I stared hopelessly at Sorin, who walked back into the bathroom, leaving me on the floor to pick myself up. A trickle of tears escaped my eyes, I soon began to cry, still sitting on the floor.Soon, I heard a knock on the door,"Ma'am? Are you alright?" The voice called out, from outside the room.I could not answer immediately because I didn't want the person to hear me crying.Excuse me, ma'am, are you in there?" The female voice asked again.I wiped my tears and cleared my throat before responding,"Yes, I am. I am fine too." I said in a rush because the tears were about to start flowing again."But you just screamed now. Are you sure you are fine?" The voice asked once again, to be sure I was truly fine."Yes, I am. Thank you." I answered."Okay, if you need anything, I'll be downstairs." She said and I heard her footsteps getting fainter by the second, signifying that she was walking away.The moment I didn't hear the footsteps anymore, I crawled to the bedside and curled myself

"Now, who is there at this time of the day?" Sorin asked."It's Kelvin, sir." The person responded."What is it?" Sorin inquired."I need to see you, sir." Kelvin answered."What for? Can't it wait till tomorrow?""I'm afraid sir, it can't."Wait for me in the study then. I'll be with you soon."Alright, sir." He said, as he walked away from the door, to Sorin's study....At the Zaveris' Mighty Mansion Sorin's parents; Mr and Mrs Zaveri, sat comfortably in their bedroom. One of the maids had just brought them some water and some fruits to snack on for the night. This had been a custom in their house for years. They always had some fruits and clean, clear water before bed."Just leave it over there and leave." Mrs Zaveri ordered, pointing at the marble stool beside the bed.The maid dropped it on the table."Is there anything else you'll be needing, ma'am?" The maid asked."No, that will be all for now." She answered the maid."Alright, ma'am. Alright sir." The maid replied and wal

Daisy paced in the waiting area of the hospital. Her arms folded against her chest as she gritted her teeth. One of her guards, Rose, ran towards her with a flash drive and a laptop.She stared intently at her as soon as she arrived and said,"Why are you just coming? What took you so long?"' She thundered at the guard."I'm so sorry ma." He apologized.Daisy's eyes soon travelled around her face and in the corner of Rose's lip, she saw a cut and a blood stain. She also noticed that her face had scratch signs.Rose hastily tried to cover it but it was too late because Daisy had seen it."What happened to you too? Why does your face look this way? And what is this cut on your lip?" Daisy asked, pointing at the guard's mouth."It is nothing too serious, ma'am. I was with Miss Sonia when the whole issue happened. We were both attacked." Rose began."What? You mean you were there? And you couldn't help her? What rubbish are you spewing from your mouth?" Daisy began to ask, raising her voi

"Pa Zaveri, sir." Kelvin replied."Damn!" Sorin began to pace around in his study."These people know what they are doing. I don't know what they are up to, but I know whatever it is they are up to is of no good. They know I will never refuse if G.P is involved." He said, as he kept walking back and forth in an unsettled state."Were you planning not to attend before?" Kelvin asked him and Sorin stopped pacing to stare hardly at him."Get out right now!" He barked at Kelvin."Alright sir, I'm sorry, sir." Kelvin apologized and walked out of the study.Sorin rested his back against the wall and began to think of various ways to avoid going to his parent's house with me."All this is because of this crazy girl!" He yelled, kicking his foot in the air.He thought about calling his parents to convince them to change their mind. "Those people won't answer me." He said aloud. "But I'll call anyway." He said after thinking about it for a little while.He looked around in search of his phone

I could have sworn that I didn't hear what he said clearly. I wasn't sure of what I heard."I'm sorry, what?" I asked, puzzled. "Have you suddenly gone deaf?" He shouted at me."I'm sorry, I didn't understand what you said earlier." I responded."What is it you don't understand? There is nothing difficult in the statement I just made.""Look, I have had a long day. Do not add to my stress! Goodnight!" He said, as he dragged the duvet over his head.I wanted to say something but I decided to keep quiet, seeing that he had already covered his face with the duvet, meaning that he didn't want to talk to me anymore.I was confused, I didn't know why he was always mad at me and I didn't have to do anything before he flipped out on me. One moment, he is looking at me with warmth in his eyes and the next moment, he is looking at me coldly, like he is about to strangle me to death."God! Help me, please. This is too much for me to bear." I muttered.I didn't think about sleeping in the same b

Shocked at his statement, I opened my mouth,"What do you mean by that?" I asked him."I thought you died in your sleep." He snapped at me.I stared at him in utter disbelief,"Why would you say such a thing?" I asked, pained at the hurtful words he was saying to me."If it was not that you had died in your sleep, how would you explain this." He asked me, pointing at the dismantled alarm clock on the floor.It was then that I realized what was going on and why he was being so dramatic. I had set the alarm but I didn't hear it ring and it woke him up instead, leaving him so cranky and angry."I'm sorry, I didn't know that the alarm was still set for 4am." I apologized."You knew you were a heavy and deep sleeper. Why did you set the alarm in the first place? You're just intentionally insensitive." He declared."What!" I yelled. "I'm insensitive? Really?" I asked, confused."Of course! That's what you are!" He shouted at me."Let this be the last time you'll ever try this rubbish! Let t

