Black Widower Thomas Randolph Novels & Stories

“You have to prepare another heart for me. You want Randall’s heart for Wendell, that’s fine. But I’m not just going to sit here and die. I want to leave here alive and have a fresh start.” Vivian was quiet for a few seconds. Her fingertips tapped out a rhythm on the armrest. That was her little tick when she was nervous. When I saw her hesitate, a wave of grief rolled through me. I smirked. “What, you can go to that much trouble to give Randall’s heart to Wendell, but you’re not planning to make him your husband?” Vivian’s expression shifted. Then, she finally signed. “I found you a new heart two months ago. I won’t let you die.”

The sound of her heels faded down the hall. The sound of Rose’s sobs still filled the corridor, softer now, frayed into small, uneven breaths. Doctor Han sat slumped against the wall, his face buried in his hands. The photographs. The gambling. The debts. His wife’s tired eyes when she asked about another “late shift.” All of it came rushing back, and with it, the cold realization that there was nowhere to run. He looked at his trembling hands, the same hands that had written the prescription, the same ones that had mixed the powder into the bottle.

I needed some answers and I needed them now! As I set the tray aside for Zane, a plan formed in my mind. I really needed answers, and Randolph seemed like the perfect source.

Walking up to him, I touched his arm lightly to gain his attention before whispering in a low tone. "Randolph, please tell me. Who is Mandy?" A mischievous glint appeared in the old man’s eyes. "Why, Mrs. McAllister," he said, emphasizing my fake title, "is Mr. McAllister’s pretend wifey feeling a tad bit jealous?"

What's more, my mom has been urging me to get a divorce. "Isn't Whitney a good wife? Why are you doing this? You're just insatiable. I would be satisfied if my wife were half as obedient as yours." "How about we swap wives then?" Thomas nudged Charlie once more. After hearing their conversation, I felt like my head was about to explode. What were they talking about? Divorce? Infidelity? Swapping wives? I couldn't stop myself from trembling when I understood. It turned out that this whole thing was a scheme that Thomas had cooked up!

With tears welling up in his eyes, my son, Luke, said, "Can I spend my final birthday with Mommy before we leave? It's my fifth birthday. Mommy promised she'll celebrate with me." My heart broke into a million pieces listening to his plea. "Alright, we'll spend your fifth birthday with Aunt Stella, then we'll go." After tucking Luke into bed, I opened the drawers and took out Sarah Grant's death certificate. This year was our sixth year of marriage. I never expected it to end with me becoming a so-called widower. I did not even have to sign any divorce papers.

"Yes. I'll have a little fun with the girl before sending her crying back to daddy. That should be a loud and clear message." "Don't fuck with us, Hart. We're three steps ahead of you. I like it." Randall is nodding, as if picturing the scenario in his head. "You should have no problem with the seduction part. Women trail after you like lovesick puppies. Wish you could send a little bit of that magic my way. You don't even take advantage of it." "Women bore me unless they have property for sale." I spare my CFO a quick glance, before opening an urgent email and scanning the contents. "And you've been married three times, Randall. Your alimony payments alone should be enough to swear off the

The villagers from Randell Village had been seriously affected, making Axel truly despicable. Randy smiled wryly. "I don't know what it's called, but I can't go a day without it. Please, just give me a little. I’ll do anything to repay you." "Don't lie to us!" Hendrick scolded. "No wonder your mother calls you useless." Adrian released his grip. There was no cure for Wyldeweed addiction. Seeing Randy's desperation, if they did not provide him with it, he might resort to drastic measures.

Thomas had plans for that void, and whatever walked out of it. “Maybe you are right Captain. A healthy woman just dies in her sleep with no warning or even a case of the hiccups.” Thomas downed the rest of his whiskey and walked out of his mother’s house wanting to stretch his legs. He wandered down the street in search of something or someone. That and many other memories like to sneak up on him. It had to because he wouldn’t allow it any other time.

When your son's bedtime stories came from mommy because daddy was always at another business dinner? "Ladies." I forced a smile that probably looked more like a grimace.
