"Is that true?" Master Dan asked Damian and he nodded slowly. "I'm sorry grandpa," Damian mumbled. "Sorry? How could you be so irrational? Why didn't you think things through? Maya is your wife and you know she'd never do something like that, goddamnit Damian," Master Dan sighed, looking at Damian with disappointment."I want you to fix this and make sure my daughter in law comes home. I don't care how you do it but make sure you fix this," Master Dan said angrily. This is the first time Damian had seen his grandfather angry in years. The jovial, smiling Master Dan was gone and had been replaced by an angry one. The place turned silent as they waited for the doctor to tell them something. They all grew anxious as the clock ticked. They didn't know what was going on there but they all hoped it was something positive. The sun was setting, casting a warm glow over the city and yet there was still no news. Damian's heart was growing heavier by the second and he kept pacing around the hallw
Oliver broke down after Master Dan's lecture. He cried and begged Master Dan to forgive him. He showed extreme remorse for his actions. He turned to Damian and begged to help him make things right, but Damian just looked away, he wasn't going to buy that act. He knew Oliver was just doing that so he wouldn't end up in jail. "What makes you think I'll believe this act of yours?" Damian asked coldly. "I know you won't believe but I'll turn over a new leaf. I'll be that brother you always wanted.""I never wanted a brother," Damian cut him off sharply. "I won't try to bail myself out of here. I deserve it and I'll stay in here and pay for my crimes but there's something I need from you," he said, his eyes fixed on Damian. "What?" Damian asked, taken aback. "I want to hand over all my properties to you. I want you take everything and I know you're going to take good care of them. I'm sorry I choose money over family and I want to make sure I change completely."He paused and looked a
Ron looked at the man in front of him, who had buried his head back in a stack of documents and a sigh escaped his lips. He had become a shadow of his old self since his wife died three years ago. He had now become distant and cold, just like he was before he got married. The day his wife died, it was like a dark cloud had descended over the entire family. He was lost in his own grief, unable to find solace and move forward. The office became tense and morale plummeted. Damian would snap at anyone who annoyed him. Everything had gone back to the way they were before Maya came into their lives. Damian, who wasn't able to stay in the house located in the city moved back to the isolated house his grandfather had built. The house wasn't far away from the bustling city and was surrounded by thick tree and bushes. The child they adopted was sent out to a boarding school in the United Kingdom, where Master Dan lived. The bond between the grandfather and grandson died gradually and it was
It was a recent photo of a woman who had a striking resemblance to his dead wife. She was smiling radiantly and she looked well and alive. Damian blinked several times to make sure he wasn't dreaming or hallucinating. Because he saw his wife, he was there when she was buried and he never left the corpse's side. He saw her lying lifeless in the casket. So who was this woman?Maybe it's because he just had an emotional breakdown or so he thought but reality kept hitting him in the face. Confusion and disbelief flooded Damian's mind. How could this be? Was this a cruel prank or a case of mistaken identity? He couldn't shake off the feeling that it was indeed Maya in the photo.If she wasn't dead then whose funeral did they have? How did she leave the hospital? We're the doctors aware of it? Did they have a hand in this? Why didn't she reach out to any of them these three years? Was she really happy with the life she was living? Had she forgotten about all of them? Questions after quest
Renne took in a deep breath a rubbed her forehead. She looked at the two men in her office. "Like I said earlier, I'm not Maya. I don't even know who she is and I'm confused here. I thought we were going to have a meeting__ you know a business meeting," she said, looking tired all of a sudden. She wasn't really in the mood for all this. "I know you're angry with me. I know you hate me because of all the things I have put you through but you can't pretend you don't know me. Don't you think it's too harsh?" Damian asked, tears pooling up in his eyes as he knelt before the woman he loved. She was now looking at him as if he was stranger, as if they had never met. "I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about," she said gently."Of course you do," Damian said raising his voice a little and holding shoulders as the same time. "I'm your husband and you're my wife.What I don't know is why you're pretending but do you know what I've been through for the past three years," Damian aske
"Mommy! Mommy!Mommy!," a tiny voice squealed as Renee walked in the noisy assembly room. She smiled brightly as she saw the owner of the voice running towards her, his whole face lit up with joy and his little feet couldn't move fast enough to reach her. He run towards her, his tiny arms outstretched. Renee couldn't help but chuckle as she lifted the little bundle of joy into her arms. He wrapped his tiny arms around her neck, in the biggest, tightest hug he could manage."You came!" She said excitedly. "Of course I did, I would never miss this for anything," she said, tickling his tummy a bit. She started walking to where the other students and parents were, when a familiar figure blocked her path. "Akle (Uncle) Ace," Dennis grinned, opened his arms wide for the man in front of him to take him."Hey little guy," Ace grinned, running his fingers through Dennis's hair: "Are you excited to perform?" He asked and the little boy nodded enthusiastically. "Ok…so how about this? You go
Maya’s head would snap towards the entrance whenever she heard the door open. Who she was looking for? She had no answer to that. The sound of the bell was just catching her attention.Closing her eyes as the bitter liquor run down her throat, she thought about what she would do after this place. She owed her parents an explanation and she wasn’t going to run away from it.She wasn’t a drinker but she needed this drink to get her mind of that traitor. How could he do this to her? What wrong did she do to deserve this? How has he been keeping this from her for a long time now? She sobbed silently as the images from a hour ago played in her head over and over again. She was taking alcohol to get her mind off it but it wasn’t working. Maybe she just needed more. With that thought in mind, she waved the bar tender over and ordered more bottles.He told her he loved her. He told her he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. He promised to make her happy. He promised to always be the
A male silhouette could be seen in the dim lit room. All those standing around him had their head bowed and dared not to look in his eyes.One look from him and pee would be running down your pants."Is she not here?" He asked and the man right in front of him shook his head."You know I hate lateness," he said and the man nodded."I explained everything to her but I don’t know the reason behind her lateness boss,"was the man’s reply."So do something about it," the man who was being addressed as boss said coldly.Just then the door flew open and a woman who looked heavily drunk walked in."Sorry boss we tried to stop her but she...." the guy who run in after her started speaking but he was cut off by the boss."But what? What’s your work out there? You couldn’t even handle a woman, a drunk one to be precise so what shows you can handle someone who means harm?""Oh this is not a washroom?" The woman said running her hands through her messy hair. "I need to use a washroom so bad," she