"No way!" She screamed."Not today of all days. This is my best outfit! Gosh!" She said, stomping her feet on the ground.She immediately ran to the mirror to check how bad it was, but luckily, it was just a little rip."Oh! It's not that bad." She said to herself.Immediately, she pulled it off. She swiftly got a needle and thread, which she always had in the house in case of any emergency wardrobe malfunctions.She threaded the needle in no time and quickly patched her clothes. Once she was done, she checked it out to see how it looked."Thank God!" She said. "It's not too obvious, it actually looks like a different design." She stated."Girl! You're still very smart." She squealed in excitement and smiled brightly."I'm proud of myself!" She exclaimed.She quickly put her dress on once again, but this time around, she was more careful to avoid any more malfunctions. She picked up her black wrist watch from her dressing table and strapped it to her left arm.She picked up her black

"Just leave me the hell alone! Stay out of my way and stay out of my business!" Sorin yelled at me and I closed my eyes.I still had my eyes closed when I noticed he wasn't talking anymore. The loud sound of the door after he jammed it made me shake and open my eyes, only for me to realize that he had walked out of the room.I fell to the ground in a crouching position, staring blankly at the dismantled alarm clock. I wanted to leave the room but I was scared. I didn't want to run into Sorin because it would definitely not be a fun scene. So, I thought avoiding him would be the solution. I soon began to soliloquize."When he wakes up, I'll remain in bed. When he dresses up, I'll not look at him. When he leaves the room, I'll remain in the room, but when he comes back into the room, I'll leave the room. That way, I'll be able to avoid getting into trouble with him."Another round of thoughts soon filled my head."But I'm married to him!" I said out loud, sitting on the ground and kicki

“Ma'am?” Kelvin rushed in too. “Oh my goodness!” He exclaimed.“Call the doctor, immediately. “ Anne yelled, panicking. Kelvin immediately took his phone, and swiftly speed-dialled the doctor. “Hello Doctor. It's an emergency. Please come by the—”“I’m not dead….” I weakly spoke up, stopping him mid-sentence.“Oh my goodness.” Anne sighed in relief, her eyes welling up with tears.Kelvin was also relieved to see that I was fine. I saw relief evident on his face.Although I spoke weakly, at least it gave them the reassurance that I wasn't unconscious, or dead, maybe.“What is going on? Is there an emergency?” I heard the doctor's voice faintly from Kelvin's phone.He immediately checked his phone and realized the doctor was still on the call. “It's nothing, Doctor. Don't bother. Bye for now.” He quickly spoke into the receiver and ended the call.“You scared me.” Anne said, wiping her tears as she helped me sit up.“I know, and I'm sorry.” I apologized, my voice a bit inaudible.“You

“Mr Zaveri has left already.” Kelvin reiterated, making it clear to Anne that Sorin wasn't around, and her outburst was basically going to be pointless.“Geez!!!” Anne slowly dropped to the ground once again.“So he was in a hurry to leave right after serving her divorce papers? How much more insensitive could he be.” She said, her tone filled with disappointment.“Actually, we had a heated argument. A bit of an angry back and forth. I guess that was what made him pack up and leave earlier than he was supposed to.” Kelvin explained, but Anne shook her head.“That’s not an excuse, Kelvin. He is just wicked and insensitive. That's all I can say.”She turned to look at him again and at that moment, it clicked. Kelvin's busted lip was as a result of his argument with Sorin.She swiftly got up. “He did this to you, didn't he?” She asked him, her tone filled with both curiosity and certainty.He maintained a blank expression. “Anne, it's nothing.”“That's not what I'm asking you, Kelvin.” S

“I’m so sorry.” Anne quickly apologized with a bow.And without waiting to see who it was, off she went again, running with a sense of urgency. As she got to the road, she raised her hand, hurriedly hailing a taxi.Just as the taxi stopped and she was about to get into it, Jake's car arrived, stopping a few metres away from them. And as soon as he saw her, he immediately noticed that she looked distraught.“Isn't that Anne?” He asked Terry, who also tried to confirm if it was truly her.“It appears so, sir.” Terry replied, and Jake frowned.“It appears so? Or she is the one? Which is it?” Jake asked, visibly upset by Terry's choice of words.“I'm sorry, sir. She is the one.” Terry apologized, correcting himself.“Where could she be going in such a hurry?” He asked, out loud.“I have no idea, sir. Do you want me to find out?” Terry asked him.“Yes, find out.” Jake answered sharply.Just as Terry took out his phone to make a call, Anne's taxi began to leave.“You know what? Forget it. F

