"It's time to me to wake..." I heard a voice sing repeatedly in my ears, The voice sounded familiar but I couldn't tell where it was coming from, after few minutes of resisting the urge to wake up, I finally did. I opened my eyes gradually and saw Esther shining gaze at me. The sun was already so high, adding light and illumination to the room which made the whole place look beautiful.I smiled at her in responds to her call. "I know you did be hungry so I brought you something to eat" she said in a light ton, Dropping a tray of food and different fruit on my bed. "Breakfast on bed hum" I said with smiles on my face.That was so thoughtful of her, sometimes I wonder how lucky her husband would be if she had decided to get married, on a second thought, coils she had been married? "Thank you Esther" I said and started eating, this is so much of good. "Yeah, I knew you needed it and I had to help out. Please be fine and don't beat yourself so much for what had already happened."
"Mmmh. This smells really nice." Esther said with smile on her face. You are a really good cook. I want to believe that the pasta taste just as nice as it smells" she teased while coming towards me. Do you mind sharing what you used in preparing this. I am sure when Nats comes it would be very difficult to turn his back on you, talk more about the food that smells so good" She said teasing me. As much as I knew it was a tease, I was convinced that it was more of what would likely happen than the other way . I smiled at all her compliment, she had a very good comment about my food when she tasted it, and I was so sure that nat would definitely do the same thing. The moment I was done with everything I had to do in the kitchen. I rushed back to my room "Time to get the final work done" I said with smile on my face looking at my reflection on the mirror. I strolled gradually to the wash room, put on the shower and allowed it flow down my body washing away everything that nee
The moment I got close, my gaze fell on Clara's stern look. She had disgust and heatread written all over her face. I didn't mind her look, I already know what she is capable of and how she behaves. I couldn't just tell why we would always surface in my life. "My greatest night mare" I whispered as I walked closer. After what she did the other day at the event, j knew she wasn't somebody to joke with, she would do what ever it she can to make sure she has a way and get what ever she wants to get. I raised my head up to look at Nat, ignoring all sarcastic and evil look she had all over on her face. All this while nat head was bent and focused on what he was doing, he didn't notice what clara was doing, and didn't even notice that I was coming.At interval, I turned my gaze towards clara. With the look on her face I could body tell that she was not happy to see me, but then What was she expecting. "Coming to my house and thing I would be somewhere hiding in the chilling for her to
"Just being curious, do you anything about the warehouse incident, I was a little worried because we haven't had such in a longest time?" I questioned with my gaze peering at her."Things happen, and I think that is one of the things that just happen" she responded She sounded a bit distracted, with the sound of her voice, I knew she wasn't interested in the conversation, so I decided to just lock up and let the matter slide. I could always find out what happened there if I want to, but then since nobody got hurt, I decided to just let it slide and act as the fool.I became so engrossed in my thought, and just being my head down munching on the fruit on the table and thinking about so many things. My life felt as though it was empty, nothing Interesting was happening, I had thought that when I carry out my revenge everything would go back to normal, and would probably be happier and would start having an interest in things, but that wasn't happening. "Bring Ashley to the house was
Ashley's Pov. Sobbing quietly in my room, I heard a soft knock on the door, I knew who the person was because the knock sounded familiar. "Just go, I don't want to talk to anybody. My ki is gradually slipping out from my hands and all of this is because I made the choice to protect my family from the monster called Nat. Now my life is going to be used to replace that of my family." I spoke out crying bitterly. Tears rolled down my eyes shocking the bedspread I was lying on. "Remember, when you feel sad, do one thing, that thing that makes you happy, that is what you should be doing now, things would get better and I assure you," she said sill with a low voice. "Open the door let's talk" she concluded. I lay there for a while without saying anything to her, a long pause silenced our conversation.What next was I to do, when everything I did with all my heart ended up going against me? This very one that I had expected would make Nat happy and probably make him forgive me, was
The moment she left the room, I sat back to think of what she had just said. "Would you prefer peace over trouble?" The words kept ringing in my ears, peace over trouble means doing all you can do to avoid any form of trouble sh made more sense to me than, and had a deeper meaning. "Was she trying to advise me to stay away from trouble, what made her come to the house? What situation led her to this house?" I questioned As I couldn't answer all of these questions myself, I got up and ran to her room for her to give me the answer to the questions I had ringing in my mind."I have a question to ask, can you pass. open the door?" I asked politely while I stood at the front of her door."No... You have heard enough for today, do and think about it and come back tomorrow for me to tell you the rest or answer all the questions you have to ask" she responded."Are you not going at least open the door for me to come in?" "No, get some rest in your room we would see another time" she con co
Nat Pov.I opened my eyes to the brightness of the day, the chirping sounds of birds, and the swift and heartwarming sound that came as a result of the breeze blowing kept me smiling. The day was beginning on a good note and had several promises. I felt really good and happy about myself all the things that got me sad and angry were no longer a thing to worry about. I laid on my back and relaxed "The best feeling ever!" I whispered. "What!! How did I get home yesterday?" I questioned the moment a thought came into my mind the last thing I could remember about last night was that I went out alone to the bar to have some drink and after that?" I questioned with my eyes peering at the colling. The moment I couldn't get an answer to my question, I jerked up hurriedly and checked myself to see if something was missing. And that was when I noticed that all my wounds were dressed and they were not as painful as they were yesterday. This gave me cause to worry. I started to search my
My eyes immediately became watery. Gears threatened to call from my eyes. As much as I was trying my possible best to avoid tearing up, I couldn't still help it than to allow the tears that were treating me to fall peaceful All my hope had been shattered, even though I didn't expect much from him I still felt that he was going to be a bit nice to thank me for the unpaid service I did for him yesterday, but instead, he choose out of all other things too, to be rude. "Why do you like to always cry, is it something you were born to do?" He asked in a very sarcastic tone. I hate to admit the fact that I was crying, but that was the ink thing I could dot the moment, cry. I was heartbroken and my hopes had been shattered. The only thing people in that state do is cry, very out of their eyes. The moment he asked me that question, I immediately forgot what brought me there. "Was I meant to say I came to check up on him or say I came to dress his wound" After all I came to do the two a
