"I can't believe you agreed for us to come over here with Charles," Albert said to Chris.

The two had accompanied their friend to his office. They were seated in the guest waiting area.

"What has come over you? For some time now you have been cold towards Charles. What is going on?" Chris asked.

"I do agree that he got it all wrong with how he handled his issue with Tracy, but listen, dude has apologized and registered his remorse," Chris said.

"And what do you have to say about his wish to have her back? He has messed up someone's daughter's life and he would still not let her be," Albert fumed.

"I am not a lady and neither am I Tracy to know what exactly she felt or going through right now, but the truth is I feel that lady's pain," Albert added as he was beginning to raise his voice.

"Listen up, your attitude is starting to get suspicious. The dude has apologized and all we can do is talk him out of his move to pursue Tracy once again. And not to act this offensive towards him as

    A week passed and the ambience in Purple City was rather calm and sober.People went about their businesses as usual as a few luxurious cars drove on the principal streets of the city.Some school-going kids were seen in the mix, walking and running to the cars of their parents after school.Miss Brooks had been through hell the past weeks, but from the looks of things, her fans and the general public seemed to have forgiven her as the statistics for her show had skyrocketed."I don't know how you did it, but I dare say that you are a true genius. No wonder our competitors want to slander us by using your Ex-husband as a ploy to take us down," Cyril had said to Tracy a few days after she shared her story with the world on her show."From the statistics we have accumulated so far, the figures for your show have shot up in terms of watch rate. People seem to love your show even better now," he added.Back in the present, however, the host of Ties That Bind seemed to be feeling a little

    In all honesty, I was mad at you for spilling coffee all over me. You probably should have thanked my friends because It was as a result of their intervention that I didn't say a word to you," Tracy said."Right. I believe it would have been logical and justified that you decided to vent your anger on me for drenching you in coffee," the male voice of the man who spilt coffee on Tracy said."My action was in bad taste and anyone would have reacted in a manner they deem fit if I had done that to them. So I understand your sentiments. But I'm glad you agreed to sit and have a chit-chat with me despite everything. Although I would have preferred for your friends to hang around instead of leaving," he added."Well, I also wish they had stayed behind, but I will catch up with them later," Tracy said."But next time, you should be careful," she added."I have heard your wise counsel Miss. I will be more vigilant next time," he said."But if I may ask, what is a beautiful lady like you calle

    "Good day, Tracy. I trust you're doing well," Cyril said after he entered Tracy's office."Certainly. I trust you are too," she responded and asked him too."Sure bet I am. Well, not quite," Cyril said."I don't like the sound of that. Is everything okay?" Tracy asked in a concerned tone.Cyril was mildly rubbing his right cheek while he kept his head down."Tracy," Louisa said and walked in. "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know you had company," she added."That's fine. What's the problem?" Tracy queried."Well, Fashion Life will go live in a few minutes. I want to go make some changes to their set but I want June to come help me so I thought to inquire if you will need her," Louisa said."Oh come on Louisa. This is nothing to have come all the way here to inform me. You could have just gone ahead with her. But it's all good. You can have her assist you," Tracy said.Louisa realized all the while that Cyril did not say a word and noticed an unusual look on his face."Right. But is everythin

    The weekend was here and the general vibe in Purple City seemed to suggest that people were taking it easy after a hard day's work during the week.But within the four walls of Tracy's house was an inferno that was intensifying by the second.Tracy had invited Louisa over to question her behavior in recent times."How could you, Louisa? How dare you give my number out to a stranger without first consulting me?" Tracy fumed.She paced about in the living room while Louisa sat on the couch with her arms folded."I told you point blank that that guy was nothing to me. Yes, he spilled coffee on me and apologized. Apology accepted, we move on. But why then do you give him my number?" She asked in an angry tone."Come on Tracy. I admit that I deserve all the harsh words and coldness you are showing right now, but you and I know that you could really use some distraction from that guy," Louisa finally said."Oh nonsense. Arrant nonsense!" Tracy yelled as the doorbell rang."Who is it?" Trac

