2021-09-10 15:21:08Something distracted Lyra during the entire party after she came back from the bathroom. Penelope and she were together when they were gone, and now she lingered around Lyra almost all the time as the evening continued, but there was a noticeable change in both of them. The way they both were gazing at one another from the corner of their eyes every few seconds, the shaky smile, frequent lips licking was weird and suspicious. It was clear they were hiding something important which I wanted to know but didn’t pressure.
Every time our bare skin came into contact, she went stiff or removed my hand from her body skillfully. She was uncomfortable, which didn’t sit well with me, given the fact a few hours ago we were in one another’s arms on the dance floor. Sometimes she would nudge a little, so my hands would fall from her hand, or sometimes simply she would discard her from my touch.
I had yet to understand this sudden change of be

Something was different in my house today. The instant I set my foot inside my house, a distinctive cloud sheltered me from all around me, and that unusual feeling bought a smile to my face. My living room felt a little altered to me. The change was nothing big but some pictures of Lyra and her family beside my pictures shelves. She placed different pictures here and there, and that brief touch made this living room ours.A warm food smell was coming from the kitchen, and that was another blow. As I walked towards the dining room, she set the table with plates, spoons, glass. Lyra was on her knee staring at the oven, so she didn’t see me arriving in the kitchen.“Hey.”“Oh, God” she jumped from her sitting position with a scream. “Oh, it’s you.” She put a big smile on her face and asked me, “How was your day?”“Never been better.” I took two steps towards her an

“This is your baby.” My OB-GYN, Layla, who was performing my ultrasonography, pointed to a white stone that was inside my belly. “You are ten days pregnant, and till now it’s going well.” She smiled at me and turned to the monitor again. “The baby looks at you, so do you. I don’t see anything to worry about.”A drop of tear slipped from the corner of my eyes seeing the little thing on the monitor, there was a human body inside me growing every day, living with me, moving, and one day he/she would come to this world.This was my baby, my child. I was the mother.Suddenly, I had the desire to do better in life, to live a good life, to make a good life for my child. I wanted to prepare a blissful life for my child, which I didn’t have. A wonderland, a cheerful place with love and laugh, everything I didn’t get my child would own every single one of them. With the security, love of bo

Nathan didn’t come home last night after he left without saying a word to me. When I was in the shower, getting ready for bed, Nathan was right in the room, but when I came back from the bathroom, he wasn’t in the bedroom or anywhere in the house. He didn’t reply when I texted him or received the calls. Later in the night, he messaged me saying he was in his parents’ house as some urgent work was coming.I assumed he would be here in the morning, but I woke up late and the note on the kitchen counter informed me he was here when I was enjoying my beauty sleep.The day was long and tiring and lonely. I was so used to my job that now staying home all day felt annoying to me. The morning sickness that I was experiencing because of the pregnancy was worse. This morning I was in the bathroom for half an hour, gagging near the washbasin. It felt like seasickness. The headache that came after I was done with my vomiting was somet

“She is dead.” Matero entered the study room of my parents’ house and announced the news.“Great, perfect,” I shouted.“Shit.” Luke kicked the chair where he was sitting a few seconds ago. Mom silently fell back on the settee and closed her eyes, and the man whose new house prison was waiting for him was nowhere to be found.“Where is he?” I asked with composure as much as I could provide this moment.“I don’t know.” Mom replied without opening her eyes.“Someone call him and tell him to come home, please.”Luke was already on the phone seeing his expression and cutting the calls and calling, again and again, which proved our great father wasn’t picking up the calls.The clock kept ticking, time flew away faster than yesterday. A moment the sun was in the sky shimmering the earth radiantly, the next moment the darkness cons

This was my second time in the Hall mansion. The atmosphere was similar to the first time I was here, but yet there was a difference. The tension in the air was evident. There was something else that I couldn’t point out until I met Amanda.When I came to the house, Nathan and Luke were in the study room with the force lawyers. They were inside for three hours, and they locked the gate from the inside the whole time. Mrs. Harrison, the housekeeper of the house, was in the kitchen, preparing dinner for everyone, even she was anxious about the current situation.It was a rough patch for the Hall family, of course, sort of make or break situation. I didn’t see Amanda. Mrs. Harrison told me she was in her room and refused to come out or eat anything. After I made sure Luka and Nathan had their dinner, I filled the tray with plates of food and made my way towards the second floor of the house to the master suite. Amanda and Richard’s

