CRUEL REALITY

3 cm invasive tumor in situ… Stage 3… Metastasis is present… Kendall’s hands trembled as she read her test result. She swallowed thick lumps of saliva that were about to choke her. “Wh- what does… this mean, doctor?” Her voice was trembling so was her whole body, coupled with her labored breathing. Even though she knew what it meant, she rather lived in denial. “Miss Kendall,” Doctor Sophia took off her glasses and focused on the patient in front of her. “You have stage three cervical cancer.” She dropped the heartbreaking news. “No… I don't… doctor, this is not my result.” Tears rolled down Kendall’s cheeks as she kept on arguing. There was no way that she would accept this result as hers. She only had pain and heavy bleeding… And a few minor symptoms. She was sure that there was a mix-up somewhere. There had to be. “I can't have cancer,” Kendall heaved a sigh. It felt like her whole world was crumbling before her and she was too weak to put the smallest pieces togethe

HASTY DECISION

“How could you?”Alicia was furious as her voice took over the living room. This had to be a joke.She ran down to Kendall’s house after seeing the multiple mixed calls only to be given double strikes; Kendall hadn't only slept with a stranger, but she had already called Doctor Sophia, saying that she was ready for the IVF procedure.“What would I have done?” Kendall wasn't having it. Matter of fact, she was done trying to explain herself."Anything..." "Just not messing around." She shrugged.Kendall hated that she was diagnosed with cancer, and had woken up in bed with a stranger, with the effect of the alcohol wearing off and she felt terrible. Like every other girl, she had the fantasy of a small family and having her babies, not opting for a sperm donor.“I'm sorry for not being by your side at the time you needed me most,” Alicia apologized."You don't have to be." "All that I expect from you, is love, support, and kind words…""That's if you are dealing with so much, and you're

TWIST OF FATE

“Anywhere but home.”Jason informed Lucas after getting into the back of his black-tainted car. He was done with work for the day, but for fear of his mother breathing down his throat, he'd rather stay out late.“Alright, sir,” Lucas, his driver responded.He didn't need to think twice, he knew the exact place that his boss frequented when he needed to escape his realities. Slowly, he increased the volume of the music, trying to soothe his boss.“Turn it off.”Jason hissed, tugging on his tie that was suddenly becoming too suffocating.“I'm sorry, sir.”He was already exhausted from today’s hassle, but he had to quickly fix a few meetings for tomorrow. His eyes were glued to his tab the whole time, as he immersed himself in work.The rest of the journey to the club was calm and boring. In about half an hour, they arrived at the spot and Jason went to the bar. They didn't do much security check-up on him."Brandy is fine." He told the bartender who jotted down his order. He looked arou

STRANGE ENCOUNTER

“Mother, it's too early,” Jason grunted as he knotted his necktie and adjusted his black pants.“Too early for your mother to have a word with you?” The ever-cheesy Catherine followed her son around.Her hair was a rich silver with streaks of gold and styled in a grand puff. She had a sizable nude gown that matched her skin tone and a light brush of pink lip gloss. For sixty-one, she defied the number.Jason sipped from his teacup and set it down on a saucer. He knew what his mother had to say and was avoiding the topic by all means possible.“How about we do that when I return from work?”"Then I would be in the salon fixing my hair or getting spar treatment." "We need to talk now."Sealing her point, she stopped by the door, silently telling him that no one would leave the room until they had a discussion. The last time she sat on the foot of his bed in protest, he ran out without remorse. She wasn't about to make that mistake now. Yesterday, he purposely ignored her calls and sneak

WEIRD PROPOSAL

“Get out of my office!”Jason thundered, refraining from throwing off the coffee his supposedly new assistant brought.Kendall was still in shock, just staring, wide-eyes. Her smart mouth had ruined things for her once more.“Why are you still gawking?” "Leave!"“I’m sorry, sir…”"You’re sorry?" "After acting so rude, you're now sorry?" He laughed at her in cheerful mockery. "Would you be sorry if I were a gate man or a random worker..." "Maybe a jobless person like yourself?"Jobless? Kendall pressed her lips in a fine line instead. She desperately needed this job.Jason took his office phone and dialed Ryan’s number. He had to come and fix his mess. "Didn't he have a proper interview before employment?"“He did, and I was the best...”"Do you even know when to be quiet?" "I wasn't talking to you!""Forgive me, sir."“Ryan, I need you here this minute!” He dropped the call with that.“Please, sir…” Kendall continued to plead. “We were both at fault…”“How dare you?!”Jason looked up

