“Mark?." I said knocking on the door. But there was no response. " Mark?. “ I said more louder." Yes?. “He said from inside." It's me Lisa. “" I'll be there. “ He said and then I waited for him. He opened the door. And then a very beautiful look crossed his face. His eyes held emotions." Wow, Lisandré, you look very beautiful. “ He said to me. For the first time in a long time, he used my name, my full name. " Thank you, you don't look bad yourself. “ I told him." Wow. Take my hand. “ He said stretching out his and and I took it." We already have locations. Make sure you pick the one you like, it's going to be signed under your name. And you'll be stuck with it until you can get a chance to change it up. “ He said it like a wealthy man... He said and I quote “you'll be stuck with it until you can get a chance to change it up." He said it as if he was talking about a pair of shoes or toothpaste... This was a house and he was talking about choosing the one I like, can you ima

“Why don't we go on a date?." Mark asked me." A date. Are you asking me out on a date?. ““Yes."“Okay."“I have a location in mind or if you want to pick you can..."“Let's go to wherever you want." “Okay."By the time we got to the restaurant. The sun was going down. I felt boujee. I was waking with Mark... Everybody was staring... I was beautiful. I felt like a princess, I felt like a sweetheart again. I would never let this go. I was sitting facing him. “What's your favorite colour?." He asked me.“Maroon." I told him. “The colour of your eyes." He said smiling." Technically, yes. “ I said and I laughed." That's a beautiful colour, it's beautiful to stare at. its something I'd want to see when I wake up. “ To be honest. Mark was lovely.

He said.“The food tastes amazing. I love

I climbed down from my bed. The sleep wasn't coming and I had to stop forcing my self. I could as well go to visit that person causing the sleeplessness. The lights turned off when I left my room.I remember one time I had slept all alone at night. I was only ten when it happened. My mum had gone on a trip and the servants had gone to their own homes. I had heard stories of demons and how they would sleep under the beds of children, waiting till it was night time. And then they would eat the kids alive and then steal their screams, I didn't want to be eaten alive and I didn't want any monster to steal my scream, so I didn't make a single sound and I had to protect myself.... I layed under the blanket that night till God knows when, literally through out the night. And when I would peek to see if it was day time already, the room would be as if it was clothed with darkness and the chairs would morph into monsters and the tables into big fat demons. But I had slept when the sun

Thirteen days after.I had gone to bed by nine I was thinking of how tomorrow would be. I already got my dress intact. I dropped my shoes…it was like it was my first day of school again. I went to sleep feeling anxious and excited. Eventually I fell asleep.And I had a dream. In my dream I was walking towards my old company but I wasn't going to the company. I wasn't going back to my old job. I was going to see Frank. I was dressed in mini shorts a crop top and my black stilettos. Why was I dressed like this? Was the big question. Although I looked nice, really nice, I had beautiful legs and the world needed to see it. I spotted Frank's food truck ahead and I ran towards him. I was yelling his name while running and I stopped in front of him and I said.“Frankie I'm here, look at me, I'm here, I came back."And he turned to me and he frowned and he said “Go away. I no longer find you attractive." I woke up from sleep and found out that it was morning already. Exactly 5:2

I was watching him watch the sky. His tall frame stood in front of the glass wall. I knocked but he couldn't hear me. “Good morning sir." I said. He stared at me for a short while and I said to him. “I knocked a few times, but, you weren't responding, so I just thought maybe, I should open the door." “Come in." He told me. “Thank you."“I have a few things to discuss, it's about business." I told him. “Okay." He replied. “You don't say much, do you?." I asked. Everybody knew that talking was my way of communicating. I felt uneasy when I met people that didn't talk. Rich people. “No." He simply replied. It was enough to send me running. “Oh, okay, I'll just go ahead and lay these on the table, I've mapped it all out, you can review it later, you don't look like you are ready to speak to anybody." I said to him." No, no, stay, please.“ He said. " Oh, okay.“" Let's forget business for now, tell me something.“ His eyes were beautiful, Goddammit. I remembered wha

He opened the door to my car and he dropped my phone and my purse in the passengers seat.“Stop crying, everything will be alright." He told me.“Be safe." I said to him.“You too." He told me. “Now drive away and don't come back and whenever you see Darwin, any time in the future, run, you hear me?." “Yes."“Live a beautiful life, Lisa. A happy life. Find someone that would appreciate you no matter what, that would listen to you talk even if it's three am in the morning, don't settle for less, and know that you're my sweetheart, bye bye." He said moving out and closing the door for me. I cleaned my tears and I drove out and I went home. I went home and I cried my heart out. To be honest everything sounded dangerous, things would get serious. It was evening. Mark called me that he was coming soon to the house and he came as he had promised and he showed up with a very big suit case as he had said.“Here's your money."“The both of us know that I hardly did anything."“Take

