"Time of death, ten thirty post midnight, name of patient, Elvis Kennedy, cause of death, suicide by slitting his own wrist..."Mr Elvis' personal nurse recited his death statement out loud as tears welled up in her eyes. She would pause to blink back her tears and take a moment to breathe then continue."No, no, no!!!" Bianca exclaimed as she collapsed to the ground with her hands on her hair, almost pulling them out of their roots.His twelve year old son just stared firstly at his mother who was having a mental breakdown then at the lifeless pale looking body that laid on the bed that supposedly belonged to his father.What was going on? He asked himself, is that my daddy? Why is mom crying?Bianca was worried sick...Just a few days back, she was watching the news when she happened to come across the news channel. She decided to listen to what was new and the happenings in the city when she saw the news of a young handsome boy that was hit and the culprit being her husband.She d
The Graham's residence was silent..."How long has that girl been gone?" Mr Graham asked."She has been gone all evening! Don't you find this very very suspicious? She didn't call Charlie or anything and she is not back yet, do you think she will actually come back if it is not that she heard something?" Mrs Graham threw the question to the table."Can we please not make any assumptions yet?" Charlie said.She rose to her feet while staring at Charlie. "Just because you love her doesn't mean that she feels the same way too. Didn't you say it yourself that she likes that useless good for nothing kid? Do you really think she would not take advantage of you to prove herself and her love for that kid?" Mrs Graham's voice was starting to rise in anger. She was a woman who always liked things to go smoothly for her and sometimes... Most times, Charlie messed things up for her because of the little part in his heart that was good. Charlie opened his mouth to speak but found no words to co
The sound of the water splashing against the floor and wall suddenly came to a halt and so did Tara's footsteps. She stood still like a statue, questions began floating around in her mind and she felt like her senses were coming back.Had she not come too far to lose it all? She gave up on her first love, her happiness, the guy that brought a smile to her face, she gave up on Ivan.All for what? To get physically and sexually abused by that spoiled brat, Charlie? No, if you put it down like that then it made her feel like a fool. So she asked herself again.Why did you give up on the man that even just a glimpse of him forced your lips into a smile? That was when she finally found the right answer.It was all for money. The Graham's were on the top ten list of wealthy families in England and a greedy young woman like her would have loved to be married to the Wayne family that had been sitting on number one in not only England but in most other countries of the world and possibly, th
The room was empty aside from China's thoughts that lingered around in the room. Out of boredom, she made a decision to call Mia, her new best friend to help keep her company over the phone.China's roommate walked in and called out to her, "China, hey." "Yeah?" China responded."You have a visitor." Her roommate said."Oh Okay. I'll call you back Mia." China said before hanging up.She turned to face her roommate, "who is it?" China asked."I think it's best if you find out for yourself." She looked at her roommate confusedly, what was that look in her eyes and that tone in her voice? She turned towards the entrance of her bedroom to step out and receive the visitor when the door pushed open, making her take a few steps backwards.Her eyes widened as she stared at the August visitor that was standing right in front of her at the entrance of the room."Long time no see, my little Angel." Mr Andrews said with a slightly noticeable smile on his face.China felt like her feet were glu
Anxiety and fear poured down her back like a pail of water. It was a man's voice so it definitely could not be China. What should she do?She thought to herself; should I call nine one one just in case?She then decided to dial the number and keep her finger on the call button before opening the door.After a few calming breaths, she placed her hand on the door knob and twisted it open. Slowly and carefully. She decided to open it halfway and take a peak.As she tilted her head to the side, so did the young man that was standing at the entrance. "Hello." He said as he beamed at her, revealing his perfect set of teeth.She stared at the strange yet somehow familiar man that was standing at her door step through squinted eyes. She asked herself these questions; who is this man and why is he strangely familiar?Not just one feature made him so handsome, the unique colors of his eyes often made people speak of the color of eyes.That was not the first time Mia had seen those unique sets
What the hell was she thinking? Having sex with him the first time they met in person, it was not even like they were dating. He was the young man that was helplessly in love while she was the beautiful young lady that was adamant on her decision.Was it because of those darn eyes? Perhaps they possessed the ability to make a woman fall so foolishly. She kept stabbing at her food as the thought of what she had just done wandered in her mind. This act couldn't go unnoticed by her roommate slash best friend, China."Spill it already and kill the suspense." China said without taking her eyes off her food."Huh?" Mia asked."I know something is bothering your mind, is it Ivan?" China questioned."No... Well I guess I can't say no because Ivan bothers my mind every single day but..." "He isn't the reason for today's brooding. Instead of waiting for you to tell me, let me ask you instead." She dropped her fork onto her plate and took out a golden necklace with an eagle shaped pendant and
It was a very snowy afternoon that day and it was only a few days to Christmas. A lot of people had begun preparing for the blissful holiday, they bought their trees and presents and lights. Some of the neighboring kids took it upon themselves to decorate the streets by building snow men. Truly, the Christmas spirit was alive. China was only nine then, she had anticipated the holidays and her rich parents had promised her numerous gifts if she came out with good grades from school.As always, she was the top student in the class, she wowed the teachers with her brilliance once more. Few days to Christmas, of course she ought to be rejoicing as several gifts were promised for her outstanding behavior but instead, she was sitting on the couch in the living room, sulking. Mr and Mrs Andrews, of course, as always were busy with business stuff and they had gone on a trip which they promised her they would return on the twenty first but it was already twenty third. Their family nanny
The two had been brought together by fate, only to be drawn apart by circumstances. Never did China think, not even once that the person they suspect, the family is the family of the Graham's and their number one enemy was her first love, Charlie."China, why are you spewing such words that you and I both know you don't mean?" Charlie asked with a confused look on his face."I mean every single word that I am saying!" She exclaimed angrily."Is this about me not coming to find you as well? Believe me or not, I tried! I did search for you! I didn't give up and I still haven't! I only learnt about you cutting ties with your parents recently and I knew it would be harder to find you." Charlie explained to her."That is not the reason! Okay?!" "Then why are you mad at me? Why are you raising your voice at me if it isn't because of what happened?""Do you know a guy named Ivan?" She asked him."Ivan..." He muttered to himself. "What does that bag of trash have to do with this?!" He exclai
