Unrequited Love ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE
Diane was becoming pretty excited at the prospect of having a baby. Something good and interesting was finally happening in her life and she just couldn't wait to have it. Three days after her discuss with Malvika, she drove her - Malvika – to the hospital for a scan. According to her, she wanted to be sure that the baby was in perfect condition and most importantly, she wanted to know the gender of the baby. Was it a boy or the girl. So, she drove Malvika to the hospital despite Malvika's protests of course. She wanted to ask Nicholas to come with her but Malvika thought that would be a little bit weird, so, she didn't. Malvika and Diane sat in the doctor's office, both excited and eager. They couldn't wait to hear what the doctor had to say. Diane was the most excited. She kept squeezing Malvika's arm to calm herself down. "Diane, stop," Malvika muttered. Diane grinned at her sheepishly and said sorry. By the time the doctor walked in and did the scan, Diane was practically hyperv

Jenny slouched on the couch, her lower body positioned by the edge of the couch. There was a table beside her and on the table was a bottle of whiskey with an half filled glass. She had in her hand a cigarette. She glanced on the couch across her where Ashley laid on, her eyes closed. As if Ashley could feel her stare, she opened her eyes and their gazes met. They stared at each other for a while until Ashley's lips curved into an half smile. "What?" She asked in a wondering tone. Jenny merely shook her head, smoking her cigarette. "Nothing," she said. This was an habit of them sometimes. To be passed out on the couch in Jenny's house, doing nothing but drinking, smoking and probably talking or sleeping. In search of a topic to talk about, Jenny said, "Malvika is back."Ashley's eyebrows shot up. "Back in New York?" she asked, a little bit surprised. "Yes," Jenny answered, glad that she was interested in the gist. "She called me to tell me. We even met. She looks very different now

Diane stood by the dressing mirror, slowly peeling off her earrings. As she did so, the door opened and from the reflection on the mirror, she could see Nicholas walk in. A smile graced her face as he walked towards her and snaked his arms around her. "Hey," he whispered in her ear, giving her a kiss on the temple. "Hey," Diane murmured still smiling. "You feeling sleepy already?" He asked, still holding her by her waist and now rocking her slowly from side to side. "No. Why?""I was thinking we could go outside tonight and watch the stars," he said in a soft voice. "That will be nice," Diane answered slowly. She turned around in his arms, placing both of her hands on his shoulders. "Let's do it," she said. Releasing her waist, her slid his arms around her and guided her out of the room to the garden at the back of the house. The house was quiet so, no one obviously knew when they left or what was going on and they preferred it that way. He led her into the garden, and Diane cou
Unrequited Love ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHT
Jenny knocked on the door patiently. Although, her face looked sad, her insides were dancing for joy. She was finally going to have a hold over Jayden, even if it would be for a short period of time. She would finally get what she wanted. She forced herself to continue looking somber as the door was thrown open and Jayden's face appeared. "Hey," she muttered. "Jenny! You didn't tell me you were coming today!" Jayden said, his eyes wide in surprise. Jenny frowned. "I literally called you to tell you we have something important to talk about. In fact, when I suggested we meet at your house, you agreed!""Oh.... I can't remember that. Sorry." He opened the door wider. "Come in," he said, turning to walk back to the living room. "Close the door behind you," he instructed as he walked away. Jenny did as he said an followed him, still frowning. "Do you ever listen to me when I talk to you?" she wondered, sounding pissed off. "Sorry. There has just been a lot on my mind lately," he told
Unrequited Love ONE HUNDRED AND NINE
Jenny sat in her car, a worried look on her face as she rubbed her forehead tiredly. She scrolled through her phone, clicking on Ashley's number, dialing it and placing the phone close to her ear. She willed Ashley to pick up. After three rings, Ashley answered the call. "Jenny!" she said. "How are you?""Hey Ash. I've been trying to reach you since yesterday night.""Oh. What's up?""I have a problem," she said. "I went to Jayden's house last night to tell him I was pregnant.""Did he believe it?" Ashley asked. "I don't even understand. At first, he was so bothered. He even suggested that if I didn't want the baby, I can do anything I want with it," Jenny said. "He said that?!" Ashley exclaimed. "Oh wow. That's a......""Blow in my face?" Jenny completed. "Yes, it certainly was. I was so offended. I'm sure if it was Diane, he would not hesitate to accept her. Ugh.""So, what did you do?""I tried to convince him that it was true. He said he wasn't ready to marry or be a father.""
Unrequited Love ONE HUNDRED AND TEN
Drawing in a deep breath, Jenny pushed the door to her car open and climbed out. She adjusted her skirt, dragging the hems down as she looked up at the hospital. She drew in a shaky breath. She couldn't believe that it would come to this. She thought Jayden would just accept her word for it. But he didn't do that. No. Instead, he insisted that she come to the hospital for a check up. Her heart was thumping loudly in her chest. If Jayden ever found out that she lied to him, he would hate her forever and she couldn't bear for that to happen. She loved him, maybe a little too much. Why was he so hard for him to love her back? She asked herself as she walked into the hospital. With her heart beating loudly in her chest, she looked around and her eyes landed on Jayden. He looked like he was on a phone call. He sighted her and frowned a bit. She started walking towards him. "Hey," she said in a surprisingly subdued tone. He snapped his phone shut and slipped it into his pocket. "You are
Unrequited Love ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN
Saturday evening and Diane was nearly fainting from exhaustion. She was walking around the living room, barking orders at the servants and trying to make the decorations perfect. Two of the men servants had climbed a table, hanging a banner that boldly read, "CONGRATULATIONS, IT'S A BOY." Some of the servants were busy dusting chairs and tables. Yeah, you guessed right. It was the baby shower today and Diane was literally obsessing over it. Every thing had to be perfect. Every thing had to be spick and span. She couldn't leave any stone unturned. It didn't matter that only the family was going to attend. She still wanted it to be perfect. She turned around. "Varla!" she called one of the servants, who immediately came running to her. "Where is the cake?" she demanded. "Oh, it's..... it's will soon be done," Varla stammered, taking a step backwards. Diane was usually a nice person but sometimes she was under stress or pressure , she usually snapped. Diane frowned, taking note of
Unrequited Love ONE HUNDRED AND TWELVE
By six o'clock in the evening, everyone – Diane, Natasha, Nicholas, Jenny, Paul, Alyssa, Mark, Grace and Olivia, Haley, Sharon and Malvika were gathered around. Malvika was seated on the couch, in between Diane and Nicholas who both had inviting smiles on their faces. Everyone was presenting their gift and it was so heartwarming. Mark and Grace and bought her a baby cot. Haley and Sharon had both contributed money to get her a baby monitor. Other gifts included some baby boys clothes, feeders, pram and so on. Of course, these people didn't yet know that Malvika was planning to pass the baby on to Diane. All through the event, Jenny kept staring at Malvika, a confused look on her face. Why were they throwing a baby shower? Was Diane aware that Nicholas's was the father of the baby? She was beginning to suspect that Malvika didn't tell the truth of the story to Diane. She glanced at Malvika, hoping to catch her gaze but it seemed like Malvika was purposely ignoring her. So, she decided