Sorin leaned his back against the door, his head resting on the cool wood of the door, wearily. The sound of my muffled sobs as I cried my heart out, seeped through the door, a haunting reminder of the pain he had just caused me. He closed his eyes as the weight of his decision crushed him. Guilt tore through his heart, as he kept wondering if he had done the right thing.“So you think you just did the right thing?” Kelvin's voice snapped him back to normalcy.He had been so lost in his thoughts that he didn't hear Kelvin approaching him.Seeing Kelvin standing right in front of him, he cleared his throat and remained silent right after.“You're not saying anything, Sorin.” Kelvin stated, waiting for a response from him. “I hope you're happy now.” He said, his tone laced with criticism.Knowing that Kelvin was about to begin to lecture him about what he had just done, Sorin immediately turned around, and headed towards the bedroom. Kelvin refused to back down. “Really? You're just g

FIVE MONTHS LATER “Sign it…” Sorin tossed a bunch of documents towards me.“What is it?” I asked, picking up the documents from the table, but I didn't get a response.As I began to read the contents of the documents, I couldn't believe my eyes. I stared shockingly at the documents in my trembling hands, as Sorin's voice re-echoed in my ears, in the silence of his study.I couldn't believe what I was seeing. It felt like I was having a very bad dream. A dream I wanted to wake up from so badly.He had told me to come to his study that morning because we needed to talk about some important things. I had been so excited, thinking we were finally making some progress in maybe fixing our rocky marriage, but never did I imagine that I would be staring at such heartbreaking papers.“These are divorce papers.” I said, hoping that it was a mistake or some stunt he was trying to pull.“Yes, I know. I have signed my own part of it. You should sign yours.” He answered sharply, his eyes fixated o

“Anne?” I managed to mutter as soon as I found my voice.“Is… is this really you?” I stuttered, not sure if I was seeing the right person.Actually only Anne could have recognized me with all my disguise as she was one of the very few people who called me “Drea”.“Yes, it's me. Oh my goodness, I can't believe this.” She responded happily, her eyes welling up with tears.Before I could even say anything, she rushed towards me, and we collapsed into a tearful hug, the emotions of our reunion overwhelming us both.“I'm so speechless right now. I don't even know what to say. I don’t know how to react. I came here to get something for the house.” I said, pulling down my hoodie.“Me too…” Anne replied, wiping her tears. “I needed to get some things urgently, that was why I came here. I never would have imagined that I would meet you here.”Apparently, she had also come to get new glassware products for her kitchen to replace the ones that broke the previous night. The song I was humming was

"A plan?” Kelvin asked, surprised.“Yes. I'll go incognito,” I said, a sly grin spreading across my face. “No one will even recognize me.”“Are you sure that will work?” He questioned, with an unsure look on his face.“Of course. Just make sure you don't follow me around so that it won't raise suspicions.” I said again. “You should dress the part too. If anyone identifies you, they'll surely know that something is fishy.”He sighed again. “No problem. I understand, ma'am.”“Thank you, Kelvin. I'll be down shortly.” I said and rushed upstairs to get prepared to leave for the hospital.I hurriedly took my bath and quickly got dressed, throwing on a pair of jean trousers, sneakers, and a black hooded sweatshirt. The large hoodie was the perfect addition to my disguise, and I deliberately chose it to help me blend in with the crowd and keep a low profile.We left the house and finally arrived at the hospital and of course, I didn't have to stand in line. I was attended to immediately.“S

The next morning I slowly opened my eyes to the warm brightness of morning light shining in through the window. The melodic chirping of birds outside filled the air, and I stretched, yawning loudly. But as my jaw cracked open wide, I remembered that I wasn't alone in the room. I quickly slapped my hand over my mouth, because I knew how much Sorin hated disturbances, and I had no intention of testing his patience.I immediately turned to his side of the bed to see his reaction, but to my surprise, he was nowhere in sight.“Where could he have gone?” I thought to myself.I wasn't sure if he had headed to the office or he was in his study, because it was one of those types of days where he would decide to stay in his study throughout the day.“Sorin?” I called out to him, hoping to get a response, even though I knew it was highly unlikely.As expected, I got no response and I wasn't too surprised. I got up and headed to the bathroom. The door was wide open and so, I knew he definitely wa

I heard Sorin's footsteps rushing out of the room, and heading towards me. I knew he must have heard the noise.Getting to where I was, and seeing that it was one of his favorite picture frames I had broken, he couldn't believe his eyes. “What the hell is this?” He yelled at me. “What exactly is wrong with you? Why are you such a clumsy girl? Why can't you just do anything right without causing chaos?”“I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to.” I immediately apologized.“That's what you always say. Yet you’ll do the same thing tomorrow.” He hissed in frustration.“I'm sorry…” I said again and crouched to the ground once again. “And what the hell do you think you're doing?” He asked, his eyebrows furrowed.“I want to clean it up right away.” I answered, trying to pick the broken pieces.My eyes remained fixed on him as I spoke to him to the point where I forgot what I was doing. And before he could warn me, I felt a sharp pain shoot through my already injured fingers.“Ouch!” I yelped, instin
