1. SORRY WHAT?

7 YEARS AGOThe door to the beautiful glass walled mansion swung open to reveal sweaty and exhausted Ariana as she held a bundle of groceries in her hand with her entire body soaked with sweat due to the stress she had to go through to carry all the heavy luggage from the car in the garage right into the apartment. She dropped them at the foot of the door and panted while she wiped a few strands of her sweaty red hair away from her face placing it behind her ears. "Well this was exhausting." She said and looked towards the direction of the kitchen. "Joan!" She called after she had cleared her throat to take away the excessive stress they had gone through. Joan made her way out of the kitchen and looked at the entrance. "Oh. Mrs Ariana. You came back early." She said and walked up to her. "And you look so sweaty. You see? You should have really taken my advice when I told you to allow me assist you with this." Ariana rolled her eyes. "Forget about it. That is not the issue right now

2. SOME SORT OF JOKE

PRESENT DAYAriana sat in the dressing room backstage before her position, staring at the mirror and she admired her wavy red hair cascading down her shoulders and her glittering blue eyes sparkling with the golden lights emulating the entire environment. She chuckled as she adjusted the head mic on her head. "You did it, Ariana." She muttered softly to herself as she cracked her knuckles adjusting and sprucing up her dress a little bit. "The moment has come. It's time to disappoint those who never thought you could make it without their stupid help. " She said softly to herself as she clenched her fists with the thought of what happened five years ago ringing back in her memory. No matter how much she had tried to push it aside, it was just so hard. The pain and heartbreak she felt still held a large portion of her heart no matter how she tried to get rid of it. It was an experience she would never forget and had imprinted a big hole that could never be filled up in her heart. She b

3. GET HIM OUT OF MY SIGHT

The attitude Ariana was portraying right now was digging and piercing deep holes into Vincent's skull. He stood in his position as he glared at both Clara and Ariana with a sort of rage building up in his memory. What the hell is her problem? How dare she? What is she feeling like? All because I humbled myself and tried to look for her to get back to her? Now she's acting like she doesn't know me? He thought and tried everything he could to calm down. Cool off, Vincent. Calm down. You are trying to win her heart back. This is not the time to be so stupid. He thought to himself as he tried everything he could to suppress his fury. "I'm sorry about the way I lashed at you right now. I am so sorry Ariana okay. But this is just crazy. Why the hell would you say that? Of course, you know me and I know you. You are my ex-wife okay. " He said and Ariana looked at him with a raised eyebrow. She slowly turned her head to look at Clara. Clara also looked at her and the looks on their faces were

4. BAD FEELINGS

Vincent looked like he was about to explode. The entire world around him felt like it was spinning without control. He found himself shivering. Not shivering with worry or sorrow. But shivering with fury. This is unacceptable. He thought to himself. Who the hell did she think she was? Just because she scored some little...... he clenched his fists as he remained in his position trying as much as he could to contain his fury but it was not just working. "Ariana. " He said softly trying to be as calm as he could because he was gradually losing it. "I need this to stop. Immediately. I need you to stop with immediate effect." She glared back at him. "And I need you to quit acting so stupid because you have no right to control me. What do I look like to you?" She retorted back at him sharply and he looked at her as he finally lost his temper. "That's it. I can't take this anymore. This stupidity must end." He said as he suddenly moved forward and took hold of Ariana's shoulder shaking

5. SOME MEN BE CRAZY

Rose found herself staring at the empty seats in the broadcasting room which were supposed to be occupied by her and Ariana for the interview as she relaxed against the wall with her arms folded tapping her foot against the ground. Vincent walked closer to her and stared with a worried expression on his face. He sighed deeply and rubbed his temple. " I am so sorry Rose that things had to turn out this way. I am sorry. I didn't know this was what was going to happen. I didn't expect that she would be so stupid enough to act the way she just did. ""Well, you shouldn't have been ridiculous enough to break her heart years ago like you did. Honestly, I am not surprised she's acting like this right now. Any woman in the same condition as she is will do the same or even worse. I do not blame her. " Rose replied sharply and Vincent took a deep breath. He was done being angry and his younger sister was the last person he wanted to be furious with. "I am just sorry okay. ""This is what I get

