Sarah's POV.“What is going on? Where am I?” I say. I turned my eyes and I didn't recognize the place I was in. The bed where I was lying was so smooth and the room was so bright since everything in it was white, including the bedsheets.I don't know what happened to me. Right now, I felt pain all over my body, especially in the belly area. I could not even touch it. The pain was too much, and I could not bear it anymore. I started crying because of the pain. I didn't know what was happening to me. Or maybe it's because of the abortion I had that was making me this way?I tried to get up from the bed, so I could search for help outside. I would rather not die alone in a room like this. I feared all this so much. When I turned around to look at the bed, all I could see was blood everywhere. It seemed my bleeding did not subside. I was still bleeding the same way I bled before leaving the hospital. I wonder if the doctor had performed this abortion wrongly. I did not even know the doct
Felix POVI cannot believe I did that to the woman I claim to love with all of my being. The truth is, I had reached my limit with her. It is better we had not gotten married, yet, otherwise it would have been a real disaster for me.I remember how I was excited about her pregnancy and all she ever did was shatter the dream of becoming a father. I just could not contain it anymore. That is why I chased her out of my house. I loved her, but I was done with her.I hate what my life has turned to. Every day was just disasters ever since I lost my work. This is not what I had wished for in life. All the things I had achieved were falling apart now as I watched, since I could not do anything. I was now alone and jobless. I don't know where to start from.Sarah was beautiful and I loved her very much. But she was entirely different from Ella. My Ella was so understanding, she stayed with me all the period I was jobless. She never left me alone, in fact, she was the one who kept encouraging
After Five months.Sarah's POVI am fit and well. My beauty and figure have come back to me now. I am no longer pregnant, and not with Felix either. My health was perfectly fine now, and I was ready to continue with my life from where I had stopped.I remember I had bled for over two months. I thought I will die from blood loss, but I guess my time had not yet arrived, there were great things for me ahead. That is why I was given a second chance. I promise never to waste it.“Are you ready.” I hear Clara's voice. She was in her room getting herself ready. Today was Friday and I wanted to spend this day in the club. Since I was ok, I needed to make money right away. One way of doing that was going to the club to trap some rich man.“Yes, girlfriend, I am more than ready.” I say back to her.“Let's go then. I have to work, remember, and you are just there to enjoy yourself.” She says.“Ok madam, time manager.” I say with a smile on my face.With no time, we arrived at the club. There we
Stephen Mark's POV. (Ella's dad.)I can't help but stare when I spot a gougers lady sitting at the counter. I am sure I have never seen her before. This was my first time. I could not control myself anymore, and I decided to follow her. To my luck, everything went well with our talk and I ended up giving her my card.“Sarah, I really hope you will call me because I want to see you again and also know more about you.” I said to myself as I was getting inside my house. The truth is, I hated being here. That is why I always arrive late at night. It was always so boring when I entered our bedroom and I saw Susan every single day. It's not like I hate my wife, I truly love her, but she was the one who made me keep my distance from her. She always denied me my conjugal rights. I got tired of this and that is why I started coming home late. I always looked for s×x anywhere I could find it. And I think I was satisfied with the way I was living now. I don't know the last time I touched my wif
Sarah's POV.I reach home and I sit on the sofa as I keep staring at the card. I dialed the number to my phone to save it. “ are you going to call now?” I hear Clara asking me.“No friend. I will do it tomorrow morning. But I am so excited and nervous too. But it's what I had wanted all this time, to find myself a rich man. And finally an opportunity is here. I will not waste it.” I say.“That is the way to go. I am so tired. I am going to my room now.” She says as she closes her room. “Good night.” I say to her.I am left on the couch just staring at the card. Likewise, I liked the name written on it. 'Stephen mark. Owner of mark group of companies.' I could not stop staring at it.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * It's morning already. I get myself ready even if I have nowhere to go. I have not worked in months now, and I had exhausted whatever I had saved in my account. Luckily, last night, Steve gave me a lot of cash. I had to help Clara with the household expenses. Since I was liv
Stephen Mark's POVI am so happy Sarah had decided to call me. I had thought that I would never see her again. But now we had a lunch date together. I decided to leave the office early, so I would not keep her waiting.I reached the hotel twenty minutes before one o'clock. I also order my favorite wine, so I will not be bored the entire time that I am waiting for her. * * * * * * * * * * * * *“I hope I have not kept you waiting.” I hear a lady's voice. I look up and it is Sarah. I was so lost in my thought that I did not notice her walk into the restaurant. She looked so beautiful. I fell in love with her immediately I saw her today. Her figure made me erect that instant, and it was so hard to control myself in front of her. I had to respect myself considering my age, and also I was in a public place right now."No you haven't. You look so beautiful, Sarah, thank you for coming here.” I say when she was finally seated.“Anything for you, Steve.” She says.When she said my name, s
