CHAPTER 5 AGAIN IT HAPPENED

JANE’s POV

I still feel he should know about his son, but Kimberly would never agree to it, her biggest fear that he would take their three year old son from her forever being the main reason and motivation.

“If not for your parents and you… When I left his house that day, I knew he would come after me… Janeeeeeee!...it was the same you that found a secret place and hid us till now! I have suffered enough pleaseeeee” she lashed out at me, throwing more sandwiches onto her plate in outrage.

I kept my mouth close as I didn't want her to smack me with her sandwich. We stayed silent after that, instead I allowed my thoughts to wander to how she had survived the past four years. It wasn't long after she left Craig that she found out she was carrying his baby.

My friend was happy and elated, she alerted me to keep it a secret and swore to have her child by herself, she sure did and not only that she completed her college education, found a job as a supermarket attendant and also took care of agatha’s education.

A true definition of “strong woman”, she didn't ask for help so I had to force her to take some from me. Agatha can work now and she does that to support her sister. She's also in her final year in college, everything looks peaceful and hopeful for them, I couldn't be more happier.

Yet their elder brother didn't for once try to reach out to them, the Criag whom she hates so much is still out there, searching seriously for her up till this moment, what type of brother is Keith? “He's just an animal”, my mind gave me the answer at once.

Now the only problem I have is Kimberly's new boyfriend, they met two years ago and I'm disturbed that he wasn't concerned at all that she's still married to Craig or the fact that her husband is still searching for her or about her son, Jason whom she hid from Craig.

Kimberly told Nicholas; her new boyfriend the truth from the onset and yet he is still proposing marriage, I don't like the guy at all. He's always obsessing over my best friend and acting strange, but in time I had to adjust, all because my best friend cares strongly about my acceptance towards him, at least he provides her happiness like she always does tell me.

“It's okay.. Stop fuming and eat your food, I won't bring Criag up again, let me make you some cold milk…” I apologised, Playing with her chin like I used to whenever she's pissed at me, she had been frowning since I mentioned her husband, she finally smiled at me after more trials and agreed to me making the cold milk.

KIMBERLEY’s POV

I was running so fast that I didn’t realise I wasn’t wearing my flat shoes properly, the school owner had just informed me about the whereabouts of my son and I felt like I couldn't feel my body anymore, my breath caught up in my throat.

Immediately the cab dropped me in front of the same mansion I swore never to return to, I took to my heels and rushed at the gate, the security opened the gigantic gates for me, they were expecting me.

The car which would take me into the main mansion was also there waiting, of course Craig has our son, he knew I would come without any delay, the car took me into the estate and I barged into the main building.

My eyes fell on Cheryl first, seated cross leg in the main parlour then Craig, he was pacing frantically, stopped instantly when he saw me.

“Welcome back runaway bride.. Now will you do me the honours by explaining why you left without my approval?, took my pregnancy? and fucking had our baby alone without my knowledge?” He yelped at me, throwing the question at once.

I fidgeted and moved away from him. Right now he looked more like a roaring lion who’s about to catch its prey. Moving toward me with a guided step, I knew he was waiting for the right time to grab me.

“My son… where is he? You took him from the school, how did you find out about him? Where’s Jason!” I cried out, adding some sympathy in my voice. He scoffed and replied at once. “He’s fine and with his Nanny, well taken care of, he called me daddy after I introduced myself… you kept my son away woman! You shouldn’t have done that! Where have you been these past years… I searched for you everywhere!”

I looked at Cheryl and then back at my so called husband, the shock was evident on my face. He confesses to having been searching for us, when the same woman who chased us out is sitted and listening the whole time.

“What do you want from us?… you have your fiancé here, please let us go, I’m getting married to Nicholas.. you don’t know him, he’s my boyfriend…

I stopped mid sentence when I felt his hand on my soft neck, he held me tightly and pushed me to the wall, his eyes sternly on my face, he moved his mouth closer to mine like he wanted to kiss me, “you dare not! You are married to me… married legally Kim! I warned you, didn't I….

“I know your little boyfriend, have been following you for a month now … you are staying here with my son! I won’t divorce you and you will suffer for what you did!” He barked at me, his eyes firing hot shots at me, he released me at once and walked out of the house.

I gasped for breath, flapping my hand for composure, still I fell into the chair, Cheryl sat still and kept pouting at me. I know Craig all too well, I wouldn’t be able to leave the mansion until he says so. For my sons’ sake, I will have to stay here and fight for my freedom again.

Reaching for my phone I dialed my sisters’ number, asking her to bring our things and join me in the mansion. She was surprised and shared that we’ve been found out. 

“It has happened again… he got me in his clutches agatha.. He found out about Jason and took him from school…there’s nothing I can do… just pack and come quick” I informed her, all the whole time Cheryl was glaring at me without saying a word. Of course she would still come for me, this time I will scratch her badly because I have two things to protect now, my son and my little sister.
