CIARA

“Look, Herzl, this is not where you are meant to be, and we have no time to waste. We are leaving, so, I guess you should go get the things you need to go along with.”

I wasn’t supposed to let him down, but I had to because I want to caution Ryan who was standing by the staircase adding more fuel to the tripod and causing the yellow flames to darken the pot with soot.

“I’m not getting anything from inside. This is my home, I’m going nowhere, mom.” He said and sat on the floor, focused on his anime movie.

Indeed, these guys had spilled stuffs into my son’s mouth, and forced him to down it without spitting a bit of it out like kids do when you give them syrup medications that doesn’t taste really good.

My face burned with rage, and the thumping of my heart against my chest increased by three folds, making me breath faster than normal.

I could bear anything, but having my most treasured jewel turn me down in the presence of my adversaries is the worse feeling that would ever be in

    CIARA“I understand, ma’am, but I have so much to take care of now. Please help me tell your Ryan to get me my son. It’s time to go home.”She shook her head and dabbed her eyes the second time to trap the tears welling up her eyes. Maybe she finds it really easy to shade tears and she wants me to believe she was really as sad as she posed to be.Ryan would always put up some shit to get what he wants, but I guess that old trick of his would only work out on those who don’t know him at the first place. I know him, I had been with him, seen his nakedness, fucked him, and knew how crafty he was and would always be.“Of course, you will have your kid, but remember to keep it at the back of your mind that Ryan is a changed man, and if only you would spare him a chance to prove it to you, he wouldn’t fail you like he did the other time.Really?He didn’t fail me the other time. He dumped me because he felt he had all the choices in the world, and he could just mess with me and get away wit

    CIARAGetting home, the gate was opened by a new staff.He was clad in my company’s compound staff uniform, alerting me of the fact that my company must have fixed up some domestic staff for me, after being told by my PA that I was back from wherever I traveled to. Well, she already knows where I went to, but the problem is just that she can’t afford to say it to my face that I had returned from a rehab facility where aunt Elsie claimed I just returned from when she stuck her face to the camera and said her piece to end my career.The driver pulled into my compound, and stopped a few meters into my compound. Maybe he doesn’t want to be assured that the woman who boarded her car was the same woman he saw her pictures online.The one who was rumored to have been sick in the head.I didn’t wait for him to come open the door, for me, but before I could do that for myself and my son, the door got pulled open, and thus was my PA standing by the door with her head bowed low.I knew what the

    CIARAThe word pu**y made me scuff.No one had touched my pu**y for quite some time now, and Damien is right here, flattering me with promises of getting my pu**y sucked in the pools of Dubai.You could imagine this dude who can’t swim, going down on me in the pool. He would just drown in the pool, and get me into the trouble of being queried over what would be his shameful death.Imagine giving up the ghost while sucking pu**y in the pool. The pu**y would be accused of being acidic.I felt the urge to laugh, but I held it. I wasn’t ready to go intimate with him, but I was ready to use him against Ryan.I wanted to use him to avenge on Ryan for being wicked enough to accept his ex in my stead in those days. I just wonder how conquered Ryan would feel if he sees me and Damien going out on a date, or a dinner, in matching outfits.That would be such a blow, and I’m sure his soft heart would never be able to bear it. He would get sick over it, and he would cry out to his mother who tried

    CIARARyan, as the big asshole he had always been, had not bothered to visit us for as long as a week now, but I don’t care though.The only problem I had here was Herzl who had been pestering me about calling his father and asking him to drop by.I would never call Ryan with my phone, and by the way, I’m glad he learnt it the hard way, and kept himself away from me and my kid.I had had so much peace all the while he had not been coming by, because not seeing him made me heal as quick as was necessary.“Ma’am, the nanny you booked for is here.”I turned away from the mirror in my room where I was applying some make up, and faced my PA who was standing by the door.She doesn’t knock at the door before pushing it open to make her reports, because I once told her that there is no need bothering me with the business of knocking at my door like a stranger.“I would be with her in five minutes.” I said and spurned to the mirror.I heard the door go shut, and her footsteps announced her dep

    CIARAIt was now that the new nanny realized what I meant when I said that Herzl was a stubborn kid, and she should be able to contend with him.“Get my second car ready, let’s go get him.” I ordered my PA.She went off as soon as the order dropped from my lips. That’s the good thing about her. She knew how to run off and do whatever errand I sent her on with the speed of a mise. I turned to the new nanny.“Stay tuned, dear, the drama had just begun, but I believe you would never let him stress me this way once you get hired.”I ambled outside, and approached the second car.My driver had gone out with Herzl, and my PA had stuff to do with the new nanny, so, I had to do the driving myself.I knew nothing bad would happen to Herzl at his father’s place, but I feared that they would cart him out of the city if the need be, just to keep him away from me and close to them.They have what it takes to fly him out of the country, and take up a permanent residence in a country I would never

