Father
When Mackenzie's eyes opened, a familiar pair of overt hazel eyes were staring down at her, audible sounds of remorse escaping his lips. The sight, although blurry, she could note the familiar lines of wrinkles around his eyes.With a strangled breath, she uttered, "Pops?"Although she wasn't certain if that possibility was correct, who among her in-laws had bushy gray hair and deep wrinkles on their face with a generous amount of white hair around their mustache and jawline? Not only that, this man smelt a lot like natural strawberries and grapes, something only a fruit farmer like her father would smell like.The sob of the man halted on hearing her voice, and when he stared down at her face, he broke down into another round of sobs."Mackenzie! My daughter!" The next thing she knew, he leaned in, hugging her gently, his tears dropping onto her face.Mackenzie was surprised.The voice really sounded like her father. She'd recognize that gruff voice anywhere.But…The last thing she

TWO MONTHS LATER***"What symptoms did you say you were having again, Mrs. Axford?" Doctor Paul asked.Across the table was Mackenzie who was sitting with a nervous expression on her face. Next to her was her father who had a hopeful expression, in contrast to hers. "The same as the last time doctor Paul, I felt lightheaded and weak when I didn't eat on time, and kept puking after I ate.""Have you been taking your medications on time, Mrs. Axford?""Yes," Mackenzie said with a bit of tenseness? in her voice. Her emotions were playing with her again and her mind was coming up with the worst possible scenarios that could happen to her. Ever since the surgery she had the previous month, she had a bit of anxiety about her health. "That's weird," Doctor Paul said, "We've just done an MRI scan to check your brain. There's no recurrent tumor. You're healing at a fast pace. You saw it yourself too.""Are you sure?" Mackenzie asked nervously."Yes, I'm sure." Doctor Paul said confidently.

They didn't notice him until he got inside and closed the door.Was this why his father made him abandon his work and hurry over like something serious was happening?"There you are!" Chase's father said, his face still round with laughter from what he was watching with Selene a few moments ago.Richard was dressed in a brown and black camouflage t-shirt and black belted trousers with a pair of black leather shoes. His face looked incredibly pink and brightened up, like a healthy man.His wife, Selene, on the other hand, was dressed in a hot pink dress with a pair of red Gucci slippers and she was wearing full-face makeup.Holding back an annoyed grunt, he moved further into the room and Selene got up from the sofa next to his father to hug him, to prove to his father that she and Chase were a very 'happy' couple.Chase caved into he

An interview with them was the dreams of many famous celebrities but only Chase Axford could ever turned them down. "So, Mr. Chase Axford, you've achieved quite a lot of success at a very young age of 26.

"I want to have a try first,""No! Me first!""Arggh you two are grown adults yet you act like children!""No, we don't!"Mackenzie looked in front of her with a smile while watching her two best friends fight for who should first taste the food Miss Beatrice had made to celebrate her recovery."Anyway, Mackenzie is to taste the food first. I made all of these for her.""But she can't possibly eat them all now, can she? Besides, she has recovered; you should care about us too!""Oh don't be jealous now you two. If any of you happen to fall ill, I'll make you food you can try first.""That's not cool, Miss Beatrice."A slightly tall woman with a gigantic frame stood in front of Mackenzie, handing her a plate filled with fish sticks. "Please have a taste, Mackenzie,""Thank you," Mackenzie grabbed a fish stick and took a bite. As she did, her eyes lighted up and her lips curved upwards into a smile."It's great isn't it?" Beatrice asked with a content smile."Yeah, it is," Mackenzie ans

Mackenzie was humming to herself in the kitchen while washing potatoes. The potatoes were given to her and her father by the caring neighbors as a gift.Many of the neighbors had farms so it was not rare in Noose Hage village to exchange farm harvests.As Mackenzie enjoyed the feel of the cold tap water as she poured the impurities of the potatoes into the sink, she heard panicked voices outside.Curious as to what could be causing all the ruckus, she rinsed her hands and dried them with the washcloth before opening the door and looking outside. However, what she saw next was not what she was expecting."Father!" She shouted, watching with shaky eyes as her father was being carried by two hardy men with a trail of blood gushing from his right leg behind them."Mackenzie," Maverick said with an exasperated expression."Uncle Maverick, Teddy!" She cried as she raced towards them, her eyes glued to her father's bloody foot. "What happened?""He accidentally hurt himself while plowing the

"Sorry Mackenzie, I don't have any money right now. I spent all of my savings to promote my e-tube channel,""I understand, totally, Fel""Sorry, Kenzie.""It's fine, I'll find another way… somehow."Mackenzie ended the call and sighed.She had called both of her best friends to loan her money to pay her father's hospital bills but…Charlotte barely made enough as a teacher at Noose Hage elementary school so she already spent all her money on the magazines she bought the last time.As for Felicity, she had an e-tube channel where she shared awareness with people on the importance of trees and plants. She also shared tips on how to heal injuries using specific plants. She'd spent all her savings on promoting that content.Mackenzie didn't know what to do.

Deep Longing
FOUR YEARS LATER“I hereby pronounce you, husband and wife…” The officiator announced. “…and you may kiss the bride.”Mackenzie’s father flashed a big smile at Beatrice, who returned the smile with a tender one of her own. They moved closer, and leaned in to share a kiss.Before their lips could touch, Mackenzie covered both of her twins’ eyes with her palms, like the overprotective mother that she was. Calista, her baby girl, leaned closer into Mackenzie’s dress, clutching the ring case assigned to her as the ring bearer.Unlike his sister, Cameron, the more hyper-energetic of the two, squirmed against Mackenzie’s palm, trying to see what was going on.Once the kiss was over, the guests erupted in cheers and claps, and Mackenzie removed her hands from their small faces with a fond smile. Now free, they both ran off before their sight was taken away again.She laughed, then looked back at her father, and his bride. She had never seen her father this happy.He almost looked young again

Chase strode through the doors of the house, and came to a stop when he saw his father standing in the middle of the large lobby, right before the stairs.He already knew the reason why he called him here from the office, but he still asked, “Why did you call me down here, dad?”Richard turned around immediately he heard Chase’s voice. His face was red with the uncontrollable anger he had been holding in while he waited for Chase to arrive. “Selene told me you’re filing for a divorce. What is that supposed to mean?!”Chase stared at his dad dead in the eye, and replied quietly. “It means I want to end the marriage.”“Don’t you get cheeky with me, Chase!” Richard exploded. “You are not ending your marriage with Selene! Never! Why would you want to do that? What is your problem, Chase?!”Richard's voice echoed through the walls, rising further with each word he yelled.Chase found himself growing pissed off as well. What gave his father the right to forbid him from getting a divorce?“I
