Charles  Ruby had another seizure. But it was bad. So bad because it happened at school, again. I was called by the school authorities that morning to come and take my child out of the school premises, that she was scaring away the children. It hurt when I heard that.  Although she had missed a lot in school because she had ran away. But I knew she would meet up, and catch up with everything. She was really smart. Too smart for her own good. She had always been the top of the class, since she started school. Just like the way I was in high school. That morning, Ruby had seem perfectly fine when I had dropped her off at school. I gave her a tight hug and promised to take her outing after school hours. And barely thirty minutes when I arrived at the office, I was called on the phone, that she

Alex I did everything I was instructed to do at the police station, and was informed that I was free since I killed the guy out of self defense. Also would be alerted when they get hold of those assassin's sponsors.  Although there was no need to since I knew their source, but I kept my mouth shut and returned to my house. Earlier that evening I had sent a huge check and my condolences to the dead security's family, told Greta she could return to my father's. Before I cleaned the house thoroughly, all by myself. Because it was my mess. There was no way I would send someone else to do it. Once more, the house was empty. No witty loud, sixteen looking girl (Mia) to go home to. Except my dogs. I went straight into my study, removed three specific books from the bookshelf.  Then I stood backwards. The library moved aside and it reve

Mia  Kate and Steve were more than nice to me, they treated me like they'd known me for a long time. Steve treated me like I was Kate's younger sister. Always asking me if I was comfortable, if I needed anything. But I always told him I was fine. Them keeping me at their home was more than enough. Even little Johnson like me. He had barged into my room this morning to wake me up. He climbed on the bed to join me, then told me he wanted to stay with me a little before heading to school. I had smiled at this.  And Kate who had been looking everywhere for Johnson, came into my room to check. Then let out a sigh of relief when she saw him cuddling me in bed.  She smiled and pulled him by the arm, so she could go prepare him for school. But he was being persistent.

Mia "On two occasions. At school. The first one was my best friend. I thought I loved him, because he was so close to me. He had a girlfriend at that time, so I was jealous. Finally, one day, when we were studying in our lecture hall, I summoned up the courage and told him I loved him. He said he loved me too. And that was how we started having sex. The day he told me to go, he was like, I forced myself on him. And he loved me, just as a friend. But he loved his girlfriend very much." "Bull crap. When he was getting under your skirt, why didn't he tell you that? He's a moron." I wrinkled my nose in disappointment. And Kate chuckled, before releasing a big puff of breath. It seemed she still hurt a little when she thought about the past. "The second one, was in his final year. We met at a friend's party, and because acquainted with each

Mia I was nervous at first, it had been a long long time since I had my hair done, over two years. I didn't know how it felt like anymore. Two hours later, I stared back at the mirror infront of me to see if it was me or someone else. They had wiped all the pimples and dark spots on my face, making the skin on my face lighter. And the artificial hair I had on my head was quite bigger than my body, it was long, curly and full. And looked expensive. I stared at the price tag on the empty pack and gasped. It was thrice my monthly income. I quickly turned to Kate,she flashed me a sheepish grin when she saw the look on my face. "It's a good quality that's why it costs that much. You look beautiful by the way." She was sipping an orange juice and eating french fries. She winked at me and I smiled my gratitude towards her. I stared back

Alex "Isn't she gorgeous?" Kate asked me. I wanted to speak up but felt the words choked up in my throat. Standing before me, was Mia dressed in a cream coloured gown which was moulded to her body, revealing her slim but shapely curves. Black flats showing her perfect straight legs and a hair which was bigger than her body. She had no make up on her beautiful oblong face and her lips were so full and pink. I was short of words because she was breathtakingly beautiful and stunning like a goddess. She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen on my 31years on earth. For the first time in my life, I felt like an idiot because I couldn't stop my eyes from roaming over her body. Kate cleared her throat and it broke us from staring at each other because Mia was staring at me too.

Charles "Alex Friedrich Esquire, caused a whole lot of damages during teenage hood. He was the social role of trouble; Vandalizing malls to the fullest extent, in the dead of the night. Painting cops car, getting into fights. He hated his father." It was Max, with eyes and fingers in front of the system, on the wooden desk that was filled with gazillions of paperworks. There was a cold coffee at the side of the system, that he drank on several occasions, with a sour facial expression. It was a Tuesday afternoon, at the station. Max and me were having a discussion, when I brought up Alex. He insisted on knowing why, and right at that moment, the idea of searching Max on our Criminal records, popped into my head. So I barked an order to Max to check for Alex because it was important. And he had hurriedly abandoned the paperworks, h

Chapter eighty.

Charles Three hours later. "Is she your kid?" Asked a lady, whose eyes had been on me, since I and Ruby made our way into the grocery store. I nodded, while Ruby who was grabbing some candies, threw them into the cart, and stopped just to place her hands on her hips, as she stared at the woman in a carefully tentative manner. "You look like her elder brother, and not her Dad." It looked like the lady wasn't going to drop it. Shoving my hands into my pants pocket, I shot her a tiny smile. "Yeah, I get that alot." "Uh, Paapa?" Ruby called out to me. Just before the lady could come up with a response to what I had said. "Yes, baby?" I glanced at the lady br
