I couldn’t believe Elizabeth was back. She was my worst nightmare. The woman I never want to have anything to do with.  “Are you going to talk to her or should I?” Marcus asked. I sank back into my chair, memories came crashing back,”   Two years ago, I had just finished with my coworkers when I decided to fly back home. Actually, the plan was to spend a week, but I was lucky to sign the deal on time, so there was no point spending much time here. “Book a flight for us,” I commanded Marcus, who left immediately without further ado. All through the period I was having a meeting, I couldn’t help but think about Elizabeth, my fiancée. My grandmother had asked me to date her just because she was her best friend’s daughter. I had never loved Elizabeth, but after getting closer to her, I

I couldn't sleep all night. My mind lingered on Sophia and what she could be doing at the moment. I had slept off on that note and a call from my phone had woken me up. Looking at the phone which was still vibrating, I struggled to clear my eyes and pick up the call. “Yes,” “Alexander, can you come over to my house? I need to see you right now,” a low weak voice commanded. I took the phone off my ear to see who it was. And it was no one other than my Granny. “Granny, you should know that I have some business–” I paused upon hearing a knock on the door. “Marcus?” “Yes, boss.” He answered. Signaling him to come in, I resumed the call. “I'll come in the evening,” I replied to my grandmother before hanging up. She had literally said she was going to give what belonged to me to the orphanage. So I might as well just stick with some jobs I know I could do even if she takes away hers. “I'm sorry to disturb you, but I'm here to let you know that Elizabeth had gone to your grandmoth

I scoffed in disbelief as I watched Ariel run out of words. Her lips trembled, but nothing like words came out of them. I could see how scared she was, but I don't even give a fuck. It was clear now. The reason she cared about me so much. I get it–this is why my father was eager to let me get married. “I'm sorry,” she whispered, covering her mouth immediately after she was done talking. I scoffed in disbelief, dropping the phone to the couch before making my way towards the stairs. I was about to dash into the room when Ariel’s hand reached for mine.“Don’t fucking touch me.” I yanked my hand off hers.My father will have lots of explanations to do when he gets back. How the heck–I mean, I’ve always been the stupid one.Just like Ethan had done, going behind my back to fuck with his assistance. Leaving me to watch him like a fool while he banged his co-worker.“Keep your explanation to yourself, Ariel.” I spat angrily. I looked away from her teary eyes as I tried to walk out, but

Just as my father handed over the letter, proclaiming that the doctor had made some mistakes.I couldn’t help but hug Ariel tighter. Tears rolled down my cheeks.“I have to go for another checkup,” I responded happily.Ariel held my hand tighter before letting it go. “Do you need us to come with you?”“No,” I smiled, staring at my father and back at Ariel.I was sure they had some things to talk about. Speaking of my father, he was one to travel every time. And Ariel is a busy one who gets embedded in work.Dragging them with me will only make me look weak and a bit dependent.“I can go on my own,” I said, tapping Ariel on the shoulder.Reaching for my bag and my phone, I stepped out of the house. Waving both of them, I shut the door.All through the journey to the hospital, I couldn’t help but pray that what my father had said was true. This could be the only thing that can restore my confidence.I started regretting everything I had said to Alexander last night. Maybe I shouldn’t ha

The morning sun shone so bright, it made me squint.I was just about to stretch when I realized I wasn’t alone.“Alex?” I gasped, my voice barely above a whisper.As I tried to get out of bed, a wave of heaviness pulled me back down—my hangover finally kicking in.Memories of last night came crashing back. How I had held the bed frame tighter and allowed Alex to ride me like his horse.“Fuck!” I cursed. I didn’t plan for any of this.I wasn’t supposed to tell Alex I was ready to take his offer on this. God damnit! I can’t even face him right now.Carefully getting out of bed, I watched him shift a bit before finally sleeping off again. I reached out for my iPhone and scanned through the messages.“A hundred missed calls?! I covered my mouth as a small gasp left my lips. *Where are you, girl?**Your father is worried. Call me as soon as you get this* Ariel had dropped a series of text messages. I didn’t tell any of them I was going to the club. I never thought they were going to car
