Chapter 8

    (A month later)     Vera's P. O. V  Preparing for work, I turned on the radio to listen to some music before I finally went out. The first thing to come up was the News about Ray's father's sentence. He was given twenty years in jail with hard labor. A smile lit up my face hearing that. Although I wasn't satisfied with the number of years, he got because I felt he needed more, it was nice to know he was finally punished for his heinous crime. My thoughts wandered to Ray and once again, I wondered how he was doing now.   Shaking my head as if trying to dislodge the thought, I focused my gaze on my stomach. A bump was beginning the show, and I loved it very much. I wouldn't stop caressing it. Due to the pregnancy was always tempted to see Madam Deborah or Ray, but I always stopped myself. Can't risk them finding out I'm still alive. Jeff keeps checking up on me, probably making sure I don't run away. It's not like I h

Chapter 9

         ( A few months later)                Chapter 9     Biting my lips so as to suppress a groan, I leaned heavily on the broomstick, breathing heavily. My stomach is so huge now and the added weight really isn't helping matters. Not to mention how uncomfortable have been feeling. When I finally managed to afford an hospitals visit, I was told I would be due in a few days. I've been dreading and expecting the day. I continued working even as the discomfort tripled. My boss saw me and probably out of pity, told me to take a break. I muttered my thanks and went to look for a quiet place to seat and rest my head.      I was already drifting off when my phone buzzed, waking me up. I picked it up to check who the caller was. No other than Jeff. Breathing out, I picked it up.     " Hey...." I muttered, my voice sounding scratchy. I ran a hand through my

Chapter 10

Vera.    I finally went back to the pack. And as expected, they were excited to see me. Or should I say... Jeff was happy to see me. Commander Snake still had that indifferent look on although I caught a hint of approval. Kira looked like she was going to explode, her eyes blazing and ears red. I paid no attention to her.    " Vera!" Jeff said as he rushed to hug me. I stiffened, unfamiliar with the warmth. " For a second there, I thought you wouldn't return." He muttered against my ears.     " Hey... " I began as we disengaged. " I said I'll be back, and here I am. Although I'll have to admit, I didn't want to be back."  He nodded, his lips still curled up. I grimaced, looking around. The base looked different now... Sophisticated. You wouldn't even know this place is a home for highly trained robbers.     " Wow... This place looks amazing. How did you get all the money to afford all of this?" I ask offh

Chapter 11

   " I found this child in my doorstep when I woke up last night. What am I supposed to do with it?" Ma'am Deborah asked the police officer, who was busy scribbling something into his note.    " Did you now...." He muttered, uninterested. Glancing at her, he folded his hands, pressing his lips together. "Well... I don't know ma'am. You're going to have to take it to the hospital." He announced.    " I already did that. I had the baby tested and they say she's in perfect health condition. What I don't understand is why anyone would want to live a child on my doorstep."     The police then shifted his gaze towards the baby, who was already twitching in ma'am Deborah arms. A cursory look and he sighed.     " She's still really young. How old?"     " Probably a few weeks." Ma'am Deborah replied, rocking her. " According to the doctor."    " Well, you can take care of

Chapter 12

5 years later.Ray walked into ma'am Deborah restaurant, glancing around so he could look for her. Ma'am Deborah was the first to see him however. " Raymond!" She called out, walking towards him. Ray stopped,a small grin breaking out. Once ma'am Deborah was in front of him, she pulled him into a hug. Ray stiffened at first but soon relaxed, tightening his hands around her. Eventually she pulled away." It's been so long! Where have you been!?" She asked, holding his hands. He chuckled, then settled into a soft sigh." Away. Anywhere that was far away from here." He replied sincerely. Ma'am Deborah took a proper look at him. Although he still looked the same, he was no longer the young, charming Ray she first met. She had to blame time and grief for ageing him so quickly. A few inches taller, a deep set eyes that sparkled less, and a very evident stubble. She could detect some faint frown lines and her heart broke a little inside. She shook it aside and smiled wa

