I started hearing some faint voices. I didn't know where I was but the voice was surely more than one.Wait, don't tell me I'm already in heaven or on my path to heaven. I once heard Father Abraham preaching about heaven and talking about angels. Am I already there? Do the voices I'm hearing belong to the angles? I thought but my skepticism was verified awry when I heard what seemed like Laura's voice."Can you check her pulse? How is she fairing" she asked with a trembling voice" Her voice is low, Laura" another voice that sounded like Ryan's voice was heard"Let's rush her to the Infirmary" Laura screamed"I don't think she can make it to the Infirmary" Ryan uttered calmly"What? Oh no! Nothing must happen to her" Laura cried out"Stop crying, dummy! I think I have an idea" Ryan addedI felt a breath close to my face and Laura's voice came again"What are you planning to do? Do you wanna kiss her? How dare you take advantage of her, in this situation?" Laura yelled"Shit! Can't you
Today is the first day Ryan and I are gonna begin the extra lesson class in trial for the forthcoming inter-school competition. Also, it's two days until the sports competition but unfortunately, I'm not gonna partake with them, thanks to the silly Ryan. I got to know Elena has been transferred to another neighboring school after facing disciplinary action for what transpired between her and Ryan when I visited the Infirmary. Mr. Andrew was the tutor that the school assigned to us. I was conversing with Laura which made me lose time after school hours before rushing to Ryan's study. Yes! The extra lesson would take place in his study. I tried to protest when the vice principal informed me that Ryan cannot come to the ordinary class as he said.I rushed to his private study while holding a nose cover in hand. I was about to enter when I used the nose mask to cover my nose and mouth. Care to know why I did that? It was because Ryan complained about my mouth. Despite asking Laura who c
"What's going on here?" The vice principal asked as he entered the study room. My eyes widened and wanted to pop out of my face. I was startled and couldn't find a suitable word to utter. I became nervous when I noticed his gaze on me."Love in Tokyo" he mocked and I quickly jerked from Ryan's lap. There was only one thing that came to my mind at that moment, the ground should just open and swallow me."It's not what you are thinking sir" I finally managed to mutter when I found my voice."She mistakenly slipped and landed on Ryan's lap when responding to a question. She is innocent sir" Me Andrew lied smoothly to defend me. "Oh really?" The vice principal asked again"Yes sir," Mr. Andrew and I said at the same time."I thought as much because I've heard of her innocence" the vice principal retorted"Just wanna check on you guys and see how the class is going" he added"It's going well sir" Mr. Andrew replied" absolutely Well," I added. He nodded his head in satisfaction before vac
Ryan was looking at me, smiling devilishly. I tried to know what was going on in his mind by skimming through his face but I wasn't successful. But where did he park his car? I didn't see it outside and he didn't come to school with an escort today, I asked myself"Kiara! What took you so long inside?" Mum asked"Isn't it evident? She was outfitted to look more appealing to her boyfriend" Royce cut inShit! I wouldn't have used the powder if I knew he was here, talkless of using the ribbon.Dude didn't mutter anything but he smirked before going back to the kitchen. Now, I know the reason our shop was filled with high school customers was that a handsome dude was in the shop.I became disturbed by his attitude and one concern kept going through my mind.Why is he here and what's his hidden agenda? "Kiara!" Mum yelled from the kitchen and I had no other choice than to halt my reflections and start attending to buyers.★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★It was seven in the evening. The buyers have evac
I hurried to where Liam was and promptly assisted him up. "Are you okay?" I asked worriedly before I glimpsed some bruises on his elbow."Fuck! You are bleeding!" I wailed. He scanned his elbow and sneered."I'm sorry mister, I didn't know how I lost control" the bicycle boy admitted guilt"Hey! Are you blind? Can't you just face where you were going? Must you strike someone with your goddamn bicycle?" I ranted. For no reason, seeing Ryan having bruises vexes me. "You don't need to blame him, he is just a boy" Ryan replied"Oh really? A boy that lacks…" Ryan didn't allow me to finish the statement before he scrape me off"It's okay boy, you can go," Ryan instructed the boy, who bowed for him slightly before vacating the place."Jeez! You should have authorized me to deal with him" I Muttered sadly"It wasn't willful Kiara, it was just a mistake" he retortedI snatched his hand and inspected the bruises again."Do you mind going back home with me to clean your wound? Mom would be ple
To say I was awestruck was an understatement. Ryan couldn't help but whirl his gazes in terror. Laura was still looking outraged about the injury when Ryan cleared his throat to get her attention."Didn't know you care so much about my body, I would have been more careful" he teased while James scoffedLaura was helpless, I could read through her that she was trying to find something to say to cover-up but couldn't find"Who says she cares about you? Normally, she is shocked like other students. Whereas, babe and I are not like the dumbasses that would be happy to see others getting hurt" I manipulated smoothly"Moreso, what are you guys doing here? The last time I checked, you wouldn't like to seat opposites us" I added"Who told you we wanna sit opposite you? It's because there is no other seat available" James retorted and a loud bang was heard inside my brain. Laura and I stared at each other before we both gaped around the cafeteria and realized the vacant seats are even more tha