    CIARAHerzl didn’t refuse to get his ass into the car when I called on him to join me, maybe because he knew that one, he had gotten the driver into trouble by having him drive him to his father’s place, and two, I wasn’t happy he left the house without informing me.And three, I don’t give a damn what trick Ryan was putting up in that room. All I knew was this: I’m going home and nothing on earth would stand on my way, and by the way, I don’t want Ryan back in my life.I didn’t speak to the driver, because I was too angry to utter a word, neither did I speak to Herzl who I was ready to drag into the car if he dares put up any defense.Our ride home was smooth, because he wasn’t saying words to each other. I was sad that Ryan said those words, because those words brought back feelings that I dropped a long time ago.Those feelings were the pains that lies in the bruises of rejection and underrating. I felt tears well up in my eyes, but I blinked my eyes too many times to keep my eyes

    HERZL“Seems your mom would be going on a date tonight.”Those were the words of the driver, while we were on our way home. I knew why he said that. It was because of the man who mom stopped her car for at the roadside; the man who asked for help.Come on, he merely asked for help, but I saw senses in what he said when she came back and gave the damn strange face to us who got her annoyed at the first place, and thus came the gossip of her PA and the new nanny she got me.“Ma’am is going on a date tonight.” That was the PA’s voice, with a smile on her face. She was always on suit, and I guess she was beginning to look like a man, though she doesn’t seem to care about that.“How did you know she is going on a date? I thought she was mad at her son and the driver like you said.” The nanny posed. She was probably being careful with her words, maybe because she just got hired and shouldn’t be heard gossiping with a staff who is next to mom’s heart.“Yes, she was supposed to be angry, and

    CIARAI rolled my eyes and scoffed at his words; “You're still my legal wife!” He must be joking with me, right?I could still remember the very day he had offered me the divorce papers, settling all ties with me because of his so-called ex who returned to his life.“What do you mean by that?” I asked, my shooting eyes glared at him for any answers. Part of me still knows it's another a cooked story of lies, trying to get back with me and probably divorce me in front of the news caster or worst so.“You're still my lawfully wedded wife!” Ryan said, this time his hot breath fanning springs to my neck; I could feel the hot sensation of his breath on my face.“How, I don't believe so, you divorce me, right?” I asked.“Listen Ciara, I apologize for whatever happened in the past and all my bad doings toward you, but the divorce papers which we signed wasn't the original copy, so my lawyer couldn't stamp on it. Ryan added in a low and regrettable tone.I watched him lower his head in agony,

    "There she is..." Jamel whispered but audible enough to Alex's hearing, who only nodded with out a reply as he strode towards Ms. Carter. They both exchanged pleasantries before he had his seat opposite her."It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Carter." Alex said as he sat down. Ms. Carter looked at him with an inscrutable expression, her green eyes glittering."The pleasure is all mine, Mr. Alex." she replied, her voice smooth and calm. "I understand you're the CEO of The Williams cooperation. It's quite an impressive company, I've heard lots about it."Alex smiled slightly but it was enough to brighten the atmosphere. "Thank you, but I'm hardly the only one responsible for its success. I'm lucky to have a great team." He uttered, still maintaining his slight smile. "A great team, and a great leader." Ms. Carter vocalized with a few head nod. With out much further ado, she cleared her throat, deciding to go straight to the point. "I supposed you are yet to find a shareholder yet, or ha

    The long ride was slow and as well as a quiet one too. Alex sighed for the umpteenth times, unable to fathom the reason behind his sigh that seems not to be coming to an end — of course, he has many reasons for his continuous sigh, but he could not pinpoint which one of it was gnawing at him.Though his mind and thoughts seems to be in fuzzy, he managed to forced his focus on the wheels —he can't repeat the same mistakes twice and this time, he might not be lucky enough and might lose his life. Alex did not want that to happen to me once again, he dreaded the thought of it. He had almost seen death once —he won't face it this time.He's currently facing a lot but losing his life shouldn't be the thought on his mind. His mother —he had stressed her enough with his continuous and never seems to end escapades lately, should he add more to it? No, right? And his daughter too, what would happen to her if she's left behind? Times like this, Alex wished he could turn the hand of time and go

    When Lisa walked into her office, she was surprised to find that Judas was not there. On a normal day, Judas would be the first one to greet her upon her arrival. But today, he was nowhere to be found. Lisa was confused and concerned, so she decided to call him to find out what was going on.When she pulled out her phone, she quickly dialed Judas's number. The phone rang and rang, but there was no answer after two try. She had wanted to dial the number for the third time but shrug it off, and decided to keep her phone.Just when she was about to do as thought, the phone rang, vibrating softly in her grip. She checked the caller — it was Judas. With a deep frown settling on her face, she reluctantly picked the call. "Hey..." Judas hailed dryly from the other end. "Sorry, I screened your call. I was about parking when you called so I couldn't answer the phone." "Where are you?" Lisa questioned instead, ignoring his excuses. "I just entered my office and find it empty — you aren't her

