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
Juliet's POV.I get out of Luca's house feeling, heart broken as ever. It is unclear to me why I was so unlucky in love. All the men I wanted never wanted me back. It would be better if I just quit in love. I now know I will never be loved the way I want.I believe it is better to get out of town. Likewise, I'm not concerned with my job anymore. I cannot stand seeing Luca every day at work. It will just make me not heal. I get home feeling exhausted. I had the best day today, but it ended in disaster. I feel so down right now. I just take off my shoes and jump to my bed. I sob uncontrollably. My chest was heavy and it ached so much. I did not feel like doing anything. All I wanted right now was to cry until my heart just stops hurting.I was so foolish into thinking that Luca will love me. But now all hope is lost. I cannot fight anymore for what I love. It was best if I just let him be. He will never love me. I saw it in his eyes when I expressed my feelings towards him. He was very
Ella's POV.I get to my room and I take my phone. First I open my gallery and I start looking at Luca's pictures. I had some of his pictures on my phone. He looked so handsome. I don't understand why I have never noticed how handsome he really is. I have never appreciated him. Not even once. But now I am willing to fix everything just for his sake.I gathered all my courage and I decided to call him. At first, he calls me Juliet. I wonder why he called me that. It looked like they had quarreled from the way he yelled at me. I am somehow happy that he is mad at Juliet. I will never let her take my man away from me. He was mine alone. It was a good thing I had called. He was not mad at me as I thought he would. I am glad and happy that we had arranged a date for us to meet and talk. I will use the date to confess my feelings for him. Letting him go was one of my biggest mistakes. I know better now.* * * * * * * * * * * *I woke up in a good mood today. I know later I will see Luca and
Sarah's POV.This is the second day that I have been sick. I looked at myself in the mirror and I could see how pale I looked. At first, I did not want to go to the doctor since I thought I will feel better with time, but now I think it's actually a good idea to go see what was wrong with me.It was a good thing that Felix was not in the house right now because he would have never let me leave the house alone. He irritated me so much. It is only because I am sick that is why I haven't reacted to him yet. I would have shown him something that would have made him not to mess with me again.I get ready and set out. Luckily, I had saved some Money through all these years that I have worked. I know I will not run out of cash soon. I will use it sparingly and only when necessary. I am lucky that I am a girl, and a beautiful girl in fact. So, I know it won't be hard for me to get money. But first I had to get better. I arrived at the hospital, and there were many patients today. I don't kn
Ella's POVI get home with Laura after we were done with the shopping. I had bought her some dresses too, and she was so excited. “Thanks mummy, for all the things you bought me.” She says while going to her room. I guess Mom was still taking her nap. She was always so bored alone at the house doing nothing. Occasionally, I felt like dad wasn't fair with her. He would have given her a job in his company instead of her being just a housewife.I climb upstairs and I see her sleeping. I decide not to disturb her. I know she will wake up anytime soon from now. Furthermore, I needed to be ready for my date. I was so excited about it anyway.I am about to go check on Laura when my phone rings. I take it out of my purse and I see it's Luca calling me. I smile as I pick up his call.Me – Luca, how are you?Luca – I am good, how are you?Me – I am good too. So, what do I owe this special call. Luca – actually, I was thinking. Instead of going to a restaurant, why don't you come over to my ho
Luca's POVI cannot believe that Ella said all that to me. She is in love with me. I have always wanted to hear the words she said to me today. I confessed my feelings to her as well. My feelings for her have never changed. She was worth it. I had waited years for her and now finally she was all mine. “Really, Luca, you feel the same way. I thought I had lost you, especially after finding out about Juliet.” She says.Now I know the reason she called me the same day we went out with Laura and Juliet. It is obvious that Laura told her about Juliet, and I bet she felt so jealous. I feel so glad I took Juliet with us that day because she has brought Ella back into my life.“Juliet?, we were never in a relationship. She is just my workmate.” I assure her.“But Laura told me she went with the two of you when you took her to the park." She says.“Yeah. We went with her. But the truth is she is the one who forced herself on me. I told her I did not feel the same for her. And today when I wen
Ella's POVI wake up and when I turn around, I realize I am not in my room. I look at myself and I am totally naked. I remember the wonderful moment I had with Luca last night. It was so magical, and I wanted to do it again and again. It seems I will never get enough of him. The sex last night was incredible, and I have never had anything like that before. Not even with Felix. Luca was different in every aspect. I am so happy we are together now. I hope we all remain like this forever. I am so afraid that this relationship might end like the last time. All I can do now is just pray that we remain together forever.I turn around, and I see Luca sleeping peacefully beside me. His face looked so handsome, and he looked like a baby when he was sleeping. I gently touch his face with my hand, and he slowly opens his eyes. “Good morning, darling.” He says to me in a still sleepy voice.“Good morning honey. How was your night?" I could not help but ask. “With you by my side, my night was s
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
Ella's POV.I decide to share the good news with Luca, my boyfriend. But not over the phone. I wasted to give him the good news myself. 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
