When something is still on your mind, time seems to go very slowly.Avita’s anxiousness was driving her insane. And she’d lost track of how many times she’d checked her phone for the time.She completed all of her tasks, lost her appetite, and sat still in front of the television as if nothing was going through her mind.She knew she shouldn’t do it and should just be calm, but she couldn’t.She had been in this delirious condition for the entire day until she heard the gate bell ring.For the first time that day, she smiled as she opened the gate and waited for the automobile to drive inside.Madam G exited the car and took giant strides towards the door, which she slightly knocked on before entering.When she walked in, Avita was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, her gaze piercing.Madam G was ready to stoop down and greet her as usual, when a concerned Avita stopped her, saying, “don’t bother. Simply hand me the packet.”Madam G was caught aback by Avita’s discharge after a second
“Ohhh, can I really do that now?” an eager female inquired as she listened to the person on the other end of the phone conversation.“Well, that’s OK. My patience must have finally paid off. Don’t worry, I’ll see to it that she receives everything she deserves!” She spoke in a chilly tone, her eyes gleaming with anger.She listened for a bit before hanging up. Her face looked smug, and no one knew what she was thinking.‘Who do you think you are, Mel? For years, you tortured me and treated me like a dog. Is it true that just because your family has some money elevates you above everyone else?’Gelly was filled with rage as she thought this to herself.As someone who had known Mellissa for over a decade, no one could comprehend the agony she had to undergo every day. Gelly could only bear every torture without doing anything since she was afraid of retaliating against her family.Gelly didn’t come from a wealthy home; she was the type of youngster who needed sponsorship to finish her e
Vaquesha sat cross-legged in her Thandani home, contemplating life and how she should deal with the gloomy circumstance in front of her.She had been waiting for this day for years, and when it finally arrived, she felt like a joke, which upset her more than learning the truth.But now that the truth was in front of her, there was no turning back.She was like this for a reason, with the various identities she had used during her life, the countless sacrifices she had made, and all the horrific things she had done as a human being.Wasn’t all of this done so that she could learn the truth about the slaughter when she was eight years old?What irritated her the most about her current circumstance was the idea of her and Miguel being biologically connected. She wasn’t someone who actually cared about the world, because she didn’t believe selling drugs or prostitution to be wrong.Incest, on the other hand, was something she didn’t want to think about.Being engaged with a relative turne
Arnold froze as he saw the face he had been picturing in his head for years.‘It’s her, and I can’t bear missing her again. Never!’ he swore as he hurriedly made his way to this lady he didn’t want to miss.Every step he took, as a man with long legs, covered a large amount of ground, so it wasn’t long before he was standing directly in front of the girl who was still joking with her buddy without moving an inch.She raised her head and stared at the man she was destined to meet on this exact night, sensing his gaze on her.Nomsa grinned inwardly as she remembered what Madam G had told her to do before leaving for the club earlier that night.‘Oh my! What did Avita do to make this man look at me with such intensity? He can’t be in love, can he?’To be honest, she thought everything was a joke. As a girl and a woman who disliked rich men who thrive on exploiting women, rich or poor, Nomsa despised this individual.Without the introductions, she knew who he was, and his identification m
Vaquesha gazed in the mirror for the last time and was dissatisfied with herself.She was forced to become shorter and an entirely different person after returning to being Avita, which did not set well with her, especially after how tormented her weekend had been.She had to bear it, though, in order to have her retribution and move on to the next chapter as quickly as possible.‘I’ve done incredibly well for a long time. Why should I suffer during this brief one-week period?’She encouraged herself when her crimson eyes turned brown once more.If only people could see her actual self, wouldn’t life be truly wonderful?Unfortunately, she was cursed when she was young, and if she were to genuinely disclose her actual self in front of the public, she would be sentenced to death or condemned to be a witch.She wasn’t afraid of anyone, but she didn’t want to cause any problems. Causing havoc behind the scenes was already too much for her, and she intended to stay that way.‘Wait for me,
‘Despite my wealth, I couldn’t help but be envious when I initially arrived at this massive estate. How could I not be when everything appears to be in order and it is exactly what I am looking for in my life?’‘There were no loving parents to consider, and simply thinking about those two made me feel disgusting. I only regret that it wasn’t me who dealt them their ultimate blow, especially now that the truth has come to light.’‘I should have expected this when I started, and when I discovered the whole truth, I should have made a move, but unfortunately, I think this whole thing got into my brain.’‘Now that I’m here, I have to get things done. Let’s wreak havoc and give this family a massive gift. It’s none of my concern what they’ll think of me later.’Vaquesha sat on the sofa with a smile on her face, thinking to herself as the youngsters chatted.‘If Felicia wasn’t my mother, I and these kids would have been wonderful friends!’ she mourned, looking at the delighted expressions o
She couldn’t believe what she was seeing. Why was Avita behaving strangely all of a sudden?Vaquesha nodded indifferently at Lucilla, who had treated her like a true sister and friend despite their differences and said, “umm, I had enough of foster homes in my life. What I already have is sufficient.”“But_”“Girls, let’s put this depressing topic aside and get ready for dinner. Miguel and Arnold will be arriving shortly,” Felicia interrupted the talk short because continuing to listen to it made her feel miserable as well.She had no idea why Avita was acting this way, but one thing was certain: talking to Avita about taking her as a goddaughter would have to wait.She also has pride, and she was not going to allow herself to be rejected.“Hehe, it’s almost time. I’m starving!” Lucilla added, shattering the uneasy atmosphere.Vaquesha forced a tiny grin on her lips without saying anything else.Avita had ruined the beautiful atmosphere, but they couldn’t blame her; after all, curiosi
“Slurp, slurp,” the only sound that filled the dining room thirty minutes later, after Arnold and Miguel finally joined the rest, was the sound of eating.But not everyone was in the mood to eat at the time.Arnold couldn’t help but notice Avita, who seemed to be in her own world, eating as if she were the only person in the room.‘Am I hallucinating? This one look just like her, yet she’s not the same as the girl I saw last weekend. What exactly is happening here?’To be honest, he was perplexed. He didn’t know or understand what was going on right now, but he knew one thing for certain: he needed to know, and the only way to do so was to have a brief conversation with her.Felicia was boiling with rage inside as she ate while Arnold was doubting life. However, she recognized the seriousness of acting out and being discovered, so she did her best to keep her rage within and pretend that everything was OK.Felicia had gone upstairs with Miguel just five and a half minutes after he arr
