2021-09-28 04:04:05Diane groaned in frustration as her phone rang the fifth time. The phone had been ringing and she had refused to pick. Did the person calling not get the memo that she didn’t want to pick or talk to anyone? Angrily, she picked the phone and answered the call. “Who is this?” She snapped.
“Diane, this is Logan,” the person replied.
“Oh! I’m so sorry, Logan, I had no idea it was you.”
“That’s okay,” Logan said reassuringly. “Actually, I called to inform you that preparations for your father’s burial has been completed.”
“Oh my God!” Diane gasped. “Thanks, Logan. I’ve been so caught up with different things lately that I forgot to ask about that.”
“It’s okay. All that remains for us is to pick a date. Does the twenty second of next month sound okay to you?”
“Yeah, that’s good.”

Unrequited Love SEVENTEEN
Ashley laid on the bed, filing her nails and chewing gum really loudly. She moved her head from side to side as she examined the nails. The door opened and Ashley looked up to see Nicholas coming in. She climbed out of the bed, dropping her nail equipment on the bed and walking towards Nicholas.“Hey baby,” she said with a hug smile, leaning closer to hug him. She snaked her hands round his neck, pulling his head down for a kiss. “How was work?”“Ugh, stressful,” Nicholas muttered.“Aww, honey,” Ashley said, rubbing his back slowly. “Well, will you mind some massage?” She asked as she watched him sit on the bed and kick his shoes away.“I would love it,” he groaned.“Good!” Ashley said excitedly. She moved closer to him and began to unbutton his shirt. She pulled his shirt off him and began to pul

DIANE pressed her nose to the window. She stared outside as Nicholas drove past the houses and trees. She didn’t want to turn to look at him; she didn’t want to start a conversation. She wanted to be alone. But of course, Nicholas did not get the hint. He had to talk. “Hey, are you okay?” he asked.Diane grunted.“Di? Is everything okay?”She grunted again.“Di?”She turned to him. “Can’t you see that I don’t want to talk to you?”He shrugged. “I want to talk.”She rolled her eyes and turned back to the window.“I should tell you a little about my grandparents, right?”“Do whatever you want,” she replied but was really interested in what he had the say.“Well, I&rs

Jenny dug her hand into her purse and brought out a lighter. Holding the cigarette with her lips, she pressed the lighter on and lit her cigarette. She held the cigarette in the middle of her two fingers, inhaled, removed the cigarette and blew out of puff. After repeating the process about three times, she brought out a phone and scrolled through the contacts. She came to a stop on Malvika’s name and dialed the number.Meanwhile, Malvika was naked in her bathtub filled with bubbles. There was a magazine in her hand and her phone was on a small table close to the wall. She sank into the bubble, letting out a deep sigh as she flipped the magazine open from page to page.Her phone rang. She sighed, pushed herself up out of the tub and reached out to pick her phone. Her brows furrowed in confusion as she saw that it was an unknown number.She swiped the answer button. “Hello?”“M

“Can you stop the music?” Diane asked, exasperated. “Your taste in music is so awful.”“You don’t like this?” Nicholas asked as he paused the music.“Please I’m trying to relax. Don’t make this harder for me,” Diane replied, massaging her temples with her fingers.“Here, let me help you out.” Nicholas say down at the edge of the bed, close to her head and replaced her fingers with his. He slowly rubbed her temple. “Relax,” he whispered.Diane groaned as the muscles in her head relaxed. “You are so good at this.”“I try.”“Ashley is enjoying a lot.”“Really? What do you mean?”“First of all, you give good head massages,” she said.“I give excell

Natasha jogged down the stairs, walked past Jenny who was sitting on the couch and headed towards the kitchen. Her throat felt parched and she needed to drink water. Just as she was about to step into the kitchen, Jenny called her. “Natasha.”Natasha stopped, a little bit confused. She turned around with a frown. “Did you just call me?”“Yes. Pass me the remote control,” Jenny simply said.“What?”“The remote control. Pass it to me.”“Jenny, it’s right in front of you,” Natasha said, staring at her in confusion.“Yes, I know that and I want you to pass it to me,” Jenny insisted much to Natasha’s disbelief.Natasha turned and walked back towards Jenny. She stood in front of her, her arms folded together. “Okay, Jenny, what are you playing

“What do you think?” Malvika asked. She was standing in front of the mirror staring at her reflection. She was cladded in a red mermaid skirt that hugged her thighs, brought out her curves and flared out just above her knees. The skirt was paired with a black and silvery crop top that left a part of her stomach exposed. She had also slipped on a pair of pumps. “Well?” She asked again, twisting her body as she looked herself over in the mirror.“I think you look amazing,” Natasha said. She was on the bed, her legs stretched out in front of her as she looked at Malvika.“Really?”“Yeah, you definitely look good. That skirt is amazing. Brings out your figure.”“Oh, I know. That’s why I picked it.”“Where are you going anyway?” Natasha asked.“I asked Jayden to come on

Natasha laid sprawled on her body, scrolling through her phone and playing music. She glanced at her reading table, aware that she was supposed to be reading right now but she couldn't do anything. She was not exactly in the mood to read anything. She thought back to Ashley walking into her room and demanding that she washed her clothes, she thought of Jenny asking her to pass the remote and blackmailing Malvika. Then, she thought of Malvika scheming with Jenny to break Nicholas and Diane apart. Natasha let out a loud scream and flung her phone on the bed. This was so fucked up. Her life was fucked up. This house was fucked up. Everything was just fucked up. She sat up, rubbing her forehead with the tips of her fingers. This house was so fucked up, she thought. How did her and her sisters even get into this kind of life and how did Malvika feel so comfortable doing whatever she was doing with Jenny right now. Natasha picked up her phone, scrolling through her contact list. She clicke

Diane pushed open the door to her office. As she stepped inside, she was taken aback by the figure of a man in her seat, his back turned to her. Her first instinct was to scream but instead, she cautiously stepped forward to ask, “Who are the you?”The man turned around in the chair slowly and Jayden’s face came into view. He beamed at her. “Oh, here you are! I was beginning to think that you didn’t come to work.”Diane sighed in relief, as she turned to close the door. “Jayden, you scared me!” She said, walking over to her desk and dumping the files I’m her hand on the table. “Get up from my seat.”“Nah,” Jayden refused, relaxing back into the chair. “It’s too comfortable.”Diane rolled her eyes and slumped into the couch adjacent the desk. “You’ve really grown comfortable around here,”

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

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.
