The morning was soft and quiet.

A thin mist hovered over the lake, and the air carried that gentle stillness that only came with early hours. Birds chirped faintly in the distance, and the world felt… slower.

Lisha walked along the narrow path alone, her hands loosely clasped behind her back. No heels today and no meetings. She wasn’t thinking about work or Ethan.

“Okay… I have to ask.”

Lisha stopped. She turned slightly. And there she was.

Adia.

Standing a few steps behind her, slightly out of

  • Till death murder us apart   She comes first

    By the time Adia and Lisha returned home, the late afternoon sun had softened into a warm glow, casting long shadows across the driveway.Adia balanced a few shopping bags in her hands, her energy returning slightly after the quiet tension at the mall. Lisha followed behind, quieter, thoughtful, still carrying the weight of everything the day had stirred within her.But the moment they stepped inside, something felt different. Someone was already there.Adia paused.“Grandma?”From the sitting room, her grandmother sat upright, hands folded neatly over her handbag, her presence commanding as always.“Adia,” she said, her tone firm.Adia frowned slightly. “You should’ve called me, I would’ve come to you.”“It was urgent,” her grandmother replied. “That’s why I came.”Lisha stepped forward politely.“Good afternoon, Ma’am,” she greeted gently.Her grandmother looked at her. There was no warmth in her eyes.“Afternoon,” she replied shortly.The difference was clear. Lisha felt it immedia

  • Till death murder us apart   Till we meet again pt2

    The door had barely closed behind Lisha when the tension began to build.Adia was still glowing with excitement, helping Lisha carry her bags inside, chatting endlessly about where she would stay, what she needed, how everything would work.Dave, however, stood still in the middle of the living room. Processing what was going on.“Adia,” he finally said.There was something in his tone that made her pause.“We need to talk.”The bedroom door shut behind them, cutting off the warmth from the rest of the house.“What is this?” Dave asked, his voice low but firm. “You didn’t even tell me she was moving in.”Adia crossed her arms, already prepared.“I did tell you,” she argued. “I’ve been telling you.”“Telling me she *should* move in is not the same as her showing up with luggage!”Adia exhaled sharply, her excitement fading into frustration.“She has nowhere to go, Dave.”“That’s not true and you know it,” he replied. “She has a mansion.”“A house isn’t the same as a home,” Adia shot ba

  • Till death murder us apart   Till we meet again

    Rain drizzled softly against the café windows, painting the city in blurred streaks of gray and gold. The afternoon crowd had thinned, leaving only scattered conversations and the faint sound of jazz playing overhead.Lisha sat quietly near the corner window, her fingers wrapped around a cup of untouched coffee. She looked different now. Not because of the expensive black dress she wore or the tiredness beneath her eyes, but because grief had changed the way she carried herself.Carefully.As though the world might break her if she moved too quickly.When the café door opened, Adia stepped inside, scanning the room until their eyes met. For a second, neither woman moved. Then Adia smiled softly. Lisha stood, and the two embraced tightly.It had been weeks since they had truly seen each other—not through television screens, not through headlines or whispered gossip, but face to face. Real. Human.“How are you holding up?” Adia asked as they sat down.Lisha gave a small laugh, though th

  • Till death murder us apart   Ethan is dead

    The city woke the next morning to chaos.News headlines exploded with speculation. The celebration of new leadership was overshadowed by a single, haunting question: *Who killed Ethan Cross?*His body was taken for examination, and within days, the answer surfaced—poison. Not accidental. Not natural. Intentional.Lisha was left shattered. Confusion clung to her like a shadow. She replayed the night over and over, searching for something she had missed. He had been fine. He had been smiling. He had been alive.Investigators traced every detail, every movement, every hand that had touched a glass. The conclusion was chilling—his drink had been spiked. Quietly. Deliberately. In a room full of people.Staff members, bartenders, servers—no one was spared questioning. Suspicion spread like wildfire. Trust dissolved.Somewhere in that room, someone had decided Ethan Cross needed to die.Across town, far from the flashing cameras and whispered conspiracies, another storm was unfolding.Dave a

  • Till death murder us apart   How to reach a downfall

    Lisha changed. But not in the way Ethan believed. She became quieter, more compliant, more… obedient. She followed his rules stayed when told. And Ethan noticed.“You see?” he said one evening, handing her an expensive bracelet. “This is how things should be.”Lisha smiled faintly.“Thank you.”More gifts followed. Jewellery, designer clothes. Luxuries that once symbolized success now felt like chains. But behind that calm exterior Lisha was thinking. She was no longer reacting. She was preparing.A week later an invitation arrived. A high-profile event. The coronation of a new mayor. A gathering of power and influence. Ethan was attending which meant Lisha had to be there too.The night of the event everything was extravagant.Lights flashed and cameras rolled. The media crowded the entrance.Lisha stepped out of the car beside Ethan dressed elegantly in a red silky dress.To the world they looked untouchable. Cameras captured everything. The event was broadcast live.Dave sat on the

  • Till death murder us apart   Long live Emery

    The days that followed grew darker. Ethan’s control didn’t ease.It tightened. What started as rules became restrictions. What started as anger became violence.Lisha tried again.And again.Different stations.Different officers.Different approaches.But every time the same outcome. It was either dismissed or delayed.It didn’t matter how she spoke or what proof she brought. Ethan’s name always arrived before justice did. And slowly even hope began to feel exhausting.Adia stayed close with calls and messages. Her constant reassurance.“You’re stronger than this,” Adia would say.“We’ll find a way.”But strength felt distant now.And “a way” felt impossible.So Lisha did the only thing she could to survive, she complied. Not because she agreed. But because resisting cost her too much.One afternoon Lisha needed air. Needed something familiar. Something safe. So she called the one person who still brought her peace.Gladys.When Gladys arrived, her presence softened the house instan

  • Till death murder us apart   When success gets busy

    In several years the evening used to be the loudest time in their house.Ava’s giggles bouncing off the walls. Dave chasing her around the couch. Lisha reading bedtime stories in dramatic voices that made Ava laugh so hard she couldn’t breathe.But lately, the house had grown… quiet.Too quiet.---
