"I will take you to visit your daughter", said a nurse roughly. I was very still. This is the moment I finally get to see the flesh of my flesh, the blood of my blood. I can't say anything. I'm afraid that I will cry if I say something out loud. She would be thinking what kind of a mother I was?"Thanks", I said. I was alone my best friend and her wife left for home. I insisted that they should go. They don't have to stay back. I was alright. I was capable of looking after myself. I could ask for assistance if I needed anything.I slowly moved. She was efficient. I had doubted that her skills must match her personality but that wasn't the case. She had no time for nonsense. I slowly placed myself in the wheelchair with her help. I could feel the tear on my stomach. It was making a loud announcement each time we took a turn. But I didn't make a sound or made a complaint. I was afraid that she might take me back. When I was finally there I could hear the cries from everywhere."Sister
"Can I take her back with me?", I pleaded with her. She was a kind nurse too. It was a rare occurrence though."I'm sorry. You can't take her back not yet. She is still very weak. She has to gain some more strength before she could join you back", said the nurse."I can't wait that long", I said to her. My voice was broken with emotions."I understand but I can't do anything. Doctor's orders", she said guilty."OK. Can I stay a little more?", I couldn't help myself but I asked it.She looked at me with pain. I knew she didn't want to hurt me again. But I was already very much hurt. There is nothing more that she could do to me. She could give me a little bit of fresh breath by allowing me the stay more like giving oxygen to a drowning person."I'm sorry for putting you in a tough spot. Please take care of my girl", I managed to say."I will try my best. Your daughter is very lucky to have you. The visiting time is over now", she said."OK", I said giving back my baby to the waiting ha
This is the day finally I get to get home. I can take my little angel with me. There is nothing that will stop me. I was over the moon. My joy was uncontainable. I knew everyone is going to be jealous of me for being extremely happy. For the first time, my happiness has nothing to do with a name called Dane Wellington. Though he has a small part in my happiness. He had given me though unknowingly something that I will cherish for the rest of my life.I held the baby once again she was sleeping eyes closed. How could someone fill your life with so much love yet be blissfully unaware of it? I knew my daughter has no idea how much light she had given me in my darkest of times. Dane once called me his light I call her my light. She helped me from becoming insane from grief and hopelessness."You have to put her down at some point", said Charlie with a smirk."I will when I get home", I shot back at her."Careful she is like mama bear", said Jasmine."You don't have to be like that with us
Three years have passed and I think there wasn't any excuse for me to continue sitting at home. I knew Jeff was keeping the position open for me for a long time. He is tired of hiring contractors while securing my place. I also have kind of drained up my savings on looking after Namaste, my baby. My friends being so kind would rarely let me pay for something but still, I shouldn't continue to take advantage of their kindness for too long. I should get a job and pay my rent. That is the least I could do.Being away from my daughter was the most painful part of joining the work. I realised that I had missed several new updates and Accounting software that only vigorous training could cover up. Thanks to Jeff and his unending kindness he had helped me to regain my footing in the corporate world.I gave a gentle kiss to the sleeping baby and the list of instructions to my babysitter. We rarely need a babysitter because there would always be someone readily available for looking after our
The scoopWill they or won't they? Former influencer and model has set her cap on her ex-fiance again. They are spotted everywhere these days. Some of our sources found them together at Tiffany's. The heartthrob billionaire who had survived a drastic situation is now on a roll. He is rumoured to be in an open relationship with the said celebrity who is currently doing business. Last time their wedding didn't happen and her sister had stepped in. First, we all thought that their marriage had found love. But she left her husband soon. It was rumoured to be a contract marriage and she got paid twenty-five million. People close to the couple confirm that they are engaged. Let us see whether they make it to the aisle this time.I wished they didn't degrade me as a gold digger. I haven't made a twenty-five million dollars settlement with my husband. But it should hardly make a difference to me. I wasn't there. I was miles and miles away from them. They can't scratch on my wo
"Why are you wearing something good after a very long time?", commented Charlie who was back from work. She is now working harder than ever. Her girlfriend is on the verge of quitting the job. I think she is ready for a family. Her days of rebellion are over. She wants to settle down. I think Charlie is up to it. She already looks after Angel a lot."Angel finish the food", I ordered. She had a habit of leaving the food in the middle of eating.She looked at me with Defiance. It reminded me of Dane's stormy eyes while I did anything to displease him. She had a temper just like her father. But she is very silent and rarely talks. She calls me Mama that is it. I'm thirsty to hear her voice as it is. But she is adamant and very willful."Stop giving your mom that looks. You are reminding me of somebody", said Charlie with a grin.So she thought of it as well. We rarely mention Dane's name now. He is a forbidden topic in this household. I think everyone is trying to accommodate me by not
