BEAU’S POV.(continued)“No! You’re lying, Mother. I don’t believe you!” I could feel the heat rising in my chest, panic gripping my throat. How could she say such a thing? “I didn’t kill her! How could I kill the one I love?”Why couldn’t she see? My heart raced as I paced the room, the scent of her still lingering in my mind. “She’s alive! I see her… I feel her!” The words spilled out of my mouth in a frantic rush. “Oh! I smell her,” I said, sinking into the warmth of my memories. Every detail flooded back to me……her smooth, soft palm when I held it, the way she smelled sweet and delicious when I got close. I could almost feel her presence, like a phantom caressing my skin. How could it be that she was gone when everything felt so real?“Beau! You have to stop this!” My mother’s voice pierced through the haze, her body trembling as she reached for her phone on the coffee table. I could see her hands shaking, a reflection of her fear. “I’ll inform the doctor now. I’ll let him know yo

SHIMMA’S POV.I stretched my arms and legs, my hands brushing against a small familiar figure on my bed. I shot my eyes open, remembering what had happened last night… Elara’s nightmare.I was glad she could finally sleep again, but this was the first time it had happened. She sounded so sure she saw a shadow speaking to her. But I couldn’t tell if that was what she thought or if it was real.I found it hard to go back to sleep after hearing such things. Mattias had also gone to search her room, but there was nothing; no one could have accessed her room so easily. Not when our room was just opposite hers… we would hear footsteps if there was anyone.Mattias was still fast asleep, his chest rising and falling slowly, relief etched across his face, also because he could hardly get any sleep too.I brushed my hand softly against Elara’s hair, feeling the warmth of her small head against my palm. I leaned in, kissing her forehead gently, which made her turn to the other side, her cute bod

MATTIAS’S POV.I woke up to Elara sleeping next to me, but Shimma wasn’t in bed. Did she wake up too early, or was I the one who woke up late?I leaned closer to my baby Elara, kissing her softly, she opened her eyes slowly, looking around begore looking back at me. She must have been surprised to wake up in our room…she barely sleeps in our room. Well that was kind of my idea, because I wanted my alone time with my wife. I didn’t want any interference between me and Shimma, expecially at night. Don’t get me wrong, I love my kids with my whole heart….but Shimma? She’s my life.“Hey mama, you’re up?” I asked, rubbing her hair and she nodded, squinting her eyes slightly.“Good morning daddy,” she greeted with her soft and cute voice.“Good morning, my princess, I hope you slept well?” I asked, not wanting to remind her of her nightmare.“Mhmm mhmm, there was no shadow anymore,” she shook her head and I smiled.“Good,” I said, kissing her on the head again.“Where’s mummy?” She asked, sc

MATTIAS’S POV.We all gathered at the dining table, including Mr. Beau.If it hadn’t been for Mrs. Anna asking him to join us, I would have been tempted to punch him in the face for having the audacity to sit at my table.I focused on him, refusing to give him even a moment of peace. My gaze was fixed, making it clear that I was watching him closely, and I wouldn’t let him mess with my family.“So tell me, how long have you been teaching kids? And why didn’t you choose another profession?” Mrs. Anna asked Mr. Beau, her voice friendly and curious.Mr. Beau smiled, trying to keep things light, but I could see the tension in his shoulders stiffening. “Well, I’ve been teaching for about five years now,” he said, glancing around the table, clearly searching for interest. “I love working with kids; they keep things lively and interesting.” His eyes met Nora and Noah’s before shifting to Nayla, holding her gaze a little too long, as if trying to impress her.“Interesting, huh?” I muttered un

Mr Beau’s POV.“Mr Beau, why do you keep peaking out the door?” Noah asked, a frowned etched across his face.I turned to him, forcing a wide smile, it’s nothing…I just, I wanted to know if your father would be coming to check up on you guys so that he can see how smart and intelligent you all are,” I said, watching Noah’s frown replace with a wide smile….not just him, including Nora and Elara.I couldn’t afford to tell them that I was looking to see if I could get a glimpse of Shimma. It’s been hours since we all had breakfast together, ans since she left the table, I haven’t seen her. And now, I am finding it hard to concentrate on the kids. I just want to see her.“Mr Beau,” Nora called this time. I turned to get, forcing a wider smile.“Yes sweetie,” I said…oh! did I mention that Nora was my favorite….she looked so much like her mother, and most time when I miss Shimma, I just stare at Nora. “Uhmmm….Can you tell our daddy I got all my maths questions right? He said that if I get
