I saw the genuine excitement on his face; he was really excited, and he had a large smile on his face.

“Hello Keana, How are you doing today?

“I am fine, uncle; we miss you. When are you coming back to the house? Did my mom scold you for buying so many toys for us?

I watched as Jaxson giggled a little. He was enjoying the conversation with Keana, and I was just sitting on the bed. There was nothing there for me to do; I was just watching Jaxson as he walked around the room, talking to Keana. If I didn’t know better, I would have thought he was talking to his high school crush.

“What should we do the next time we see?

“Let’s go to the park; my siblings and I love it there.

"Oh, really, that is lovely. I used to love the park when I was little. My dad would take me there, and we would play around until late at night.

“You stay out late at night? My mom hates it when Aunty Esther allows us to stay late at the park.

“Well, this time, you guys will be with me, so she won't yell when we com

    I was still standing by the door. I turned deaf to everything he was saying. I wasn't going to leave him in that state. At least now I know better. I now know that talking about his mom was his trigger. I know what triggers him to anger.“I’m sorry I talked about your mom; I was just concerned about your family." Thank you for your concern, but you have to leave now.“I will not leave you like this; barely two minutes after you left the dining room, you’ve gulped almost half of this whisky bottle.“Do you know the pain and grief that woman caused me?"It was in the past, Jaxson. Let it go, so you can heal. You’ll keep hurting yourself if you continue like this.“I am so broken, Jane; she turned me into this terrible person I am today; her attitude towards me changed my personality for the worse; I've hated women for the most part of my life; my mom made me see them as trash; and I've always believed that no woman is worthy of being loved. I cursed the day she bore me into this world.

    I didn't know who he was. I wanted to mind my business and walk towards the door, but he called me back, and I had to stop."Hey, sexy mama, How are you?“I’m fine; thanks for asking.I was trying to sound polite; I didn't know who he was, so I didn't want to give the impression that I was rude and snobbish.“I see you are one of Jaxson’s whores.“I beg your pardon.“You heard me correctly.“You must be out of your mind to think that I am one of those whores Jaxson moves around with.“How are you any different from them? You have such a banging body, and I'm sure that is why my cousin is so attracted to you; he likes fine women.“It's no use talking to you.I opened the door and left the house. I got outside and ordered a ride. Throughout my ride home, I was thinking about the sex I just had with Jaxson. One part of me feels like everything is gradually coming into place. I'm with the man I love, and he just found out about his kids, and he is excited about it. But the other part of m

    I felt like passing out when I heard my mother say those words to me. She was really worried and from the way she sounded, it looked like things were worse than the last time. I could hear the amber siren from a distance.“Calm down, mom. What happened? What happened?“I came back to the house and found him on the floor; he wasn't breathing Jane. I'm so scared; I don't know if he is still alive.I was almost shaking; my palms became sweaty. “The ambulance is here, Jane; I will call you back.The call ended before I could say anything. I didn't know what to do at this point; there was no way I could go there because we were not in the same city. I was pacing around the room, restless. It was almost as if my instinct was right; I knew something was about to go wrong somehow. My heart was greatly troubled when I left Jaxson’s place but I couldn't place what was wrong. I tried to call my mom back but she wasn't picking up her calls. This act alone raised my blood pressure, and I began t

    I was looking back at Keana until she faded out of sight. My heart was heavy. I wish I could take her along with me but I cannot because of her school. I know they miss their grandparents but I do not want my kids to meet their grandma. When she was grumbling, I took out my phone and called Sarah. She has been drifting away lately and she doesn't seem to notice it. It was unlike Sarah's to stay for days without reaching out to me. I didn't know what was happening, but I hoped that she was okay.The phone rang a few times before she finally picked up the call.“Hey, Sarah. How are you doing?“Hey girl, I'm fine. I know you’ve been wondering why I've been so distant lately.“Yes, I was wondering, what is happening? Are you alright?“I’m fine, Jane; it's just that I got busy. You know, I've been job hunting for a while now, and Daisy is becoming more problematic as the day goes by.“I can understand that; you know, my kids did the same thing to me; if not for you and my mom, I don't kno

    The trip to Ohio wasn't a long one; I dozed off on the plane and by the time I woke up, we were about to land. I was so happy that the journey was smooth, but when we landed, I was so tired that I slept off in a bad position and my neck was hurting; I couldn't turn my neck. I took my handbag and highlighted it on the plane. It was already midnight at this point. I picked up my suitcase and headed straight to the hospital. I got to the reception of the hospital by this time. I was already exhausted and tired. I met the nurse at the reception. She asked me for my father’s name and I told her. She directed me to the ward.I got to the ward and saw my mom sitting outside. She rested her head on the wall and tears rolled down my eyes when I saw her. She was looking really pale and tired. I hadn't seen my mom for months and the image I saw wasn't what I expected to see; my mom was looking older than her age. My father’s sickness must have taken a toll on her. As I approached my mother, I

