FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 133
I sat looking at Maria as she smiled and laughed while playing with kids at the NGO. It was glorious, and I was happy she was happy. She needed this child, she might have been wanting one for years now.After the play, we decided to stick around and see how everything pans out. To play with the kids and just get to know why Amanda and Jacob love the place very much.Looked to the side and saw Pit talking to Koko, she was still upset with him, but she was open to talking and she didn’t let that affect her part in the play. They both did great, actually.Since I couldn’t do anything about hearing whatever they were saying, I gave up and just sat there thinking to myself. I was the only one without someone to talk to or to play with. Only the little guy I was holding in my hands.He was about a year old and had enough weight for a child his age. With short black perfect hair.Smiled at him as he did the same. Then played with him for a while before giving him to the nanny.“Why are you s

“I know it was hard for you. But he will be fine,” Maria spoke as she got ready for bed.I just sat on the bed, looking straight ahead. “It is not about him being okay. I know Dream will rescue him. I mean, the woman will burn the whole kingdom if she has to.” I spoke with a forced smile.“Then why is my husband looking all grumpy and sad? What is making you look like that if not our first-born son Carl?” She asked, walking to me.“That he called me and I failed him. I know we talked about it and I’m okay with being here. I love it here. I’m just scared he will be upset with me and disappointed that I failed him,” I explained to her, choosing my words nicely so as not to make her upset again.She walked over and wrapped me in a hug as she sat next to me, “I know that. I know how much he means to you and believe me, he means the same to me. And thank you for not going. For staying with us. Also, Carl will be upset. Heck, he will come here even for that,” she smiled.He looked at her, “

Sat in the leaving room with Roland opposite me sitting next to Maria. While Pit and his grandparents sat on the other side.Well, just to make him chill with Pit, I had to call him and talk to him about it before he showed up here. And since he wanted to have an experience of a lifetime, he also came by flight with Vykalia.And I didn’t even understand what was happening to him. On the other hand, he left Dream on their wedding day, and here he was with his x wife.Was he doing all this for Carl?“Justine, we have reasons to believe you haven’t been doing okay here. We heard you have been wanting to go home when we allowed you two to come here because you need a break and because of that one,” Vykalia spoke.Well, me and her haven’t really had a heart to heart conversation like I have with Roland. She was just Carl’s mother to me and that was that.And the only reason she was still staying with me was because I wanted Carl to get to know her mother. Because I wanted him to experience

“Maria, I know your family has done so many things that would make you want not to forgive them. But I also know you. You have a heart of gold,” I told her as I took her upstairs because I needed to talk to her alone.The rest remained downstairs and Roland wanted to take a look at Pit’s grandparents. He said he doesn’t trust Pit that much. He needed to confirm something before allowing the man into our lives again.She just sat there, not even listening, I presume. I know how much she needed this, even when she didn’t want to acknowledge it. I saw the look in her eyes when Roland said her parents have been coming to apologize to her.“Maria,” I walked and sat next to her, holding her hands. “I know it hurts and believe me you I do feel the same. What they did to your sister and her unborn baby was bad. They treated me like crap, for God’s sake. But as Roland always says, we never give up on family,” I told her and wrapped her in a warm embrace.Then, after a while, she just began cry

“Roland, this is a new year, I need us to start on a fresh perspective, okay? No lies, no secrets. You need to tell me what is happening. As in now,” I told him, but he was looking down. Then I turned to Vykalia who was looking head up, “Vykalia, I know you and I have never had that heart to heart conversation, but I also know you know a lot of what happens in my life than I do myself, and whatever he is hiding from me you also know,” I told her.She looked at her husband as they sat on my bed. She rubbed his back soothingly, then leaned closer and whispered something to him.He looked up at me, but said nothing either ways. He tried to open up, but closed his mouth again. Failing to formulate any word.Was whatever they were hiding that too much for me to handle? They have told me pretty much far worse things than whatever they might be hiding. And Roland knows me enough not to his things from me for the sake that I will be scared or I can’t take it.“Roland, I will take whatever it

We stood in the midst of the person I was never expecting to see here. Well, I was thinking she was going to find us in one way or the other, but not so soon.She sat on the couch while the rest of us stood. I was more mesmerized by her courage and dedication. The audacity she had to come here knowing too well I was going to teach her a lesson.“Monica, what are you doing here? I thought we talked about all this. What do you want?” I asked, walking to her. “I felt pit for you and didn’t finish you when I had the chance. But I didn’t ask you to follow me and start bothering me again,” I told her and stood three feet from her.She just smiled, looking at Maria, “your close friend is your worst enemy. Now I believe,” she spoke and stood up. Then she walked a few paces away from us before turning to look at me. “That is not why I’m here, though. I didn’t appreciate the betrayal. But gave me more time to work on my art,” she began.I never knew she was powerful. She wasn’t, actually. The o

Paced up and down as I tried to think why I allowed my guide down. Why did I let go of the fact that Frazer might turn on me one day? Why I didn’t keep looking at him as a threat?He knew everything about me. He had been watching me ever since he realized I was there and have always wanted what father left me.Was born in rage and anger, raised in it and grew up knowing father left him and his mother. Grew up knowing father asked Vykalia to kill his mother and left him to die.I know people can change and that God can work wonders. But I think some people like Frazer might be lost sheep. God tried to help him change by bringing him closer to me. For him to seee I wasn’t a bad person and that what father did have nothing to do with me.But he refused to see that. He wanted nothing but revenge, and I allowed him to get this far in his game. He followed us to fea, and that is how he manage to see my life. He must have entered Odin’s house and find out about what was going to happen in my

“Now I need you two to leave. You have to go and tell everyone what is going on when Frazer comes here. And don’t allow either Carl or Joseph to follow me here. Please,” I said, walking to take a sit.“Carl wanted to see you. And him finding out you are going through a lot and he is not here will hurt him. But we will keep him away from you,” Roland spoke.“You know him very well. But what he said. He doesn’t even listen to us. What makes you think he will listen to us when it involves his second father,” she said and smiled.“Well, at least delay his coming. I won’t be here the time he will come. You need to be upstairs. The time you hear my signal, I need you to leave. Immediately,” I told them.They just nodded and stood up. “Please be careful with what you say or tell him. Frazer is powerful. I have seen him in action and I have talked to Roland about how his power sense is stronger with each passing day. He has been preparing for this,” she spoke.“I will be fine, guys. Now will
