Night time came sooner than i expected and i didn't have plans on heading home.

I got into the car and pulled out of the driveway,the engine roared to life as i headed out onto the open roads with nowhere specific in mind i drove aimlessly through the city.

My grip on the steering wheel was firm as i drove through the bustling street lost in thoughts.

I needed air, space and a few moments away from the thoughts consuming my mind.

The street looked beautiful and just from admiring it made it eas

  • Too late to want me back,Ex husband    CHAPTER 14:The Enemy of my Friend

    Richard glanced at me, his eyes lingering on my outfit for a moment longer than I would have liked.“You’ve changed your style of dressing,” he remarked. “You wear big clothes now. That’s new.”I forced a casual smile, resisting the urge to tug at the oversized fabric covering my stomach.“I just prefer this style now. It’s more comfortable.”His eyes narrowed slightly, but thankfully, he didn't press the issue.“Let’s begin with what we’re here for,” he said, immediately shifting the conversation.Relief washed over me.The last thing I needed was Richard becoming suspicious. At fourteen weeks, my belly bump had finally begun to show, and hiding it beneath loose-fitting clothes was becoming increasingly difficult.My carefully laid-out plan was slowly beginning to unravel.But I couldn't let it.Not yet.I had come too far.Faith was the only thing keeping me going.Richard continued speaking, but his words gradually faded into the background as my thoughts consumed me. I stared blan

  • Too late to want me back,Ex husband    CHAPTER 13:The Same Team

    Richard just called.I sent the message to Daniel, my fingers barely leaving the screen before his reply came through.“What’s his deal?”He responded so swiftly, it was almost as though he had been waiting for me to reach out.I continued pacing slowly across the room, my arms crossed tightly over my chest.“He says it’s better off speaking face to face.”I frowned.“That’s fishy don't you think?,” I sent another text A few seconds later, Daniel replied.“Really fishy. At this point, I don’t trust the Crofts anymore.”Neither did I.Something about Richard suddenly wanting to speak face to face made my stomach twist uneasily.He hasn't really been a fan.I paced a little faster, my mind running through every possible explanation.Then, against my better judgment, I let my curiosity get the best of me.“You should go hear what he has to say.”Daniel replied.I stared at the message,a strange feeling settling in the pit of my stomach.But whatever Richard wanted to discuss, I had a fee

    My very own nemesis.The man I had been trying so desperately to keep out of my life.He stood there with an unreadable expression, his eyes fixed intently on me. Then, slowly, his gaze shifted past my shoulder, as though he were trying to see who had been inside with me.A slow, knowing smirk tugged at the corner of his lips.“Dee yet again?” he questioned.My stomach dropped.Of all the questions he could have asked, that was the one I least wanted to answer.I tightened my grip on the edge of the door, refusing to let him see the sudden panic flashing through me.“What are you doing here, Ethan?”His smirk widened.“I think the better question is…”He leaned slightly closer, his eyes narrowing as they remained fixed on mine.“What were you and your so-called Dee doing here together?”Three years ago, those words would have sent several streams of guilt—and perhaps even foolish butterflies—through my stomach. I would have been secretly thrilled by the thought that he cared enough to

    I came home to see Daniel on my veranda“Shit”I exclaimed as I made my way to the front door.“Damn it mara couldn't you pick your call you got me scared.”He already started nagging.“I'm sorry.”“What did you do?”“I didn't make it to my destination”“You should come in, I'll tell you all about it.”I gestured as I was already standing by the door.“So nonchalant”He scoffed as he swayed his way through the door.“I'm listening”“Oh please could I atleast settle down”“Sure queen settle down”he teased.I rolled my eyes dropping my keys and bag on the glass table in the middle of my sitting room as I say gently.“I was driving to the penthouse but I never made it there,I was going to confront him”Daniel was the only one who saw through my hardened act.He knew what to say,when to say it and how to say it even when it's blunt and hard for me to take in.“This case is no longer a matter of emotions.”He beganI felt bitter not because the truth was cruel, but because it was honest in a