"I thought you said this was a small media company?", I asked him."It is small compared to BBC I guess", he said flippantly."You lied to me", I said to him."I didn't", he said trying to look innocent."Admit it. You said this was a local channel", I said not letting it go. Maybe I was at that time of the month."I consider it as an insult", said an executive who was an Arab woman but her language was very posh."I'm sorry I was brought here under pretences", I told her honestly."Why so?", she asked me."Because she hates any media and I want her to be here", said Jeff.He used to be very shy but now he was changed. He was doing business and talking to strangers is what he does for his job. His real estate business is expanding and Charlie used to work for him. But now she changed the job because she didn't want to work under a bossy man. She is now aiming to start her own business. I was amazed at her confidence and his. I still haven't found my route in this complex world."I'm s
The editing ran for a long time. I had to sit past Angel's bedtime and also mine. She was already asleep on my shoulder. I didn't know where Jeff was. I don't care. He might be outside or he might have gone back. I had watched the complete episode to be aired. Every shot that showed my daughter's face was deleted. I even asked them to cut my face. I hated to see my face on television at this point. I want no one to connect me and Jeff. I and Angel were invisible during our stay in Saudi Arabia. I want to continue that for the rest of my life."Are you satisfied?", asked the editor with a smile he was an Indian. I smiled at him. Normally no one sits for the editing after the interview. But now they had to cater to my whims ruining the perfect shots. But they helped me a lot. I would be forever grateful to them.They had arranged the transport for me to my hotel. I sighed when I felt my daughter move. My shoulder and arms were killing me. I cursed at the idea of ever coming with Jeff. I
Charlie hadn't said anything to Dane. If only she waited for him to talk. Charlie pretended to say the truth so that Heidi comes clean before Dane. She had done it but I knew she will pay the cost for it. Dane now knows everything. The Wedding won't happen now. I felt a little sorry for my sister after all she had lost Dane again."You didn't say the truth to me. I'm angry at you too", said Dane."I won't blame you. I should have told you about Enzo but I was afraid you won't take it seriously", I confessed."His people had shot me and you think I won't take it seriously? Ziva please be mature", said Dane."I'm sorry Dane", I said."You made us lose our precious three years of life. I missed my daughter's birth and her significant mile stones. It is not something that I can forgive", said Dane."You are right. I was a coward and everyone used that knowledge to influence me", I admitted."You are not a coward Ziva. I wish you were a little more selfish. You sacrificed us for my life. I
When I reached the venue I was immediately ushered into the groom's room. I went to see Dane working on the laptop. My daughter screamed and went to hug him. He took her and lifted above his shoulders. Who knew my serious daughter was a fun loving girl ?"I miss you daddy", she said."I miss you too bug", he said."Don't get married", she said bossily."Why?", he asked curiously."Because mommy cries", she said shocking me.He looked at me with a hint of smile. I was dumb struck."I wasn't", I said to him.She climbed down from her father and took her place next to me. I gave her a warning look."Don't lie", she said to me."I'm not lying", I said to her."You said that daddy", she was about to say everything but I put my hand on her mouth."That is enough", I warned her."There is still time confess your love or it will be too late", he said with a smirk."No. Our life is not a rom Com Dane. Everything is not black and white", I said to him."Fine your wish", he said.I took my daugh
I'm a stubborn creature where the need arises. I'm not going to backdown even if he says that he can't live without me. But I knew he won't say it. I had hurt him enough but still he says he can't marry Heidi. I can't go home till we reaches some sort of agreement."Dane. I'm not going back where it all started. I want an out", I said painfully. I had a fair idea on how much I was hurting him."Fine. I will get married but you have to be at the wedding. If you decide not to come at the last moment the wedding is off", said Dane."You can't say that. Please I won't go back not with Enzo there", I said to him."The wedding is going to happen here and tomorrow. Remember to be there else there is no wedding. I had booked a cab for you. It is not a good idea for me to join you", he said. I nodded my head. I was ready already.I have to be there at Dane's wedding to my sister. The fate couldn't be any more cruel. It hurt me like hell to adjust to the prospect that my husband is going to get
