Chapter 1 : Love story

It was late that day and neither Shawn nor Sophia knew the dangers that awaited them in the dark. They staggered and walked out of the beach looking all drunk and gullible for harm. While they strode in the dark, to the road, locked in each other's arms, a fine scent of danger swirled the air but Shawn and Sophia were all drunk and laughed it away. Soon, they heard gunshots. Joana, who had been following the drunk couples, halted to the red flag and bad signal. Derrick and his men were out for war and it almost seemed like a World War. Joana gazed at her cousin, Sophia, and a pang of terror overshadowed her. "We had fun at the party today. Damn! I wish the party never got to end.,” Planting a peck on Shawn's soft chin, Sophia recounted the fun she had at her birthday party hosted by her boyfriend, Shawn to celebrate their 4th relationship anniversary...

Thanks for the ride home. You rescued us from an impending danger,” Joanna appreciated the stranger after they arrived home. "Stop keeping late nights. It's extremely dangerous out there.

What's your name?” He introduces himself and offers a handshake. “I'm Joanna, and these are my, oops.” Joana paused, seeing Sophia and Shawn strolling inside the house, ignoring Matthew. "I apologize for that. That's my cousin, Sophia, and her boyfriend Shawn. Blame it on liquor. We just celebrated their 4th relationship anniversary. But trust me, your kindness isn't taken for granted.” Joanna apologized on their behalf. "It's fine. Just stay out of trouble,” Matthew smiled, got back inside the car, and drove off. "Phew!

You haven't told us why you got dismissed from the office.” Sophia fumed at Shawn, who was seated on the couch, placing both hands on the head."I had an outburst with a colleague at work this morning and we both got dismissed. I pleaded for a second chance, but my boss won't even listen to me,” he explained, expressing his disappointment. What a difficult time for both couples, who solely depended on their job for survival. Now their only stream of income is gone. Shawn was the reason they found themselves in the awkward situation.

Chapter 4 : Trouble in Paradise

"Hey Hun. Guess what just happened right now? I just got a job as an office assistant to a CEO.” Sophia rushed home immediately and disclosed the news to Shawn. "You didn't tell me you were going shopping. What's with the groceries you are holding?” he wasn't fascinated a bit by her new job. He shunned and focused all attention on the groceries packs in her possession. "I just told you I secured a job, and you're not even bothered. I expected more,” she reminded him, dropping the packs on the couch. "A while ago, you stepped out to cool off, and now you're here with packs of groceries? Come on, it's not adding up. What's this job all about and who connected you?” "So, there's this old friend of mine I met at the lounge. Remember I said I was going to cool off, right? I told her everything that's been happening lately, and she offered to help. Right in my presence, she called her Dad and told him everything. Without hesitation, he gave me the company's address and asked me to show

Chapter 5 ; Split

Another day had dawned. The rays of early sunlight lit up the streets and brought a pearly glow into the sky as the chorus of melodic birdsong drifted in. It's the most important day of Sophia's life. She wasn't a coffee drinker, but she lost sleep last night thinking about her new job and the opportunities that awaited her. Even though her boyfriend wasn't still in full support, Sophia was still determined and focused. It was just 6:30 am and Sophia was already up, and anticipating her new job. She can't wait to meet new people and make friends, too. She opened her wardrobe to select the best dress to complement her position as an office assistant but was lost and developed a headache. She found none of the outfits worthy enough. Finally, she caught a glimpse of one, a beautiful red gown. “This fits perfectly,” She smiled in excrement and stood in front of the mirror to admire her beauty. After applying a slight make-up, Sophia dashed to the living in her high heels. She was comp

Chapter 6 : Chasing her back

"Sophie, what do you think you're doing? How dare you walk out on me? Have you suddenly lost respect for me? I dare you to come back home now. We still have unfinished business. Can't you see it's late?" Shawn glanced through the window and called Sophia repeatedly, trying to make her return but she ignored him and kept walking faster as though Shawn never existed."Did you see what your cousin did? Sophia just walked out on me. She's not even responding to me. When did all of this start? She wasn't like this before.Did you two plan this? If I find out about your involvement in this, I'll forever be angry at you. You should be a mediator and not a destroyer.``He turned to Joanna to vent his frustration. He has every reason to believe that Joanna might have been involved in this. Perhaps, Joana herself orchestrated it all."Shawn? Please stop this madness. It's making me so uncomfortable. I don't deserve any of this treatment from you.How would you think so low of me? You know I don

CHAPTER 7 : An excerpt from the past.

Shawn gritted his teeth remembering the adorable moments he shared with Sophia in the past. The only question running through his mind was. "Could my father be right after all? He warned me about her but I refused to listen," His father's warnings are starting to play back in his head. This was the moment he wished he had listened to his father.

His eyes are now widened to the bitter truth.It got to a point where Shawn's father wanted to introduce Shawn to Anita Baker, his friend's daughter who was wealthy too but according to Shawn, he wanted someone from a decent background and he felt Sophia fit in that category perfectly.

Feeling sorry for letting out Sophia’s little secrets, Joana slumped back on the couch. She peeked at Shawn, he was in all his pain. “ Shawn, you should go and sleep now. It's been a whole lot of trouble for you today. You need to be sane to proffer a better solution to the problem at hand” Joanna pleads. She yawns from exhaustion and rests her back on the couch for comfort. “ You're suddenly feeling guilty for Sophia, aren't you? “ Shawn blamed Joana. He feels betrayed by her too. She knew all along that her cousin was a cheat but hid it from him despite being close to her. “ Oh, c’ mon, Shawn, I'm tired of this argument already. You and Sophia are two adults. You can sort yourselves out. I'm out of here” Joana stomps to her room. The argument was killing her down and she could not continue sitting with Shawn. “I see!

She had barely spent days with Mathew and her whole life transformed into something else. “ Baby, I want us to start making arrangements on how to get married. You know I need to secure the deal I told you about right?” Matthew said. He kissed Sophia’s lips the more as he lay on the couch in his exquisite living room.Sophia giggled and moaned a bit as his hands fondled other parts of her body but she suddenly halted him.“ What's that look on your face, my love?” Matthew was stunned at Sophia’s sudden change. “ Can you give me more time to process this marriage? You know I have to break up with my boyfriend and convince my Dad about this whole plan. Besides, why does this have to be a contract marriage?” Sophia’s face turned pale. Matthew needs to explain why he wanted her as a contract wife and not his real wife. Matthew chuckled at Sophia’s response and this poked out the

“ Sweetheart” Matthew called Sophia the next morning. “ I got you another phone. Sorry for damaging your phone. I promise never to try such again “ He patted Sophia’s hair gently.Sophia opened her eyes faintly to embrace the rays of the sun. Matthew was holding a brand-new phone in his hands. The phone flashed into her eyes and she blinked twice. “ I don't need your phone. I can get myself a phone if I want “ Sophia frowned. She was mad that she slept on the couch all through last night and Mathew did not try checking on her. Is this his true self? She had been used to cuddling and had never slept alone all by herself before. “ You think buying me a phone would solve the problem at hand? I don't believe you left me and dozed off throughout the night ““ I'm so sorry, I slept off. Never knew you left the room “ Matthew pleaded trying to make Sophia happy.
