I had twins and Nathan was the happiest the day I had them. He bought a place for me in town to set up my restaurant. Mr. White and Mrs. White have given their businesses to Nathan and they spend most of their time traveling the world, they just got back from Jamaica two days ago. My best friend Amanda has moved to Paris and now has her own fashion brand. She brings Claire every now and then to see the twins. Turns out that the day Michael and Nathan visited me in Paris. Amanda and Michael clicked. They made it official at our wedding as Michael was the best man and Amanda was the best lady. We were shocked but happy, that was the best wedding present. Our wedding had been the talk of the town with celebrities in attendance. I had underestimated the white's wealth and affluence. I attende
Olivia "Hello Mabel" I waved at my old neighbor as I walked out of my house adjusting my purse. I know Amanda will be able to babysit Claire for a little while cos I was running late for my afternoon shift at the cafe. "Wait!" I heard Claire shout behind me as I turned to see her running down the stairs of my apartment in the blue dress Amanda made for her. She still has a year to spend in fashion school but she comes to visit every chance she gets. "I did not kiss you goodbye," She said as she stood on the tip of her toes and kissed my cheek I bent over for her to do so as I patted her head gently. "Now you can go" She replied waving me and going back into the house. I got into my car as I thought of Nathan. I haven't spoken to him in six months and I am trying so hard to deny it but I am not happy. I have questioned myself countless times if I was turning into my mother, she also ran away. Not just that, I was just finally living the life that I dreamed of and
Nathan It's been 6 months since Olivia left and I have been miserable. At first, I thought she was missing again until Leah told me the truth about her wanting to leave and pursue her dreams. How could she do that to me? She didn't care about my feelings. She took Claire with her and I'm afraid they might not come back again. "Sir... This is the document for the last ..." My secretary said trying her best to sound professional. "Just leave it there," I said pointing at one corner of my desk and adjusting my tie. "Okay Sir," My secretary said reluctantly, she still had something to say but I was not ready to talk to anyone right now. She turned and walked out of my office, her heel clicking loudly on the tiled floor. "Hey..." I hear a familiar voice. The door of my office swung open. It's Micheal, I thought rolling my eyes. "Any news?" Michael said walking towards me and sitting on my desk. He was talking about Olivia. "No" I replied not looking his way. He sigh
Olivia I sat in silence looking out the window at nothing in particular. Nathan was sitting beside me with my hands in his, He has not left my side since I woke up in the hospital and had the uncomfortable conversation with Mr. White, or is it, Dad? I can't still get over the fact that Mr. White was my father. The car stopped in front of the mansion and for a minute I dreaded going into the house not knowing what to face or how to act towards Mr White. For God's sake, my life has turned around within two months and I don't even have a say in it. "Olivia," I heard Nathan say and I snapped my head up to see the car door open and Nathan is standing there with a worried expression on his face. I stepped out forcing a smile at him and failing miserably. He just sighed and took my hand helping me out of the car. The house was quiet as a maid walked by, she greeted Nathan and me giving me a look like she pitied me making me wonder if everyone in the house knew my story. "You haven't sa
Nathan For how long will all of this continue? My mum is a complete mess at home, I found out that I was not my father's son, and Olivia is unconscious and lying on a hospital bed looking pale. I didn't know what my father said to her. The doctor has asked us not to worry, she just needs to rest and will be discharged tomorrow morning. I see my dad in the distance, his head on the wall and his hands in a tight fist. I wonder how he was feeling, I still need to ask about what he said to my girl I thought. The hospital is busy today as doctors and nurses walk past me. My dad entered the men's room and this was the chance I had to have a word with him. I joined him in the rest room and I saw him splashing a reasonable amount of water on his face, He didn't even notice me standing behind me. "Dad... What the fuck did you tell her"? I shouted walking over to him as he turned back to look at me in shock before sadness clouded his face. He had been ignoring me and the su
