The next day, the sun was peaking through the curtains, waking up the sleeping Noah, who slowly opened his eyes and yawned, rubbing his eyes cutely with a pout, annoyed with the sun that woke him up, but not even a minute later, he was thankful that he woke up, because he was able to see his mom and dad sleeping close to each other, with his mama’s head on his papa’s chest, while his papa had his arm around his mama, it made him happy seeing them close; they were never like this before.
When he used to sneak in their room, late at night before, he wouldn’t find either of them or one of them will be missing, or if he was lucky, he would find each of them on a side, completely away from each other, as if both hated each other and didn’t like being around each other; which was the case at the time, the original Maya on
“Let’s not disturb your papa, come.” Maya got up from the bed and carried Noah in her arms, walking away from the bed, to the bathroom, where they both washed their face, Maya brushed Noah’s hair and hers, then Noah went to the bathroom, while she wore a yellow dress with blue flowers, a light white jacket and white sandals and then prepared Noah’s clothes. They went out of the room, leaving the room’s keys in there, with Maya only taking her wallet, walking hand in hand, excited to go eat breakfast, this time they were early so they will have all the food they want, without waiting in line or someone snatching their food away, what a blessing.
They were at the pool again, but this time, the three of them were together swimming, Lennon was teaching Noah how to dive, while she watched them and made sure to cheer on Noah, each time he failed and helped him if he needed it. After half an hour of them being in the pool, Maya excused herself, claiming that she wanted to go get herself a drink, while in fact she went to Mifu, who was at the bar, flirting with some guy, to tell her to come with her, to the pool. They walked up to the pool and while they were walking side by side, Maya ‘accidentally’ pushed Mifu into the pool and since Lennon was the only close by and Mifu didn’t know how to swim, he quic
Half a year later, far away from any populated area, in the middle of nowhere, was a three story house, where lived a father, a mother and their four and a half year old son. The house had one big living room and kitchen on the first floor, and only one big room on the second floor and the last floor was empty except for the weapons and tools to practice martial arts. Outside of the house, a bit far away from it, was a big garage, that had different kind of vehicles, two identical black motorcycles, a car, a big car, a bigger car, an even bigger car (I don’t know anything about cars, sorry) and also a truck, because who doesn’t have that in their garage, am I right?
Mifu didn’t believe her ears, maybe it was the cigarette she smoked before entering the house, because there is no way Maya was telling her to sleep with Lennon. She got up to leave again, being sure as hell that Maya lost her mind or was a playing a bad joke or trying to step her up, to slash her with that knife. They let her get to the door but just as she opened the door, a knife came flying to her, right beside her face, giving her a slight cut on her cheek. “You still need practice.” Lennon commented. Mifu collapsed on the ground and clutched her heart tightly, wondering if she is going to be able to get out of here alive.
On their way to Mifu’s house, Lennon found a way to start a conversation with Mifu, by asking her about the weather; it started as an awkward interaction but soon turned to a smooth one, thanks to Mifu and her way of talking and making the conversation flow. And when they were a bit close to Mifu’s house, Lennon brought the subject about her pretending to sleep with him, for the media and to get people away from them, because, as he explained, they get harassed and assaulted by many people when they go out, be it his fans, most of them are his fans, or reporters who want to know more about him, and he thought that if he destroyed his career, he would be able to live normally, if nobody cared about him anymore, he would be able to live with Maya and Noah with no worries, about people knock
If not for Mifu crying and demanding to be let out of the car, Lennon would have time to convince her to play along with their plan, but seeing as she was an emotional reck, he didn’t dare and simply walked her to the door of her apartment and apologized again. He left her with a broken heart and tearful eyes, but even with that, she couldn’t hate him for it, she could stop liking him as a potential future partner, but she could never stop liking him as a person, he was just so nice to her, unlike many others before him in her life. She entered her home and sat down on the floor, crying her eyes out, wishing she could tear her heart apart and make the pain go away. After crying at her doorway for half an hour, she got up with messed up makeup and walked to her fridge, getting a
By the time Lennon went back home, Maya was in the kitchen, cleaning the dishes, he guessed that she just made dinner to Noah and took him to bed, since the house was quieter than usual. Maya noticed him walking to her but she didn’t react, until he threw a knife at her, that was conveniently on his body, because he always had one with him, she caught it with her fingers without turning around, putting the knife in the sink and washing it as well. “That was dangerous.” Maya said, as she wiped her hands with a towel, turning to look at him with an unfazed look on her face, then walking to the stove, hitting his and her dinner. “I knew you would catch i
Walking up to the room, was quite stressful for Maya, even more than she thought, she was afraid that all of this was a trap to kill them, it wasn’t a far off point or strategy, they are demons, they would want to kill people to take over their property but she just trusted her instincts and took the man and the little girl to her and Lennon’s room. She told the man to put the girl on the bed, while she gets the first aid kit. “What caused her illness?” Maya asked, wanting to know more about what happened to the little girl so she can give her the right medicine and right treatment, to keep hers and her family’s life. “It happened right aft
