“I've had a rough day, Ciara, so you better start talking now. You've got no idea what I've been through in the past few hours. I was supposed to come home and rest. But no, what did you do? You decided to rub my face in the mud.” Kelly bemoaned.“Dad, trust me You have got to believe what I say,” Ciara made a move to touch Kelly. “ Don't you dare touch me?You are not going to force me to believe the shit you say. You are not going to look me in the eyes and lie to me, would you?" Kelly transferred all his aggression to Ciara. Kelly didn't sign up for any of the drama. He had wanted to surprise Ciara with the money George sent him. Kelly was the one that ended up being surprised. He wasn't only shocked, it also spoiled the good mood he had brought and replaced it with sadness. “How's your friend, George, doing? I do hope he's getting better. When is he going to be discharged from the hospital? I feel he's spending too much time there,” Ciara asked. She tried to digress from the
It was a new day, promising new hopes and aspirations for Ciara and her Father after the previous night of Royal Rumble. With their chaos, they nearly brought down the entire building. The rays of the morning sun flickered into Ciara's room as she rubbed her blurry eyes. She had been awake since 5:30 AM despite going to bed late the previous night. She barely even slept for three hours before her problem woke her up. Ciara wasn't a coffee drinker, but she stayed awake the whole night, thinking about the unfortunate incident that occurred in her house. No matter how she tried to forget, it kept playing in her head. Like a glued the incident was stuck to her mind. The fact that Derrek forgot some of his clothes and wallet complicated it. Ciara had already assured Walters that she was going to help him get the wallet. Returning the wallet to Derrek wasn't Ciara's fault. Her major concern is avoiding the temptation from Derrek after failing the last time, which, of course, leads t
“You wouldn't dare do something stupid, Ciara. Your mom and I didn't raise you to be this disrespectful towards me,”“Take my mom's name out of your fucking mouth, Dad. She wouldn't treat me this way if she was alive, and you know it. So don't try to defend your mediocrity,” Ciara clapped back immediately with full confidence. Ciara's confidence grew stronger as each day passed. Gone were the days when she could barely even look at Kelly's face and speak. “I don't care what you do or say. The reason you turned out this way is that your late mom spoiled you. But with me, it's not going to be possible. I will do everything possible to ensure you act right. Hand over the paper to me now. I am speaking to you as your Father. It's an order, and you must obey me,” Kelly roared like a wounded lion. Kelly attempted to snatch the phone from Ciara. Unfortunately for him, Ciara saw that coming and edged backward. She stood a few miles away from Kelly should he attempt to punch her in the f
“What am I going to do about this now? My Father won't let me leave. He's not even treating me like this daughter anymore. What have I done for him to deserve this?” Bewildered, Ciara questioned herself. She sought a solution but couldn't get one. She was desperate to go get the keys from Kelly certainly. After seeing that little display by Kelly, Ciara was forced to retract. "He's just going to beat me to a pulp for the first time, and it's going to be one crazy hell of an experience,” Ciara thought. In the process of finding a way out, Ciara thought of something new. She quickly recalled hhow Derrek was able to escape through the back door without Kelly knowing about it.“Yes, the back door. That's precisely what I am going to use.Why didn't I think about this before? My Dad won't even notice anything. Let's see who's smarter now,” She giggled and praised herself for coming up with a solution almost immediately when it felt like all hope was lost. Ciara wasn't even bothere
“You again? What kind of man are you? What do you want from me? Don't you get tired of stalking me? It wasn't enough for you to show up in my house unannounced, now you want to get me killed? How cruel can you get? Do you want me to report you to the cops before you leave me the heck alone?” Ciara yelled at Derek with the loudest voice for almost knocking her down. She didn't even give him a breathing space to explain better. At every attempt to speak, she keeps shutting him down. “Can I at least explain myself better?You are already condemning me without a fair judgment. Even a criminal is entitled to a fair hearing at the court.” Derek pleaded like a pauper. “What do you have to say this time in defense? You certainly have no point. The truth remains that you almost got me killed. How else are you going to defend that? Perhaps, you want to justify the reason you almost got me killed. “ She yelled again. This time, even worse than the first time. The situation was attracting too
“Hold on a second! I hope It's not what I am thinking that's running through your mind right now?” She freaked out. “I don't know what you think I'm thinking. But whatever it is, who knows? It might be a beautiful thing. Don't you think so?” Derek winked at Ciara and winked seductively. “Then you must be the biggest dreamer on earth. I don't see that happening. Just so you know, your dad and my Dad had arranged for your Brother, Dexter and I to be married,” Like a rocket, Ciara launched the shocking news straight into Derek's heart.“What the heck?” Derek exclaimed in shock and pulled over Immediately. “What are you doing? Why did you have to pull over like that? Were you trying to get us killed?”“Have you agreed to get married to my brother?” Asked, Derek as he breathed heavily. He was lucky enough not to suffer a cardiac arrest. The news caught him aware. “Does it matter? I haven't arrived at my destination yet. Unless you want me to come down and start searching for a cab,”
