Molly:I knew crying wouldn't fix anything, so instead of crying, I lay on my bed waiting for Farrell to return.He returned very late, but then he never came to my room. I slept alone through the whole night until the next day.I was woken up this morning by the sound of my room being unlocked. Opening my eyes, I pushed open my eyes only to see Rose standing in the room with a tray of food in her hand."Your breakfast ma'am," she said to me, and then she kept the food on the table."Let me know if you'll need anything else," she said,and then I shook my head.This was madness, and I feared that Farrell was about to lock me up in this room, but I chose to think otherwise.I walked to the bathroom to freshen up. After brushing, I took a bath, and I wrapped towels around my body after cleaning it. The moment I stepped out, I saw Farrell in my room."I see your food has arrived," he said, and then I looked at him with my brows creased.I knew the next thing he was about to say, and my h
Farrell:Seeing Molly black out made me weak to my knees, and I freaked out until the doctor arrived. This would have been a good time to call Courtney but we hadn't spoken since the incident, and I had been the one who had refused to take her calls."It appears your wife has been starving for quite a while and she is on her period too," he said, and then I felt a surge of rage.I wasn't supposed to get angry at her, but then there was no way I couldn't. She made life almost unbearable for me as the days went by and at the moment I was really tired. I had no clue on what I was supposed to do with this information."Is she going to be alright?" I asked and before he could answer, Molly began to cough. She pulled her eyes open, and she stared at me while holding her forehead with her palm."She is awake, and she needs some food," he said."Do whatever you have to do," I said to the doctor, and then I walked away in anger.She definitely hated me very much because if she didn't then she
Farrell:I had a lot to drink for the day, and I didn't stop. While I drank I reminisced on my past life, but when the alcohol kicked in, I totally forgot about everything.Getting a little tipsy, I decided to rest, but then my phone rang in the moment. Lazily picking my phone from the table, I saw that Lorenzo was the caller."Hello," I said with a drawl."I think I found something. Meet me at Charlie's Anjels," he said, and he ended the call.Groaning deeply, I pushed myself up from where I sat. I managed to push myself out of the office and to the elevator. Letting Lorenzo see me this drink was something I didn't want. Even though he would try to offer help to me, I didn't want it.I was a one man army, and I could handle my problems without anyone's help, and that was what I was going to do.Finally, I made downstairs. I got into my car, and I drove off immediately.*******The sky was almost dark by the time I got to the bar. When I parked my car and got down, I dipped my hand in
Farrell:The next time I pulled my eyes open it was morning. I woke up to a poorly lit room which seemed different. The bed wasn't as soft and plush as the one at home, and beside me lay a naked woman which wasn't Molly. She was red haired."Fuck!" I exclaimed, pulling off the blanket to realize I was naked.At that moment, everything that happened last night flooded in. I had sex with this lady, and she was a hooker.I stood up immediately, and put on my pants which were lying on the ground. Then I grabbed my shirt from a chair I probably flung it on. After that I put on my jacket which was on the foot of the bed.Reaching for my pocket, I grabbed my wallet. Then I pulled out ten hundred dollar notes, and left it on the table. I turned to leave when I heard the voice of the lady."You are leaving so soon?" She asked.Then I turned around."Look, it would be best if we act like what happened now didn't happen," I said to her."Why? Didn't I satisfy you? You should have seen your face
Molly:Sorry has a limit to what it could fix but I wasn't sure Farrell was aware of this. Saying he was sorry, and throwing a lot of cash at me was his defense mechanism."I'm not asking you to just forgive me. I made a mistake last night, I know I should have walked away, but..""But you couldn't help it? You couldn't help being with other women because I will never be enough for you?" I asked with tears streaming down my cheek.He turned around immediately, and he moved in to hold me but I backed away, because I didn't want his hands on my body. He had hurt me so much, and I felt that I was better off without him.It was best he let me go. I know I would regret it because even though it was unhealthy, I really loved this man and I couldn't see myself without him, but then I couldn't keep putting myself in the hands of a man that barely loved me."I love you Molly, and I have said it a million times, and I'm honestly sorry for what I did. You can demand for anything, and I would hav
