Elena POV.
( 3years later)
“ Darling, wake up.” I call out to Miles but he is not about to woke up.
“Let me sleep a little more ” he groans as he tosses in the bed.
“ Oh my goodness Miles we have only an hour to the event and yet we have not gotten ready ” I complain but he will not get up. That is Miles when it comes to his sleep. He used to laugh at me that I sleep a lot but it is like things turned around.
“ I think I should call the events manager to tell him that the guest of honour will not come since he is still sleeping. ” I say sarcastically . That is all he needs and the next thing I know is him getting out if bed.
He moves coming next to where I am getting ready ready from in the mirror .
“ wow! I have such a gorgeous wife ” he says rapping his hands around my waist and then resting his chin on my shoulder.
“ come one , you are distracting me. I need t
Elena pov"Get up you bitch " I am woken from sleep by the usual way that my mom does. It is hardly even three hours that I have slept and I am already up. That is my life. I even think that four hours are to many for me. Most cases I go sleep gkr about two hours. Every one will be wondering how I manage to cope with this. The thing is I my self can't tell as well .Things simply just happen the way they want.I at first remain in bed for about two more minutes with hope that maybe she has gone back to her bed since it is only three in the morning."You bitch!" She shouts and then it is followed by a hot punch right onto my head which drives me staggering falling on to the floor just at her foot."Stop your nosense and stand up Already. The cows need to be fed and you need to milk the cows before you give the poultry feeds while collecting the eggs for sell. " she said making me realise I have to stand up quickly. I can feel my head spinning a bit bu
Elena pov"Vince , I have told you several times to stop doing this" I tell him in a whisper not wanting any other person to perhaps hear us."Come on Elena , I am just tired of all this. Why are you treated Like this ?" He says angrily trying as much as he can to control his anger. He has always confronted each person who tries to treat me bad. He is my saviour and at the same time best friend. Whenever he is around, I feel abit protected and he happens to be my parent's favorite child. They love him so much." I know, but you just need to disappear before any one can find you here " I go on to tell him in a whisper as I collect the last eggs. Vince being vince, he never goes by what I tell him. He always insists and in the end he doesn't go away even if I to send him off. I then see that all my attempts are rather fruitless so the best thing is leave him and go back to doing my work. We together collect the remaining eggs putting them into the baskets ca
Elena povWith the way he was smiling at me. It clearly shown me that trouble and more trouble is coming my way. I panickingly strated picking up the can my hands shivering due to the too much fear that is in me. I am so sacred about what will happen soon. I don't know what to do" Am sorry, Lance please let's just keep this . Please don't tell anything " I went to say with a panic stricken voice." Calm down beautiful, you know I don't bite...though some times I do bite " he says emphasising the last part." Please just don't tell it to any one." I go on to plead with him." You know me , I will definitely keep it " he says extending to where I am. It is about six and my family will not be up until another two hours. But I wonder where Lance goes to every morning since I get him every morning around the same time." But you have to do something small for Me of you want me to keep quiet" he says whispering into my ear .
