“Baby you don't have to talk about it now.” Stefano consoled me, patting my back.I nodded, pulling away from him. I was not still used to him seeing me cry. It felt like a sign of weakness on my oatt and I wasn't comfortable with the idea of people seeing me as weak.“You don't have to hide your pain away from me.” His voice cut through my thoughts as he pulled his handd back to laps, rubbing them offering both pleasure and comfort.“I'm trying not to hide. I'm trying.” I replied, my voice low.“I know how hard it is for you.” He replied. “But understand that I'm here for you and I want to continue being here for you baby. You deserve this and more.” He expressed his emotions calmly and at the same time the words held so much emotions.I yawned then sniffed. I tried sitting upright and he moved closer to assist me. Now we were just a few inches apart, I couldn't bare looking at him up close so I averted my gaze.“You're hiding again.” I could already predict his next words. Don't hi

Shock washed over Stefano. It was evident with the way his mouth gaped open at my statement.“Surprised right?” I asked and he nodded.“I never would have guess that.” He shook his head. “Maybe this was the reason you were naturally drawn to him, I mean he's your blood.”“I don't know how to feel about it. He can't even remember me. He doesn't remember anything, then how do I tell him I am his sister?” Tears misted my eyes. I haven't been so confused in a long time.I felt like I was surrounded by a maze of trees in a thick forest with no idea of the next direction to go.I wouldn't let Stefano decided for him. I had to solve all of this by myself.He stared at me, “Listen this isn't any of your fault. I mean blame your parents. They should have told you guy earlier on and to be honest I don't think it would be nice to tell him now. He's not even going to understand what you're talking about. Just keep the information to yourself till he starts getting back his memory.” Stefano advi

“It was the doctor calling.” stefano informed me the moment I opened my eyes. I met him tuckening into his trousers as though he was in a hurry.“What's the problem?” I asked, scratching my eyes and yawning.“I don't know. I didn't bother to ask him since he just said he wanted me at the hospital.” He explained as he wore his trousers.“How about I come with you?” I suggested. Right from the second I heard him say the doctor had requested to see him at the hospital, I had become worried. i knew i wouldn't be able to keep still while he'd be away. I would call life out of him. So i needed to be there with him“Sure I could have woken you up but I thought you needed the rest after how hard I made you scream.” He teased, a coy smile plastered on his Face.“Come off it bruh.” I waved a dissimive flick of my wrist as I made my way to stand up.I discovered I was naked.My hands flew to my palm. “What the hell?”He raised his eye brows in a questionable tone. “What's wrong?”“I'm naked.” I

"Doesn't seem like it."The words Tomasso had uttered earlier on made my heart skip a beat. I sucked in a deep breath, trying to hold my tears together.I couldn't afford to cry in front of these people.I stared at Stefano, and he squeezed my hands. "Try to keep it together." He whispered; he must have noticed the tears brimming in my eyes.I nodded.Marco visibly exhaled and then reached out for Tomasso's hands. "You think I'll lie to you?" He asked with a harmless smile. "They're your family, and they care about you very much. Think about it; they wouldn't have come again after you blatantly denied them."Tomaso seemed to consider Marco's words for a second. I held my heart in my hand, hoping that his response would be positive at least. Something we could work with."You're right." He shrugged, looking away."Or would you rather be somewhere else?" Marco asked arching his brows at him."Damn it!" Tomasso punctuated his sentence by slamming his fist on the bed. "Where would you wan

The moment we stepped into the house, Tomasso stood still. We noticed this because we were all seated while he was the only one standing."You should seat." Marco suggested, patting the space next to him.Tomasso shook his head. "Nah I'm alright." He continued to scan around the environment.I cleared my throat. "You can also do that while sitting." I said, my voice low."Not wrong, but I choose to stand." This version of Tomasso was rude but we'd have to cope and not take any offence."Okay would you like to get anything to eat?" I asked.He waved a dismissive flick of his wrist. "Nahhhhh." He dragged the words."I want to have a word with you." Stefano requested and we stood up."Excuse me." I said."Take the room at the left wing." Stefano insructed Marco and he nodded."if this used to be my house then why is he telling you where to sleep?" Tomasso asked."I think I need to ease myself." Marco said dismissing himself. He was tired as hell, having trapped with a bunch of question

