Chapter 11

Mia looked up when Brandon finally gave in and agreed to the plan. She knew he was bound to jump in if he was given the perfect nudge. The news about her pregnancy came in hand and proved to be efficient enough but she wasn't being very truthful either. She wasn't pregnant. Her decision to announce it wasn't just to get Brandon completely on her side but at the same time leave no room for reconciliation by causing an even bigger wedge between Brandon and Ava. Mia had invested a whole lot to make sure everything would end up right in her laps. The money, the husband and the kids. What Mia truly wanted was to have anything and everything that Ava had. "Are you sure you won't regret it?" Mia asked Brandon softly, her delicate fingers caressing Brandon's side. " I won't. It's just like you said. As long as my kids don't get involved. Plus, i know Ava won't go easy on me after the baby but now's not the time to talk about it. Get some rest. You'll need it, now that you're nestling o

Chapter 12

Due to Mia's morning sickness, Brandon didn't get to leave for work as early as he usually did. He made sure to diligently take care of Mia first before he started getting ready. "Mia, come here for a second" Brandon called out to Mia and when she joined him, he pulled out two ties. "Black or green? Which one goes best with my suit?" he asked and Mia looked at the ties Brandon was holding in each hand. "I kind of like the green, it makes your eyes pop" she said softly, reached for the same tie and helped him put it on. "Brandon?" Mia called out softly. "Yeah?" Brandon responded, his hand reaching out to brush her hair out of her face and tucked it behind her ear. "It's almost noon. Do you really have to go to work?" she asked, her voice softly, almost pleading. "I have a meeting late in the afternoon then i was thinking about going to see the kids" he answered but soon frowned when he saw the look Mia gave him. "What is it?" he asked as his fingers caressed her cheek. "I di

Chapter 13

It had been three months since the accident. Life for Brandon had gone back to normal. No, it was far better than he could've imagined. His boys had both recovered and he had moved back home with him and Mia. Brandon was also incharge of all of Ava's assests and properties. Luckily for him though, Ava hadn't filed for a divorce yet. This was everything that he had wanted from the beginning. While seated at the dining table eating breakfast, Brandon couldn't appreciate that moment more, his family, or atleast how he wanted his family to be. Mia had been nothing short of wonderful. She had not only worked hard to try and win the boys over but she had been managing their home with so much dedication. Maybe this had been what Brandon had wanted from Ava all along. A wife that was more focused on her household than working. "Alright boys. Get your bags and go get in the car. You're going to be late for school" Brandon announced when they had all finished eating. Mia got some packed l

Chapter 14

Ava's eyes were open but they seemed distant. When the doctor arrived in the room, Mia had already put back the pillow and grabbed her purse. Although visibly shaken, she played it off as relief that her friend had finally woken up. "Mrs Thompson?" the doctor called out after examining her eyes. "My name is Doctor Mathews. I'm your attending doctor. Can you hear me?" he asked but Ava didn't budge. "Mrs Thompson. Can you blink twice if you can hear me. Yes?" the doctor urged on and after a minute of no reaction, Mia secretly smiled to herself. "Maybe it's just reflex or something? I heard one can still be in a comma in this state" Mia said and the doctor sighed. He looked over to the nurse across from him and the woman turned to Mia. "Ma'am, can you leave first so the doctor can examine Mrs Thompson?" the nurse asked and Mia feigned concern. "I was just trying to make sure she was--" "Mrs Thompson? Can you do that again? Squeeze my hand if you can hear me" Doctor Mathews said a

"What do you mean she's lost her memory?" Mia asked in a hushed whisper after Brandon had come back from the doctor's office."That's what Ben said. Apparently, when she woke up, she didn't even remember him. Not even her name!" Brandon answered. His eyebrows were knitted together, forming a deep frown at the revelation."That's impossible. When she opened her eyes, she was looking at me, with so much... anger" Mia said, getting chills as she thought back to when Ava opened her eyes. "Wait, did you say Ben?" Mia asked, curious as to why Brandon was so casual with Ava's doctor. "Is that Ava's doctor? Do you know him?""Ben, Ava and i all studied abroad for a while before Ava and i moved back here to join you" Brandon explained then shook his head. "Oh so that's why he was so cold to me earlier" Mia said softly after having pieced everything together""But that's beside the point Mia, focus" he urged her and sighed softly. "What are we going to do?" Brandon asked.Mia, confused and sli

