"Mom!"A sob escaped my mouth at the sight of my mother. Six months, it has been six months, since I last saw her. I squealed with happiness and threw my arms around my mother and hugged her tightly inhaling her scent, her love. We both were in tears when we pulled away."Mom!" I hiccupped, "I-I missed you!" I cried."Shh, sweetheart, I missed you too." she cried, wiping my tears, "I've been losing my mind these months by the thought of you not being there, of you being hurt."I leaned myself in her hands."I am fine." I hushed her, "don't cry, mother.""Oh," her eyes widened as she remembered something, "let's get you back come on!" and took my hand, dragging me hurriedly.I nodded and followed her to the car. She was happy; it could be seen through her eyes.My mind was full of happiness. I got to meet my mother after so many months, it was the first time I was away from her for such a long time and it was just become of... Danzel!I gasped in shock. My mom looked at me and I tried
Danzel I watched silently from my car as the lights shut off her room. I sighed and ran my hand through my hair. She is up there, sleeping in her room while I am here, standing down on the street, watching her sleep. After staying there for a couple of minutes, I started the engine and drove off. After reaching back I called Creed through the hallway,"Creed," I called out."What?" He came munching some energy bar in his mouth."Call Gabriel and ask him to send a few men to Angelina's house. I want them to keep a watch on her; she isn't too safe out there." I said and walked by.I heard Creed chuckle and stop in my tracks and looked at him."What?" I asked raising an eyebrow at him."It's been just a day that she ran away and here, you're already missing her." he shook his head, "Man! You're gone..." He laughed."Firstly, she didn't run. Her mother took her and second I am not missing her." I said glaring at him."Sure, you're not." He rolled his eyes."Stop rolling your eyes, Creed.
Angelina"Wake up!" I heard a high-pitched voice screaming beside my bed. It was a very familiar one. I blinked and opened my eyes to find my best friend Lexi looking at me with tears in her eyes. I jolted up from my sleep when my brain fully understood who it was."Lexi!" I squealed with happiness and hugged her as she jumped at me and cried."I missed you!" she cried, tightening her grip on me, "I thought something happened to you, I—"I felt my tears also joining hers. This was my friend, my best friend. No wonder I missed her a lot. She was someone, I was sure, who would be there with me no matter what would happen to me, or what I would do. She always supported me when I would try to do something new, and would clearly oppose me when something wrong was going to happen. That is what I liked about our friendship; it was something too special for me."I missed you too!" I cried in her arms.After we cried, she suggested me to take shower and meet her downstairs for breakfast. I was
AngelinaMy heart was beating fast, thumping against my chest. The knocking on the door died, and I knew he left. He's gone. I am going to die, die soon. The man in front of me smirked at the guy holding me. I have to do something. I can't let my life end so soon, so easily, without trying to fight for it. So I did what first came to my mind, I bit his palm, hard. The man yelled in pain and cursed loudly. His palm freed my mouth, and with all the left energy in my body, I screamed hoping that someone would hear, maybe Danzel would hear."Help, someone he—", my voice was cut off as the other guy slapped me, and I stumbled down on the ground."B*tch!" He grunted.The other guy was ready to jump on me, but then, suddenly, the door flew open as someone broke open it. My heart gave a little hope. Someone has really come to help me. I waited for the man to enter the scene. My eyes were dizzy from the bleeding but I tried to keep them open, maybe to thank whoever interrupted my death, but wh
AngelinaI woke up, creasing my eyes to block the sunlight from falling. The next side of the bed was neatly made. I touched it to find it pretty cold. He must have left early. I sat up on my bed and got ready. When I opened my closet, it was in the same condition as I had left it. I got dressed and was plating my hair just then I heard a knock on the door.It was Susan. I swallowed nervously when I remembered how much I missed her. I ran across the room and pulled her into a tight hug. Susan didn't embrace me. I knew she was sad, probably angry about how I had left her that day."I am sorry..." I whispered and tightened my grip, hoping she would embrace me.Her hands slowly moved upwards and she returned my hug. She patted my back slowly as I broke the hug. I looked at her. She was staring at me, waiting for me to answer, to explain why I had done it."I am sorry. I was..." I looked at my fingers not knowing what to explain.She sighed loudly, which made me more nervous."Angelina lo
AngelinaIt has been three weeks since I last saw my mother. Danzel had told me that they had left back for L.A. It was good for them. I remember crying myself to sleep when I heard the news. It was painful for me to digest the fact that my family thinks that I am dead and I had no say in it. I couldn't tell them the truth. I had to let them go. After that day, everyone in the mansion was quite friendly to me. Creed used to be out for some work with Danzel but whenever he used to get time, we used to enjoy it. Danzel was also quite relaxed now. Maybe the fact that I was not going to try to run this time made him relaxed.My sleep was something that disturbed me. After knowing that he was somewhere out, I was scared.Scared that he might find me, hurt me.Like he had in the past,Like always.It happened every night that I would snap open my red eyes full of tears, my heart racing, and a concerned look on Danzel's face as he would always barge in, hearing me screaming. After that he ma
Angelina"Come on. We have to head back." Danzel said softly.I wiped my tears and nodded. He kept his hand on my back as we walked out. Danzel closed the doors as we left and I even saw his hands gripping the doorknob tightly before leaving it. We took a long turn. This wasn't the way I reached the floor."Danzel, where are we going? This isn't the right way." I said looking up at him."I know. I have to show you something."We soon reached the backyard of the mansion. It was beautiful. He led me to a certain tree and stood in front of it. The tree wasn't as huge and tall as the others. It was maybe a few years old. Not much longer.I looked up at Danzel. He was staring at the tree with hurt.As if sensing my gaze, he looked at me and smiled, forcefully."My mother and Isabella are buried beneath this tree." He said in low voice.I looked at the tree, my tears welling again.I didn't know why but his past made me cry for him. I wanted to hug him tightly...and so I did.I pulled his a
Angelina"I am glad you came back to your senses and gave us a day's leave," Gabriel said across the room.We were having our breakfast. As I had insisted on going swimming he had informed everyone that they could take a day rest while he would accompany me. I was really very excited about it though. It was after many days that I was going somewhere. Ever since that blast in the club, he didn't let me out and with some psycho searching me, I won't be safe. Susan had insisted on joining us but afterward, I don't know why she canceled."I would suggest you rather enjoy your day than working your ass in the office," Danzel said sternly."Why?""Because I won't allow you to take one day off if you continue talking about my senses.""Geez, sorry brother!" He laughed, "I am very much excited to spend my day rather...well." Gabriel wiggled his eyebrows at Danzel and soon all the men giggled at his comment.Danzel smirked and nodded in amusement at him."Well? Everyone knows your definitions
