and he was having this crawling feeling deep inside his body.He picked up his phone and decided to make a call to check up on her.Hearing her voice would assure him that she was at least fine.Once. twice. thrice.Nobody picked the phone even after making three successful calls.The phone would ring without getting answered.Timothy's anxiousness kicked in and his stomach churned when the Idea of something bad happening to Mira crossed his path.Pushing the car door open, he rushed to the hospital.He headed straight to the ICU.Looking around, no ward was occupied.
With a silent goodbye in her heart, she watched as they all left, leaving her empty from inside.Timothy squeezed her shoulders, flashing her a smile when she turned to look at him.He knew how hard it was for her to watch her friends and family leave knowing that this might be the last time they saw each other.Everybody had already driven out of the property when Timothy urged her to head back to the house." It's getting cold here, let's go inside.Three days later, it was time for her to leave.For those three days, she locked herself in her room, not allowing anybody to see her, not even Timothy.Mira knew that anytime now, Hazia would be arriving to take her away.Taking out the camera she had secretly bought, she set it and sat on her bed. She had decided to leave Timothy something to remind him of herself and the good times they spend together.After pressing the recording button, she started." I know by the time you see this, I'll be long gone. I figured out that I didn't wa
Dinner time came and everyone settled to share the meal prepared to them by the couple." I have to admit that you both are great cooks. Even with my little one being all choosy, I am liking every dish prepared." Vera commented, scooping some more rice into her bowl." Are you saying that my cooking isn't good?" Her boyfriend, Joahkim, complained with a pout on his face." No offence darling but I don't really like your oh so " nutritious food" sometimes I don't even Know what I am eating. I feel like getting pregnant is a torture to my taste buds." Vera replied straightforwardly, not minding to mince her words.Everybody burst out laughing at Joahkim for being roasted openly by his woman." But I do everything to ensure that you give birth to a healthy baby!" Joahkim defended himself." It's good to be mindful of the health of the baby but that doesn't mean you will restrict the mother from meeting her cravings." This time, old lady Antonio chipped in, supporting Vera." I just get g
Timothy didn't expect that move from her. Over the past few days, the couple only stayed in the house either cuddling, watching movies or making Love. To him, this was the best last days he could give her." What's wrong?" Timothy said, inhaling her sweet Jasmine Scent which always calms him down.Knowing that she would be leaving in a week wasn't something so pleasant, but he knew that he would have to accept it. Accept that soon enough, she would leave him and Jonas all by themselves.He also knew that if she had a choice, she would never leave him, too bad that was something she couldn't control." I'm ugly." Mira replied, conscious of the fact that her body was turning all green.Timothy did not understand why she would say that , and he didn't have to understand either. To him, irrespective of anything, Mira will always be the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. Nothing could deter her beauty in his eyes." You are perfect hun, never doubt that about yourself." He replied, ki
" The fuck are you talking about?" Yolanda shrieked, disbelief evident in her voice and facial.At first, she thought that it was Vera who was being given the responsibility of the CEO. She thought then she would be the assistant CEO. Who would have thought that Mira was referring to her all along." What? You don't want to?" Mira asked, her voice low and dripping with sadness.She knew that it would be hard to convince Yolanda to take the position she was offering her but Mira was determined to make her agree. She could have chosen Vera as the CEO but she knew under that badass facade of Vera, There's a soft heart that would hinder her in business. Not like she didn't trust Vera but Yolanda was more suited, owing to the fact that she was calculative and heartless, ideal for the business world.Since the convincing was ought to be done somehow, she chose to use her ultimate tool, emotional blackmail.Her pitiful voice was enough to evoke others to do her bidding and that's how she'll
Timothy nodded, he could only agree with her suggestions because the lady was not someone he knew where she resided. Otherwise, he would set out on a journey to find her." So what are you planning?" That question did nothing to alleviate Mira's mood.She has revealed the secret to Timothy but she doesn't Know whether she's ready to reveal it to anyone else, much less think that they'll believe him. Some might think that she's losing her mind.Seeing her expression of reluctance, Timothy sighed." You do realise that at some point you will have to tell them. No matter how unwilling you are, they have the right to know what is happening to you. This is not something we can hide because it will eventually happen. Do you want others to be left grieving without knowing what actually happened to you?" Timothy was trying to see if she can get to open up to others. While it's not a must, he still felt that her loved one deserved to know what was happening with her. As her family and friends,
" This is not my first time Living." Mira Said, taking a deep to calm down her nerves.If she was to tell the story of her life, she might as well take reign over her emotions and not break down amidst.Timothy said nothing despite the confusion in his mind after hearing her confession.Pushing herself away from him, Mira sat a metre away from Timothy. She wanted to watch him, see every expression while sfe tells him about the story her life,a life he might not be able to relate or even believe.But either way, she knew she had to do it. After postponing things for so long, this happened to be the perfect time she had been waiting for." I came back to life. You can say that I was given a second chance to do things the right way. In my past life, I died after getting betrayed by my family and ofcourse by my then fiancee, Caleb." Mira explained,her words coated with venom as she talked about the cause of her death in her previous life.It was something she wanted to forget, wanted to
Timothy watched, horrified as Mira's hands transformed to the transparent body he had seen her in his dreams. Before she was totally swallowed by the darkness, her body started to turn transparent.Dread filled every nerve of his being as he strode to her." What's happening to your hands?" He asked with horror filled eyes.Mira who had panicked shook her head frantically, wanting to say nothing was happening to her hands but no sound came.One minute passes before Mira's hands finally turn normal, relief washing through her as she sighed heavily.She squatted, intending to pick the broken shards of the plates. It was then sfe realised that her leg was bleeding. Turns out one of the shards had pierced her leg, making it bleed.Seeing her hurt, Timothy lifted her in his arms, carrying her to the sofa.After he placed her on the coach, he went to get the first aid kit.Without saying anything, he poured a little spirit on a cotton swab before cleaning her wound.It wasn't a deep wound
The days passed by well. Hazia started visiting Mira frequently, urging her to tell Timothy about her situation. She was reluctant, unable to break such devastating news to him. She didn't want to watch him sad over her soon to be departure." I have talked to the man and he has promised to meet you. Whether you pass the test or not depends on you." Hazia Informed Mira as she busied herself cooking breakfast for the family It was the weekend and Jonas had Left to his grandfather's house.After Melissa gave birth, Jonas practically moved in with them. He was always asking to be around the little girl and after much nagging, Mira had allowed him to spend the weekend over his grandfather's house.She could rest assured that he would be taken care of. Afterall, the boy had successfully garnered the Love and attention of everyone in the house." What about the test?" Mira' asked, looking less interested in whatever Hazia was telling her.According to her, nothing could save her from the f
After cleaning her face with cold water and wiping it with a clean towel, Mira picked her bag and left. She couldn't afford to have Vera realise that she just cried. She wasn't in the mood to have questions flooding her. Anyway what would she even tell her? That she was crying because she was about to leave this world? That would be crazy and hard to believe. Besides, she didn't want to worry her friend.Peeping through the window, she bid Vera goodbye before walking downstairs and to the parking lot.She drove off to a familiar destination, a place she had avoided coming in the past few months.With a bouquet of red roses, she made her way to her mother's grave. It was clean and a the flowers laying on top of it told her that someone had visited her mother not long ago.Removing the already dry roses, she placed her fresh ones on her grave and sat at the edge.Tracing the name engraved on the tombstone longingly,her tears escaped again.It seemed like today her tears were not willing
