KATERINA

“What are you doing here? Have you been following me?” she asked through gritted teeth and I couldn’t help it but roll my eyes, finding her question ridiculous.

“Come on, don’t think high of yourself, Stephanie. Why in the world would I follow you when I have a thousand things to do?” I asked with a raised eyebrow, the corner of my lips curving into a smirk.

“Long time no see, don’t pretend you didn’t miss me.” I said sarcastically, the smirk on my lips broadening. Her jaw twitched when she heard my words, making me feel good. “To be honest, I kind of missed you, mother. You were always on my mind, every single day.” I pretended to be emotional, playing around with her mind. It was true she has been on my mind for the past four years.

Stephanie rolled her eyes upon hearing my words, not believing me. The truth is, she crossed my mind often and each time her face flashed in my mind, my heart clenched painfully. Heaving a slow deep sigh, I discarded the thoughts, focusing

    KATERINA “I…I don't know what happened to your dad, Katerina. I already told you everything that I know.” She said, avoiding looking me in the eyes because she knew damn well that I could see through them and realise that she was lying on my face.“I don't know what really happened. I was in the kitchen preparing lunch when I heard someone shouting from the living room and when I rushed there, I saw your dad laying on the floor.” She explained, struggling to get the words out of her mouth.The corner of my lips curved into a smile. I could tell that she was lying to me, again. I held her hand on the table.“I can see it through your eyes, nanny. I know you can feel it yourself that you're not telling the truth. This is what you told me four years ago. Back then, I could tell that you weren't telling the truth either.” She swallowed sharply when she heard my words, slowly pulling her hand from my hold and looked away.“I remember you telling me that…we should always say the truth beca

    KATERINA Nanny welcomed me so warmly and now I was sitting on one of the couches. I looked around the house, my lips curving into a smile. The house looked beautiful from the inside and everything was arranged in order.It had the warmth that the house should have. I couldn't explain why but I felt so comfortable to be in nanny's house. I relaxed on the couch, allowing myself to feel like I was at home. I didn't have any idea what was cooking but…whatever it was, it smelled delicious. Nanny always cooked delicious food. She's the one who taught me how to cook and I’ll forever be grateful to her. I used to spend most of the time with her in the kitchen, watching as she cooked…I wiped tears from my eyes using the back of my hand, the smile on my lips broadening. I still couldn't believe that I had found my nanny, safe and sound. It felt surreal. If it was a dream, I didn't want to wake up from it.“Here is the herbal tea for you.” She materialised from where she had disappeared to a

    KATERINA It felt as though time was moving in slow motion. Raising my head, I stared at the ticking digital wall clock, the knot at the tip of my stomach tightening. It seemed as though a century had passed by even though it had been about two hours since My lawyer left the office. Each passing microsecond meant that Nanny’s life was in danger.I have tried to get lost in work but I just couldn't concentrate no matter how much I tried. A frustrated sigh escaped my lips when I gave it a thought, running my fingers through my already messy hair.I stared at the cold food at the table. I wasn't able to eat more than two spoons. I mean, how was I supposed to eat peacefully knowing too well that the life of someone that I care so much about is in danger?How do I bring myself to enjoy the food? To pretend as though nothing was okay? The food tasted blunt even though it was one of my favourites.Perhaps it is all my fa

    LUCASA FEW MINUTES LATERMy car pulled up under the basement of a skyline building that was made of glasses about five minutes ago. However, I remained seated in the car, contemplating whether I was ready to confront what Ryan had for me in store or not.What if my doubts are proven right? I couldn't help but give it a thought. To be honest, I felt a little bit nervous. Heaving a deep sigh, I alighted the car and headed straight to the tall building. I have to admit that the building looked magnificent. I remember how Ryan started his journey to building a tech company in a small office downtown a couple of years ago. My lips curved into a smile when I gave it a thought. As a friend, I’m so happy for him because I have watched him grow…I went through a digital security check before they allowed me to enter the building. The security check was a little bit slow but I tried my best to be patient. I didn't expect

