I AM PAINED Maven walked into the house looking like a beaten dog. Lady Victoria had just finished a freshly made meal and in her hand was a glass of chilled freshly made juice.What's with the frown? Did anyone offend you?” She asked while watching Maven match into the li ring with both shoes in her hand.“You look like you saw a ghost and I am talking to you Maven who made you so upset that you don't even want to speak with me?” Victoria became very much concerned with her daughter's new attitude.“You caused it mom. I told you I didn't want to but you forced me into it. And now look at the embarrassment you made me face in public. I am on the blogs and on every damn social media platform as the fiancee of a man who claims to be wealthy yet could afford to pay for his meal at the town's central cafe. Isn't that crazy? I bet you like the new title I have been given”. Maven sparked like a tiny ray of light in a dark room“What the heck are you talking about? I asked you to go out on

ALONEThomas went back home frustrated and angered. “She doesn't want to speak with me.” said the moment he walked into the house and saw his grandpa at the dinner table with Lucas. “You should come have a good meal before thinking about a woman who doesn't want to speak with you. I promise you son after this meal she will come back to you” Grandpa spoke with ease and poise. He had a smile on his face and continued to eat his food.“Grandpa. You think so?” Thomas asked “I know so, I have mingled with women for too long to know how they are wired. Look son? The lady loves you, know that but at this point you have to give her some time. Space out a bit and she would come looking for you.” Grandpa said forgetting that his time was different from the present days.Thomas sat down and waited for the chef to serve his food.“You look like you have seen a ghost. This woman must be really precious to you”. Lucas observed his brother with a close eye. Thomas winked and smiled at the same t

REVEALEDWhen Sabastian finished cleaning the entire hall was almost empty. He looked round the hall as sweat dripped from his neck down to his back and from his forehead to his chin. His white inner shirt soaked with sweat after the long work. He looked over at Snipper and Spider who were busy by the side of the cafe with the chess game. A bottle of Hennessy on one side along with some cookies to munch while they look out for Sabastian to finish his goddamn job.“I am done,” he said without remorse. A hint of pride and arrogance hung in his words as he spoke to them. Snipper and Spider traced their eyes to him and laughed out heavily. “You are done—what? It seems you weren't raised with some sort of respect for anyone. Huh. Maybe will teach you how to speak to other humans nicely” Sniper was about to stand from his seat when Spider asked him to sit. “Forget about the spoiled fool. He would pee pants if you take any step closer to him. Give him his keys and we don't want to see yo

CALL A DOCTOR Maven ran to her mother's room.Lady Victoria jumped out of bed. Her heart almost fell out of her mouth.‘What is the problem with you? Why are you running?Is the house on fire?”Lady Victoria asked with curiosity. Her heart was pumping so fast with the way Maven pushed the door.“I know who got me the car now”. Maven said with excitement in her tone“You do? Has he called yet? We should make dinner for him tomorrow or what do you think?”.“Thomas—”I do not want to hear that name. He is a fool and I don't want to see him here. We have a chef now and we will do with what we have. Thomas can not make one more meal in this house. I almost died from his filthy and insipid cooking. She spoke to Maven like it truly happened.Maven shrugged her shoulders “I can't remember all that but I really think Thomas got me that car mom”. She let the words fall out of her mouth. Lady Victoria cackled. Don't be a silly Maven. The same Thomas that was here? Or another Thomas. “Thomas Mi

MAVEN HAS GONE MADWhen grandma noticed Maven's absence from the meeting the next morning she knew something was wrong. “How could she abandon everything like that after everything we have Newman through to get this project done.” She scowled angrily pacing the room to and fro.“I told she is incompetent but you don't see anything wrong with her nonchalant attire”. Patrick said the words with spite. But grandma quickly shot him out like a plague threatening to enter a city with armed soldiers.“Shut your trap. You did worse in less than four months and you dare to call Maven incompetent? This was the very first time grandma would be taking sides with Maven.“I shall not have to speak about Maven in such a way”. Grandma scolded with a frown on her face. ‘I only wanted to—”“Shut it Patrick there's no need for all that. I need to find her or summon her here” Grandma Clara spoke with pain in her heart.“She giant taking my calls I called her several times to no avail”. Patrick said