    Tears rolled down my eyes. My mom held my arm and he pressed it firmly. “Mum, is this how bad the situation is? I didn't know; would I have brought you both back to New York? This is heartbreaking, mom. I was there to console my mom, but the moment I saw my dad, I couldn't hold back the tears that flowed freely from my face. I broke down in tears and I rested my head on my mom's shoulder.My mother held me close as I sobbed, letting me release the emotions that had been building up since I'd first heard the news about my father. I felt a little embarrassed to be crying like a child in front of her, but she just stroked my hair and let me cry. "It's okay, honey," she said, her voice soft and soothing. "It's normal to feel this way, child. Just let it all out." I took a few deep breaths and finally felt like I could speak again. "I'm so scared, Mom," I said, my voice trembling. I was trying to catch my breath. "I don't know that it was this bad; Dad barely has enough flesh to cover his

    Jaxson was so shocked to see my father; he stood still. He was shocked. I was puzzled; I didn't really know what was happening. I was trying to speak but I was stuttering.“You know my father? “Yes, he was my basketball coach in junior high school. I wanted to be a football player, but my father wanted me to follow another career path. "Wow, I said, still trying to process the revelation. "So you and my dad have known each other for a long time? Jaxson nodded. "Yes, since I was in middle school. He really helped me with my game, and I'll always be grateful to him for that.“Wow! I cannot believe that. “Is this the Jaxson I think he is?I knew where my mom was going with that question; I didn't even know her next line of action but I prayed it wasn't out of character.“Nice to meet you, Jaxson. I didn't know you were coming; I would have welcomed you properly.“You do not have to worry about that, Ma; my trip was impromptu; I had to fly in with my private jet at the last minute.

    I knew Jaxson was a sweet and gentle man but I didn't know he was also romantic. He took me to a five-star hotel and when we went into the room, it was decorated with rose petals scattered around the floor and on the bed. I didn't know when he got the time and chance to plan all of these; my trip was on a short notice; it was impromptu, and even at that, he was still able to come to be with me here despite his tight schedule.“Are you surprised? Don't be surprised, Jane. I told your mom that I was going to take care of you so here you go.“I don't know what to say, Jaxson. How were you able to pull off all of these in such a short period? I am still shocked.“Let’s just say I have a lot of handy people around; all I had to do was call and they delivered. All I want you to do right now is relax, go into the bathroom, take a good bath, and come back. Let’s have something to eat.I forgot to mention that the room smelled like fresh water; the room was dark and only the candle lights were

    Life, they say, is not a bed of roses. I have had my share of ups and downs. I had gone through a lot in life to raise my kids as a single mother and even when my children’s father showed up, it didn't get easy; rather, it became tougher. It wasn't a smooth ride but I am glad for all the challenges I was able to overcome. I was unconscious in the hospital for a month. Family members were scared, but they didn't give up on me because they knew I was a fighter. The first person I saw when my eyes were open was Sarah; she was right beside me praying when my eyes were open. I guess the heavens heard her prayers. But when my eyes opened, I wasn't pleased with the view I saw. I almost couldn't recognize her for the first few seconds because I was color blind. After a few seconds, I saw her face was brutalized; she was looking pale and malnourished. I taped her softly to let her know that I was awake. I was still very weak so I couldn't talk. She almost jumped out of her skin when she saw

    I slowly collapsed to the ground. I didn’t know what it felt like to be shot; I couldn’t explain how I felt at the moment. I was in pain, but I couldn’t say a word. It seemed like I was unconscious, and I was losing blood rapidly. Jaxson held me mid-air so I wouldn’t drop to the ground. He tried to chase the criminals, but they drove off. He didn't get to see a face but the camera out of the pharmacy picked up their faces. Jaxson wanted to pursue them, but he couldn’t leave me there. He panicked and he didn't know what to do. He pulled out his phone and called 911. The condoms Jaxson bought fell to the ground, and it wasn’t important at that moment. He rushed back to me and lifted my head up.“Jane, please talk to me; please say something. I was not responsive; I was far gone. I didn't know where I was but it felt like I was sleeping. I was unconscious and I was losing blood. The ambulance came accompanied by the police van; they placed me in the ambulance immediately and started

    “ Dad died many years ago. Mom. You had a lot of time to make amends but instead you drifted away like I’ve always remembered. So do not use that as an excuse.“ To come back, Jaxson, I tried to be close to you, but you already hated me; you were so far away. There was no mother-son connection anymore. You are no longer the son I used to know that your father had brainwashed you into thinking that I was the bad person when, in the real sense, he was the monster. “ Why didn’t you say anything, Mum? Why didn’t you tell me my father was abusing you?“ You never gave me a chance; your father brainwashed you into believing that I was a careless mother. Nothing I said would’ve made sense to you. Tears were rolling down Jaxson‘s face, and I wasn’t happy with that. I hated to see him that way. “ I’ve always thought you never loved me. I thought you hated me and I’ve carried that pain all through my entire life. I hated you for no reason; I didn’t know you were going through so much. “

