Jeff drove back to his apartment and joined his company of friends. There were bottles of empty alcoholic wine scattered on the large center table. They hailed Jeff as he made his way in and welcomed him with a glass of whiskey."Guy, you have to be fast with that chick before she catches on," One of his friends said and jabbed him by the side."She is going back and forth, I am getting upset but l have to maintain my cool else I get bursted… One major constraint is my father. My plan was to eat her deep while I continue to make empty promises about marriage but father has his own plans, he wants me to marry her off so as to form an alliance with her family. I can't be tied down with marriage," Jeff responded."You can also use marriage to your advantage. After getting the best out of her, you go ahead and file for a divorce.. Isn't it as simple?" One of his friends said and others nodded in affirmation."Divorce isn't as easy as that nowadays. Moreover, it will be too painful for he

Jane's driver halted right behind Mrs Jack's car. It was almost an hour drive. They were at a psychiatric hospital deep in the suburbs. Jane wondered why they put Sandra away from civilization but when she looked around she was fascinated. They were surrounded by greenery. Shrubs and trees were dispersed here and there. Bright and colourful flower lawns decorated the entrance. The ambience bespoke tranquility, it gave a vibe that brings peace and healing to the mind. "Does your daughter have a fiance?"Jane asked Mrs Jack as they made their way in."Yes," the older woman responded. "Can we invite him?" Jane requested. "Not at all, he is the last person she wants to see. She can't even stand the sight of men for now," Mrs Jack replied. "Oh!" Jane responded thoughtfully."Good day, ma'am," the receptionist greeted Mrs Jack. She put a call through to the doctor and beckoned Mrs Jack to go in. Jane waited in the reception."I don't think this is right, her condition is critical, open

Alex was seated in the wheelchair. He stared into space and was obviously disturbed.The door flung open unexpectedly. He turned around and beheld Lisa walking in."Lisa?...." He called out surprisingly. "It seems I have become a nuisance and you are tired of seeing me!" Lisa blurted out."You know that is not true... I am just happy that you are back... I did not expect that you would return so soon. I know you are..." Alex said but Lisa cut in. "Nah... Rather than being angry, I am tired, perplexed and confused. I am unsure if I made the right decision to stay back," Lisa mumbled. "I am sorry about it all. I know my infidelity cost me your trust. My words hold no value to you.. but Lisa, you have to believe me this time. I am not responsible for Marie's pregnancy," Alex said."Prove it! I need proof! At this point, you don't expect me to believe that gibberish. I need proof!" Lisa yelled."Why not? My words are genuine. Marie is a slut and an impostor. I am not responsible for he

Benny was late. He had just made his way hurriedly into the company when Julie Bratton; Alex's secretary rushed in right after him. "You need to see this!" She yelled after him. "Don't be dramatic! Deal with whatever it is. I have enough on my table already!" Benny fired and marched towards his office.Julie walked after him and threw a tablet in his face. Benny scanned through the headline on the page displayed on the tablet. His steps receded and he gradually came to a halt. "What the heck!" He muttered and grabbed the tablet out of Julie's hold.He could not believe what he just read. Lense Clinic; one of Evans' contemporaries had succeeded in designing one of the most unique and dynamic machines originally made by Evans. The news filled the internet. Writers and bloggers did not help matters, they framed different headings for the news; 'LENSE CLINIC; THE CODE BREAKER.' 'THE UNPRECEDENTED BREAKTHROUGH.' 'EVANS MECHANICS IS BROKEN AT LAST.'The subject attracted different headin

Luke marched into Dec in time. He was led into the conference room by one of the company's representatives.The panel was already set. It included the director, the chief engineer and three others."Where is Marie Tanner?" The Director of Dec; Director Shell asked and looked behind Luke expectantly. "She won't be here... I am not sure it is supposed to affect our deal. Is it?" Luke asked."Not really, in as much as the merchandise is intact," director Shell said with a lopsided grin and showed Luke to a seat. "We saw the news, Lense Clinic launched the machine two days ago. With such development, it seems wise that we go for another one of Evans' data. If more of Evans products get reproduced, it would break the company and we could break even but that isn't our goal. As much as we all want to rattle Evans Mechanics, we appraise technological know how and development here in Dec. We have purchased a piece of the machine for a sample. When our engineers broke it down the design was a
