Throughout the ride back to the Roman Empire. Travis couldn't help but ponder about what had happened a few minutes ago, the minute they got back he came down from the car before unleashing the question that had been bothering him to Manuel. "Manuel, what did we deliver back there?" He asked Manuel. "Travis, you can't tell anybody about this! Not even your wife. Our job is not actually to deliver those tools in those boxes but drugs, those cargoes with us are filled with drugs." Manuel let out. "Do you mean those were drugs?" Travis yelled in panic. "Would you shut up or keep your voice down? Not everyone in the factory knows about this man," Manuel exclaimed. "Come on Manuel. Why didn't you tell me that you were doing an illegal job here in the city? A drug syndicate for God's Sake." Travis muttered, stunned at what he had just heard. "Because I felt so sorry for you Travis, you were desperately in need of money right? You were even grateful that I brought you here and the boss g

"Thank you for helping me out in front of your father." Travis let out to Claudia the minutes they were close to the stairs in the factory. "That was nothing but Travis, what were you and Tino fighting about, and tell me why you killed him?" She asked. Travis let out a sigh before speaking."You see Madame, I found out about the drugs that were hidden in the cargo," Travis said, making Claudia stunned and at the same time confused."Drugs were hidden in a cargo?" Claudia asked. "Yes Madam, unfortunately, we don't just deliver ordinary equipment to clients but i discovered that it was drugs. I was really bothered by my conscience so I thought of running away but then Tino confronted me, he thought I was leaving to tell the police." Travis explained. "So my father is involved in the drug syndicate?" Claudia asked."Wait, you didn't know about it?" Travis asked, a bit astonished. "I was having little doubt about the money father keeps bringing to the company but never had it crossed my

Travis could not believe that he was expecting a baby from another woman. What was he going to tell his wife? He brought out his wallet before flipping it open. There was a picture positioned neatly on the transparent side. Travis stared at his family picture he had taken way back before he came to the city to work. his hands slowly rubbed the picture, what would he tell jessica?A tear slipped out of his face. He might have told Claudia that he did not have any regret towards the fact that she was pregnant with his child but that was a big fat lie, his wife Jessica was sure going to be very mad at him."Travis, the boss is looking for you." one of the workers said, Travis instantly cleaned his eyes before nodding. Travis' soul had left his body at the thought of seeing Claudia's father. had she told him already? Five Minutes had slowly slipped away.Travis has been standing outside Mr Roman's office for five good minutes. Now he was regretting not holding his hormones back that ver

SIX YEARS LATER The expensive-looking mansion of the Romans was beautifully decorated in balloons and ribbons and a huge poster was visible that read happy birthday. Kids were seen dressed elegantly as they roamed around the garden area in which the party was being held. The adults were seen clustered in another direction chatting as they watched their kids keenly. "Happy birthday Baby, daddy loves you." Travis let out."Happy birthday princess. It's time to make a wish." Claudia let out stooping low to place a kiss on her cheeks. "Thank you so much mother and father, this is a great birthday party and I truly appreciate it. My wish is that we would always be happy mother," Amira let out causing a chuckle to escape Claudia and Travis's lips. "Alright, you can now blow your candles before they burn out," Claudia said urging her daughter who closed her eyes before blowing on the candles. The minutes the candles were blown out, a clap erupted from the crowd. "Come here," Mr. Roman

The sun was glittering beneath the sky and the students in high school were seen around because it was break period for them. Rose scurred her eyes around until she finally sighted her friends. "Things would be alright, don't you worry Sia!" Rose's friend Fiona muttered while rubbing Sia's back in a calming way. "Fiona, what happened to her and why is she in tears?" Rose worriedly asked. "You don't know what happened? Uhm!" Her friend muttered rhetorically before sighing. "No! Can you tell me what happened?" Rose asked curiously. "Well, it's because of the rumor and gossip going around school Rose," Fiona muttered, still patting her friend's back softly to calm her down. "What's it about?" Rose asked."Shockingly, you had no idea. Rose, everyone in school knows including the teachers aren't left out! The rumors and gossip are that Sia's father abandoned them!" Fiona muttered as her pair of slanted eyes glared at her friend. "But why did he do that?" Rose asked further with an ope