    Another day passed and Henry was still thinking about Tracy.Having finished his session at the hospital, he thought to distract himself and take a walk around the hospital.As he moved about, he saw patients being brought in by the ambulance and others who were reporting to the hospital themselves to seek medical care.A lady of Tracy's height walked into the hospital with her kids. Immediately Henry saw her, his mind went to Tracy. "I find it unusual that she would be behaving like this towards me. Was it something I did or said that got her like that?" He asked in his head.Just as he tried to juggle different thoughts in his head, his phone rang."Hello," he responded."Hello, Henry. Are you done for the day?" A male voice asked."Yeah Andy, but I'm hanging around for a while to sort out a few things before I finally go home," Henry responded.Andy, a good friend of his who had been his friend since childhood had called to check on him."Well, there is a party tonight and I was w

    "Congratulations, we saw all those good moments the other night. He is cute," a neighbor who was passing by Tracy's house said.Her comments came on the back of Henry's sweet serenading moments with Tracy.This neighbor saw it all. And although she had not said a word to Tracy before despite being neighbors, and knowing who she was as a popular TV host, Henry's display some nights ago was so epic that the neighbor could not help but say something nice to the TV host."Thank you very much," Tracy responded swiftly to the passersby.Brooks had June and Louisa in her company and they were just returning from the boutique."And what is she talking about?" June asked. She was confused as to what the passerby was talking about."Isn't it obvious? It's about Henry serenading Tracy the other day," Louisa responded.The ladies made their way to the door of the house and entered."Wow, if that neighbor saw it then I can imagine who else saw it.

    A week passed and another weekend arrived.Tracy had been all about work after her beautiful date night out with Henry some days ago.She had been in touch with Henry and the two had been keeping up with each other.After a long day's work at the office during the week, Tracy thought a day out to the beach was a good idea.So when Henry initiated such a move, she didn't hesitate to give him the green light."I can see someone is in love," Louisa jokingly said."Oh just stop it already. Who's in love?" Tracy asked.She and her ladies were on the rooftop chatting and having some good vibes."You of course. If not, why would you agree to go to the beach with him?" June cut in."Come on girls. I'm not in love, and the fact that I've agreed to go spend some quality time with him at the beach does not make your claim significant either," Tracy said."I'm only being nice by trying to appreciate his efforts. Besides, you ladies can attest to how great he had treated me in the past couple of d

    Two weeks passed and Tracy was a little sober due to the information she got from her lawyer.Her lawyer had advised that she get Mr Parker arrested first, before arraigning him for court and eventually getting him behind bars.Tracy had received assurance from her lawyer that the evidence was enough to win the court case and punish Mr Parker.On a sunny day when the sun was making some people wear extra layers of sunscreen just to prevent the rays of the sun from having direct contact with their skin, Tracy didn't seem to care much.She only had a cap on and in her company were two police officers, Jason and Uriel.Mr Edward Parker was seated on the couch, while Jean sat in another filing her nails."Tracy, what a pleasant surprise," Eddy said the moment he saw Tracy who entered with a laptop in her left armpit and a photo portrait in her right hand."I wish, what brought me here is as pleasant as you claim my visit," Tracy said."Tracy, language," Uriel said. "What uncle? Let me spe

    "June, is everything okay? For the past two days you have been indoors without saying a word to anyone," Jean said immediately as she entered her sister's room.June sat in one corner of her bedroom, her hair was begging for the feel of a comb. As tears rolled down her soft cheeks."June, will you say something already? Your silence is killing me," Jean said. But her sister would still not utter a word."Anyway, I went to visit Mother yesterday and she asked to see you," she informed her sister.Jean realized her sister would not say anything but cry. So she left her side.Three minutes later, Jean entered with her Dad and said, "Father, June has been like this for hours. She won't say anything to me,"Eddy moved towards June and just as he was about to grab her shoulder, she said, "Don't you dare touch me,""June! What has come over you? Why do you talk to your father like that?" She queried her sister.Eddy's eyes were wide open as waves of shock went down his body. If anyone woul

    "Good day, Tracy," the lawyer greeted and entered Tracy's house. She walked her in and offered her a seat. Tracy dashed off to the kitchen to get some drinks for her lawyer when she heard the doorbell ring. "Don't worry, I got it," Uriel said and walked to the door to check who had knocked."Who is it?" Tracy asked at the top of her voice while she was in the kitchen.But there was no response from her uncle.Tracy walked back into the living room with a Tray supporting an apple juice and a glass.Slowly, she lowered the drink onto the coffee table next to the lawyer while she kept her eyes on the guest who had been walked in by her uncle."Careful with that," Uriel said when he realized his niece almost dropped the Tray on the floor."Right," she responded and shifted her attention to the drink for a second and then back to the guest."It's you! Where have you been and how did you know where I live?" Tracy queried.The guest was none other than Jason."I'm so sorry Lawyer," Tracy a