Stefano“Guess who I just saw?” I asked Bella other the phone.“I don't know.” She drawled.“Just think think.” I urged her.“I wouldn't know even if I tried harder, how about you just speak huh?”She was right. There was no way on earth she would have been able to guess Rosa's return..“I just saw Rosa.” I informed her, my mind still reeling from the shock.“Nah nah.” I imagined her shaking her head in disbelief. “You just saw her? Where? What was she doing?” All of these numerous questions were asked and I didn't even know which to answer first.My mind wasn't at peace… for some reasons, I knew Rosa had an agenda for coming back. I just hoped I was out of it and she wasn't thinking of hurting me or my family.“I saw her at the bar. I went to drink and she Sauntered to my direction saying she was.” I explained.Bella was short of words. She hesitated and that gave it away. “I can't believe it.”“I can't believe this either… if no one had told me she was the one I'd have probably miss

The next morning, Stefano stirrred softly in his sleep as I watched the rise and fall of his chest.I got out of the bed with one intention in mind. i wanted to make him breakfast in mind. He has been going through hetic days and I suspected that he needed moments like this. Something that would make the corners of his lips curl with a smile.Heading towards the kitchen, I met Maria thre. I rubbed my eyes, suprised. I wasn't expecting to see her, she had been taking frequent breaks because she wanted to remarry. Stefano cared so much her and would always give her the breaks each time she requested for one.“Hey Bella.” She greeted, eyes glancing up.“Hey…” I hesistated. “Did you tell him you'd be coming today?”“No.” She shook head. “I wanted to suprise him.”“Hmm okay.” I replied. “I'll just assist you then, I'm trying to give him breakfast in mind. I hope he doesn't stand up from the bed soon.”“I promise you, he won't just yet.” she responsed and I laughed, holding the words with f

The next morning Tomasso insisted on sitting on the parlour with me while stefano had gone to the office. We didn't say anything, just glancing at each other from time to time.I texted Stefano to inform him of what was happening.S: Maybe you could engage him in a conversation, who knows if he might begin to remember somethings…I think he was right. One of the mistakes we were making was avoiding certain questions he was asking.Me: I'll try, I miss going to work.Stefano replied immediately.Do you wanna go back? We could employ someone to baybsit him.Then how is he going to recall faster?It could still happen. He just needs his drugs and need to be in contact with his environment that way he'll continue to have flashbacks.Thank you captain obvious. I teased.“So y'all said you are my guardians.” Tomasso asked and I paused midway the sentence I was typing on my phone.I raised my head slowly. “Yes you've been living with us.”“For how long?” He asked.I told him the accurate dat

A flicker of suprise crossed his eyes. “What now huh?”I sucked in a deep breath. I was about to launch into a full fledged rant and my look like a fucking lunatic… but I didn't care at this point.“Tomasso, look into me and tell me you don't remember a fucking thing.”He cackled. When he recovered from the laughter, he let go of my hold. “Hell naw I didn't even remember my name. Marco show me a few videos so I believe we're friends.”“You remember nothing from those video?” I probed, a part of me believed he was choosing to suppress his memories that's why the drugs are not being as effective as we want them.He hesistated. “No. And stop being pushy. This whole theatrics is old already.” He said with an irritated look on his face and started walking towards towards him room.“Whatever you call it.” I muttered and pinched my wrist. How long were we going to continue with this. I was growing impatient by the day. He had to remember. He needed to know we see siblings, he had to tell us

I held my breath the moment I picked up the call.I had no idea of what he wanted to say to me and that made me extremely mad.“Hey dad.” I started.“Hi Bella.” His deep voice came through. “How are you doing?”Not again. Could he just go straight to the point and tell me why he was calling?“Eveything is fine I guess.” I replied.“Are you sure?” He asked.“Hmm why?” I asked him, suprised.“You said I guess. It seems like you're not fine to me but okay I'll let it slide.” He observed.“Well thank you but I'm okay.” I added, not ready for any sort of long conversation with him.I needed to get back to bed. The reason I left the bed while having this conversation was because I was sure that Stefano wouldn't like the idea of me talking to my father. He had the mindset that anytime I spoke to him, I ended being sad. He wasn't actually far from the truth if we're being real.“So I called because of something.” Thank the heavens, he was finally saying why he called me.“I called because I w