Farrell:This woman was definitely out of her senses. Leaving wasn't part of the plan, and who says she could leave? There was no way I was going to allow that to happen under my watch."You go nowhere!" I growled, pinning her down to the wall.I had made a terrible mistake which I wasn't proud of, and I was too disoriented this morning to even think of covering up my tracks. Next time I would definitely listen to my guts, not like I'm planning to cheat on her again, because I would definitely not forgive myself.She always said money wasn't everything, but that was all I could offer. My life was as good as worthless, but I had a lot of money.Since she arrived, she had been the only ray of light in my dim life and there was no way I would easily let her go. Matter of fact I was ready to kill whoever it is that she would end up with. She was mine, and I wasn't going to let her go."I never want to hear you say those words! Understood?" I questioned and she nodded while shrieking in fe
Molly:When Farrell said those words, I stared at him like he had hit his head, or maybe he was on crack. Where was he moving to? And why can't I be the one to move."What?" I finally asked with my face scrunched up."This house is fully guarded by eight new men, and there are helpers and workers at your beck, and call," he said."And how does that justify you leaving?""Is this a ploy to go back to your mistress? Haven't you had enough?" I asked, and he stared at me with an angry face.I couldn't care less at the moment because all the necessary damages had been done."Will you let me finish, please, before jumping into conclusion?" He asked, and then I sunk into the bed.Waiting for him to finish before I spark up would be the best, so I shut my mouth, and listened."We both know that our lives are in danger, and I can never ever risk your life. I would rather risk mine. This is all my fault, and if I had resisted my urges then this wouldn't have happened. I'm not asking you to for
Farrell:I acted really tough on the inside but I couldn't deny the fact that I felt everything falling, and crumbling. What the future held for Molly and I bothered me, but I couldn't say it to her. I didn't want to leave, and I doubt I would be able to stay a month without her. I would lose my fucking mind.She was everything to me, but she would never believe me even if I said it a million times. If I could undo what I had done yesterday night, then I would do it, but that was impossible.When I was done with eating, I walked to the room, and then I began to pack my bags for a month. I would definitely call, and text daily, because I wasn't going to be at rest. I didn't want something terrible to happen to her.While I was packing, my phone beeped, and it was a message from Lorenzo."Hey man, call me if you can," Giving off a sigh, I decided to call him. I took my phone, and searched up his name. Then I clicked the call button."Hello," I said as soon as the call connected."Hey m
Molly: I sat on the terrace, taking in the breathtaking scenery, from swaying trees to flocks of chirping birds. Everything was lovely, and it gave me a warm feeling in my chest. I reflected on my life five years ago with my eyes closed. I could have sworn I made the wrong decision with Farrell that night, but the opposite has been true. Everything went swimmingly, except for the fact that my mother died without recognizing me. Rest in peace, sweet soul. But I am grateful for that night at the club and whatever made him magically attracted to me. I was still trying to enjoy the moment when Corduroy let out a piercing scream. I blinked open my eyes and sighed heavily. How could I have forgotten the most exciting, yet stressful, part? Being a mother! “Mummy!”Corduroy called out in a shaky voice, forcing me to stand. I walked out onto the terrace and into the penthouse. Corduroy pushed the door open before I could reach for it, and he looked up at me with teary eyes. As he cried, I
This is me releasing a sincere apology for my readers, and I have a good reason for not updating. 1. I have been sick for a while, and this has been due to stress, and pressure. I am a final year student and my course is not an easy one, plus my exams are near. 2. This story has only one chapter remaining actually, and I have been editing it ahead of completion. I'm sorry that I do not have more words to add, because I do not want to drag the story line, but I promise to come up with a new and better story as soon as my exams are over. I would give you all the opportunity to choose your preferred genre, and I will get to work. I love you all for giving my first story this kind of opportunity, and I can never thank you enough. I'm really sorry for my shortcomings. please if you see this, don't forget to comment with your preferred genre. Thank you.