    "Tracy, what's going on?" June called me saying something that I could not quite understand. "What's the matter?" Louisa asked."Cyril tells me you have not been to the office in days now. Is everything okay?" She asked.Tracy stood on the edge of the couch, with her legs on the seat on the chair as she watched Louisa talk."Tracy, won't you say anything?" She asked after her friend refused to say a word, ""Uncle, you are here. Good day sir," Louisa greeted the second she saw Uriel."Good day, my daughter. How have you been and most importantly, how's your baby girl doing?" He asked."I'm doing well uncle and Tracy is also doing quite well. I would have brought her here but Mrs Briggs advised she's too young to be taken out," she responded."That's fine. I'm sure eventually we would get to see her," he added."Uncle," she called the attention of Uriel. "Yes, my child," he responded swiftly."Why is Tracy like this? Why won't she say anything to me?" She asked.Tracy's phone lying on

    "What the hell are you doing here?" Tracy asked June immediately as she walked in."Errm, what's that supposed to mean? What's going on?" She asked."What is that supposed to mean? This is my house and I don't want you here. So just get out," Tracy screamed. The noise from the living room drew Uriel's attention and he rushed down to the hall."What's going on here?" He asked. "Oh, uncle, you are here," June said."I just got here and Tracy would not let me even sit. She just asked me to leave without provocation," June explained.Uriel got the drift and understood why his niece was asking June to leave. He walked to Tracy and held her by the shoulder and said, "Child, you don't need to vent your anger on her. She has done nothing wrong,""I just don't care uncle," Tracy said and removed her uncle's hand from her shoulder."I don't want her here and that is final," she added and turned away.While she looked away, the doorbell rang and it was Henry."Good day uncle," he greeted.

    "You mean Jason has been sending you anonymous letters? Why didn't you say anything to me?" Uriel asked Tracy."Well, I didn't know who he was until you just disclosed his name. And I didn't think anything serious of the letters till he made some revelations to me," Tracy said.Uriel, who was seated on a chair, got up and walked slowly towards Tracy and asked, "What revelations?" Tracy, feeling broken and hurt, paused for a second to allow the tears to roll down her face."My child, you have barely said anything. Why are you crying? What did Jason say to you?" He asked."Come on darling. I'm your uncle, you can talk to me," he insisted after his niece went mute suddenly."Tracy, would you talk to me? What is the problem?" He asked again after noticing the sobbing of Tracy had intensified.He reached for a tissue on the center table and slowly he started to wipe her tears."Jason told me some things that are still shaking my world," she finally broke her silence hesitantly."He did?

    "Father, it's been days since our mother was taken away and you've not made any effort to go and see her," Jean said immediately as she walked in on her father in the living room."I thought you loved her? So what changed so suddenly that you seem not to care about her again?" She asked.Eddy got up from his chair, looked at the face of his daughter and then paced up and down without saying a word."Father, I thought you were going to say something?" She asked again."And what is there to say? I'd be lying to myself if I told you that I'm even thinking straight," Eddy responded swiftly."First, my sister does the unthinkable and now she is behind bars. Then my wife. Not forgetting the mess at the Parker company as we speak, and you dare ask about your mother?" He asked"Where do I even start from? I've lost everything," he said as water formed in his eyes."You can start anywhere, father. Make some calls, and talk to some of your influential people. I don't know but just do something.

    A week passed.Tracy paced up and down the living room.Her nanny had gone to be with Louisa while June was with her family.Brooks was all alone contemplating whether or not to go and meet the anonymous fellow who had been sending her letters.The previous night, Tracy received yet another letter from this unknown person instructing her to meet up in a secluded environment."Why would this person want to meet me in the woods? As if his identity was not mysterious enough, this fellow wants me to meet up in the forest. Why the forest of all places?" She said out loud since she was the only person at home."What if the person is evil? Or has some devilish motive? Why on earth should a meet-up in the woods be appropriate and not anywhere open here in the city?" Tracy struggled with mind-boggling questions as she kept moving up and down the room."But what If the person is real and has genuine intentions? I guess my mind is playing tricks on me," she said."Well, I can never be too care
