BRIAN'S POV“Are you sure you made all the arrangements with the doctor? Does he know what to say to him?” Lucy asked agitatedly.She was lying on a hospital gurney, all decked up as a sick patient. The customary blue loose dress, the hanging IV tube, the cannula on her wrist and the beeping ECG machine. It was the perfect set up.“If you don't look sick, how would he believe you? You'll agitate yourself by asking so many questions. Act the part, look sick! Let the doctor do his job.” I responded with a tinge of irritation in my tone.“Maurice must never know that I was never pregnant.” She said fearfully. “Everything will be ruined if he comes to know. He'll kick me out of his life for good.”“Then maybe you should have gotten yourself pregnant to cement your position in his life.” I responded nonchalantly.Her problems with my father were the least of my concerns. The only reason I was involving myself in helping her was because it would help me get closer to Glenda She gave me an

GLENDA'S POVI laid awake on the bed, my head propped on my bent elbow, watching the big man asleep.The remnant of stress from the past few days lined across his face. Maurice had had to deal with a lot. A lot that I contributed to. I felt guilty for causing him so much pain, for adding to his pain. We talked at length last night. He told me in detail everything he had discovered. I couldn't even begin to imagine how he must have felt finding out all those dirty secrets and carrying them all by himself.I studied his features. He looked so peaceful asleep. I wished he could keep the peace and wouldn't have to wake up to the harsh reality of life. I leaned in and kissed his head. If only that small gesture could erase all his hurt and pain.He suddenly stirred and blinked awake. A rakish smile adorned his face.“See who is watching me sleep.” He teased as he tittered lightly. His voice was still groggy from sleep.I returned his smile. “Now I see what you enjoy.” I backed him after

GLENDA'S POVI couldn't shake off the ominous feeling that roved over me like a cloud. I kept feeling that something bad would happen the next minute. Maybe I was getting used to something bad happening. The past days had been filled with one ugly event or the other and I had become overly paranoid. But no matter how much I tell this to myself, the feeling just won't go away.It was an unpleasant surprise when Maurice mentioned his trip. I didn't want him to go. My foreboding was getting the better of me and I wanted to keep him close, watch him and protect him from the danger I couldn't see.I stuck around him until he boarded and then his plane took off. I was at the airport watching and silently praying that everything turned out well. I really wanted to be wrong.Maurice texted me just before he had to switch off his phone. He was starting out fine in keeping his word to be in constant communication with me. His gesture made me smile.It was only after I watched his plane depart

GLENDA'S POV A loud thumping sound woke me from the darkness I was floating in. It seemed to grow louder, increasing in its disturbing volume. I felt dizzy, hazy, like a clouded mist. I tried to move but my limbs felt too heavy to comply. Slowly, I fluttered my eyelids open. I was welcomed by a dim yellow light shining brightly beside me. I shut back my eyes. My head was aching badly. I tried to move again, propel myself and access my environment, but the aching weight in my head kept pulling me down. I shut my eyes and cursed at my failed attempt. I opened my eyes again and squinted past the yellow light to look around my environment. My eyes roved over the strange and unfamiliar setting. This was not my room. Where was I? How did I get here? The throbbing pain in my head increased as I tried to remember. Such a simple task brought me such intense pain. After a minute of trying, the memories came flooding into my mind. The bathroom. The feeling that I was being watched. The fe

GLENDA'S POV She came closer and sat beside me, darting her head behind her constantly as though checking if she was being followed. “I knew I'd find you here.” She whispered. Her alert gaze roved around the room. Oh thank Goodness! Finally someone was here to help me. “Elsa… Elsa.” I called out weakly, a tinge of excitement and hope adorned my gruff voice. “Elsa. Brian. Please get me out of here.” I mumbled. “I know.” She whispered in response and placed her right index finger over her lips. “Keep it down.” She darted behind her again. I immediately understood. We needed to stay quiet so we didn't alert my captor. I nodded vigorously to the best of meager strength. “Don't worry, I'll get you out of here.” She reassured me and tried to help me sit up. “You're weak.” She commented. She struggled to lift my limp body. It didn't help that I couldn't assist her by at least raising myself. Whatever Brian had been feeding me was still working actively inside me. “He has been feedi
