"How much is the bail?"
Lancy asked, staring at the officer who obviously was calculating. He had looked her from the head to the toe to figure out what she was worth. She was also ready for him. Some corrupt officers.
"Based on the situation of the case, we should let her go freely. Since the Plaintiff and the Prosecuting attorney couldn't defend their stances. Therefore, since nothing was held against her, it turned out an in-house unanimous judgement. So we would --"
"Are you saying the bail is free? She must be weary by now. I don't have a time for the stories please."
Lancy's impatient voice fueled the rage on her face. She tried to tame it as the officer smiled at her,
"You can go. The bail is free. Take her only, the other man is to serve terms and could be bailed several days after."
Lancy sighed and brought out her purse. She counted five $1000 bills and handed it to the officer.

In a Plane."Are you fine?"Lancy was looking at the side of Dia's face. The latter was looking through the window as though no one was seated beside her. It could only mean one thing; she had been swallowed by her thoughts."Dia?"She touched her gently, shaking her arm. Dia looked at her,"Sorry. What did you say?""Is it Grandma? If you have a change of mind we could always go back. I thought leaving Seattle was all that you wanted."Dia looked to the front. One of the flight attendants, the one who had helped her with her luggage just walked past. She didn't know why she felt drawn to the lady. She ignored the urge and looked back at Lancy."Don't be ridiculous. This isn't a car or bus where you can jump on and off."Lancy smiled then said,"Of course, but we can stop at the nearest airport and find another flight back to Seattle.Though it might take time."Dia turne

Wisconsin."Aren't you going for no show? It's been weeks now you've been at home?"At the question, Lancy turned to her in the couch, shooting the contemptuous gaze,"Are you sick of me and want to get rid of me?"Dia chuckled, eating from the pint of popcorn."If you were told this, wouldn't you smack the person? How would I possibly want to get rid of you or is it vice versa?"Lancy shook her head and rolled her eyes,"You sure know how to play around words."Dia sniggered then concentrated on the Netflix series on the plasma TV. They were watching a Korean TV program; The King: Eternal Monarch.Then Dia said,"But seriously, Wisconsin seemed not have gotten enough of you yet. At least I know that there are shows you have. Why didn't you want to go? Speaking of the money."Lancy moved closer to her on the couch. She put her palm on Dia's stomach which had swelled, the

Dia and Lancy. After 8 months."See what's out today?"Lancy's voice came as soon as she closed the door. Her baggy long coat with fur lacing its neck had white substances all over it. Dia didn't want to guess wrongly. She asked instead."Welcome, love. What?"Lancy had two bags drawn in her hands and hurried to where Dia was in the living room. She dropped the bags and stretched out her hand before Dia."What?"Dia hesitated firstly but then grabbed her hand. Lancy bent over her to help her up as Dia grunted. Her stomach was now protruding, ready for delivery.They both walked gradually to the window as Lancy fiddled with the window pane. She revealed the dances of snow fluttering like the leaves of trees."Woah."Dia gasped. Lancy pecked her on the cheek and nodded her head. She muttered,"I know right. It's the first snow in this winter. I feel like there is something

Several months later. A Procession. Wisconsin."Rather majestical."A man dressed in black suit, white shirt and blue tie nudged at his counterpart sitting next to him, to whom he has addressed the speech. The other fellow shot him a rather ambiguous stare, feigning a borrowed smile then looked away past the sway of the heads to the front of the congregation where the Priest and the groom, next to him were standing.Twas a wedding procession, time had been quite quick and hastening. The chariot of time had filled the atmosphere with its neighs and grunts. And fate had just few parts played.Dia had raised her child independently, of course with the help of Lancy and with her child now 6 months old, she could go around for a while, leaving her child with an aupair who claimed to be the cousin of Lancy. Well, Lancy hadn't said otherwise.Lancy had been as supportive as ever but she had been more at the Outlook of

Under a large tree, by a lake. "And that was how Dia lived her life." Eloisa, the old woman, stopped talking, her weak eyelids flickering, going from one youth to the other. She could read several emotions on the faces of the eleven students. Especially the girls, they were very much displeased. She could tell why, she tried to make a sense, "I'm certain that majority of you wanted the story to end with Max and Dia married. After all, Max did try enough. He was the poor guy who wouldn't give up on a lady who didn't take a fancy in him. But well, I have a question to ask." She paused, as her wrinkled face and weak eyes watched the frown spread across some of the faces of the people melted into anxiety and curiosity. They would be the first college students she would be telling that story to. As soon as she had their curiosity, she found her pace, "Let's talk about your first love.