SHAME ON YOUThomas looked at his wrist watch. The latest romford brand. He took a deep breath and consciously walked the spacious office back and forth.What in heaven's name is going on here? We are supposed to have a meeting with the Taylor's and none of them has shown up yet.”Thomas checked his watch again as he spoke to meet his assistant James standing behind him.“Situation report James”. He spoke in a very cold tone and scanned his facial expression with his eyes.“Well, I don't think the Taylor's would come, especially the young Ms. Taylor. I heard he has some strange illness and can not be here for the meeting”. The PA announced.“That's a big fat lie James.You can't tell me Maven is sick when I haven't gotten any signal here” Thomas spoke. “What do you mean sir? James asked him with a look of confusion in his face.“Well, it's what I was told,”James answered calmly. Thomas began to panic. His necklace blinked and he got the signal. “I think she is just stressed but she w

ANOTHER MOVE“What do we tell mom, that’s what should be on your mind at this moment Derrick. Get that rude boy out of your head. We haven’t done anything since opening and we left other stuff behind because we want to try our chances just to make our mother see how truly ‘worthy’ we are”. Patrick let the words fall out of his mouth in anger. He just cannot imagine that the boss of the Al Thani group who had asked them to come suddenly changed his mind from seeing themes planned. This was a slap to their faces.“I heard his grandson is in charge now, the boy doesn’t have respect for elders and business associates. I mean look how he just made us look like fools before his staff. I feel so ashamed to have showed up here with you in the first place.“There is never a time you want to come with me, but you would eat the money once it drops in your debt infested account “Patrick scowled and went on to slam the car door after entering the front sit. He started the car and drove out of the

I HAD TO DO IT Grandma had gone to Maven’s house the previous night to plead for her to help. Maven has not been herself since the day she found out her relationship with Thomas has been built on lies. She told grandma that Thomas was the grandson of the great Rufus Al Thani but grandma doesn’t believe her so she stopped trying to prove a point. “Grandma doesn’t know how difficult it is to face him when he is in his domineering mood.” Maven complained to her mother as she aged to get herself dressed for the meeting. “There is even no need to send them mail to inform them about my arrival. I do not need to have anything to do with Thomas for now”. She said the words with a heavy heart. “Are you sure he is the one? Remember you said you were a little bit tired when you went out with Sebastian. “I know what I saw mom and I am telling that Thomas is an Al Thani, he had the family band on his wrist and that is enough evidence’ “Well, I don’t want to believe you until I see things for

Thomas was now great and known all over the city for his good deeds.

HOME AT LAST The moment they finished the duo got up and began to walk from the VIP lounge section to the main restaurant. Suddenly Thomas paused as a sense of danger hit him. His eyes shot a glowing green light and when Maven saw it she became very terrified. “What is wrong with you Thomas?Why are your eyes glowing?”she began to panic.From all she could see, Thomas looked like a demigod. “Is everything alright? The moment she shook him violently he came back to his original self. The green glow in his eyes died down immediately. “I think someone needs my help around here”. He said unbuttoning his suit as he began to walk faster. He increased his pace so much that Maven had to run along with him. “What do you mean someone needs your help?” she asked him but he gave her deaf ears and continued without stopping to say a single word. She called his name and ran after him till they got to the hall. “Call the ambulance”. Maven heard loud voices screaming while others tried to gi

A DATE The moment Maven got home her mom had done the decorations and a cake was placed on the table with candles. ‘What’s going on here? Maven asked as she walked into the living room. Lady Victoria had a smile on her face. “Happy birthday my child”. Lady Victoria said, handing the glass of wine to Maven. ‘Mom. You did all of this for me? Awn! Thank you so much”. Maven said smiling, she took the glass from her mom and sipped from the wine. “This is good.” She then cleared her throat and clasped her hands together. “Look what we have here”.She exclaimed and rushed off to sit close to the cake. I have a wish and I want to make it. She closed her eyes and took in a deep breath for a second before blowing off the candle sticks. Lady Victoria and Abigail clapped their hands happily. “Happy birthday Ms.” Abigail said to her and handed her a small box. “You got me a gift too?’ Maven asked with her eyes watering. “Come here” she grabbed the lady and hugged her tightly.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAVEN "What agreement are you talking about mom?"Maven asked her mother. “You know about it already and Grandma here knows too. It’s long overdue and I need to get my life together. A life outside of the Taylor’s roof”. Lady Victoria was determined to get her life back at least for the rest of her days. Having a companion and someone to share her burden with. “Grandma, what do you have to say to this proposal?’ Maven asked, looking at her grandma with knowing eyes. “Mom, what exactly are they talking about? What deal do you have with Victoria? Do you have any idea Derrick?’ Patrick turned to his brother and asked him. Derrick shook his head. “I have no damn idea anything like this ever took place. “Whoa! Mom, that's pure wickedness. I thought all these while she stayed back with us because she so loved her husband and wanted to keep the legacy going. I never knew you had some contract running right under our noses” Patrick said the words without filtrating an

