View MoreI woke up not remembering when I'd fallen asleep. My eyes were swollen, my throat raw from crying, but something had changed. That message had planted a seed of strength in me that refused to die.As I prepared for work, I meticulously applied my makeup, brushing over the traces of last night’s tears, transforming my reflection. By the time I was finished, the woman staring back at me almost seemed like the version of myself I recognized again."Sussy! Sussy!" I called out, fastening a gold necklace around my neck."Yes, Ma'am?""Come in. I need you to prepare my breakfast. I'll be eating downstairs this morning."Silence.I turned to find Sussy frozen in the doorway, her eyes wide with shock."Ma?" Her voice trembled with uncertainty."What's with that reaction?""I'm sorry, Ma. I just... for the past few days, you haven't eaten breakfast at home. You always leave early." She wrung her hands nervously. "I wanted to make sure I heard you correctly."Something in her genuine concern ma
"Sussy!" I called out, my voice echoing through the empty hallway, setting off a flurry of footsteps racing up the stairs. Moments later, Sussy appeared in the doorway, her uniform still damp from Anna's attack and her hair pulled back in a hasty ponytail. Yet, despite the chaos, her eyes sparkled with warmth and gratitude."Yes, Ma?" she replied, a hint of curiosity coloring her tone."Please grab all my bags from the guest room. Everything. And clear out anything that doesn’t belong to me from this space. I’m moving back in.""Right away, Ma."I made my way to the wardrobe, flinging the doors open wide. Empty hangers stared back at me, silent sentinels of everything I had set aside. But not anymore. I reached for the first dress Sussy returned with, the fabric soft and inviting in my hands. I smoothed it lovingly between my fingers, savoring the familiarity, before sliding it onto a hanger with care and hanging it in the wardrobe.I heard the heavy footsteps pounding up the stairs
Maya's POVAfter giving it more thought, I concluded what I was doing in the office and went home earlier than usual. The drive home felt different this time. My hands were steady on the wheel. As I stepped inside the living room, I heard Anna's voice shouting from the dining area. The shrill, angry tone made me pause."What sort of dumb maid are you? I told you to make the food peppery and what the hell is this that you prepared?"I moved closer, my footsteps silent on the marble floor."I am sorry, Ma, but..." Sussy's voice was trembling, trying to explain.Before she could finish, I heard a splash and Sussy's gasp of shock. I rushed into the dining room just in time to see water dripping down Sussy's face and soaking into her uniform. Anna stood there, an empty glass in her hand, her face twisted with contempt."Anna!" I called out sharply, moving closer. "What the hell did you just do?"Anna jumped slightly, turning to face me. Her expression shifted instantly, the anger melting
Maya's POV It was already late at night when I finally collapsed onto the guest room bed. My body felt heavy, like someone had replaced my bones with lead. The irony of the situation wasn't lost on me. Sleep was impossible. My mind wouldn't let me rest. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw them. Ethan's hand tangled in Anna's hair. That endless kiss had torn my heart into pieces. Her hand moving in slow circles over her stomach, touching the baby that represented everything I had lost. My mind replayed the scene over and over like a cruel movie I couldn't turn off, each time finding new details to torture me with. I had thought I would be able to get through this. After all, I had already found them together at the hotel. I had already seen the truth with my own eyes. But lying here in the darkness, pushed out of my own bedroom, the reality of it all crashed over me like a wave I couldn't escape. My mind wandered back through the months, searching for signs I had missed. How had
