Were you mine? Snake
Going a little back in time (to the moment when Jake and Rosa had their confrontation in the Hospital corridor ) - Jake grabbed Rosa by the arm and pulled her out into the hospital corridor, his face was a mix of anger and frustration. "Rosa, what is this nonsense?" Rosa wrenched her arm free, glaring at him. "What the hell do you think you're doing, Jake? I'm pregnant with your child!" Jake took a deep breath, trying to keep his voice steady. "Rosa, we slept together once, a few days ago. There's no way that kid is mine. You need to get an abortion." Rosa's eyes widened with shock and fury. "Are you serious? You want me to get rid of our baby? You're out of your mind!" Jake's expression hardened.He wasn't having her nonsense."Listen, if you want to keep the baby, fine. But don't expect me to just take your word for it. Get a DNA test before you start pinning this on me." Rosa's face twisted into a sneer. She was clearly not expecting that reaction from Jake. "Oh, I see. You'r

Mercy paused just before entering the hospital, turning slowly towards the throng of reporters. She removed her sunglasses with a flourish, revealing eyes that sparkled with confidence and mischief. The crowd hushed, hanging on her every move.They seemed spell bound,mesmerized. "Y'all got your equipment ready for a live stream?" she called out softly pretending to clap to grab their attention. But they were gawking at her. She knew that very well but she was the daughter of Elizabeth Rodgers after all. She had some drama I'm her blood. "Because I'm about to drop a bombshell that'll shock the entire nation. Hot gossip, straight from my household." The reporters erupted into a frenzy, scrambling to get the best spot. "Over here, Ma'am!" "What’s the scoop?" "We're live in three, two, one...!" Mercy’s smirk widened as she caught Rosa's eye. Rosa stood frozen.Reporters battled for position, shoving each other aside to set up their cameras and microphones. Tripods were hasti

Back in Lea's ward, Jake was pacing the room impatiently. He was waiting for the nurse to come back with news about whether or not the exit at the back of the hospital was safe for him to leave. But Lea's nurse walked in, carrying a laptop instead. "Hey, got something you might want to see," the nurse said, placing the laptop on the table. "It's a live press conference with Mercy Rodgers."Jake raised an eyebrow. "Mercy? How do you know Mercy?" " She is the reason we were able to hold the press at the gate. She is a share holder in this hospital. We didn't expect her to drop all of a sudden. And now she is going live and she said she had some news and also mentioned your name. I thought you might want to check. " The nurse clicked on the video stream, and Mercy's face filled the screen. She sat confidently in front of the crowd of reporters,“Thank you all for coming,” Mercy began, her voice steady. “I have a statement to make regarding recent revelations about our family.”Lea squeeze
Were you mine? Together
Jake held his breath as he stepped out of the grand limousine. A gust of air swept across his face almost slapping him, trying to wake him up from his trance. The Rodger mansion felt very different this time. Jake noticed the servants bowing and greeting them as they entered. It felt awkward. But then he felt Mercy's hand on his back. " Keep going. It's a homecoming, brother. Don't think too much! ” Jake nodded as he took his step forward. His eyes found Phill and Percy standing side by side in the great hall. Then his eyes fell on Elizabeth Rodgers, who stood with her back turned towards them. As she slowly turned around, the entire hall seemed to hold its breath. Her eyes locked onto Jake’s, and she began to walk towards him with deliberate, measured steps. A scrutinizing expression crossed her face, and Jake instinctively took a step back as she came closer. His mind raced, uncertainty and anxiety gnawing at him. The air was charged with emotion that neither could express,
Were you mine? The Sully family
" Enough of your nonsense! ” Elizabeth stood up, slamming her own fists on the table, growling in response." Take your dirty a** out of my house. I am not going to tolerate any more harassment. ” " Harassment? You are the one harassing me, Lizzy! How dare you cut off all my cards at once. You blocked and froze all my accounts. I couldn't even pay for my drinks! ” Mr.Cole staggered forward. On cue from Elizabeth, male butlers jumped forward and held back Mr.Cole, restraining his arms. It only aggravated his violence and he jumped up and down as they held him back. " What are you doing, Elizabeth? I am your husband! " He shrieked on top of his voice. Jake stared at the man, in his exquisite suit, a boot that might have cost a fortune. He kept staring and wondering what difference was there between this man, supposedly his biological father who gave him away at birth, and the father he had grown up with, also a drunk head but with worn out slippers and tattered clothes. No that Ja