Unrequited Love EPILOGUE
Diane stood in front of the bathroom mirror, her heart thumping wildly, her hands shaking as she unwrapped the pregnancy test packet. She lowered herself into the toilet seat, raising up her dress and pulling down her panties. Closing her eyes, she placed the pregnancy test instrument beneath and let the urine flow on it and into the toilet. Then, she placed it back on the counter and waited. Just a year ago, and some months after Diane’s kidnap, Malvika delivered her baby boy in an hospital and just as she had promised, she gave that baby to Diane and Nicholas. The baby was named Cameron Alan Langston. Some months after birthing her child, Malvika left as she had said she would and took off for Florida to continue her life despite pleas from her sisters – Natasha and Diane. Diane had been raising Cam for a year and she was enjoying every moment of it. But recently she had begun to feel feverish – vomiting all over the house. No food could stay in her belly. At first she thought it wa
Unrequited Love ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY ONE
A slight sound of movement outside made Diane open her eyes. The entire room was still dark as there was no space for illumination. Her hands and feet were still bound together. Her neck hurt from having bending them in one position for a very long time. The mosquitoes in the room kept biting her and the notes were painful. She had been unable to sleep for a while even with her eyes closed, so when she heard movement in front of the door, her eyes flew open. She fixed her gaze on the door, sensing movements behind it. Her heartbeat increased in fear as she was unable to tear her gaze away from the door. Her fear heightened when someone started to bang something on the door. She began to struggle with her chains, unable to move. “Help!” she yelled. “Somebody, help me!” But the banging increased, until the door was pushed open. She opened her mouth and let out a loud scream when she saw the uniformed men armed to the bones barging in, “Ahhhhhhh…….” “Ma'am, please you can calm down,” On

"Ashley?!" Nicholas exclaimed. Ashley glanced up, her eyes grief and fear stricken. She pushed at the hair that were sticking to her face because of the tears. "Nicholas," she gasped behind her cuffed hands. "Oh my God, Nicholas you are here. I missed you!" She cried. "What are you doing here, Ashley?" Nicholas asked, still shocked and confused. "How....how did you get here?" "I....I was arrested," she mumbled. "For what? How? What did you do?" He threw a series of questions at her, all of which she did not answer. He stared at her, a small frown on his face as something finally clicked. "The cops said they arrested a couple of people who turned out to be a gang. They got an address from these guys and when they got there they found.....you?" He was shocked.....and although he was able to piece it together, he was still very much confused. "I'm sorry," Ashley whispered. "For?" "What happened," she cried. "I....I didn't know at first. She didn't tell me we were going to kill her
Unrequited Love ONE HUNDRED AND NINETEEN
Diane slowly opened her eyes. She let out a soft groan of pain as she tried to adjust herself on the ground. Her hands kept pulling against the cuffs. She glances around, shuffling her legs. The entire room was dark, except for the ray of light coming in beneath the door. She had spent almost two days in this hell hole that Jenny and Derek had locked her up in. Just yesterday, one of Jenny's goons had placed a call to her family, demanding a ransom. Diane let out a pant. She was feeling hungry and thirsty. Not only that, her entire body was in serious pains. Her body ached to the marrow and she had this massive headache that forced her to wince from time to time. She could not wait to get out of here, yet she had no idea how she would get out. The doors and windows were locked, her hands and feet were handcuffed and there was absolutely no way that she could free herself. Her best and only option was to wait for Nicholas to pay the ransom so she could be released. Just then, the door