It was just the first day without a Job, and Romeo's life hasn't remained the same anymore. There's a part of him that's missing from inside that he just can't fathom. He would roll to both sides of the bed like a snake due to frustration. He couldn't even summon the courage to tell his wife about the devastating news. He was scared that his wife might react badly to the news or do something crazy. He intends to keep the news to himself for the longest time possible until he's done making Dexter get out of prison.“Honey, I am off to work. I would also drop the kids at school on my way to work. If you ever feel hungry, your food is in the dining room. Love you!” Nancy, Romeo's wife, informed him. She kissed his forehead afterward.26 years of age, light-skinned, curly hair, and curved. They've been married for 10 years and blessed with 3 beautiful kids. Nancy was never supporting Romeo's decision to become a cop. She was scared that he might get shot to death on duty. As a graduat
After spending ten minutes in the bathroom, Romeo stepped outside. At that time, he had already convinced himself that Nancy had gone for good. It was worse than a near-death experience for Romeo. He knew the wife he married and decided to act smart. He hadn't told her yet, and she was already acting like she would set the house ablaze. He can't imagine what will happen when he eventually does. “I just hope I can keep up with this lie for the next 6 months until I get my job back," Romeo prayed. He did a cross sign and went back to bed. The suspension at the station was somehow becoming a blessing in disguise for Romeo because he couldn't call the last time he had that long sleep. Let alone staying at home that long before. It wasn't too long when Romeo went to sleep, and he was already hearing some footsteps in his dream. He thought it was all a dream until he heard someone call his name. “Romeo!” The voice sounded like Nancy's. Instantly, Romeo tossed off the bed as fear grippe
"Sir, I don't think you have the slightest idea who's out there. Because if you do, you will swing into action immediately. Besides, I've tried all I could to get rid of him. Still, he has proven to be difficult," Rhoda cried. She hasn't witnessed anything like that before. Not even some murder cases she had sorted out in the past had stressed the fuck out of her the same way Derek did."Save your explanation. I already know who's out there giving you trouble. Isn't that Derek, the brother of the boy who assaulted Nurse Elizabeth? The same case that got Romeo suspended for months? But what I can't seem to fathom is why you decided to run to me like a coward." Lucas finally lifted his head to speak. His reason was that he wanted Rhoda to read in between the lines and watch his lips move into different positions. "Sir, you knew all along that it was Dexter's brother yet you didn't bother to step outside to my rescue? This is unbelievable!" Rhoda's mouth widened. The shocked look on h
Derek finally arrived at the station after a 30-minute drive. Being his first time visiting that area, it became somewhat difficult for Derek to find the station. "It feels good to finally arrive. What a journey it has been. I never thought that such a station even existed in this region," Derek said as he pulled up to the parking lot of the station. "Stay calm and relaxed, Derek. Just go In there, do your thing, and fucking leave like a Boss. No need for any unnecessary drama. This isn't who you are. You're a mother fucking perfect gentleman," Derek said to him as he strives not to freak out in the presence of the cops. That was Derek's first time visiting the police station, unlike Dexter, who has been there a bunch of times. Aside from Derek's phobia for those kinda places, he was also skeptical since he had heard terrible things about the station. The horrible things he heard contributed to his hatred towards the armed forces and everything that they believed in. Eventually,
“I stopped by the nearest hospital for some check-ups just to be sure that I was safe. Walters's sudden appearance at the house called for it. For someone who hasn't reached out to me In months, I figured that he might have a hidden agenda," Ciara explainedKelly was satisfied. He forced himself to believe that Ciara had touched all areas. But to Ciara, that wasn't a complete story. She omitted the part where she found out that Walters was homeless. He was not just homeless, but he also borrowed the outfit he visited her with. That alone might make Kelly do something he would regret for the rest of his life. “I see.” Kelly sighed.He didn't know what else to say. Ciara had forced him to exhaust his strength.“Dad, I apologize for disobeying you. I didn't know how Walters was able to deceive me into having sex with him. But trust me, there won't be a next time. It's a good thing to know that I am free from any sexually transmitted disease,” Ciara begged her Father. She sat on his l