    LUCAS "He would never find out about it.” I was about to knock on the wooden mahogany door when I heard Monalisa's words. It seemed as though she was talking to someone over the phone. Taking a deep sigh, I knocked on the door, My lips curving into a smile and pretended as if I didn't hear anything that she said earlier. I twisted the metallic doorknob then walked into the office. Monalisa seemed to be so surprised by my presence as though she wasn't expecting me, hanging up the phone almost immediately. “For how long have you been…around?” She asked hesitantly, as though she was doubtful that I had eavesdropped her conversation. I could see the worry in her eyes as she played around with the cellphone in her hands nervously but pretended as though she was okay. “Just now, did you want me to arrive a little bit earlier?” I said teasingly, the corner of my lips curving into a smile. Monalisa relaxed when she heard my words, “No, I mean yes. I missed you so much, you know.” She plac

    KATERINA “Are-are you sure that is what the message says?” I asked the cryptographer just to make sure that I didn't hear him wrong.I wanted to make sure that the message wasn't interpreted wrongly. Why Nanny Anna? And who sent the message? How does the sender know her? Many questions buzzed in my head but there was no one to answer even a single one of them. The image of the old lady flashed in my head. Her affectionate smile. Her gentle touch on my cheeks whenever she wiped tears from my eyes. Her warm hug whenever she realised that I was feeling lonely and sad. Those sweet bedtime stories that she used to tell me every single night before I drifted into a deep slumber. Her delicious food…I felt tears burning in my eyes when all those memories came rushing back in my head. She was so sweet towards me, treating me with love and care. She never raised a voice at me or even a finger. Whenever I did something wrong, she would

    KATERINA TWO DAYS LATER Sitting on the highly backed chair behind the vintage table, I stared at the phone screen keenly, trying to decipher what the coded message meant. This was the first time that I had come across such a message and I couldn't make out what it meant.One week's break was over and now I was back to work like I never left. I had a lot of paperwork to work on but here I was, staring at the message. A frustrated sigh escaped from my lips. This has been going on for the past three days.Since we're entangled in a serious case, every single letter, every single comma or a full stop needed to be examined. Everything that happens needs to be studied carefully. That's what my lawyer told me and I was holding onto his advice because I’m pretty sure that he knew what he was talking about.My phone's security is enhanced to make sure that no one breaks in easily. The mails and everything that is connect

    KATERINA “Arabella, Asher, Alex…where are you? Mommy is looking for you…” I sang as though it was some sort of song.“Shhh…” I could hear one of the triplets telling the others to keep quiet as they giggled. We were in the flower garden, playing hide and seek.“Bella, mommy is looking for you. Don't hide from mommy…” I said, pretending I didn't hear their gigglings as I continued to search for them.Turning around, I saw the three hidden behind a circle shaped flower, pressed against each other. My lips curled up into a smile, finding it cute.“There you are! You’ll never hide from mommy because I will always find you.” I joked and the three giggled, coming out from the hiding. I opened my arms wide for them and they both came rushing to me, each one of them fighting to be the first.“Mommy found you!” I hugged the triplets so tightly and they hugged me back. God, this felt so good…I raised my head to look at the balco

    KATERINA Despite the day being busy, I’m glad that at least something good came out of it. I didn't regret the exhaustion because the outcome was worth it. The sweet aroma wafted in the dining room, light talk and laugh filling the air. It has been a long time since I sat at a table like this and had a decent meal. I looked at the table and my lips curved into a smile. I raised the glass that was half filled with the amber liquid, “I would like to raise a glass to everyone present at this table.” I paused for a moment, darting my eyes to every single soul, a smile touching my lips. “Brenda, thank you for your support. Your testimony played a big role in the ruling. I know that…it wasn't easy staring at Stephanie while you were standing at the witness box. Her face reminded you of her cruelty.” Brenda smiled warmly when she heard my words, raising her glass in the air. Her blue eyes sparkled under the soft glow from the chandelier. She's a bombshell blondie. One of the beautif
