Somewhere unknown, or maybe it was known, but the lady standing had no idea where she was. Her memories seem to be distorted, as the only thing she could remember was attending her mother's funeral two years ago.Hailey woke up to find herself under a bridge, her skin was clammy and cold. How did she end up here? She was no longer aware of the memories that brought her to trouble.She had kept on walking hoping to find help. But everyone she came across doesn't seem to know who she was.“Excuse me sir. Where am I please”, she asked a random person. Who immediately had a confused expression?“Umm, you are in New York”. He stuttered, looking at her weirdly before walking away. “What is wrong with people these days”, she heard the young man echo. But she couldn't give a flying fuck about his attitude.She had seen earlier on the billboard the current date and it read January 2024. How the hell am I in 2024 if I only have memories from 2021. She whispered as her chest moved up and down, p
Megan stood with Bailey who had a very sad and worried look on her face. They were both looking down on Hailey that slept peacefully on the. The surgery was successful even though the doctors had told Megan earlier that the success of the surgery was only a fifty percent success.“Is she going to be fine?” Bailey's voice cracked.“Yes”, she will definitely be okay. Megan assured her friend with a hug to support her emotionally.Bailey nodded hoping what Megan had said would be true. She couldn't take the thought of something bad happening to Hailey. “When will she wake up?” She asked again, biting her nails nervously.“Bailey, I told you not to panic, didn't I”. Hailey is going to wake up soon and she will be fine. But would she actually be fine, she thought silently, contracting what she had just said?Well, this was simply because Megan had hidden some things the doctor had said earlier. They said some complicated stuff she couldn't understand. But what she could catch was that Hai
“This is a nice place”. Elizabeth whispered to Greg. Greg had convinced Elizabeth to go on a farewell vacation. If she wanted a divorce, then she had to agree to go on a last trip with him.She finally agreed after so many fights and persuasion. However she never thought that Greg had plans on killing her.“Yes, I had to borrow money so as to make sure you are very comfortable”. He said as he dropped his bag on the bed.“You know Greg, my father won't refund your money when you get in trouble”. She uttered with a cold voice that carried so much pride.“No. He is my very good friend so that won't be a problem”. He stammered as he was slightly embarrassed that Elizabeth looked down on him.She was going to die anyway right and he is going to leave off her money.“Good. And I won't get back together with you. You don't want Alex to be angry now right”. Her delusional state was simply going out of hands.Greg hands form into a fist. Jealousy running through his veins. Over his dead body
Greg had no regret in what he had done to Elizabeth. She laid on the floor, but she was not dead. He had carried her to the basement, putting her on a chair and tying her hands to the back. The plan was to set the whole place on fire.Slight soft coughs soon came out of Elizabeth's lips. Her heart palpated as her last memories started to rush in. “Let me go you bastard, you know my father very well, you know what he can do to you”. She threatened with a loud shrill voice.“Even at the time of death Elizabeth, that smart mouth of yours never shuts up”. He spat in annoyance.“Death? Elizabeth burst. I am not dying here, Greg. You brought me here to kill me, why. Is it because I asked for a divorce, well, guess what you are a loser? A fucking looser”. Her hands trembled as she yelled.“Don't you even want to know why I am doing this. Aren't you curious why I would want to kill the love of my life”? He walked closer to her, trailing her pale skin.“Don't touch me. If you dare do anything
Elizabeth put the lighter on and released it to fall on the ground and the wildfire spread so fast consuming greg. His screams were like songs to her ears. “You were so sure that I would be the one to die”. She uttered with a satisfied tone.“Noooooooo”, Greg screamed in agony. The pain was unbearable. And come to think of it, being burnt alive is one of the worst pain a human being could experience.His memories start to flash before his eyes, where did it all go wrong.“Do you Greg promise to take Megan Smith as your lawfully wedded wife. He could hear the bells at his wedding, the voice of the priest and Megan's beautiful and happy face as she answered "yes I do”.All the voices were coming in at once but the pain didn't seem to stop. It was excruciating and it became more and more painful. If only he could turn the hands of time then he would have done the right thing but it was too late.“I am so sorry”. He whispered to no one in particular. His eyes had no focus as his face was
“I have always dreamt of the day I will finally get to eradicate you from this world”. Elizabeth's eyes filled with a dark sinister amusement. She had already tied Megan down and stuffed her mouth with tissue paper.Megan could only whimper, her eyes darting around the room frantically with a mixture of fear and determination. Determination to not die in vain.“Let's get this over with. I will shoot you straight to the heart so you can die immediately”. Her eyes twinkled with a hint of mischief as her mouth barely parted.Megan's head shook frantically with widened eyes. She couldn't die just like that, not when she had just been given a second chance to love someone and be happy.But everything was moving so fast within her gaze.The sound of Elizabeth cocking her gun only added to the apprehension of the atmosphere.Elizabeth points the gun at megan, her eyes gleaming with a cold triumph and her lips closing into a slow vindictive smile. “I am not a fool Elizabeth”, Megan voice re
