Unknown POVToday I decided to visit my aunt after procrastinating for a while. My cousin Andre - her son was coming back home today from Spain and I wanted to go with her to welcome him at the airport.“Francois” my aunt called me by my middle name, just like Mama would before throwing her hands round my neck “How are you dear?” she asked between the hug.She had always looked so much like my mama. I tried to push it away. It didn't matter whether they had identical faces, they were not the same people. That was it.Nothing more nothing less.After he killed Mama, I stayed with Aunt Marie for most years before I left the country and when I returned, It was with my big revenge plan, I got so occupied with it that I barely saw her.“I am doing alright, Aunt Marie, how are you?” I hugged her back with one arm“I haven't changed in years and still haven't changed since the past weeks you saw me,” she chuckled, pulling away from the embrace. “You didn't want to come to see me, '' she sa

Melissa“You can't be here ma'am” Grace's voice was low as she whispered to me , though her eyes were soft when I glanced at them but she kept looking around as if she didn't want to get caught talking to me, which would be a complete and utter lie because we were friends right? “You haven't been responding to my messages or answering my calls ” I looked at the clock in the reception area of the waiting room.“She took my phone, she didn't let me get home until past 10, she has been strict with us since the past one week” She started rubbing her hand over her face. “I don't know what to do anymore. ” I could hear the frustration in her voice. I knew it wasn't easy for her to deal with.“Let me see her” Grace looked like she was skeptical about my request . But then she sighed and gestured for me to follow her up the hallway. We stopped in front of a plain wooden door with the name 'Ellen Steele' in gold letters on its surface. A small plaque above the frame read 'CEO'. She turned th

Logan“You caused this!” Melissa accused me.“Me?” He chuckled unbelievably. Something had to be wrong with her. How could she sit there and words around like this?“How could I possibly cause this? You were never the easiest woman to be Melissa, you're always making stupid decisions. You have to start acting more responsibly, stop behaving as if you are invincible. Look at the mess you've gotten yourself into Melissa, this is serious. Maybe if you hadn't gone to the Frenchmen without my notice, we wouldn't be here” The minute those words left my mouth, I was struck by instant regret and even more anger.How did we even get here? Melissa looked at me as if I had slapped her across the face, I could see the anger rising in her eyes, slowly but steadily until it threatened to overtake all of her facial features. She opened her mouth to speak, no doubt to accuse me again. “Did you ever stop to notice that over the last five years, I was happy? I had my life together, I had my career, I

Melissa “What are you doing here?” I stared at her, surprised that she was here.“Maybe looking at a home that could have been mine? Maybe in search of the man who used to be mine? Maybe just in need of answers” She was wearing a pale yellow colored Gucci suit and black Jimmy Choo heels . Her hair, which had always been styled perfectly, fell loosely around her shoulders and her make up was done perfectly. I still sometimes found it hard to believe how beautiful she was.I felt a tug of guilt but it wasn't my fault, she would never understand . “No,” I stated firmly before turning to leave “You have no right to be here”She caught up with me just as I was about to close the door and grabbed the handle with her free hand, preventing my escape“Why?” She said, looking at me with sad, yet angry eyes “Do you think you can run away from me? Do you think you will be able to get rid of me that easily? I had been with that man my whole life. You could have picked any man from your endless sl

Melissa“Ellen is not doing a great job, and you are not exactly fit yet” Grandfather looked like he was caught between a rock and a hard place.“There is nothing to worry about, I can fix it. You know I will give my life for your company to survive, don't worry about my health, just say the words” My face reeked of desperation, I needed a piece of my life back.“I will talk to Ellen. You know how she can be, I am not promising you anything, but I need you to promise me something as well” he said. “You have a strong heart Melissa, If anyone has the ability to bring this company back into the industry it would be you. But you cannot do it alone, that would leave too much room for people to find out. Do you understand? If there are rumours then it'll be more than difficult to prove that I did everything in my power to keep everything secret from the outside world. I can only ask that you promise me that there will be no more unpleasant surprises. You understand what I mean right?” Grand
