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
For the very first time in a long time, Tracy Brooks felt special.The failure of her previous marriage took such a huge toll on her that her life nearly became miserable.Having dedicated three solid years of her youthful days to her ex-husband, she got in return hurt, disappointment and shame.Tracy had struggled to let go of the thoughts of Charles and his past behavior.But life was good now and she was all about her work and role at Channel 24/7 Live. However, there was a gentleman in the picture who seemed to have taken a liking to her and she was confused about how to react to the gentleman's advances.So, a day after the evening she was serenaded by Henry, she thought it was a great idea to escape the noise in her immediate surroundings and clear her head of what was happening in a rather quiet and peaceful environment.And Purple Islands was her last resort having considered a few other places.To stay under the radar and not get recognized by anyone, she disguised herself a
"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. I can only imagine what will happen when I share t
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
"I am so sorry madam. Oh my goodness. Please forgive me. I'm so sorry I spoiled your dress," Tracy flashed back to the first day she met Henry at the coffee shop when he spilled her dress with coffee."Please, it was not my intention. I beg you to please forgive me. I could quickly rush down to a nearby boutique and get you a new dress. I'm so sorry. What's your dress size?" She remembered the exact words of Henry.Tracy was in her bedroom all by herself introspecting and looking back to past events. Having spent some quality time with Henry at the beach, she could not help but isolate herself and think things through because it was surreal.She sought to flashback to a few events that have happened ever since she met Henry.A part of her brain was convincing her that it was all just a lie. And another part of her brain was telling her that it was real."These flowers are beautiful. I like them," she flashed back to when Henry had sent flowers to her at the office. Excited about ho
"There you ladies are," Louisa said after she walked into June and Tracy.Brooks sat on the bed reading a message on her phone from someone and smiling to herself."And what's getting you so excited? Who messaged you?" Louisa asked."Oh come on Louisa. Isn't it obvious? I mean who else will message her to get her in such a happy and lively mood if not Henry? It's obvious they both didn't get enough of their time out and are continuing from where they left off via text," June asserted."Oh stop saying nonsense," Tracy cut in and dropped her phone on the bed after reading the message."Oh, I'm talking nonsense? If so then prove me wrong by telling us whose message you're reading and smiling about," June said and also sat on the bed."And when did that one start? That I have to tell you who I'm chatting with?" Tracy said in a defensive voice.June swiftly responded and said, "I'm not asking you to reveal anything. My remark comes on the back of your denial that it's not Henry who's getti
"Tracy, are you still here? I thought you'd be out for a break to get something to eat," June asked when she walked into Tracy's office to see her acting dull and sitting behind her desk."Why are you still here?" She asked again but Tracy would not say a word."Tracy, Tracy, is everything okay?" June asked again."Yes, everything is okay," she finally responded in an unconvincing tone."No, I don't believe you. You don't look okay and your tone of voice is not encouraging," June said and sat in the chair in front of Tracy's desk."Knocking, can I come in?" Louisa, who had opened the door slightly, asked."What's wrong? You don't look okay?" She asked Tracy immediately after she entered.She had entered with a pack of rice and chicken and placed it on Tracy's desk the second she entered."Oh, you notice too?" June asked after Louisa realized the sad and dull look on their friend's face."Ladies, I want to ask you about something," Tracy said. "Sure, what's the matter?" June asked."Y
"Listen, Fiona, it's been weeks since that fake news about me and Tracy made the headlines. Can you let it rest already?" Charles asked his wife who was nagging him.He was seated on the couch going through some documents he brought from the office. But his wife would not let him have a moment of peace to concentrate on what he was doing."Let what rest? You shamelessly went out with that lady, did whatever you had to do with her on Purple Islands and you came back here to tell tales?" She asked in a furious tone."Oh, now I understand why you decided to go with your parents, leaving me behind. I'm sure they were in on all this. You planned with them so that it will look like you went on a vacation with your parents when in fact you went there to see your lover," she added in an accusing tone."Because who goes on such a vacation with their parents? Aren't such trips meant for lovers? Your parents were there as a couple and you were there as what? A bodyguard? Or what, answer me?" She