Megan's kept trailing Elizabeth as the police took her away without mercy. “You are a fucking bitch Megan. She could hear Elizabeth’s bitter voice echoing through the halls. This is not the end”. Her last words echoed, but Megan couldn't care less. This was her win and from now on, she would be happy.“Did she hurt you babe”. Alex immediately held her hands looking into her scared green ones. His eyes were rich with warmth making it appear as if it was flecked with hints of gold that caught the light in mesmerizing ways. “I am fine, Alex. Thank you. Thank you for everything you did for me. Thank you for giving me a chance to taste what love truly means”. Her voice that was clear at first had begun to get cracked.“No Megan, thank you”. He could see the pain in her eyes. The troubles that she had passed through in the past five years were hidden behind her green orb's eyes.“Thank you for melting this cold heart of mine and making me believe that I could love someone again”. He came c
A week later “After the evidence was brought to the court today, I shall now give my verdict”. The judge mentioned in a stern voice. Elizabeth, who was handcuffed, hoped that the decision was to her favour.Her father had promised to help her out of this situation together with officer gabby. But why was her father sitting so far away with a sad facial expression. His forehead was filled with wrinkles, and she sometimes caught a glimpse of him smacking his lips in dejection.Megan was at the front of the court together with Alex. They held each other closely like they were the only one who existed in the courtroom.“Is this some sort of love room?” Elizabeth scoffed loudly, looking at them with a gaze that seemed to cut through the tension-filled air.“After several in depth investigations. We came to a conclusion that”… but before the judge could continue Elizabeth interrupted.“Before you say anything, your honour. I would like to plead. I didn't commit any of this crime. I am bein
Mr. Leonard’s footsteps echoed softly as he descended the stairs, his eyes were dull as he scanned the room. Alex, Megan, Enzo, and Loyd stood, all eyes on him. Jake clung to his mother's side, his small hand gripping hers tightly."Jake," Leonard said softly, stepping forward with a smile. “You look so much like your mother.” Megan swallowed, her lips pressed tightly together, but she didn’t respond. Her grip on Jake’s hand tightened as Leonard reached out to touch the boy’s face. Jake smiled a little but moved behind his mother to hide. He knew Grandpa hurt mum, so he was also angry.Leonard’s hand dropped slowly, hurt. “Maybe I deserve that,” he murmured, sighing as he pulled back. Enzo cleared his throat as dinner was served and they all moved to the table, sitting in silence as the sound of cutlery clinking on dishes became the only noise.After a long pause, Leonard cleared his throat and looked up at his children. “I know I wasn’t a good father.”Loyd scoffed, muttering under
Two years later.Things may have seemed like they will never go back to normal for Megan, it was from one trouble to another bigger one. However it says with trouble comes ease.Megan stood in front of the crystal like window as she admired the light blue sky. How she wishes she could just stand here forever. As it reminded her of her better and bad Days.“Mummy, we are going to be late, daddy is waiting”. Little Jake, who was not so little anymore, bugged his mother with his sharp and piercing tone.Yes, Megan and Alex got married last year and they have been happy together. You might wonder what happened to Evelyn and Brittany. Well Evelyn was dead obviously.However Brittany's life never remained the same. She got depressed and started taking drugs, Mr Leonard still considered her his daughter so he sent her to rehab.“Oh, baby, Megan's face lit up with a smile. How she loved this little boy. Mummy is done already, let's go”. She grabbed onto his hands and moved towards the living
Life can be unpredictable right. Evelyn was still dazed, it felt as though her legs couldn't move.“No,no that is not true, she sniffed hard. It's not true. He died, I was winning and all of you were my puppets, everything was going according to my grand plan”. She kept emphasising on her words while pointing at Leonard.“Shut up woman, he interjected. I was never dead even if you did everything possible to get me out of the way. I heard the things you said to me while I was unconscious”.Evelyn gasped for the upteenth time. “How is this possible?” However instead of feeling remorse for her evil activities, she felt nothing but anger. It brewed slowly inside of her that it made her burst.“It's all your fucking fault. Did you think after how you betrayed me I will just let you into my life again. I accepted you because of your wealth and what you had to offer to our daughter”.“And I killed your wife to make sure nothing gets in my way again but your stupid witch of a daughter just ha
