Twice In A Lifetime Show Novels & Stories

Sebastian asked, "Mrs. Clementine, what should we do with this gift with no name?" One glance at Ciel across the room and I waved him off. "Get rid of it. Now." If that jealous man saw it, there'd be drama. After that, Stanley vanished for good. I heard he went back to Southport, walked away from everything, and lived alone the rest of his life. Never married. Ciel and I grew old together, surrounded by kids and grandkids. This time, when all was said and done, the past stayed buried. Stanley Hamilton and I never crossed paths again.

In my previous life, during the twentieth year of my marriage to Avery, my parents went hiking and supposedly slipped and fell to their deaths. Back then, I kept telling the police I didn't believe it had been an accident. My father, Daniel Bennett, was a veteran, and my mother, Karen Bennett, had spent years performing in a military band. Neither of them was the type to be careless. Still, Avery and our daughter, Emma, kept trying to convince me otherwise. They said my parents were getting older. It wasn't unusual for someone their age to get dizzy or lose their footing. They even withdrew the case with the police on my behalf and had my parents cremated right away.

“You will either marry Caspian or Arnold. Our shipping business needs the protection of the Falcone family.” Suddenly, a familiar voice rang clearly in my mind. ‘This time, I’ll make sure I choose the perfect husband first.’ I snapped my head toward my sister, Leia. She was gracefully smoothing her skirt, a sweet, flawless smile on her face. However, what I had just heard… Was that her inner voice? ‘In my last life, I married that violent lunatic Caspian and lived in fear every single day. This time, I’ll take the gentle Arnold, and Elysia shall suffer instead.’

The wind blew gently caressing our face with the warmth of the late afternoon breeze, a familiar fragrance enters my nostrils it’s been six years since then I haven't heard anything from her but her billion dollar company remains the same and became even more powerful Lu took over it that's what I know after I flew back home to make my dreams come true. "Don't worry, my gramps told me that when two people did not end up together in this timeline, another life will be granted for them," She gave me her toothy grin. "Maybe in some other lifetimes, you will meet her again," I hope so darling, I will be waiting for her, again. **********

Who could it be? I unlock the cell phone and read the message. UNKNOWN: “Hi, I'm the guy you danced with last night, it was nice to meet you, would you like to meet up some other day and have a drink?” I start typing and send the message. “It seems that the feeling is not mutual, he gave you his number wrong” I leave the cell phone on the bed to get dressed and not two minutes later I get another message. “I'm sorry, I guess so. Damn! I don't understand why the same thing happened to me a second time”

I closed my eyes, sensing the free fall of my body through the air, this time he couldn't stop me either. Just like the incident of eighteen years ago repeated again, except that the person who fell was no longer the person he loved, I did not hear his heart-breaking screams like before. I made a deal, accepted my fate and let go, the last bit of consciousness left before falling into a coma, I felt like someone was holding my body in my lap. Your heart rate is so real...

Heaving his body onto the sofa, he reached for the remote control of his television and switched it on. The performance of the one and only Nation's Fairy, Shirley Blakes, greeted his eyes.

Her hands trembled just a little as she leaned against her desk. There was a knock again. She tensed. “If you’re back for round two, Charles, I swear to God…” The door opened just a crack. “Not Charles,” came a voice that got her even more agitated. Xavier. She hesitated, then sighed. “What?” He peeked in, a grin playing on his lips. “Saw the show from the hallway. Impressive Miss Alara.” Alara rolled her eyes but didn’t respond. He stepped in anyway.

FLASH BACK YESTERDAY NIGHT, 8:30PM It's been years since my father, Dr. Bennett, had died from a car crash during my 15th birthday and ever since life had been hard for me. Don't get me wrong, I came from a wealthy family but it's the same as coming from a poor family when you're nothing but an illegitimate child. My mother was my father's mistress as I was told by my stepmom but I could remember how my father described her whenever I asked him about my mother, she wasn't just a mistress. She was his love.

"The treatment might save us both. Or it might kill us both. I don't know what to do." More kicks. Hope was moving a lot now. Like she was trying to tell me something. "Are you saying take the treatment? Or don't take it?" The kicks continued. And then something strange happened. The kicks formed a pattern. Kick, kick, pause. Kick, kick, pause.
