STUCK IN-BETWEEN Schemes.
In Ivanna's room, Jolly pace back and forth. Ivanna sat quietly on the bed lost in thought. The mother and daughter duo seems to be discussing something as Jolly turns to her abruptly and says"She is blackmailing you mom, can you see? She is lying, nothing is real" Jolly said anger evident in her voice.Ivanna stares at her for a long time, her forehead twisting in displeasure. " What do you want me to do? Kick her out of the house even though she might be lying?" She breathes out, "we both know what's at stake if we don't play by her rules, I'm sure you don't want to be on your brother black list after he finds out that his dear sister is the Mastermind behind his unfaithfulness and the product of his illegitimate child" she blurts out."Don't you dare speak as if you are any less of a schemer, meanwhile you are the brain behind all the sneaky ideas we execute that night" Jolly doesn't want to be exposed, even though she has a fuse with her brother she doesn't want things to go any
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Shopping with Morgan.
"Where would you like to shop? There are beautiful places around and I don't mind showing you around" Ashley said making her way to the car as Morgan follows her behind."Anywhere will be fine by me, doesn't matter where we go... All that matters is I get dresses for me and my son" Morgan closes the door with a smile and turn to Ashley."You are so nice, more than what I thought you were" She comments.To be honest, Morgan greatly admires Ashley and sometimes feels jealous. Even though her mother and sister-in-law don't accept her as a family, she always says good things about them and makes everyone thinks everything is fine.Ashley smiled at her word, "I take that as a compliment, thanks" She steams the engine, ready to kick off."It's nothing but the truth," Morgan said and turns and gaze at the side window.The car was already in motion and the sight of the city was amazing."Do you do this every day?" Morgan asked after a long silence."Do what?" Ashley glanced at her confused, d
STUCK IN-BETWEEN a book I came across!
Ashley energetically chops the spices on the chopping board, and she looks all focus on what she was doing.Today, Ann wasn't there to help. She was giving some off days for personal reasons and Ashley didn't mind taking her post.Ashley has always wanted to assist in one way or the other since she wasn't used to sitting and lazy around but Ann never let her.It's either she gives the work that best fits a fifteen years old or makes her sit and watch or chase her away. The highest she's ever done was allowing her to cook the shrimp scampi sauce."You seem to love working!" Morgan said entering the kitchen.She has been wondering where Ashley has gone, they were the only ones at home and being alone is something Morgan hates.Ashley nods, "that's how I keep myself busy and less thinking when I am bored and lonely" she carries the chopped spices and put them in a clean transparent dish."What's on the menu?" Morgan leans on the slab, watching her work her thing like a professional."Lem
STUCK IN-BETWEEN your biggest nightmare!
Ivanna stares at Morgan so intensely that Morgan could feel her bones grow limp, and she swallows.Her gaze met with Ashley, the look on her face says it all. Ashley didn't need her to commence any further."I'm sure she wanted to tell me something about Fabrice and his love for toys" Ashley explains, hoping it will be enough to brush off the awkward atmosphere in the room."Really?" Ivanna asked directing her question to Morgan.Morgan nods, "yes, Ashley wishes to know all that makes the little boy happy." She adds.Ivanna didn't respond, "brought some foodstuffs, go get them, Ashley" she orders.Ashley glanced at Morgan, then swiftly off the flame under the pot since it was long ready. Silently, she walks out of the kitchen.The kitchen was dead silent, with only piercing gazes being felt on each others bodies."What were you trying to do?" Ivanna broke the silence."What do you think?" Morgan returns the question, unwaveringly."Don't even try what you are thinking in that dirty mi
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Your happiness matters.
Ivanna fumes sitting on the sofa in her room, she was as red as the hot metal on the fire if a little drop of water is sprinkled on, she will fry it to vapour."Hadn't been you had stayed in your lane and try not to be so good" Jolly snorts by the side, irritated and angry that Ivanna could let Morgan talk to her in such a manner."She is an ungrateful bitch, ready to snap anything away with any giving chance" Jolly couldn't stop herself from ranting."I wonder what you saw in her" she snorts.Ivanna's gaze travels to her, the anger on her face couldn't be ignored."You always find pleasure in throwing all the blame at me as if I caused it all" Ivanna sounded angry.Jolly rolls her eyes, "it's not like you are any innocent, " she snorts, "we wouldn't have been facing this if you didn't include her in this" "I did what was best at that time!" Ivanna yells, unable to keep quiet.Jolly was in no way relenting as she responds with the same level of harshness. "And what you saw best wasn'
STUCK IN-BETWEEN let's start all over!
Life with Morgan and Fabrice around was worth calling it life to Ashley since she and Andriy were no longer that chatty and ok.Ashley walks out of the bathroom drying her patting her hair dry with the hand towel and walks to the closet.She was taken aback by a sudden hug from behind, it was Andriy.He has been watching her since she steps out of the bath hoping she sees her but she deliberately ignores him. He should spark things up than wait for the right time.He wasn't seeing anytime worth the waiting, lately, they have been drastically drifting apart and that is unlike the relationship he'd seen"You smell so good!" Andriy comments, burying his face in the crook of her neck.Ashley didn't respond, she stood quiet and let him feel comfortable."I've missed you" Andriy continues, "those times you throw your comb and pillows on me. Those times you always find my arms so comforting and the only place you will love to stay forever, I miss how you stare at me with those dazzling eyes
STUCK IN-BETWEEN I deserve to be happy too.
"thought you will never visit again" Alina complains facing Ashley with her back as she pretends to be angry.Ever since the last time they separated, she hasn't been able to reach her and she wasn't ok with it."I'm sorry, just a lot had been going on and whenever I remember to call, I always end up forgetting" Ashley explains as she reaches out to Alina but she shrugs her hands off."Don't try to sway me with that, I won't fall for it?" Alina said as a matter of fact.Ashley breathes out and walks to the sofa, "I need to rest my head off Ali, a lot is going on in that mansion most especially as Morgan and Fabrice have joined us" she said tirelessly, it's like she will spend her entire day here to accumulate enough energy that will keep her going when she gets back.Alina turns to her with a frown, "Morgan and Fabrice? Who are they?" She asked curious to know.Only then Ashley remembers she hasn't been giving her updates lately."You see what I am saying? Things might be going waywar

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

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

"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

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?"

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!"

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.

"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
