AWAKE

The following day, Richie woke up feeling weak and looked a little pale. He blinked his eyes open, taking in the familiar surroundings of the hospital room. The first person he called was Leah."Leah?" Richie croaked, his voice barely above a whisper.Leah, who had been dozing in a chair by his bedside, snapped awake. She couldn't contain her joy as she rushed over to him, calling for the doctors. "Richie! Oh my God, you're awake! Doctor, come quick, he's awake!"The doctor came in swiftly, checking Richie's vitals. "Well, Mr. Leo, you gave us all quite a scare. But it looks like you're going to be just fine."Richie managed a weak smile. "Did I miss anything important?"Leah laughed through her tears, hugging him tightly. "You missed me, that's for sure.""Is everyone okay?" Richie asked, his eyes scanning the room for familiar faces. He called everyone by their names—his mum, his dad, Dazzle, and then back to Leah. They had feared he would lose his memory, but he remembered them all

THE THREAT

The next day, Leah was at home with her children when her phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID and saw it was an unknown number. Sighing, she answered. "This is Leah,Who is this?""Mary, We need to talk, Leah. It's urgent," Mary said, her tone serious.Leah rolled her eyes. "Mary?? How were you able to get my number? I'm not interested in anything you have to say.""Anything can be gotten with a little money.. That aside, I called because It's about your future so you have to be interested," Mary replied cryptically.Leah hesitated. "What could be so important about my future that I have to discuss it with you of all people?""Come to the house. We need to discuss this in person," Mary said."The house you threw me out from? What an irony. I won't agree to that. If you want to meet me, I will give you an address of where to meet"...Mary reluctantly agreed and headed over to the address she sent to her cellphone. Leah was wondering what scheme Mary had cooked up this time to invol

THE CULPRITS

Richard lay in his hospital bed, the memory of the accident flashing vividly in his mind. The image of the Hummer van that had rammed into him before Daz arrived was clear. He turned to Daz, who was sitting by his side."Daz, I remember the van," Richard said, his voice steady despite the underlying tension. "It was a Hummer, black, with tinted windows."Daz nodded. "Yeah, I saw it too. But all I could think about was getting you out of that car. By the time I thought to look for the plate number, it was already too far away."Their father, Mr. Leo, had reported the incident to the police as soon as it happened. He was not a man to sit idly by when his family was threatened. If the police didn’t handle it, he was more than willing to take matters into his own hands.That day, Mr. Leo received a call from the police station. He picked up, ever ready to find out who the culprit is."Mr. Leo," said Officer Daniels on the other end, "we have some news regarding your son's case. Can you co

WHAT DO THEY WANT?

Richie looked up, his eyes fixed on Leah. "Hey, you. Mi Lady, everything alright? You look worried. Do you need anything? "Leah managed a smile. "Just some family drama. Nothing I can't handle."Richie reached out and took her hand. "I'm here for you, Leah. Whatever is bothering you, you have to let me know. I am your man."She squeezed his hand, feeling a surge of love for him. "Thank you, Richie. That means more than you know.""So tell me, what is it?" Richie insisted."I told you about my family, remember?""Yes, you did..""The way they treated me. Do you know they still had the effrontery to come to me and say gibberish to me?"Richie just watched and admired her while she explained her ordeal with her family and the betrayals."Who came to you exactly?""Stepmum and her daughter, of course.""What do they want?" Richie was curious and paying close attention."They want me to be a surrogate mother for her daughter and my ex-husband. How? How do they think? After destroying my l

DIVORCE, SHE ASKED?

Emily and her mother, Mary, stormed into the apartment where her husband, Alex, sat on the couch, his face glued to his laptop.“Alex!” Emily yelled.He ignored her, his focus unwavering.“Alex!!!” she shouted louder.Slowly, Alex raised his head, gazing at her without uttering a word.“I hope I didn’t hear Leah correctly, or my ears have turned traitorous. Did you actually go begging Leah for forgiveness?” Emily demanded.“Alex, please tell me she’s lying,” Mary chimed in.“Who told you that?” Alex asked, his eyes returning to his screen.“Leah, of course. Who else?” Emily replied.“Well, she’s telling the truth. Were you doubting her? Do you think I couldn’t do that after we humiliated her?” he shot back.“You let us down, Alex. Why would you do such a thing?” Emily pressed.“I wronged her, we wronged her. Can’t you both ever admit to your wrongdoings?”“Not only have you wronged her in the past, but you also accused her of having an affair with me and wanting to bear my children. N

DISCHARGED

"Alex!!!" Emily yelled. "I won't let you divorce me. Never! Do you really want to leave me for Leah? Are you serious?""We're tangled together, and no one's leaving. Since you want this marriage to be a battle, so be it! You can't bring that adulterer into our home! I won't let you," she added, her voice shaking with anger.Alex turned back and stared at her scornfully. "Mrs. Saint! You’re the righteous one, right? Let's see who begs for a divorce first—me or you?" He continued climbing the stairs, one hand in his pocket, slowly disappearing from view while Emily stood there, mute and speechless."When did he become so unromantic? Where are all the feelings he once had for me? Wasn't he the one who promised to give me the world? To love and cherish me? How did he change so suddenly, all because of Leah, whom he once despised? Why is he making me suffer?" she thought, clutching her head with both hands."How can I stay in this marriage if I'm treated as nothing but a tool, a disposable

MAKING UP WITH MARIAM

Leah sat on the couch, the airy morning sun casting a golden hue over her balcony. She realized she hadn't spoken to Mariam, Mrs. Adams, or her grandmother in ages, and the thought of reconnecting filled her with a mixture of excitement and nervous anticipation.She picked up her phone and dialed Mariam’s number."Hello, Mariam? It’s Leah," she began hesitantly."Leah! Oh my God, it’s been so long! How have you been? Did you really forget me, or was it the whole issue that made you ignore me for weeks?" Mariam's voice was filled with genuine excitement but a hint of worry as well."I’ve been better. I am so sorry for how I treated you, Mariam. I thought "I’ve been better. I am so sorry for how I treated you, Mariam. I thought long and hard about your advice, and I must say, it’s the best advice I’ve ever received. Thank you so much. Anyway, there’s so much to catch up on. Can we meet? Maybe at your place? I have missed seeing you, Mrs. Adams, and grandma.""Absolutely. I’ll be waiting

QUEEN OF SURROGATES

"To ask if I could help them by being their surrogate," Leah replied, rolling her eyes. "It’s like they think I have a Rolodex of potential surrogates in my purse. Do I even look like one to them? Or can I even deal with that?"Mariam chuckled, "Really, they really went far with that. After all they have done to you? They still had the face to come to you with such an offensive offer? That’s rich. You, the mother and queen of all surrogates and the keeper of the surrogate list. What did you say?""Yep, they did. Like I was surprised too. Just exactly the way you are. I told them I’d never do that, but honestly, I don’t want to ever get involved with that family anymore. I have my hands full with Richard and the boys.""Understandable," Mariam said. "I don't think they know who you are yet but I am sure when they find they'd be more respectful. So, what are you going to do? Sounds like a tricky situation, you really need to stop them from coming close to you. You are just beginning a n

I think it’s best if we meet in person to discuss the details along with Mr. Richard," Lorenzo explained."Alright. When can we meet?" Leah asked."How about tomorrow morning? My office, 10: 00 AM?" Lorenzo suggested."Sounds good. We'll be there tomorrow," Leah agreed.After hanging up, Leah felt a mix of apprehension and hope.
