Erica stepped out of her room carrying herself with so much dignity, it was already 4:00pm.She drove out of the house heading out to spend the rest of the day with her man.Andrew lay face up on his bed, lost in between thoughts when he heard unusual movements.He jerked up from his bed at once and walked into the living room.He gasped "who are you and what are you doing in my house?"The lady smiled."How time flies that a father doesn't even recognize his daughter" she said looking straight at his face.His eyes fluttered in amazement.She was the last person he expected to see in his house.He ran his hand across his mouth taking a quick glance around wondering if Miriam came with her.Joan smirked."Don't worry I am alone, she did not come with me" she said.Andrew scoffed fixing his gaze on her face."What are you doing here Joan?" He asked.She laughed softly."No dad..., t
Erica cat walked her way to the elevator smiling at anyone who said hello especially the security guard who always reminds her that she looked beautiful.He walked up to her.Erica turned to him with one of her hands firmly placed on her hips.She had this warm smile which exposed her white set of teeth."Hello ma'am..." he greeted."Hey... it has been a while" Erica answered.He nodded "so good to see you today, you look beautiful."Erica's eyes fluttered, she knew he was going to say that."Thank you... I will see you around later" Erica said leaving in a hurry.She have been feeling pretty nervous lately whenever she is sees the security and this makes her feel so uneasy and uncomfortable though she couldn't explain the feeling.Erica dried off the thoughts of the security guard off her mind taking a deep breath.Her hair was flying left and right as she walked.She could feel it's dangling
The look in his eyes got deem.He looked very scared and uncomfortable about the knock.Erica was thrown into deeper confusion, she could see his hands shaking."Are you okay Liam?" She asked staring at him.Erica was getting tired of the whole situation, her silence was beginning to choke.Something was definitely going on with her man yet he wanted her to keep mute about it.He pointed at her "I am okay Erica, just stay right here while I check who is at the door."The knock came again..."Did you hear me?" He asked in a hasty voice scaring the living daylight out of her.She nodded abruptly looking very disturbed as she watched him leave.Erica quietly sat on the bed looking very confused, she couldn't press a finger on whatever is going on but whatever it was, shw needed to find out and help her man ou
Erica walked out through the door and Liam's life forever."Get your stupid self out of here and don't ever come back here crazy woman, boyfriends snatched!" The lady screamed.Liam shut the door behind Erica.More tears crawled out of her eyes.She could feel her heart splitting into two as she stood motionless at the hallway.Her heart was heavy and bleeding with sadness and regret.Erica found it very difficult to comprehend all that had just happened to her just in one day.She turned around, her legs were shaking.Erica couldn't believe nor digest the fact that Liam who she believed was real with her have been playing her all these while and she never knew it."I trusted him too much and believed everything he said, I really need to wakeup from this nightmare" she mumbled tapping her cheeks which have turned puce.She walked over to the elevator and got in.Erica squat to the ground and bur
The clouds have gotten dark and Erica could feel cold chills on her arms and shoulder.It was in the middle of a summer season but she wondered why she was feeling like it was winter."Did I actually sleep off in my car?" She thought.She was still lost in her little though when she was distracted by a slight sound.Her eyes fluttered, they felt so heavy and weak.The tap on her glass window came again.She looked up, the fair face of her friend Sarah was looking down at her.She unlocked the car at once and stepped down.Sarah stared at her face looking dumbfounded."Erica you are a complete mess" she said on noticing that she have been crying for long.Erica leaned on her shoulder and burst into uncontrollable tears."I feel stupid Sarah..." she cried out.Sarah rubbed her back slowly making her feel like a child."Don't say that girlfriend, you aren't stupid, what ha
Sarah got very more uncomfortable with the way Erica was drinking non stop and she wouldn't stop even though she wanted her to."Allow me drink my sorrows away Sarah, my heart is hurting badly" she said in tears.Sarah snatched the last glass of wine from her table."You have had enough Erica, I didn't bring you here to get drunk, I just wanted to make you happy" she said.Erica was already tipsy.She chuckled."And you succeeded Sarah, I am happy now" she said grinning."Erica???" A lady called out walking closer to their table.Erica's eyes widened on seeing her."Joan....???" She mumbled.Sarah took a glance at Joan."Who is she?" Sarah asked.Sarah is naturally always too protective of Erica, she was always conscious of anyone who comes around her just like a mother takes care of her child and is always watchful of her.Sometimes Erica teased Sarah by calling her mother."She is my sister Sarah" Erica answered
Andrew stood outside the building, his eyes were all over the place as he anticipated the return of his daughter.He took a deep breath when he saw Erica's car drive into the compound.He ran to the car at once.Erica was staggering here and there.He gasped holding her.He glared at Joan who only smirked.Andrew led his daughter into her room and shut the door behind her.He walked into the living room and met Joan sitting down."Why do you always act like you saw a ghost each time you see me?" Joan arched her brow.He scoffed "do I?""I am your daughter, I hope you know that?" She asked."Since your mother is so good at talking, she should have told you every other thing" he said.Joan stood up "it doesn't matter if I am not biologically yours buy I grew up knowing you as my father."Andrew looked around the house hoping that Erica wasn't hearing what they were saying."You are shouti
Joan led Erica back into the room and helped her sit on her bedErica looked up at Joan's face and scoffed."You brought me home?" Erica asked sounding a little tipsy and suprised.Joan nodded sitting beside her "I did..."Erica nodded "what about Sarah?"Joan shurgged "from the look of things, Sarah seemed to be very busy with somethings at the bar, so since I am your sister.... I was in a better position to get you out of there...."Erica nodded slightly with her mind engaged in deep thoughts "I see...."Joan cleared her throat."You really want to know the truth Erica? I really don't get it" Joan saidErica still felt very weak.She rubbed her hand on her forehead "what is it that you don't get?""Why would a beautiful lady like you get drunk in a bar?" Joan asked.Erica sighed "I really don't want to discuss this Joan."Joan reached out for Erica's hand, she held it rubbing her
