Luca's POVI get home feeling exhausted but happy. Today I saw Ella and my precious Laura. I will never forget this moment. I know now Ella will give me permission to spend time with Laura. I hope it happens that way. I was in a good mood today. So, I decided to treat myself by cooking a good meal since it was still early. After I am done, I sit at my dining table and I start enjoying my meal. The heartbreak I was feeling has subsided a bit. I had accepted my fate that Ella and I will never be together, but the good part is that my bond with Laura will never break.I am about to take a bite of my food when my phone starts ringing. My heart hoped that it was Ella that was calling but when I checked my phone it wasn't her but Juliet. I wonder why she was calling at this hour. It was so late already for her to be calling me.Me – Juliet. Why are you calling me at this hour?Juliet – just relax, handsome. There is no need to get angry over a silly matter. Anyway, how are you?Me – I am o
Juliet's POVEver since I spent the night at Lucas house, I really cannot get him out of my mind. He meant the world to me, and I really can't wait for the day when he finally notices me. I feel like I don't want to spend any minute away from him. I love him, and I will do anything for him to start feeling the same way I do.This morning I had called him like three times, but he did not pick up my calls. This left me so heartbroken. But I don't give up. I decided to call one more time, and I was lucky that he picked it at last. I begged him until he decided to allow me to go over to his house. That was all I wanted and whatever I wanted I must get it. He was the one I badly wanted, and I will make sure to have him anytime from now.* * * * * * * * * * *I start preparing myself to go over to his house. I am so excited that I will see him today. Finally, I will be at his house again. The last time I went there, I had so much fun. I miss spending time with him. I just hope he will feel
Luca's POV.I admit that Juliet cooks really well. I had enjoyed her food so much. I remember we nearly kissed after we collided in the kitchen door. When our eyes met, I felt something, but it was only physical. As the only woman I was in love with was Ella. I don't know if I will ever love another woman the way I love her. But I will forget. I have to move on.“Thank you for the food.” I say to her as I retire to my couch. Sundays were always so boring for me because I had nothing to do. Just staying at home doing nothing. I was somehow glad that Juliet was here, at least I had someone to talk to. Today she had really behaved. So far, she has not told me anything that upset me.“You are welcomed.” She said, smiling broadly. I could see the sparkle in her eyes. The thing I had started suspecting was that she had feelings for me. I really didn't mean to hurt her feelings because I felt the complete opposite. “So what now. Are you going to tell me what brought you to my house?" I aske
Felix POVI am jobless again. This time round, I am the cause. All this is because of my love for Sarah. I am obsessed with her completely, and there is nothing I will do that will make me fall out of love with her.But now I am the reason she has lost her job too. I fear if she will ever forgive me. So, it was better if I headed home straight away. I know she is crying a lot right now, and I don't want her to be alone in this tough time. I must be by her side even if I am hurting too.Furthermore, I park my staff at the office and then I leave. With a heavy heart, I turned around, and I looked at my desk, I felt a hot tear coming out of my eye. I got this job with a lot of difficulty, and now I had to leave it because of a very silly mistake. The bosses were too tough with their decision. I feel they were being unfair. But what is done, is done already and there was no way I could change their minds now.I reached home and, to my surprise, the door was closed but since I had my key w
Ella's POV.“Mummy. Can you please call uncle Luca? I want to see him.” My daughter was so stubborn. She has said this to me for over ten times now. I did not have a choice but to call him and let him pick her up at the gate. I knew if I refused her request, she would run away. I knew she was safe with him, so there was nothing to worry about.They took the whole day and when it was getting dark, he called me to pick her up at the gate. From the way Laura was smiling, I could say she had a really great day.* * * * * * * * * * * * * “So how was your day, baby. What have you carried for me” I asked Laura. “My day was so beautiful mummy? I wanted you to be there. But Aunt Juliet was there too. She was so good to me.” Laura says to me.“Aunt Juliet? Who is that?" I asked in shock. I have never heard of anyone named Juliet before. This name was new to me. “Mummy, Uncle Luca came with Aunt Juliet. And we went together.," she says.I could not believe it. Luca only loved me, and there is
Sarah's POVI find myself at home sleeping almost naked on my bed. My head was aching like hell. I remember being so drunk last night. And all that was because of Felix. Now I don't have anything to do. No work, just sitting home doing nothing. I really hated this. I hared him too. I slowly drag myself to the shower. I then dress up and come to the living room. I spot Felix sleeping on the couch. I did not like seeing him. He disgusted me so much right now, and he was the last person I wanted to see today.I decided to let him be because if I talked to him right now, I might end up saying something I will regret later. I headed straight into the kitchen to cook something for myself because I was starving right now. Since yesterday, I did not put my stomach. Luckily, I found some food covered up and I decided to heat it up. Felix had cooked for me. He was really caring and loving towards me. But I don't think I will continue being with him, especially now that we are both jobless.Sin
Susan Mark's POVI am happy to give my daughter some advice about Luca. I am glad to know that she has feelings for him. I am happy that she had moved on from the heartbreak that Felix had given her. Finally, she was ready to love again. This time she fell in love with a good man, and I was sure of that. Luca has always been there for her and not once had he forced her into loving him even when he was terribly hurt by all these.I want Ella's life to be full of happiness. I know she will get that happiness from Luca. Him, together with Ella and Laura, makes a wonderful family. All I want is the life of my daughter to be better and not like mine.Here I was seated as I waited for my husband to arrive. I don't know when last I had s.x with my husband, yet we were married. This is not the life I had dreamt for myself. I hated all this, but still, I loved my husband so much. We had come a really long way. He had promised to answer me about what I had suggested to him, and that was to spen
Luca's POVI was now back home. Spending time with Laura was so beautiful. I had enjoyed the most. But here I was with Juliet, she was still at my house despite knowing that it was already dark outside. I was really hating this right now.I had an idea back then at the park. I was thinking of using her to get over Ella, but now I just see that idea as pointless. Furthermore, I cannot be with someone who irritates me. It will be a bad idea.“I will be going now.” I hear Juliet say. Her eyes said something else. It's like she did not want to go. I felt so sorry for her. It is obvious she was in love with me. I could see that earlier when she was looking at me. It would be better if I told her the truth that I was in love with someone else. And I cannot be with her. She deserved to know the truth.“It's ok. Thanks for today, Juliet.” I say to her.“Really, thank you, is all you can say?” She says in an angry voice. “What do you want me to say?, I don't understand where all this is comin
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

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.
