Benny walked in, Luna's clothes in his hand, packaged in one of the many designer bags they had at home. She'd been staying in an empty room since her mother's hospitalisation, refusing to go home.“Thank you Benny”She took the clothes from him, not wanting to make eye contact. But Benny held her shoulders and turned her to face him.“What is it? Look at your eyes, they're swollen”“I'm fine. I'm just a little bit worried about mum”Benny pulled her into a hug and she let her tears flow freely onto his shirt.“It's going to be okay”, he said, his hands on her head, soothing it smoothly. Just then Marcos walked in on them. He knocked on the open door.Luna lifted her head. “Marco”, she walked over to hug him as Benny let go.Marco looked at Benny, not hugging Luna back. Call him insecure or whatever, he didn't like what he saw.Benny, seeing it in his eyes and demeanour, decided to give them space.“I'll be at the car, Miss Luna”“Thank you, Benny”“Hey. How was…”“What was that abou

Sofia typed away on the keyboard of her work desktop. It was 5.00 already and she wasn't even half way through the report. And she still had to sort out some files from Sasha's desk since Sasha was on leave for the now.“Your smoothie, ma”“Oh thank you, Dermian”She took a sip of the tropical fruit smoothie she had ordered. Fruits and Smooths had become her favourite smoothie shop since she discovered them a few days ago. She'd had a taste of their citrus fruit smoothie the other day at boss's house but she'd forgotten … or more like she had been too shy to ask where he had bought it from.By 6.30, she was finally done with the reports. She walked over to Asher's office to submit them. There, Asher was having a conversation with his father.“Emilio, i should have the private jet pick you and your brother up ei?”So Andrea was in town. Interesting…Asher rubbed the nape of his neck.“I didn't know, father. I wasn't even aware he was in town”Vincenzo laughed. “He must have been busy.

“Buongiorno! (Good morning) This is real estate 5, how can I help you today ma'am”“Am I speaking with Lorez?”“Luna?”“Hey Loressa. I need a favour from you”“What's up?”“I need you to find me a house, any house, in the outskirts of town”“A house? I don't know Luna, I don't think you guys could afford any of the houses here”Of course she wasn't supposed to be able to pay. She'd played the middle class girl at school.“Please … just find me something small. Maybe a little cottage”“Ok. I'll get back to you”Luna hung up and looked outside from her mum's hospital room. No sign of Benny anywhere. Her mother was to be discharged today and Benny had informed her that her father wanted them home first thing in the morning. “Over my dead body”, she had sweared inwardly. She'd made up her mind. She'd rather die than go back home.She paced up and down the ward, biting her fingers anxiously, waiting for Lorez to get back to her. Finally, she texted her the location of the place she'd foun

Varietta let out a tired yawn, the morning sunlight filtering through the curtains casting a warm glow on the room. With sluggish steps, she made her way to the open kitchen, craving some banana pancakes. And maybe some parfait. Chocolate flavoured cake parfait. Contrastingly, Sofie, as always, was engrossed at her study desk, surrounded by a sea of textbooks and notes, typing away in her metallic silver-coloured MacBook.“Why are you up so early?”, Varietta said, dragging her words. “It’s 8.30, Varietta”, Sofia said, coldly.“What time did you get up cause when I got up to pee at 5.00, you weren't even in bed”Sofie didn't answer.She went over to her cousin's desk and closed her MacBook.She gave her cousin a death stare.“Vari!”“You, my dear cugina, need a break”“No, I don't. What I need is to finish sorting out these files”Sofia picked up a pile of papers and positioned them on one edge of the desk. Varietta picked one paper up, uninterested in its content, for sale of someth

Sofia trembled all over as she sat on the dining table at her boss's mansion. Asher had taken them in to live in his secret mansion when he heard what happened. He still had to drug them to get there though because he just couldn't risk it.Sofia clutched her head, her fingers entwined in disarrayed strands of hair as she struggled to regain composure, trying to calm down but too knocked back by what had just happened. The fact that someone could actually want her life weakened her. Even worse, she had almost lost Varietta today. The tremors of fear continued to ripple through her and soon she couldn't help it. Asher stood in the dining room also making some rounds of phone calls. He paced up and down, his hands in his joggers.“Yes.”. “Yeah”. “Send anything they were able to salvage”He hung up the last one and turned to Sofia.“Hey, are you good?”How could she be good? Sofia continued to hug herself, rocking back and forth. She let herself slide off the chair, breathing in and o

An oppressive hush enveloped the room like a shroud, a frightening kind of silence. Wisps of smoke diffused languidly, weaving through the dimly lit living room, their tendrils ascending towards the oppressive silence that clung to the air. Paolo, his gaze obscured by the haze, exhaled, sending out more wisps of smoke, the cigarette dangling from his fingers like an extension of his brooding demeanor. A palpable tension lingered. Paolo, seated on his couch, stared lethally at his kneeling staff lined up before him.He stood up suddenly, putting out his cigarette on the ashtray by his side. He rubbed his moustache slowly and the room was caught up in tension.“I have looked all over”.. he said, pausing momentarily. He looked at his staff.“I have looked all over for my wife and my Godforsaken daughter! I have searched every inch of this town. No one has claimed to even as much as to have sighted any of them.”He walked back and forth, taking each step slowly. He held up a small disk ta

Sofia sat, legs crossed inwardly in the bed. She waited for the network to return, quite bored already of the rolling symbol. Sooner enough, the connection returned."Hey mamma"Her mother smiled slowly, a gesture that warmed her daughter's heart."Hey, Darling, how are you?""I'm fine. How are you feeling today? ""I'm ok. Getting better". Her mother's voice came out weak and hoarse but Sofia was grateful that she'd regained consciousness and could even say a few words now. Sofie managed to smile, fighting to hide her worried look.“So when are you coming to visit darling? Nobody really comes around since Vari left.”Sofia felt her heart break. Once again, she was neglecting her mother. Too focused on work. Too scared of the future. Like she couldn't risk it to slack for a moment. And now not only was she busy but her life was in potential danger."Aren't you supposed to be at work, dear?"Sofia scratched the back of her head softly."Well...""Is everything alright?""Of course mum

Luna poured the hot water over her custard mixture, carefully. She stirred it, holding her breath, praying that it thickened thickly. “Ahhh…”, Luna breathed out in relief. She added the milk from the jug and mixed it in the bowl evenly. Placing some cornetto by the side, she set up the plates. Her mother sat on the verandah, listening to the early chirping of the birds.Isabella had helped herself onto a normal chair in the morning which meant she was recovering fast. The pain on her side still hurt though, but it was healing fast and she didn't even feel the need to take the pain killers. Isabella closed her eyes, taking the beautiful natural scenery before her, the serenity of it all, the calmness it provided to her spirit. Not once, in her over ten years of marriage, had she experienced such rare tranquillity. She'd needed a therapist to give her only a temporary glimpse of this. It was a feeling she hardly ever dreamed of.The creaking sound of the opening of their front door