Few days later. "Albert!!!!" I called, walking through the passage which led from my room to the living room. This is like the fifth time I've been calling that nutjob, yet he wouldn't answer. I guess he doesn't really deserve me. "Albert. You're deaf or something?" I called out walking down the stairs into my very spacious and luxurious sitting room. There were several brands of exotic chairs in the middle of the room, couches, and sofas, and few other fancy chairs locked around a golden large table. All sitting on a milk-colored rug. Up ahead to the front was a halfway wall, made from thick plyboards which houses the television. At the punching of the remote control brings up the TV and tucks it in again at my will. Beneath the Plywood was a walled hollow for fire, to keep the house warm. To the left, there was a small and hollowed opening for drinks, and to the right was a vast space which leads

The eatery."First, I'll have to congratulate you on your win. You know, it's not easy to carry such burden at such age."Ivan Rodriguez started, staring wierdly at me. I could see his large eyes leaving my pretty face to my cleavages. It can only be one thing he's thinking about. But I won't be too dismissive or judgmental. I'll wait, less I appear proud."Someone must do it. But it's rather kind of you to be that sweet, Ivan."He chuckled and put two of his left fingers to his brown but scanty beards. I have no idea what he was trying to pick."As you said, someone has to. You know, Praise you. I'm sure several other men will admit that, even if not to your face."I smiled and drank from the glass of wine. I looked at my golden wrist watch. I was conscious of time."Why have you called me here, Ivan? You know, your father is quite the notable influencer of my firm. And for his sake have I stoppe

Four months Later. Maldives.~Dia Wealene~"How many times have they kicked?"Caidine called at me, walking out of the hut to join the remaining three of us. We were seated at the edge of the long wooden elevated basement on which the hut had been built. The row of huts were built on the ocean.I had my head resting on Albert's shoulder and Ray seated next to me. Caidine got to us and handed each of us a hollow, long cup of tasty spicy juice. Ray let her sit next to me."Now you've made them seem jobless. I don't believe that all babies do is kick. They sure have some other tasks they catch up to."I teased. I knew I was being unreasonable but no matter how sour and crazy my joke seemed, Albert's laugh was always the loudest. And sometimes, I am forced to think that he laughs at how boring my jokes are.And he has been acting that way since he discovered that I was pregnant with his twins. Two g

Wealene's multimillionaire house. Yorkshire.~Albert~"Let no one say a thing, I got this covered."Dia promised as Ray, Caidine, and Ray jr in between them walked towards us after pulling over their own car in Mr Wealene's large compound."Everyone seems to be here. But who is the owner of those strange cars. I hate to believe that crazy Mr Wilson is here. But it's all good, everything would be sorted today."She affirmed as she ran her arm into the space between my arm and waist. She held me like couples would do and called,"After me, y'all."As we walked towards the door, I wanted so badly to tell her the last secret but sincerely I was scared. And I still am. I should tell her but I just can't, no matter how hard I try.But the fact is, the truth cannot stay hidden for long. In just less than five minutes, all would be ratted out.

Sweet Home.~Dia Wealene~"When did you get a new Ferrari?"He queried as soon as he pulled over in my compound. One thing was the fact that I couldn't believe that this was the end of vacation, let alone the recent stance he had just assumed."What Ferrari?"I turned to him but he had stepped out of the car and walked over to my side. He got the door and I stepped out. He pointed in the direction of the garage. Parked was a red Ferrari. "I never drove this in, and I don't remember telling the automobile company to bring a new car. Nor did Caidine tell me about any--"I hesitated for a while as a supposition suddenly hit me."Come."I walked towards the door as he caught up with me. He held my hand and we both walked into the parlor."Where are they?"I quizzed, walking into the empty first parlour. Then suddenly, came the blast of music over the speaker, b