Chapter 16

Ava had made tremendous progress since she woke up but despite it all, she couldn't remember who she was. Brandon had taken her home, atleast that was what she was told when she was discharged. Ava's idea of home was very different from what she had in mind. She expected something warm, familiar even but she all she felt was emptiness. She was like a stranger in her own life.It seemed that Brandon already had someone else. There was no pictures of them together, just one's with Mia and the kids. Her kids, she was told. It felt very uncomfortable staying there, especially when Mia clearly didn't want her there."Excuse me Brandon?" Ava called out one morning when Brandon was leaving for work. She hurried over to where he was, her pink floral dress hugging her slim body under the white cardigan she was wearing. "Yes, Ava?" Brandon asked when he stopped to look at her. "Do you need something?" he asked and she shook her head slowly. "No. No... I mean yes. I just wanted to ask you some

Chapter 17

“Ava, we need to talk” Brandon said as soon as he walked into Ava's room. He had changed into a pair of sweatpants and a shirt, making it obvious that he wasn't going to work anymore.“Talk? It seems you've already decided i am in the wrong” Ava accused Brandon while shaking her head.“I found you choking a pregnant woman. What was i supposed to think? As a fellow woman, aren't you supposed to be understanding? Mia's pregnant, she might say something things that might rub you off in the wrong way but can't you be more understanding?” Brandon asked as he leaned against the wall and looked at Ava.“Can't you ask her to extend me the same courtesy? I'm walking around with no memories of who i was. I feel stupid having to ask what i was like. I don't even know what i liked, my allergies..” Ava said before she looked at Brandon. Brandon sighed softly and pulled up a chair to sit on. “Alright fine. I'll answer any question you have. Think of it as a way to ease up on the tension and you ca

Chapter 18

“Sign here and here and lastly here-” Brandon watched as Ava signed page after page of their divorce papers and property transfer papers. His eyes bore intensely onto the pen and for a moment, his mouth moved, as if he was about to stop Ava. Mia's hand dug deep into his shoulder, already aware of what he was thinking.It was those clueless yet trustful eyes of Ava that made his heart sink, more from guilt than anything. He didn't want to hurt Ava but he also knew they couldn't go back to how they were even if he changed his mind now.“What did you say these were, again?” Ava asked, her pen hanging over the last paper she needed to sign. Brandon cleared his throat and looked at the strange woman standing a few feet away from all of them. “It's just for business. We have been expecting some shipments for months and your signature is needed so they can be released from the port. Long story short, it's just boring business stuff” Brandon explained softly. Ava just looked at him, her eye

Chapter 19

It had been three weeks now since Ava signed the papers yet Mia couldn't enjoy all the peaks of being rich. Brandon had been pushing back sending Ava away, straining his already strained relationship with Mia.Mia was currently on her phone while passing glances at Ava who had been watching TV. Brandon was in his home office working since it was the weekend and he didn't particularly have to go to the office.“Ava?” Mia called out to her ex- best friend, her voice calm yet filled with so much malice.Ava reluctantly looked away from the Tv and towards Mia. “Do you think you'd be able to forgive yourself?” Mia asked and Ava frowned.“What?” Ava asked and Mia simply chuckled.“No, nothing” Mia replied and Ava's frown deepened even more.“It's not nothing. Can you tell me what's going on? What did you mean?” Ava asked softly. Something felt wrong in the way Mia spoke to her. It sounded like a taunt.“It's nothing. Just, when you start to remember things, i don't think you'd be able to

Chapter 20

Ava was distraught as she packed her bags. What happened earlier couldn't stop replaying in her head. The way Mia maliciously framed her for pushing her. The feeling of her right grip on her hand was still very raw. She pulled the sleeve of her shirt and looked at the mark left from Mia's tight grip.“ That crazy bitch” Ava whispered.She wiped her tears away, as she stuffed her clothes in her bag. She didn't bother folding them, after all, Brandon asked that he shouldn't find her there when he came back.“How could he be so stupid? He only believes Mia. Not me” she added under her breath and broke into a fresh sob. It was pathetic, she knew but she couldn't help herself.When she was done packing her bags, she dragged them to the door and stopped to look back at the now silent and somewhat lonely home. Although she didn't have her memories, she couldn't help but feel sad for leaving. For some reason, it felt like she was leaving a very large part behind her.Dragging her suitcase out