Suddenly , Jake's phone blasted through the silence . He glanced at the screen with panic and immediately excused himself. " I need to take this. It's from the hospital. " He sprinted from there. Phill rushed after him. " Yes, I am. What happened to her? What???? When? " Jake ran as he spoke. Phill caught up to him, really quick. He grabbed Jake by his shoulder and pulled him around. " Jake? What happened to Lea? " He asked, concern etched all over his face. Jake glanced up and down, taking a good look at him. In all the commotion of their new found dynamics, he had almost forgotten the dynamic that they shared. Jake scoffed at that realisation and said, " They wouldn't call me if it was about, Lea. They would call you. You got her admitted at your hospital. You are her doctor. She is under your care. ” Phill's hand dropped from Jake's shoulder. " Jake, I... " He stammered, clearly feeling uneasy but he didn't know how to react. " Don't worry, I understand. You and Lea might b
Were you mine? The truth about her
Jake stayed beside their aunt's hospital bed, his hand enveloping her frail, trembling one.She was struggling to breathe again. Her breaths were shallow and rapid. The doctors had managed to stabilize her fifteen minutes ago, but then, her condition was deteriorating again."Shh, it's okay. Just breathe slowly," Jake murmured, his voice steady, trying to mask his own rising fear. "In and out, nice and easy.Remember how you taught us to swim? Blow your bubbles. You can do it! ”Her eyes darted around the room, wild with panic, but she focused on Jake, gripping his hand as if it were her lifeline. "Jake... Jake, I can't..." she gasped, struggling to catch her breath. "I'm right here. Just focus on me," he said softly, squeezing her hand reassuringly.Suddenly, her eyes cleared, and she tried to push herself up. Her eyes fluttered and she suddenly sat up with a jolt. She ripped off her oxygen mask, her breath was labored but her eyes were sharp with an unexplained urgency. "Jake," she ras
Were you mine? Hers
Lea’s eyes were red-rimmed from crying, her hand resting over her hip. She looked tired, sleep deprived,grief etched on every fibre.She stood by her aunt’s grave, her black dress clinging to her pregnant belly. She looked fragile, her face pale and drawn, but there was a stubborn resolve in her eyes. She had insisted on being here, defying the doctors and her own body's protests. The air was heavy with the scent of rain, the sky a blanket of grey. The sky was overcast, as if mourning with them. A cool breeze rustled the leaves. Jake stood a few feet away, his eyes never leaving Lea. His hands were buried in his pockets.His eyebrows furrowed.He was lost deep in thought. Phill was there too.The last guests had left, leaving the three of them alone.Lea’s fingers traced the edges of the gravestone, her voice barely a whisper. “She always believed in me..." Her voice trailed off. Jake stepped closer, his face was a mask of a lot of emotions of which concern was very prominent. “Lea, yo

Were you mine? Life goes on
A month after Lea's death - Jake stood in front of Lea's grave, holding onto the bouquet that he had brought. He had her favourite box of chocolate, custom made by the old baker lady back in their home town. He brought her flowers everyday after seeing Kai off at his daycare. He spent the rest of his day talking to her before going back to picking Kai up again. He brought her all the things he had promised to get her one day when they were little. He was trying to give her everything he always wanted to give her but never really could. Today was no different. As if Lea's death wasn't enough of a blow, after the postmortem Jake was told that Lea was pregnant with their second child. It didn't make things any easier only driving another dagger through Jake's heart. Perhaps it was just because Kai existed that he could move forward.He didn't want to but he had to for the sake of the little guy. With Lea gone, there was no meaning left in this world. All colours were gone. It was o