6. DOESN'T HAVE A CLUE

After a long while of driving and swerving through the long express, Clara finally drove into LUXE HAVEN ESTATES, the second largest estate in the city that held the homes and apartments of various millionaires and celebrities. This is currently where Ariana lives and also where her child's educational center is located. They stopped right on time in front of the portico to the large school building just as the bell rang for the closure of the day and Clara grinned. "Right on time sis," she said and Ariana smirked. "I'm glad your high-end speeding skills helped us this time. " Ariana said sarcastically Clara chuckled. "Let's just get out of here and get that pretty boy of yours. " She said before taking off her seat belt and opening the door to the driver seat. Ariana followed suit and also stepped down from the car. The both of them briskly walked into the building and stopped by the receptionist's table where various parents from different high classes and statuses were seated and

7. STUBBORN YOUNG LADY

Clara immediately sprinted out of the nursery brushing swiftly past the handsome tall fellow who kept watching Ariana's departing figure with disappointment on his face. She bumped into him slightly in the process and briskly apologized to him before sprinting after Ariana. Clara caught up with her and Liam the moment they were a few meters closer to the car. Ariana turned to her immediately she caught up with them. "What took you so long? I was beginning to think you were trying to spend your night in the nursery." She said and Clara scoffed a little bit. "Yeah right yeah right. I was standing back and observing your silliness." She said and that sentence made Ariana flinch a little bit before she slowly turned to look at Clara with wonder on her face. "Jeez. That was a little harsh. What are you talking about?" She asked and Clara looked at her for a little while before signaling towards Liam. "Oh. " Ariana said and immediately let Liam into the car. Liam got in immediately and sh

8. PASS ME BY THIS ONCE

Vincent frustratedly returned home with his hair looking ruffled and his clothes sagged. He walked into his apartment and shut the door a little bit loudly as he held his suit in his hands with his tie loose and hung around his shoulder. He stood for a short while and looked around the empty sitting room before shaking his head and stumbling towards one of the seats. He stopped by the largest sofa and dropped his suit against it scanning the house. The first person he was expecting to welcome him hadn't approached him yet and it made him wonder what was going on. He dropped his suitcase next to the sofa and then decided to walk towards the kitchen when a particular sight from the dining room caught his attention. He paused and reversed back the way he came before peeking through the door to notice Fiona sitting by the dinner table enjoying a meal of roasted chicken and salad. He stared at her for a short while with his lips slightly apart and then shut his eyes before taking a deep b

9. DO NOT NEED HIS HELP

THE NEXT MORNING. The continuous, persistent ringing and disturbance of her phone by the bedside table greatly interrupted her sleep forcing her to groan continuously as she tried to use the pillow to block her ears but it was all to no avail. When she couldn't take it anymore, she immediately sat up and noticed the darkness around the bedroom. 'This is so early in the morning. who the hell could be called by this time? ' she thought and turned to her phone ringing and vibrating against the bedside table. She made sure Liam was gently arranged in bed without causing any sort of distraction to him before placing her feet on the floor as she sat on the bed. She picked up her phone staring at the name on the caller ID and she rolled her eyes. 'Of course.' She thought. ' who else would it be? She has no sense of pity when it comes to observing one's morning sleep. ' She thought to herself as she immediately picked up the call before yawning softly." Well hello there sister. " Clara beg

10. HOW THIS TURNS OUT

It didn't take time for Ariana to get Liam to school at the appointed time he was supposed to be there. The attendant in charge of him was waiting for him right at the receptionist's office. She smiled the moment she saw both of them and got up from her position. "Welcome to a new day at school Liam. How was your night? " She asked politely as Ariana beamed looking down at her son and Liam grinned. "It was great."" Excited for another day of learning?" She inquired and Liam's head moved up and down in response. Ariana smiled and brushed her hands through his hair lovingly. "Make sure you take care of yourself, little man." She said that squatted toward his height and adjusted his uniform softly. He grinned and lifted his index finger." I just have one more request from you, Mom." He said and she raised an eyebrow with wonder. "Spill. What could it be?" She asked and he requested for her to bring her ears closer to him. She did and he shockingly planted a soft childish kiss agains
