THIRD PERSON'S POVInside a big beautiful mansion, a woman in her late fifties was seated on a designer's chair although she looked younger than her age and if you look at her you will know that she is influential and rich.The door to her room sprang open and a man with dark curly hair walked in with anger. He tossed his car key on a chair and he slumped himself lazily on the chair seating next to her."What could have made my son look this worried and sad?" she asked, scrutinizing him."Mother, I am tired of all these, for how long do I have to wait to get what I need?" He turns and faces his mother with an angry look. The expression on his face shows how depressed he is. "Why does Alexander have to get everything? He is made the CEO of all the companies, his names are everywhere, he is popular, and always comes first in father's heart. Tell me mother when will I get what I need?" He ruffled and sigh pathetically before crossing his legs together."Don't worry my son, I am wor
Clara POV "There is no f**king way I am going to that party with you," I tell Tricia the nth time she was holding my bag while I carried the sleeping Aria in my hand as we made our way inside her apartment. "You have no choice Clara you are coming with me either the easy way or the hard way" "You know, I have a night shift at work today so you have to look over Aria while I go to work so just cancel the party." "You are skipping work today." She blurted out as if she had the right to control me. What! She presses the doorbell and the door opens revealing Mrs. Flora, Tricia's mother. "Hey Clara" Mrs. Flora walks towards me and collects Aria from me. "I will put her to bed" she mumbles and walks out. "There is no way I am skipping work you know Mr. Blake too well he likes money and might sack me if I don't go to work" "It doesn't matter, we are going to party tonight just look at yourself Clara, you are a single beautiful mother, and every day you go to work without resting don
Clara POV"Who the hell are you" I screamed but he quickly covered my mouth with his hand and I made a silent muffle sound the one victims make when they're been kidnapped so that no one will hear my voice then he drag me back into the restroom and slam my back hard on the wall making a slight pain rushed through my body while I whimper in a silent cry."Did you think you could get away from me that easily huh?" "Who are you?" I almost scream my lungs out as I struggle to raise my head up to take a look at his face but he is taller than me and he is not letting me see him. f*ck him."I have nothing to do with you, just let me go.""Let you go? hmmm." He pauses for a while as if he is thinking of what to say "No I am not letting you go you are mine, did you know that?""What! I belong to nobody." Why would he claim me as his? I am not a kid, I am a single mother that has a responsibility to take care of. A random guy won't just show up from the blues and try to claim me. I am not som
Clara POV After Alexander let go of me I rushed to the dancing floor and immediately I saw Tricia I walked to her and pulled her away from the guy she was dancing with dragging her outside the party. "Let me GOOO" she screamed and pulled her hand away from me. "Tricia we have to leave here now" I speak softly to her hoping she will understand me. I never knew that the alcohol is intoxicating all her senses of reasoning. "Leave me...the...the hell alone I am going nowhere" she stamped her foot angrily on the floor and pouted like a little baby. Gosh! I hit my forehead lightly. I hate it whenever this girl is drunk. She behaves insanely just like what she is doing now. She removes her shoe and holds it in her hand while she walks barefoot. God, look at what alcohol has turned your daughter into. "We are leaving this place now" I stand on my ground and scream at her but she wasn't moved by my words. "I said...noooo l...leave me the hell alone I... wanna have fun" she turned to lea
I wake up very early on Monday morning and prepare for work. I went to check Aria in her room while I am already fully dressed. Too bad, I won't be able to take her to school today. I don't want to be late for work since I didn't go to work yesterday.I peck Aria on her cheeks while she was still sleeping and turn to leave when suddenly her tiny hand holds me from behind. I turn around and my eyes met with Aria whose eyes were already half awake."Mummy, are you going to work already?" She asks with her tiny voice."Yes, my princess, I will be leaving now.""But Mommy won't you take me to school first? you promised to be the one to take me to school today" She says with her eyes fully open as she stares at me with her cute green eyeball which always reminds me of the one who is not to be mentioned.I take in a deep sigh and try to come up with something. These days my daughter and I don't usually have girls' time anymore due to how busy I have been with work but, this is for her good.
CLARA POVHe rushes towards me and pins me on my neck, choking breath out of me before giving me two hard resounding slaps on my face, and within seconds darkness surrounds me that I almost collapse on the floor."I am going to f*ck you right here and nothing will stop me. I have waited enough for you, your pu$$y is no gold." He hissed loudly and move his hand to my thighs while I scream at the top of my voice still trying to free myself from his grip which was so f*cking tight around my throat that it felt like I will stop breathing any moment from now.He moves his hand to my inner thigh. I try to clasp my legs together but he slaps them apart with force and my heart almost jumps out of my chest when his hand comes into contact with the strap of my pants."P-please...let me go." I cry weakly still trying to push him away but right now he seems like an unmovable rock and a devil who is unstoppable.Mr. Blake was about to yank my pants away when suddenly the door jerked open and a ray
I am an orphan since I already lost my mother, the only person that stands as both parents to me. Most times I do remember what happened that night I almost go insane but in the end, my mom always makes sure she helps me to wipe away that memory. It takes me three years to come back to my right senses after what happened to me that night which resulted in Aria's pregnancy. At times I wish the memory of what happened remained fresh in my head so I will have to remember who the person is but I am glad my mom was able to wipe it away. What is the point of having a memory that always makes me traumatized? I never wanted to see or recognize the face of he who did that to me but one thing I know is that the gender is dangerous, the gender that betrayed Jesus.Even if I couldn't remember the man vividly well. Even when I don't have much income to even carter for myself I couldn't abort the baby and become a murderer.So I kept the little being alive and with the help of my best friend Trica
Clara POV"Mummy, are you coming to my painting audition today?" Little Aria asked holding my hands as we walk into Tricia's room."I will come and meet you guys so you can go with Tricia. I need to go home and get some of the things you need to complete your drawings." Since we spent the night in Tricia's house some of her painting equipment is not here."Okay mummy please don't stay long.""I won't my princess you know I love you.""And I love you too." She waves at me.I walk down the street heading to my house which is just a few meters from Tricia's house. I slot in the key and unlock the door. I closed the door behind me and turned around but I was shocked when I saw a figure standing at the extreme end of the house and he was wearing a black hood.I was scared but I managed to take a step further hoping to take a proper view of the person since he was wearing a black hood and his back was facing me so I couldn't see his face."Who are you?" I muttered with my heart ra