Sarah's POVMy date was so good. Everything was going my way so far, and I was pleased about all this. Finally, it was my turn to enjoy the goods of this earth. Actually, not this earth, the goodies of Stephen. I will make sure I collect enough cash for myself from him. All I needed to do was just to accept everything he was telling me. I needed to make him happy and in return, he will shower me with material things.We were now in his car heading home. His car was so fancy. I couldn't help but smile when I was in it. “So, where should I drop you, pretty lady?” He asks before he starts driving, and I tell him my direction. It's so quiet in the car because I don't know what to say to him. I cannot ask him about his family and wife because I know I will upset him. It is better for him to tell me about his family on his own. "Here we are. House number 781. I will not forget the place. Let me write it down first.” He says as he saves the house number on his phone. He was getting old, so
Felix POVThe only job I have managed to acquire so far is a security guard. Actually, it was better than being totally jobless. It did not pay me much, but I managed to pay all my expenses and also remained with a few cash. I was also happy because where I was working now it was only a few blocks from where Laura lived. So I know it will be easy to find her. I wanted to see her so badly, and I will do anything for me to be with her once more. I don't care if she has a boyfriend. * * * * * * * * * * Just like the usual days, I get myself ready for work. I was not living far away from where I was working, so I usually walked, and I was used to it already. I did not like the job at all because it was a must to wear a uniform, but there was nothing I could do about it. It was better if I got used to it because it is the same job that kept me going. I get out of my humble house and start heading to work. Where I lived is where poor people lived. There, life was somehow cheap because
Ella's POV.After five months.Five months now after that bad day of our lives. We were happy again. The incident was already forgotten from our minds. It was time to move on from the past. We had a lot to focus on for the future.My mother had recovered completely. She was now using both her legs without any problem. She was so happy with her current condition. Things between her and dad were fine now. They went into being the loving couple they once were, and I was so proud of them. At last, my mom was happy with dad. They were now planning to renew their vows.“I just want a small wedding.” Mom said once and my dad was planning to go as per her wish.* * * * * * * * My daughter, Laura. Had completely recovered from the shock of that day. She had now resumed school, and she was doing so well in her studies. I was so proud of her. She was a strong girl, and I was so blessed to have her as my daughter. Luca and I were also together. Now, we saw each other all the time. I was so happy
Ella's POVSeeing my daughter in that situation made me feel so weak. I asked myself so many questions. Why was my daughter passing through so much? It wasn't fair to her. Right now, I am embracing my daughter so tightly. She was crying really hard. I just wanted to calm her down. She witnessed another murder in front of her when the police shot Sarah. They police were now taking Sarah's dead body to the morgue. My dad and mom were just there, staring with disbelief in their eyes. In such a short time, the whole party was ruined. Luca was there too, just holding my hand. His support made me feel safe and loved. “Let's go and sit there, love. You have been standing for a long time now. Your feet must be tired already. Laura baby, let me carry you please.” Luca says after the police leave with Sarah's body.“Yes baby. Let's go. I am already exhausted.” I say, and he carries Laura and takes us to where mom and dad were.“Mom, dad. Why is this always happening.” I say as I embrace my p
Sarah's POV.After leaving Clara's home. I decide to just stay on the streets. I looked miserable, by the way. So if I go to the club, no man will look at me. I did not look attractive at all. My body curves were all gone, and all that was due to prison food. Since I hated the food there, my beautiful body was gone. I looked really emaciated. The streets were so cold, especially during the nights. In these two days I have slept here, I slept hungry. There was no food and people refused to give me any money. I hated my life so much. I just wish I had not escaped prison. I thought life would be easy after escaping, but it was more tough than in prison.Today, when I wake up, I see a commotion with the people in the streets. It's like they were going somewhere important. I am curious to know where they are going, and I decide to ask them.“There is a party today and some rich family. They are going to cook a lot of food, and we will be given some leftovers after the party.” One of them