“Nathan, oh God.” Lyra moaned, and my lips sucked her clits roughly.We were at my parents’ house for our traditional Sunday night dinner. Oops, my mistake, it was my parents’ house when they were married. After the divorce, it was my mother’s house. This house belonged to my grandfather. According to his will, if ever my parents got divorced, my mother would be the owner of the house. As expected from a great grandfather.He was such an amazing person, compassionate, polite, down to earth. Sometimes it amazed me how my father was his son. There was zero similarity between them in personality, even in their thinking there was a gap as huge as the sky and the land. That was the reason for most of the fights when my grandfather was alive.My father was the only son; he was born after several miscarriages, and it understandably thrilled my grandparents to have a kid of their own. They lavished their kid with money with

It was Thursday morning. In the restaurant, we all began our work, the kitchen was busy preparing breakfast, the hall room was being swept, and Mrs. Margaret was busy running between the kitchen and the hall. She was on her toes for some unknown reason, without anything she was getting angry at other people even when everyone was doing outstandingly well.She instructed everyone on their duty, although all of us know our work perfectly well. Penny was out of the country with her family for a small vacation. If she were here, I might have asked her what processed her perfect manager. But since she wasn’t here, I had to cope with the mystery, which I didn’t like at all.As usual, I was in the corner of the room preparing lemonade and fresh orange juice for our breakfast buffet. This was the only thing our chef let me do, and I was very grateful to him. This changed when I yelled at Penny about Nathan in front of the entire staff the oth

“You are kidding me?” Penny shouted from the other side of the phone. “This can’t be true. Veronica didn’t do that.”“Well, my dear friend, it is the truth!” I exclaimed.“So Veronica threw herself on your fiancée. And you did nothing?” she dramatically sighed. “You should have at least slapped her. She deserved one.”Penny was someone I could trust with my secrets with my close eyes. She had been with me from high school, and we had a long history before becoming friends.Our relationship started as enemies. She was my bully with her girl group, and I was her victim. For the first time, she attacked me in the cafeteria; I didn’t really understand her motive. We both were two different people of two different worlds. How I did something wrong with her or how my behavior provoked her to do something with me was out of my indulgence.Later, in

Seven Years Later Today we celebrated five years of our marriage with our two children. Our daughter Josephine was seven years old while our son Joshua Hall was five years old. It was still hard to believe for me that we came this way. Whenever I thought about the past or the way we met and the way today things turned out to be, it surprised me. I walked the path with him; however, I couldn’t comprehend that this was us now. Nathan told a lie to save me from the crowd. “She is my fiancée” that night in the club seven years ago, which ended us tied in a relationship that was a lie. Our engagement was a pure lie from my side, at least at that time. I was eager to be with him for my own selfishness. He wasn’t the person that I heard from my family’s mouth. He was my saving grace. Every time I fell, he was there holding me, and that was what made me thankful to him. With time I got to feel for him, and, oh

Two years laterToday we said our vows. Everything went smoothly, just as we planned. It was in Spain where the pastor announced us as a man and woman, our friends and family with us as we celebrated our love, they cheered as I kissed my bride. Our two-year-old clapped with full force and smiled at us. Everyone was amused at our much-awaited wedding with the bride.Lyra was fuming. If today we were scheduled to exchange the vows, I swear, next year these people would have celebrated my death anniversary with tears in their eyes.This morning Lyra got the news. The big news, which was a piece of good news without any doubt. I knew she was over the moon with joy. However, the way she was expressing it with rolling eyes, I was positive the moment we locked in our suite room tonight, she would be jumping on me with a knife.“You don’t look happy?” I whispered to her ears as we moved along the

LyraOne year later,“Are you fucking kidding me?” I shrieked from the bathroom after seeing two pink lines on the fucking pregnancy stick that I was holding in my hand firmly.This had to be a dream. This can’t be true. I closed my eyes and opened again with hope and trust that the two lines would be turned in one somehow magically. But it didn’t.So I took out another stick, praying this time it would be negative. I peed on it, kept my prayer loud while waiting for the result to appear on the stick, and then, BINGO. There were two lines on this one too, positive. I was pregnant.Nathan did that to me. How could he do that to me? I told him to wear a condom so many times, but he didn’t listen to any of my warnings. How many minutes did it take to wear one? But that adamant man didn’t listen, and now here I was holding the one thing that I