Olivia I ran after Mr White who punched the wall repeatedly as he walked down the stairs angrily muttering words under his breath. I followed him quietly not knowing what to say or how to comfort a man that just found out that his only child isn't his but his best friend's. He went to his bar and took a bottle of whiskey and a glass cup. He stood for a whole minute looking at the bottle then suddenly smashed the glass cup on the floor. I gasped in fear moving back. He opened the bottle and gulped forcefully. I wondered if he hadn't noticed me or if he was probably ignoring me. He loosened his tie and then headed out the back door towards the garden. He sat down on a bench drinking from the whiskey bottle before screaming and hitting his chest repeatedly. I ran over to him kneeling in front of him and holding his clenched fist in an attempt to calm him. "It's okay Mr White, Everything is going to be fine," I said looking up at him smiling and patting his hand gently. "How could
Nathan It's been two weeks since Olivia's Mother died. Olivia cried for days and I felt bad for her, her mother was all she had. Her mother left her a note that Olivia had refused to open and a golden necklace that had a heart pendant on it. I had seen the necklace on her mother's neck a couple of times and I'm guessing her mother wanted her to have it, It must be very special to her. Olivia's hand is always on that necklace as if it connects her to her dead mother. I loved her and wanted her to be happy so seeing her locked up in her room hurts. Leah had been supportive, she had tried to cheer her up. Olivia seemed a bit lively today, so I took the opportunity to take her out. The place was her favorite bakery in the middle of the city. We had our snacks and it was time to go home. She held on to me as we walked out of the busy bakery. We kissed and I opened the car door for her as I hopped on the driver's side. We didn't say a word to each other till we got to the man
Olivia "Put that down," I said to Claire who was playing with a butter knife on the counter. She was just so bent on injuring herself. It's been a week now and I am as good as new except for my aching arm and a few terrible nightmares. I can say I am back to normal. I have visited my mum twice this week and I spent the whole day convincing her that I had a mini accident. It scares me a little, the fact that she didn't look like she was getting any better but the doctor assured me that she would be fine. "A candy for your thoughts" I suddenly hear Claire say behind me and I place my uninjured hand on my chest. She startled me. It took me seconds to process what she said and I burst into laughter when I saw her holding out a candy as she stood in front of me smiling. "Okay then, I was thinking about how beautiful you look in this yellow dress, I am so jealous," I said pouting as I popped the candy into my mouth. "Hello ladies" I heard Nathan's voice before I s
Leah “No, She's safe now, Claire is at home,” I said to Amanda as I walked to the window looking out. “No Amanda, you don't have to come” I replied after she volunteered to catch the next flight to come to see how Olivia is doing. I called her when Olivia went missing, I thought she was tired of everything and wanted a break from life and decided to take a vacation or something without telling anybody but I guess I was wrong, She will not run away from everything after her mum just went through a major surgery. she is such a strong woman. I looked over at Liv to see her breathing slowly and bandage all over her body as the nurse checked the drip and adjusted her covers gently. I held back tears as I closed my eyes and open it again. She doesn't deserve this. “Are you there? Does Mia know about this?” Amanda asked snapping me out of my thoughts. “Mia does not know everything and I would like to keep it that way” I replied running my hands over my hair. “Can we talk later?” I sai
Olivia's pov I adjusted my brown purse and walked into the massive hotel and the doorman grinned at me. "Good morning Milady," Brandon said bowing slightly. "Stop it Brandon" I replied laughing, He does this every morning. "Have a nice day Olivia!" He replied pushing the glass doors open as I waved at him. I have never been late for work but today I was extremely early and I have a mission which is to see Noah the manager and I pray it doesn't cost me my job. "Morning Debby" I greeted the receptionist with heavy makeup, She was looking at a round mirror adjusting her eyeliner. She looked up at me for a second then went back to what she was doing ignoring me, No wonder nobody likes her I thought scoffing in annoyance. I went straight to Noah's office not stopping at the employee's room to change. I stood at the front of the massive door made of wood that has the manager written on it in gold letters, I huffed as I knocked twice and paused my heart b...
