SEREIA

The train rocked beneath i and Liyana like a lullaby but this lullaby couldn’t make me sleep. It just stared at Liyana who was curled up on the seat beside me, her head on my lap and her thumb stuck between her lips.

She had stopped asking me questions about an hour ago and I know it’s not because she understood but rather because she was tired.

She was barely five and I knew she couldn’t keep up with the chaos her mother had dragged her into.

    SEREIAThe train rocked beneath i and Liyana like a lullaby but this lullaby couldn’t make me sleep. It just stared at Liyana who was curled up on the seat beside me, her head on my lap and her thumb stuck between her lips.She had stopped asking me questions about an hour ago and I know it’s not because she understood but rather because she was tired. She was barely five and I knew she couldn’t keep up with the chaos her mother had dragged her into. I looked away from her and put the window, the city was gone now the buildings had shrunk now replaced by trees and fields that went on forever.I couldn’t recognize anything, it was the familiar New York streets, i didn’t know this place but somehow I didn’t care.My phone sat in my hand, heavy and useless. I had turned it off, the screen was dark, no text, no notifications all because I had turned it off.I couldn’t bear to see his name and I knew that if I see I would answer and I would be back to New York. I opened the window. Just

    SEREIAVALERIANThe drive home was long, I decided to return home earlier than before and that seemed to be a mistake because the traffic was heavy.It was like the city was angry but I couldn’t even ponder on the traffic because my mind kept drifting to her. Sereia.I could remember vividly how tears flowed down her eyes and each time the picture came into remembrance I felt a tightening in my chest, something I couldn’t name.Something I was scared to.Anybody thought that refused to leave my mind is how lenient I have been, I have let her disinter humiliate her countless time forgetting who I am.Valerian Ashford.I hold countries and lords in my hands but I hesitated at ruining the life of that woman who dares make sereia cry.Mine.My mind was a furnace and right now only the sight of Sereia and Liyana could quench the roaring fire. Then I saw it.A small shop stood at the corner of the street, it was small and unassuming yet it spoke of dainty and beautiful pieces.A sign on t

    VALERIANI opened my eyes immediately the clock reached 5:47, I didn’t even need to check it because I already knew. My body woke up at that exact time whether I liked it or not. It was a habit I had formed years ago and now I can’t seem to stop.I sat up from my bed and swung my feet onto my cold bed before trudging into my bathroom.The bathroom remained the same, the same way I always left it. Toothbrush holder bristles facing left, towels folded into thirds and a few other things. I reached for my toothbrush and began brushing and I brushed my teeth for exactly two minutes 11 seconds not a second more or less.I rinsed my mouth when I was done and splashed water on my face before trying myself and then I walked to my closet which was organized by color.Greys, blacks and whites. I pulled put out a charcoal suit, a white shirt and a dark tie.I dressed in front of the mirror. Adjusted my collar. Checked my cuffs. Everything was in place. Everything was precise.The man staring b

    SEREIAI stared at the ceiling for what felt like an eternity after reading the news. The numbers were still etched in my mind. The stock prices. The headlines. The comments. All of it. Valerian’s company was suffering because of me. Because of what people said I did. Because of a lie that just would not go away.I could not stay here. The thought crept in quietly like a whisper I did not want to hear. I tried to push it but it lingered. I sat up and rubbed my face, my eyes were swollen, my head and chest felt hollow.I needed to find Valerian. I needed to explain things to him to make this right. I stood up walked to the door unlocked it and stepped into the hallway.The stairs felt longer than usual. Each step felt heavier than the last. I could hear voices downstairs. Aurora’s tone, Annabelle’s sweet response, the clinking of coffee cups and the shuffle of feet.I reached the bottom of the stairs and turned the corner. Aurora saw me first and her face immediately changed, the cold

    SEREIAI walked…I didn’t know where I was going neither did I care, the only thing I knew was that I couldn’t remain here,And so I trudged the hallway stretched ahead of me, the carpets muffled my footsteps while the light buzzed over head.I walked past different rooms, past the elevators and past the ice machine that kept humming in the quiet. My face was wet with tears, my hands were shaking and my chest felt like someone was sitting on it. Everytime, every single time I thought things might be okay, something happened.I pushed through the door at the end of the hall entering into the cold echoing stairwell. I lowered myself and sat at top step pulling my knees to my chest before letting myself fall apart.I cried in between my knees, thinking of everything that happened this last few hours and tho I could hear my phone buzzing repeatedly I couldn’t even get myself to look at it. My phone buzzed again. Then again and again.I eventually got tired of the countless buzzing and

    SEREIAThe terrace was still in chaos, people were shouting, phones were flashing and even tho a lot of people surrounded me I was alone. Selena remained on the floor with her hand clutches to her stomach while she wailed. I stood frozen, hands raised, heart pounding as I stared at her.Then Lucas lunged at me."You bitch!" He yelled, his face was red and his eyes were wide and almost crazed. Two men grabbed his arms preventing him from hitting me but he eventually fought them off. "I'll ruin you! Do you hear me? I'll ruin your miserable life! I'll make sure everyone knows what you are!" He threatened and by now people were more intrigued, staring with dirty eyes and murmuring over the chaos."Someone call the police!""Get her away from here!""She pushed a pregnant woman!"I heard a number of people say and I didn’t even know who was who. Annabelle suddenly stepped forward, her face was pale but her eyes were hardened and cold. "I always knew you were trash. First you tried to ki

    THIRD PERSON Lucas’s hands slammed against the car mirror and the glass shattered immediately spreading across the asphalt. Pain shot through his arms as blood spilled from it but he didn’t seem to care. He ignored the pain kicking the tire of his car until his foot throbbed."She ran to him." He

    SEREIAThe car pulled up to the Nethrix building at exactly 7:58 AM and I stared through the tinted windows thinking I would see the reporters but the sidewalk was clear. No cameras.No reporters. Just people walking to work and living their normal lives. But it’s like my body didn’t recognize that

    SEREIALucas wasn’t good at this fathering stuff; he pushed Liyana on the swing, but it was too high causing her to grip the chains tightly, her face expressionless."Higher!" he spoke, like he was doing her a favor with a small smile on his face. "You want to go higher?" He asked and Liyana immedi
