She shouts my name in surprise , engulfing me in her embrace. It's the first time in our life that I stayed away from her for so long.
She's showering me with her sweet kisses on my forehead,like we do to the kids. mom "I missed you so much" words slip out off my mouth on their own.
"I missed you too baby" She has a layer of water in her eyes. Holding my hand,she led me inside.i closed the door . She led me to the livin' room where I saw janice sitting on one of the couche, looking deep in her own thoughts. What has happened to her,did the guy hurt her in real. I have to talk to her but not now.sensing our arrival she looked up and passed me her small smile. Which I can assume is fake.
We sat on the middle couch then mom bombarded me with her Queries "how was your trip ella , you know I was so worried about you. Your luggage came in the morning ,your phone was inside it too. I got tensed ,what made you late b

Never ever I felt so irked towards anybody. As much as I am feeling for the senior officers, Mr.Macglanksy and Mr. Richardson. Eventually I got to know, they are working for Maxwell. The guy used his connections to camouflage my so call extended trip to god knows where. I knew he is powerful but never ever, I would have given it a thought that the officials might be working for him. This morning when I went to confront them about why they didn't inform mom about my disappearance. they hushed me in the name of "my well being" telling me to cooperate with that Maxwell. Singing the lullaby of his praises and achievements. Telling me to solve it with him, got agreed to whatever the matter is , between us. They don't even want to know what he did to me in the past 8 days time span. Both of them just care for the money and power in the form of promised promo
I was so lost in my emotions that I didn't took in dad's appearance. His forehead's bleeding a little , there's a small cut near his right eyebrow. Blood oozing out of it. But what held my breath was the blood stain , peeking out of his court's embrace. Mom and Janice too noticed it now. They both gasped in horror. Mom immediately shouted at him "What's this Steven ,you are bleeding! " Dad scratched his neck,like it's not a big deal at all. He didn't seem like someone in pain. He does look like he's tired but not like he's bleeding profusely. "What why are you standing like statue! Say something. What did you do and how did this happen. Oh my god you got into a fight. Come let me see" mom didn't even let him open his mouth. Holding his hand she pulled him inside the house and we were left at the doorway , dumbfounded. Don't know what to do. Janice and I face each
"But before that, jane 'facing her he says' do you want to tell us something" I and mom looked between dad and Janice,analysing where this conversation is going. Because he called her jane ,which is a sign she's going to land in trouble. We all noticed,janice scrunching her palms slowly taking them back under the table. I nudge her elbow ,when she didn't respond to dad's question. She broke out of her daze , looking here and there "uh...h no dad ,what are you talking about,I don't understand" she denied perfectly. My eyebrows scrunched in confusion , wondering what's happening. "JANICE WHY DON'T YOU START FROM THE FINGERPRINT MARKS ON YOUR WRIST!" Dad gobsmacked us. His face hardened probably remembering something. Janice and I stilled in recognition.But how did he know? even I don't know the bully. Mom took the opportunity to intervene in between "Hun,what
"Uhh who trevon ,noone ,who are you talking about, nothing, no na ah" i gave them my sheepish smile. In return mom and dad glares at me "Ellaaaa..." they grit their teeths together. I scratched my ear in nervousness, thinking from where to start. Anxiety built up inside me, Should I tell them about freaky Maxwell. I don't know what to do,I am scared and confused. Dad works there ,maybe he won't believe me but he's my dad . he's suppose to trust me first, right. Ohh god I always ramble in panick. Fine this is it. I too want dad's comfort and mom's assurance. Inhaling deeply ,I prepare myself for another round of long heart to heart talk. "Fine. It started when we collided....." ~~~ ".....My seniors are also involved.They are working in the embassy but in real they are working for him." "I was missing you so much dad. I
𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗥𝗗 𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗢𝗡 𝗣. 𝗢.𝗩- "So you are saying you love her that's why you abused her" its was Aiden. "How ridiculous this sounds, I didn't expect this from you Aaron. I never thought I'll say this to you but you disappointed me, son" Roseline couldn't hold back herself too. Even though she love ella and Janice like her own but never will she allow for something like this,if her son's behaves that way. In their mafia world , womens are tortured enough by their men's enemies , and if the girl didn't get loved even by her own family ,then she doesn't want this alliance. The girl deserve much more than that. Thinking about ella's struggles and hardships because of her own son. Feeling of possessiveness erupted inside her body,like a mama bear ready to save her child from every possible danger. She is angry on herself too thinking that where did she lack upbringin
Sitting in my cubicle,I am still digesting the new found bomb dropped on us last night. I slept waiting for dad but he didn't come. Although the thought of Aaron hurting him is still disturbing but I guess I have to trust mom's words. Sighing I continued typing another foreign languaged document. I like my work, I really do but this constant typing sucks me up. It's so boring here, my desktop is eating me alive. Roman hasn't come today. I wonder how the guy manage to get too many work leaves. I snort at the thought , sometimes it feels like he isn't an employee infact the owner itself. Since when does embassy start having owners? It's government body not some multinational company, you dumb f*ck ! I gasped internally in horror as my subconscious mocked me. You idiot just shut up. Everytime cursing and swearing, I am not like this I wonder where did you came from,you sick pysco. I
Before either one of us could do anything,dad came in the picture. I instantly felt relieved. Everything kicks in my brain , finally. His friend,along with his family,at dinner. Everything makes sense now. He invited them but why. Didn't I told him, about the abuse. What is he upto. I can't understand,dad! What are you trying to do here? "Come sweetie,let's go inside." He said practically pushing Aaron from our way. Starts leading me in the dining area. From the corner of my eye i saw dad glaring at aaron. But I didn't saw any sort of expression on Aaron's face. Just his proximity is enough for the anxiety to built up inside me. As my legs walked inside the dining room,I saw every pair of eye turn towards me. There sat aiden maxwell at one of the head chair just beside him on
His jaw clenched, it's visible, he's getting angry. I smirked in contempt. "If you want an apology mister, you have to earn it, not just come barging into my house and demand it." I said shoving my finger in the middle of his abs. He dropped his face and side smirked. He looked back up from his drop down head. "Will you give me a chance to earn it, hmm?" He says in an unusually deep voice. His one hand is resting on my door, leaving the other in his pants pocket. "Let me think..... 'I say, a finger tapping my chin and with the other hand I hugged myself... umm ...... how about .......... a... NO! " "Aren't you flying too high miss summers." He grits his teeth in annoyance. That's not my problem. I'll avenge every humiliation I hav
