Letter

[Same day]After a stressful day at the office, Ethan had one more thing to do so he stood outside a building that looked like a registered nursery, and made his way in after few minutes of looking around. The nursery has the scent of talcum powder linger in the air and this wasn't Ethan's first time in this place. He signed the pickup sheet at the front desk and went for the reason he was there. Noah, his son.Noah was in the corner when he found him, seated in the low chair they kept by the window, holding a wooden block with the intense concentration of someone solving a very important problem. The almost two year old toddler had Ethan’s eyes and some distinct features from his mother. “Hey, big man.”Ethan crouched down in front of him. Noah looked up from the block. Then he held it out, offering it."Thank you." Ethan took it seriously, "Very generous of you." he smiled while the toddler returned the smile happily. The drive home was the usual kind of quiet. Noah sat in the r

Taken Over.

[Lisbon–Same day] [8pm]Damien's car pulled up at an airfield. The airfield was small…one of the private ones outside the city that didn't appear on most navigation apps. The private jet sat at the far end with its stairs already lowered, engines beginning their warm-up cycle, the ground crew working efficiently even though they worked with urgency. “I told you to make sure the jet is ready on time” Damien frowned at Lucas“It's ready, they just need two minutes”Lucas said “We don't have that time…”Damien interrupted but another interruption came in from of cars. The first car appeared at the access road, then a second, and then three more, pulling in hard and fast, fanning out in a perimeter formation that showed they were professionals not amateurs. The cars had LISBON SECURITY AGENCY written on it and the men had the same tag on their uniforms.“Why are they here?” Ava asked, clutching Estelle tightly to herself. But Adrian came down from on of the cars and he looked angry, Dam

House Arrrest

"Later, they should write a letter. We need to leave" Damien said.Lucas stepped fully inside and looked at the situation more carefully. "Do I want to know?""Tell them to take him," Damien said. "They know who he is so after treating him, he should be sent back to the US.” He addedLucas went back to the door. Outside the cars and men outside looked like they multipled as Adrain's men were getting arrested and Damien’s men were leaving. Damien heard Lucas address them before they left. April sat down in one of the seats like her legs had decided to stop cooperating while Rosario was looking calm than before, her muttering reduced a bit. Ava looked at Estelle who was already asleep in her arms, her little girl has experienced a lot in just one evening. "Are you hurt?" Damien asked her, his eyes searching her body. "No." She looked at him, then at the cut above his brow, and the blood on his shirt. "Are you?""I'll manage."Damien replied and sat down to rest. Ava looked at him for

Got Her Memories Back

[Sterling Mansion]Damien didn't go home straight from the airport, he had to make sure Ava got home…especially since Mrs Sterling wasn’t aware that her daughter isn't dead but when he got the call concerning Amber's arrest, he had to drive out immediately, letting Lucas lead the ladies.Ava stood just inside the front door, Rosario behind her while April was beside her still carrying Estelle and for a moment, nobody moved because Mrs Sterling stood frozen across the room as they both looked at each other. Mrs Sterling made a sound that wasn't quite a word or a name, tears streamed down her cheeks as she crossed the room and Ava who was also shedding tears of joy went forward too as they wrapped themselves in each others warm embrace.Mrs Sterling still couldn't believe it, “Ava…”she slowly called, holding her face in both hands, assessing to check and confirm with her own hands that her child was real, present and whole. "Let me look at you." Her voice was very quiet."Mom." Ava's

Lives on Faith

[Damien's Mansion]There’s no perfect word to explain the amount of stress Damien faced since he returned to the city. He's been back for thirty-six hours but went to the station and attended a press he pre-organized to explain how Ava who was presumed dead, is still alive. The public had being handled and he had to check up on few things at the Phoenix code solutions, a statement that had been issued but it has been settled. He should have drove to the Sterling Mansion but Lucas told him to come home and he did so, thinking Ava was there…but she wasn't.He had done all of that and then come home to a house that did not feel like one and he found that oppressive. Lucas found him in the living room, which was where he had been for the past two minutes, seated in the chair by the window with his phone on the table beside him, which he had not looked at.Lucas sat down across from him, thinking of the best way to tell him why he asked him to come home instead when Ava was not around.