Looking at the pictures signified that someone has been tailing him. I was dumbfounded and wouldn't stop glaring at the picture." What the hell! Who took this picture?" I asked him, hoping he knew and would tell me. But the question is, would I go and fight the person if I know him? Funny you, Kiara. My mind utteredHe was looking at me and didn't mutter anything before his phone rang again."How much does he want?" He asked with anger, tightly his fist at the same time. I tried to overhear his conversation with the other party but I only heard his part of the conversation."What?" He exclaimed"That's fucking much! I would kill him if I lay my hands on him. Track him and text me his location" he added, sounding like a mafia boss. I had no idea what the person said as a reply "What the fuck! Schedule a meeting with him and let me know the outcome. Also, on no condition must the pictures get out or I'll kill both of you!" He threatened before disconnecting the call."What's going on
I couldn't stop giggling as I left the study room. For the first time, I heard Ryan apologizing, wow! Incredible! I didn't know when I screeched that out. Guess he isn't a complete jerk, I thought."Were you offered money?" I heard Laura's voice and I was brought back from my thoughts. I saw her standing in front of me, traversing her hands under her armpits."Oh no, who would give me money!" I retorted with some smirking"Then why are you screaming?" She furthered asked"Screaming? Me? When?" I asked, pretending not to know what she was talking about"Babe, I heard you shouting incredible!" She muttered with slight anger"Oh, that was nothing. I just remembered mom promised me something mouthwatering as dinner" I fabricated smoothy"Jeez! Can't believe you are happy just because of food. I thought something happened in the study room" she scoffed"What would have happened there? It's all because of the food, you know how much I like food" I mumbled"Good for you anyways, are you don
*Eighteen years later*A lot of things have happened over the past eighteen years. After Liam's wedding, the ladies stood in the queue, waiting for her to throw her bouquet. She demonstrated the throwing two times but she didn't throw it.People were anticipating who the next bride would be but surprisingly, she started walking towards us."Babe, today wouldn't have happened if not for you. I remembered fighting you when we first met. It was fun to have a supporting friend like you and to say I was amazed when you told me to go ahead with the wedding plans despite that you have engaged and we all thought you would get married first. Here is the bouquet, it's yours and please, be fast with it" She handed the bouquet to me."Wow!""I like this!""Awwnnnnn""This is amazing" and lots more were the compliments we received from the guests."How I wish I also had a friend like Kiara," Pearl mumbled, which made all of us laugh.The couple walked to where the car was parked. They were leaving
To say I was shunned to see the first lady kneeling in front of me was an understatement, which also made me feel embarrassed."Stand up please, you are embarrassing me" I cautioned"I'm deeply sorry for what happened in the past. I'm not apologizing because I'm in this position but because I am remorseful. If I didn't try to separate Liam from Maya in the beginning, they would have been living happily with Diamond, likewise you and Ryan. I am a selfish mother who only thought about herself" she sobbed"Forgive me, Kiara. I've done more harm than good but yet, your love conquers all and still brings Maya back to Liam. My apologies to your mother and brother too. I've told my lawyer to will my properties for you and Maya, he will come to visit you anytime from now on, make sure you acknowledge it" she added"Oh no! You don't have to do that. I've forgiven you before you think of apologizing, so you don't need to will your properties for us" I declined immediatelyShe smirked before she
"Doctor, my son is too young to go through all the pain. Is there any other alternative?" I begged"Miss Smith, the only solution is surgery but don't worry, the professional will handle it and we can assure you that the success rate is high. The only problem is how we are going to get a heart donor. A heart donor is always someone ready to die and it's very rare to get. Moreso, we have two days to get the donor, that's our concern right now" he explainedI fell on my butt, finding it difficult to think straight."Does that mean I'm gonna lose my son if we aren't able to get a donor? Who would wanna die for my son to live?" I Muttered★★★★★★★★★★★★★The whole family was glimpsing at Leonard, through the transparent glass, including Ryan who was looking pitiful at his son.Lots of tubes were connected to his body and a long tube passed through his lung from his mouth, which made his mouth wide open.The hospital had to add his name on the list for a heart transplant and there was no ass
