All Chapters of For Better or For Worse: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Chapter 11 A few minutes after placing their orders, the waiter brought their food. They ate quietly, Bola was expecting her to bring up a conversation but she never did and they just ate in silence. The silence between them was odd and weird; at least, It is normal to chat while eating and then talk about whatever they have after eating but Bella never utter a word. "Hope you enjoyed your meal?" Bella asked as she picked up the wipes to clean her mouth after they were done with their food. "Sure, I did. We all know Vinnie's chefs are pros, they prepare delicious food." "Well, they're in the leading position for their outstanding characteristics and I believe their meal is also a constituent," Bella added with a smile plastered on her face. The conversation they were having was not what Bola was expecting. "Probably she's still trying to be friendly before hitting her with her main motive. "I wonder why she's going through corners before she strikes. Whatever she's preparin

Gathering every little strength within her, she continued running as fast as her legs could carry her. She dare not stop, or else she was gonna die; not just normal death but an excruciating one at that.The strange old woman was also determined to get to her, the look on her face alone screamed DEATH. Though the woman looks feeble and frail, but her legs were strangely fast as she pursued her swiftly, holding the hem of her wrapper. She was carrying a shiny cutlass in her hands breathing heavily as she continued running. "I will chop off your head! It's just a matter of time before I get to you." She threatened, breathing heavily with her legs making a resounding sound.Stella glanced back at her as she made the statement. "Oh! Somebody help me," she cried as she was gradually running out of strength, sweating profusely with her heart beating with great ounce.There's no doubt, if this woman should get to me then I'll be dead meat." She thought as she continued running with ever

Chapter 15 After forcing herself to get out of bed that morning, Stella went to the kid's room to get them dressed for church and prepare for Sunday service. Her body was still not feeling okay or normal, she was just forcing herself to do the chores that morning and there was no way she's gonna miss church service. "Mommy, are you not feeling well?" Felix questioned after noticing his Mom's demeanor that morning. "Huh! I'm fine." "But your face looks pale, Mom." He uttered with concern. "Looks like mommy is about to fall sick," Janice added. "No, not at all. I'm fine, I'm just having a minor headache." She replied with a wave of hands just to allay their worries.The beeping of her phone caught her attention, she glanced at the screen to check the caller; it was an unknown number. "Excuse me." She uttered as she picked up the call. "Morning, pretty Angel." The voice said from the other end. Stella let out a scoff. "Excuse me, who is on the line?" "This is Tochuckwu. I m

Chapter 17 "Don't panic, don't look at your audience directly in the face, and make sure you don't let fear cart away with the things you have studied," Stella instructed as she was helping Felix to get ready for school. They were having an interschool debate and he was among the representative that will be representing their school. "Okay, Mommy." "Walk in there majestically and go get the award like it's only meant for you." "yay! That's it's the spirit." He exclaimed raising one of his hands in the air. Suddenly, his mood changed and he began to murmur inaudible words. "What's wrong Fel?" She asked as she sensed his sudden mood change. "Mommy, are you sure you'll be present? because the last time we had that Talent Hunt show, you and Dad couldn't make it even though you promised us that you will be there." He muttered with a sulk. "I thought we apologise already, Felix?" "Yes, but I have a hunch that same thing will repeat itself again." " No it won't. I promise!" "Ar

"Please, have mercy on me." He shouted as he jumped out of his sleep panting heavily. Susan his nanny, ran towards his bedside to check on him."Calm down, sir." She soothed using her hands to press his chest gently."No, I need her to forgive me. I don't want to die without her forgiveness; please, beg her for me. I'm suffering already, karma is dealing with me." He cried with tears streaming down his cheeks. "I will, sir, but you have to calm down. Should I call the doctor?""No." He disagreed."Okay, just calm down, sir. I think you had a nightmare.""No, it's not a nightmare but a vision aimed to taunt me. I- need- her- to- forgive me." He uttered with a faltering voice."Just calm down, sir." She soothed."I have an idea," he said after a brief moment of silence. "Idea? Tell me about it, sir.""Get me a paper and pen.""Okay, I will be back in a jiffy, sir." She said as she scurried out of his ward."Here is the paper and pen you requested, sir." His nanny said as she walke