Molly:*Beginning of flashback*"I'm hungry, and my tummy hurts," I said to Andrew who had just gotten back from work. He signed and made his way up the stairs, brushing shoulders with me."Foolish child," he said, and I muttered a "God bless you,"I didn't think he would hear me, but before I could tell, he yanked me by my hair and flung me on the wall."If your mother won't teach you how to behave then I'll do that. It's my duty as your stepfather to teach you how to respect your elders," he said, and I scoffed.He slapped my cheek, and then pushed me down on the ground. After which he kicked me on my stomach. Then he crouched down close to me, and pressed hard on my jaw."Remember, you can't say a word to your mother if you want her to live," he said to me, and left while I stayed on the cold floor in pain, sobbing silently.My mother usually returned late because she ran her business from morning until late at night. She did all this because Andrew couldn't provide adequately for
Molly:At first I was dumbfounded when Farrell said those words. I couldn't believe it was finally going to happen. I felt weird for a moment, and I reached out to him when he turned to leave. I walked in front of him, and held his face then looked him in the eyes."You don't have to do this, and…""I have decided to let go of the past, and that is the only way that this would work," he said. "I love you Molly, and I want us to work," he added, and then he kissed my lips briefly, before taking my hand.As we walked down the hallway that led to the room, my heart thumped very fast. I feared what I would see and at the same time I was curious.I felt an in rush of air which left my body with goosebumps as we came to a halt in front of a door. He took out the keys from his pocket, and unlocked the door. As he opened it, I took in a deep breath, and shut my eyes. Then I walked in, and opened my eyes to see a crisp bedroom.At first I was in awe at what I had seen. My room was nothing comp
Molly:My body trembled in fear as I felt Lola's tiny hands hold mine. I was blind folded so I couldn't see her but I knew that something terrible was going on. She sobbed silently, and I placed her head on my lap."Don't cry, we will be fine," I said to her trying to hush her, but she wouldn't stop."Will mummy die?" She asked, and I felt my heart crumble in multiple pieces.Having to accept that your parents were evil hit different, but then she had to be grateful that Courtney wasn't her real mum. Well she didn't know this yet so it was understandable that she would cry over what was going on."Mummy will be fine, and your uncle will save her," I lied even after I had heard the gunshot, and Courtney who was shrieking in pain.This child was going to suffer a lot of trauma, but I promised myself to take good care of her, because the only place close to home would be Farrell's house, and I wasn't sure he was stable.The door of the room opened after a while, and I heard someone appro
Farrell:When I got a hold of the gun, I smacked Courtney gently on the face and she fell to the ground then I put the gun in my pocket, grabbed Lola and walked towards the room I heard Molly's voice.Before I could get to it, Courtney jumped on my back, and grabbed hard on my neck. Her hands were obviously weak, and watching her struggle would have been funny in a different scenario."Can't you see I'm trying to save you!" She yelled, and I yanked her off my back.I pushed Lola into the room."Farrell," Molly called out from where she sat with blind folds but I didn't respond, I shut the door, and faced Courtney.The fact she kept acting as if I was in danger and needed help from her made me angry. There was definitely no amount of help that she could offer me at this point."Save me from what? You had one job but each time you were around, you only made me feel worse. I can't believe I failed to realise it until now," "Ingrate!" She scoffed, and then she stood up."Do you know how
Farrell:"Courtney what is…" I was about to complete my question when I looked away from Lola to see Courtney holding a gun.I became alarmed at once, and I tapped my pocket to see that my gun was gone. I turned around to see if there was anyone behind, and I realized Courtney was actually pointing the gun at me."Come here, Lola," she said, and then Lola shook her head, holding right on my neck.Deep down I wished I could handle the situation better but then I knew that the only way to think properly was to hand Lola over. Lola screamed in fear asI put down at once. "You'll be fine," I said to her as I pushed her over to Courtney who looked blood thirsty. I couldn't understand what was going on, and I didn't want to get violent yet. This had to be a joke because there was no way she would openly threaten Lola with a gun. She loved Lola so much."This has got to be a joke right?" I asked, Courtney and she laughed briefly then she placed her hand firmly on the trigger."Does it look
Farrell:"Maria!" I screamed, and then I jerked up at once. I looked around to see that I was lying on Maria's bed.The sun had just risen, and I guessed I had slept walk once more but this time it was for a good cause. I stood up from the bed,and walked to her dresser where her combs and everything were still perfectly laid out. I picked one of them, and I found a few strands of her hair on them. "You were really here," I muttered, running my hand on the comb. Suddenly a very gentle breeze swept by, giving me a brief chilly feel that had the hairs on my body standing, and goosebumps sprouting out of my body."Rest in peace, my love," I said with a deep sigh.I felt an inrush of emotions as I did when I met her, but this time I wasn't angry. It felt nice knowing she was in a good place, and all that could have been was terrible so I was grateful that it never happened.They said you couldn't have your cake, and eat it so I took a deep breath, shoving off the emotions that engulfed
Farrell:After so much contemplation, I grabbed the keys to Maria's room. I made up my mind to keep an open mind. I had to heal from this trauma, or else I would pass it over to my innocent kids who were on the way.When I left my room, I noticed how late it was. Molly crossed my mind, and I hope deep down that she could hold on a little longer until I figured myself out. Quietly, I walked through the long hallway that led to her room. I placed my ear on the door opposite which was were the old lady stayed. I heard her giggle to herself as usual, and I turned around to face Maria's door.I walked to the door, inserted the key, and pulled it open. To my greatest surprise he lights were on, and I heard the shower running."What the?" I questioned myself, slamming the door, and rushing to the bathroom to turn off the shower.The thought that Molly just have been here got me annoyed a bit but then I tried to push it away. I had to push off every little hint of anger. I began to convince
