I am.sorry Sophia

AIDENI’d spent the entire day anxiously waiting to hear from the private investigator I’d hired to find Clara’s killer and I didn’t like how I was always on edge. I kept wondering what I would do once I knew who killed my niece. Do I take revenge into my own hands or do I find proof of the murder and hand it all over to the police?I couldn't seem to make up my mind. I just knew that I was overrun with so much anger that I couldn't seem to control and the tension I felt in my body kept twisting my stomach in knots.So I decided to unwind.And going on a secret date night with Sophia seemed like a perfect idea to me. I believed it would be a great time for the two of us to get away from the noise and pressure for a moment.It would be just the two of us. We would have only each other's presence and peace and it would feel like the night shouldn't end. She always made me feel better whenever we were together so it was the perfect solution. Or so I thought.I'd had the restaurant I ow

A weeping mess

SOPHIAI locked my door once I was back in my apartment and threw my purse to the side. I had the urge to drink. To get drunk and fall asleep so I could forget the harsh things Aiden had said to me.But I had no appetite for anything. I didn't want to eat or drink. I just wanted to go to bed and hopefully fall asleep once my back touched the bed.With my chest heaving fast, I stormed toward my room and aggressively took my clothes off. Then I walked into the bathroom and turned the shower on. Stepping beneath it, I did not care if the water was cold.I just hissed from the freezing sensation but I could feel my anger subsiding the longer I remained under the water and soon, I was nothing but numb to the incident between me and Aiden. Or maybe I'd only successfully tucked my hurt feelings aside until it would surface again… Wrapped in my robe, I sat on my bed and just stared into space. Then I remembered Damien's warning the last time we spoke. The day he called me to his office and

Fine by me

SOPHIAI pulled open the door after seeing it was Janet and Mr Mason and I let them into my apartment before I closed the door.“Sit down please” I told them when they awkwardly stood in the middle of the living room and Janet smiled at me as she took a seat on one of the couches.“I'm sorry for showing up unannounced like this, Miss Hale. I tried to reach you to let you know that Mr Mason had come for your scheduled meeting but you wouldn't…”“It's alright, Janet. I kept my phone where I wouldn't hear it ring. I needed the peace and silence” I told her as I sat down too and I didn't miss the look of concern Mr Mason had on his face when he heard me say that.“And Mr Mason. I'm sorry I wasn't at work today. I wish I was, it's just… something came up” I smiled as I gave such a vague excuse and he smiled back at me too, his gaze filled with understanding. “You don't have to explain yourself to me, Miss Hale. Mr Cross has paid me enough for anything that comes up so I'm here to attend t

He is off the table

SOPHIA “You shouldn’t worry yourself about me, Janet” I insisted even though I knew she wouldn't listen to me and just as I predicted, she shook her head. Then she took my hands.“Miss Hale. We have worked together for years now so it's totally normal and expected of me to worry about you. So share your burden with me. Tell me what weighs you down… because your eyes are already telling me enough. You're in pains”She told me and I had to admit that her words were very convincing. She made me want to tell her everything that ran through my mind and I knew I could trust her. I didn't need proof. I just knew it.“Fine. I'll tell you everything. It's a lot but I will” I gave in to her persuasion and she smiled. Then I went ahead to tell her everything that's happened in such a short span of days.By the time I was done, she was gaping at me.“Why would Aiden say that? I'm pissed but I think there's a reason why he said that” she told me when she finally snapped out of her shock and I nod

Sit with me

SOPHIAMy phone rang while I searched for a dress to wear. Once I heard a click, I grabbed it from my vanity and pressed it to my ear while I grinned from ear to ear.I couldn't explain why I suddenly felt so content and satisfied. Maybe it was because I had a really good and long sleep. I just knew I felt that way and I didn't want the feeling to go away.“Hello, Sophia. You called” Beth spoke from the other end and my smile grew wider.“Hey, Beth. Yeah, so um... I wanted to know if you were interested in hanging out with me today” I told her and she was quiet for a few seconds. “Well, I've got to be at work today. This is the day we cross check everything in the club to know what needs fixing or replacement” She told me and I could feel a bit of the happiness I woke up with slowly deflating away. I'd begun to imagine a very uneventful day for myself where I would have nothing to do and I'll probably end up losing my mind. “Oh. Well. I thought we'd be able to spend some uninterru

