Mesta

Mecael's choices did not appease me. They at most infuriated me to the point where I felt like killing him myself. We were in his office.

He allowed his brother to join us. Why? I didn't know. The guy was too lazy to make a living for himself. Despite finishing the University and graduation with masters in education,he had achieved nothing with his life. We were exactly thirteen minutes in and his chest was already rising and falling at a steady pace. The jackass was sleeping in a damn meeting.

The other two men were discussing transportation into the coast. We had just received a threat from the mafia and Mecael simply dismissed it.

Two knocks are heard. I open.

What did she want?

Aria stood at the door. Her eyes were wet. Her hair was tied as usual.

"What?" I snapped. I had little to no tolerance for this girl.

"Mecael."

What was I supposed to do with his name only.

"Call him for me." Her eyes looked at the papers she was holding.

"He's busy. Go away." I shut the door befo

    AriaAfter an hour's breakdown,I was now okay. Mecael had stayed with me. Holding my as I sniffled and used a whole box of tissue. He run me a bath afterwards. I come out and he was not around. I get dressed and bun my hair.A knock is heard and Mecael enters,a plate in hand."You've decided to turn my to into a dining?" I pick a book and throw it on the bed."Way to answer me after I just held you. You're very ungrateful." He set the plate on the stand beside the bed."Didn't know you were a fan of scrambled eggs." I sit and open the book."I'm not. They're yours." "I'm not hungry. Normal people eat when they're hungry." "You don't eat even if you're hungry. Also we need to talk. You'll need energy for that talk."I felt my hair stand. Maybe it was nothing to be worried about. Still all kinds of conversations held after 'we need to talk' aren't usually pretty.I sigh and pull the plate. Eggs and noodles. Way to go. "If you think picking on your food will make me hand feed you,you'

    AriaI took a long bath taking the time to convince myself that I won't die. It's a party. A simple party attended by almost every mafia in existence. Why would they kill me? I don't even own a car. I have nothing under my name. No one had anything against me.I wrapped a huge towel around my body after drying it and settled on the dressing table to do my makeup. Being a bored teen with no social life led to me do some self learning. One of the things I learnt was how to do my make up. I moisturized my face and applied the base. I used a matte foundation as my skin was oily. I finished off with the other ones quickly as I started to grow tired. I was done with my face. For my long hair,I held it up in a French twist. There. That was perfect enough. Formal yet classy. I wore my dress cursing at myself for doing the hair before. The dress showed of my shoulders as it rested just above my bossoms. The slit on my right run up to my upper thigh. My waist was accentuated by the style of

    MecaelAria was getting restless. She took my hand as we walked to the dance floor. I let go and walk before her offering my hand asking for a dance. She took it and I pulled her close. Her arms wrap around my waist. Her fingers lightly brushed my neck."Ever danced before?" My hand held her waist."Yeah. My mom loved dancing. That was before papa died and she got married again." "I'm sorry about your dad." "That's a social cue. The sorry part,I mean. Also,it wasn't your fault and he deserved it." Her face winced like she was in pain.His dad must have done something for her to feel that way even after his death. Is it why she flinched when I raised my voice at him that time? Why she tries so hard to hide her emotions?The song became slow.Her blue eyes held mine staring deeply. I wanted to open her mind to know what was going on in there. That said,I had no intention of doing it because she would end up dead. I could never kill her.I pulled her close to me. Her hand gently tagge

    GregMecael was sitted across me. His shoulders were slumped. His black hair was messy. It was never messy. He had dark circles under his eyes. He looked like a possessed adult doll from a horror movie that wasn't really scary.We've been seated in silence for almost thirty minutes. He would make attempts to speak but fail at doing so. I didn't want to rush him so I waited."I cant…"he shakes his head. "I can't live without her,Greg." His voice came out barely as a whisper."She'll be okay. She's under sedatives and she'll be up soon." "I love her." He declared."No,no you don't love her Mecael. You CANT love her. You shouldn't love her." He gave me a pleading look. "Don't kid yourself. Sure she seems fit to be your submissive but throw in love? You can't be serious."I wasn't trying to reprimand him but it came out like I was.And maybe he had forgotten what had happened the last time he said he loved someone. I didn't forget,but reminding him of it was not appropriate right now. "

    AriaI slowly opened my eyes. I stared blankly into space before the details of the room load into my head. I was in my room. The last thing I remember was me screaming at the hospital about how I was going to die. I felt some warmth emanating from my side.I look down to my leg. It was plopped up on two pillows. I turn my head to the right to see where the warmth was coming from. Mecael. His head was on the bed. His breathing was steady. My hand was in his. I try to move but he holds onto it tighter. I shake my hand trying to get it away from him.He stirs and raises his head."Hey…you're awake." He lets out a relieved sigh.His plan to kill me didn't succeed and now he wants to act like he cares. I roughly pull my hand away from him and settle it on my stomach. I turned my neck so that my gaze shifted to the left."Go away." I said roughly."What? No, I didn't do anything. I couldn't sleep on the bed with you so…umm…yeah…but I could not leave you alone either." He spoke quickly."Y

