The evening sun shone vigorously which was a bit strange as it was almost winter. Everyone had expected it to snow that day and they had dressed warmly to be prepared for the cold but they ended up taking off their jackets and coats due to the unexpected heat.The same went for Doris who had worn a fluffy thick coat, head warmer, gloves and boots but she was left with no choice than to take them all off while she was at work.She met with Nathan after working hours and was not so surprised to see him without his body warmers. "Just as I expected." She smiled."I guess our weather forecasters have a lot of explaining to do.""Yeah." She replied with a chuckle. "Thanks for coming with me today.""You are my wife! Do you really have to thank your husband for going out with you?""I know but still, I'm grateful. It means a lot to me because I feel really anxious about seeing Sam today." She said with a nervous smile on her face.Nwthan stopped in his steps and she stopped too. He held her
The sound of Camille's alarm clock rang vigorously and she covered her ears with a pillow, trying to block out the sound. "Is it morning already?" She groaned as she tossed and turned in bed.Finally giving in to the clock, she sat up in bed still feeling sleepy but managed to stretch her hand towards the alarm and turned it off. "Hmm." She whimpered like a little puppy as the sun reflected on her face through the little space the curtain allowed. "What a night!" She groaned as she struggled to get out of bed.Finally, she got out of bed and went straight to bathroom. She lazily picked up her toothbrush and slowly applied her paste on her brush then raised it to her mouth, slowly and sluggishly, she raised the brush up and down on her teeth like a child who didn't want to brush.After brushing and bathing, she changed into a baggy pant and an armless top. She went down the stairs of her giant mansion and went into the kitchen to prepare herself a cup of coffee."Good morning Madam Sah
On a bright Saturday afternoon, Nathan had decided to work from home on his laptop, trying to get more rest from all the uncharted events that had taken place. "Some peace and quiet." Nathan sighed as he expressed. He and Doris had spent the whole morning together in their bedroom but she had to leave and help out her friend, Betty, prepare for a birthday surprise for one of her children and Doris decided to take Williams with her.With a giant cup of coffee and some delicious scones, Nathan felt as relaxed as a sloth. He sipped from his cup and a relaxed sigh escaped his mouth."Knock! knock! knock!" Ronnie Anne said as she knocked on his room door. Before he could answer, the door clicked open and she walked in with a tray of baked goodies and a plastered smile on her face. "Uh… come in?" The large smile on her face or the stack of baked items weren't the only thing that caught Nathan's attention, she had on a white bogus top with her underwear and that was it. Sure the top was lo
It was a quiet morning in the home of the Anakin's. Aside from the gibberish uttered by Williams as he played with his food, the only audible noise was the sound of their fork against their plates as they ate.Nathan was still feeling angry that his wife didn't take his words over Ronnie Anne's, Doris was still pondering on Nathan's story over Ronnie Anne and Ronnie Anne herself was still very furious but tried her best not to let it show.Doris and Nathan reached for the table salt at the same time but Nathan immediately pulled away the instant their hand made contact. "Did you need the salt?" She asked as she passed the salt to him."No nevermind." He shook his head negatively. "I'm done anyway." He picked up his plate and got on his feet, without hesitation, started towards the kitchen."We have to decorate the place before the guests arrive!" Doris said as she got up as well but remained in the same spot."I know, I just need some air… I'll only be five minutes.""But–" He picked
Amongst the busy crowd that passed by like a breeze, a particular face stood stagnant in its position and stared at them. With her head tilted to the side, Ronnie Anne stared at them with an untranslatable expression. Within the blink of an eye, she disappeared amidst the crowd."You think…. Come on!" Nathan pulled Camille by the wrist and began to dash down the road, pushing past the road occupants.As they arrived at his place, almost breathless, Nathan ran up the stairs to check on his wife and son.He pushed open the door to his matrimonial room and found Doris sat on the bed with an expression that portrayed worry.She raised her head to find Nathan at the doorstep, panting like he had just ran a marathon, "what's wrong?" She asked in shock. Before she could get on her feet, Nathan ran towards her then went on his knees right in front of her. "What happened Nathan!" She yelled out as fear and curiosity engulfed her.Without uttering any words, he pulled her to his chest and wrapp
The loud wailing of sirens filled the air as the town's police vehicles occupied the road, their lights flashing blue and red. A few officers stood by their car, a few by the entrance of the hospital building and a swarm of reporters with their cameras and microphones also waited outside the building, each from different companies and all of them wanted to be the first to report the sudden death of Mr Qasim Saheed, one of the most popular CEOs of Ettavile.Camille pushed through the crowd to get to the entrance of the hospital, she felt her heart beating loudly and fast as so many things went through her head as she almost suffocated amidst the crowd. The one thing that kept repeating in her head were the last words of the Doctor when he called, "your Father was murdered last night."The swarm of reporters all charge at her at the same time with their microphones towards her face, all yelling their questions at the same time."Miss Saheed! Is it true that your Father was murdered?" A
…the bombing at the south coast. And now, to report the tragic death of our well known Mr Qasim Saheed, the CEO and founder of the Saheed empire. I believe I am correct when I say we all have heard of the story of how he struggled and strived towards the wonderful empire which now has branches all over the world. At age twenty six, Mr Qasim had accomplished his goal of becoming a CEO but now his reign was cut short at just the age of fifty eight, as he was tragically murdered at the hospital where he was rumored to being treated after being poisoned at his youngest, Camille Saheed's welcome back party. Autopsy revealed he was stabbed continuously till his very last breath and…"Can you please shut it down!" Camille yelled out from the kitchen at her maid who was seriously into the news that the skinny blonde reporter had to cast."I'm so sorry ma'am." She instantly switched off the television and continued with her cleaning in the living room.It had been two weeks since the tragic de
"Nathan and I have to date each other."The air in the room suddenly became toxic and Doris began to cough plus, she was choking on her cola soda."Are you okay?" Nathan asked as he rushed to her.She inhaled sharply like she actually had been suffocated by Camille's words. "Yeah I'm good… what!" She yelled out."Shushhh!" Camille exclaimed with a finger on her lips. "We can't let your fake sister Ronnie Anne know that we are having a private important discussion here!" She whispered a little on the top of her voice."Why would we date? No, why should we date?" Nathan asked as he sat next to Doris."We need her to go after a girl she feels is a threat to her." Camille explained still in a whisper like tone. "And we all know that for some reason, maybe because she is your wife, Doris isn't a threat to her.""I know, stop saying it!" Doris exclaimed but in a soft hushed tone."But… that would make you bait." Nathan said immediately he added the maths."Yeah but—""--i'm not doing it." N