    "You have grown so much more than the last time I remember. You were just my little boy a while ago, but now you’ve grown to be the father of three beautiful kids."Stay away from my family and me; I am not your son. Do not call me that. I tried to signal Jaxson to take things easy on his mother, but he wasn’t having it. He was still blowing hot. “ I am back here to make things right. I know I wasn’t the great mother you wished for, but I am here to make amends. Please give me the chance. Do not push me away."You lost the right to do that a long time ago. You do not even care about me, so stop pretending.“ Is that what you think, Jaxson?“ That is not just what I think; that is what you have shown me ever since I was a child. You never cared about me, and even when my father died, you moved on so quickly that you didn’t even care if I was hurting or not. You are such a wicked person and I do not want to associate myself with you. “ That is what you grew up to believe, but I actua

    Jane, you are an amazing woman, my life changed at the moment I met you. The first time I saw you on my rooftop at the party I organized. I know I found someone so rare and true.You looked so beautiful in your shimmer dress, that I couldn’t get my eyes off you all night. The long conversation we had through my soul and I knew from that very moment that you were going to leave there forever. I was with you in that room, and I didn’t want the moment to end, reconnecting with you at Bryan’s office was like a miracle, and every single day I wake up, I thank the sun, the moon, and the stars for bringing you my way. I have been fighting these feelings because I’ve been scared of commitment, but not anymore Jane. I want us to live as a happy family with our kids. There was a pause from Jaxson’s end, it took him a little over five seconds to continue from where he stopped. “ Jane Collins, please do me the. Will you be my wife please marry me. I could not explain the big smile that poppe

    I didn't know how Bryan and Jaxson settled the fight or how it ended but the only thing I could see when I woke up was that I was lying down on Jaxson’s bed. I was conscious of the fact that I was awake but my eyes were still closed. I opened my eyes gradually and saw Jaxson seated beside me. He fixed his gaze, and he struggled to break eye contact.He was so excited to see me awake and he held my hand as he gave me a faint smile. “ I was patiently waiting for you to wake up, Jane. I was so scared. I didn’t know when you were going to wake up; I almost took you to the hospital. It was after Jaxson spoke that I realized that my head was banging. I used my arms to hold my head firmly. “ Here, something for your headache. You will feel better once you take the painkillers.Jaxson handed me some painkillers and I took them with some warm water. At that point, I still couldn’t recall what had happened. I left you on the bed, trying to remember everything that happened. My brain was bla

    I was so confused, my heart started beating fast, and I didn't know what to do at that point. Everyone fixed their gaze on me and it was as if I were the villain in Bryan’s love story. I was sitting but the chair became uncomfortable the moment Bryan mentioned my name. Jaxson started rubbing his arms and I could tell that he was not in a good mood. “I dare you to embarrass me in front of everyone, Bryan? How dare you? All I've ever done is in your best interest. I’ve made sacrifices to protect you. I chose a good bride for you from a wealthy family; I chose her from a family with prestige and yet you want to trade that for a single mother of three? Do you want to drag this family name into the mud? I will not sit back and watch you crumble everything your father has worked hard for in the name of your silly infatuation. “It is not an infatuation, Mom; I love Jane.My seat was burning, and I was slowly dragging my butt away from the chair. I was uncomfortable, and I wanted to leave.

    Bryan was acting weird when he saw us together. Jaxson gave him a hug, but he kept looking at me. He fixed his gaze on me and it made me feel uncomfortable. I didn’t know I was going through mine, but I knew for sure from the way he was looking at me. He wished I was the one he was getting married to instead.I simply put up a smile so I wouldn’t come across as rude. At this point, the bright father walked her down the aisle and took her up to meet her soon-to-be husband after they took their vows. Jaxson was smiling sheepishly; he was so happy. His friend was finally settling down, and he was going to start a family. The joy on Bryan’s mother's face was everything; she was the happiest. Bryan wasn’t half as happy as she was. Her smile was palpable, and everyone could see it. The bride was very happy. She was smiling at each step of the way she walked, and even though I didn’t like her, I couldn’t stop admiring her outfit and her aura. She looked so beautiful, and I almost couldn’t r

    It was a cool and breezy day. I was seated by the side of the window, sipping my dark coffee, and I was enjoying the view of New York City. This was the feeling I usually get from my new home, the house Jaxson bought for me, but this time I was in his house. I was in a secret house, the one he took me to the last time. It has been three months since Keith was kidnapped; he has gone through a series of therapies, and it is safe to say that my son is doing well. I woke up happy that day because the universe was finally giving me peace, thanks to gradually falling into pleasant places for me and my family. My dad’s health was improving as the day went by, and I was so happy to find out that he was able to walk out on his own, even though it was a short distance, but he was able to walk with his legs again. Above all of this, it has been three months without Sarah in my life. It hasn’t been easy but with the help of Jaxson, I was pulling through every day. Most days I spend my nights c