Colorado.~Dia Wealene~"I wish we could stay a week more."I complained, tracing my pinky finger through the deep hollow between his two pouting chests. The tip of my skin feeling the hardness of his torso. My head was on the spot where the shoulder meet the chest. We were both in bed. We just finished having sex. And it hadn't been forever since we got here. It's late at night. We're in a hotel. Hyatt Residence Club Beaver Creek, Mountain Lodge."We will. But not now. We will go on several other vacations after our wedding."He assured, stroking the loose strands of hair on my temple. Gentle caresses that turn me on."But wedding can wait. Let's just enjoy many more days alone."I looked up at him, my head poised, chin on his chest, eyes sorting out his.He suddenly sat up, leaning on the head of the bed. He helped me up too and made me sit in between his thighs, his warm arms wounded around m

Day 5 and 6
In the middle of the ocean. Bangkok.~Dia Wealene~"Where'd he go?"I walked into the large sitting room in the yacht. My eyes were slightly heavy from sleep but that wasn't enough to slow me down. I walked past the numerous couches locked into each other in a circular mound in the heart of the space.I put up my left hand and caught the sight of the diamond ring glistering. I smiled at the memory of a day before yesterday. I kissed the ring and let out a light laugh. I walked towards the door.We'd spent the previous day in a private jet and had flew all the way from Vegas to Thailand. I have no idea how he chooses his thing, but he seemed obsessed with long-distance stuff.The 24 hours we spent on the jet passed by so quickly, since we spent most of it playing games and watching movies. And earlier this morning, we've set on the ocean and had had some sex spree. And I was just waking up. Waking up to hi

"Albert?"I turned around. I was on a cliff with a flat, rectangular top. At the edge of the cliff on the four sides were lit candles and in the middle were sprinkled pink flowers all over the place."Albert?"My heart would liquefy. I'm sure."I'm here!"I heard his voice from the path that led up the cliff. I hurried towards there and couldn't move any further. There were rocky stairs that lead up the cliff. And at the edges of the stairs were candles too. That must be what we had climbed.Albert was walking towards me, climbing the stairs, and in his hands were two giant bouquet of different kinds of flowers I'd never seen."Albert?"I wasn't sure of what else to say as he got to me and handed me both the flowers."Come, my love."He called and I followed him not sure of what to expect even though my sixth-sense was loud enough.As we got back to the spot I had left be

The Surprise
Grand Canyon.~Dia Wealene~"Do you really think this is necessary?"I argued, not sure of what else to say. Of course I was been beaten by curiosity as well as anxiety, but both had pressed on me so greatly that I was beginning to feel uncomfortable."We're almost there. You don't have to worry, as soon as I park the car, you'll be in my arms all the way through, till we get to where we are going."He explained. But I kept up the pace of the argument,"But really, Albert. It's already night. Having a blindfold on me makes no difference."I could feel a silhouette eating me up as he pressed his lips on my cheek."To me, it matters. Just trust me, baby."There was plea in his tone and I wasn't ready to prove further."Fine."I muttered, even though twasnt enough. I wanted to tell him to kiss me in the lips to shut me up but I let the urge slide.We had left Japan early this mor

Thermae Bath Spa. Japan. ~Dia Wealene~ "This is one of those. At least, my young days tasted some of the renowned English buildings in some part of the world." He replied, explaining. He was leaning on the border of the Minerva bath. Twas like a large pool with steams, but I could tell from the feel of the water on my skin, that the water is well treated; mineral-rich. "But it's rather strange. A UK establishment in the heart of Japan. Maybe I should say it's impressive. One of these days, Cleavinks should have a branch too in one of these Asian countries. I'm sure their folks are pretty innovative." He turned to me at that, closing the space in between us; we were facing the front before the turn. "No folks are dumb. But really, have we come all the way to Japan to talk about business?!" He pulled me closer and stole my lips. His left hand at my nape, and the right sliding down my back till it h

Few Days Later.~Albert~"Where to?"She quizzed, taking a quick glance at the side of my face. I turned to her as quickly as I could, my eyes straying off the express road, my firm hands drifting the steering wheel through the road."Disclaimer: All you have to do for these seven days is to sit back and trust all of my words. Because if you ask me again to where I'm taking you, I would have no choice but to tell you, which would make it no surprise anymore. You know, I can't really keep a secret from you anymore."I paused. The rays of the sun stealing through the window of her seat beside me revealed the glee sweeping past her face. I guess I tried. Caidine had told me to give details whenever she asks a question. I had forgotten to ask her why, but I guess it's really working and helping."What else did Caidine teach you?"She sneered at me. My heart missed a beat. I wanted to show it as Caidin
