“Mr. Mwansa, we need to find those people. We can’t just leave them after they kidnapped one of the richest people in the city. Try to remember anything about them sir, please,” a police officer asked with his note book in his hands. Trevor thought about everything for a while, but nothing. All he could remember was that the man was tall and well built. Anything other than that he didn’t know. And that the man seemed to have been forced to do what he was doing. He didn’t remember anything else about the people that kidnapped his wife. “I have already told you what I know about those people. I didn’t see them clearly. I went there during the night and that too in the forest. The only source of light there was the moon. I’m sorry, but there is nothing I remember,” he said, holding Eliza’s hand even more tightly. “And you miss,” he said, turning to look at Eliza. “Did you ever see the people that kidnapped you? Your husband speaks of a woman? But when we talked earlier you didn’t men
“What are you planning to do Moses? It has been weeks and you haven’t said anything about what happened. We can’t just let them get away with this because you can’t think straight. What should we do?” She asked as she walked to sit next to him. “I love you and I don’t want to force you to do things. But I’m just willing to do more for my kids. They can’t come into this world without us doing something about their lives. We can’t even take care of ourselves, how will we take care of our kids? You wanted one, didn't you?” She asked, playing with his hands. He just smiled at her and looked down again. He didn’t know what to do or say. He thought about what would happen but nothing came to him. He knew he had to do something about this. He knew if he didn’t act smart and listen to his wife it won’t be things at his place. He loved her and wanted to do what she told him. But what could he do about what happened? He didn’t want to do something that would upset his mother. His mother neve
“Finally, you are leaving this place brother-in-law,” Mateo said as he helped Trevor out of bed. “You know, I knew you were going to be fine. I knew she was stressed for no reason. I know how stubborn you can be. You made our lives hell with grandfather. And that's all because of your stubbornness, brother,” he said, smiling at his sister. “See, your husband is fine.” They just smiled at him as well. He was happy to see that Mateo was here to help. Something about him being here just made things that were going through his head easier for him. And that he had someone in Eliza’s family might be good.But also because he wanted to prove to himself that none of them were involved in his wife’s kidnapping. That was all he wanted and he was happy to find out none of his family members were involved. But again, thinking about everything and what kind of people his in-laws are, they can do anything for money and pretend as if nothing bad happened. But kidnapping the daughter of the family
She wanted him to remain outside because she knew what her mother and grandmother felt about him. But again, she might need him inside. He might be the person she needed to keep her company and make things make sense. She hoped. They walked into the elevator in silence and it went up. He wanted to open up, he wanted to tell her why exactly he wanted to come and talk to her mother and grandmother so badly. But again, he didn’t want to ruin this. And besides, he wasn’t even sure of what he was thinking might have happened and might be going on. But he just wanted to conform and get them out of the picture. Make sure they were not involved in any of this. Or else everything will be ruined for him and her. They got out of the elevator and walked to the room in total silence. “Again, are you sure about what you are doing? You don’t have to do this, Trevor. Don’t be stupid. You can wait for me outside or anywhere I can find you. I know them and it’s better if I talk to them alone,” she
“What are you doing here, Eliza? And with him,” her mother said glaring at Trevor. “You know how we feel about him. And mother is not feeling too well, him being here will only worsen her condition. I would leave if I were you,” she added and took her seat. Eliza just sighed as she looked at Trevor then walked over to sit next to her mother, “I’m fine thank you and how are you, mother,” she said, smiling at her for good measure. She never wanted what happened to them to happen. But things just happened and there was nothing she could have done about it. She tried helping them but they made things worse for themselves. Even Trevor didn’t want to chase them out of his house, but he had no choice after what they did to him. They were not his favorite people in the world, but for the fact that they were his wife’s family and that Mr. Noah wouldn’t have liked for his family to be elsewhere, he wanted to help them. But fate happened. “Mother I will be having your grandchild for the lov
The whole thing seemed way too good to be true. Not that the news all together was okay, but the fact of him finding out the person that kidnapped his wife. Bad that too, the person he has been telling them was not good.He turned to look at his wife, and she was lost in thoughts. He just rested his hands on her things and smiled at her as he drove them back home again.“Trevor, what if mother is right about Alexander? He is still my brother, and I was the one who brought him to you guys,” she said.He just kept his smile on for good measure, “Elizabeth, you don’t have to worry about that. You have just been through some major trauma and I don’t want you to start worrying about your half brother. Yes, he is your brother, but that will not change the fact that he tried to kill you,” he pauses as he takes a breath. “Listen, if it turns out it’s him, I will take care of it. You just worry about being calm for that baby. We do want that baby to be safe innit?” He said,She sighed, “alrigh
The place was perfectly lit. People moving up and down. Some stood at their tables as they sipped on their wines. Other talked about something that he didn’t even understand. He took wine glasses from the tables and served them. Trying to not give them a reason to talk about him or shout at him.But no matter what he did, Trevor was always shouted at. Because of one thing or the other.“No one likes him. The only one that was nice to him was the grandfather. Mr. Noah,” a woman spoke as he took the wineglasses. Thinking he was not listening to their conversation.“It’s sad, really. They have been mistreating the man all the time. But that is what he gets for thinking he can get rich by marrying into this family,” her friend spoke.He just sighed and walked away. Beating down his anger and pain. Just because he had nowhere to go, he had to endure everything they said to him. Whatever they threw at him, he endured through it all.He was an orphan that used to leave in the streets. Until
He walked to the mansion, thinking things might change tonight. That grandmother will start looking at him the way her husband used to look at him. Even if it brings a bit impact, that will be okay with him.But that was all nothing but helpless hopes. He walked into the mansion, and for sure, people had left. But the places were messed. Wine grasses everywhere you look on the table and wine bottles. Plates of food and all kinds of things that needed to be cleaned.He sighed as he walked where everyone stood around grandmother. Giving her their second presents. He walked with his little box behind.Then he stopped as everyone notices him. Moving aside for grandmother to look at him. He smiled at the woman, but she was just glaring at him.“I. G-got you a-something,” he stammered as he walked closer. All of them looking at him like he was food that just arrived at the table but you didn’t order it.“What could you possibly get that will match to what I got her or what others here got f
