Chapter 1
Sasha's POV "Here are the divorce papers, I've signed them. I'm grateful that my marriage with you has finally come to an end," I flung the papers at Harvey as he emptied the bottle of whiskey he was holding into his mouth. "I never wish to ever have anything to do with you again."Tears pooled up in my eyes and began to find their way down my cheeks.I loved Harvey. I loved him with everything I had and this… this… this was how he paid me…I wonder how that mouth was once the sweetest thing I've ever tasted. I've done everything humanly possible to revive the spark between us. But, I've had enough. Today was the day I was going to leave Harvey. I've endured for too long, I cannot endure anymore. He killed the very hope that was holding us together. O! My poor Daniel. Harvey killed him. "Where do you think you'll go? You don't have anywhere to go, remember? I'm all you've got in your fucking miserable life," He paused and dropped the whiskey. "O- I've always known you were a prost

Chapter 2
Sasha stretched her body on the bed as she woke up to the glint of light that had taken over the room. It was a new day. Last night, she had prayed to not be part of today; she had prayed for death. But then, "Does God even answer her prayers?" She was about to begin her pool of questions when she admitted to herself that it was too early for that. Sasha knew she had sinned in the past but did God not say to ask forgiveness and forgiveness shall be given? Why then was her case different?She smuggled out of the bed and walked barefoot into the bathroom. She brushed and washed her face. "Good morning world. It's another day to throw your worst at me," she mused.To be sincere, nothing would make her happy. If there was anything then it was to hear that Harvey had been crushed by a train. No, she doesn't want him to die, death would only be an easy escape route for him. She wants him to be in a situation in which he'd have to wish for death but he would not get it. She continued to imag

"I feel filthy, Lord. Cleanse my soul"Sasha and Mathew walked down the road that led to the south of the hotel. They were headed to a local bakery Mathew had suggested they checked out. He was so sure of the idea that Sasha had begun to think he knew who owned the bakery."There's a local bakery in the southern street from here. Let's go there. You'll bake the cake there. This was what he had said. Sasha was surprised at the certainty of the statement she went on to ask if he had been there for something like this before. She laughed when he answered in disagreement."The good Lord will sort everything for us. Have faith my dear." He had assured her that the Lord works in miraculous ways.Sasha wished she had his faith. To be content with everything. To believe in God. To stride into dark caves certain God will provide a light and pave a way for her. She lacked faith and she knew it. Perhaps, God had been testing her to see if she'll run back to him. She remembered some lines from Go

"You're married?" Mathew asked, his concern evident in his voice.Sasha took a deep breath and looked up at him, ignoring his question. "My baby...my baby died," she whispered, tears welling up in her eyes again.Mathew's heart sank. There was nothing he could say to take away Sasha's pain, but he tried his best to console her. " So sorry. That must be so hard for you. It's really a great loss for a parent to have to witness the death of their child. I share in your pains. May God console you and bless the young soul in his grave.""Sasha shook her head. ".t's just so unfair, you know? My baby was so young and innocent. Why did he have to die. None of it was his fault. He… he… he?" She stammered, her voice was breaking.Mathew looked at her with pity and understanding. "I know it's hard for you. But sometimes things happen for a reason. Maybe your baby's purpose was to bring love and joy into your life, even if it was just for a short time. And maybe now, your baby is in a better plac

Sasha yawned and stretched her body on the bed. She rubbed her eyes with her hands and wished the day had not yet broken. This was the first time she was going to have a very peaceful sleep in a very long time. Long before she had even given birth to Daniel, she had not woken up and wished the night was longer. She had for some reasons, but not because she enjoyed the night.She got out of the bed and sleepily walked to the bathroom, she brushed her teeth, washed her hair and added some facial cream to her face. If she was going to be at the wedding tonight she sure would not be the only one looking unkempt despite that she was nowhere close to anyone in the long list of invitees in terms of wealth, fame and fortune. When she was done, she looked at the mirror, satisfied with the reflection of herself in the mirror, a smile quivered her mouth.She had already mapped out her plans for the day. Food. Nap. Bathe. Wedding.She picked up her phone to send Mathew a message. To remind him he

