The transparent door of the police station was plunged open as Carlos sauntered inside with his heart pounding beneath his chest. He had hoped and prayed that his wife hadn't hurt anyone and at the same time he wanted to assure himself that she wasn't hurt at all. Carlos swiped a finger under his eyes as he stared around to locate where his wife was. The minutes he caught a glimpse of her. He hurriedly trudged towards her before engulfing her into a very comforting hug but she pulled away before pointing at the suspect, "Carlos, that's the man who took advantage of me. That's the bastard who did it!" Miriam told him but Carlos' reaction wasn't what she had expected. "Excuse me, can we find a suitable way to resolve this issue because I apologize for what my wife had done!" He apologized and that had shocked the living daylight of everyone. "What are you doing Carlos?" Miriam asked in shock."Doris, please take her to the car and wait for me there!" Carlos said, handing his keys ov

Carlos had caught a glimpse of Henry running out of the house in tears. He went after him only to notice him hidden at the back of the purple blooming flowers use to beautify the house. He sighed before crouching next to the boy. "You know what Henry?" Carlos said placing a hand on the boy's shoulders."Your mum wasn't really mad at you, you just have to be patient with her because she is just feeling bad about something and I can't explain any of that to you because it's something you won't understand but please don't get mad at her!" Carlos said pleadingly as Henry glared into his eyes. "What's happening to her? You can tell me about it since I'm all grown up. I know that I would understand anything you tell me!" Henry said and that only made Carlos sigh heavily. "Okay, there was someone who hurt your mother so badly and what he did was such a terrible thing. Your mother still feels the pain and that's why she gets upset very often, but don't you worry because your mother isn't a

Jeffrey crouched one of his knees on the floor before holding Carlos in the arm to get him up from the floor. "Man, that's enough for the night, you are so damn drunk!" Jeffery tried to help him up but it proved abortive. "Jeffery___ Jeffrey, it's okay. You can leave me now because I'm a bad person. Just leeeeaaaave___," Carlos yelled at the top of his voice but that didn't push or move Jeffery one bit. "Carlos, you are not a bad person. You are not the one to blame at all, I know that you are not a rapist. I'm your beta and your best friend, I know you so well like the back of my fingers. That Jeffery guy just happened to set you up for sure! They are the bad guys and they are the ones to feel guilty and not you," Jeffery reassured Carlos calmly. "But I was the one left in that room that night and not them, I'm the rapist who did it to her!" Carlos said to his friend. "Buddy, you wouldn't have ended up doing such a thing if those pricks didn't plan it. They had Miriam kidnapped a

"What the hell are you saying?" Miriam asked with an irritated expression masked on her face. "Miriam, you're still the one for me. We just parted ways because of the situation that both of us didn't expect to come along but I do know that our love for one another is still here despite it all. Just give me another chance and come with me!" Christian begged like an idiot."What you are saying is very impossible because I do love Carlos and can't leave him," Miriam told Christain plainly while staring into his tired-looking eyes and his forehead which was getting sweaty. "Miriam, he just came between us. Don't you get it at all? I'm supposed to be your husband and I know that you only married him just to replace me." Christian uttered a little confidence in his tune but Miriam wiggled her head in pity."That's not true at all," she told him bluntly and sincerely. "Alright, I'm thankful for your help but that definitely doesn't mean that I'm coming with you. Christian, I have already

"You don't know what Carlos is going through right now. We don't know how long things have been hard for him since you both got together but it doesn't mean that he can leave without you in this life!" Eleanor told her sister who had trudged into her room to discuss some issue. "Eleanor, Carlos has been patient with me for the past six years and maybe he is giving up on us because of the pain he feels. I didn't even notice that I was hurting my own husband," Miriam said gloomily."It's really like that, couples sometimes don't understand each other but what is important is that you both love each other and you should make sure to show him that, you should show him that you can't do without him in your life," Eleanor told her. "But he already knows that," Miriam said getting up from the bed before trudging to the window side. She pushed her hair behind before rubbing her arms together as the light from the moon illuminated her face. "I know that your husband knows but does he feel i
