An order from Liam

LEONAKatherine held my hands tightly and squeezed it in other to comfort me and remind me that she was there. She looked strong, like a pillar that I would fall to at that particular moment, but life was hitting me so hard, my heart was tired, my body was tired yet I didn’t know if I should fall to her and simply become weak or if I should simply be strong, and take whatever I get. The last seemed to be a better option since I still had Jordan to look after, I still had Genesis to hold and a world that was waiting for an explanation from me. Could I truly afford to be tired and weak? No, I could not afford to feel any of that emotion. Life was feeding me with thorns and it would only beat me down more. I had to keep fighting, because I still had something to fight for, I still had my son to be strong for.We followed the cops to a place we didn’t know. It looked like a laboratory of some kind but it was hidden and kept secret. I had no idea where we were going to. They had only infor

No time to mourn

For a long time, I simply held that letter in my hand. Tears refused to fall down my eyes anymore and my heart stilled. I recalled the last conversation we had, when he suddenly appeared for the art exhibition at Genesis.“You look lovely,” he had smiled at me, genuinely this time and it creeped me out. It’s been so long I saw him smile at me that way and it felt different, strange, yet my heart had missed that man who had turned into a stranger to me so suddenly. The loving father who had turned to a hateful and cold one and a husband who had turned to a cheat and an abuser later on.“What are you doing?” I replied, simply because I could not trust him. I had let go of our marriage after the last time he hit me and had not returned to the house ever since Jordan took me away. I was not planning to do that now, especially because I could not trust him.“I won’t return to you, so stop the pretense. And what are you doing here? Do you want to ruin the day for your daughter in law?” I pu

Out of darkness

GENESISWe stopped in front of the church and I stepped down immediately. But the moment I stepped down from the car, another feeling of dread settled at the pit of my stomach and I immediately turned to the direction we came from. My heart was hurting and my guts were telling me that something terrible was happening. Should I return?“If you are not feeling alright, we can go back,” Samantha suggested as she stepped down from the car. For a moment, I thought about going back, to be with Jordan, to know what was happening, to make sure that he wouldn’t leave me. But what could I do? It was not like I could keep him away from death and that was where God came in. I turned back to the church and shook my head.“No…” I turned to the guards that stepped out from the car that followed that of Samantha. I was shocked to see that a car was there speedily and with it were more than ten of them.“You’ve gotten pale, ma’am,” the one who entered the same car as I did enter.“I think we should re

Recovery

“Hey…” someone yelled beside me. I snapped my gaze to the voice and found Samantha looking at me with a frown on her face and worry in her eyes. I blinked and looked around, wondering if I was in the same place and if I was seeing right. She definitely could not be worried about me. I shook my head and tried to move but my knees and butt was hurting so bad, I groaned.“Why would you sleep, I thought you were praying?” she began chiding and I frowned.“What are you doing in here?”“You were not replying to any of my calls, I was thinking you died before I could kill you,” she replied and I glared at her.“Really?” I looked around.“What? He knows I’m a bad person even when I am not in the church,” she responded so casually. I sighed and shook my head, knowing that I was just going to waste my time arguing with her.“My guards could have woken me up. You didn’t have to come in, I’m not planning to die anytime soon,” I responded, remembering the voice of Jordan in my head. My heart was a

Changes

“He confided on his friend who helped him with his suicide mission. The coroner still hasn’t let go of the case since he was never terminally ill before he was euthanized. And the doctor might lose his license or go to jail for what he did to my husband,” mom Leona explained what happened from the beginning and how it was kept a secret from me and Jordan alone to what was happening as of recent.“But Liam wanted to die.”“That doesn’t mean that he should have assisted him,” Mom Leona cried. I shut my mouth and thought of what she might be feeling as of that moment. She was going through so much and I had no idea.“It turned out that he had a favor to repay to my husband and that was why he did it. Moreover, he was paid a very huge amount to do it and he does not feel scared of anything, not even losing his license.” She continued.“He knew what might happen and was prepared to pay the price,” I put in and she nodded her head in agreement.“We found some files, letters and flash drives

