Alice sent him a grateful look before clearing her throat, “What are those pictures Alexander? Who is she? I want to know everything”, Alice asked. Alexander swallowed hard and nodded his head. Last time he'd seen Aria Freeman was one of the worst night of his life. That experience had scarred him since that night and he looking forward to never meeting her. His first thought was how embarrassed she felt because she avoided eye contact with him. She was avoiding his glance like batteries with their matching poles held together, how their gazes just can't quite meet up and slide rapidly away from each other, but he can't find a wording for the tension between them. He knew there's got to be something to do to make everything better, but he can't quite get it to come together.“Her name is Aria Freeman, she was my junior in the university. I knew her before school, in fact I knew her since we were kids. Her mother was my mom’s best friend so they often make visits to our house. She used
Days in and out, Alice’s anxiety to see her child increased each day and night till it may appear as if she was going into depression or separation anxiety. This morning wasn’t an exception, she was complaining bitterly and was flaring a bit because aside being kept in bed and not allowed to move around, they’ve totally refused to bring the baby to her making her feel like maybe, just maybe the baby didn’t make it and they couldn’t tell her hence she was thrown into a depressed mood.“Why can’t I see her?! It’s been three weeks already! Three fucking weeks Alex! And I don’t even know what my daughter looks like. My wounds are all healed up and I can now move freely than before. Why does it seem like you are all preventing me from seeing her? I just want to see her!”, she whined angrily to Alexander who just returned from dropping the kids at home.“Calm down babe, the baby is doing fine and has gained more weight over the past days.”, he reassured her slowly.“Then why can’t I see her?
Within a month of Alice being discharged home from the hospital, Alexander and Special Prosecutor Prosper had sorted out the Aria situation. On the day of her arrest, Aria was traced to the international airport by the special police team who were on her trail. She was about to run away from the law once again before her arrest.Aria had confined in her closest friend Amanda Wills about all her crimes in the past and her plans to make a run for it once again. Unfortunately for her but fortunately for the law, her friend ratted her out on her plans and reported to the nearest police station about all she knew about the crimes Aria committed in the past.Aria thought she had confined in her reliable friend about all her secrets but what she didn’t know was that friend of hers held a naughty grudge against her for the affair she had with her father years prior. Hence on one chilled Monday morning when she made all her plans to make her escape, she was ambushed by the police at the airport
Sitting on the beach with baby Aurora in between her legs, she sighed loudly as she observed the way Alexia and Junior were playing together building castles in the sand.Their giggles sounding loudly in the air, it was music to her ears and the happy glint in their eyes was all she longed for all day and night.It’s been more than half a year since they’ve put everything behind them. They have moved on with their lives from all that they’ve gone through and have made peace with their past, they were looking forward to a beautiful future together with their paths clear.Her mind betrayed her and wondered to six months ago when Linda was buried. Only a handful of people attended the event that gloomy day because apparently Linda had more enemies than friends in her circle. She was laid in state only on that Saturday morning and she was buried within five hours.She felt chills down her spine when the image of Linda laying in the casket with her new born came to her mind. They both looke
The family returned from their holiday in good spirit. The holiday was much needed and they had the time of their lives. They took a lot of pictures and videos with them as a form of memory of their time in the private island, the memories they want to take with themselves. They didn’t just stay at the island throughout their stay here but went sightseeing to the various towns around, tried new foods, tried new places and met a lot of people from all different walks of life. They had the experience of their lives and exposed their children to the new and various cultures around them. They had a blissful time for a long time even when they returned safely to M country months prior, they had to restart their everyday routines. Alice disclosed her pregnancy to Alexander after they returned from their journey with her new baby bump full in display but it was Alexander we are talking about, he couldn’t figure out shit to safe his life. To say he was beyond surprise and happy was an underst
The morning had been a hectic one in the Johnson’s household. Besides tending to two older kids, a toddler and a baby wasn’t a joke no matter the number of helps available.“Alexia! Junior! Oh come on you two! You two are making my stress tired! I can’t leave both Aiden and Aurora unattended to at the moment and both of you should be ready by now for goodnesses seek! It is past eight in the morning already. You will be late for school!”, Alice exclaimed loudly with a deep frown on her face as she continued to feed Aiden his breakfast and at the same time supervising Aurora to eat her breakfast.“No! No! No! No Aurora, don’t do that baby. You know not to play with your food, right?”, she stated with a gentle smile on her face as she scolded her gently.“Yes mummy. Sorry”, a soft spoken voice stated with a dull expression making her roll her eyes at the mischievous girl in front of her. She was the most mischievous of all her children and was also the most understanding one amongst all o
By the time Alice got to the office through the all the hectic traffic, it was almost midday and she was panting so hard by the time she got to her office. She gave a sigh of relief when she got to the company at a reasonable time because of the heavy traffic on the way.She walked confidently towards the meeting room ignoring all the scrutinizing eyes on her throughout her walk to the conference room. Even when she was late and shaking within her for fear of being judged unfairly she still forced herself to hold her head high and not let other people emotions or opinions affect her in any negative way. She was feeling quite guilty for how long it took her to make an appearance to the meeting that needed her presence. She didn’t fault herself that much either because she was informed about the emergency meeting when she was driving the kids to school because she didn’t check her mail on time the previous day.She sighed deeply and opened the door to the conference room. Several pair of
A slightly audible gasp was heard when Alice woke up with a startle. The room felt weirdly cold to her compared to the room temperature she left the air conditioning on before she took the nap.She sat up slowly on the what appeared to be a tiled floor, it was an all white tiled floor. With a frown on her face, she stood on the floor on her two shaking legs and looked around her environment in panic.She couldn’t understand what going but, saw that she was in what seems to be familiar to her in memory but also as if looking at it from another person’s perspective. It seems like a memory at the same time feels like a dream, it doesn’t make sense to her.Looking at the familiar scene in front of her, she couldn’t help but shiver at the intensity of chills running through her body, the room felt cold to her. Instantly she felt cold from her head to feet as she kept on looking at the familiar scene of what seems to be the burial services of Linda Davison and her still born baby.She walked
