Old wounds

“Is that you, Father?” Crystal asked and the man paused slightly before turning towards her direction. From the way he narrowed his eyes, she could tell he doesn’t recognize her. “Who are you?” He asked cautiously and her eyebrows raised immediately, he had forgotten her, but had it been that long? Yes, it has… after all it had been twelve years already, twelve years has passed since he woke up one morning and left them, never to return. “You don’t recognize me anymore? Father?” She asked again, discerning that he might just be his lookalike and not her real father, she was about to tell him she made a mistake when he snapped his fingers. “I think—” “Cassandra?” His eyes softens and he smiled. “Look how tall you are now, the last time I saw you, you were about like this.” He gestured with his hands; he was smiling but she could feel the force in his smile; everything about his energy was forced, she wasn’t sure maybe he knew who she was from the start and he was just pretendi

Shirtless

Crystal woke up in a good mood, she rarely woke up feeling like she was the queen of sunshine, but it was different today even though she had a terrible night. She sat up in bed and clipped her toenails first since she had never modeled shoes before; she was starting to feel conscious about her toes, she wanted everything to be in perfect order. She heard a knock on the door and she froze for a while, she glanced at the time, it was just some minutes past six am the morning; it would probably be Petra or Sheryl; they had a habit of waking up early to worry her, she picked her clipped nails in her hands and walked towards the door. She opened the door, but instead of being met by Petra or Sheryl, her eyes met with Kayden’s silver eyes. The soft glow of light filtering through the half-opened door cast an illumination on his form, highlighting the chiseled contours of his body. His broad shoulders and well-defined chest were bare and bathed in the golden light. The soft fab

Emergency

“Jake you won’t believe this.” Martinez shouted running towards Jake with his phone in his hands, Jake pushed himself up from the couch he was laid. “You need to see this.” “What are you shouting for?” Jake said with a slight frown on his face, he was hoping to get some sleep; he was unable to get some rest during the previous night, as he couldn’t stop thinking about Crystal. She had gotten even more beautiful than she was four years ago; he was unable to sleep knowing full well she was in the embrace of another man... It was hard to admit it but he was jealous. She had no right to be happy after everything she had done to him; it would be unfair if she lived so happily with her husband while he suffers miserably.“I want to take some rest.” “Its crystal,” He said handing him the phone, Jake sat up properly and collected the phone from Martinez; and scrolled through the pictures on Hi-Tweet and it was indeed Crystal. “There are a lot of her pictures trending on the inter

Hospital

The continuous beeping of some sort of machine woke Crystal up, and as soon as she opened her eyes; they absorb the bright white lights of the room. She shut her eyes slightly, wincing in pain, she opened them again and noticed that she seemed to be in a hospital, the pungent smell of drugs made her even more sick than she already is. She groaned the only thing she felt in her body was pain; a body ripping pain She groaned as she tried to get up, when I felt something heavy against her neck and one of her leg was casted and hanged in the air. She hissed in frustration, when she noticed she was handicap.What the hell happened? Yes, she received an anonymous text that told her to come to the rooftop and she was pushed down the stairs. She could not even move her head to the side that was when she noticed that there was a heavy cast around her neck. Suddenly, the door opened and Kayden came in his brow furrowed in a long frown, he looked in her direction with an irri

An Unseen Predator

“Madam Smith, you need to let us wash you. Mr. Smith said, you had not taken your bath in two weeks and you stink.” her eyes widened in embarrassment, was that what he said? That bastard… “I don't stink, I only smell like drugs.” She defended herself, she held the top of her dress together, they had tried to force her to take the dress off, but because she was struggling too much they left her alone and tried to convince her with words. She clutched the dress even closer to her chest, preventing Petra, Sheryl, or anyone else from touching her. “Come on, you have to wash up.” Petra said with a small frown on her forehead, her worry increasing as the time passes. “I can do that myself.” She insisted. “No, you can't.” Petra yelled again, now very frustrated by her attitude, there was literally nothing to be embarrassed about, because they were all women. “Mr. Smith carefully gave us order to make you clean.” Petra moved closer to her again and as she reached for Crystal again,

Treasure them.