Changes ii

When I came out from the bathroom, Jordan was no longer in the bedroom and it made me feel worse. I changed quickly into a simple gown and flats and went downstairs. He was downstairs of course and they were all sitting at the table, waiting for me. I sighed and put on a smile on my face as I went down. Jordan got up from where he was sitting and pulled out a chair for me. It lifted my spirit and I smiled at him, but he looked away the moment our eyes met and my heart fell again.He sat back down and chatters rose around us. My entire family and friends were present and it was one of the rare moments of life that we should always cherish. It made me think of Liam and how we never actually had a decent meal with him, and now he was gone. I turned to Jordan who had a stoic expression on his face, no different on how he always did. Whenever something funny was said, he would smile with his eyes but he didn’t change his facial expression. I sighed and looked away, feeling guilty that he w

Hate, guilt and remorse

“He is going to be fine,” the doctor turned to me. He was one of the doctors of the family and I was beginning to get confused on how many family doctors they had. I sighed in relief and stared at his face. He looked peaceful and fine, but I was guilty since it was all my fault.“He shouldn’t be put through under any kind of stress, so this won’t repeat itself,” he warned and I gave him a nod.“I’m truly sorry for any inconvenience I might have caused you,” I entered and walked him to the door, before bidding him a goodnight. I walked back to the bedroom and stared at Jordan’s face. I was worried about him and it was a good thing that he was fine, that however, didn’t change that I was annoyed and hurt. I walked closer to him and made sure that he was covered properly, then I took a pillow and walked over to the couch. I went in search of another duvet and made a bed for myself and there I slept.JORDANI opened my eyes and found the familiar stars shinning above me. My heart eased up

A heart to hate

I never got to see my father so often anymore. He stayed far from me and never looked at me when ever we saw each other. He became a stranger, a shadow, a dream that never existed. This went on for weeks and all my mom could tell me was that he was just angry about something. I knew that was not it, because I had apologized time and time again for any wrong, I might have done. I have apologized for doing something I was not aware of and apologized on behalf of anyone who provoked him to such an extent, but the look in his eyes didn’t change and the way he spoke to me never changed. I couldn’t take it anymore and one morning, I had prepared early so I could join him to school. He always took me to school himself, except for days he was extremely busy. I stood at the door to the car he would use that morning and waited for him. When he came, he had a tight frown on his face but I smiled at him.“Good morning, dad,”“What is he doing here?” he turned to a guard beside me.“I want to join

Journal

Tears blurred my vision, seeing all the love he once had for me till I grew older. He was no longer in these videos and I was always alone. However, I wasn’t, because he was always somewhere, looking at me. I stopped having a smile on my face, I stopped being happy, I stopped running. That was after I was diagnosed and my father began to show his real self.More videos of me came up and I was almost never happy. One hour later, it was still me, during graduation, during family dinner, during public functions, videos of me that were never even supposed to exist. And in all of them, though I was alone, my father was at a distance and his eyes were always on me. They were not cold, they were not harsh, simply a father staring lovingly at his son. These videos went on even till the day my heart failed and I was rushed to the hospital. He kept telling me that he would make it right, that it would be fine, that he would change it all.Tears ran down my eyes when I realized that he knew ever

Second chances

“Even now that I see how much of a mistake, I made to have switched off my feelings because I feared losing him, I realize the mistake that I made and would want to make up for it. He never lets me, no matter how much I try, what I say or the gestures I make. Even the universe is against my attempt to make it right because it keeps getting in the way and every opportunity, it keeps slipping away from me. Maybe, it’s too late, maybe I had truly lost him even before I lost him. Maybe, I was never meant to be a father. Liam would have done a better job and he would be so disappointed in me. I ruined it, because I am a coward who can’t bear to be in pain anymore. I ruined it because I am a coward. And I fear that I won’t get it back. Is there even a need? I can just carry on being this person my son remembers. I can just allow him see me as he had always done and keep carrying on this act of a hateful father. It’s no longer complicated and the guilt won’t be as taunting if I take my act a
