THE ANTONIO'S MANSION It was a lovely Friday morning. The sun gave its light gracefully and the wind exhibits its talent, filling the air with the aura of the lilies, roses and sun flower on the compound making the house dazzel with beauty.Lizzy, Gina and Agnes , the house maids were busily doing their house chores. Moving restlessly like ants." Hurry, go finish with the meal, Mrs. Fiona will soon come down for her breakfast...." Gina exclaimed, turning to what she was doing at the hall.Agnes looked grumpily at her and left to the kitchen." Good morning ladies", Mr. Antonio called descending down the stairs. "How was your night?" he queried on with a smile." Good morning sir", they cheerfully chorused. Lizzy took his bag and trolled out to the car." Your breakfast is served sir ", Agnes uttered from the dinning table. Mr Antonio just giggled as he trod to the door." Never mind, dear.  I ought to rush off to the office now. I'll have my breakf

THREE YEARS AFTER Gisella sat in the kitchen alone with Gina and Lizzy who were busily doing their chores. Fiona suddenly appeared by her and sat beside her. Gisella instinctively giggled which gave Gina and Lizzy the chill as they watched her giggle alone to herself, staring at an unknown person." Who is she giggling at so cheerfully, Gina?" Lizzy swiftly mumbled in a single breath which brought back Gina's glaring eyes to her." Why asking me, Lizzy? – Does it look like I'm a sort of deity who knows all?" She wittily asked. " How can I know when we're all speechless over here, wondering what's going on over there."Lizzy gave a sheepish smile and turned back to her work. "Let's just forget it – It's actually kinda getting creepy in here." She mumbled to herself. " Hey, honey" Fiona called with smiles and Gisella chuckled. " How is my little baby today?" she asked." Good, mum, just missed you–What took you so long today..?, she cried with a grumpy look

It was a lonely and sad evening for Gisella. She sat on her bed with her mother's ghost beside her, crying and famished since no one was ready to make her some food since morning." Mum?" She called " why won't dad believe me(sobs)I'm so hungry as well. There is no food in the house for me.", she cried and grumbled her face. Her stomach had already started hurting due to luck on food." My stomach hurts so bad, mum. It lacks food–Ouch...", she cried in pain. Fiona instinctively rose to her feet." You'll be fine Gisel, let me get you some food.", Fiona cried worriedly." No, mum, they'll see you. Don't go.." She mumbled." Don't worry, honey. I'll be right back.."She turned to leave for the kitchen but the door suddenly slam open with great force. They both gazed at the door expectantly. And to their surprise, Natasha entered angrily, with a scornful look and threw a deadly gaze at Gisella which made her panic at her sight." What–do–you– want in my room? ", sh

TWO DAYS AFTER Finally, Antonio and Natasha's  marriage ceremony was on. The house was beautifully and heavily decorated with blue and white colours and flowers, making the place glitter with beauty like the heavens. People kept trooping in and out of the mansion for the ceremony. Gina, Agnes and Lizzy were extremely busy with the arrangement and meals for the ocassion. Gina swiftly paced down the stairs, carrying a tray of mugs and wine glass. She trod into the kitchen, calling out Lizzy's name.Lizzy hurried into the kitchen with quite a pale and stressed gaze. "What's it, now, Gina?– why are you calling? I really got to rush to the bakery for the cake and pasteries before the ceremony begin so kindly be fast about it." She lamented." I need you to pass by the super market for some foodstuffs, please?" Gina pleaded. " I can't go at the moment else things would get messed up over here."" But Agnes can take charge while you rush over and return in a

ANTONIO'S OFFICE Antonio sat behind his desk, lost in some document he was busy with. Just then a knock from the door drew his attention, he instinctively gazed up." Come in." He eluded and turned back to the documents.Gideon slowly pushed the door open and trod in. "There's a bad news, sir". He mumbled, nervous. Which made Antonio swiftly gaze up, tensed." What is it? Tell me, Deon?– whhat happened. "" The main quarters,sir– where all the products are kept , just caught fire." He answered in a single breath. Antonio sprang up, shocked. His face suddenly went pale as if the colour in his face had dried out." What?" He roared. " How  is that possible?– what do to mean!?"" I don't know sir" He stuttered. " But we couldn't retrieve anything from there."He added. Antonio suddenly felt numb. He sauntered back and slowly faint into the chair, devastated.  " God, this can't be happening."He exclaimed.
