“What the hell is this Jim?”Peach asked angrily.“I uuumh decided to uuuumh drop by for some ummmmh details on the school uuumh,”he stammered to say.“Just drop it.Can you explain how the fuck I signed this?And why you are showing up here with these fucking flowers when you are supposed to be at some fucking meeting?”she asked.“Look this is my office not a space to settle your problems.I suggest you go home and sort out whatever this is,”Hermione said.Peach sat down.There was a moment of silence.“Are you both having an affair?”she asked.
“Between me and him,its strictly business.There is no chance of anything else ever happening,”she said.“Yeah ofcourse hunnie.Its just business,”he said.“Yeah because you wouldn't dare cheat on me.Especially with her because if you did,the world would know what really happened the day your daughter died,”she said and with that she stormed out of the office. TCheryl was dressed up to go out on a date with her boyfriend.“Where are you going?”her mum asked her.“Nowhere near anybody's husband,”she said sarcastically.Hermione glared at her.“Listen to me young lady,you can be angry all you want but you will not disrespect me in any way,do you understand me?”she asked.Cheryl was surprised at the tone her mum was using.She had never used that tone with her.“For you to be respected mommy,you have to respect yourself first and I don't think you do,”she said.“Watch how you speak to me Cheryl Jones.I am not your agemate?”she asked.She rolled her eyes.“Look,I am getting late,I'll see you when I do,”she said then left banging the door behind her. Cass was waiting for her outside.He kissed her and handed her the bouquet of flowers as he opened the door for her to get in.“So where are we going?”she asked.“Its a surprise,wait till you see,”he said starting the engine.He took her to one of their properti
When she woke up she was in an oversize T-shirt, probably Cassidy's.There was music playing in the background.The sheets had been changed too.She had had the sweetest most amazing sleep.She could smell fried eggs.She got off the bed.The house was still beautiful during the day but not as beautiful as it was at night.She followed the smell to the kitchen.He was there trying to cook.He was a mess.“You are awake,good morning love,”he said receiving her with a kiss.“Good morning baby, what's with all this mess?”she asked looking around.He scratched his forehead.“I was trying to fix you some romantic breakfast but uuuumh failed successfully.So I opted for scrambed eggs which is less complicated,”he said.She smiled and reached out to kiss him.“You are the best,I love you and scrambled eggs is good but first I need to take a shower,”she said.“Should I join you?”he asked lifting her up as she wrapped her legs around him.“I'll be just fine love,”she said.“Are you sure gra
"Mum, what is it?Are you sick?"she asked horrified."God no,no.Sit please,"she said.Cheryl sat down obediently.She took in a deep breath."So when I was living in this town back then,I was married and I had a child,a daughter,"she said.Cheryl looked surprised.How could her mum have not told her that before.She had a sister?Was she given up for adoption? And who was the father?Her mum reached out to hold her hands."She passed away unfortunately an...,"she stopped as her voice broke.Cheryl snuggled closer to give her mum a hug.No wonder she was so overprotective."Mum I'm so...,"she was saying."No, let me finish.I don't really know the real events that led to her death.I tried to get them behind bars but they bribed the judges and she never really got the justice she deserved.I never had as much money as I do now.The day you saw me at the cemetery,I was paying a visit to her grave,"she said.Cheryl wiped away a tear.And yet here she had thought the worst of her mum."On the day she
Cass couldn't understand.Cheryl had gone completely silent on him.She wasn't replying to his texts,she wasn't picking his calls,she hadn't come to school the previous week.He'd even tried seeing her at home but she had refused to see him.He couldn't think of anything he could have done to deserve this treatment from her.He'd been told it was normal,that she would come around,that he should give her space but he couldn't anymore. He'd found out that she would come to school this morning from Winter.He'd planned an entire thing for her just cause he thought maybe she needed the reminder that she was amazing and beautiful and that he loved her.Because he did love her. As he walked to class he saw her walking with Winter.He started walking towards them.She saw him then immediately closed her locker and walked away hurriedly.He called her name but she ignored him.His heart sank.It broke a little.Why? Why wou
Cami heard what happened.She could swear she felt something too.She'd noticed Cass had been distant and hurting, they were twins after all.She didn't know what had happened between Cass and Cheryl.But she knew atleast she had been right about Cheryl.The bitch was no good for her brother. She found Cheryl reading some book.Not really reading,just staring at it.“Hey you,”she said.Cheryl stood and turned facing her.“What?”she asked.“I thought you were done with all this bullshit,”she said.Cheryl looked at her puzzled.“What are you talking about?”Cheryl asked.“The reason you ever showed interest on my brother was to hurt him.And after the last time we made peace I thought we were good.So what's wll this? Why are you doing this to Cass?”she asked angrily.“Cami, don't involve yourself in things you know nothing about,”she said then shoved the book back in her bag abd started to leave.Cami pushed her.“Oh! I know alot.I know you and Cass
Hermione burst into the room.She was still unconscious.The doctor was attending to her.She was bleeding from her head.“Excuse me ma'am you can't be in here,you have to wait outside until the patient ...”she said.“This is my daughter and yes I have to fucking be here,”she said.Three nurses helped take her out.Hermione broke down.Not another child.Not this one.She sat there staring into space praying and crying.That girl Cami.This was the second time Cheryl would be in hospital because of her.She had to take legal action.No justice could be served at the expense of her child.She had to do something. She was still deep in thought when the doctor emerged.“How is she?”she asked standing up.“We need to conduct a blood transfusion on her immediately.We don't have enough blood here so if you or any family or volunteers would give blood like right now it would be of great help,”he said.She couldn't do it.She was had a different blood grou
A Specialist!“What do you mean a specialist?”Jim asked.“Her condition,only a specialist can deal with.We don't have the capability to help her,”he said.“I can't wait that long,get that doctor here.I don't care how I want him here tomorrow morning even if I have to pay him twice his charges,okay doctor... what's your name?”Hermione asked.“Dr.Campbell,”he said.“Are we in agreement Dr.Campbell.Tomorrow morning.I'll pay him twice the amount he charges,thrice if I have to,”she said.“Yes ma'am,”he said then went ahead to his office.“Hey,its going to be alright,I promise,”Jim said to Hermione.“The only promise I want right now is your wife and daughter away from this place.I don't want them anywhere near my daughter.Can you promise me that Jim?”she asked.“Yes,I can promise that,”he said.He walked over to his family and summoned for them to go home. At home he had to address it.“So mind telling me why you can't seem to control yourself young la
Early the next morning the police pulled up outside the Brickley's resident.Hermione had pressed charges.“Its 7:00 am mrs.whats your name?”Peach asked.“Miss Simon,ma'am.This is a warrant of arrest for Miss.Brickley for attempted murder against Miss Jones,”she said.Cass and Cami had woken up because of the commotion.Jim was just finishing breakfast.“What?”she asked in disbelief looking through the papers she'd just been handed.Jim practically flew to the door.“Hermione is having our baby girl arrested for attempted murder,”Peach told Jim.Jim looked at the papers.Cami was frightened shaking.Cass was trying to comfort her.“Officer I am sure we can talk about this,”Jim said.“Yes we can but in the police station.You can get her a lawyer but for now I need Miss Brickley to come with me down to the police station,”another officer said.“I will pay you twice what Hermione is paying you,”Peach said.“Excuse me Mrs.Brickley,we do not accept bribes.Anything you say now can and will be use
