"She came to study as I was about to head out to your place. She said I had been in the study and asked if everything was okay. I said yes and said that my meal was ready. I didn't even allow her to finish her statement when I said I was going to eat. When I got back, I just left without giving her a kiss or a hug.Calvin was really pissed with him for doing that."Mehn, you shouldn't have done that; if she didn't get you offended, then why did you do that? I think you need to head home right away and apologize to her.Henry realized he was wrong and headed straight home. The very emotional Vivian was already lying on the couch crying; it reminded her of how Marcel made her cry. Henry arrived home and saw her crying. He stood restless, not even knowing where to start. He gathered himself together and walked slowly to her as he squatted down and laid on her lap."Babe, I am sorry. I never meant to speak to you like that. I just had a lot in my head, and I just needed to clear it up. I
His hand was shaky as he tried to reach out for her hand. She made it easy for him to hold her by bringing her hand closer to hold him. His voice was very low as he spoke to her."Vivian, she could barely hear him; she strained her ears and listened to every word that came out of his mouth so she could hear and understand clearly."Vivian, I am so proud of the woman you've become. You are strong and wise. I want you to never forget that I love you. We've truly been through a lot together. I remember when you were a little girl. I took you to the ice cream shop, and it began to rain. 'Daddy, I am cold. With your little voice, I took off my new coat and covered you with it, and you slept off on my chest. You slept till the rain was over'. I pray I get strong again so I can walk with my grandson and also take him to the ice cream shop, just as I did with his mom. I love y'all, and I want your mom to be strong. I want her to know I love her so much. I want Darwin to become the man I have
To take the corpse to the morgue. Vivian tried to stop them from taking him away from her. The pain of seeing him taken away from her filled her heart.Her heart was literally bleeding, broken, and shattered. She felt pain again, but this time it was worse than what she felt when Marcel hurt her and she lost baby Elina.Weeks went by, and they were ready for the burial. Henry called Keren and Calvin. They needed friends and family around them now.The committal service typically took place at the graveside of her dad.Everyone came out to scatter soil and throw flowers into the grave.Each one of them came out to say their last words to him. Calvin and Keren said theirs was short and brief.Vivian, who was broken and wished she could bring her dad back to the living, said heart-piercing words to her dad, who was lying dead in his grave."Dad, I didn't think this would be the end of us being together. I thought we were going to create more adventures together, and it would have been mo
Vivian's mother came to speak to her husband, and she felt like going with him. It was also going to affect her health; seeing her husband beneath the ground made her feel like she had no need to live."Thomas I still don't know how I can continue living without you. Everything reminds me of you and makes me feel connected to you. I will cherish you forever. You are never out of heart or thought you were gone, but I can still see your face, hear your laughter, and feel your touch. I shall always love you. Although you are no longer with me in life, I still feel your love. I will honour our life together by focusing on the joy we shared. I never wanted to be without you, but this has become my reality. It seems life has just decided to frown on me. My life without you seems almost impossible, but I know that even death didn't end our love. When we meet again, I will hold you in my arms and never let you go. Your death left a gaping hole in my life that I filled with the love we shared.
It was a really heart-aching time for the family. They all needed each other at that moment.Calvin, who wanted to start planning his wedding with the love of his life, Keren, had to put it on hold. It was a teary moment for them all, especially Vivian and her mom.Days turned into weeks, and they were still like that; no one seemed to have tried to move on. Although Henry and Calvin tried to man up, Vivian had not called her nanny to hear from her son, Mateo, and it didn't get to her.One of the days she entered her father's room, she was so emotional that she was turning around and looking everywhere. She grew up with her dad in the house, and it brought back memories of her childhood with him. She had a happy and sad experience in the house.The happy moments were the times when her dad would play with her in the merry-go-round and give her so much chocolate; he always gave her whatever she'd asked for. The sad experience was when she got pregnant and was thrown out of the house. A
It was Keren's voice.They both rushed to the sitting room, only to find Vivian's mom on the floor with Keren trying to carry her up. A lot was already going through Vivian's mind.Henry had to call the ambulance right away. They arrived at the hospital, and she was taken into the room. They all stood out and waited for the doctor to come out. Vivian's heart was pounding so fast. Darwin came immediately, and he heard what happened to his mom.The doctor slowly walked towards them and stood before them, staring at them without uttering a single word to them."Doctor! How is my mom? Vivian asked in a loud voice.He kept his silence. He stared at her without uttering a word."Doc, I said how the f**k is my mom. She was beginning to lose it."She's. His words scattered as he could barely talk; he had to put himself together before talking; he knew it was going to be hard for Vivian."She suffered a cardiac arrest; we did all we could to help her, but we couldn't. I am sorry we lost her.V
It was Henry who pulled the door open.Although she didn't turn her neck to see who it was, her mind was already made up.She put the drugs inside her mouth but could not swallow them because it was more; she was about to pour the mixtures inside her mouth when Henry held her hand and pulled it out of her hand.He removed the drugs she had poured into her mouth.She struggled to take her stuff back but took the cup and the bottle away.Her temperature became high, and she began to vomit the drinks she had taken earlier, which had started to react with her body.Henry carried her to the bathroom in her dad's room; he had a bathtub filled with cold water. When it was full, he took her inside and made sure the cold water really got into her body. He also poured it on her head.After 30 minutes of keeping her inside the water, he brought her out, dried her body up with her mom's towel, and wore her mom's most loved pyjamas. He wanted them to go back to their room to sleep, but Vivian refu
Her heart was so heavy.She fell into depression; most times she sat and saw her parents, and when she tried to touch them, they vanished into thin air. It seemed like it was an illusion.Days went by, and Vivian refused to eat, nor did she drink. Henry prepared her best meal, but she refused to eat. The deaths of her parents were a real torture for her. It began to diminish her mental health, so she started acting like a psychopath.Henry tried to convince her to go to a therapist, but she refused; that wasn't what she needed; the only thing she wanted was her parents back.She'd wake up in the morning and not shower, nor would she brush her teeth; she'd walk around the compound and touch every single plant her mom had planted in the garden. She remembered that when she was five years old, her mom would take her to the garden and tell her to help her cultivate the plants while she pulled out the weeds; they'd shape up the flowers afterwards, remembering that it left a one-sided smile
