STUCK IN-BETWEEN I dare you!
Ashley stood before the large mirror staring at her reflection, Alina had been telling her how pale she look and only now she sees for herself.She had never been attentive to her looks and so on, but it's better she starts giving herself more love than she's always has.She puts down the hair brush and leave the room. It was a new day, and a new beginning for her and she was willing to start a fresh.As she walks through the corridor, she two step away from Morgan's room when she over head overhead voices. Her brows twist, she could have ignore it but the fact that she could identify Morgan's voice that was quite loud was enough to halt her to her steps.Without thinking, she finds herself moving closer and leans on the door. "I dare you Morgan, don't think you can use those cheap threats on me" Jolly roars with so much anger staring at Morgan who leisurely sat back on the bed with a smile on her lips."You don't need to dare me, I've made up my mind to tell Ashley anyways and trust
STUCK IN-BETWEEN The heartbroken truth.
"you are a good person, Ashley and I knew there'd come a day like this." Morgan breathes out, walks and takes sits by Ashley." This will be hard for you to digest, I wish it didn't end like this. " Morgan kept on going around beating around the bush yet, she wasn't heading anywhere."Whatever you have to say, go on and tell me. The more you talk without heading anywhere, the more you keep me in suspense with a thundering heart" Ashley couldn't take any more of her blabbering."Remember your wedding night?" Morgan asked.Ashley frowns, she doesn't know why Morgan brought up the topic but she nods anyway."What do you think happened after the wedding reception?" Morgan pressed on."We left for the hotel we booked and" Ashley didn't know what happened next, no matter how much she force herself to think, she couldn't bring out the full image of what happened."Wait! Why are you asking me all this?" Ashley returns the question with a frown."You surely can't remember, it all works perfect
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Apologies.
Ashley walked down the stairs lost in thought, she wasn't focused and was brought back to the present by the feel of a certain someone clinging to her leg."Good morning, aunt Ashley" Fabrice greets with a sparkling face.Ashley smiles at him, it took her a whole lot. Even though she wants to hate him, she can't.It was neither the little boy's fault nor hers, he came into her life as a result of Ivanna, Jolly and Morgan's selfishness.She crunch down to his level and cupped his face in her palms, "good morning, sunshine. Where are you coming from? I've been searching for you all over the place" she jokes and pinch his cheeks.Fabrice giggles happily, "I went out with Uncle Andriy, he took me to the park and I saw this big teddy bear and Trailer, it was awesome. We even had a ride on a train" he chimps excitedly.Ashley couldn't help but smile, but the sadness in her heart couldn't be ignored or brushed away.She caught sight of Andriy standing by the side waiting for her to get done
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Better off alone.
"do you want to know what you did wrong? Well, I will tell you. You made my son go against me and my wishes, you made him threaten to turn his back on his family if I didn't accept you" Ivanna yells, "did you expect me to welcome you with open arms just because he loves you? That's ridiculous, he loves you not me and I am not willing to bend my rules for anyone, not even you Ashley... Never" "At long last, the truth is out" Ashley nods, "I thought I was just hallucinating things but now I know it's truly happening, the handwriting was clearly written on the wall but I gave a blind eye to it... Now, I am facing it" she cries in regret and turns to Andriy."I guess love alone can't sustain a relationship, 'cause even love itself fades and grow weak when the load is more than what it can carry" Her voice was soft and regretful.Andriy was still trying to process everything, but no matter how much he tries, he couldn't assimilate everything at once.Ashley let out a painful chuckle, "I'm
STUCK IN-BETWEEN The call!
It was all over, or Ashley thought. She was willing to start her life over, even though it hurts to know she has been living a fake life thinking it was all real, she was willing to let it go.She sat in the dining, tears rolls down her cheeks as she stares at nothing."Guess there is not always a saving" she murmurs to herself.Alina hugs her from behind, "there is no need to cry over a broken egg when you've got twenty-nine to cherish" she didn't like her sulking all by herself.Ashley smiles, "Ed Sheeran said in his song that a heart that is broken is a heart that's loved, " she said, "why does it always end like this? Why does love have to be so painful and cruel hurting you when you've got no bad intentions, giving you hope and life only to take it back when you least expect it? Why does life even exist if it does no good?She asked in between her sobbing, she could feel it, her heart is shattered into tiny pieces and she can't do everything."Let it go, my love, Cherish what you
STUCK IN-BETWEEN His Biological mother.
"We are losing him!" Aston said, "he is losing lots of blood" Ashley heard him clearly, she knew that wasn't a good sign. A patient doesn't have to lose blood, especially during surgery. He/she can die."We need blood, get Melina to get ready" His voice an urging and commanding.He can't proceed with the surgery without him losing blood this much.Selene rush out as quickly as those words left Aston's mouth, she walks back in a few minutes and whispers something into Aston's ears.The shock on his face made Ashley's instinct kicks in, she has been staring at them waiting for them to bring forth the blood and connect it but nothing was showing.Unable to take it, Ashley asked. "Is everything ok? What ain't they coming with the bag of blood? Melina is right outside, waiting" she could hardly hold herself from talking.Aston turns to him, face all pale. "Get Anton as soon as possible," he tells Selene who nods and left."Now is not the right place to talk, let's get him ok and fine," A
STUCK IN-BETWEEN I will do it over again if it means I save my son.
"What is happening? Why did she just suddenly blackout?" Anton asked, concern written all over his face."She is very weak, that's why" Aston explains, checking out Ashley's pulse rate.Anton frowns, "why? Is something wrong with her?" Aston stayed silent for a while then turn to Selene, "tell Janel to run more tests on Ashley's blood sample, and check if something can be dictated" he informs.Selene nods and leaves the room. Anton's gaze never left Aston."She donated blood to Kayden, I'm sure I already told you this but... She shouldn't have been this weak and pale unless" he pauses and turns to Anton, "she is pregnant" he breaths in, " and that's not good for her, she needs blood to survive herself and the foetus inside of, any shortage may lead to anaemia and compromises the health of the foetus" Anton looks pale as he listens to him explain."She needs to fight it, though I am not sure if she is, I doubt she isn't," he said and turns and leave.Before he could reach the door, A
STUCK IN-BETWEEN under control.
It was dusk outside, Ashley felt so pressed and couldn't hold anymore from flushing out the waste in her bladder.She climbs off the bed and walk to the bath, she was still feeling dizzy and her vision was slightly unstable.She thought she could do it, but not until she saw everything spinning and her sight was slowly failing her.She grabs the wall and closes her eyes as she tries to calm down. Maybe she is experiencing this because she has been sleeping all day.With so much push, she could feel herself slowly recovering from whatever was happening.The door pushed open which caught her attention as she turns to see who it was only to find herself falling... It happens too fast that she didn't get the time to process and act.Luckily the door wasn't that far from where she was standing, and Anton was quick to grab her still."Where are you going?" He asked with so much concern in his voice." Toilet... I want to ease myself " Ashley explains, she struggles to push herself off his t

"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
STUCK IN-BETWEEN you taste so good!
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. Her gaze travels to the busy man who seems to be enjoying what he is doi
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Something on your face.
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
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Divorce 2
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
STUCK IN-BETWEEN The awful lady.
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
