MasukIt was only like a minute or two minutes' walk, and I halted because of what I saw…The arrangements. It was something I never expected. The chairs, the decorations, the sparkling balloons which made up Lily and Lewis' names. The cakes, the food, the drinks, the workers… Everything was organized. I went and stood next to her. “When did you plan all of this? No. How were you able to plan all of this?”. I asked her as I could not believe my eyes. The fact that she was able to do all of this behind my back, and without me suspecting her or having the slightest idea about it, told me that I had underestimated her.But I knew I would not let that happen again. “Shocked, right?”. She asked with a bright smile. And as if staring at the sky as she took a deep breath, she wrapped her arms on her abdomen as she added, “I figured, since I can never do this for my own kids, I might as well do it for Lily and Lewis”. “They are so precious to me, and I love them”. She said and stared at them
3 days later, Marvin's pov, “Is there any news about her?”. I asked him as he stepped inside my office. I did not even leave him the chance to breathe or feel comfortable.He did not answer me. And seeing the guilty expression on his face as he slightly lowered his head, told me everything I needed to hear. The search for her was unsuccessful… again. “You may leave”. I said to him after clenching my fists. I was in no mood today to yell at him. Neither was I in the mood to blame him for not being able to find her. It has been close to 9 years since she left. And the fact that I have not been able to find her or any trace of her ever since then, showed me that I had overestimated her. I rubbed my palms on my face, and after I removed my palms from my face and saw that he still stood there and had not moved an inch, made me frown at him and furrow my brows. “Didn't I just permit you to leave? What are you still doing here?”. I demanded, not expecting that he would fall to his
Georgina's pov,I gritted my teeth behind the face mask I was wearing, and was literally forcing myself not to puke or push her away. Shaking her hand made me feel so disgusted, and caused my stomach to twist inside out. Once she finally stopped shaking me, I felt the urge to wash my hand right away. But there was a big flaw, because I could not do that right now. “Please come and have a seat”. She said to me and led me to a table. I sat there on the chair, and she sat next to me, with her eyes fixed on my face. She pointed her index finger at the mask I was wearing. “Why the mask, Doctor Gina? Are you even able to breathe well? You should remove it”. She said to me, but I never panicked at her words. I chuckled. “I prefer to keep it on. It's better that way”. I calmly replied to her, before within seconds, the guests surrounded my table, with each one of them eager to take a picture of me.“Please look over here, Doctor Gina”. “I am a big fan of yours”. “My daughter is a big
Claire's pov, I finished bathing and wore one of my best outfits. It was a thin blue gown, and had many sparkles and glimmers. I had worn this particular gown on purpose because Harrison was the one who bought it for me. I figured that whatever occasion he had prepared, the outfit was going to be a perfect fit for that. I grabbed my black heels and wore them, before I went and stood in front of the large wall mirror that had glowing lights attached to every corner. My face was as bright and clear as the sun, and my hair was styled to the side, and it rested on my shoulder. “Perfect”. I muttered, before my lips curved into a smile. After putting on a piece of necklace, I left the room, as I wanted to find him. I went to the living room, and seeing that he was not there made me slightly shake my head, because I realized where he might certainly be. He must be with Jamari, our daughter. With that, I changed course and walked in the direction of her room. When I stood in front of
The next day, Claire's pov, I woke up and sat up on the bed, feeling very tired and sore.I had been working throughout the week. My bones were literally exhausted, and today was the day I finally got a break from everything work. For the first time in 2 months, I woke up by 8am. ‘Did he leave already?’. I thought, before I slightly shook my head. Maybe he did not want to disturb me and left without telling me. I smiled at the thought of that. “Nancy, come here”. I said, and at that instant, the door to the bedroom was opened. She walked in and came to my side. “You called. What do you need, Madam?”. She asked me. “Get me a glass of water. And be fast about it. I am so thirsty, and my mouth feels like a desert”. I said to her, and she left the room immediately. At the same time, I got out of bed and went and stood in front of the wall mirror. Seeing my reflected face and appearance in the mirror caused a small smile to appear on my face. My black hair shimmered like the nig
I checked the time on my cell phone. It was exactly 6:05pm. It was indeed a long boring flight, and along the way, I had imagined myself wearing a parachute and jumping out of the jet. Too bad I did not let my intrusive thoughts win. “How far till we arrive?”. I asked Clara as I was sick and tired. For once, I wanted to get to a bedroom, lay on the bed, shut my eyes, and sleep off. I don't remember the last time I had a good night's sleep. "Be patient. We are going to arrive there soon”. She said, making me sigh in defeat and shut my eyes, before fixing my gaze outside the limousine as I watched people who were going on about their day. By the time I turned around and coincidentally glanced at Clara, I saw her grinning and raising an eyebrow. “What did you do?”. I asked her because I figured she would not have acted like that if she had not done something. She smiled widely. “Don't worry. You will soon see it”. She said to me, and at that point, I knew that what
