IVY

I watched the housekeepers put my boxes in the car trunk as my eyes gathered tears.

So this was to be my life now?

There was absolutely nothing wrong with me, but with his power, the detective had switched everything and declared me mentally unstable.

And now, a rehabilitation center.

“Ivy,” Mr. Silver called and I turned.

He hadn’t said a word since the whole incident. As a matter of fact, I hadn’t even set eyes on him until right now. My mum was driving me to the airport where I would be

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Not A Product Of Love

    IVYI thought that he wouldn’t want to say anything about it, and we sat in silence for a while, but eventually, he began to narrate, and I just sat there, listening deeply to him as though my life depended on it.“Your mum and I had a one-nightstand that resulted in her being pregnant with you,” he started, much to my shock.“A one-nightstand?” I asked, barely able to believe what I just heard.Being a product of a one-nightstand wasn’t how I ever envisioned I was made. I had thought that it was a love story that blossomed into something special until one person left, and that person being my dad.Just like the story between Alexa’s parents.I did hear about it.Mr. Silver and Alexa’s mother had fallen in love. He had proposed to her and they had gotten married. Then they started the company before they even birthed Alexa.Alexa was a product of genuine love between two people, and until her mum passed, she experienced being raised by parents who loved her and would do anything for h

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Getting Along

    IVY“No, that’s not true,” I said, but it was more like I was trying to make myself believe otherwise.Deep down, I began to worry again because truly, Gloria didn’t say anything about how I would get back, and I wasn’t wise enough to ask her about it or even take the number of the cab driver so that when I was ready to leave, he would be here to pick me up.My dad scoffed and took his seat. Then he began to sip from whatever what in his cup.I would have called Gloria, but since I was dragged into the mental home, I lost access to a phone. For over a year now, I hadn’t been able to make use of a phone.And Gloria knew.The mere thought of being truly stuck made me deeply worried.I certainly couldn’t live here with this man who was still very much a stranger to me!“I need to get in touch with her,” I told him.“Go ahead,” he said indifferently.I glared at him for acting this way.“Help me get in touch with her, Jack,” I demanded.He must have known that if I could, I would have don

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Dumped And Abandoned

    IVYWhen he saw that I wasn’t willing to come in, he walked back into the cabin, but he left the door open for me.I swallowed hard and contemplated whether or not to go in, which was very ironical because just some minutes ago, I was begging him to open the door for me.What other choice did I have?It was either go in with him or stay out here until something unpleasant happened to me, and as I weighed my best options, I realized that it was way better for me to be in there than to be out here.He wouldn’t hurt me, would he?Slowly, I walked into the cabin, and I was right; it was cozy and warm, so much so that I almost sighed with deep relief, and it was even better because it was it was neat and welcoming, unlike the owner.“Shut the damn door; you are going to bring in the cold with you,” he snapped angrily.Only then did I realize that I had left the door open, or maybe it was a deliberate act; something to keep myself safe, but the truth was that nothing would ever keep me safe

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Go Away

    IVYIt took almost eternity before he turned around to face me, and I instantly took three steps back instantly.His face was like that of a monster.It was fully covered in beards.And for a moment, we just stared at each other, or more like he glared at me. Instead of running away like my head was telling me, I just stood there and stared, but I could hear the heavy beating of my chest.It was intense.“What you are doing here?” He eventually asked me, his voice thick and hostile.I swallowed hard, but my throat was dry already and I couldn’t find anything to swallow.“To...see you,” I told him, almost stuttering.“Go back to where you are coming from,” he snapped, making me cower for a second.I was getting all the signs and indications to leave, but I just couldn’t. I couldn’t bring myself to leave now that I was here.As I stared at him, I was still in shock.For years, I never thought that a day would come when I would be standing right in front of my biological father after tak

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   The Visit

    IVYI arrived at the cabin at the break of dawn. Gloria had given me the address and helped me get a cab that would take me to my dad’s cabin, well disguised, of course, and before the break of dawn, I had left to pay him a visit.My dad, for the first time in God knows how long.I didn’t have much memories of him because he left when I was pretty much younger, and at a point, I just thought that he was dead, especially after my mum got married to Mr. Silver and I was adopted as his stepdaughter.“Are you sure you know where you are going?” He asked me worriedly when he got to where he was supposed to drop me.Gloria already did everything she needed to do, like tell him where he should drop me off and also paying him.It was in a the middle of the woods and so I could understand why he was worried about me.Gloria did say that I needed to drop right there and take the rest of the journey to the cabin on foot so that my dad wouldn’t be disturbed by the sight of any car, and more impor

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   More Dangerous

    MARKMy heart almost stopped when she mentioned Donald Shell, and also, the fact that she had mentioned Alexa initially.There was no way I could have just let her go.“Please, sir, I don’t want any troubles with him. I just want to be as far away from him as possible,” Gina pleaded tearfully.The coffee in my hand, which was given to me a few seconds ago that was hot, had almost instantly gone cold.I dropped it and focused my attention on Gina.“You are not going to get into trouble,” I tried to assure her, but Gina was so scared that my words did nothing to make her feel any better.“He is very dangerous,” Gina said.Her lips were quivering now.“I know that, Gina,” I said.I didn’t move an inch because I was trying to be careful. The last thing I wanted to do was make her think that I wanted to take advantage of her. On the contrary, I merely wanted to make her feel safe and comfortable enough to speak to her.“But do you also know who I am?” I asked her.Gina nodded.“You are Mar

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   My Vows

    MARKI was stunned to speechlessness at Alexa’s response.Even though we didn’t see anything, it was obvious that either something had happened, or it had been about to, and she had to lie?“Are you sure, Miss Alexa?” The detective asked deeply.“Whatever it is, you can talk to the cops,” one of th

    ALEXA“I cannot believe this,” my dad said through clenched teeth.Then he got up at the same time and went to the door, yanking it open to catch who was there, but there was no one there.However, we both knew what we heard.The person probably sensed that he or she had been discovered, and took t
