Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 6: Stay
" That's enough,” he said, voice low, yet authoritative. He dismissed her, but she insisted on staying back, looking my way with glaring suspicion.“ You should head home. I will be with you once he wakes up," he told her.I felt some fresh wounds reopen. I was once his home. I was once the woman he said those words to. As if it hadn't smashed my heart hard against the wall, she tilted his head and pressed her lips against his.A sly remark. She's the one who owns him now.However snappy, it rubbed my thoughts for the rest of the day, imagination wild with a similar scenario.One week later, my little boy was awake and stable. It was time to bid farewell.“ I can't thank you enough for the sacrifices you have made for my son.…”He chuckled. “ Isn't that what family is?" "Hazel, you and Kelvin are part of my home. I can't wait to hold him and teach him.”He beamed, excitedly.My eyes traveled to my sandals. I had chosen this one in particular because it was the last gift he gave me bef
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 5: Brink of insanity
I paced on the corridor, heart thudding above the roof of my head. This could be the miracle I have longed for. If he heard our conversation, I might have my breakthrough. Hopes up, I bid time to elapse, but the rays disappeared sooner.They are moving him.I try to interfere, but the granny shows up wearing a stern look. I gulped, subdued. He was being wheeled away. To me, it felt like my last drop of sanity was slipping by, tethering at the rough edges I had been before.I thought I was ready. I thought I was strong enough to hold the fragments of my shattered heart together and piece it back. This was my chance. It hurts so much, and it feels like my heart is slit in two. Alone, I could dare the consequences.But there's a boy who leans on me like I'm his lifeline. I owe Kelvin so much that I can afford to walk away from the man who gave meaning to my existence.I turned to leave and paused at the sound of my name.It doesn't feel real until his voice slit through space to melt i
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter Four: Her Decision
" How dare you make Roman go through a surgery? Hasn't he been through enough? Every single time you enter his life, you bring nothing but bad luck with you." She snarled." So you admit you have been lying to him all along? It all makes sense now. He thinks you're me because you were there when he woke up. He knows you because the second he looked at you, even without his complete memory, you seemed familiar. He trusted you and so you took the chance and replaced me."She scoffs. " You're simply delusional. Not everything has to be connected to you. Your false sense of importance is so nauseating. It has blinded you to the point you do not realise that no one wants you around. Not even our parents."" Is that why you went for him?" I countered, calmly. "You suddenly found out there's someone in this world who genuinely cared about me and you couldn't stand it. You need to up your game, cause your time here is about to expire. Sylvester or Roman, whatever you choose to call him. My
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter Three: Comatose
I pressed my lips together suppressing a moan. My nipples harden, pressing against the cup of my bra. I cross my arms, struggling to steady my heavy breath. His eyes follows my discomfort and nestled on my beating chest." Are you alright?"" Oh no..." My mind screamed at him.When Sylvester and I met, I was a cyber security enthusiast. But I knew nothing beyond Microsoft word and Excel. He on the other hand knew every byte and megabyte of coding, website development and so many things I couldn't imagine someone would create from scraps of metal. As a visiting lecturer assistant, I couldn't bring myself to approach him. When I finally did, I brought a proposal. If he teaches me well, I will marry him.Just finding out his previous passkey melted my heart all over again.He heaves a deep sigh. He must have thought I'm clueless or overreacting. " It's Diana's birthday."I fought the urge to tell him, " you mean, my birthday." However I antagonised him, his presence, his cologne, the
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter Two: With Baby's Daddy
Throughout the drive to the hospital. I second guessed myself. " Was it really Sylvester?" I try to remind myself that Diana has admitted his identity." But why?" Our two years of marriage was the best time of my life. Sylvester said it's his as well. What changed? Why did he leave?I dabbed my eyes, pushing off the thought of my twin having a child by my son's father. It crippled my heart. Every breath I take fleeted with agonizing difficulty. Fear dumbs down my senses. How will I explain it all to Kelvin in the future?He's asleep when I arrive. But something is off. Either someone took him to bed, or he dozed off and someone else tucked him in.The bedsheets weren't evenly tucked. One edge of it strayed from the side of the bed. If there's one thing I know about my five year-old, it's the fact that never happens."Alright, get up. I know you're not sleeping."He didn't move. Kelvin is a light sleeper, so I'm apprehensive when he lies still. My eyes wanders to his laptop. It isn'
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter One: Back to life
" How do the dead come back to life?"I buried the remains of my husband. I watched the undertakers lower the casket. For five years, I have mourned his death. But, how's he here...in the flesh, healthy, happy, but with another woman?It feels like reliving my worst nightmare. This man— tall, with raven black hair — wedded me, but two years later, he left me. Burnt beyond recognition in a car accident.I trudged forward, confused and curious. My heart beat accelerated. My steps felt like a sprint. All I can hear is the thumping sound in my chest. A sudden chill floods my spine. It couldn't be a ghost of his. Sylvester loved me enough not to put me through this horror.Before I could get closer, he snapped in my direction and smiles. " Come." He waved at me. My rekindled hope cooled in the chimney the instant I met the polite smile. It was how he welcomed strangers. " Strangers, " I repeated to myself."You must be Hazel. They're just telling me about you. " He says, casually. Devoid o