WE ARE SORRY Since the incident Maven has just been minding her business until Grandma’ request for dinner came through. She had always known who grandma was when it came to having dinner or lunch or even breakfast at her place. With all that has gone on she just doesn’t want to get entangled with grandma and her boys, just focusing on her job and if need be quit if another chaos comes. All that mattered to her right now was her peace of mind and sanity. Maven walked down to meet her mother in the living room. “Mom, did Grandma Clara call you?’ She asked her mother if she had her eyes glued on the TV for her favorite show. The lady shook her head repeatedly without taking her eyes off the screen. “Well, I guess we would be having dinner at grandmas’ I suggest you go get dressed.” She informed her mother. Lady Victoria looked up at Maven with a frown on her face. “I am not going to Clara’s house for no dinner” she said rudely, grabbing the remote control on the table. “Why?Sh

SENTENCED It’s been three months since Sebastian has been in and out of court. His Lawyer Bryan knows well that Sebastian would never win the case against the government and the Al Thani’s. The biggest name in the society. He had his head bowed in the cubicle when his lawyer made the last statement. The presiding judge Albert Wilmore sat on his seat with the wig hanging stylishly on his head. An old man from the North. He is presumed to be the best and sincere judge in the entire city. “Get me out of here” he whispered to his lawyer in a very soft tone. “I am trying my best. The judge is a strict one but I will see what I can do. “What do you even mean by that? I don’t need you to try, I need you to get me out. What’s there to lie and convince the court that I didn’t do it? You can’t even lie. Shame on you”. He said and just then the judge hit the gavel to maintain order. The break was over. The judge cleared his throat. “After hearing from both parties, this honorable court

LET THEM GO The moment she saw the news she knew she had to do something to save her son. She had gone to the station to plead and try to bride David but the officers wouldn’t let her do that despite the fact that they know her too well. “I need my son out of here. No one is saying anything”, she began to cry. Just then Thomas drove in. She threw her bag on the floor and rushed to meet him. “I asked you to get your lawyers ready. David is appearing in court in a few days and there is nothing anyone will do about it. I will not let him treat my wife like that all because of envy”. Thomas was still pissed at what David did. But before he could say one more word, the old woman fell on her knees and began to plead. Everyone came out and began to look in surprise that the all mighty Lady Clara Taylor could go on her knees begging a small boy like Thomas all because she wants her son to come out of prison. At this point Thomas remembered his grandma and how she had gone to her k

CROWNED The morning after the whole incident Thomas’s assistant called in. Thomas was still in bed when his phone began to ring. “It’s too early for all the calls to start coming in”. He murmured as she reached out for the phone. Seeing Greg’s name made his heart churn a little bit. “Greg, what do we have this morning?’ he asked in a greasy voice. “Sir, you have a meeting with the Lesotho group at 9am”. His phone was calm and patient. “I will try not to be late. Put everything in other”. “Yes boss! Greg answered. They spoke on the phone for a while listing Thomas’ meetings and activities for the day after which they ended the call. Thomas got out of bed grudgingly. After the whole drama for the week he doesn’t see himself getting into any meeting or sit but he had to do it for the sake of the company. The company has to go one way or the other. Just as he got the tip of his bed a knock came on his door. He turned his head to look over. He knows his grandpa or Lucas, his co

MAVEN IS DISCHARGED Lady Victoria has never been this rude to grandma but since Grandma has decided to bite the finger that feeds her then she would have to face the dance and the music she had set for herself. Thomas left the prison that instance and he headed straight to the hospital to meet Maven. On his way he had asked Grace Maven’s assistant to watch over her while they await her discharge time. He hurried and drove the car to the hospital and when he arrived at the front gate the men he kept to safeguard the yard nodded at him. They were dressed in black suits and black face Masks different from the security men who work for the hospital. He raised up using the elevator to the fourth floor where Maven was. He waved at the nurse rashly and wafted past her like spoke ready to consume a whole bush. This was the moment he wished he could kill his enemies with his powers but that would not be very necessary at this point. He is not big enough to face David and Sebastian. Rath