    MestaI glared at him. He glared back. His ideas were stupid. Irrational and they would all fail. I would have been given the organization to run but he got it instead. The test was to kill someone and not show emotions. As simple as that. He passed with flying colors.That did not mean he was qualified enough. There's much more to running an organization than killing people. He was stupid. Not Alex stupid but close. His idea was even more stupid."If you can just calm down and try to reason." I start. He let's out a frustrated sigh and turns dramatically to the seat. His elbow rests on the desk. He leaned his head and held his forehead."We'll send in a spy." He repeated."We cannot send in a spy at this time Mecael." I tried to explain. "Everything has crumbled down. The shipment have been stolen. What are you sending a spy for?" I was this close to snapping and landing a hot slap on his cheek."My wife Aria was shot. I don't care about the fucking shipments. They can come ask me f

    MecaelI stare at the stack of papers infront of me. Working on them in the warehouse wasn't a choice I appreciated. Working at the warehouse was a choice I made myself.I sigh and reach for the top three. I ran my eyes through them not paying attention to any detail. Mesta would go through them because she didn't trust me to do a job good.I didn't blame her. Ever since mother brought her home she has always tried to prove herself. Going above and beyond to do things in a perfect way. Me on the other hand,I couldn't care less. No deal I wanted to seal ever failed. If I needed answers from prisoners then answers I'd get. Except for the last shipment,the other ones were always successful. That was all that mattered and not these stupid papers.I hear the door open. No rush movements from the guards indicated that it was someone they were familiar with. Father never paid attention to this side. Alex was ever in his own world. That left only one person."You're not yet done?" She stood

    MecaelWe quietly made our way to the other rooms. Each time I would open and Mesta would back me up. My mind drifted to Aria wandering how she was holding up. She was probably tucked inside the closet. Her beautiful mind could also tell her to hide under the sheets again. I groan."What" she gave me a frustrated look."What?" I had not done anything."You just groaned." She looks at me blankly."I did?" She opens her mouth to speak."Of course I did. This situation is frustrating." She nods and starts moving again.A bang is heard from downstairs. We stopped in our tracks and listened. Mesta's head was cocked to the right, listening. My eyes roamed around trying to catch a moving figure. Footsteps were heard inside the house. Mesta looks at me and nods. I nod back. She cocked her gun. "Leave two for questioning.""I know the rules." During an attack,always capture two alive. One always turned out to be the loyal one. He wouldn't betray his organization even if he had to give up h

    AriaMecael held me until I stopped crying sniveling. Still,I held onto him because I did not want him to go away.I cried because at the end of it all everything had worked out. Not all of it was perfect but it was in place.Like last month the business made a loss but it did not collapse. It stayed and this month I'm certain it will all be better.Just like our lives,bits by bit,it was all falling into place.For the last three months, everything had happened so fast and I couldn't help myself from worrying that it will all fall apart.We had bought a larger apartment where we had room for the kids to run around. Thick walls for mecael and I and a larger kitchen and office for Phoebe.Alex had finally admitted to his feelings. Though he was thrown into a turmoil when Liz proposed out of nowhere,he got after it soon enough and said yes. They had a church wedding which obviously came as a surprise to all of us.None of the boys have visited Heloriet ever since he was taken away. We rec

    Aria"Mom." I yelled as I made my way into the station.Mecael met me halfway. "Babe." I felt his gaze travel past me. "They have gone to get Greg from the airport." He nodded in understanding."Lorei…she."I step past him and charged towards my mother who was screaming about Heloriet being mad.I grabbed her biceps and forced her to stand still facing me. "What do you think you're doing,mother!"Her hands held onto my arms and she shook me frantically. "Aria…Aria..tell them,tell them how he tortured me. How he ran that…that business and forced the drugs down me. Tell them everything."My eyes burned with tears and I could not understand the reason behind them.Maybe it was the fury of watching her act like this. Or the extent of truth her words held.Perhaps it was none of those but the fact that ay the back of my mind I wanted to see her drop dead.It was the feeling of me having to betray the woman who carried me for none months and also took part in my upbringing.But why should

    Aria"How is he?" I asked pacing in the hall. At the same time Mecael asked about the ones who were in the hospital"I don't know. The doctors haven't come out yet." "He's okay,I guess."I stop moving. "You guess?""He keeps on repeating that he did not push them. It's day three,Aria,your mom is not awake and so is the doctor."I sigh and sit. "Can I be honest with you? I feel nothing about this situation. In real sense I feel like they both deserve it. Except for the doctor,he doesn't."He hums from the other side. "I get you babe.""Is Alex with you?""He's supposed to be there by now,also Greg and Lionne are on their way. They are almost landing if I'm not wrong."The door opens. "I'll call you later.""Bye babe. Be safe.""Doctor.""Aria? She is awake.""The man?""His chances of survival are pretty low. But we'll keep you updated.""Then how is she? Can I go in and see her?"He nodded and followed me inside."That's the only thing she's been saying. 'Ill do it. Don't kill me.' S