    "I know what I'm saying is true, Lisa." Andy insisted, seeing the doubt in Lisa's eyes. "Since you left for Los Angeles and made me the acting chairman, my father has been pressuring me to take over the company." Andy went as far as explaining every little detail to Lisa not leaving one out of it. He went as far as telling her how Xavier left home since he refuse to dance to his tunes and even him going to apologize to his father thinking maybe he had change. Lisa was dumbfounded after listening to all what Andy had said, even though she had expected those cunning men not to back away easily. The one she mostly find hard to believe was Xavier cutting ties with his son over his petty greed but since it's coming out from Andy's mouth, she has no other choice than to believe it. "— I shouldn't be saying this, but I can't let them hurt you. I've watched you grown up and I see how kind and considerate you've been..." Andy muttered slowly in conclusion. "I won't possibly be at peace if I

    As Andy stood there, staring at his father, he knew that their relationship was irreparably broken. No matter what he said or did, he would never be able to repair the damage that had been done.The man standing in front of him was not the father he had once known and loved. He was a stranger, a man consumed by greed and ambition. He was lost to him forever.Slowly, he turned and began to walk away. He didn't look back, didn't say another word. He simply left, and never looked back.Andy couldn't help but wondered how his father had turned this way — at this stage, he's beyond repair and no matter the amount of words said could bring back his old self which seems to be lost forever.‘Am I really doing the right thing?’ He asked himself, giving his actions a second thought. ‘Leaving him and walking out of his life the moment he's alone and needed someone by his side, is it really okay to desert him like this?’He's not alone, he has his brother who are always supporting him, no matter

    "Whether it's sinful or not doesn't matter to me." Xavier cut his son off, matching his angry tone. "Did you think I wish to remain hidden while that bitch enjoy all the luxury to herself and her illegitimate kids?"Andy would have calmed down a bit but his father was only adding more fuel to his anger. "How dare you, father..." He uttered repulsively, trying to defend Lisa. "Why would you speak such ill words of her and her kids who had done nothing wrong against you?""Nothing wrong, eh?" Xavier muttered with a scoff. "Her existence alone has wronged me greatly. Now that I'm into it already, I won't back down until I see her got ruined completely."Andy shook his head sideways, the look of disgust that was on his his face deepen. "You aren't worth living with, Mr. Xavier. It's a good thing you left me on your own." He said with scoff. "I see why mom left you two decades, taking Stephanie along with her.""You..." Xavier yelled with anger written all over him, pointing his index fing

    Ever since Andy could remember, he has never been anxious as he is at the moment. He wasn't even sure of the best words to say to his father when he see him. It was at that moment it all dawned on him that he has not planned all of these well enough which made him let out a low but tiring sigh.The moment Andy stepped in and as though his father had been expecting him to come, Andy was welcomed by his father's blazing gaze — if only looks were capable of ending one's life, Andy was sure to have dropped death on spot."What is this ungrateful brat doing here?" Xavier's thundered in anger, his voice laced with hatred and he did not hesitate to give his son that same look as well —hatred, anger, frustration and fury! He turned towards his brother's direction. "Fred, why did you allow this boy in?""I think he has something to say to you." Fred muttered, though audibly to Xavier's hearing with a slight shoulder shrug, collapsing on the nearest couch. "Let's listen to what he has to say. H

    It was barely past noon when Andy had returned home from work that afternoon, he couldn't come back home the previous day because it was already late in the night when he finished from the theatre room so he took his rest at the hospital instead. Andy sat on his favorite couch with a heavy sigh of relief but his relief did not last more than a few moment, because his relief was swallowed with his gnawing feeling of emptiness. Everything seems empty to him — and he felt as though he's alone in the whole big world. He knew something was amiss somewhere and tried figuring it out. Alas! He figured out that it was the absence of his father. He had missed his father's presence in the house, his nagging and miss seeing his scowling face as well —all of these had made the past five years bearable for him but for the past one week, he has no one else to do all of these to him. Andy couldn't help but blamed himself for the emptiness he was feeling, he was the one who had sent his own biolog

    Once they were gone, Lisa let out a sigh of relief. She was glad to have a moment to herself, and she was looking forward to the peace and quiet. Although she couldn't help but feel a bit guilty about sending the kids away but she had things to discuss about with Judas.Judas moved closer and sat down on the seat opposite Lisa's desk. Lisa, as well, sat down in her usual position, her eyes fixed on the man before her. His facial expression says it all, of course he has a lot o say to Lisa and could not wait to be permitted so he could relay his words. "It seems you have something to say, Judas." Lisa finally voiced out after observing Judas for a while. She's not too blind not to have noticed —she knows Judas too well. "What have you come up with this time around?" "Uh, yeah." He nodded his head in agreement, adjusting slightly on his seat. "You can guess..." his voice was drawling and far from usual.Lisa raised her left brow slightly. "Beats me.