“What is this?” Devin frowned as I placed the wedding card of mine and Nathan in front of him on the table.Devin was one of my two friends. I didn’t have many people in my life to relay from childhood; I spent my elementary and most of my high school without friends until Penny came along in the form of an enemy. She was the one who made my life easy and entertaining during those two years of my life.It was nice having someone to rely on, sharing thoughts and happiness with another female who could understand you.Devin and I shared a unique relationship than what I had with Penny. He was my guy friend who treated me with respect, was with me whenever I needed help or a friend in these past years.He was a great guy. I liked him both as a friend and as a human being. He was kind, humble, funny, handsome, a foodie, everything that a woman wanted in her man. He was that guy.But we couldn’t stretch the

Whenever I had a feeling about something strongly, it seemed as if I would always be right about that. It first happened when I was in high school. As I went to private school, a place which was filled with some little rotten rich human being’s little miniature, it wasn’t exactly an upright place where I wanted to be. Moral was nowhere to be found in that school, if anything mattered to those people, it was money, power, and status.Lucky for us, Luke and I stood at the top of that game. As a part of the Hall family, the oldest and powerful one in Chicago, those little pieces of shit didn’t dare to look at our eyes, let alone talk to us.Luke had friends. He was always popular among boys and girls where I was a loner, but I enjoyed that. I didn’t need those bullies anywhere near me, all of them, every single one of them, was a criminal in my eyes.As I spent time with my grandfather and mom in the office, I was awar

We officially started dating a week ago after the night in that café. It was nice. Nathan came to my house in the morning, we had our breakfast together before going to work. He dropped me at my restaurant, pressed a kiss on my lips before driving himself to his office. He returned to his office, once again, he was the CEO of the Hall Corporation just like before.We texted one another every free time we got, talked over the phone during our lunch, hence it was harmless to say we ate together. He picked me up from work around 6. It wasn’t my time to go home, but these days I was relying on my manager a little as he confirmed to me everything would be fine even if I wasn’t here.We would go to his condo and spend a cozy night. Watching movies together on his DVD, talking about the time we were separated from one another, cuddling on the sofa, falling asleep in his arms, and having crazy exotic food for dinner. Nathan’s che

I didn’t say a word after Nathan told me what happened in the hospital a year ago. When I woke up in the morning that time, it was Brian, Owen, Inessa, and Michale around me. Nathan was nowhere to be found.They discharged me from the hospital the next morning after the doctor confirmed I was out of danger and ready to go home. Brian and Inessa took me to their house. I was with them for a week before moving back to uncle Josh’s condo.Michale visited me every single day, sometimes before going to the office or sometimes after work. He would bring me flowers or my favorite food from my favorite restaurants. I didn’t think much of his actions that time as I wasn’t in my head that time.I was numb for a long time after coming home; I was listening to every word that was being said to me, but I couldn’t empathize with the meaning behind any of those words. It was the reason Inessa used to do all my works; she hel

“What do you want to talk about?” Lyra asked, breaking the long silence that was sandwiched between us from the moment we sat in this café with our coffee.I was a little earlier than Lyra, as I needed to prepare to talk to her. I was the one who asked for this meeting; thus, I wanted to be warmed up to talk to her about us. It took a lot from my side to have this conversation with her.When we met one another after such a long time, seeing her well-adjusted in her new life delighted me. She was doing what she loved; she established her own restaurants, which were enjoying outstanding success. She was a boss woman now, and I loved that.I loved seeing the new Lyra, the fearless one, shy but confident, naïve as well as guarded. I took pleasure in her success, yet I was melancholic with her. Mostly because of how fast she was moving forward in her personal life without me.I wanted to talk about us. If there wa

I would do other works that needed my attention through email, my casino manager Rocky was a trusted, worthy man. He was accomplished of handling the situation better than anyone; therefore, I knew things would be alright in Italy with little hinder.But the way everything was resolved in Chicago was scaring me to death. After the night where I almost choked Devin, or whatever that bastard's name was to death, I was feeling more out of control. The fear of losing Lyra was taking all my thinking systems at once.We spent a year apart from one another, didn’t see her, talk to her, or listen to her voice, we were living our life as two strangers. During that time, I didn’t go through this fucking fear that I was having right now.I knew she was in this world some
