31 — No Other Room

Nora“I’m driving,” I said when we got to the parking lot, but he simply looked at my outstretched hand and brushed past me. I gasped and stormed towards him, standing between him and the car door.“I know you heard me. I don’t want to repeat myself.”“This is my car.” He leaned forward, those intense sea-green eyes catching mine. “Besides, you don’t know the hotel I’m taking you to.”I bit my lip. He wasn’t lying; I wasn’t familiar with the neighbourhood. But I was too stubborn to give in. “It’s weird when you say it like that. Plus, you can always direct me from the passenger’s seat.”“So, you’d like me to talk you through the way to your destination.” I opened my mouth to gasp, but no sound came out. My breath hitched as he lifted both his arms and trapped me in between himself and his black BMW.The double meaning tucked neatly between his words wasn't lost on me, and I owed the goosebumps spreading across my arms and back to that.“Never mind,” I said and ducked so I could get ou

32 — PI Reveals Some Truth

NoraThe morning after was weird, and I wished it was because I slept in the clothes I wore to the party. The air was awkward, and Dorian didn’t say a word to me. Not even when we went to check on Michelle.Thankfully, she was alright and was cleared for discharge. She could also tell the air was awkward, and on the way, when Dorian wouldn’t budge as she tried to break the ice, she ended up talking to me instead.After saying our goodbyes, I turned to Dorian and managed a small smile. “Thanks for the ride.”He nodded, his expression blank. “Yeah, see you on Monday.”I went in and had a lovely shower, changed into something comfortable, then made some food. Uncle Colton dropped Zara off, and just then, I received a congratulatory message from her new school. They had accepted her, and she was expected to resume on Monday.At least I could drop her off on her first day before I started training.“Mummy!” Zara squealed and jumped on me while I was on the couch, and I emailed the school b

33 — Sorrows And Prayers

NoraDeath had a way of being cruel and sweet at the same time. No doubt, it was always painful when it took a loved one away, but it could also bridge a gap in the family relationship with the absence of that person.In my case, it didn’t give me that grace. And I now wish I could turn back time and change the way things happened. Maybe if I hadn’t pulled away from the people who loved me, after my father died, I would’ve been saved from that hellhole I called a home a long time ago.But anyway, I’ll count my blessings, and I’ll count Mrs. Colt’s blessings too, because what I witnessed as I stepped into the funeral home was a union between every member of her family present.What I gathered through the years as she worked was that her family weren’t as close because they always fought, and she was the one constantly trying to bridge the distance between everyone.So sad that it took her death to bring everyone together.It took my death for me to see the truth too. And that’s why I s

34 — Insufferable Woman

NoraLover?After thinking about it for the little time she gave me, I realized who this woman was and what she was talking about.I had completely ignored my phone this morning, especially cause of the headlines. Looking at it wasn’t going to help my resolve to not fake date him.My eyelashes fluttered as I properly opened my eyes, my chin raised, and I grabbed another paper towel to dry my hand.Clarification wasn’t needed. It was all over my expression, but what I hid was my confusion. Whatever she had to say wasn’t going to be good; that much was clear.I just didn’t understand why she thought I was ruining Dorian’s life.“I know his team put you both up to this.” My brows furrowed, deep lines of confusion creased between them. His team? What— “And he chose you because of this boyish obsession he’s had since God knows when.”She gave me a once-over while I was too stunned to speak, then continued. “How much did they offer you so I can pay you double it for you to leave my son alon
