Nothing was well with him, every time his gear was squeezing in pain, an excruciating pain that he couldn't imagine or explain. He had swallowed so many pills that he was almost overdosed.His mother walked to him, “What is it, son? What is happening to you? Ever since that wedding, you haven't been yourself. What's the problem?” Mrs. Wechuli asked as she leaned next to him.She looked around the room and couldn't believe it. The entire room was smelling alcohol. It was full of empty alcohol bottles, starting from whiskey to beers. Nothing was left behind.Paul raised his head and glared at his mother, his glare was so hard that she got scared and took two steps behind subconsciously.“You…you are the problem, mum. It all because of you that I lost her. It's because of you, that I lost everything that mattered to me,” Paul complained.Mrs. Wechuli frowned as she asked,“What are you talking about, son? I don't understand.”“Yes you can't understand mum, you can't because you have never
Standing on the balcony and looking further in the compound made the five years memory that he was trying to bury resurrect back to his mind and thoughts.It was one fine morning when he couldn't explain what really happened. How his former girlfriend was curled up in bed with him when Ivana entered.To him, it was like a nightmare or a bad dream that he wished to wake up quickly. The memories of him running after Ivana and convincing her that nothing had happened. The look in her eyes when she was driving away.His mother's approach with the unknown investors when he was going after how. How he wished to reverse everything back and make it right.How he wished he had tried once more to talk to Ivana and leave the country together. Five years away from her had caused him a lot.Five years ago, Paul left the country to go and study film making and production. Well, he didn't want to, but his mother's manipulation unfortunately worked on him.He tried talking to Ivana so that they can
“Mish,” Ivana called, coming out like a whisper. “My life …has turned into a mess,” She Said as she played with her fingers.Mish moved closer and stared at her. She was not comprehending what Ivana was saying.“Why didn't you leave with him? Are you missing him? Wow! My sister is in love, I knew it! I knew that this marriage will work,” Mish said excitedly after staring at Ivana.Ivana lifted her head and stared at Mish.“He is the reason my life is a mess.”“What are you talking about, Ivana? Did he refuse to leave the country with you?” Mish asked.Ivana sniffled as she stared at her, she cleared her throat and narrated to her what just happened.**“You see, we can't let her know that we have the documents. This document can help her reposes back the company, including your shares,” Mr. Mukhongo advised.“So what do we do? Tomorrow we are having a board of directors meeting and I know most of them will vote in Ivana's favor, that means she will have the access to everything,” Mrs
‘I am trying to help you, this is the only help that fits your situation right now,’ Mish thought as she stole a glance at Ivana.Ivana and Charo dropped Mish at her home, then left for the mansion without a word.‘I wish I didn't leave the room, stupid me,’ Ivana thought.Charo saw her smirking through the rear mirror.“Ma'am, is everything okay? You can talk to me,” Charo said.“Huh?yeah…yeah I am fine just keep driving, I am tired,” Ivana responded.Mish walked to the sitting room and found her parents having dinner. “Why the gloomy face, sweetheart, are you okay?” Elizabeth, Mish's mum, asked.“Yeah I am fine mum,” She replied as she pulled the chair and sat.“Where have you been?” Mr. Mukhongo, Mish's dad, asked.“I went to see my cousin Ivana, she was not feeling well, that's why I asked for permission from the human resource,” Mish explained.“That was so unreasonable for you. How can You leave your work to go check on someone who refused to leave the country with her husband,
Ivana walked off the boardroom with a heavy heart and teary eyes. Although she was expecting that to happen according to the written will. Mr. Bombwe had willed the company to Mrs. Wechuli, something that Ivana doesn't believe at all. She almost pumped into someone as her eyes were blinded by tears.“Sorry,” Ivana Said as she walked past the person.“Ivana, are you okay? Why are you crying?” she asked.Workout, turning to look at the person, Ivana already recognized the voice. It belonged to none other than her mischievous cousin.“You can talk to me,” Mish added.Ivana wiped her eyes then, “No Mish I am fine.” she then entered the elevator with her head bowed. Mish stared at her and knew that probably something had happened. She went to her office before leaving for the boardroom.Ivana walked hurting, her heart was aching, remembering that she had to give up the love of her life just because of the company. The company she thought that will carry on her father's legacy, but all that
Eva knew Ivana better, although she already heard it from her mother about what had happened to her best friend. She just wanted to hear it from her, the first-hand Information.“You probably know everything Eva, is there a point of me telling you?” Ivana asked and leaned forward for a hug, which she gladly received from Eva.“I know, and I apologize for the loss of your father, uncle Bombwe was such a nice soul. I don't weather the information that I received from my mom is the correct one. Did you lose the company to some investor?” Eva asked.“Yeah, it just happened today, I know the media has written crazy this gs about it. I don't know Eva, I really don't know how or where I am going to hide this face, the paparazzi will be everywhere,” Ivana Said as she played with her fingers.“Us that why you didn't want any disturbance, or is there something else? ” Eva asked as she studied her face, there were quite some reactions a d facial expressions that she didn't understand.“Look here
Eva arrived home, her driver packed the jeep and opened the door for her. She walked to their house and found her mother and father taking evening tea.“Hello Eva, you are back? How is your friend doing?” Eva's mum asked.Eva sighed, she then walked to her mother and hugged her tightly.“I don't know what to say Mum, I am glad, happy and grateful that you are still alive. I mean the both of you. Dad, I am so lucky to have you guys in my life,” Eva said.“ We are lucky that you are our daughter. In fact, we are blessed to have you, dear,” The governor said.“You are our gem, our Lily and that's why you are named Eva Lily,” Her mother added.“Join us fit the evening tea.”“No, I am fine,” Eva said.“But you don't look fine,” her parents said in unison.Eva smiled without revealing her dental formula. It was a fake smile to show them that she was fine, but her mother was not buying it.“What is bothering you?” She inquired.“I am just wondering what Ivana us going through. Can you imagin