The thing about mistake is that we don't have a desire to undo it constantly but I didn't feel that way. Sleeping with Dane might be a bad choice on my part but I never regret a second that I spent with him. I would do it all over again if given another chance. But I shall remain silent. My thoughts never should come out of my head. It must stay there safe and silent. Even after I insulted Dane he being a gentleman had gone to fetch me fresh clothes. I stay there waiting for him to get the clothes. He must have ordered it through the hotel. But it still hadn't come. So he had gone there to check what happened to my dress. He might have fired somebody too if the hotel was his.I heard a knock and Dane came through. I stayed there very still. All my instincts said to go towards him. My emotions were over the top plus the amazing sex we had destroyed any small amount of self-control I used to have."Here is your dress", he said putting it on the bed."Can you give me some privacy?", I as
"I'm sorry for hurting you. I want us both to move on for the sake of Angel. You are also getting married to my sister. Let us end this please. What do you want in return for it?", I asked him."I want you to give me back every kiss I gave you. Then I will forget you and move on", he said."Fine. I have a condition too. I want you to give me back every kiss I gave you as well. So that we can settle the score", he said."Done", he said. I was the one who charged at him he bent down the kiss me. We kissed each other like there was no tomorrow. His tongue duelling with mine. I gasped when he bit my lips hard enough that it hurt. I bit him too drawing blood. He chuckled when he heard me growl. You better stop provoking me. I said in my mind.His hands cupping my boobs. I moaned when his hands tore my expensive dress. I didn't bother to put aside the tattered dress. It lied crumpled on the ground. I stood there in my undergarments. He removed a single boob from the constraints of my bra. H
"You can't let go of me right? You wanted to play me even after leaving me. I just played you back", he said with tight eyes."It wasn't any game Heidi loves you. She asked my help I gave it to her. I have no other interest in you", I said to him."Is that so? Then why are you on a date with me? How does it help your sister?", he asked me crossing his arms."I'm doing what I'm told. You said you will leave me alone after this date", I reminded him."I said and you listened. Things are that easy for you? Our life together didn't matter to you isn't that right? You couldn't endure a life with a handicap so you left me. But still you are here they are right what goes around comes around", he said."Why do you ask me to this date? Is it to torture me?", I asked him."No. I'm on this date to say you goodbye. You might have meddled with my life a lot. But after today you won't do anything like that ever again. I wanted to destroy you initially but then I realised that you are also mother of
"And what do you think?", I asked him."I know my feelings never died for you", he said thoughtfully."You are only saying this to punish me", I said."Why would I want to punish you?", he asked me."Because I left you three years ago", I said."It is correct that you left me. I don't think I can ever forgive you for that. But that doesn't mean that I had lost my feelings for you", he said."I think you want to bed me that is why you are talking about the feelings all of a sudden", I said."I would always want to bed you. I'm attracted to you physically and mentally. I will always want sex from you. Even when we are both a hundred years old", he said."I don't want you", I shot back at him."I realised that three long years ago. But that hadn't deterred me from wanting you like a Madan", said he."You shouldn't say such stupid things. I have used you in the past and disregarded you as it suited me", I lied to him."I got that. It still hurts. I thought you were in love with me", he sa
"You look beautiful", said Charlie carrying my daughter on her hip."Thanks", I murmured putting on the necklace.My open-sleeve dress had so many boob's that I was sure Dane would drool. I knew the game that I was playing is a dangerous one for both parties. It was like fighting with a sword that has no pommel. It can cut both."Is this some kind of a reminder for him? To have an idea of what he missed?", she asked me."I'm only getting ready for the date as he asked me to. That is all there it is. A single date where we will behave like it was the first time I'm seeing him walking", I said."You mean like while you were married to him", she said."Yes for a single date. But there won't be anything beyond that. He is going to get married soon to my sister. She had already told me that it is OK. Dane said that this date night is all he is asking in return for leaving me alone. I have nothing more to ask for from Dane and he will only get what he asked", I said."That is going to be to
I have decided to give him what he want. I know it will be a lie to confess that it is something that he only he wants. I want that too. A date that we missed three years ago. I couldn't help but imagine what would have happened if I hadn't met Enzo that day. I want to see him walk towards me for the first time again. He would have been romantic and flirty with me all night. We would have ended that night early each of us eager to go home. So that we could celebrate together at night.I was very nervous. Something inside my mind warned me from going through with Dane's idea. It is not only a worst idea but the after math of the said date would be incomprehensible. I won't be able to forget and move on while he ends this fantasy of date. I would be left with broken pieces of my heart.I called Charlie for clarity. I doubt she has anything new to supply. I already know consequences of my decision even though it doesn't make a difference to me.She picked on the first ring. She had alrea