Brittany was feeling feverish, a feeling that what she was doing wasn't good. However her urge to have Alex just to herself was even greater.“It's too bad we have to get separated in this way, Meg”. Evelyn whispered to Megan as she finally cocked her gun and pointed it at her.“Please, Megan begged weakly. I will go far away with my son and never return”. Jake was the only person she could think of at that moment. She needed to keep him away from harm.“It's too late darling, Evelyn sucked her lips showing false sympathy. You should have disappeared when you had the chance”. She said with a glint in her eyes.“Don't worry meg, Brittany is going to take care of him and Alex”. Evelyn pointed the gun at Megan, this time with the intent of pulling the trigger. She has said all that needed to be said. While Brittany watched with mixed feelings.Everything seemed to be in slow motion to Megan. The moment felt like an eternity. The air grew thick and heavy, pressing against her chest, maki
The fear in Megan's heart was sharp, her pulse quickening as Evelyn stood over her, gun in hand, her expression twisted with a mixture of anger and satisfaction.Brittany stood nearby, her posture tense, her face a mask of conflicting emotions. Megan could see the hesitation in her sister’s eyes, a flicker of uncertainty that was an opposite of the cold malice she had shown earlier. But there was no time to dwell on it. Not with Evelyn so close, her finger poised on the trigger.“Stay out of this, Brittany,” Evelyn snapped, her voice hard and cold. “You’re just as stupid as Sonia was, and that’s why she’s dead.”Evelyn’s words cut through the air like a knife, and Megan’s heart lurched. She looked at the woman closely, wondering if she'd just misheard. Did she just admit to knowing about her mother's death? “What do you know about my mother's death? Megan asked with a shaky voice. She watched as Evelyn struggled to maintain her composure, her hand shaking slightly as she pressed the
consciousness crept back into her mind. The pounding in her head was unbearable, a dull ache that intensified when she tried to open her eyes. “Damn," she hissed as the migraine hit her in full force. She felt like her head was splitting in half and she couldn't even help it. “Where am I?" She muttered as she turned. She blinked several times, trying to adjust to the dim light filtering through the room. It was then that the cold, hard reality hit her—she was tied tightly to a chair, her wrists and ankles bound with rough rope that dug into her skin.Panic surged through her, and she instinctively began to struggle against her restraints. The chair creaked under the force of her movements, but the ropes held firm. “Who is here! Help me!" She called out, wiggling. Panicked, she glanced around her, the memories of what had just happened assailed her. Someone had grabbed her from behind and she'd passed out with the pungent smell forced in her face. She'd been drugged and now she was
Megan shivered, she had a bad feeling that her sister, Brittany had done something crazy. Why else was she calling just when she couldn't find her son and then she was laughing like a psychopath. “Brittany?" She called out over the phone, standing in the living room and shivering in her shoes. “I guess you're home by now, because I know that you wouldn't have answered my call otherwise," she said with a casual tone. “Why are you calling?" Megan asked carefully. She had a bad feeling in her guts that Brittany's call wasn't just a coincidence. “You know why I'm calling, Megan, don't play dumb with me," Brittany replied with a stiff tone. Megan sighed, taking deep breaths to steady herself. She was already trembling and she couldn't find her voice. "Brittany, what is this about?” She asked, already losing her patience. The anxiety was killing her and clearly Brittany was trying to mess with her head. How on earth did she know that she'd just gotten home? And what did that have to do
Brittany stood in the doorway, a forced smile plastered on her face as she gazed at her nephew, Jake. She had a sly smile on her face. How lucky she was, as if everything in nature was just sending her a sign. Her mother's plan would work out smoothly. “Hey little boy," she said with a sugary tone. But Jake just looked up from his painting and gazed at her blankly without saying a word, his eyes almost bored. “Come on, won't you say hello to your aunty?" Brittany tried again with an even more sweet voice but inwardly she was rolling her eyes. “No," Jake gave a single monotonous reply and didn't bother explaining himself, he just picked up his crayons and continued stroking each color across his white paper. Brittany sneered as he turned his face away, he was indeed a miniature version of his mother, Megan, with the same piercing blue eyes and mischievous grin. It was almost like he was staring at Megan's younger self right there on the couch. "Oh, Jake, I'm sure you don't really
Brittany paced back and forth in the fancy little cafe. She couldn't help the anxiety and anger that she felt. The thought of them made her nauseous. “She is in there with him as we speak!" She said and drummed her fingers on the table again. Evelyn had a very calm look on her face. But then that was typical. She wasn't easily ruffled, she always had a plan for everything and that was exactly why her daughter trusted her to find a solution. “Calm down, Brittany, anger never solved anything, what you need to do is plan," she advised. Brittany was exasperated, she hissed, “Calm? How can I possibly be calm right now?" She asked, spreading her arms. “She is with my husband and he won't even allow me see him, he told me to stay out of his way." Smiling, Evelyn waved it all off like it didn't matter. “Come on, Alex is just licking his wounds. You should allow him to do that.” She replied. "I don't know how long that will last for and frankly I don't wish to find out. All I know is that