Chapter 13

Vera.Waking up a few moments later, my eyes travelled to the window next to me. It was still dark. Very slowly a smile begins to stretch my lips. I'll be seeing my daughter again. I jumped out of the bed, hurrying towards the bathroom. I need to get ready! I hurried through my morning routine, coming out of the bathroom moments later. I immediately picked out an outfit that would hide me. Brushing out my hair and applying a bit of make-up, I was ready. I picked up my bag and car keys, stepping out of my room.Although it was still dawn, Jeff was already out working on his laptop. I greeted him, about to leave when he called me back." We should go out after this." He said, sparing me a glance. I stopped, turning." What?" I asked. He looked up at me." When you come back from your daughter. We should go out." " Oh... Okay. Sure." I nodded and stepped out. Walking towards the garage, I sought out my car and stepped in, turning it on and driving o

Vera.     " What are you doing?!" I asked, my heart pounding. staggering away from him, I tried it steady my nerves. He had a shocked look on at first but quickly sobered up.     " What does it look like I'm doing? Kissing you." He leaned in again but this time I pushed him away, standing on my feet.     " I don't why you keep forcing this Jeff. I told you I'm not ready." The shock on his face melted to reveal a hidden anger.      " It's been 5 years!" He shot back.     " I'm sorry, I just can't do it. I can't." I replied, avoiding his gaze. I didn't realize how close he was until I looked up.     " Are you seeing someone else?" He asked calmly, but I couldn't help but shudder at the tone of his voice.     "N-no of course not!" I replied, shaking my head. He held me still and tried to kiss me again. I struggled this time around, eage

Chapter 15

(Few days later)Vera.Standing beside Commander Snake, I tried to pay attention to what he was saying as I kept getting distracted. There was a new mission on ground and just like the others, it was all high profile. Unlike the others where would meet the victim in his home or hotel, this one was going to take place in a party so we need to be extra careful Commander Snake gave a list of instructions and things we should watch out for and once he was done, dismissed us. From the corner of my eyes, I watched as Jeff and Kira walk away, chuckling at something one of them said. Lately, Jeff's been hanging out with Kira. Not that I'm jealous but it has gotten to a point where I'm beginning to think they're doing it on purpose because Jeff ignores me whenever I try to talk to him. Normally, I would leave him alone but today I couldn't, I really need to talk to him.Walking up towards them and tapped Jeff lightly on the shoulder. He stopped but didn't turn, only swiveled h

Chapter 16

Vera." Are you really going to kill him?" I asked Jeff moments later Commander Snake had left the room." If Commander Snake says we should do it, then we do it." He replies, not looking at me. The ache in my heart gets worse." What if..." I began, stopping myself. Taking a deep breath, I started again. " What if he didn't rat out on us? Won't we be taking an inncoents life?" Jeff looked at me then. " An inncoents life? He saw Ava. Didn't you see that? Why won't he rat out on us?!" I pursed my lips, looking at everywhere but him. Jeff walked closer, stopping inches in front of me. " By the way Ava, why did you freeze up the way you did? You know him somewhere?" He asked and flinched a bit, placing my hands on my throat. It was at the tip of my tongue to lie, but I knew I would never get away with it if I did." Yes... I do." I whispered." More the reason he should be dead." Jeff replied without a moments hesitation. Then turned, walking away.

Chapter 17

Ray.I stared at the figure before me, too shocked to speak. Surely, my mind must be playing tricks on me, because this looks too real to be true. Isn't Vera dead? The figure stared at me, moving closer. I resisted the urge to take a step back. She pulled her hoodie off, taking in a deep breath." Didn't think we'd meet this way..." She muttered rather dryly, her lips twitching. I took a step forward." Is this really you?" I asked, disbelief still evident in my voice. She nodded. " Am I really speaking to you?" I asked again. She nodded again. I scoffed, still not being able to wrap my head around it." You're not dead?" " No."" How can it be!? How's it possible? I thought you were dead!" I muttered." Well, I'm not." " If you're not dead, why didn't you show yourself years ago!!" I yelled, unable to keep still anymore." Now's not the time to explain. I came for another reason." She replied, her voice still painfully calm. I took in