I entered into my car and I drove back to my hotel. I walked into the hotel. Before I met Mark, I couldn't afford places like this. The hotels' room fee was above my pay grade for a month that was when I was still working at my former company. I walked to the reception. The receptionist was sitting behind her desk.“Good day. I want to check in."“Okay, room what?." She asked me.“Room 369." “Okay, give me a second." She said.“Hey beautiful." I heard and my heart threw me off guard and it started to beat faster. Was that Frank. I turned to the person to see if it was Frank. But it wasn't Frank. It was a total stranger.I eyed him wearily and turned back to the receptionist.“Here are your keys." She said handing me the keys.“Thank you." I told her.“Uhm, hi." The man said to me, I turned to look at him, but i didn't give him my attention, so I walked away from him. I was entering the elevator when I noticed he was coming into the elevator too. The both of us st

“I love your clothes.""Me too, I love them. Thank you for the complement.“" You're welcome.“" You didn't tell me you were a chef.“" Oh, I'm not. Not really though. I didn't know how to cook a thing, just about eighteen months ago. It was ironical because I owned plenty of restaurants and I didn't even know how to boil pasta. So I decided toesrn and I learnt very fast, I'm a fast learner. And I decided to sell in one of my food trucks. The experience was good smd added to that, it's the place we met.““I went to your food truck. The spot we met and I saw another guy there. I swear I was so confused at first but he explained things and it was clear. He said I could never meet you, he made you sound like a kind of attractive ghost and to be honest, it got me scared and yet I kind of like decided to try out New York. And I was just in the parking lot when we met."“You came to find me…like you wanted to find me, I feel special right now, you don't want to know."" You've been going th

It was morning. I woke up a little after dawn. I went out for a run and when I got back, everybody was already up. We were in my house in New York... All of us. My mum, my little brother, my elder brother Kai, my lovely Ará and me... All of us. “Good morning." I said to my mum.“Where's Ará?." I asked nobody in particular.“She's preparing breakfast." Kai said. I headed for the kitchen.I saw here there, handling some pots.“Good morning." I said to her walking into the kitchen.“Good morning." She said Smiling. “I woke up and I didn't see you, I figured you must have gone out for a run." " I did. “" Why don't you join me in making breakfast.“" Are you sure you don't want to have a cook or maybe just a house keeper and the house keeper can employ people to come and do some stuff. ““Remember what happened with Rosé..., Remember?."

It was late afternoon already.“You're my mother..." I whispered to myself, I figured that if I wanted anybody to hear me, I had to speak louder but I couldn't find my voice. “My mother's name was Bridgette, was it her you gave... Was I the baby?." I asked her..., My mother, my real mother. Looking at her I didn't know what to say, we all didn't know what to say. We all looked ashen and spooked. I wasn't the only heir after all, I was the child of a lovely affair. Something in me spurred, gave life to light. She was my mother... I felt as if I was another person entirely, I didn't feel like my name was Darwinson Charleston Andersons.... No, I didn't feel like I had a name but I felt that I had a past a, strong past and there was a strong love that brought be to the world... Not the strange type Bridgette and Anderson had, finally I could call them by their first names... I whispered it out “Bridgette Andersons and Anderson Cooper Andersons." It sounded good to my ears.

Once again I was making lunch while Kurtis spoke to Solo. To keep my mind away from what was happening, I decided to bury myself in poems, poems that nobody had heard.'I know but I don't want to believe, that there is no such thing as love, I know it's true that love dosent exist but If believing in it is being foolish, then I want to be foolish, if being foolish is being happy, then I want to be foolish it's not everytime in your life that you have to be wise, sometimes you know what happens next, so why not close your eyes and fall blindly into love even though it comes with heartbreak(s), at least you were once happy, at least you were once foolish. ''I have the mind of a ninety year old but the heart of a three year old, I love desperately and I care quietly, I miss calmly and I wait patiently, I want truly and I think fastly, I think deeply, I listen, I understand truly, I judge with reasons, I'm calm, my heart is stupid, my mind is mature, I won't compare myself to a lonely fl

I woke up the next morning to find the bed empty. I went to the sitting room. Solo was already dressed and he was drinking coffee.“Hey baby, why are you dressed so early?." I asked him." Mr Kurtis called. He's going to have a meeting with us today. He wants us to be there earlier today. “" Okay.... When will you be back?. “" In the afternoon. “" Good bye. “ I told him and he dropped his cup on the table." I love you sweetie, take care of Kai and yourself.“ He told me. I watched him leave.I went to the bathroom, I brushed my teeth and I had my bath. I was still dressing up when I heard the knock on the door. Did Solo leave anything in the house that he should have carried. I tied a towel around my chest. I went to the door, I undid the locks and then I turned the door open, standing there was Kurtis. He walked past me.“Jeez, Solo just left, what if you met him here."“I saw his car leave, I knew he just left, I was outside."“ For how long?." I asked him.“N

