STUCK IN-BETWEEN Don't let your past determine your future.
It was non of his business. Just, he couldn't brush off the face of angry Ashley as his gaze lingers on her face for a long time.As always, he felt the pull towards her but stopped himself from going there.With a heavy sigh, he walks out of the mall. No one could identify him because of the nose mask he had on. "Watch out, my eyes are on you" Alina scoffs pointing her two fingers at Jolly. She helps Ashley up, leading her out of the mall. There was no need to stay there when that pest was inside, it will not end well.Everyone was watching Jolly, who stood there confused as to what they were staring at."What are you looking at?" She asked in irritation. She has no respect for elders, even when all those people standing before her were old people, she still couldn't give them respect."She is a lost course!" A lady said shaking her head pitifully. The show was over, there was nothing to see. They turn and leave."That girl got some nerves!" Alina fumed in anger. Ashley smiles, it
STUCK IN-BETWEEN A wonder cooker!
Alina is a shy type when it comes to relationships. She always feels insecure about herself, and it only gets worse when her ex called her fat.She never believed that's how he saw her, like, for all the years they have been together, that was the only thing he kept on blabbering about. It didn't end there, he tried making her stop eating, just to make her reduce in size. It's not like she was eating too much, it's just her nature, her born size but he never saw that.At the end of the long compromise, he finally breaks up with her.That alone left her devastated, with the mindset that no one will ever admire her and talk less of loving her because of her size.She stares at Ashley, with teary eyes. Her past was something she just couldn't get rid of but at least, it's better to try than refuse and later on regret it.Ashley moves to her side and hugs her, She is the only one she's got. And she can't just watch her, run away from the relationship just because of the bullshit the ass
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Hope you stop blaming yourself!
Alina opens her eyes to the bright sunlight shining piercingly through the glass windows as she crosses her hands over her face, protecting her eyes from the light.By the side was Ashley standing before the mirror brushing on her hair, seemingly lost in thought."Where too?" came Alina's sleepy voice as she rubs on her eyes, yarning."Going to check on a hospital…it's better I get something doing that sitting idle, at least" Ashley explains taking a seat by the bedside.Alina stares at her for what seems like a long time as if trying to figure her out.Ashley spent her entire night reflecting on her life, and her future. To her, there is no future without her family which she's lost but with self-blame, she concluded getting work as a nurse, at least, to be able to do what she couldn't do years ago and to amend her mistakes. "You don't have to push yourself, remember…moreover, you need more time to rest," Alina said in concern, knowing the reason she was bent on doing something. We

"How is she, doctor? Is she going to be fine? Tell me she's going to be fine!" Her endless questions left the doctor confused about which to answer first.He pulls off his nose marks. He seems to be contemplating for a long time before saying"Your daughter is fine, stable for now, she's under monitor... We can't guarantee the best but we will do our best to keep her alive" he said. His gaze travels to Ashley by the side.He frowns, "Ashley!!" He calls out stunning the girl whose attention was on the crying lady. Upon raising her head, she was met with his white eyes staring back at her. Her brows twist in confusion, he looks so familiar but she can't ever remember meeting him.As if figuring out her doubt, he said "Aston, from college " just then, the lines on her face brightens up as a smile formed on her beautiful lips."Long time, how have you been" she tries to make her voice normal, she was indeed happy to see him. She can't remember the last time she saw any of her friends fro

"I can take her place if it's ok" Ashley found herself offering to help. The thought of the little girl having no one to watch over her made her motherly instinct kick in."That will be great! " Selene beams. She doesn't want to take care of the little girl because she sometimes wakes up in the middle of the night, crying. It's worst when her mom is not present at the moment and she hates dealing with such stubborn and disturbing kids. They stress her a lot. Ashley seems a little bit contemplative. "B-But!!" She stutters." I don't know how to go about it" she let out her worries.She isn't the type to keep quiet when she has no clue about something and she feels less embarrassed expressing herself than hiding her true identity."Let me see" Selene took the files from her and starts flipping through its pages. Her eyes caught sight of her resume and other information.With wide eyes, she stares at her in, disbelief." You've never worked before?" She asked surprised. Ashley nods, fee
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Little Pumpkins!
Jolly's face was red like an apple, with lines of fingers visible on her cheeks.Aston could only watch the scene playing before him in awe. He never knew Ashley could be this bold and daring. He's always seen her as a weak and innocent type but now he knows better than to try her."What do you seek from me, Jolly?" Ashley asked "what right do you have to condemn me? Are you not satisfied with making my life hell? What more do I have to offer to get you pest out of my way?" .She burst into laughter, a mockery one. " Oh! I see... You just can't stand seeing me happy, didn't know the almighty princess Jolly could be jealous of a mere commoner like me, a maid like myself" Her once laughing face returned to its cold and stern one, sending chills of death all over the place. "Listen and listen good, I won't tolerate any outrageous behaviour from you, ever again ... Learn your place and stay in your lane as I happily do the same with mine. " She takes three strides to her, " but if y