    Aria"James,Aurora stop running around,you'll fall." I called after them as I picked up the toys they had left all over."Kiiiids." They did not stop. I sigh and place the box of toys down.The front door opens and Phoebe walks on with lots of bag."I'm not against your spending but please limit it.""Hey babe." She pokes her head around. "Aurora,James.""Auntie!" That was Aurora. She came running so fast that I feared she would slip and fall."I told you to not run." I say breaking James speed."Na-na." "Come to me baby." She picks him from me.Looking around. "Where's your husband?"I playfully hit her arm. "He's not my husband. But he's gone to meet with some people,work related."She laughs and guides the kids to the kitchen."Nothing for me?""You have your own money. Spend it before you die."I go to reply but my phone vibrates from the coffee table.She stops moving." Oh you have friends now?""Shut it,Phoebe."A new number. "Hello.""Did I ever tell you I majored in performi

    HelorietMy heart thudded painfully against my chest. Sweat droplets trickled down my face,behind my neck all the way down to my back.I swallowed hard,an action that was painful as well. The temperature in the room seemed to be cold but at the same time I was so hot that I was literally burning up.My knees were on the floor and I remained there,not wanting to tempt Lorei because I was too aware of what she was capabilities.She let out a loud sigh and removed her gloves. She licked up a pair of scissors that was lying on top of the drawer.Snipping it towards me,she said, "Do you want to know what I'm going to do with this?"No. No I did not.Her words scared me but what crepped me out even more was what she was going to do. Stabbing him to death? That would be painful. But he might survive if she happens to stab the less delicate parts,his thigh,for example.I shivered and pushed the thought further away as possible.If I think positive then everything else will be positive.

    Lorei"Hello babe." I greet while sipping my wine."What?" He grumbled from the other side."I'm just checking on you.""I'm not yet dead so I assume you are not done with me."I gasp faking my surprise. "Who says I want to see you six feet under. I want you alive,so alive so that you won't be able to take any more of living.""I've already seen what you have succedes at doing,if that is what you want to confirm."A chuckle escapes my mouth. "I know you've seen it. I mean,I went out of my way to ensure they aired it,I did all that for you.""Geez,thanks.""You're welcome." I place the glass down and get to my feet. I swing slowly to where the other man was seated,tied up on a chair."Are you asleep,Heloriet?""What? No,I am tired.""Don't care." I tap on the man,waking him up. "I have someone who I am sure you'd love to hear from.""Unfortunately,I have no one.""Really? Think again, Heloriet. Think carefully." I speak slowly allowing him to soak in every word and get the weight of it

    MecaelShe had said no to us moving in together. Well,it was not a direct no. She asked me to give her time.I agreed to that and that is why we are here seated on a date.James and Aurora are with their aunt who is also their godmother,Phoebe. Yes,she want it all."Why do you keep looking at me like that?"I smile. "I missed you and I'm happy that we are here like this…together.""I'm glad.""So what do you do nowadays that you gave up on the,you know.""I went into real estate.""Um,wow…I,I'm surprised.""I know. Greg was the one who helped me as he has a social life. Him moving also worked for my best.""I see." She drunk her wine. "How is Lionne, haven't talked to him for a while.""The boy is flourishing. He even went into modeling and–"She chocked on her food. "Wait. Wait wait wait. You mean Lionne,the Lionne that I know?""Everyone gave that reaction.""But it's good for him.""Yeah…" she was now playing with her food. "You're full." I noted."Mh.""Let's go to your place?"O

    AriaAin't no way.After years of not seeing each other we meet casually at a park. What a coincidence.The beat my heart was currently playing was faster than any beat I've ever heard in all the music I have come across."I quit drinking." He announces after a long stretch of eyes fixated on each other."Good…I…I'm proud of you."He gave me a beaming smile with the corner of his eyes forming wrinkles. "Yeah." He chuckled. "Thank you."I cleared my throat. "You were with James. Thank you for looking out for him." "He got hurt. I'm sorry about that."I look at James. "Happens to the best of us.""I love his eyes." Of course he loves his eyes. The pairs are exactly the same. James took most of his features,like all of them. The eyes,face,hair,how his lips curl up in a smile.He held the girls hand. "This is Aurora."I smiled as I repeated the name.The bubbly child stepped forward and outstretched her tiny arm to me.I took it."Aurora. I'm a princess."Mesta was pregnant,that much I

    HelorietI called him. I gathered all the courage I've packed and called him.I glance at the clock. Turning away I realize I had not registered the time,so I checked again.Only an hour remaining. One hour and he'll be here.After watching the news for more times that usual,I headed to my bedroom. The rest of the time was spent with me in bed feeling pathetic and regretting all my life choices.A knock came and the knob turned."I'm okay now,you can leave." I say under the blankets.I heard his low chuckle as he came closer. The weight shifted on the left side. A soft hand landed on my arm."I saw it.""It's bad but I have dealt with it. You can go.""I need you to look at me.""No."Silence.I sigh and uncover my face. He uses his finger to turn my head into his direction."I'm not crying." I say avoiding his eyes. "Is that's what you are looking for.""How have you dealt with it?"Good question.I had no answer.I sat upright. "Wanna have sex?" I lean in,my hand resting on his th