" NOOOOOO! " Jake flung himself forward trying to put himself between Lea and the bullet but it was too late. The bullet hit her right on point blank. She fell right in front of his eyes,blood gushing out like a crimson fountain. " LEAAAAAA!!! "Jake's voice broke with the sheer intensity of his scream as he ripped his white shirt and pressed it over her forehead. " CALL FOR AN AMBULANCE! NOW!!! " He barked, desperately clinging onto Lea's body as Kai grabbed his shoulder and began to whimper. " It's alright, baby. Don't worry. Mommy will be fine. " Jake could barely hold onto his child as his hands started to tremble. Mercy fell down on her knees, probably the only one whose rationale was still working. She closed Lea's lifeless eyes as her body whacked with tremors as she cried.Lea was no more. It was instant death. " Mercy! What are you doing? " Jake shoved her hand away from Lea's body. " Somebody please call an ambulance! " He kept screaming as Kai's cries reached the breaking po
Were you mine? Finally-Our wedding
Lea's POV I stood in front of the grand mirror.Today, I would marry Jake, the love of my life, and the father of my Kai. Our journey had been anything but normal but it had brought us to this breathtaking moment. My dress was a masterpiece, a custom creation by one of the most renowned designers in the town. The silk fabric clung to my figure, adorned with intricate lace and delicate pearls that sparkled as I moved. The train flowed behind me like a river and the veil was draped over my shoulders, waiting to be lifted.I felt goosebumps at the thought. "Lea, you look like an absolute dream," Lisa said, fussing with the final touches on my veil. She stepped back, her eyes bright with unshed tears. "Mr.Rodger is not going to know what hit him." I laughed, trying to steady my breathing. "You think?" "I know," she replied, giving me a reassuring squeeze on the shoulder."Wow, Lea. You're stunning. Seriously, Jake's going to lose it when he sees you."The door opened and my maid of h
Were you mine? Suddenly
Suddenly Jake leaped off the bed, crossing over Lea as he did. He went for the cupboards, yanking them open, rummaging through the drawer as he did. Lea raised herself up on one elbow, watching him closely. " Jake, what's going on? " She asked with one brow raised. " I swear it has to be somewhere in here. I left it just as it was. " Jake kept searching not looking back at her. Lea signed as she got up from the bed, still very naked and walked right over. " If you tell me what you are looking for, maybe I can help. Is it your wallet? " Jake yanked another section of the cupboard open and Lea stopped at the sight of all the neatly arranged laundry. It was her side of the cupboard. Absolutely mess-free and tidy, just like she had left it years ago. She left Jake as he went through the night stand , touching the fabrics and checking if they were still in the same sequence like she left them. " They are untouched. Why didn't you move them? " Lea's voice was barely above a whisper
Were you mine? Pent up
Lea's POV His kiss soothed me a little. Those things had been bottled up inside and it was high time I let it escape. Tears streamed down my face as memories I had tried so hard to suppress resurfaced. I couldn't hold back the sobs that wracked my body. Jake's presence beside me was both comforting and agonizing."Lea," he begged, his voice trembling slightly, "talk to me." I shook my head, unable to find the words to express the turmoil inside me. Instead, I let out a choked sob, burying my face in my hands. Jake's arms wrapped around me, pulling me close. His embrace was warm and strong."I'm here," he murmured, his lips brushing against my hair."I'm not going anywhere." His words broke something inside me. I clung to him, my fingers digging into his shirt as if he were the only thing keeping me from falling apart. His scent filled me with comfort as I burried my nose over his neck while he nibbled at mine. His lips slowly found it's way back to mine. But before he could kiss
Were you mine? Scared
Jake's POV " Yes, we are coming right now. Yes please. Keep the keys ready. " I called the old watchman because it had been ages since I last went there. Lea hadn't spoken for the rest of the drive and I knew for certain there was something cooking in her little head. I wasn't complaining. She had been through a lot and I was happy to be of any serve to her, any use... anything to make my Lea happy again. Make her smile and dance like when she was a little girl. My crazy, sweet, innocent Lea. She had been leaning on the seat but as soon as we entered the driveway towards the apartment she sat up, rolled down the window and stretched her neck out. " Lea, careful... " I tried to pull her back but she opened the car door before I could pull up and made a run for it. I tossed the keys to the valley with much frustration and ran after her. " Lea, wait" She topped right in front of the elevator and turned around. I was running so fast, I almost banged into her. She pulled my hand int
Were you mine? U-turn
Jake's POV " Of course you get that job, whether you like it or not. " I wasn't even lying. Who better than Phil to look after my little one. I knew he would always have his back, no matter what. Phill chuckled before turning around. " By the way, did you sign the papers before coming inside? " He asked me and it took me off guard. " Papers? What papers? " " Discharge papers. Didn't they tell you before you entered? " He made a disappointed face and looked out of the door even though he could see no one. " These incompetent workers. They can't get one thing... " " Discharge papers? Who is getting discharged? I thought you needed around a week to recover. " Lea interrupted looking straight at Phill. " I am not getting discharged. You are! " Phill pointed at Lea but she stood up. " Me? Oh, alright. Makes sense. " Phill turned his gaze back to me and said, " Get the paper works done and take her home. I think I need to get some sleep... " " Take who home? " Lea stood face t
Were you mine? Promise
Phill's POV I had to do it. I knew how much I was going to suffer after that kiss ended. I didn't want it to end. I didn't want to let go of her hand. I didn't want to see her with anyone else, even if it was my own brother. I knew I was finally letting the dam break. I had been holding back way too long I couldn't do it anymore. I had to let her know. The moment her taste touched me, I lost track of everything. I lost control of myself. I lost my sense of the place. I kissed her and she let me and I was grateful for that. I was half expecting her to shove me back but she didn't. She held me, held my hand as I took from her what I needed. My life force. She was like an EpiPen bringing me back to life. " Phill... " She finally mumbled against my lips, her hands on my chest, gently holding them but not pushing. It took way too much of my energy to stop and finally look up at her face. I couldn't read her expression. Was it shock, fear, disgust, sympathy.... I could not understan

Lea's POV " Kai... " The moment my eyes opened I threw my hands in all directions, trying to get up and look for Kai. But i didn't have to look much further. He was right across and I could see him in the other room. My baby was latched to the beeping machines with pipes and wires and what not. And right beside him was Phill. He sat at his head side, his hand gently gliding up and down through his hair. Phill turned towards me with a smile when he realised I was up. My head was still groggy because of the sedative the nurse had injected me with but I was feeling all better and alright. " Lea, you are up! Are you feeling alright? "He asked me with that infectious smile. I should have been the one to ask him that question. He was the one with a wound. He had just saved my child's life all over again, perhaps for the zillionth time. " I am fine. How are you feeling? How is Kai holding up?" I walked towards where he was. He was in a wheelchair, I noticed when I went near. He