“Can I speak to you for a minute, Paige?” Kayden asked as soon as Paige left Crystal's room, she jolted in surprise, because she wasn’t expecting to see him right in front of the bedroom door. She let out a sigh from relief when she noticed that it was just Kayden and not some ghost that she had imagined in her head. “It’s pretty late right now and I don’t think you can go home. So, I suggest you just stay in the guest room.” He said as he folded his arms across his chest, he stared down at her, a mischievous glint in his eyes; he noticed her initial surprise and felt it was comical, he didn’t laugh obviously but his expression was equally mockingly. She was exactly like Crystal in so many ways. “No, I’m fine.” Paige said with steel like expressions, she didn’t know how long he had been silently waiting in front of the door like a predator, and she wasn’t so sure if he had heard anything they discussed. “I need to go home, I still live with my parents and they must be so worr

A Silvered Lining

“Can I come in?” Crystal popped her head from the door, her blue eyes resting on both Mr. and Mrs. Smith, the smell of antiseptic and disinfectant in the hospital room filled the air as she entered, Mr. Smith was laid on the hospital bed, shrouded by crisp white sheets. The tubes and wires connected to machines wound their way from their source to the wrists of the poor old man. He was plopped up on a stack of pillows, his face was pale and sickly and shadows of exhaustion clung beneath his eyes, and as soon as he saw her, his eyes narrowed from a smile. “Crystal, how are you?” Lorenza asked with a small smile, she got up from where she was seated and strolled towards Crystal, Paige was supporting her from the side; it hasn’t even been one week since she got rid of the cast away from her neck and her leg but she was already up and doing. “Should you be walking around like this?” Mr. Connell asked curiously as he watched Crystal limp towards them. Lorenza pulled her into a wa

Flirting gone wrong

“Miss Smith, you should come downstairs for lunch.” Petra said with a small smile, Crystal had been sketching all day, she was so engrossed in what she was doing that she didn’t notice it when Petra opened the door or when she came in. Petra loved her diligence, even while she was sick she requested to be handed her drawing tablet. “What are you drawing?” Petra whispered into her ears and Crystal jolts in surprised and quickly hugged her drawing tablet to her chest, but Petra had already gotten a glimpse of it. “Petra, I didn’t know you were here.” She answered with an uneasy smile, hoping that Petra didn’t see it, or she would think the worst. “Is that Kayden you are drawing?” She probed with a burgeoning excitement and Crystal felt a small flush on her cheeks, she had been caught. “Let me see.”“Don’t tell anyone. ” She warned first and Petra did the sign as if she zipped her mouth, that was the only time Crystal was able to trust her and show her the drawing. “Yes, it is Kayde

Coping Mechanism

Sebastian rushed through the hallway but he found his mother sitting outside the room, on the visitors chair, her face was buried in her palms, he knew she was crying. He stopped for a while before he walks up to her quietly. “Mom,” He called her softly and she glanced up at him, the little details of her face, just like her ears, her eyes and the tip of her nose, all of them were now red. It was probably from crying too much. “Sebastian.” She stood up as well and he knew that she craved comfort, he pulled her into a big hug and she held unto him tightly as she cried into his chest. “Connell left me, he left me.” “I’m sorry mom. “ He said unable to form other words or other thoughts, even though Mr. Connell was very sick he never believed he could die, after all he was a strong man; he was supposed to get discharged tomorrow but he died in the morning. “What am I going to do without him, Sebastian, how am I going to live?” She asked and at this point Sebastian was also as c

Meeting the Brother-in-law

“I would go with you.” Crystal said drying her eyes, she can’t believe that Mr. Connell was dead; she spoke to him on the phone with Petra just the previous day. “I want to come as well.”“No, you should stay here.” He said with the same cold expressionless face from minutes ago. “I will go to the hospital and come back.”“But I want to—“ He interrupted her sharply with a bang to the wall, she flinched sharply. “Just stay back and do as you are told!” He yelled his eyes narrowing in anger; she had never seen him lose his composure that much before. “He’s not your father, so don’t even try to pretend to care, you can shed your crocodile tears in your room!” That was the last he said before he left and Crystal broke down again, in tears, and almost immediately Petra came running in with a tears in her eyes also; Kayden probably told her. She got down on her knees as well, and held he hands. “I heard about Mr. Connell.” She said before pulling Crystal into a heartwarming hug, the