Elena povI could hear noises Coming through but I could not tell what exactly they were . I tried opening my eyes several times to see what was taking place but I just could not.I felt so exhausted."She is so evil""She is a devils incarnate"." I have always told you to get rid of her " I still could hear the voices biy my eyes are so exhausted and don't feel like opening. I feel coldness all over me. Am I dead? I wonder. That could be great if I was dead. That could mean that I am now free and will not have anyone torturing mW." wake up you bitch !" Then some one kicked me so hard in the rids making me cry out due to the sharp pain that I feel. Wait , what is wrong with me? When I try to stand up, I just can't I feel my whole body "broken" . I feel so much pain. I open my eyes and before me is my my mom, sister Alexis and Lance.When I look at him, memories of what happened last night come back to me. Lance told me to meet h
Elena pov.I didn't know whether to cry or smile after reading the letter. I had so much mixed feelings. . I was happy that he could come back and see me. I was sad that he left without me giving him a hug. He is the only hope that I have in life. That is why every thing about him and even the smallest bit of it , I care for it so much.But then I was optimistic since I knew that he could come back and I will be finally out of this . I stood up slowly trying not to hurt my body. I should have every thing finished before they come back. With the support of the wall, I move slowly heading to the kitchen to prepare dinner. I am so haungry since I have not yet eaten anything since yesterday. I can use this time to eat some thing before they come back or else .About thirty minutes into my cooking, I hear some one open the front door which tells me that their is some one who has entered the house. I wait to see who ever has come in. That is when I feel that fam
Elena Pov.I sat on Vince's bed not knowing what exactly to do or think any more. I have been sitting here for the last number of hours since I found out about the death of Vincent. I didn't give a damn any more about other people in the house could say. Even if it meant insulting me like they usually do, I don't care any more.I was holding a photo of Vincent that is always on the side of his bed. With that smile that never left his face. The most jolly person that I know.I cannot help but imagine about how my Vincent perished in that damn accident. It is said the cab he was riding in got into an accident that didn't leave him( Vincent ) and the driver . He was only a few meters to the hospital where he had done his internship.How I wish I was there to give him one more hug..at least the last hug until we meet again. How could I not. If it was not for that Lance who tried to rape me , he could perhaps be alive. Tears roll down my eyes as I
Elena pov.Have you ever lost some one that you love most in your life? Have you ever lost some one that was the only hope that you have in your life ? Those eyes ho have been in such a situation can relate under which situation that I am in right now. You feel like you equally want to die and get out of this world once and for all.The next few days after the death of Vincent were the hardest that I have ever experienced in my whole life. I was just a walking zombie. Mom had shifted all her depression of losing her favorite son towards me who was already depressed my self.She was so hard on Me. She abuses me every time. Reminding me that I am useless in the world and she wishes it was me who was dead instead of her son. Yes, she was depressed but how could she hope that maybe it was me who had died instead of her son. I used to shed tears of how every one treats me in addition to losing my only hope that I had in my life." You u
Elena pov. I could feel like I was tearing out. Everything felt so disgusting. He was using the whole force onto me.I don't know but it felt like he was punishing me. I would feel his sweat and then I felt his liquid flowing into me and that is the last I knew before I lost my consciousness. I would see Vincent beckoning me-wait then I saw another Vincent , one was beckoning me to go near him while the other was telling me to go way. I looked so confused one telling me to go near while the other was pushing me away. It was losing all the energy that I had left. I tried moving from side to side each one of them pulling me from one side ..then I could hear some voices . I tried as much as I could to open my eyes but it was so hard for me .Then I started feeling general body weakness. My whole body was hurting me. Slowly by slowly the voices begin reducing. Then I finally opened my eyes .This place seemed so new. I have never seen this place in my whole life.

Elena povI knew Miles would react in such a manner. This is how he has always told me. He said that he would not leave all those who tortured me.“ I have asked you a damn question?" He repeats the question this time more furious than the first time.“ you need to calm down. ” I whisper to him as I take his hand into mine to comfort him.“ No Elena'These people have to pay for giving you the most terrific life growing up” he says looking more seriously each time.“ I know I have done a lot, but I want to tell the fact that I regret every bit of it .It is like the death of my children and husband has been a way of phishing us by God for all that we have done to her” she says pointing at me .“ But do you even have the slightest idea about how you people abused her in all aspects of life. You made her life a living heal. My heart bleeds for her every time that I remember the tortur