I hope he leaves her

SOPHIA“Why don't you come in? I'll make us dinner” Beth invited me into her apartment when we arrived at her place in my car and I didn't turn down the invitation once she offered dinner.“Sure, let's go” I answered her without hesitation and together, we left for her place. Walking in, I couldn't help but notice how smaller her apartment was compared to mine.I had to admit that I was surprised. I'd always seen Clara as sophisticated and rich. At least that was how she always carried herself and I wondered… if she was letting me know her as well as she knew me.Without a word, I followed her into the kitchen and sat by the island to watch her go back and forth while she quickly made us something to eat.Thirty minutes later, the pasta she was making was ready and she served me a plate along with a glass of water. Then she joined me too and we both ate in silence while she typed away on her phone in between each bite she took.Soon, she had emptied her glass of water. So she stood u

Are you home already?

SOPHIAWondering why Aiden would send me such a large box, I opened the envelope to pull out whatever it contained and there was a letter.– Sophia, I know you're mad at me and you have every reason to be because I spoke to you harshly. I falsely accused you and it was very wrong of me to do such. So I apologize by saying I am sorry. I was drunk and didn't even realize what I was doing until I became sober. I miss you Sophia. I miss talking to you so please pick up my calls. I planned a date for us and it's tomorrow night. All you have to do is wear the dress I got you and someone will come and get you. I hope you come.Love, Aiden Cross – I kept staring at the piece of paper even after I'd read his letter and sighing heavily, I tossed it aside and pulled the dress he bought for me out of the box to have a look.Then I realized there was also a pair of shoes and a box of jewelry too and I gaped at everything he bought for me in disbelief. I couldn't believe this was how relentless A

Ungrateful bitches

DAMIEN“There’s someone who wants to see you, Mr Locke.” my assistant told me and I looked up to face her.“Who is this someone?” I asked her.“Beth Carter. Should I let her in, Mr Locke?” she asked while I shut my laptop close and I nodded.“Let her in,” I told her. With that, she walked out of the office and seconds later, there was a knock on the door. Then Beth walked in and she smiled at me when I looked at her.“I bet you’re surprised to see me showing up unannounced in your office” she said as she made her way to one of the chairs and sat down. All while I watched her make herself comfortable before she finally looked at me.“What brings you here, Beth? I’m sure this unannounced visit had to do with Sophia. Right?” I asked her and she shrugged, that smile still stuck on her face.“What if it has to do with Sophia? Are you eager to hear what I have to say?” she asked me too and I leaned back in my chair to have a proper look at her. I bet she had come to tell me something that

The woman you love?

SOPHIAEvening came and I knew I was meant to be getting ready for the date. I should be wearing the dress Aiden got me, putting on the necklace and earrings he chose for me along with the pair of shoes but I wasn’t going to.I’d decided I wasn’t going on that date with him. So I was going to stay home and try to make the best of the night until I would fall asleep.With that, I left for the kitchen, hoping I would find something to snack on and I heard my phone beep from my pocket. At first, I was reluctant to pull my phone out and check. I could tell it would be Aiden.I was going to keep him waiting for me until he would realize I wasn’t coming. And I didn’t want to speak to him. I didn’t want him to get into my head when I was still mad at him. So I kept on looking through the cabinets for what to eat.A moment passed and my phone beeped again. I was going to ignore it again but then I didn’t think I could bring myself to do that. With a groan, I gave in to my curiosity and pulled

I'll give it to you

SOPHIA“The woman you love?” I asked Aiden in shock and he opened his mouth to speak but words didn’t come out.It was the first time I was hearing him say the L word to my face since we got back after the divorce. But seeing as he didn't have the balls to repeat himself, I wondered if he even meant it when he said it the first time.“You know what? Goodnight, Aiden. I've got a movie to watch” I told him before turning around to go back into my apartment but then he grabbed my arm and turned back around to face him.“I'm not letting you walk away” he gritted his teeth and without warning, he claimed my lips, drawing them into his and he softly biting on my lower lip.I quickly pushed him away and my chest heaved fast. Up and down nonstop as we both stared at each other. My lips still tingled from the touch of his and inside me, a storm of want and desire grew. I knew I had to make him go away before I'd lose total control of myself but I couldn't say a word.All I did was stare int
