" kindness is a human virtue, you do not need to applaud me for that," he smiled holding my hand.
" That is not what I mean, don't you know the meaning of sarcasm?" I cried.
" Let us just step out and discuss this tantrum you are throwing all over."
He led the way out and I glanced back to see the patient moving his fingers, sending a message.
" What I am trying to say is that I don't like the way you are putting up a..."
" I take this call," he cut me off.
I confirmed and saw his phone ringing.
" This isimportant, can we just finish what I was saying so you can go and.."
" Don't start, please, just don't start, I'm about to go underwater with all this stress and everything weighing down my shoulders, can you at least make things easier for me." He pleaded angrily.
" Hello.... yes........where..... how did that happen.....oh my God,"
The conversation was one sided and I couldn't get all the details as he mov

" Ma'am, calm down please," the brave detective who looked scared was now pleading. I got up from my seat and rushed to the door to catch sight of the drama. Such high level and dramatic woman were the type you met once and I wouldn't let that opportunity slide. As soon as my eyes caught sight of her I gasped. She was wearing high end heel, lips soaked with red lipstick and a woolen coat I had spotted Jason Derulo wearing. She passed the door was standing at with speed and elegance leaving behind a trail of perfume and bumping into the detective rudely, an act that I highly applauded her for, she could have my favorite hoodie for that if she wanted. She pushed open a door and someone made a move to stop her before she flung a string if abuses and curses to stop them. " He is here voluntarily, we are not arresting him," a voice greeted her warmly. " Well, he is

As I walked down the streets, I felt a different kind of feeling. After escaping the detective, Steve was safe and here I was not sure about tommorow or what it would bring, the uncertainties of the future.A couple was holding hands across the streets, the girl smiling sweetly as wind blew her black hair that was glittering under the moon.They stopped to kiss and I still followed the duo keenly like a YouTube fan. I imagined his kisses leaving her senseless with want and boneless with desire.Couldn't my life just be the same? Without angels blowing a trumpet and shouting time is up for being happy, now start being sad.My mother's death had bore a hole into my heart and it seemed my father's presence had plastered that hole over.Then why did it seem like I was still bleeding and hurting inside . Was I bipolar now?An awkward pain flushed through my gut down to my stomach and I sto

" Collateral damage!" I screamed. Out of the whole world, only four people knew what was going on and one of them was six feet underground. Whoever stole the diary, probably him my father to say, my biological father and I. He looked at me surprised. At this point I wasn't sure if it was staged or genuine. " Yeah, collateral damage, a lot of it," he replied. I felt the weird feeling come back and I was about to start shaking and breathing fast again. At this point it was right to question my sanity, was my sanity okay? The few people in my life who I now held onto like a life raft were not so steady anymore. " My wife going insane, my divorce, yeah my divorce, I act unaffected but deep down it's affecting me. And many more," he smiled. " Your aching dying love for me just died when you realized I'm flawed from head to toe?" I asked

I rushed to the scene holding Luke's hand trying to hide his face so he couldn't be exposed to the dirt and sin of the world before my eyes. He was too young for that. I expected a bleeding Mary, or someone down on the ground after the scream. What a disappointment. Why was I even disappointed. It just meant I was rotten inside and reveled when I saw blood and bad things happen. He had smashed the bottle on the wall breaking it into pieces and pouring the liquor it had inside all over the verandah. " Get off your high horse, me finding ways to generate warmth with you?" And a loud ugly roar followed added to by laughter. I covered Luke's ears sos it wouldn't be poisoned by the words. I had heard about families who fought. Families who had a drunk parent, a drunk father who would drink everyday and haul abuses or beat the children.

" Come on Luke, you can't do this to a girl who barely eats," I whispered in his ear and he replied by snoring loudly. " Wait hear, I'll get someone to carry you," I said. " Twaine," he grunted slowly, refusing to let go of my hand. "Teddy bear, just relax I'm coming back right now, nothing is going to eat you up," I whispered again ruffling his hair. " Before you go," he interrupted. " Let's just walk as you tell me, please," I tried to plead. " No, I'm sleeping," he groaned. He was a kid and probably wanted someone to baby him around. I couldn't blame him, he just lost his mama at such a young age, and with everything going on he needed a support system or someone to make him feel loved. " Can I ask you something, but please don't be mad?" " Okay , Luke ask me," I replied

" Sorry teddy bear," I whispered softly." Did you tell day about it?"" No, I would get punished again," he said afraid." Well, next time anything happens, you speak to daddy, you tell him what happened that same day or as soon as you see him okay?"" Yeah."" But you didn't answer my question?" He asked." Well, yeah, look at me."He looked into my eyes shyly feeling guilty." Why are you asking, or rather where did the question come from?" I inquired." Well, don't be mad, just that I heard Mary and some women talking about it. And they spoke for long saying you were not my sister," he answered." What else did they say," I asked." Well, I didn't stay longer, because I felt bad and wanted to cry that you are not my sister," he said." Oh poor Luke," I sighed" I want you to know that even if an asteroid full of candy and chocolates hit the earth right now and we all drowned in sweetne

I stood still waiting for his hand to hit home. It seemed like my body was the home of blows and I couldn't deny that.A person can get used to anything when given enough time. Right now I was used to all of it.His fist hit the wall behind me loudly as he cursed under his breath furiously.I didn't move or tremble, I was used to it all and if he had hit me I wouldn't have been scared.Nick came and held him back as he spoke fast in words I couldn't grasp." Just go upstairs to bed," he urged, " it's been a long day for everyone and clearly he is not taking it well, he needs time to grieve and many more," he then kissed my forehead as he urged me to go upstairs to bed.I nodded with teary eyes, trying to stay strong." Everyone get out of my house, all the illegal people out," he screamed.I looked back and Nick nodded telling me to go and

" Noo," I screamed furiously as I kicked my legs in vain. His eyes grew wild as he laughed and roared in an ugly voice. " Papa," I cried as his hands tightened and I began coughing in snore like sounds. He lifted my head and hit it back on the ground and I tried to scream in pain but no voice came out. I lifted my hands trying to hold on to something as I took my last few breaths on earth. I don't know how but I managed to hold his neck too but and atrte squeezing too. His monster monster strength was nothing compared to my humane little strength as my eyes bulged out if their sockets. Just as I gathered a little strength and began squeezing his neck a weight from nowhere pulled me from under him making me hit the ground. As I coughed in desperation holding my chest and sore throat, I heard someo
