211 Angel Linda Mary

This is the day finally I get to get home. I can take my little angel with me. There is nothing that will stop me. I was over the moon. My joy was uncontainable. I knew everyone is going to be jealous of me for being extremely happy. For the first time, my happiness has nothing to do with a name called Dane Wellington. Though he has a small part in my happiness. He had given me though unknowingly something that I will cherish for the rest of my life.I held the baby once again she was sleeping eyes closed. How could someone fill your life with so much love yet be blissfully unaware of it? I knew my daughter has no idea how much light she had given me in my darkest of times. Dane once called me his light I call her my light. She helped me from becoming insane from grief and hopelessness."You have to put her down at some point", said Charlie with a smirk."I will when I get home", I shot back at her."Careful she is like mama bear", said Jasmine."You don't have to be like that with us

212 Three years later

Three years have passed and I think there wasn't any excuse for me to continue sitting at home. I knew Jeff was keeping the position open for me for a long time. He is tired of hiring contractors while securing my place. I also have kind of drained up my savings on looking after Namaste, my baby. My friends being so kind would rarely let me pay for something but still, I shouldn't continue to take advantage of their kindness for too long. I should get a job and pay my rent. That is the least I could do.Being away from my daughter was the most painful part of joining the work. I realised that I had missed several new updates and Accounting software that only vigorous training could cover up. Thanks to Jeff and his unending kindness he had helped me to regain my footing in the corporate world.I gave a gentle kiss to the sleeping baby and the list of instructions to my babysitter. We rarely need a babysitter because there would always be someone readily available for looking after our

214 Favour

"Why are you wearing something good after a very long time?", commented Charlie who was back from work. She is now working harder than ever. Her girlfriend is on the verge of quitting the job. I think she is ready for a family. Her days of rebellion are over. She wants to settle down. I think Charlie is up to it. She already looks after Angel a lot."Angel finish the food", I ordered. She had a habit of leaving the food in the middle of eating.She looked at me with Defiance. It reminded me of Dane's stormy eyes while I did anything to displease him. She had a temper just like her father. But she is very silent and rarely talks. She calls me Mama that is it. I'm thirsty to hear her voice as it is. But she is adamant and very willful."Stop giving your mom that looks. You are reminding me of somebody", said Charlie with a grin.So she thought of it as well. We rarely mention Dane's name now. He is a forbidden topic in this household. I think everyone is trying to accommodate me by not

"I thought you said this was a small media company?", I asked him."It is small compared to BBC I guess", he said flippantly."You lied to me", I said to him."I didn't", he said trying to look innocent."Admit it. You said this was a local channel", I said not letting it go. Maybe I was at that time of the month."I consider it as an insult", said an executive who was an Arab woman but her language was very posh."I'm sorry I was brought here under pretences", I told her honestly."Why so?", she asked me."Because she hates any media and I want her to be here", said Jeff.He used to be very shy but now he was changed. He was doing business and talking to strangers is what he does for his job. His real estate business is expanding and Charlie used to work for him. But now she changed the job because she didn't want to work under a bossy man. She is now aiming to start her own business. I was amazed at her confidence and his. I still haven't found my route in this complex world."I'm s

The editing ran for a long time. I had to sit past Angel's bedtime and also mine. She was already asleep on my shoulder. I didn't know where Jeff was. I don't care. He might be outside or he might have gone back. I had watched the complete episode to be aired. Every shot that showed my daughter's face was deleted. I even asked them to cut my face. I hated to see my face on television at this point. I want no one to connect me and Jeff. I and Angel were invisible during our stay in Saudi Arabia. I want to continue that for the rest of my life."Are you satisfied?", asked the editor with a smile he was an Indian. I smiled at him. Normally no one sits for the editing after the interview. But now they had to cater to my whims ruining the perfect shots. But they helped me a lot. I would be forever grateful to them.They had arranged the transport for me to my hotel. I sighed when I felt my daughter move. My shoulder and arms were killing me. I cursed at the idea of ever coming with Jeff. I

"I don't understand. How did she go viral? ", I asked Charlie."Nowadays anyone can go viral. Your kid is cute so there's that. But the video is uncontainable once it leaves Saudi Arabia there is no stopping it. You know what will happen", she cautioned me. I don't need her reminder. I knew what is going to happen. Dane is going to find out about Angel. He is going to murder me. But killing me is the last thing I was afraid of. He is going to take my kid away said my inner voice. I could tell him that I ran because of Enzo. He is alive and warned me against continuing my relationship with him. He spared Dane because he was his son. But I think he wants Dane alive so he could negotiate with me. I was frightened for the life of my husband and child. But I knew no one is going to believe me. Everyone has seen Enzo dead. It was his brother. But no one knows this truth. Save me and Heidi but I doubt she will confess the truth. Now that Dane is completely hers she would never say anything t

"Did you arrange for the lawyer?", asked Charlie on the phone. She said she wasn't afraid of Dane but she knew in her heart that Dane is going to come for her and she wasn't a fool to not be prepared."I will call", I said."You better do it right away. Also, don't call that idiot Jeff. It is because of him we are in this soup", said Charlie.I initially blamed Jeff for everything, but now that the truth is out I feel a little better. It was like sitting in a hot oven. I knew that I will sleep better now Dane knows about our daughter.I called up the lawyer and he said that he will do everything in his power as long as I stay here in Saudi Arabia if I leave the country then he can't help me. He assured me no matter what happens I shouldn't leave for America. I had no plans for going back. But I was so sure that I will be back in America soon. I knew that in my heart. Dane is going to take her back. I won't stay in some place where Angel is not. I would die without her and it won't be

He gave a look to Jeff that said get out of here. He left me then and there without any adieu. I sighed here it was the moment I dreaded most in my life and dreams. He stood there with eyes that resembled the iciness of glaciers. Only his gaze softened when he caught an occasional glimpse of Angel."Hello, Dane. It is good to see you", I said honestly. I never thought I would be seeing him this soon. I always thought of meeting him through my daughter who would have been a teen at least. But God works with his plans often toppling ours in the process."Is it? I can't believe it", he said."Angel can you wear your headphones for some time?", I asked her. I didn't want her to listen to our conversation even though she couldn't understand half of what we said. She obeyed me without a question and I took a sigh of relief that she didn't question my authority in the presence of her father. " I didn't expect to see you here. I was called by Jeff. He didn't tell me that I was supposed to me

220 Hatred

The drive to the daycare had calmed him down. My baby was now very happy that he has a new man in her life. I had no idea how she felt about Dane. But she had immediately climbed on him when he met her. That wasn't a normal behavior with my child she is very shy. I knew I should introduce her but for now. He can be an uncle. I don't know whether Dane is going to agree with my decision. I have to try and talk to him about this. She shouldn't be shocked into accepting someone who hadn't been in her life for three years. I don't know how much she knew about the father dayg dynamics happening around her. But she is wise enough to know that she doesn't have one.After dropping her he took me to a cafe. I wanted to ask him so many things. But I didn't know where to start. I know he was very angry with me. I wanted to know how easily he moved on with my sister. Why was it so easy it him? Was I so replaceable? I was very happy for him and in my heart I always wanted what was best for him. I k