“I've got a confession to make.Don't take it personally,” Both of them spoke together. It looked as though it were planned, but it wasn't. No one knew that the other one was going to say something. The words just came out of their mouths coincidentally. “Dad, you go first, I will listen,” Ciara said as she hid the test result in her possession. While Ciara planned to hide it away forever, she got caught in the process. She wasn't aware that Kelly had already seen it first. He chose not to ask Ciara about the envelope because he thought it wasn't relevant. Seeing Ciara hide the envelope like contraband goods, he was more convinced to ask about it even if it meant causing a scene.“What's behind you, Ciara? And why are you even hiding it from me, your Father? Is it something I should be worried about?” Kelly stretches his hand forward to retrieve the brown even lope. “What are you talking about, Dad? It's nothing for you to worry about. I wouldn't want us to spoil the fun momen
“This is strange. I wasn't even thinking about that,” Elizabeth was more confused. She had no idea that Olivia never mentioned that to Doctor Escobar. “Olivia, what else did you tell the Doctor?” Elizabeth whispered to Olivia. She was quite confident that a lot of negativity must have been told in her absence. “I am not going to answer that question right now,” Olivia snubbed Elizabeth's question in a grand style“That's enough I don't want you two fighting in my hospital.” Doctor Escobar stopped what would have been a third world war.“Nurse Elizabeth, you stay back while Nurse Olivia and I handle everything,” Doctor Escobar authorized Elizabeth's prayers were answered. However, she didn't express her excitement due to reasons best known to her.“Finally! The stubborn eagle has landed. Look who we have here,” George taunted Doctor Escobar the moment he walked inside the ward with Olivia. “I can see that my message was well sent. I must applaud your nurses for giving me listenin
“How are you feeling today, sir? I want to believe that there's a significant change in your health status, right?” Nurse Olivia asked George with a smile on her face as Nurse Elizabeth watched over. She still wasn't confident enough to look George in the face. Everything about the coopers scares the living daylight out of her. “I'm better now! When will I be discharged? My company needs me. I've been away for too long,” George responded. “That's why we are here, sir. You are getting discharged immediately. You don't have to worry yourself about staying away for too long,” Elizabeth disclosed. That was the first time she spoke for the past couple of minutes she had been In the ward. It even took her a couple of minutes to put the words together as though she was being threatened not to speak. “I don't understand what's going on. Where's the doctor? Why did he send you two to handle this? Is the doctor upset with me?” George raised the concern as he stood up from the bed. Elizabe
“Me? When did that ever happen?” Olivia pointed to herself in the utmost confusion. She looked around to be certain that Elizabeth was actually referring to someone else. “Derek was here?I wasn't even aware of it. When did I even have the conversation with him?" Nurse Olivia went further to defend herself with a salient point to prove her Innocence. She was so good at it that to the point where Elizabeth was starting to doubt her instinct. “Who could have told him if it wasn't you?”“Could you believe that Derek threatened me to disclose the address of the station where Dexter was arrested? He was so confident and made me believe that someone told him. The only person who came to my mind was you,” Elizabeth confessed.“You have got to be kidding me. What do you think about me? What about Doctor Escobar? Have you ever thought If he was responsible for this? Think about this,” Olivia suggested.“Holy grail! Of course, it's Doctor Escobar. Now I remember everything. He might have tol
“What do you need me to do for you? Just name your price and I will gladly pay, without forcing a negotiation,” Nurse Elizabeth agreed without even listening to Derek's demands.Nurse Olivia wasn't really concerned about the consequences of Derek's demand. To her, that was the perfect opportunity to redeem herself, and she's ready to make the best of the moment, regardless of the challenges it might be for her.“I trust you were going to comply. That's the shit I am referring to. I've always known I could bank on you,' Derek gave out a wicked smile.Leaning forward, Derek rested his hand on Elizabeth's shoulder and whispered to her ears. “I will need the address of the station my brother was arrested in. I want to believe you can grant my request, right?”“What the heck?”Elizabeth almost screamed. However, she was quick to cover her mouth to avoid attracting the attention of others“What's that about, girl?Wait a minute! Were you about to scream? You were lucky that never happened.
“What does it matter? Can we not talk about it and focus on what brought me here?” Ciara waved it off. She wasn't known to be letting go of situations like that. Most especially the ones that involve her getting disrespected or insulted. “I see. Whatever you wish for is fine by me. Now tell me. What do you want to discuss? I am all ears,” Adrian asked. He stopped being over-excited to avoid being perceived as a joke. It was already obvious to him that Ciara didn't come to play games. “Before I proceed, can you please shut the door? I wouldn't want anyone barging in to hear what I want to discuss with you about,” Ciara pleaded. This was the part that got Adrian confused the most. He couldn't understand where Ciara was driving. “Now you're getting me confused. What seemed to be the problem? Why should I lock the door? Do you feel threatened?” “Nevermind! It's fine if you don't want to lock the door. I understand your reason and I won't judge you,” Ciara retreated immediately. She w
