Being back at work was by far the best thing that had ever happened to him, he was tired of being stuck at home and treated like he was dying.
In fact, he hated the fact that everyday was a reminder that he almost died.He never told anyone about the nightmares, but he was struggling to sleep since he got back from the hospital. He was thrown into a dark hole he hoped to never encounter again, the most dreaded time of his life – his past.There was no one he could talk to, he was getting a divorce, so Sne was not an option; Logan had his own share of baggage, Kyle did not want to trigger him; and MJ was still in the dark about their past, and after the attack she had the other day, Kyle did not want to see her in that state ever again. He felt that it was not his place to reveal their pasts to her, Logan would have to share his experience with her, and Kyle would also share his story with her when he was ready.For now, he needed a distraShe knew the journalist was provocative, vindictive, and spiteful throughout her career, but mostly, she was ambitious. She was driven by her need to break the story first, and she knew which stories would sell, that was what made her the most sought-after journalist. But it was the very same trait that made media companies not want to work with her.MJ had underestimated Sasha-Lee Van der Merwe, it appeared that the woman was resourceful and cunning. The laptop and phone she got for her were in the car, she was even thinking of not giving the items to her.MJ was forced to drive back to Beaufort West, after releasing her hostage from the basement, she was not planning on going back anytime soon since Sasha would be taken good care of. But now she had to rush back to turn off the fire the crazy woman had started. She arrived at the house around 9p.m. and found Sasha pacing around the sitting room. Sasha's face was a mixture of panic and
Logan was taken aback by Kyle's outburst, it appeared that he walked in at a bad time. He ran into Snegugu on the way and he had no doubt in his mind that she had something to do with this.Kyle was seated at his desk, with his hands over his face."Shouldn't you be celebrating?" He asked."Fuck off, Logan," Kyle sniffed.To tell the truth, he had no idea why he was there. Perhaps he was starting to get comfortable again like he did with Antonina Dos Santos. Logan had attachment issues, once you were good to him, he found it difficult to walk away.It was ironic because Kyle was not exactly being friendly with him, but even though it was not voluntarily, he might as well have taken a bullet for him, and Logan saw an opportunity to have a "friend."It was a scary reality, but Logan was afraid of being alone, and spending all that time with Antonina was a reminder of how much he was missing out on. He had never had a fa
Shannon had forgotten what it felt like to have a friend, it felt as if she has spent the last few weeks of her life with people twice her age just to keep her mind busy.Things had been messy since the entire ordeal with her biological father and Courtney. It still felt surreal. She found out that the father she had known all her life was not her real father, only to find out that her biological father was a bumptious ass who only cared about what the world thought of him.Her best friend who turned out to be a real sister also turned her back against her. She would have loved to believe that her father had turned her against her, but Courtney had always been rebellious, if she wanted to fix things with Shannon, she would have done so a long time ago; but that was not happening anytime soon, it probably will never ever happen again, especially after finding out that Courtney was pregnant, and again she had to find out from one of her other friends.
Why did she seem to always make the wrong choices?The moment MJ blacked out, she could have easily used her phone to call the cops or anyone who could get her out of here, or she have taken the car keys and escaped, but she did not."What do I do, what do I do?" She paced back and forth while biting her nails.She could not understand why she was still there. She grabbed MJ's phone and dialled the last person she called, there was only one number and it was not saved. Either the woman did not use her phone often or she erased her call log. MJ was in and out of slumber, and that made Sasha freak out.It took forever before there was a knock on the door, and she rushed to get it. To say she was shocked to see who was at the door."You?" She quipped, dumbfounded."I'm not sure I even want to know what you are doing here," Kyle Davids said as he pushed past her. "What happened to her?"Sasha closed
Something did not feel right. He tried to ignore this feeling all day, thinking maybe it was just a stomach bug, but it got worse by the hour.He had made himself comfortable at Jorge's beach house, but each day, he saw less and less of MJ. She came back late into the night and left early in the morning, she was like a man having an affair.Cameron was not the one to follow his gut feeling, but he could not help it this time. Her phone was on voicemail.Things just kept getting worse, and he felt useless for not being able to help with anything. He was torn out of his mind by the sound of a car pulling up outside. He dashed for the door and was relieved to see MJ stepping out of the car, but his relief was wasted as a frown appeared on his face. Why was she sitting in the passenger seat, and what the hell was she doing with Kyle Davids?He could not even bring himself to ask those questions when she walked past him and entered
If there was one thing that Samantha Grayson hated more that being provoked, it was name-calling; being called a psycho, people referring her as a sick, twisted person.She was excited about the possibility of meeting the daredevil known as Sasha's Van der Merwe before, but now, all she could think about was how she was going to put an end to her.She could not help herself when she saw that article, it drove her up the wall. Demi had better get her sister to remove that article before the police look into possibility of her allegations. She's lucky I don't know where she is. Samantha thought cunningly as she relaxed in the bathtub. She was still waiting to hear from Caroline's husband to deliver. Considering how leisurely he was taking this matter, it would appear that he did not care much what happened to his wife, perhaps he was dying to punish her for cheating on him and getting impregnated by another man. Men
Demi could not remember the last time she felt so humiliated, she could only imagine what Samantha thought of her, she probably thought Demi was a submissive wife who had nothing to stand on without her husband; which was by bar the honest truth.There was something about Shaka that was commanding, it was difficult to say no to him or go against him. It was funny, because she knew what she was getting herself into when she said ‘I do’, and she never for a second regretted it. As much as Shaka had an authoritative aura, he was always loving and gentle with her, and he allowed her to do as she pleased almost all the time.He always supported her, even against his own family. He never expected her to quit her career and become a housewife like his mother wanted, and he had gone as far as buying her a house so that she could have some privacy and focus on their relationship without his family’s interference.Lately, they hardly saw each other, especially
It was no secret to the world that Antonina was always the last person to leave La Cafe, and that sometimes she stayed up until late. Robberies and burglaries were highly common and frequent around the area, but every player knew that Antonina Dos Santos was off limits, she could be the last person still open after 10p.m., and no one would dare come near her. She was used to it, and until the shootout, she had always closed late, but now she called it a night by 7p.m. and she remained there until 8p.m. before going home.Logan stayed in the car for a while just watching her. He knew it was creepy, but he could not help it. He could not help pondering over the fact that things would have been different had Montana not interfered. Antonina had been of great help to him, and he wanted to do the same for her, he wanted to be there for her and support her during her dark times like she supported him. But he went about it the wrong way.He had thought abo
