View MoreRodriguez noticed his wife staring at him and decided to scold her for not helping."You know honey, you always insist on doing everything but today, you don't seem to want to help. Are you alright?"She was stunned."I'm alright. I just don't see the need to go with them. We can go on our own.""Nonsense. You hardly relate with anyone, I'm doing this for you.""Are you sure or is it something else?" She spilled before she could think straight."Ok. What's wrong?" Rodriguez demanded, getting closer to her.She could barely breathe seeing him so close to her. Her self defense instinct went haywire.She almost compulsively took out the knife she has hidden on her to protect herself.She hadn't slept last night, not with the fear that he would kill someone and when she did, the terrible nightmares interfered."Maybe you shouldn't go." Rodriguez put in."I'm going!" She almost yelled.She had to keep a w
Nathan left the doorway he had leaned on to earlier and approached Adriana.He had given her enough time to grieve.The cops had already left and all that was left of the murder was the bloody words on the floor."What do you want to do now?" Nathan asked a frozen Adriana."I don't know." She answered and looked around the house that took her in. The only place she could call home for three years and now that she knew she was not alone, This happened. Fate would not just stop fucking with her.She remembered the words her late mother had engraved to the ground with her own blood.Ro!What could it mean?"Are you ok?" Nathan inquired.Was she ok? Why would he even asked that... Someone she knew just died and there was a high chance she could have if she hadn't gone with him.She couldn't blame him, he must feel awkward from the situation and sensing his relationship with the Contreras, it was
She followed him closely, mad on his trail despite hiring a cab."Drive faster!" She nudged the old man.The man nodded and stepped on it.The rough road made her hold on to her swollen stomach feeling each bump the car suffered affect her aching back and the baby inside.Soon, they arrived at a village.She couldn't understand what her husband planned to do here but she had a gut feeling, evil looked close by.She instructed the driver to stop when she saw her suspect turn around in their direction, his eyes were bloodshot, they had no mercy.He flimsily checked around even peering in her direction but as the good Lord would have it, he dis not approach the vehicle that had been following him for minutes.She saw her husband pay a bulge in his back pocket and proceed to where he was headed.That was the gun,She could swear.Maybe she was right, Rod was in some kind of trouble. She had to know what
Fuck! Pick up the phone you bastard!Rodriguez tried Nathan again only to be cut off again.What could he do now?, He thought.The Contreras had disappointed him and now Nathan was spending time with that girl.If Adriana managed to get just a fragment of who she was, she would question the Contreras and there was no way his name would not be given out.Shit! Why was this happening to him?His enemies had tripled. If only he has put an end to Adriana the time he met her.Nathan would surely be trying to make her remember her past but the problem was where they would be.Rodriguez had sixty percent certainty that he would take her back to their family.Of course, Rodriguez snapped his fingers finally getting his shit together.Now all that was left was to send Chale spying while he went to have a talk with the Contreras.He pulled up a gun from his drawer, the cold metal made him
"Hello, Dr. Suarez."Mrs Romero wasn't expecting a call from Dr. Suarez this earlyThere could only be one reason why he was calling, For her, this was the moment of truth, she was ready for anything."It's about the DNA results."Mrs Romero remembered to take deep breaths in case it didn't come out as she had expected."I don't believe this but Ema shares your DNA."Mrs Romero choked on her own saliva.This was definitely not what she had imagined."Dr Suarez... Ema... is Adriana?""Yes." The man replied."Excuse me." Mrs Romero said before putting the call on hold and running around the room like she was on fire."She's alive!"Her newfound joy took the wrong turn when she remembered that Ema wasn't in the hospital anymore.She vividly remembered watching her go with the wrong people.It shattered every good moment she had planned to share with the world - her workers.She retu
"What will I tell father," Ema thought as she walked back to the reception.She had been so rash that she accepted to go on a date with Nathan.It was stupid but yes, she complied.Seeing her father in such a foul mood at the reception made things a whole lot awful go her."Dad..." She made her presence known to him."Ema, why did you run off like that? Are you ok?" Mr Contreras demanded, examining he like he was sure she had been molested in his office.The punk's lips was a devilish temptation and the sparks she felt when their body met was alarming, apart from that, Ema knew she was untainted."I'm fine Dad.""So what did he tell you?""You got your job back."She expected her father to be shocked or doubtful but instead, he was angry."What! How!""I don't understand you Dad, Didn't you want the job back?""Ema, I want you to tell me the truth and now, What did he do? Did he say anything?""No...
Gasps and look of pure shock was all Nathan said as he walked up to his office.The surprised looks of his workers were funny at first but with him receiving it everywhere, it was becoming disturbing.It was almost like no one wanted him back.He wasn't the most social but at least they could pretend to care.Nathan got over their stares, focused on getting to his office.He adjusted his black three-piece suit and unlocked the knob to his office.The place was just like how it left itExcept for the position of his office chair.Nathan wasn't a fan of that check so he tried to change it himself.At that moment, someone knocked on the door before opening,A woman in her mid-twenties walked in, caramel-skinned and very lanky, the model body structure."Good morning Mr. Tocci, I'm the new secretary" she informed in a professional voice."Good. I'd like to have an appointment with the top workers in t
So now she's awake.Nathan watched Ema stretch out her hands and run her eyes before she opened them to reveal the darkest chestnut brown orbs.This kind of beauty only belonged to his wife. If she was truly a lookalike, they couldn't share exactly the same features."Where am I?" Ema mumbled, shocked to see herself in the hospital."The hospital. Isn't it obvious?"Ema turned to see who was talking."Nathan…""I see you know my name. Do you like it?"Nathan got up the bed he was in and approached her.Ema could feel her breath slipping away when he got too close for comfort.He was so close to her face that she could see his peach soft lips were natural."You must be Ema, Ema Contreras," Nathan noted.Ema ran her hands her short hair just to get the awkwardness of the situation out of her mind.What she didn't understand was why he was talking different. His stance had even changed. She suspected
Nathan flinched feeling a sting in his wrist. He forced his tired lids opened. His eyes burned not used to the light.The first question to pop into his mind was 'where was he?'He sat up and his arm stung again. He turned and ripped away the needle that caused the pain.He could now make out that he was in a hospital but he couldn't make out why.I survived.Nathan remembered being shot. He checked the spot to see the bullet wound.It was odd to just see a scar in place of what was supposed to be a fresh wound.He let his finger linger around the scar wondering why it healed so fast.He got out of his bed trying to stretch and ponder on what was happening.Someone at the left whimpered, like they were in pain.He turned to where the noise came from."Adriana!"He rushed to her bedside.Her face was squeezed and she continued to breathe heavily.It had to be a nightmare."Nathan!"
"When will you give me a grandson Nathan?" Nathan listened while his mother brought that subject again.What could he do to satisfy this woman?His mother was a tall woman in her early fifties and with a mouth of a teenager. She could never just stop babbling. Nathan could hardly believe he was spawned by the woman. Her hair was dirty blonde with faint streaks of grey bit she did a good job hiding them with hair treatments. Her skin was porcelain white almost making her as white as a corpse and it had fine lines to adorn her transition into old age. She was not welcoming it well, however.She masked her face in Mary Kay in hopes to defy nature and it was a failing battle.He, on the other hand, had picked most of his features from hi...