As if time flew, the morning came even before Ashley could reason things. She didn't leave her side, not even for a minute.She stayed all night, humming soothing sounds to her. Her heart couldn't bare to leave her side.The door pushes open and Selene's figure walks in."Good morning, Ashley" Selene greets with a smile.Ashley's face brightens even more, "good morning" she returns greetings.Selene's eyes darts back and forth through Smiles and the little sleeping figure.She lowers her gaze, as her eyes settle on Smiles's face as if trying to see through her."Seems like you've got a calm and noiseless night here" Selene walks to the bedside, checking on the child's pulse and the monitor machine by the side.Everything was normal and fine.Ashley chuckles, knowing what she meant by saying that."Yes, I did... She's such an adorable little pumpkin, even though she's asleep, her charms were more than enough to keep me watching her" Ashley said, and winks at her.Selene rolls her
STUCK IN-BETWEEN A friend indeed.
"Do you like it?" Ashley asked, "or should I give you the tangerines?".The little girl didn't respond and quietly soak away the juice as she struggles to squeeze it with her tiny hands.She blinks at Ashley when she was unable to make it soft.Ashley understood as she help her out."Thank you" the little girl's voice was soft and soothing to the ears. It came out as a whisper but Ashley heard it due to how close they were.She flashes a sweet smile as she peels on the third.All through, they never spoke again. One after the other, her little Pumpkin ate all the oranges leaving the tangerines and grapefruit fruits which she happily ate.By the time she was done attending to her little Pumpkin, it was already ten thirty in the morning and she had to get going so she will be able to come back later in the evening.With that, she bade her goodbye to Selene and went on.Alina was not at home when she arrived.Without delay, She took her bath and quickly prepared something which she ate

"what's inside?" Ashley asked curious to know."Why not check it out?" He hands her the box, silently urging her to open it.Ashley didn't know why he wants her to open the box but she did it anyways, her curiosity couldn't let her.Gasp escape her lips at the sight of the bracket sleeping in the box. There is no way she will ever forget this."Where did you get this?" She asked, staring at Anton with a demanding gaze.Anton didn't respond, he hugs her from behind, and bury his head in the crook of her neck."The night I spent with an angel" he whispers into her ears."You know that's five years ago, right?" Ashley turns to him, with a raised brow."Yeah, I know that..." He responds.Ashley stares at the blue bracelet for a long time, still in disbelief that he kept it all this while.She turns and hugs him, "thank you" her voice was teary.She wasn't thanking him for the bracelet, but she was thinking of him for holding on to their one-night stand till now.Her lips find him, she kis

Ashley walks out of the bath drying her hair with the hand towel. She refused to sleep with Anton knowing what entails and luckily, Kayden wasn't too demanding today ad he fell asleep immediately after dinner.She had absolutely nothing on, her nice curvy body was as smooth as silk. She walks to the bedside, ready to go to bed butt naked but before she could finish drying off her hair, the door pushes open all of sudden.Out of reflex, she immediately uses a small towel to cover her body. Her heart was as though it would explode in her chest, as she stares at the door with wide eyes.It was Anton, he looks so carefree with a smile on his lips."Oops, you are dressing... Nice" he closes the door behind him and start walking toward her.Ashley didn't know if she should be hallucination or sad, he was just not making things better."You should have knocked" Ashley complains, and look away.His hot gaze on her body was enough to leave her shivering."Thought of surprising you and I guess
STUCK IN-BETWEEN the bet.
The car stops before the large mansion, Kayden and Ashley stepped out and made their way into the building with Kayden holding onto Ashley's hands.The sweet and mouth watery aroma coming from the kitchen was enough to leave the two begging for more as they lead themselves directly to the kitchen curious to know how is seriously cooking their nostrils.Ashley's steps froze upon seeing Anton busily cooking with an apron tied around his waist. "No way " she mutters under her breath in disbelief."You are back!" Anton spoke out breaking the silence."Come in, u don't mind you two watching me all day" he jokes.Kayden runs to him, demanding a piece of fried shrimp which Anton gladly gave him.Ashley didn't move, she stood there staring in shock."You should taste it, mama, it's delicious" Kayden rush to her and offer her a bite.Ashley's eyes widen even more when she realized the food is, even tastier than it smells.