Elena POV“ I don't want to wake up ” I groan as I hear Miles wakes me up.“ No no , you need to wake up. ” he says not going away. This is how he has been for the last two weeks since mom died. He comes every evening and spends the night with me.“ I just need to sleep more after all I am not going to work.” I say putting the blanket over my head“ Don't forget you have to go to school. You are having your exams this week.” he says and that is when I remember.“ Shit!” I get out of my bed in a panic mood . I had forgotten about that already. Even if I lost my mom, school didn't stop. Miles insisted that I stop working so that I can get to my right mood.Miles insisted that I live with him and of course I didn't allow that. I want things to be done in the right way.“ I thought you were still enjoying your sleep ” he says looking at m
Elena pov“ where am I ?” I ask as I try to open my eyes but I feel so weak. However I finally manage to open my eyes. Damn it! I am a hospital. How did I get here? I wonder as I try to sit up but I am so weak.“ I can do that ” I hear a familiar voice making me look up. There is Naomi sitting on the sit in the corner of the ward.“ what am I doing here ?” I ask curiously as she tries to help me sit with a pillow support me on my back.“ How did I get here? ” I ask losing the cool that I have since she is not answering me at all.“ why are you not saying anything ” I say as I shake her so impatient.“ Just calm down, you are not okay. You don't need to get so restless ” she says as she sits next to me.“ why is it that I don't remember anything that happened and how I got here ” I say crying as tears flow down my cheeks.“ Just relax
Elena POVI hardly had any sleep last night. My mind can't help but think about that encounter with Alexis. Why did she have to come in that damn place. Wasnt there enough other places where she would have gone to have her meal. Why did she have to come in the same place as me. I have tried all possible ways the last several months to forget all that happened to me with my real family who we're meant to protect me but instead they did otherwiseI have gone for several therapy sessions in the past and they have indeed helped me. I have begun moving on and the this happens. What did I really do to deserve this.I try as much as I can to sleep since the flowing day is a Monday and it is always the busiest day of the week with so many patients. I think people get so many problems over the weekend due to the too much partying.I wake up a bit early don't wanting to disturb mom. I sit beside her on the bed admiring the woman before me. She loves so peaceful whe
Elena POVFrom the time we had that talk at the local restaurant, I swear I grew more stronger and ready to fight for what we had been the two of us. It is now two weeks since then . From that day, I have not seen or talked to Juliana. I don't know if her son talked to her . I remember she had promised to make my life a living hell so that I can go away.However it is strange since she has not talked to me again. I do my work at the hospital during the day and go for my studies in the evening. It is hectic but it is moving on well so far good for me.“ maybe you should quite work and concentrate on your studies.” mom says to me one evening when she sees me streesed one evening.“ Come in mom, are you really serious with what you are saying. How are we going to be able to pay the bails.”i reply.“ Oh, I had forgotten about that already. You know I am just concerned about you. You hardly have any sleep. Maybe I should al
Miles POVI was the happiest man as she cuddled in my arms in the late hours of the night. I just wanted us to be like this for ever. For sure I didn't know how she would be like after how mom treated her. It is clear she never liked her and she didn't dare hide it. Throughout the dinner mom did all she did and her plan was to humiliate Elena..I would see all that she did. I had nothing to do since she is my my mother and the other is a girl that I love so much. All that I want is for them to get along but not to have disagreements.The moment I got from taking Ashley, there was only one thing that was on my mind. It was to go and see how Elena was doing after the humiliation from mom.Am so happy things went on as wanted them to go. We talked heart to heart .Not including any one in our talk but just the two of us. No one else mattered at the momentWhen I talked about marriage and having kids . I know she partly thought that I was joking b
Elena POVI looked on as Ingrid told me the little she knew about Juliana. But even before her telling me anything, I already got to know her more than I can even imagine.But why would a mother even interfere in their children's life partners. More so when that child is old enough to know what to do.“ Elena, don't be weak. I can see that the two if you love each other. Go ahead and fight for your love ” she teslls me one more time and then she moves out back to the dinner so that we are not suspected at all .I know the kind of life that I am going through is not the best so far bit I cannot help but fight for the only man that I have ever loved .I decide to dry my face so that when I go back no one will suspect that I have been crying all the time.“ where have you been ?” Juliana asks as soon as I seat down . Damn it ! Is this woman being rational at all. Am I supposed to be watched as if I were a young chi
Elena POV“ You don't need to tight mark you. I am all yours .” Miles says with a smile as we get in the house .How I wish he knes why I am like this. Then he would not be making any jokes at such a time.“ I want to be certain.”i say deciding to play a long with him. We then get into the house .If I was saying that outside was gorgeous, it is like I was mistaken. Inside is something else.Everything is so sophiscated and luxurious. For sure given the kind of Riches that my parents had, it is not even a quarter to what I see here. For one time I don't blame the woman for being insecure with his son. If just the house has all this, then all the investments that they have..They are stinking rich if i can say.“ Mom, dad.” Miles says as we sink deep into the living room my heart beginning to race even more at the thought that they are coming out very soon.“ My son.” I hear his mother say fro
