All Chapters of Reborn For Love: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Elena rang the bell to her parent’s home. She didn’t have a key and they were not expecting her. She had acted on impulse when she turned the car around. Now as she stood on the steps, she found herself shifting from one foot to the other. She was nervous. Her heart raced. Because of what she was about to do.She was going to escape into Susan. Or at least try to.She rang the bell again. It was taking them a while to answer the door. Finally, Susan showed up.“sweetheart. Come on in.” Susan had a big smile on her face. The sight of her daughter always warmed her heart.“I couldn’t get the door earlier. I was in the bathroom.” Susan explained her delay in answering the door.“sure mum. That’s okay.”“We weren’t expecting you,” Susan stated“Yeah, mum. I just thought I’ll swing by. I didn’t want things to keep being awkward. Especially after our last meeting.”“honey. Things can never be awkward. You are my child and I am there for you regardless. Plus I was a

Sunday lunch with her parents was nice. They talked and had a good time as a family. Elena got to learn more about her parents and their company. Her parents even informed her of the annual general meeting that was coming up in April. Elena had expected the meeting to be uncomfortable. Especially after her previous escape episode, which she had done with her mother. But it hadn’t been. It seemed as though, Susan didn’t even remember it. She didn’t bring up the topic of Cameroon with her dad. She didn’t think it was appropriate. This was their time to spend with their daughter and she wasn’t going to deny them that opportunity. Or distract them from it. So she waited till when her dad, Dave escorted her to her car. She waited till then to bring up the topic. Dave walked his daughter to her car. “hope you had a nice time?” he asked her. “yes, I did. It was lovely dad. I enjoyed it. “so go ahead, I know you have been dying to ask

Elena sprang out of her couch. Her escape episode into Toni was over. But that wasn’t the reason why she jumped up from her couch. She jumped up because she heard a strange noise. Someone was opening the door to her apartment.She could see his frame through the glass. It was a guy.She ran to get her spatula. That was the only thing she could think of to serve as a weapon then she hid behind her couch and watched the man enter the apartment. He walked towards her. She ducked further.“Elena? are you home?” The guy spoke loudly.She didn’t respond.“honey, did you go for a run?”No response still.She watched him take out his phone and dial. Her phone started to ring. Her phone was on the couch. Then she got up slowly. He must be someone she knew before the accident because he obviously had a key and had her number. Plus he had called her honey.“hey,” she said as she stood up fully.He turned around.“oh, honey. There you are.”

Samantha watched as Elena slumped to the ground. She tried to catch her but was not able to. She wasn't able to move as hard or as fast as she used to. And that was because of her pregnancy. She wondered how quickly the lady had fallen. One minute, they were talking, and the next minute, the lady was fainting. How weird was that? She screamed “somebody. Help. Call 000 please.” Samantha bent over to reach the lady that had just slumped. Something really felt familiar about her as she looked down on her. But she still couldn’t place it. She held on to the woman as someone else called for help. Elena on the other hand was having a very different escape episode than she had imagined. She had escaped, but not into Emma. She needed a minute to figure out where she was. She could see some light. And hear a voice. She strained her ears to hear, and she could pick Emma’s voice. But it seemed like Emma was talking through a puddle of water.

Emma heard a knock on her door. It was just past 10.00 am and it was a Saturday. She had been having some back pains and hadn’t had a good night's sleep. So she was just about to fall asleep again when she heard the knock.
