"Yes I did, this is yours" he dropped his passport on the mahogany table before him.
"What's the need for it then? Thought you seized it?."
"Your mother told me how you accosted her because you wanted to elope after your wedding," Ernest said, adjusting in his armchair.
Nodding in realization. "She tells you everything. What's left to say then?."
"You insulted her!... Am alright with you disappointing and disrespecting me but your mother?!."
"It wasn't my intention to" Jason defended himself. "I was pissed off, I felt like a teenager! I am an adult for god's sake and still have my parents seize my passport without my knowledge."
"We wouldn't treat you that way if you had the least respect for yourself."

I barely can fend for myself and my daughter, and my husband is wayward. sometimes I wish he was dead so I would be free to go about my life!" She sighed dejectedly. Maureen watched her sister in wonder."You are your problem, Monica!" She spat. "Excuse me?." "Yes! I'll say it again. How many times have I advised you to leave Tony?

It was raining heavily!!!.... 6:30 am. That was when Sabina left her quarters to come to work in the rain, she was always known to be punctual, unlike her fellow maid Zara who procrastinated a lot. Sabina needed to be at the house on time and help Sophia with her early morning routine. No matter the weather, one needed to bathe and prepare for the day, and being very responsible and quiet, she hurried with her umbrella and entered the vicinity. Once inside, she turned on the passage light and living room through to the kitchen. Sometimes the house would be so blacked out with the thick curtains preventing light from outside penetrating. One had to turn on the light bulbs for a better view. She checked the kitchen and after having a little breakfast she walked to Sophia's room to wake her up as usual. Sabina thought of her life in the house. She liked it, at least she wasn't treated ba

She fell!... She thought she could walk again, so soon. With her therapy and exercise going successfully she wanted to try walking on her own without help from anyone. At least it would help her escape the walls of this house reminded me so much of her disability. Sophia stood from her wheelchair and held onto the dining table for support, but she miscalculated. The tiles were so slippery for her convalescence legs and she slipped, knocking down a glass jar with her. The shattered particles sliced into her upper elbow. It took a while for Sophia to feel the pain and she wailed sorrowfully. No one was nearby to help. Jason was out avoiding her as usual after their last ugly encounter and she had no idea where Sabina and Zara were. As she sat there in pain, she thought this wasn't the first time it happened. Suddenly it all played like a movie, Déjà v

He blamed himself for it!... He stood by the hallway and waited impatiently feeling out of place. Everyone deserved to be with her at this point except for him. He was a monster and deserved to be cast away from the earth's surface. But he still stood there with a little hope that she might still accept him. Jason sighed for the umpteenth time since he got a heads up from one of the maids about Sophia's situation. He left everything to his uttermost surprise and drove recklessly to the hospital and was told to wait in the lobby because she was in the ICU. His mother came sooner and gushed over how dangerous home accidents were and talked endlessly of the worst-case scenarios, causing Jason to almost snap at her. It wasn't what he wanted to hear at that point, negativism. His mother sat behind him looking collected and calm but he could see the turmoil she was passing through and not really because Sophia was inside there bu

To her greatest astonishment!... He was always around whenever she needed anything, causing the maids to focus more in the kitchen because Jason had refused to leave the house nor take a rest when it concerned Sophia. He would check on her every minute. It almost began to get on her nerves, because she wasn't ready to forgive him and live as if they both were a happy couple. Though she was still getting to the reality of how evil Maureen was. To throw her out of the house that night and left her in the cold rainy weather. Sophia recalled how she woke in the hospital, and found Jason in a grotesque position on the tiny couch at the edge, looking so uncomfortable. She wondered what he was doing there.
