~Stephen~

In the last two days, my once bubbly home has gone dry. Allison and Avery were still in shock. The drama that happened days back was still fresh in their minds. Most times Allison wakes up in the middle of the night and starts screaming in fear.

I stared at the glass of water for a second before going up to Avery’s room. She hadn’t stepped out for two days. Currently, Stella was the one managing the company matters.

Surprisingly, she was giving me the silent treatment. I had no idea of what happened or why she was acting up either. Stella was the least of my problems, I was more concerned about her older sister.

“Thank you. Just keep me posted”

I overheard her talking on the phone, I was overwhelmed to hear her voice after a while. Walking in, I placed the glass of water on the table. She instantly kept her phone away and walked to the bed where she took a seat.

Every memory gets sucked into the dark abyss with you and you cease to exist.Some believe that there’s an afterlife after death and others believe that you’ll end up in heaven or in hell according to how well or how bad you’ve lived your life..I had no idea of where I might end up being. But I hoped it was a place that’ll give me peace of mind.How it all started…After I received the text message from the unknown number, I froze up. I could almost feel my beloved’s distress in the text. She was currently in San Francisco about to get married to Ethan. The same man who blackmailed me to marry his sister or I lose my family. I couldn’t afford to lose my family so I succumbed to his wishes. I now understood what he was playing at.Avery’s life was never in danger, he just wants her for himself and I couldn’t let t

    ~Avery~For a wanted man like Ethan, I didn’t expect him to do something lavish at all. It wasn’t exactly lavish and neither was it simple. I walked hand in hand with Ray who was walking me down the aisle. I’ve never hated myself more to know that this fool took the place my dad hasn’t taken before.When I got married to Scott years back, my parents couldn’t come since the Brandon’s thought that I was an orphan.I did a quick head count with my eyes, the people present in the church were none other than his men and maybe a group of their mafia friends. There were roughly twenty to twenty five guests present in the church.“It will be worth it when you spot a familiar face sitting with the guests” I heard Ray whisper but I couldn’t figure out what exactly he meant by that. Once we reached Ethan who was all smiles, Ray handed me to him and returned back to his seat.The archbishop himself felt uncomfortable being here. I could spot the fear in his eyes too. “Dear beloved, we are gather

According to my brothers, they relayed that Avery and her daughter won’t be troubling me forever.I took that as a cue that the task was done. Avery and her daughter were finally dead. The joy I felt at the news was greater than everything that I had ever rejoiced about.I stood before the full mirror admiring my undeniable beauty, my wedding gown was nothing extra, just simple.

    ~Avery~Before the mirror, I sat staring dazedly at my reflection. The world around me was colorless. Whatever actions that were being performed around me were completely faded and blurred. The white dress that I was thrown in reminded me of how dark my life was at the moment.Today was the day Ethan chose to destroy and ruin my life by getting married to me. My insides felt empty, not having to see my daughter for days and also the people I care about.I regained my consciousness immediately when I heard a phone ring.
