CALL ME THE HEALER

Moreover, don’t you think it is my daughter who is to make this decision? ‘It is because of the condition of your daughter, you have no choice than to make it on her behalf. She is in no state to make a decision now. You know this.’‘I understand what you are saying but understand me. Imagine that she wakes up, realises that her leg has been cut off, and then she hates herself for it. How do you think it would play out?

It has been five days now and the pictures are still circulating. The whole of Beaumont is talking about it, but Michael doesn’t care.

FRIENDS AND BETRAYALS
Liam was in a joyful mood when he heard the knock on the door. The music he was playing was not loud but lost in the music. He didn’t go to open it at first, thinking it was someone in the neighbourhood doing some carpentry work. Then the knock came again. Lowering the volume of the music, he went to the door and opened it.‘Ah Diana, welcome. You came at the right time.’Diana came into the room, surprised by the music and the mood of the place.‘What is going on.’ She asked.Liam closed the door and came to where she stood and moved his waist in front of her. She laughed and covered her face with her hands. ‘Join me in dancing on the victory we have won today.’‘And what is that?’‘The park project has been stopped by order of the court.’‘Oh really.’‘Yes. Judge Turner approved the halting of the project till further notice. Since we didn’t get the project, any other person who wants to have it will not enjoy the peace of it. We will make sure to frustrate the plan.’‘So no work i

SPEND YOUR MONEY
It was Liam who saw her first. There was shock on his face. He pushed Diana aside and ran to Clara.‘It is not what you think.’ He begged. Clara looked him up and down, his zipper was still losing and his junior, which was now hanging low, was still visible. Diana saw Clara and sat on the bed. She didn’t say anything. Clara looked at them both and walked out of the apartment. Diana tried to pull Liam to myself for the bed to continue what they were doing before Clara came in, but he refused to join in. He just stayed silent, as he wore his clothes and dressed up. ‘Do n't allow that girl to spoil the fun?’ I said, trying desperately to diffuse the guilt he was feeling.Liam stopped what he was doing, looked at me as if I was mad and continued what he was doing.Diana got so irritated by his attitude, that she sat up and kneeling on the bed and barked at him. ‘I mean, why do you keep going back to her? Does she satisfy you the way I do? Does she make you feel good, feel like a man? S