Chapter 6
Sasha stepped out of Mathew's car in her red Bardot shoulder-to-floor gown. The dry cleaner really gave life to the dress. She walked up through the grand entrance after showing her invitation card to the big-bodied security men at the entrance of the luxurious wedding venue. She had instantly felt her stomach run cold with nervousness, she was not used to large gatherings of this sort not to talk about a gathering of high-class citizens.As she forced herself through the stairs, her mind had suggested she turned around and leave, this would save her from unnecessary embarrassment. However, she pressed forward with the stairs until she was in the hall. Her eyes widened in awe as she took in the sight before her. The foyer was adorned with opulent chandeliers, extravagant floral arrangements, and a sweeping staircase that led to the upper levels. The air was filled with excitement and anticipation.The sound of laughter and animated conversations echoed throughout the foyer, drawing S

"However, in my opinion I do not find it necessary. It seems to me like nothing but a waste of resources when these resources could have been put to other more important use," she poured out her mind to him. Almost immediately she had said this, she wished she could withdraw her words or even, prayed that he had not heard her. That wasn't the case, the man sitting before her had his full undivided attention on her, he was paying attention to everything she had uttered. When she raised her head up, he was staring at her, his eyes moved around on her body and were traveling down her chest. She fixed her gaze on him so that he found it impossible to ket his eyes see anymore of her body than he had already feed himself with.His piercing eyes had made her feel like she wore less than she had. Perhaps a bikini or a lingerie. Sasha cleared her throat and he regained himself with a laugher that seemed more private and formal. "Exactly, my point. Out in the world somewhere right now, someone

Turning to face him, "like everyone else I suppose," she lied. It wouldn't take much paying attention to observe that she had little interest in the performance taking place.Deep down, she was not really enjoying the ceremony like everyone else. A look around the hall could tell that everyone else was happy but she wasn't, she had been praying and restlessly expecting him to return. Find her and keep her company. She berated herself for that but there was really nothing she could do to take her attention away from thinking about their conversation before it was interrupted. Perhaps she enjoyed his company because he was Padens Robert. She perceived, however, that it was only a coincidence to have crossed parts with him, that it was better not to get too excited by the thoughts in her head that she'd be hurt in return."I can tell you're not having the same night they're having. Quite the opposite of them if I must say, bored and uninterested." He had seen through her pretentious smi

Chapter 9
Sasha's POVAfter I arrived at my room from the cafeteria, I quickly had a shower. I didn't want to be late for the ceremony. Fully aware that I was specifically invited to be introduced to the bride's guests as the caterer who had baked the wedding cake.Was it really necessary? I had already been paid for the job, handsomely. As long as the pay was good I honestly saw no reason why someone would not do their job to the best they can.Standing before the mirror in my pink shoulder-to-floor Bardot dress, I smiled at the beauty that stared back at me. Being the last gift I had received from my father on my twenty-second birthday, I cherished it a lot, and that perhaps was one of the reasons why I rarely wore it. This was the second time since I had received it.It wasn't like I'd ever had to wear it, even if I did Harvey would never let me wear it. "Wouldn't he have taken it and sold it if he had known I had a dress of its worth?" I muttered to myself. I knew Harvey more than anyone el

Chapter 10
Sasha's POVI looked at him, he was feeding his eyes with my body and it made me feel like I wore nothing more than a nightie. I nodded frantically to him. He smiled. There was something about Padens, Mr. Padens that lit a fire inside me; it was the way his green eyes effortlessly complemented every smile that left his face and when he winked… God! He had to stop.Later on, he introduced himself to me like I did not already know who he was. He had not done it to impress me with the glory that accompanied his name. He did that because he probably had run out of what to say to keep the conversation going on. We were still talking when a man approached and was grateful he had honored the invitation. They both excused me and I finally thought I was going to find peace but no, I didn't. I could not get myself to stop anticipating Padens Robert's return. I had tried to keep myself occupied with the performances of the singers and dancers on the stage, unfortunately, it was hip-hop.I force