SUICIDAL AGREEMENT

"He what?”Alicia batted her lids nonstop, confused after listening to Kendall. She was sure her mind had been playing a prank on her.“It just happened…”“Why does everything just keep happening to you lately?”Kendall puffed, knowing Alicia was right. But in this case, it wasn't her fault, and she was also in a desperate position.“Why would a stranger propose to you?”“He didn't, okay?” Kendall corrected her. “He just asked me to act as his mistress for the weekend.”“And then what?”“He shows me to his mother over dinner, and we're good.”Alicia paused, processing all that she said. She found it hard, nearly impossible that a man of such status would go about proposing to random ladies if he didn't have an ulterior motive.“So, what's in it for him?”“I was kinda rude to him, and he knows that I desperately want my job.” Kendall began. “Instead of hiring a girl and paying for her services, he figured he could use me for free… Well, I get to keep my job.” She swiftly added.Suddenl

WHIRLWIND ARRANGEMENT

“I'm outside, don't keep me waiting.”Jason informed Kendall once she answered the phone on the second dial.“Who's that?”“What?” He scoffed, he was quite pissed. “Are you sleeping, because it would be absurd that you haven't saved my number.”“Oh… I'm sorry, sir…”Jason ended the call after a loud sigh.“And somehow, she's meant to convince my mother that we're a couple, how persuasive of her.”He flipped his watch to see that it was already 3 pm, the exact time that he informed her of his coming.Jeez!The drive to Tyler’s spa and beauty world was roughly an hour, which meant that they didn't have much time left.“Oh, my god.”It was over fifteen minutes and Kendall was still not out. He was about to open the door when he saw her petite figure walk out of the house.She looked so simple, maybe she spent the whole day combing her hair.“Good afternoon, sir.” She greeted him once she was beside him.“It's Jason, for today.” He reminded her with a stern face.“How about Jay?”“Jason,

RIVAL'S PLAN

"Jason has drawn the battle line." Thane was confused. He looked at Clara, his mother, and Mr. William’s mistress. She vehemently tapped her foot on the ground in quick succession, and now, she began to pace about, looking like an angry bird. Jason was his step-brother, and he wasn't a fan of him either, but he figured his mother might be overreacting. Most times, it was like that with her. "My brother?" "What did he do…" “He's not your brother,” Clara rebuked him instantly. She looked so furious like she was willing to set the whole place ablaze if given the chance to. “Point taken,” Thane didn't argue. He had seen Catherine and his mother fight tooth and nail from his birth, so that statement was not up for debate. “What did he do, mother?” He needed to be clear still. “Everything.” Clara sighed loudly. “He brought home a woman,” she laughed wryly. “He wants to drag property with you, he must think he's wise.” “Mum, there's no need to get worked up, she could be anyone, mayb

THE VOID

“No!”Kendall disagreed, her breathing was labored. Not even Jason could control this level of emotions.They were now in the car after Jason agreed to his mother’s ridiculous request. Kendall had managed to comport herself until they got to the car. Now that she was away from his weird family, she couldn't keep it in anymore.The major reason she kept quiet in the house, was because she loved Catherine and how accommodating she was. At that moment, keeping her job didn't matter anymore.“Just listen, will you?” Jason demanded, trying to be civil.She laughed and softly pressed the bottom of her lips together, filtering her words. "We both know that there isn't any workable means to this." "I just can't marry a stranger…"“And you think I'm excited about getting tied to you?” Jason clapped back.“Great!” She shrugged. “For the first time, we share the same expectations.” She sighed loudly. "We can just go our separate ways, I've done my part of the deal after all."“Name your price.”

FATAL ERROR

You will never forget that I'm your boss, respect boundaries, and above all, no strings attached.Jason reads his rules out for Kendall. Since they were doing this, it was only right that they got all their cards out on the table.They were in a cozy restaurant that was still luxurious. He had this picked because it provided them with more privacy than any other spot that he could think of.He wore a simple black and white striped shirt and well-tailored pants. Kendall, as ever, was pretty in the most basic things. And lately, all she did was glow.“Are we clear?” He demanded.She squinted for a while before dropping her copy of the agreement on the table.“I have no issues with your rules, but you're yet to have mine.” She debated."All you needed to do was hand me a copy."She rolled her eyes. "I didn't know that it would be this formal…""Really, not formal?" He was sick and tired of her driving him nuts, and it was annoying that she kept at it.What he couldn't tell was if she was
