Never to look back What’s brewing in your head?
Adam and rest knocked on the door and entered as they heard the childish voice inviting them in; the adults’ heart was smaller than a needle and pursed their lips pettily.Adam pushed open the door and entered but his steps paused as he saw a room full of people. He only expected Neil and the kids to be here.“Come… come… family…” Matthias stood up and invited as he moved the chair he was sitting on for Adam.“No…no…no… sit…sit… we will take seats over there.” Adam politely returned the seat as he walked forward towards Chris’s bed. He sighed in relief as he saw both Chris and Emile had woken up.“How are you feeling?” Adam asked, the guilt in his voice couldn’t be hidden.“Dad, I am fine.” Chris blinked, pacifying Adam while Chris Jnr stood up from his seat and pulled Adam to sit “Grandpa, you sit here and chat. I will get seats for eldest uncle and the rest.”Neil rubbed his nose in embarrassment as he stood up along with Adrian to get seats for everyone from the nearby nurse’s stati

“Son….” Adam called out his head lowered in guilt once the Burkes left, and he no longer needed to keep face “I have failed you and Emile and made the little ones suffer as well.”“Dad, I don’t blame you although I will not forgive mom.” Chris pursed his lips; he knew his dad was stuck between a rock and a hard place and didn’t want to make it any harder than it was. His thoughts were exactly the same as what his son said earlier ‘every debt had a debtor’.“Neither can I… no matter how hard it is…” Adam spoke in a low defeated voice “Your mother and I have decided separate.”“What???” Chris’s eyes widened; he didn’t expect this… what he didn’t want was his father to play the mediator for him to forgive his mother. Chris opened his mouth once the news sank in “Dad…I…”“This has nothing to do with you.” Adam interrupted shaking his head “If anything you are the victim. Perhaps it is all my fault…. Things wouldn’t have gotten to this stage if….”“Dad, no use mulling over split milk. Ther
Never to look back Partial truths are more believable… isn’t it?
“Now that, that is all out of the way…” Mark paused as he narrowed his eyes towards Chris who shrunk his head slightly as he knew what his big brother was going to ask, while the rest looked curiously.“I am more interested to know what you wanted Henry to do.” Mark raised his eyebrows challenging, daring Chris to lie.“Didn’t Harry say….” Chris asked weakly.“Do I look as easy to fool as Eldest uncle Burke?” Mark retorted before fixing his gaze on Chris.“Big brother, can I take a raincheck on answering that….”“Try again”“Emile wanted…”“Try again” Mark interrupted impatiently before throwing a side glance at Eric.“Don’t look at me… I am thoroughly and utterly innocent this time.” Eric raised his hands in innocence.“Big brother, I asked them to keep an eye on the old house and check out a few things.” Chris could only confess partly helplessly.“Why? What have they done now?”“Nothing new….” Chris shrugged “But I haven’t settled old scores, and you know my slate is always balance

“Big brother, are we really going to wait till Chris is ready to tell us?” Lorenzo asked on the way back, his face twisted uncomfortably, “What if he needs us and we aren’t there?”“My little brother has grown…” Mark smiled, the smile carried both loss and pride but not a hint of malice could be seen anywhere on his face or soul. “He will ask when he needs us.”“Us, staying out of the way is the best help we can give.” Angel spoke in a soft voice “I have a feeling the storm is coming.”“Dad, you are sure…. Like heaven and earth sure that you haven’t made a mistake?” Eric asked with a sheepish smile. This was the only thought in his head, from the moment this question was raised by Chris, from the moment he asked Adam if he had ever made a mistake. None of the rest bothered him; his trust in Chris was absolute. He knew his little brother wouldn’t keep anything from him unless it was absolutely necessary.“Son, are you itching for a thrashing?” Adam gritted his teeth before turning to M
Never to look back Reflection
Emile sat by the windowsill hugging her knees and looking at the endless night with a desolate expression trying to filter out the annoying sounds coming from the master bedroom. She let out a soft sigh thought about her miserable existence. Eight years of infatuated love and 3 years of marriage with absolute devotion left her with nothing but endless shame and an empty house. In the three years of marriage, there was not a day that the newspapers and entertainment world did not have a news of the colorful scandals for her husband. Emile rested her chin on her knees as she thought back to the folly of her youth. She met Daniel during her first year of university at a gathering of family friends. If at first, she was mesmerized by his handsome face and his domineering aura, later she fell in love with his brilliance and character. Emile was an outstanding bubbly and beautiful girl. She was the goddess in the hearts of almost all the young men at her university, but she had eyes only

Emile woke up with the first rays of sunlight. She hummed a tune as she busied herself in the kitchen making breakfast. Her steps were lighter with the joy of determination after a torturous night of self-evaluation and reminiscing. She finished her breakfast and left home without waiting for the Daniel to wake up.Daniel however was already awake. He lifted his eyebrows curiously as he heard the happy humming coming from outside. But he didn’t get up as Michelle was sleeping nestled in his embrace.Emile first visited her grandfather trusted aide, Lawyer Hee and spent the whole morning discussing and drafting her next steps. In the afternoon she visited grandpa Holston.“Grandpa, I am here to visit you.” Emile stood at the entrance of the living room after the butler had announced her arrival.“Come… come….” Grandpa Holston waved his wrinkled hand as he invited her enthusiastically. Emile walked over and sat next to him with a polite smile “How are you feeling, Grandpa?”“All the mor

Daniel got in his car in irritation and flung the divorce agreement application copy in annoyance onto the passenger seat and drove away. He hit the steering wheel in annoyance a few times to get rid of his anger. He had no idea why he was angry. This was what he wanted for the last three years…. Now that he had got it without even having to ask for it…. why was he annoyed?He calmed himself down by the time he reached Michelle’s apartment. He rationalized his anger was due to Emile’s arrogance and nothing more. He put the divorce agreement in the dashboard before walking up to pick her.The banquet was for celebrating the fiftieth birthday of one of his business partners who was also his father’s friend. Normally people would bring their spouses to such events; but Daniel never bought Emile… not even once. Either it was Michelle or one of the models he was having an affair with while Michelle went away. Initially this was the joke of the event and Emile’s status would be the butt of

Daniel woke up disoriented and looked around in haze. He had no idea where he was… the last thing he remembered was drinking with Ronald. Looking around he realized that this was rooms upstairs for guests that didn’t want to head back.He heaved a sigh of relief as he saw Ronald lying even more wasted on the next bed.“What time is it?” Ronald lifted his head lazily as he heard Daniel getting ready.“Around 1 in the afternoon.”“What???” Ronald sat up in a flurry.“I will head back home and see what needs to be done.” Daniel tapped his back “You take your time.”Daniel sat in the car rubbing his forehead He regretted his rudeness yesterday. He took out the divorce agreement from the dashboard to read before going back. There was nothing to read…. he looked at the papers in shock. There were no items listed under divorce settlement. Only a statement “Headed to the bridge of no return; Strangers forever.”Daniel shook his head in denial before his lips curled in ridicule. He knew how mu
