Jade walked in carrying a duffle bag on her hand. She dropped it off and let out a tired sigh. She looked up and
"Oh my God, you guys scared me. What are you doing?"
"Oh hi Jade. We were just talking about getting Arianne getting a job now that River isn't around to sponsor everything anymore."
"Oh!"
"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be with Jeremy and my godchildren?" I teased.

32Remy and Riley had been my favorite people since their birth. I literally couldn't spend a whole day without seeing them, I'd gotten so used to them."Make sure to not overfeed them like last time, one bottle only." Jade warned as she packed her stuff in her backpack."What do you mean like last time?" She rolled her eyes and turned to me."You know very well what I mean. Last time I left them with you, you overfed them and they had indigestion and couldn't sleep. It was me running around and not you, so be careful this time around and don't give each of th

33The door opened and in walked Jade looking tired and carrying a couple of grocery bags on her shoulder. Grey immediately ran to help her as I set down Riley who I just fed in her fancy baby seat. Thankfully, she was really into her food so the feeding wasn't messy at all, unlike the last time.The awful last time, I actually didn't know how to properly feed children and Jade wasn't in so I just went with my instinct. I mixed a lot of baby milk in warm water, turned it in the baby bottle and fed them. They didn't seem to like it though as they were always pushing the bottle out of their mouths by themselves forcefully, causing a big mess of milk on their faces and outfits. It was more my fault than theirs though so I didn't blame them.I already did my research and read up on how to properly feed babies; I'm now a professional babysitter and godmother. Show me anybody else who can do it

I had gone as far as two lines ahead of my introductory paragraph and I couldn't feel any less proud of myself. I know, it wasn't much progress but I was still happy I'd gotten that far because it was hard as hell; coupled with the hurricane in my head. Honestly, I had a lot on my mind and I couldn't help it.There was Arianne's case which we still didn't know the final verdict, all we knew was that she was free on trial to be back for the final verdict. Then there were the twins, Jade was still weak from childbirth and had to catch up on her education so I had to help with taking care of them. I also had to think up what to write in my stupid article.See? I couldn't help but celebrate my progress, they say celebrate your little wins, right? The twins were also part of my inspiration; their occasional smiles and bright big eyes motivated me to write the next line.Suddenly, I felt eyes on me. It was really creepy and weird because

35All I could see, hear and feel was darkness. My whole body felt numb as fuck and I couldn't move a darn limb. I felt insensible. I tried to fight the numbness and move my body but a sharp pain coming from a random unidentifiable part of my body held me down.Pain; unbearable, unbeatable, inexplicable, unexplainable pain. I tried to scream but I couldn't feel my throat; I tried to scream but my head was under water😉😏. I tried a second time but I still couldn't access or feel my throat so I just laid pretty in my beautiful beautiful darkness.This felt like sleep paralysis except for the difference; I couldn't hear or feel anything around me. I was totally unaware of what was happening outside my body and I wasn't terrified of anything so I couldn't exactly class this state as sleep paralysis. Or was this a new stage nobody else had discovered?Hold on, was I dead? I couldn't even tell. Even if

Random POVThe night was pretty bright when she moved into her new apartment on 3rd avenue. She dragged her boxes into the rooms based on their description. The rodents had taken over nearly half her properties back in Sun street.She tried to ignore them but they kept eating more of her stuff up so she had to move. She had tried extermination and patching up even the tiniest holes in the apartment but they kept coming in. The landlady didn't even attend to her pleas or anything.She was angry at the world for everything that's been going on in her life. First, rodents take over her living space, the firm she works for transferred ownership to someone else and they might let go of some staff (which may or may not include her) or even end the business and she just used half her savings to get a new place in the middle of the month.She felt like raising a middle finger in the middle of the street just to spite whoeve

38I was still uncomfortably in the painful abyss but the pain seemed to be decreasing slowly.Meanwhile, Belle had no idea why she was reacting that way to a simple business meeting invitation with the new owner of the business, Andrew Williams; just to refresh your memory because I almost always never remember that guy exists.Andrew: You know that guy is right here, right?Haha. Funny.She carried on with what she was typing until she felt and saw a shadow looming over her and whoever it was, they smelt delic

39"Yes Rita, I already had something to eat and I'm full." Belle told her and watched as she smiled a lovely smile through the video call. She smiled back at her and continued her office tale. "That's all that happened and it's all pretty weird and cliché especially the date part." She ended with a chuckle."And you feel this is the part where you and your boss start to get to know each other before you hit it off, right?" Rita laughed making Skylar laugh and appear behind Belle"That's the same thing I said, Rita." She piped in. Belle groaned pushing her off as she was putting her entire body weight on her.