Ella's POV.Everything was ready. Starting with the food, drinks, decorations. Our house was beautifully decorated to celebrate my parent's reunion. I was so happy today. All I ever wanted was to see my parents together always. At last, my parent's happiness was back. I was so happy, and I could not hide the joy anymore. I climb upstairs to help my mom get dressed. It was still early. People has not yet started to arrive. I know in a short while, people will start coming here to celebrate our happiness with us.“Mom, can I come in?” I knock on her door.“Yes, dear, please come in. I need your help with this dress. I cannot wear it on my own.” My mom says. Clearly she was happy to see me in her room. Her leg was still bandaged.“How are you feeling today, mom. I mean, it's your big day. Finally, you will announce your reunion with dad. It's just a special day." I ask her.“I feel so much alive, baby. Words cannot express how happy I feel. At long last, your dad came back to me. I had
Sarah's POV.“Where do you want me to drop you?” The man asks. I had already started dozing off in his beautiful car. I was so tired from walking, and I was also hungry. I did not even have money, so I can't go to the hotel. I know they will refuse to accommodate me. “Just drop me here, please.” I say to him and he stops the car.“Are you sure you can continue from here? You look weak and tired.” The man says.“Yes. I can continue. Thank you so much. I appreciate your generosity.” I say as I open the car door and come out of it. The man speeds up his car and drives off. I am left stranded, not knowing where to go. With the way I was feeling, I needed somewhere to rest. I felt like I might pass out anytime. “Clara. I know she will not refuse me. I will go to her house and beg her to let me stay at her house just for a few days." I say to myself. Clara was the only one whom I knew in this town. She was my best friend before I ruined it all. But I know she still loves me a lot. So I w
Sarah's POV.I wake up feeling a little better. But I was so hungry. I have not taken anything since yesterday. My stomach was rumbling so much. If I don't find anything to eat, I will definitely starve to death.My arm was feeling a bit better now. It wasn't painful like yesterday. I slowly get up, and I decide to check up the house. Maybe I will be lucky enough to find something to fill my stomach with. I manage to find an old fridge. I decide to open it and check it out. I find only two cans of soda. It's like the person who was living here had decided to vacate the place. Perhaps she got tired of staying in a place like this. It was so boring. There was no electricity and also no water. I don't know where she found water to use.“I am going to starve for sure if I continue staying here” I say as I take the two cans of soda. It was time to leave from here. I will do it now. I know the police are looking for me. And if I continue to stay here. They will find me easily. I find some
Ella's POV.I get back home and I find my family asleep. They looked so peaceful together. I felt so happy seeing them together. It has been long since my family slept together like this. Ever since my dad and mom separated, mom has always been so dull and unhappy. But now I could see a glow on her face. She looked so beautiful, and I smile just by looking at her. She deserved to be happy forever. That is what I wanted most in this life. I notice they had left the television on. It's obvious they fell asleep while watching the movie. I decide to switch it off. Before switching it off. There is a news break. I decide to check what was that important in the middle of the night. I almost get a heart attack when I see the news that was being shown on the television.“The prison bus had an accident? And that Sarah escaped. How is that even possible?" I try to ask myself. It felt so strange. I know she will come to revenge for calling the police men on her. And I know the first house she

So right now, I was driving to his place.It is seven in the evening. My relationship with Luca has not been the best. I mean we have gone through a lot together and despite that he still on my side. He loves me so much, and I love him so much too. I know in my heart that he is meant for me and that there is nothing that is going to separate us. Not now or ever.I had left Laura under dad's care. Today, mom was feeling a little better, but her leg was still in pain. So dad had decided to take her downstairs. I left them there enjoying their movie. Laura had decided to join them in their movie. She was getting better. I think our family reuniting has given her the peace she wanted. And that is a good thing. I was so happy when mom decided to forgive dad. At last, my family is happy again.After about a few minutes of driving, I reach Luca's house. Jus
Sarah's POV.Prison life was making me run mad. And what came to my mind was how to escape from this horrible place. Everyone feared the thought of running away from prison. But right now, that was what I wanted. I know I had promised myself that I was going to be a good girl and spend my twenty years here. But the situation was becoming unbearable. I was losing it. I mean, there was no point in pretending that I liked it here.I decide that one of these days when I get a good chance, I will just escape. The only thing I had to do was find a good opportunity to do so. Since I could not trust anybody, I decide to make it a secret. * * * * * * * * * * * * Just like always, I wake up, take my bath and I head for breakfast. Since it was the day to work in the fields, I get inside the prison vehicles, and they start driving towards the farm. “Hey just hold on tightly, the bus has lost control. We are going to crush.” We hear the taxi driver say. My heart pounces hard on its chest. Was
