I led mom to her room, tucking her gently into the bed.

“You only need to call me, and ill be here.” I said.

“Faster than your dads omelette?” She teased, in her brittle attempt to make lighter of the situation.

I kissed her cheeks saying. “Faster than dads omelette.”

She closed her weary eyes and soon fell asleep. taking in deep breaths, i pulled myself from her, then shut the door behind me quietly.

If there was anybody i knew i needed to speak with right now, it was Drew.

He was the only person who saw the inevitable coming, but how?

I increased my pace as i hopped down the stairs.

Before regaining my property, finding dad has now become my top priority. I thought articulately.

But for starters, i had no idea where to search first.

I couldn't picture a standard reason why Derrick was doing all this but i knew i couldn't trust him with dads safety either.

And especially when ‘compliance’ only meant he had something more to demand from me.

My soul i guess.

"I'll join you in a minute." I said, tucking my falling hair behind my ears. ‎ ‎"okay then." she said politely shutting the door. ‎ ‎Immediately, I reached for my phone.

    oh," I swallowed. My eyes thinning out in surprise.‎‎"it belongs to you" he brought it closer to me. Handing it over.‎‎"yeah right. It does," I stated sourly.‎‎"are you upset over something,?" Ryan asked. ‎‎I had one hand on my chin, the other on my waist. but then they both fell down to my sides. ‎‎" So you are going to pretend like you have not gone through the content." I said, taking the envelope from his hand.‎‎"I haven't, " he said.‎‎"I could have, but I had a feeling you wouldn't want me on it, so, I let it slide."‎‎" and you expect me to believe that?" I lifted an eyebrow saying as I sat.‎‎"I was hoping you would." he answered.‎‎"tch," I kissed my teeth. ‎‎"says someone who lies about everything, you know what, forget that.

    but how?" I questioned.‎‎My stomach unbelievably continued to knot ties with each page I swept through.‎‎My heart drummed against my chest so loud I thought Ryan might hear it from downstairs.‎‎I tucked a falling hair strand behind my ear as I subconsciously sat on the edge of the bathtub, ‎‎I could care less about the cold porcelain biting into my skin.‎‎The words on the page blurred, not because of bad lighting—no—but because of the mental fatigue I felt. ‎‎I tried to stabilize myself, taking in deep breaths, running my hands through my hair, and taking a pause but,I could barely even hold the papers still.‎‎Mrs. Rebecca...?" I heard Anna call out my name from the other side of the door.‎‎And out of reflex, I sprang to my feet, shoving the papers behind me like they were contraband.‎‎"Um, just a moment," I lifted my voice in pretence, despite how dry my throat was.‎‎"I prepared some clothes you might want to change into—they’re on the bed,"

    “Ryan Hathaway?” I repeated. Staring at him dead in the face as the doctor excused us. “Yes, thats my name.” Ryan answered. Looking everywhere but my face. “How is that even possible, i mean, i have never heard anything about you before.”“Derrick is not my brother okay, we are just cousins.” He rubbed his eyes saying.“Yet he treats you simply as an assistant, nothing family related.”“Thats not the way it is..,”He defended. “Well that was exactly what i witnessed.” “Look okay, Derrick may not be the best person alive but, he needed my help.”I rolled my eyes on hearing him say that, increasing my pace.“Well good for you.” I said.“Derrick is not completely the devil you think Mrs Rebecca,”“Then you have no idea whom Derrick is.” I sliced in bitterly. “I shouldn't be telling you this but, he is in a lot of trouble.,way bigger than you can imagine.” Ryan added“And so passionately, i pray he meets his doom in the process,” i sneered.“I mean, look at me. Im in this condition al

    “You haven't looked through what?” He asked. Turning his full attention to me now. I opened my mouth to speak, but then the words couldn't find their way out. I stared at his forehead, in-between his eyebrows blankly. Did i trust him completely? I found myself asking. He might have helped me get out of a situation but still, it could just be one of his mind twisting tricks. “Wait, hold up a minute Ryan,” i Paused my thoughts as i asked inquisitively.“Why did you come with me?”He looked me dead in the face unbelievably.“Are you always like this mrs Rebecca?”Ryan rubbed his palms through his face.“How did you know my husband, and becoming acquainted with him?, in such short time span.”“Your husband?” He lifted an eyebrow as a chuckle escaped his lips.“Um..um Derrick, i meant.” I stuttered. “It was an obvious mistake incase you did not realize.” I defended.“But that doesn't stop you from answering the question still.”“Mrs Rebecca,” he kissed his teeth. “How do i say this in

    “Its negative.” Ryan spoke finally. With a somewhat even more confused expression on his face. He extended his hand with the test strip in it, handing it over to Fiona. The room hung in the silence as everyones minds took a second or two to process the information. I shook my head slightly in horror as the blood drained out of my face. more confused than them all combined.“Naah, you can keep it.” Fiona scrunched up her nose as Ryan literally poked the test stick into her face. “Negative?” I repeated. I felt my heart squeeze as the word came out of my mouth almost as a whisper.My eyes earnestly clung unto Ryan. This has to be one of his mind twisting games because???“Come to think of it,” she wrapped one of her arm under the other, pointing her finger under her chin, saying. “Meaning she actually tricked you Ryan, she wasn't pregnant anymore ,” she stated. “She only used that plot to get a free ride.” She grinned maliciously as she clapped her hands together.Derricks arms wr
