The morning was bright and it was Monday, little Zia heard a whisper-like voice which made her open her eyes. “Honey” Adele's gentle voice called trying to wake her daughter up for school. The little girl sat up yawning before she looked at Adele. “Are you my mommy?” She asked for Adele to nod smiling. “I’m sorry honey, I couldn’t come for… “Why?” She asked looking at Adele. “I have been living with the thought that my mama is dead. I watched other children in school hug their mama and even on parents' day, dad couldn’t come only grandma and Nana. Why did you stay away?” The girl asks for Adele to tear up. “I really want to be there Zee, I swear. I….” Adele can’t spoil Maria for the kids, she feels if she told them Maria was the reason they were apart, they would direct the hate to her and it would be risky for her and the children. “You swear what? you don’t like dad?” She asks for Adele to smile. “I like your daddy, Zia, I was scared and naive when you both were bo
Lisa was devastated, her eyes were red, she left the mansion and asked the driver to take her to Harden mansion. Apart from the hate and everything, she genuinely loves Harden but he’s the one pushing her away, she has tried her best to let him know she loves him but he doesn’t give her the attention talk more to listen and now she has to compete with his high school lover who has a higher probability of being accepted not just by Harden but also his kids and mother. She cleaned her eyes and kept rubbing her stomach wishing she didn’t remove the child earlier. Lisa was so angry and she began to develop hatred she had tried to suppress earlier. “ stupid family,” she said removing the ring on her finger. The car drove into the mansion, immediately the guards saw it was Lisa they rushed towards her and stopped her from going into the mansion. “ how dare you ask me to go back” Lisa furiously said as she tried to walk towards the mansion entrance. “Please let the madam in” Butle
It was evening already, The kids came back from school, and Felony helped do the chores Adele promised. It’s about dinner time but yet she’s not back and this got Harden furious and worried. At that moment he realized he hadn’t prepared a phone for her. He sighed knowing only one person he could ask to search for her but he was on suspension. “Daddy, where is Mom?” Zia asks for Harden to smile. “She went out but will be back soon,” he said. “That’s what you said earlier Daddy, it’s almost two hours,” Zayn said for Harden to sigh. He carried his desk phone and called his butler. “Prepare the kid's Dinner first,” he said and hung up. “Go have your dinner so you can retire to bed early,” He said for Zia and Zayn to nod and leave the study. Harden sighed as he had no choice but to call Simon. Inside the retirement home, where Simon applied for volunteer job during his suspension, he just finished helping to clean up and was ready to go home when his boss's number came to v
Maria had an expressionless face after her son declared the woman she paid to stay away for the rest of her life from her family his wife. “Mrs Adele McCall” Maria repeated with a scoff. “I paid you to stay away from my family slut” she said for Adele's palm to keep sweating. “Mom with all due respect, you will respect my wife,” He said for Maria to bite her lips. “Harden, I rather die than accept her as your wife, the mother of your twins is dead Harden, she’s an imposter,” Maria said for Harden to frown. “Mom, I didn’t say she’s the mother of my twins. How come you assume she is or is she?”He asked for Maria to scoff.“Zia told me their mother is back and not dead. She’s an imposter” Maria furiously said.“I have respected you enough, don’t push me,” he said coldly for Maria to tear up. “It’s a week to your dismissal, it’s time you take Lisa close so you can have her support but instead you decided to go out there and look for this lowlife slut who force her way with you
At a restaurant on the elite side of the city, the red-haired lady who just round up with her evening shift removed her apron while still on her uniform. She hung the apron on the staff hanger when her little phone began to ring.“ Gracie” she called to hear the worried voice of her friend speak at the other end of the phone.“Adele, I need you, I don’t know what I did to my client. Please you should come to the hotel, don’t call the cops…..“ calm down Grace, what happened and tell me the name of your hotel.” Adele immediately carried a paper to write it t down.“Western Hotel Room 2……..8,” Grace said as the signal began to break.“Room 2 what Gracie, I can’t hear you” Adele worriedly said as she tried to correct the number of the room.“ 2….8” The phone bumps for Adele to sigh.“Goodness,” she worriedly said as she didn’t know if it was 28 or 208. She knows it’s two, a middle number before eight but she doesn’t know which exactly so she decided to go with room 208.“ Mary, I’m out,”
The knock on the door woke Adele up, she groaned and weakly sat up and found out she was in a hotel room.“Fuck” she cursed rubbing her scattered hair as she looked around and the stranger is gone. She looks inside her blanket and finds herself still naked.The knock began to hit again for Adele to quickly stand up, and rush on her clothes before carrying her bag. She rushed out of the room for the cleaner to look at her as she rushed out.“Grace” she called crying as she regretted the decision she took last night.She called her friend's number as she stopped a taxi to their apartment.After multiple rings Grace picked.“Where have you been?” her husky voice asked for Adele to burst into tears.“ I’m so sorry Grace, where are you?” She asked to hear her friend's voice.“Home,” she said and hung up for Adele to rub her scattered hair crying.“ Adele, what did you do?” She said crying. The taxi stopped at an apartment for Adele to come out and pay her bills before she rushed into their
It’s been a week since Adele confirmed her pregnancy, she continues her work as a waitress because deciding to keep the child means extra expenses and she doesn’t know who the father is to tell him she’s having his baby. She’s three weeks gone and she felt easily tired and weak apart from the morning sickness.She hung her apron on her stand as she was done with her shift for the day.“Can you come by morning tomorrow, Samira just called she won’t be able to make the morning shift or the evening because of her sick father” the manager said to Adele who sighed.“Extra pay?” She asked for the manager to nod.“Sure,” he said smiling at Adele who nodded her head.“Ok,” she said knowing she needed the money.Adele left the front of their restaurant as she walked to the bus stop to wait for the next bus ride.“Goodness,” she sighed looking for where to sit as she was feeling dizzy and nauseous. She carried her little phone to call Grace to find out if she would be coming home for the night.
It’s been nine months since Adele disappeared, Grace has searched everywhere possible but nothing or a trace of her best friend. She filled out a missing person report and after two months it died down like she never asked for her friend to be found.It was dark already, Grace didn’t take her night shift as she was ill. Since Adele left, life seems meaningless for her but she wants to keep trying to at least know what happened to her friend. She watched their photos together on her phone and tears began to roll down. “ I hate you, I fucking hate you, Ade. Why did you just disappear without a clue? Did you even have me in your mind? You know you all I got” she said as tears began to rush down her eyes.Grace kept going through their memories until she fell asleep.At the wooden house, the sweet melody of the wood birds sounds so melodious, Inside the beautiful room, a red-haired lady sat close to her window, her big round stomach grew every day like she was being stocked with food and