Matchmaker

[One week later] [SilverCrest Academy]April resumed better than before, like a newborn who just newly got introduced to the world…she saw things differently now and was filled with the kind of happiness that couldn’t be explained completely. The lectures went well, people are in the cafeteria and complained about parking and argued about grades. April almost forgot what ordinary felt like. For the past year, everyday felt gloomier than the last from the way April had moved through spaces, chose seats, answered questions, managed the distance between herself and other people. All of it had been operating in reference to grief, the absence of Ava.But it was gone now, and she felt lighter. She sat beside Gavin at lunch and he felt so happy the April he knew was back…an improved version because she became more free than before. He didn't know April had something important to clarify with him and he didn't notice until she looked at him across the table and cleared her throat, preparin

Pampered Princess

[Two days later] [Sterling Mansion]It was a full house with the only person missing being April, she was in school. Lauren took some days off from work so she could spend more time with her friend and baby Estelle. Baby Estelle even at four months knew she was not an ordinary kid. She had blankets that were acceptable to use on her, and the people she enjoyed carrying her. Once things doesn't go the way she wants, her cries fills the mansion. Lauren and Mrs Sterling never found it to be a problem despite Ava talking about what she noticed. They were more concerned on who was Estelle's favorite."She reached for me first," Lauren said."Nope, she was reaching for the light behind you," Mrs. Sterling replied, not looking up from the baby."She was not reaching for the light. She looked directly at me and opened her tiny arms""Babies don't look directly at things and she didn't intentionally stretch her arms to you, Lauren.” "I'm sure this time, she did look at me.” Ava was on the s

DNA Test

[Sterling mansion]Ava and Damien still had the eye contact going for almost a minute but Damien moved inside, closing the door behind him. Mr. Thompson was in the chair across from Ava, his teacup raised, looking between the two of them as the air felt tensed.He knew they needed to have a private conversation so he stood up and cleared his throat, "I should join in fighting for being the baby's favorite…I haven't carried her yet” he said while Ava smiled, finally shifting her eyes from Damien to him.“You're her grandfather”she smiled“Ooh, I've gotten a title. Let me go and carry my granddaughter”he smiled and climbed the staircase. He gave Damien a slight nod which meant he should talk freely as he left.Damien waited till Thompson was out of sight, then he moved forward, "You told Lauren not to let me come," he said."I did, but how did you get in?."Ava asked“She didn't tell the guards to stop me”Damien answered“Lauren…”she rolled her eyes, “let me guess…April told you about th

Regret

Days passed, turning into weeks and things got busy. The legal process moved with a fast precision like pressure was being applied and of course it was.Lauren was in her element, Amber and Adrian are about to regret messing with her bestfriend. This was one of the things that attracted Victor to her. He loves how extraordinary Lauren becomes in a room full of opposing counsel, as her mind moved through the argument like one who had mapped out all that would happen. He had fallen in love with several things about Lauren, not all of them were easy, but this one was consistently one of his favourites. She did not perform in the courtroom and whatever she said had solid facts and evidence around it. Adrian's extradition was in process.The Lisbon authorities had their documentation as his arrest was formal and on record. His legal team had begun the predictable sequence of manoeuvres but the evidence Lauren provided through Damien was substantial enough that the manoeuvres were buying

Apologized

Damien had been in the Sterling Mansion more in the past two weeks than he had in the entirety of the preceding year. He did not come every day because of work, but he tried to show up just to bond with his daughter who he had to miss the period of her being in the womb and the first day she came to the world. Precious moments like that were lost because of his sister and her son but he won't be downcast by that. He would create his own memories with his princess and shower her with all the love he has to give. Ava had a mug in front of her and her hair was still loose, which she almost never let him see, so she looked up when he came in but there was no need to run and change. She smiled as he placed a cute peck on her cheeks.“My queen”He smiled“Ooh please,”Ava blushed and stood up to help in the kitchen. Her joy couldn't get contained…from the fact that she couldn't bear children to being the mother to a pretty baby girl, with a loving husband. She was leaving the dream life.
