The sunlight filtered through the window as Ray's eyes slowly lit up. His hands touched every side of the bed but nobody was beside him, he let out a small smile remembering all that had transpired yesterday. It was a happy feeling that he would never forget. He began to fix on his clothes when the door pulled open showing Rose, she was smiling while she held the tray filled with all sorts of morning delicacies.Ray was buttoning his shirt but he suspended what he was doing, and trudged towards her. He collected the tray and set it on the table before engulfing her in a very comforting hug. “Just want to let you know that last night was beyond amazing. Let's say I’m glad that I made the right choice and I was so right about you!” he said, placing a soft kiss on her head. “Common, stop teasing me already!” Rose said with a wide smile on each side of her face.“But I’m being serious. Your body was amazing and I wouldn’t mind doing it all over again!” He said as she hit his chest play

“Wait, that’s not true Rose. I and your little sister tried all our best to find you so you could be with her, I even sent an investigator to your town but he never saw you there! I looked for you for so many years but you weren’t found!” Claudia said holding Rose's arm to perhaps prevent her from leaving. “Then why did you pretend that you and father weren’t married from the beginning? I even mentioned my sister’s name but you had pretended and tried to fool me!” Rose yelled out at the top of her voice.“Because I found out that you hadn’t known about me yet, I didn’t want you to despise me without knowing the actual truth,” Claudia responded with a pitiful expression.“I know that you have nothing to do about this but we are all victims of lies. I also fell victim!” She added.“Mother told me something, you were the one who had imprisoned her abroad and that you were the reason why our family had gotten separated. So why do you think I should believe in you? Huh,” Rose asked plainl

Chantelle glared at the doctor in front of her with heavy and tired eyes while Mitch sat next to her. She seemed to be nodding at whatever the doctor was saying. “Tell me, have you felt this pain for a long time?” the doctor inquired. “Yes doctor, these past few weeks have felt like hell. I thought that the pain would go away but it only keeps getting worse!” she answered truthfully. “Have you been taking any medication?” the doctor questioned further.“I’m taking some herbal ones with my tea!” she answered.“I would suggest that you get a scan and blood test done. I think that would make us know the cause of your stomach pain Chantelle.” The doctor suggested.“Can you just give me a prescription instead?” Chantelle uttered politely. “It's your decision but I would strongly suggest that you do your test, I’m just worried about your pains and symptoms.” The doctor made it very clear. “Why don’t you want to go to the hospital and take some tests, auntie? I would come with you while

Chantelle walked towards the kitchen area of her eatery to check on what they had prepared for today's sale but a short blinding pain at the side of her stomach made her relinquish her balance as she stumbled on some plate causing the whole items to fall to the floor. The sound of the breaking items only seemed to worsen the pain she was feeling.Mitch quickly ran down from the stairs toward her aunt. “Auntie, why don't you go see a doctor already? Your pains seem to be getting worse!” Mitch muttered worriedly but her aunt seemed to brush everything as usual.“I’m okay!” she responded to the little girl while trying to get on her feet again.“What would happen to me if the pain doesn't stop and something bad happens to you? Grandma Flora already left and you are the only family that I have got.” Mitch said almost in tears.“Wouldn't that at least make you happy when I’m gone forever? At least everything that I have would automatically become yours finally,” Chantelle told the little

Tessa had walked into her friend's master bedroom as they talked. “You did that? Are you out of your mind? How could you let your men hit you with a bullet?” Tessa yelled out loudly in shock and confusion.“Tessa, shuuuuuuu!” Claudia said placing a hand on her lips.“What's with you, would you please just lower your voice already? Someone might hear you and all the things I have done would be in vain,” she told her friend while she glared around.“What were you thinking of when you allowed them to shoot you?” Tessa questioned more calmly this time. “Do you think if I hadn't done that? The cops and Jessica would believe that I had nothing to do with this. If Jessica finds out, she might come for me while she brings the cops along!” Claudia explained to her friend. “She wouldn't believe that I had nothing to do with her daughter's kidnapping. When the time comes when she would accuse me, making the cops believe her would be hard because my life was put in danger and I had gone there t