Forty-five minutes passed without any hope of getting out of there. Assuming my hands were free, I would have carried my son and ran out of the building.The boy was still sleeping which made me wonder if all was well with him but the escape took the majority of my thought.After a few seconds, I began to hear footsteps like some people were coming inside the room.I was at first scared because I thought they were sent to finish the job that Laura had started but on second thought, I was glad that they were coming to save us. Why? Because Laura wouldn't send people after she has already finished what she started.Suddenly, the footsteps halted, not moving again. My happiness turned into sadness immediately."Kiara! Kiara!!Kiara!!!" I heard the voices, echoing into the entire building."I'm here!" I gathered the remaining strength and screamed."Where?" One of the voices questioned againI looked around to check what to use to describe the room entrance but I recalled not getting glare
"Who the heck did this?" Ryan took the phone from me, staring at Leonard who was sleeping like nothing happened.The cops moved closer to us and took the phone, in an attempt to track the number. I was standing in Akimbo, likewise waiting for the number to be tracked and to get to the location where the person was hiding.One of the reporters came inside to ask for the update, which the cops replied to and he went back outside to update others.I was too weak to cry and the energy in me had been exhausted. If not for the motherhood Spirit in me, I would have given up, though I was rest assured that my son is doing fine, with the picture that was sent to me.After trying for one hour, the number couldn't be tracked. According to the head cop, the number was unregistered and it seemed to be a special number.A call was put across the telecommunication company, asking for the details of the person that has the number but all effort proved to be abortive.The phone beeped again after thir
No, no, no! It cannot be. Kimberly must be mistaken, how would she tell me that my son is missing? What the heck is she trying to say? Ryan and I hurriedly wore our clothes and we rushed to check out of the hotel.He began to drive at a very high speed. At one point, I forgot about Leonard and started thinking about my Life."Ryan" I screamed when I watched him overtake a big truck."Sit properly angel, we need to get home as fast as possible" he replied, overtaking another bus."Ryan, please, you need to drive slowly. Take things easy please, we need to get home in a good state" I pleaded but it fell on deaf ears."Call Liam now and inform him about what happened" he Instructed.I picked up my phone, amidst his reckless driving to dial Liam's number."Hello" he picked up the call instantly"Oh, my God! Ryan!!!" I shouted when I was a truck moving towards us. I thought I was going to die but Ryan was fast enough to divert the car to the other side."Kiara, what happened? Are you ther
I wasn't in the right state to drive a car. I rushed to the hallway, trying to stop a taxi. It took me a lot of time before I was able to find one."Hilton Hotel" I informed the taxi driver, who started driving almost immediately."Faster please" I instructed him"Hope all is okay ma'am?" The old man questioned"Will you keep your mouth shut and continue driving?" I fired angrily at him.After what seemed like forever, he parked in front of the hotel. I was about to go inside when I heard Liam's voice from behind."Kiara!" He called"Stop running please, people are watching you" he warned and that was when I noticed people's gazes were fixed on me. I managed to fake a smile, though it was hard."Let's go" he added, leading the way into the reception.I was watching Liam talking to the receptionist. Both were smiling like I wasn't there. I didn't have any interest in their conversation but they should be fast."Thank you" I heard Liam saying to the young lady."What took you for so lo
The gun fell from my hand, making me gasp at the view in front of me."Ryan!" I called gently as it was still looking like a dream to me."Ryan!" I cried out this time around. I looked beside me and couldn't find David again, he ran outside.I bent down to Ryan, who was lying helplessly on the floor. I began to shake him rigorously, finding it difficult to believe that I'd shot my lover."Ryan, please don't do this to me. I'm very sorry babe, it wouldn't happen again" I cried"Open your eyes please, what do you want me to tell Leonard? That I killed his father? Open your eyes before I'll shoot myself" I added, crying louder.To my awe, I heard him cough."Ryan, Ryan, can you hear me? Ryan" I slapped his cheeks with my two hands at the same time."Stop it!" He yelled but was very weak. Slowly, he began to open his eyes."What happened? What am I doing on the floor? Whose blood is this?" He questioned.I couldn't be happier to see that he was Alive. I ran a quick check on his body and n
"Noooo! You can't do this to me David please" I begged for mercy after he tore my gown. I knew no one to tell me that I'm doomed. Different thoughts were going through my mind."Who is going to rescue me? Why did I lie to Ryan about coming here? Have I known David has turned into a beast, I wouldn't have come right?"I tried to gain freedom but my energy was no match to his own.Shortly after, he finally tore down the gown, leaving me with pants and a bra."David, this is not going to make me love you. It's gonna let me hate you forever! I know you are doing this because of obsession but don't rape me please" I begged and was trembling at the same time."I don't fucking care! Isn't that the reason you went back to him after so many disappointments from his family? Oh, you thought I didn't know? I heard he fuck well and you can't get enough of his dick but I'll prove you wrong! I'll let you know that I fuck better than him! I'll fuck you till you are not moving again! You wouldn't have
