"Just when I thought It will end, it all started again."

Giovanni POV
It's been two days. Melody had been hospitalized for two days with no sign of waking up. For those two days, I was miserable. I couldn't work like I used to. I had Anita take up melody's position temporarily until she wakes up. I also made sure that Lorena and Hope were guarded by securities appointed by Dennis. After the attack, Daniel introduced someone who could help investigate and catch the attacker. I needed to know why and who wanted melody and myself dead.
If only I could regain my memories, I would be able to find out the real truth. I wanted to ask Lorenzo for help but I didn't trust him yet and he could be the attacker. I glanced at my wristwatch for the umpteenth time while waiting for the investigator Dennis hired. I've been in a cafe where we agreed to meet while D
"Karma is a bitch. It bites when you never expected." . Melody POVIt was dark. Too dark that I had no idea where I was. All I could feel was the cold of the night that sent shivers into my soul. It was too cold that I thought my heart was going to freeze."Is anyone out there?" I screamed for help. My voice echoed into the night. It was as if I was the only one in the world. While trying to create heat with my hands, I heard a car driving from afar.So I was on the street. The headlight shone its light at me and I saw it coming straight at me. It was a black car. When I tried to move out of its way, I was unable to. I was glued to that spot. I saw another car driving opposite and with the way the car swerved across the road, I knew something was going to happen. I was standing in between the cars and No matter how I tried to
"It was all a lie!!" Melody POVI was still shocked in the state I saw Giovanni. He looked pale like there was no life in him anymore. Lorena assured me that he was going to be fine but I needed to make sure he was okay so I waited at the entrance of the theatre room."You need to get back to bed!" Lorena advised. "You are going to get sick again if you keep up with this.""How long was I out!" I asked her."Two days," she replied.I groaned out in frustration when I realized that I was on that bed for two days. I wondered what happened for that two days. "I had a dream or maybe it was a memory.""Tell me about it," Lorena fixed my daughter in her arms and looked at me.I began to explain the dream and when I finished, Lorena heaved a sigh. "What was that for?" I as
"The past should remain in the past so the future won't be so far away." Lorenzo POV"It all started when I was five years ago," I began the story that I tried to bury deep in my heart but it kept resurfacing. "It was an afternoon, you were in school but I had stayed at home because I fell sick. Uncle Benjamin and Lucas had come to visit us that day. I was in my room sleeping that afternoon while I heard the news. It came from our parent's room."Twenty years ago, "I'm here to claim what truly belongs to me brother!" Uncle Benjamin shouted."You guys should keep it down. The kids will hear you!" I heard my mother beg. "Keep what down you whore!" My father accused her. "You are the cause of all of this. If you haven't whore around then this wouldn't have hap
"Forever is a long time." Melody POVI was ready to face my past but on getting to the two-storey orphanage home where I grew up, I found it hard to go inside.Was I ready to face my past? Was I ready to find out about my family? Those were the endless thoughts that filled my head as I stared up at the building but like always, Lorena encouraged me to overcome my fears."It's going to be okay, I'm always here." She assured me."What about me?" Hope pouted and I found it cute."We are always here," Lorena corrected herself. I smiled at both of them. I was happy I had them because I couldn't do without them. After Giovanni gave orders that I shouldn't come to the office, I spent three days recuperating and planning on how I was going to face my past."Let's go in,"
Giovanni POV It was so unreal sitting with my family and everyone pretending to be happy. I had invited them to my house for dinner as we planned. They were all surprised when they got my invitation. I had never invited them into my house. After everyone had arrived and settled down to eat the dinner the Lasagna I prepared then began."Thank you all for coming," I said. My mother was the first to reply, she was sitting beside my father on the right-hand side."This is delicious son. You still have your culinary skill." She commented and I gave her a warm smile."Seems you've finally gotten out of your shell," Lucas teased. He sat opposite my mother."Stop that's son," uncle Benjamin warned."Can't you see what he is doing?" Lucas protested. "He is trying to win over the family because he has no one. He invited us for this pathetic
"Always fight for what's right." Melody POV"Are you sure this is the right place?" I asked Lorena as we got to the address given to us by sister Mary. The house was a mansion and I wondered why my aunty would maltreat us when she lives in a house as big as that."Wow! Your aunt is a rich woman," Lorena squealed as we tried to open the gigantic black gate leading to the house. "Why is this not opening?" She hit the gate with force but it didn't budge."Calm down Lorena," I said to her and pointed towards the house. "Someone is coming.""The house looks to be abandoned," Lorena commented. We heard the clicking of heels and as it grew louder, Lorena and I exchanged looks. A lady appeared at the gate. She was dressed like a maid but she looked sophisticated like she owns the house."Who might you be?" She asked as she eyed us
Music played: love someone by Lukas graham.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Melody POV "Where she is?" Giovanni asked me as soon as he came to the hospital. After the accident happened, I called an ambulance who took Lorena to the hospital. I couldn't help but cry as I rode the ambulance to the hospital while holding Lorena's hand. Just when I had thought I found her, someone wanted to take her away from me. Once the ambulance got to the hospital and Lorena was wheeled into the ER, I called Giovanni. "Franklin," I burst into tears as soon as he picked up the call. "Melody," he shouted. "Where are you? What happened?" "Lorena, she......" I couldn't form any words as I started crying again. "Tell me, what's wrong?" He asked and I gave him the address of the hospital.
"This is a battlefield and I intend to win."Giovanni POV The deadline ended two days ago. After the attempted attack on Melody and hope, I made sure they were heavily guarded by security. I took time from the office for those two days and also postponed the Chinese project that Melody was in charge of. For those two days, I tried to come up with something to lure George out and sent him to prison once and for all but none came. No ideal came for those two days and I got frustrated to the point that I locked myself inside my room for twelve hours until Melody came to find me. When I opened the door for her and she saw my state, she gave me a warm hug."It's going to be okay, " she assured me."I just want this to be over with," I confessed. "I want everything to end so we could pick up from where we ended things," I poured out my mind because that's was how I felt at that moment.
