Strained Meeting

Mama! Papa! I don't want to be here. Don't leave me here. I promise. I'll be a good girl. I'll do anything. Just don't give me to them." the little girl cried, chasing after a woman and a man who were leaving through the gate of a large house. When she caught up to her mother, she immediately hugged her waist to stop her. The woman abruptly stopped. But she didn't turn to the little girl, instead she forcefully removed her child's hand from around her and pushed the little girl, causing her to fall to the grass. The little girl looked at her mother with a confused expression as tears continued to stream down her face. She didn't understand why her parents had to leave her. At the back of her mind, the little girl wondered why her? She's not the only child her parents. But why do they have to leave her? Did she do something they didn't like? As far as she remembers, she did everything they wanted. She did everything to be loved by them. "You stay here. Don't be stubborn, or you'll fa

"What are you doing here?" Edward asked as Abigail entered the warehouse, carrying a pillow and bedsheet with a mosquito coil and mosquito repellent lotion on top. When Edward's secretary saw what the girl was carrying, she immediately stood up to take the items from Abigail's hands."Thank you," the young woman said to the man, glancing at him briefly before turning to Edward. Her parents had agreed to let the young man spend the night, but they wouldn't let him stay in their house. Even though she knew her parents would be angry, she still went out to bring him things he would need for sleeping. Knowing Edward's circumstances, she knew he wasn't used to sleeping in such a place, and she felt ashamed because of what happened. She couldn't disobey her parents, though. She had no voice in that house. If she hadn't gotten pregnant, she might not have been able to return to that place."Why aren't you sleeping yet?" Edward asked the young woman. "I'm worried. You're not used to this pla

"Ma," Abigail whispered, standing outside the gate. The woman heard her call and stopped. When she saw the young woman outside the gate, she looked like she had seen a ghost. A sweet smile spread across her lips when she saw her mother's face. Despite her frailty and the visible wrinkles, she still saw the beauty in her mother's face, the face she had yearned for. The young woman wondered if her mother missed her as much as she had missed her. They hadn't seen each other in years.When the visitors noticed her mother stop, they looked at her. Even her brother and father stopped. They looked at her and her belongings. Their faces showed surprise when they saw her in that place. It's not surprising. The people who saw her were also surprised. She noticed everyone staring at her hair. Its color was really striking. They weren't foreigners, but she was born with that hair color. She even heard one of her father's friends ask him if she was his child. She was the only one who didn't look l

Finding Home

Too Close To Handle/Fleurdelis

"What are you doing here." Abigail heard a baritone voice, accompanied by something touching her shoulder. When Abigail heard that voice, she suddenly returned to the present and looked up. When she looked up, she saw Edward, and he had placed his coat on her shoulder. Did Edward see that she was outside, so he came to find her?“Is this where you plan on staying for the night?” Edward asked, looking at the woman. “It’s cold outside. Do you want to get sick? Even if you don’t care about yourself. Don’t forget you’re carrying my child. I don’t want anything to happen to her.” Edward said to Abigail"Why are you here? Why are you still awake?" the woman asked the man. "I could also ask the same thing." Edward said to the woman."The door is locked. They seem to be asleep." The young woman said. Edward looked at the house door. He doubted that they didn't hear Abigail calling them. From what he saw earlier and the way the young woman looked now, it seemed to confirm his suspicion that t

Weight of a New Beginning

When they returned, Abigail was surprised because Edward immediately took her to a fashion boutique and had her styled. Even though she was still confused about what was happening, after she was styled, the young man took her to a courthouse. It was only then that it dawned on the young woman that she and Edward were getting married. And their parents weren't at their wedding. The only ones present to witness their marriage were Edward's secretary and a friend of his."Hi." Edward's friend greeted Abigail with a smile. Abigail smiled back simply and looked at him. Besides Edward's secretary, she didn't recognize the two other people with him. She didn't know how to act in front of them.“Just Relax.” Said the woman with Edward’s friend. “Laylah. Wife of Akira.” She said, extending her hand and glancing at the young man talking to Edward and his secretary."Abigail," Abigail said simply. As she looked at the woman, she couldn't help but feel intimidated. There was a clear difference be
