*Lauren*••Nine Years ago••We all were clad in black, watching as the coffins were laid into the ground carefully. They were able to find a space where my parents can be buried side by side, one of the things that made it all relaxing for me. They'd lay peacefully at rest knowing they aren't far from each other. My baby brother nuzzled against my neck as I endlessly patted his back softly while Aiden wouldn't let go of the hem of my dress. He was only three years old while I was thirteen. The responsibility I felt I needed to fulfill at that time broke me. I've been left alone with two brothers, one whose need I have to cater for under every circumstance...'Let's pray for the dead' The priest announced, causing everyone to close their eyes in concentration. I did also, muttering an Amen to the few word of prayers said. As soon as they were successfully laid to rest, most of the few family members and friends that attended made their way out, departing the cementry ground quickly. N
*Lauren*A slamming head ache welcomed me the instant I gained back my consciousness, accompanied by the strong stench of antiseptic that filled my nose. I tried to move my hands to rub my throbbing eyes. I was unable to due to the stiffness my hands felt. It began to play in my memories. The inciden before the accident.'My brother. I've to find my brother' I said inaudibly.'I think she's awake' I heard an unfamiliar voice pronounce.'Where am I? Why am I finding it difficult to move my body' I questioned, my eyes still squeezed shut. I was having a difficult time in opening them.'This is a hospital, ma'am. Just relax, your husband will be here soon'. My eyebrows knitted... 'Husband?'As if on cue, I heard the door swing open. 'Lauren?'Hearing Christain's voice, the hatred I had for him started to awaken... 'What the hell are you doing around me? I told you to stay away from me' I yelled, struggling to get on my bum. 'Stay still...' he ordered, 'You can't get up now. Not in the
*Lauren*.Two Weeks LaterDarkness was a new normal now. It has become a part of me and I, a part of it. Today makes it exactly two weeks of being temporarily blind which has been a hectic, emotional exhaustive one. Thanks to Dora and Damien who are always here to help out whenever I needed one. They made me feel better to an extent. So good people. I was allowed to talk to my brother on several occasions to be assured he's doing very fine. He can walk all by himself now, gained a little more weight and looks much better. He told me all of that himself. Truth be told, I'm really grateful that Christain helped out in this situation but my ego wouldn't let me appreciate him sincerely. I rolled uneasily on the bed, uncomfortable at my every position. Will I really be able to see after one week and maybe, get justice for myself. Christain had tried to collect information about the man that attacked me in the vehicle, unfortunately for us, I was unable to give a perfect description of h
*Christain*My heart skipped a bit when I saw her lying on the bed helplessly. She had a blank stare, her facial features showed how much oblivious she is of her surroundings. I stealthily walked further into the room then placed the plates of pancakes on the bed side table. She made a twitch in reaction to the sound.'Damien? Is that you?' she asked, her hands carefully searching around to feel. She furrowed her brows when I said nothing.'Dora?' she tried again.No response.She sat up, leaned her back on the bed frame. 'Are you mad at me for not eating the pancakes?' she sounded sincerely sorry. 'I wanted to but I can't seem to find the appetite. I'm sorry for disappointing you' she added.Her aura, movements, atmosphere was enough for me to sense how distressed she is at her current situation. I denied myself the press to feel sorry for her. She wouldn't want that, especially from me..Silence manifested in the room. The only thing heard was the sound of each other's breathing. I
*Christain*After fighting relentlessly, she gave up. I really wasn't willing to let her go. Not now. I placed her on her feet, pulled up her hair into a ponytail.'You'll have to sit in the bath tub'She rolled her eye balls. 'I told you before, I'm not ready to do this. I want to be left alone' I sighed audibly. 'I almost forgot how stubborn you are'.I swept her off her feet, positioned her well into the tub. I pulled off my shirt, hung it on the small hanger on the bathroom wall. I proceeded to ask if she's in for pulling her dress also to prevent it from getting wet. As expected she declined. I turned on the water heater and let the tap run. Certain enough her hair was wet enough, I grabbed the shampoo, poured quite an amount on my palm then rubbed it into her hair. My mind drifted, memories made way into my head as I continued the process. I always watched my mum do this to her hair when I was still a toddler. She would let me hold the shampoo and allow me pour the quantity she
*Christian*I returned the kiss energetically while I savored every bit of her full, soft lips on mine. My right hand held down my throbbing genitals while my left hand subsequently, made its way to my left boob nipple, caressing it. She bit my lips to hold back the moan that fought to escape her lips. I groaned at how pleasurable it felt, also adding my index finger to pinch the tip of her nipples. She arched her back. I stopped kissing her, watched her face as I continued playing my fingers around her pink, hard nips. Her eyes were closer, her head thrown back, giving me another access to her perfect neckline. I worked again, trailing little kisses on it. This excitement.. it's one I haven't felt in such a long time. Her fingers grabbed a fistful of my hair, encouraging me to do more to her body. Gosh.. this feels so good.Passionately, I kissed my way all the way down to her boobs, used my tongue to play around them till I enclosed my mouth on her right nips.'oh my god... christi
**Lauren**I decided to go to the dining room for my meal later that evening with Damien's help.'Good gracious, Laura. You finally decided to eat dinner together tonight' she commented.'Well, I think that's a good idea except for the fact that Christain is gone. He would have loved to see her here' Damien replied.I gently settled on my seat, somewhat disappointed Christain is absent. I had expected him to be here, I quickly brushed the unhealthy feeling aside.'What are we having for dinner, tonight?' I asked.'Some Basmati rice, Cole slaw and chicken wings.' she responded. The aroma hit my nose right after. It was pleasant enough.'How is it possible you know how to cook this well? If you don't mind, I'll like to take some lessons from you''I definitely do not mind, Lauren. Once you're ready. I'll always be here' she grinned, metals also clanking as the dropped on my plate.'Thank you...'Everyone finished the meal at the same time. Dora was left to do the dishes while Damien bro
****Christain****Do you realize the gravity of the action you're about to take, Christain' Dora queried for the sixth time in two minutes.'I know, Dora. It's going to be very temporary because Right now, I do not have an alternative.''Send your men there.''I already tried that. She chased them away, threatening to call the cops if they don't leave her space. Audrey is hell bent on seeing the end of me and because he can't get to me, directly. He's trying to use the people I care about to get to me. This is the only safe place I know. Where I'm assured they'd get the appropriate protection. I'm also sending Aiden here once he's back on his feet' I pronounced.'Sending Aiden here isn't a bad idea.. it'll make Lauren stick her ass to this place but Tiffany... That girl has a huge crush on you, Christain, Laura is someone you've had something with. Don't you think hatred will ensue between the two?'.I ran my hands through my hair, rethinking my decision again.... 'I can't do anything
