Olivia's povI have never seen this side of Angelo, he seemed to hide it so well, away from anyone, away from the world. Who would know that he could smile or make a woman laugh like that?Thinking of what it was that left him so heartbroken, I can only imagine. Perhaps, it is not from heartbreak, not all pain is caused by it. If it is pain, I sure do know how that feels and I know that you never recover from something like that. "Are you home now?" I asked when he called"Yes, thank you for a pleasant evening""I should be thanking you, you came out all the way here just to see me and make sure that I was okay. So, thank you" I said with an emphasis on the "thank you""I wanted to come, it was my choice. Besides, I feel partly responsible for some of the pain you are passing through""I have told you to stop saying that. And thanks to you, I was able to get rid of some of that pain""Really? How?""You do not have to know how, just know that I appreciate it""Alright""But tell me,
Gonzalez's povI kept mute, my thoughts everywhere."And I think they are after me too. I am their next victim" he said in a voice barely above a whisper"Why would you say something like that?" I inquired knowing very well why "You know, it's just all so complicated. Everything happening quickly" he lamented "It was just like yesterday when he came to me and now, he's gone. The people who took the body, they know what I was trying to do and they will come for me" he continued "You have to stay strong and fight to the end" I was trying to encourage him and push him from such negative thoughts "I am scared and know I don't have very long now. However, I need a favor from you" "No, I am way past beyond doing favors for people now. I can't especially in these dangerous times" I dismissed, I could not get involved in this "I do not want to be involved in any of the family's mess, please," I said with emphasis "How did you know it had to do with the William's family?" He asked turni
Sylvester's pov I tried to focus at work but could not. The events of last night still played in my head. What was he trying to show me? That he had more composure than I did? Bullshit! I was going to deal with him soon, soon enough. Something about him bothered me though, there was an air of mystery around him and he seemed to know more than he appears to know. The guy I had asked for information was taking too long and I needed information now. "Devin? My office, now" I spoke into the telephone, I might need his input. "Sylvester, a word please before you say anything" Devin begged If Devin used the word "please" it must be something serious, better to hear what he had to say first "Alright, go ahead" I urged"I can promise you that it was not intentional and I still don't know how it happened" "Tell me already, what is it?" I asked again "You don't know?" He asked, wide-eyed "No, I don't" I answered"Now, tell me""Uh, the company fell back to number two" he blurted out
Anonymous pov"I have been looking for you. How long have you been standing there?""Long enough. Yes, she is a ball of a chaotic mess. But she is your ball of chaotic mess and you love her immensely. She knows you know she is a mess right now and going through some rough internal crap, but you love her just the same and as deeply as ever. You always reassure her, are always there for her, and support her. And she loves you more for it. And she trusts you even more and feels safer with you for it. You will see the thank you in the smile she gives you, the way she rests her head on your shoulder because she feels protected there, and how she lays on your chest nuzzling into the corner of your arm as you hold her so she can hear your heartbeat. See how her chaos is worth it?""Damn man, I did not know when you became a poet yourself. I knew you lived poetry, but did not notice when you became one who wrote it" I said and we laughed it off"Tell me about yours, this Eloise, and please
Natasha's povNatasha woke up to the blinding sunlight and yawned lazily. Thanks to the grace of a beautiful weekend, she felt she had been resting for a thousand years, and that she was now fit enough to take on the new working week. She got up from the bed lazily, but then felt like her tummy almost pinned her back to the bed; probably warning her to get up from bed the proper way. She stared at the bump on her belly and sighed for a while. A slight smile crept up her lips as she placed her hands on her belly, caressing her tummy. How she kept going on, she couldn't explain, but she knew his child in her is one of the driving forces that kept making her strive and work hard-hard to secure a better life for her and her child or so she imagined. Every morning, she woke up pretending she was pregnant, her love for babies became an obsession, one she wouldn't let go of soon but she wouldn't dare have a child. She placed her feet into the rubber bathroom slippers she was accustomed t
Mr. Davies's pov"Yes?" I said over the phone "Who is this?" I asked "It's Natasha, Gonzalez's wife" "Oh, Natasha, hi" "Hi" She replied, she was quiet"Is there a problem?" I asked "Yes and we need your help" "What is it?" "Gonzalez was arrested. I am guessing you have not seen the news yet" she explained "No, what did I miss?""Gonzalez is being arrested for murder" "Murder? Why? Or how rather?" I inquired "I do not know the details yet" she answered "What is the good saying?" "They wouldn't let me see him" she lamented "Why not?" "Cos he is a suspected murderer?" "That's bullshit. Look, do not worry. Just sit there give me a few minutes and I will be there as soon as I can" "Thank you" "Do not thank me yet, send me your location" I said "Will do" ****"Sir, that son of yours needs your help," I said to him "Why? What did he do this time? I thought he didn't need my help?" "Come on sir, don't be like him. He does need our help now" I begged "Let me hear it" he f
Willa's povIt felt great to be home, I am glad that uncle Adam had agreed to come because dad has been busy with his phone since we got home, he went out to speak with auntie Eloise. I am sure he misses her, he looks flushed anytime he is on the phone with her or whenever they are together. "You never told me what it felt like," uncle Adam said sighing"What what felt like?" "The... you collapsing, you know""I am sure you would rather not hear about it""I would not have asked if I did not" "It was scary, I had thought that I died when it went all dark. It started from a headache and then my head was heavy and all I remembered was waking up in the ambulance" "I am sorry you had to go through that""It is not your fault""What?""You should only say sorry when you are the cause of the problem""Oh, okay, whatever. I am just trying to offer my concerns""I know, it is scarier that I do not remember anything from when I fell to waking up in that ambulance" "I think it is better th
Taylor's povGod, these voice messages from him broke my heart, I wish he did not have to send them. It is much harder because I had believed that I would not miss him, yet I did. The other day before I left, he had said to me, "If you choose to walk away, I will not beg you to stay. Maybe you wanted that, I do not know. But I will never make you feel trapped. That is not my way."I wonder why, maybe he had a change of heart? Argh, I think like a silly little girl. The island was great, I need not look over my shoulder or be worried about running into him. I had kept my mobile phone so far away from me as I had no family that would bother to call. I just wanted to cut out from the outside world. I met this guy at a bar last week and we had a one-night stand. And I expected it to remain that way but clearly, the guy was not over the sex we had yet. He wanted to have more so he kept coming back"You know, you are beginning to grow on me," I said thoughtfully"You are too, and I love