Alina's hot gaze on Ashley was enough to make get her sweat dripping down her face, she doesn't understand what she did to receive such a glare from her best friend."Anything on my face?" Ashley asked, pretending to be oblivious to her constant stares. "Yes, " Alina responded. "A very big something that can cause a problem... Huge one can even make your face less attractive" she adds.This left a frown on Ashley's face as she tries to feel what exactly Alina said was on it. "Is it that bad? What is it? Can it be cleared in two days?" Ashley throws tons of questions at Alina, she wasn't scared of anything but acne... It always comes and never wishes to want to go and she hates it."Be serious, what's on my face?" Ashley asked again after seeing the exchange of looks between Kayden and Alina."Um, naiveness I think" Alina laughs, heartily at her words."You should stop playing jokes like that, it's no fun." Ashley complains, "you know just how much I dislike acne" "I never said you h

Andriy let out a chuckle of disbelief, "you are not serious, there is absolutely no way you can be serious" he doesn't believe her, nothing she will ever say will make him believe.He's been with Ashley for years now and he knows well what she is capable of and this isn't one of those things she can do and boastfully talk about it."I don't need you to believe me if this doesn't make you believe then stay but just know that won't stop me from leaving you" Brian pulls out another paper from the case and hands it to Ashley who then pushes it to Andriy."This can be issued, it's fake," Andriy said.Ashley smiled, " you don't have to accept it, just sign the fucking paper let me get out of here" "I guess I have stayed silent for a long time and I need to play my role" Brian spoke up breaking the awkward silence in the room."The divorce she is offering you is a peaceful one Mr Norman, I am sure you know too well your mom and sister could be sent to jail after the scandalous things they d

Brian watches her with a slight smile on his lips, even though he doesn't know more about Ashley, he does know she is a smart and emotional type.Not long, the car pulls off before the starlight cafe. Ashley walks into the building without delay, it's as if she knew where exactly to find Andriy.As expected, Andriy was sited patiently waiting for her. He stood up immediately upon seeing Ashley's approaching figure, he looks as though he was about crying or rather he's been crying."Ashley, thank goodness!" He breathes out and reaches out for her, "it's not true, right? You can't possibly want to divorce me right?" He begs with pleading gazes.Ashley bites her lips so hard that lines were seen after she released them, "Andriy?" She calls out in a whisper, "Behave please, we ain't the only one here" she informs with pleading gazes.Andriy turns around, only then did he realized they were the point of focus as everyone's gaze was on them."You won't leave me, right?" He asked although pe

It's been more than five days since Ashley left Andriy, he has been trying to reach her but she always declines his calls and silences her phone.She didn't want to talk to him or have anything related to him, but there is no way she could just run and hide pretending as though nothing happened between them and ignore her pain from the injuries caused by them."You shouldn't bother about it, my lawyer is downstairs ready to assist you in whatever way he can" Anton hugs her from behind, staring at the bright city through the window."Don't you think it's too soon?" Ashley turns to him, a look of confusion plastered on her face.Anton stayed for a long time, staring at her as if trying to read through those beautiful eyes of hers, he takes her hands and place them on his shoulders."You don't have to do it if you don't want to, there is more time to decide and get to choose the right thing" He whispers, pulling her in for a hug."No!" Ashley shakes her head, "I want to do it, just fee

Later that day, Ashley spent her time beside Kayden, she watch him sleep so peacefully taking in a calm and gentle breath.She was so focused on him that she didn't see his fingers moving. Only when he blinks his eyes open did she see."Kayden?" She calls out, surprised in her voice."Mama?" Kayden's voice was so soft that Ashley didn't hear him clearly but she answered anyway."Yes baby, I am here" Ashley stood up and side by side of the bed."I-i want to" Kayden struggled but the oxygen mask didn't let him.Ashley didn't know if she should help him or not but after a long thought, she did it anyways."I want to tell you that I love you and" Kayden takes in a deep breath with a smile, "I am happy you are here with me" he confesses.Ashley caresses his cheeks, "I love you too my love, and mama will always be here for you, ok" she comforts.Kayden nods in satisfaction. He look way better than when she saw him in the theatre and she couldn't help but be happy."Do you want something? An

"you are back!" Ashley said walking out of the bath and drying her hair with the hand towel.Anton didn't respond, he pulls her in for a tight hug stunning Ashley."Are you ok?" She asked concerned evidence in her voice."I have missed you" Anton breathed out on the crock of her neck, sending a tingling sensation down her spine.Ashley smiles meekly unable to contain the happiness, she grabs his face in her palms and pulls him at arm's length."I've missed you too" she confesses, tiptoeing and kissing his chin.Anton's eyes sparkle, and he pulls her even closer making her soft chest brush against his hard one.Ashley's gaze lingers on his for a long time, both lost in each other hot gazes."Is everything ok?" Ashley asked again, somehow there is this feeling she can't brush away.Anton nods, "yeah, very ok and kicking" he assured but Ashley wasn't convinced."What? You want me to prove myself?" He raises a brow. "Sure then, I will gladly do " he picks her up in one swift movement and