I woke up and made breakfast for Solo. While Solo was still asleep, the phone rang.“Hello." I said into the phone.“Hey baby." Kurtis's voice cut through the phone.“You called this early." I said above a whisper."I've been awake since dawn, I didn't know if would be so early, I'm sorry. ““You don't have to be, I was just worried that Solo might have picked the call." " How are you doing?. “ He asked me. “I just made breakfast... I'm good, how about you?."“I miss the hell out of you." He told me“I miss you too."“How about I come and pick you up today. My yacht is out in the ocean."“I don't know about today..." I started to say but he cut me off.“Solo is going to be done with his work soon, in two days time. I can't hold him here, surely he's going to get any contract, I can arrange that but I don't know how valid that plan would be, we literally don't have time on our hands, I've been thinking about it for so long and it's chewing me up. “" I thought about it too. “" I

I went home. As if Ana smelt it... As if she knew that I had done the abominable, she smiled a very fake smile.“Gael, you're back." She said to me. It wasn't Mrs Garcia or Miss Gael, it had changed to Gael, only Gael. But I felt good, I felt alive, I felt in love again almost reborn... I was born again. Gone was the old Gael and come was the new one. Not that they both of them had too many distinct features they didn't, they had too many in common, but this new me was the manifestation of the reborn Gael, the one that was formerly lost in being loyal... The one that had to quench her fire to fit in a type of lifestyle. “Yes, I'm back. “ I told her... My voice seemed foreign to me, it was much more bolder than the former, I was much more confident. “Hey Kai, how are you doing?." I asked Kai. “Momma." Kai said giggling. I took him from Ana.“Thank you Ana.“ I told her. She walked out of the door without saying anything. I was still in the bathroom having

The next day, after Solo had left for work. I took out those boxes, sat there in Kai's closet and I tore them. Toy train and cars that could moves with remotes... There were too many toys in the first box, too many that I wondered how Kai would play with them, all. Then in the other box were jewelries... How would I explain how I got them. I knew that I would have to come up with a new lie. If Solo asked who bought them, I would say that my colleague, Marietta gave them to Kai... She had a rich uncle no, I wouldn't say she had a rich uncle, I could say that she had a rich brother and she had a wealthy family too... And she loves Kai, should add that she also has a daughter or maybe I'll say she has a son. When Solo had come back, he had met me sitting in the living room with the two boxes on the table.“Jeez babe, what are those, the boxes are huge."“The boxes are huge aren't they... Let me tell you, come and have a sit. Do you remember Marrietta, my colleague, the funny lad

I heard the knock on the door. I wondered who it was. I was in the kitchen setting the things I would use to prepare dinner. I turned the locks, opened the door and I saw Kurtis standing there with two huge boxes standing beside him. When he saw me, he bent and he carried the both of the boxes and they seemed heavy. “Good afternoon." I said and he walked past me.“These boxes are heavier than they look." He said to me laughing. He dropped it on the table." I wasn't expecting you. “ I said to him." I know. “ He said walking to Kai's bedroom. " I was just in the office and I thought I'd come and surprise you and Kai. “ He said touching Kai's face." What's in the boxes?. “" Toys, mostly and the other things are just for you.“" For me?. “ " Yes, I picked them today myself. I'm sure you'd love them. “" Thank you, but what are they?. “ I asked him." You'll find out when you open the box. “ Kai was awake so they were playing together while I was cooking in the kitchen

“I'll be back soon." I told Ana. I turned the door and I walked out of the house. I went outside and I saw a different car, but it was black. And sitting behind the wheels was the same driver.“Hi." I said to him. He smiled at me. It didn't take long before we reached the beach. I climbed down from the car. The sun plastering on my body. The wind scattering my hair and my dress, kissing me everywhere. “Mr Kurtis will be waiting for you in the boat right there.“ The driver said pointing to a boat. It was the only boat that was there and it was big. Written on the body was 'Aqua-Marine'. I liked the name, very much. I walked to the deck and I turned around, the driver had started to drive away. This time there was no body to lead me. I saw Kurtis standing there when I was on the deck. He smiled at me. I turned to the ocean then to look at him.“Eyes like the heart of water." I told him. He laughed and stretched out his hand to me.“You look beautiful."“Than
