Elena. I sat in front of Marcus writing down everything that he had been discussing with the Congressman. From what I had gathered, he was one of the few people who had a speck of integrity in him "What am I hearing concerning a lot of people downtown? Does it mean that nobody can give us what we want?" He asked curiously. Marcus was a champion in his own right but that still did not erase the fact that he was accountable to some people who might be greater than him when it came to this aspect of politics. "Well we have been able to gather intel on the necessary things but I still don't think that it's enough." Marcus said vaguely. I was learning about the laws of powers when he came to dealing with wealthy men. You never reveal all your secrets to your opponent no matter how close they are to you. The congressman figured out that we were trying to omit a few things and shook his head. "Everyone knows where I stand when it comes to things like this and I hate it when you tr

Elena. I had never heard such a fallacious statement in my entire life and did not feel like the wind had been knocked out of me but this was all a lie and I could smell his gimmick from afar. "You must really think that I'm stupid to believe anything that you just put out there simply because you said it. Have you stopped to consider the fact that I might also be on good terms with her?" Toby scoffed. "I'm not speaking because I just want to cause a rift between both of you. Instead I'm telling you something that could be helpful if you decide to abide by it. Nobody knows what she's capable of doing but I do." I laughed at him again. He was delusional to think that I was going to believe him over everybody else. "How do you even sleep at night with such full blown lies? She might be everything else but trying to sabotage her own son is not one of the things that she is good at." Toby typed something into his cell phone before handing it over to me and I saw some chats between

Elena. Shock engulfed me. This wasn't remotely close to what I was expecting but I didn't think that I had a choice in the matter. Maybe I wasn't fixated on what this meant for both of us but I believed that we could find a way around it and sort out our differences before things went out of hand. "You know that this is not going to be easy, right?" "I do. I just know I care about what my mother wants to achieve from all of this. I would prefer not having to deal with her at all because that makes more sense." Marcus asked in irritation. "Am I really sure that I want to know what this is about?" This could run deeper than I ever expected but I thought that the entire world revolved around me and refused to see things from his own perspective which made me wonder if I was even onto anything at all. "Why do you sound shocked that I know that my mother is trying to sabotage me on various levels? Do you think that I've not thought about it properly?" Maybe I should even feel

Elena. Taking the right decision had never been easy and no matter how much I wanted to spin it around I could have done better. I decided on what I wanted to do a long time ago and this included making sure that I remained as active as possible without allowing anyone to take what I thought was mine away from me. Most importantly I wanted to also defy the assumptions that everybody could get away with anything as long as it was consistent. Marcus might not see what was wrong with the entire plot but I was willing to make him realize that he had been missing it all along and that would do him no good if he continued this way We had not come in contact with each other ever since I moved away and I didn't think that I wanted to see him anytime soon. Seeing him was only going to open a can of worms and I would rather just remain on my own dance to allow myself get involved in something that could mess with my mind and then leave me stranded halfway One of the most amazing part

Elena. "Mommy, why are we no longer staying with Mr Marcus?" Diego asked out of the blues while writing his assignments, making me a little bit confused for a minute. My son wasn't supposed to get attracted to someone that wasn't there for him from the start but I knew how being a child worked. It wasn't generally his fault that any of these things had happened and I wasn't going to allow that to complicate my relationship with him but I could be very careful in making statements and giving answers that could cause more pain. "Sometimes we don't have answers to everything. He and I decided it would be a good thing for us to stay away from each other." Diego looked at me with a crest fallen face, possibly wondering what had come over his mother but that would be for me to know and for him to find out much later because he was only a child. "Mommy, why don't you like anyone doing something for us?" I cocked my head sideways, avoiding any connection that was going to land
