Silence and tension settled in the car on their way back to Kyla's house. The doctor's words still posed questions in Kyla's mind. “Aren't you going to explain what the doctor meant with his statement?” Liam probed, his voice calm. Maybe a bit too calm for Kyla's liking, it felt like the calm before the storm.“How should I know? He left before he could explain,” Kyla said, raising her shoulders, clueless.Liam studied Kyla carefully through his side eye shot, she appeared too composed as she patted Dean's head. “May I ask why you asked Dean to call you mom?” Liam broke the silence that once again settled between them.Kyla whisked her head towards him in surprise at how he put out his statement. “What are you trying to say, Liam? You know that's the last thing I would do, how could I say no to Dean?” Kyla expressed her disappointment, trying to keep her voice low not to wake the sleeping boy.“First you feed him peanuts, now you want to convince me he asked you to call him mom? Do
Liam chuckled as he saw his son struggling to put on his clothes. It had taken the boy almost ten minutes to get them right. “Dean, lemme help you now, okay?” He asked, not able to prevent his amusement as he chuckled.“No dad, I'm a big boy, I can do it by myself,” Dean insisted, pulling his hands to his chest.“Let me help, or we'll be late, don't you want to visit Dylan?” Liam asked, smiling as his son's eyes grew wide.“Okay, Dad, is Mommy Kyla going to be home?” Dean asked, making Liam huff audibly at his insistence. Liam couldn't help but feel glad that Dean liked Dylan, soon they would live together. His heart couldn't soften at that decision, he had to do everything he could to take Dylan.A loud ringtone interrupted Liam's thoughts revealing Justus' number on the caller ID.“Jus hey man, what's up?” Liam picked up the words that followed, paralyzing him.“What did you say? Dad's sick? How? What happened?" Liam asked in panic, making Dean look at him mirroring his worry.“Ok
"Miss Kyla, are you alright? Miss Kyla? Miss…” Kyla couldn't tell what the nurse was trying to say as she zoned out feeling her head swirl before she felt her vision blur. The thought of meeting him face to face overwhelmed her.As Kyla struggled to open her eyes, she felt her head get heavy all of a sudden, her mind registering what had happened. Did she really black out? Where was Dylan? The question popped in her mind as she looked around in panic not locating him around the room.She quickly got off the bed as she dashed out of the ward, running towards the doctor's office.As if on cue, Diana's nurse passed her before her mind registered it was Kyla making her run after her. “Miss Kyla? What are you doing out here? How are you feeling?” She asked, holding her hand, making her stop her run.“Have you seen my son?” Kyla asked the only question that invaded her mind since she came to.“Ooh Dylan? He was in your room a while ago and requested to visit the washrooms, I was on my way
Kyla could have sworn she forgot how to breathe for a second, as she watched Liam's movement around the hospital with Dylan. Dylan was laughing as he spent time with him until they boarded his car, as the security footage from the parking lot showed.“I want to see Dr. Lamar,” Kyla requested, her face as white as a sheet and pale.“Sorry, Miss Kyla, that's not possible, he left a while ago and won't be back until after two weeks,” the nurse explained, making Kyla feel her breath hitch.“Okay, can I have his personal number, please? Don't say no please, I need to know what happened?” Kyla pleaded, her eyes swelling with tears. She couldn't imagine her son had been taken away just like that. How could Liam be so cruel and heartless? How was she going to survive without him?Just then, her phone rang, making her quickly press the accept button without checking the caller. Any call for her at the moment was important.“Hello Kyla?” A familiar female voice said, making Kyla feel her insid
Tension gripped her nerves as she waited for the doctor to bring in the test results. She didn't feel well earlier at work, and she hoped it was what they had wished for, for over five years. Kyla Anders crossed her fingers whispering a silent wish in her heart as she saw the doctor approaching.“Hello Miss Kyla, this time I have good news for you, congratulations you are four weeks pregnant,” the doctor said smiling at her.Kyla couldn't contain her joy as she grabbed the test results, her eyes scanning for the confirmation. “Thank you doctor Liz, thank you,” she muttered on the verge of tears.“It's okay dear, I told you it will be well one day, congrats again,” Doctor Liz said wiping her tears. She had seen the couple struggle to have a child for years and being her mom's best friend, she took Kyla's joy as hers.Excitement shimmered inside her like lava, she couldn't wait to share the good news with her husband. She planned to prepare a colorful dinner for him. She wanted to mak
Kyla felt her world swirl around her, how could the world be so ruthless? Just when she thought she could finally fix her marriage. She closed her eyes tightly, trying to numb the pain in her heart.“Yes she is, so you better sign those papers and get your cheating ass out of my house!” Blake spat the poisonous words at her.Blake looked at the pitiful, shameless woman before him. To think he had loved her unconditionally through the years, he couldn't see past her betrayal. His heart stung at the look of betrayal and disappointment that covered her face. He planned to break it to her in a different way.“But what about our baby?” Kyla asked pitifully, not sure what she wanted to accomplish with her weak defense.Blake felt his heart race for a minute before the possibility of the baby being her lover's clouded him.Blake chuckled in scorn," you think I'm stupid enough to believe that bastard thing you're carrying is my child? I'm not that stupid, Kyla," He mocked, his sharp words sli
At TheeStorm organization, Liam Storm paced in his office in frustration as he looked at the man before him."Dad I already told you, we are trying our best," Liam tried to convince his father who was hell bent on making his life unbearable."We both know you'll not take over the company if you can't produce an heir, you have a quality wife, what else do you want?" Daniel Storm urged relentlessly.Liam ran his hand through his hair as he felt trapped in his own body. It was yet another negative outcome from the hospital. Ever since the accident nothing had ever been the same, although Isabelle was okay, he on the other hand could not say the same. "We're trying dad but it's just not working, we are only left with one last chance and if that doesn't work you can't blame me," Liam said, his mind tired of having to take his fiance for IVF multiple times only to get negative results after hospital tests."Don't worry son, I have a feeling this last one will take," Daniel Storm said comfo
Lost and desperate was what Kyla felt as she walked by the roadside, not sure what her destination would be. She felt like an outcast, her family rejected and threw her out, as her ex-husband did. Her mind swirling and filling her head with questions which no one could answer.She had nowhere to go at the late hour, the only door she could knock was her aunt's place. Kyla felt her heart wring in pain as she thought of all she had been through. No one in her life appeared to care whether she lived or died. A car screening by the road, almost running her over, made her heart skip a beat.Blake got off, looking at her in disgust, “so you would rather walk around like a whore than go back with me?” He accused, grabbing her hand roughly.Kyla felt her inside shake at the murderous look on her ex-husband's face. “Let go of me, Blake, or I'll…” “Or you'll what, Kyla? Scream for help? While you're dressed like that, do you think anyone would bother to help you?” Blake criticized looking a
