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? 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? The end
" 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? 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
Were you mine? My everything
Lea's POV***present***He was my everything. My morning sun. My brightest moon. He was the reason I woke up and also the reason I went to sleep. But there was a reason I had to leave him again. It was my choice. I could not drag him down. Not after pushing him to the top. He had worked so hard for what he deserved. Could I not wait for a few more years? Of course I could. That was the only reason I had left without telling him anything, because I knew if I told him, he would leave everything behind and follow me home. I had switched my phone off. Talked to him once or twice and just made up excuses to say goodbye. I had literally cut off all ties with him even though it was killing me from the inside. It was not like it was the first time I was living away from him. But his texts, his voice, those video calls kept me going. But this time was particularly difficult. I was also not keeping very well. Health wise. Perhaps because I was unable to eat properly and would vomit i
Were you mine? Heavy
Lea's POV***snippets from the past.. just a month or two ago***A bag full of broken dreams and a heavy baggage weighing my body and mind down like gravity pulls anything that attempts to fly.I was walking along the seashore.It had been vacated because there was a high tide coming. But the patrols must have missed my little silhouette. With less than five feet tall and a skinny little structure, I must have blended out quite well in the dark backdrop.It was only my silent sobs trickling down in perfect harmony along with the song of the waves that were crashing on the hard rocks.Was it their futile attempt at defying destiny, trying to break through a path that was already blocked? Were they just as naive as me?I have been on cloud nine lately.It was honestly quite surprising for my life to start sorting out so beautifully.Jake and I were like brothers and sisters, raised together by my aunt when our parents passed away.My aunt had taken me in when I lost my whole family in a

Author's POV***Let me continue Lea's narration***"What is it, Jake? You look so worried."Jake was sitting in the back seat with his manager. He was fidgeting with his hands and fingers, constantly looking out of the window and then back at his watch."Umm, it's nothing. I just feel worried. Lea is not picking up. "" Lea? The girl from your hometown?" His manager asked, looking at his own watch."It's three in the morning, Jake. This is normally when people are tucked into their beds. "Jake nodded his head."I know. I know Mr. Kimberly. But she isn't at home. She is at my place. She came last night. I had to leave with Rosa before I could even talk to her. Anyway, just ask him to drive fast. Let's just get home.Mr.Kimberly looked at Jake with an expression that was a mixture of concern and regret."Um, Jake. What was your relationship with this girl again? Is she your sister or cousin?"Jake didn't answer. He didn't know the answer either. Technically, she was his foster sister, b
Were you mine? Back

In fact, their connection was biological.Phill was Jake's older brother, and Jake was one of his younger siblings. They had a little baby sister, who was at this time a full-fledged teenager. Her name was Mercy.Well, you must be confused because I did tell you guys that Jake's mother died in childbirth and his father was a drunk head. That was, in fact, what we knew. That was what we were told as neighbors. In fact, that was the lie that Jake lived with for most of his life.The truth was that he was the middle child of the rich heiress Elizabeth Rodgers. She had taken in a very wimpy man for her husband because she loved bossing around.She was a very rich and arrogant whore, if I were to be precise. She slept around with other men even after marrying the man of her own choice. No matter how wimpy a guy was
