"Dad, I can explain?". Christian slowly approached them. Mom turned and she brought dad too to his gaze ." Explain what? That you're sleeping with your foster sister?". He shouted at him..Christian tried to make his parents understand but like I had forseen, mom and dad didn't care to listen, they were both disgusted with the fact that I was sleeping with my foster brother...Mom started crying. She held her hand on her head and began muttering some words only her could understand. I stepped in front of her eyes, trying to talk but she brought her hand up and stopped me from touching her."Go away, Nina" she said to me. Her eyes lached with anger at the
EPISODE 22 : BED OF ROSESThe entire day, it feels like a war zone, mom didn't stop talking about the incident, and while she expressed herself, she kept on making emphasis about me. Christian had to go to the office and I was left alone to face the constant yapping of mom. I'd be in the room and she'll work like twenty five times back and forth with the sole aim of getting me up, she did it at the kitchen, and won't be stopping anytime soon.Evening came, Christian was just returning from the office with his hand and as I ran down to welcome them, mom pushed me off the balcony, I fell down hurting myself.."Nina! What happened!". Christian rushed over when he saw me cleaning my wounded arms.."No, it's nothing". I hid the fact that his mom had intentionally pushed me off the stairs...And even though I tell on her, mom will never accept the validity of what she did..Christian took me to room and the first aid kit was brought, he helped me to clean up the wound and then he started
Episode 23: lairs of lies..Christian brought me downstairs , and mom was on the couch crying her eyes out, I don't see what I have done wrong. Dad questioned me, as he too wanted to know why I refused to send the cloths to Mrs. Benita's House. The accusations came out strong, dad and Christian put me on the spot, I was unable to defend myself. I feel shortened whenever I am being jacked up on the same topic..But then again, why would mom lie about everything. She knew I went to Mrs. Benita's House and the House keeper told me that, she had travelled for six months...Mom's disgruntled behaviour, caused dad and Christian to be angry with me. Despite my resistance to speak, they both were not willing to give me a listening ears and Mom also wouldn't stop whimpering so loudly...I waited for some hours before going to Christians bedroom to speak with him."Hey! Can we talk?". I knocked first and then entered."What is it Nina, you messed up today". He blamed me even without knowi

From the exquisite pool area, the lounges, bars and the restaurant, everything mom wanted...I took my luggage inside my suit and waited for sometime before coming down to meet the family..Christian and dad were sitting at the lounge talking, when they saw me coming toward the table..I saw dad signalling Christian to stop talking, the second his eyes and mine met with each other.."Good day Nina, hope You've settled in?". Dad asked me to sit down on the empty chair next to him.."I'm good, I think". I turned to Christian and then back to dad, " I don't feel like coming here". I opened up to the both of them..I thought I was about to get reprimanded but to my surprise, dad agreed with me. He too didn't want to come but he had no choice but to agree with his wife, Christian too, it would seem both father and son don't want to go against the mother of the house..Mom met us at the lounge after sometime and she asked w

I smiled and slightly allowed his fingers to brush through my shoulders..I can see mom's face getting all radish and Sara as well, anyone at the table would know that they are not comfortable with my relationship with Christian, it's surprising that I can read the faces of his mom and ex girlfriend, but Christian and I can't?..Somehow, mom made sure that Dad and Chr
Episode 26: Bad decisions.. The entire day, Christian and Lisa's phone was switched off, I couldn't ask mom where she might've sent her son to with Lisa, however, her warning from last night, maybe me rethink my decision... I had to wait for hour's until Christian and Lisa both returned to the hotel, it was half past eleven in the evening, and to add to everyone, Christian came back intoxicated . "Hey, what happened baby" I attempted to help me out of the car, but Lisa pulled me away, I didn't even touch him.. "What do you want?". Lisa opened her mouth to ask me, perhaps has she forgotten that I am Christians wife to be and not her anymore. . "Lisa, I do not want any trouble". I opened up .. "Hmm! But I do". She gave Christian to one of the workers to take inside, and Immediately they left, she held my hand and pulled me to a corner.. "Nina! Can I advise you?". She whispered to my ears , her words were as annoying as having her presence at the hotel with us. "Wha
EPISODE 27: BIRD'S OF THE SAME FEATHERS.Christian acted strange the entire evening, and even the following morning, he left once again before I could even get a chance to speak with him. Fuck! I had nothing self to crave than to know what he must be hiding; and honestly, I also had my suspicions about mom and Lisa being in cohorts with what is happening..As the day goes by, each other day, I wished I hadn't fallen in love with Christian, maybe my life would have been better and less dramatic..Today the hotel is hosting an all black themed party and Mom wants us to go, despite my disproval, she didn't want to take no for an answer. As usual, Christian met us there.

Are you free?". Talia comes up to my table and asked.."Sure, what's up?". I asked her..And she ogled her
