“You wouldn’t have to look around like a stranger if you would visit sometimes,” Florence said.“Isn't it ironic that you want me to visit my parents’ house?” Tracy said sarcastically.“We have been over this too many times. They owed me money and I had to pay myself. I would have let you stay if you had not been so stubborn,” Florence said. She did not bear the slightest bit of remorse.“The cremation is next week on Thursday. I will send you the details later today,” Tracy said.“I already told you that will not work. Tracy has to be buried next to your parents in the village. We do not cremate people in our culture,” Florence said. “If she has to be buried, why can’t we bury her in the public cemetery? You are compli

A couple of days had passed since Kevin had been abandoned by Rose. He had intended to sleep over at Rose’s old house but the pain in his hand became unbearable. At about midday, he ordered a taxi from an app and then it dropped him off at a nearby hospital. He was treated and his arm was bandaged. He then decided to check himself into a hotel as he thought of his next move. He chose a hotel with ground floor access because his movement was now limited. He had filled in the check in form and his debit card and handed them to the receptionist. She frowned as she tried to use his card.“I’m afraid that the card has been declined due to insufficient funds,” she said.“That’s not possible,” Kevin said. “Try again.” She tried again to no avail.“Let me pay throu

 “How are you feeling?” Gracie asked Tracy. They had been shopping for clothes for Tanasha and Tracy was too silent. Earlier that day, Gracie and two other friends had assisted Tracy to pack up Tracy’s things in readiness for the vacation of her apartment later that month. All these activities had taken an emotional toll on Tracy and she wanted nothing more than to be alone.“What do you think?” Tracy asked as she leaned against her car seat.“I know it must be hard. Stay strong. It will get better,” Gracie said. “Thanks. Let me drop you off at the car park and then I’ll head home,” Tracy said. “I don’t think you should be home alone tonight,” Gracie said as she took ou

Eddie prided himself on being one of the most level headed human beings on the face of the earth. He had gone through a relatively unstable childhood, where his mother had been present but mentally absent. When she eventually exiled herself, Eddie had landed in the hands of his aunt Catherine. Catherine had tried her best to be good to him, but Eddie could not ignore the bias that Catherine had towards her own biological children. On the other hand, his father sent him money and clothes and everything else he wanted except his company. Eddie had eventually reconnected fully with his father when he was in university because his father felt that he could benefit his political career. Eddie had happily taken up the role of his father's youth adviser because for the first time in his life, someone listened to him and respected him. Building a career on this foundation had been relatively easy for Eddie once his life took this direction. It was therefore a

Jessica had a relatively peaceful few days after her encounter with Kevin. She had gone to work without issues but she had been intentional about picking and dropping off her children herself. On Friday, Jessica attended the children’s concert and was pleasantly surprised when Richard made an appearance. He tried to keep his appearance low key but in the end, the school recognized him and publicly acknowledged his presence. Jessica felt very touched by this gesture and she felt herself falling in love with the governor even more. Once the concert was over, Ryan came to Jessica and hugged her. He looked sad and Jessica knew it had something to do with his father.“Mummy, why did dad go away without saying goodbye?” Ryan asked. Jessica had told him that Kevin had a work emergency and he had to go back overseas. Ryan had been sad but he had moved on from this without a fuss. However, it was