“Hey,” Malvika said as she walked down the stairs tiredly. Natasha was sprawled on the couch, tired from her constant crying. Her eyes were red and her cheeks looked swollen. Malvika walked towards her and sat beside her. “Hey, are you still crying?” She asked, looking around the living room. She saw Nicholas standing by the door, talking lowly to someone on the phone. “I’m too tired to cry,” Natasha answered weakly. Her weeping had seeped out every of her energy. She pulled herself to sit up. “What do you think happened to her? She said she was going out and all of a sudden, we couldn’t find her. How did that happen?” “Okay, I need you to calm down,” Malvika said. “The cops are doing everything they can and Nicholas and I are trying our hardest best to find her. We are going to find her, okay?” Malvika tried to reassure her younger sister. She sounded sure of herself, but deep down, her insides crawled with doubt and fear. What if they were never able to find her? Was she so sure th

“Yeah, I don’t think that’s going to be possible,” Jenny says into her phone, pulling the cigarette away from her lips and blowing out a puff of smoke. She was seated on the chair, her legs crossed out in front of her as she listened to her brother ask her to come to the house. “Nick, I really appreciate the invite, but I’m sorry, I’m not going to be able to make it. And by the way, I’m really sorry about Diane.” After a while, she hung up and threw the phone on the table, letting out a sigh. “Nicholas?” Ashley asked as she flipped through a magazine. She glanced up at Jenny, raising her brow. “Yeah.” Jenny let out an exaggerated sigh. “He wants me to come over today,” she said, rolling her eyes. “I’m not going though. I’m in the middle of something,” she said, blowing out a ring of smoke while Ashley chuckled. “Why can’t we go, though?” “We?” Jenny raised a brow? “Who’s we?” she asked. “You and I of course.” “Okay cute, but he didn’t invite both of us. He invited me, his sister.

Malvika sat in front of the car with Nicholas, her nose pressed on to the window as she was deep in thoughts. Beside her, Nicholas drove as carefully as he could, the both of them thinking about Diane. He was driving her to the restaurant where Diane’s cat was found. She had an inkling of what the restaurant was or who might be behind the kidnap but she needed to confirm it first.“What are you thinking about?” Nicholas asked, breaking the silence.She pursed her lips, turning to look at him. Then, she answers, “I might know who could be Diane’s disappearance,” she answered, slowly and carefully, watching his face for any reaction.He darted a surprised glance in her direction. “Really? Who?”“You are not going to be happy about this,” Malvika answerez. She paused, before finally saying, “Jenny.”“What?!” Nicholas sharply pulled the brake of the car in shock, halting it. A loud honk resonated behind them as a car drove angrily past them. “Sorry!” Nicholas called out, before turning ba

“Any news?” Natasha asked as she descended the stairs with Alyssa behind her. Her eyes were red from tears and she rubbed her cheeks to clean them off. Malvika and Grace were seated on the couch in the living room. Olivia was spread across Grace’s leg, sleeping peacefully. They had all stayed in the living room, waiting to here from Diane but heard nothing.Malvika shook her head. “No. Mark and Nick went to the station this morning,” she said.Natasha sighed, slumping on the chair. Alyssa sat down quietly beside her. “But where did she go?”“No one knows.”“She told me she wanted to receive a phone call,” Grace informed them, rubbing her hands slowly round her daughter, Olivia’s back. “That was all. I didn’t see her again.”“Her car isn’t in the garage,” Malvika said. “So, she went with her car.”“But someone must have seen her leave.”Malvika sighed. “We didn’t and we don’t even know who to ask. Hopefully, Mark and Nicholas will come back with good news.”The four of them sat in the

A groan slipped out of Diane’s mouth. Her left leg moved a bit as she struggled to straighten her shoulders. She subconsciously tugged her hands, sensing that they were in some sort of bondage. She let out another groan, this time fluttering her eyes open slowly. Her hazy sight was, however, met with darkness. She blinked twice, glancing around but her gaze met nothing but darkness.What happened? She wondered, squeezing her eyes shut as she tried to remember what happened the night before. With her eyes still shut, an image of her standing in the living room reading Ashley’s text message. She remembered leaving the house and going to a restaurant that looked deserted and out of business. She remembered thinking she would find Ashley there. And she remembered someone hitting her head. The last thing she remembered was blacking out.Oh God.Was she kidnapped? She was kidnapped! They freaking kidnapped her!Did that happen to Ashley too? Maybe that was why she was texting her. Did the s
