"Next door?" I asked confused.

"Well I and Diego would be on our way. He has an exam to write today." My mom stood up.

"Bye and goodluck Diego." I said and they all left including my dad.

"Bye son and take care."

"Did she say her name or leave a message?" I asked.

"No sir." She dropped the cupcakes on the table.

"Aha! There's a note sir. Welcome to our neighborhood from Miss Rosa Parks." She read.

"My wife sent this?" I asked myself.

Rosa looked at me clueless.

"How could she? Is she already thinking of marrying another person? Does she go in blind dates behind my back? Is this the reason she isn't always at home? Miss Rosa Parks?" All these questions flooded my mind and my head began to ache.

"Was it a female who brought it?" I asked.

"Yes sir." Diana answered.

i was disappointed. My wife,sending gifts to another man.

"Maybe she just did to welcome him." I said to myself just to stay positive but I couldn't.

I answered."I'll give you girls the gist later before he casts an evil spell on my daughter." My mother in law yelled. "Let's discuss another topic then. Any company you're eyeing for a contract?" The woman wearing a blouse asked."Yes. The Lionel corporation." She answered and everyone gasped."We all have been trying for years and we've always been rejected? What makes you think they'll give you?" The woman in black gown asked. "I'll use Rosa to get why I want."

    "They said they are the Parks sir." Diana said and I was shocked."Why are they here? What are they planning now?" I asked myself."Should I let them in sir?" Diana asked."No! Tell them to book a proper appointment." I ordered and Diana went outside to deliver my message. I heard some noises and rumbles before it quiet down and Diana came back inside."What happened?" I asked."They were creating a scene so I called security sir." Diana said."Even the universe wants revenge." I said to myself. "Sir. You have a meeting with the board in the next thirty minutes."

    I tried washing them but the stains wouldn't come off. I couldn't even bring out all the water the duvet had swallowed.I carried them downstairs to spread. I ran upstairs so my mother in law and Luara won't see me. Some minutes later,Laura barged into my room."You think you are smart." She said.I didn't know if it was a question or a statement. I just stared at her brown buldging eyes."The duvet. Did you wash them?" She asked."I wash...""Yes or no." She yelled,demanding a fast answer."Yes I did." I swallowed a huge lump of guilt."Then why are there still stains on them? Before I count to three,go downstairs and rewash them." She barked and I ran downstairs immediately. I was tired and exhausted. I couldn't feel my arms anymore. I washed them throughly and spread them. "Good." She commented and I flinched. I didn't know she was behind me."Now come to the living room. You have some work to do." She ordered and I followed behind her. "Clean this up." She ordered.Her kids had

    "How can you say that?" I asked. My eyes were already red due to stress and headache."I said you should lick it. Don't make me repeat myself." He ordered. "I'm sorry I can't do this." I stood up."Then should I call the police and get you arrested for stealing and abuse? You know I can do this." An evil smirk appeared on his face. I swallowed my pride and bent down to lick it."Good dog." He said and he clicked his phone."You got that on video?" My mother in law asked."Yes I did." He answered."Send that to me. It would be fun to post on my social media platform." My mother in law gestured as she handed her phone to Peter. "Don't post it please. it would be humiliating ma'am. I'll do anything just don't post it." I knelt on the floor,with my hand clasped together,begging."I won't post it if you promise to abide by my rules and do whatever I ask you to do."

    I adjusted my chair and settled well."Sir it's five already." Diana alerted and I woke up."It's five?" I yawned loudly."Yes sir." She answered."That means I slept for six hours. Why didn't you wake me? I've missed lots of appointments." I said."I cancelled them sir. You needed lots of rest." She said and I smiled at her."Thanks a lot Diana. Thank you." I said and she carried my brief case and the groceries she bought from the market and we went into the elevator.

I have some things to settle in the office. Mom please take care of him." She said and kissed her mother's cheeks then kissed my checks before she finally left.My mother in law made a disgusting face as if she has smelt something bad."Count yourself lucky. I found the money in my drawer." She said as she waved the dollar bills in front of me."Let's go home. There's no one to do the dishes." She faked a smile."Be considerate ma. I'm on the bed dying and all you can think of is who would do the dishes." I said."Do you want me to hit you before you brain resets again?"

    My dad slapped my stepmother. The sound her face made when my dad slapped her face echoed in the room. I was shocked and I stood up immediately."How dare you do that to my son?" My dad grunted. His eyes turned red,full of rage and anger. "How dare you slap me?" My step mother raised her hand to slap my father but I held her hand quickly. She released her hand and slapped me instead. My dad wanted to hit her again but I stopped in just in time. "It's not worth it dad." I said."She's spoilt. I need to teach her some lessons. Nobody lays hands on a Lionel." My dad said through gritted teeth. "You slapped me Ray. Just be because of this worthless boy." She cried. This time I felt she was pained throughly. Tears flowed down her eyes without caution. "He is my son." My dad yelled "And he is not worthless." "I promise you, no I swear with my life,you'd cry over him. I promise." She took a knife on the table and cut her finger.

"Nothing much happen to her." I said."I know and I regret pushing her. It was a mistake." He bit his upper lip.Few minutes later,the doctor came to meet us."Are you her husband sir?" He asked and my dad nodded."Let's talk privately."I held my dad's hand."You talk here. I'm her daughter and he was the one who caused this in the first place." I glared at him."Shut it Rosa!

I yelled back throwing my hands in the air dramatically."I was just joking. It was just a threat. Why would I kidnap Gabriel? What use would it be for me?" She dropped her spoon."Son! That accusation is just too much. Have you reported to the police?" I eyed him and he cleared his throat."I know you'll always support her. You've been blinded by her. I'll leave and I'm going straight to the station. If I find out she has a hand in this,I'll make sure she rots in jail." I said and was about to leave when my father held my arm."And if she's not guilty what would you do? I've told you to stop accusing her for whatever thing that happens to you.

We've even beaten each other once.He placed his hand on my shoulder."Hey bro." He said and started walking out of the hospital. "What's going on? Where are we headed?" I asked but he smiled.I should tell you but Alice would kill me if I utter a single word."I've told Alice I'm no longer interested in this relationship. Why would she try to surprise me?" I yelled."Just calm down. I know my family has hurt you in so many ways. Just take this as a sorry." He smiled and opened the car for me.

    ***Rosa's pov***Watching mom try to make dad fall in with with her again was so annoying to watching. It made me cringe whenever she tried to seduce him. When I say seduce,I mean her using old stupid tricks like throwing the remote on the floor and bending to pick it while wearing a short seductive dress,I mean that's so disgusting considering they are your parent."Just get the fuck away from me. I'm trying to watch tv." My dad yelled as he left the living room."Wait up Daniel. I know you want this. Don't be shy." Mom said and she ran towards him.This is so embarrassing.
