CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR
It had been a long awful day and all Esther craved was a benign night's sleep. Her body felt exhausted and numb. As soon as she entered her room, She slid on her short old nightie and hauled in her blanket. Unlike before she barely said her prayers. Despite all the ardent desire, she had to lay her head down she could hardly get sleep.
A reflection of all that had happened that day occupied her mind and it was hard to shut them off. She kept rolling inside the blanket from one end of the bed to the other and each time she did it seemed to remind her of the gravity of the consequences of her mistake.
"What will you do now Esther? Your foolish actions have cost pain and misery to everyone. Aunt Jina must be incredibly angry to have declined to eat her dinner and it's all because of you. Uncle Richard has been sad and lonely since the incident." She th

In the middle of the night, when happy dreamers embrace their fantasies, Esther sat curled on her bed bare eyed soaking in her agony. She had been like this for hours staring in space, her mind sprawling in a stream of thoughts. Suddenly her eyes became heavy and her head was weighty.She lay on her side and closed her eyes. She had started to feel drowsy when she had an instinct that she heard the sound of footsteps; as if someone walked past her window. She was seized with a tinge of fear. Quietly she turned to a sitting posture and peered through the window. There was nothing. The white curtains were well-drawn and a shaft of light from the security bulb let in some dim light."I think I must have been dreaming." She thought and climbed down her bed to check whether she had perfectly locked the door to her room. As she lingered around in fright she led

WARNING!!! This chapter might contain explicit scenes. Please read it at your peril.Slowly but with vigilance, Esther paced forward bestowing glances around. The voices died down as she went further. Richard became soft in the presence of a woman. Julie had it all. She had the art to lure and love without frailty in the game, but she was treacherous, selfish and greedy. She lay on top of him and soaked him with kisses.In the middle of his pleasure, he remembers Jina and becomes stiff. Julie laboured to coax him into motion by attempting every nasty move but he was raw. Romancing a man had always been a cakewalk for her, but this time it seemed her efforts were drained."What's wrong with him? I have tried every technique but why does he seem indifferent? Am I missing something? His attitude is disquieting. I must have been deluding my

Jina woke up early the next morning relaxed and cheerful. She's full of energy and enthusiasm. She wears her comfortable slippers and trots to the window to draw the curtains. It was dawn. She peers into space in thought and then said,"Jina, you acted foolish last night. What were you thinking? You shouldn't have pushed Richard away. There are many ways to kill a rat. You must act wisely this time; Show affection to Esther, because it pleases everyone. She smirked and walked across the room as if looking for something and then suddenly went to the table near the closet. She reached for her phone and flicked on it with her finger and dialled someone's number."Hello, Tony, Jina speaking.""Yes, ma." the person on the receiver responded."It's very early
FOREVER MINE CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT
The reconciliation between Esther and Jina mesmerised Mellisa. There was confusion in the recesses of her mind. It seemed strange to her. "What has made mom change so suddenly? This is inconceivable!" She reckoned in her mind. It stands to reason that if she was really genuine, then she needed an appraisal.After a relatively long group embrace, Jina released her grip and said,"Alright, that's enough, girls. Help me set the table. I am ravenous." She was enthusiastic. She turned and strutted to serve her palatable meal. Esther smiled. She felt more relaxed than ever. Mellisa had qualms in her mind. Noticing how much Jina's repentance had thrilled Esther, she was a little bit scared. She would have told her not to read much into what her mother had said but decided to stay quiet and watch the space. Mellisa had a ready wit.

They were both full of sentiments but Jina managed to soothe him." I forgive you, honey. If anything, I should be the one begging for forgiveness. I caused everything, yes I did." She said to pacify him and then wiped his tears with her hand. Richard raised his face and looked at his wife. He held her face between his hands and kissed her and then leaned over her shoulder. In a moment he caught sight of a gold shining necklace which lay on the floor close to the window. It appeared to be Julie's. She might have dropped it while they were caressing last night. Richard's heart thumped with violence and almost ripped out of his chest."Richard, you are doomed. This is the end of the road for you. That necklace is an exhibit of your crime. It will expose the bare bones of your secret." He told himself and his chest heaved. He was in an abyss of despair. Jina
FOREVER MINE CHAPTER THIRTY
Jina's equitable behaviour towards Esther mesmerized everyone. She was no longer haughty towards her. At dinner, she pledged that henceforth she would sit beside her and be the one to serve her food. Richard furrowed his eyebrows questioningly. "How weird! Is she genuine or is there something hidden in her character?" He wondered, his eyes grumbling for the truth. It was incredibly beyond his belief and understanding that she would change profoundly in an instance. She seemed true and sincere. Richard gazed at his wife with awe. This is what he yearned for; to treat everyone without prejudice and with deserving respect. He cherished her more. Now, her character befitted her beauty and there was nothing as thrilling to him as that. Jina, after adding pieces of meat on Esther's plate, stole a fleeting glimpse at Richard. He was still staring at her astonished. She blushed and lowered her face. He was overwhelmed and couldn't hold back his feelings of gr
FOREVER MINE CHAPTER THIRTY ONE
In this charade, where everyone sees Jina as a saint due to her presumed transformation, Esther will have to count the costs of Jina's disparaging character which she will have to disguise by crawling under the shell of innocence. Henceforth she must try to be wary and keep her game clean for her to be able to achieve the desired results.As she sat on the stool near the dishwasher, she conceitedly feels she had done a great deal of work so far which is purposed to Esther's detriment. She is anxious to call Tony, her goon whom she deems set fair to do a perfect job and whose collaboration is vital in this undertaking. Together they must eat from each other's hands to reap good results. I can't call. Someone might hear us. She mutters and instead sends him a text message and then places it again on the table. The expression on her face undoubtedly spelt every inch of d
FOREVER MINE CHAPTER THIRTY- TWO
Jina and Richard came down the stairs a moment later. One can easily tell that they are a happy couple by the way they eye each other and treat each other with much affection. Richard looked around the living room. There was hardly anyone visible. "Where are these girls?" He wondered. Jina, noticing that he was suddenly quiet stood in front of him, her eyes seeking his attention. "Hey, what is it, dear?" She said tapping her on the shoulder and then squeezing his hand. He switches his gaze to the beauty in front of him gazing at it with charm giving every appearance of being attracted to her. After gazing at her, he flashes an appreciative smile, his lean handsome face glowing, his curved pointed nose almost touching her face. He put his arm around her waist and drew her closer in an audacious manner beguiled by her beauty. Jina looked at him attentively, rolling her eyes. "I feel like kissing you, honey."
