Sonia woke up to see Luci staring at her. She furrowed her brows at him, "How long have you been staring at me?" She asked. "Not long enough." He said, still staring at her. "Why were you staring at me?" The question sounded like an explosive bomb to Luci's ear and before he could defend himself, she had offered him another blasting question. "And why are you still staring at me now?" Was it ever a crime to stare? Why is she making it look like one? "I. . . I'm sorry, I'll try not to look at you again." He said. He sat by the side of the bed, he didn't want to do any thing that would get her angry. She left the bed, heading to the bathroom. Luci tried to help her but she waved a big “No” at him, walking by herself. Luci decided to let her be for the meantime, but he wasn't gonna stay away from her for so long. Sonia couldn't put herself into the bathtub. She tried raising her legs but they were just so difficult for her to and she didn't want to call his attention.
Luci walked out of the bathroom with a towel tied around his waist and another vigorously running through his hair, drying out the water in it. "Babe, I can't—” "Shh-shh." Sonia shushed him. "Is he asleep?" He asked in a whisper. "No. But your voice is gonna scare him." She mocked. He chuckled. Luci went to his wardrobe to pick his cream. While he rubbed the cream on his skin, he watched as Sonia muttered words to Dorcas. She has been playing with him since she woke up even though he wasn't giving her any reaction. "It takes time before he can understand what you're saying." Luci said, dropping the cream back into the wardrobe. "I know, but it doesn't matter. I know he can hear me, somehow." She said, not sparing him a glance. "Besides, he's staring at me which means he is hearing what I am saying but not understanding." She said the last words in a sad tone. "You're right, it's gonna take a long time." She looked at him. "Since he was able to grow so fast in my wom
The red light from Dorca's scar still bothers Sonia that she can't take her mind off it. She's been staring at him since he had stopped sucking her breast to see if the light will appear again. She came to realize the scar had some how increased. She touched it, it felt like a normal scar to her but she knew there is some thing more to it than just a scar. Some thing she must find out as soon as possible. *Does Luci know some thing about this? If yes, could he be hiding the real truth of the mark away from her?* She thought to herself. Still wondering what the red light means, Sonia dozed off to sleep. Luci touched the back of his neck as he felt the pain sting him. He knew the light had finally glowed. It was a mark which connected a child to his father. He had created the mark for a day like this, and for generations to come. "Your majesty?" The prime minister called but he wasn't listening. "Your majesty?" He called again. He moved his eyes at his prime minister but sa
Luci went to visit the library after so many years. He scarcely goes to the library only when necessary. But today isn't just necessary, it's important. The library contained every thing one would need in life, and this was the great job of the library keeper, Mr Thompson. Mr Thompson walked out from the library archive with a hip of books in his hand. He wasn't aware of Luci's entrance. He drops the books on his desk, sorting out those he had reviewed from the unreviewed ones. Those which he had reviewed, he carries them to the shelf. He heard the sound of flipped books, so he paused what he was doing to take a look at who it might be. "Hello? Who's over there?" He asked, slowly walking to the side he had heard the noise. "I'm not gonna ask you twice, who are you?" Luci decided to be quiet. He kept flipping through pages upon pages and yet, he hasn't seen an answer to Sonia's question or even some thing close to it. He angrily drops it on the desk, causing a loud noise.
Sonia took her baby into her arms as she carried him out of the room to take a walk. Tessa was just coming in, on seeing Sonia leaving she pleaded with her to stay back. Sonia was so surprised that Tessa was begging her to stay back that she didn't know when the words slipped out of her mouth. "What for?" "Your highness, His majesty warned me not to let you leave the room for any reason." Tessa said. "And why can't I leave the room?" She yanked. "Am I kept as a prisoner or what?" Sonia was so mad at her that she didn't mind the words she said to her. "Your Majesty, it's not what you think. His majesty is only being prote. .. " Sonia cuts in sharply. "Protective of what exactly?!" Tessa was quiet. She was so weak to talk sense to the already annoyed Sonia who isn't ready to listen to whatever she is to say. "I'm sorry, Your Majesty." Tessa apologized. "I must see his majesty and know why he has given such an order against me." Sonia made to leave but Tessa tells her th
Sonia decided to go for a walk with Tessa walking behind her. She was deep in thought as she kept walking to the garden. She would look at Dorcas for a while, but he was just quiet and calm in her arms. "What are you?" She mentally asked. And she wished he could just hear her and give her a reply. "I'm happy though, I'm happy you'll grow up to become some thing great." Sonia sat under a tree, and yet the thought hadn't left her mind. Tessa was worried for her, seeing the way she was lost in thought. "Your highness." She called, worriedly. Sonia didn't spare her a glance. "Your highness." She called again. Sonia turned her gaze to her, looking mutely at her but didn't say any thing. "What's bothering you?" Tessa asked, worried. "Nothing." She said, "But. . . you look worried." She said, doubting her words. "Right now, I just want to think, Tessa." She simply said. Tessa decided to be quiet and not to worry her any more. Sonia on the other hand continued in her
Cynthia went to the hospital the following day to check on her baby. Since Lucifer made mention of her child having some thing to do with his son, she wanted to know how far her child is. But to her amazement, her doctor told her that her child was in good shape. "Mrs Sotomayor, your child is in good shape. He is as healthy as before." He told her. Cynthia was happy to hear the information. She touched her stomach, "Thank you, doctor." with a warm smile on her face. After the check up, Cynthia drove to the SS Bridal Enterprise which is now the CS Bridal Enterprise(Cynthia Sotomayor). There is just one thing about Cynthia, despite Alex warning her not to go to work, plus her condition, she still insisted to go to work. She was only trying to win the hearts of her workers, and play a good role just like Sonia did. Her assistant had told her to stay home until she delivers but Sonia insisted she was fit enough to continue her job. "Madam, your condition needs a lot of rest
"Now that he has grown, why don't we give him a separate room to stay?" She suggested. "I already have one prepared for him. Starting tonight, we'll have him sleep in his new room." Luci was so sweet at doing things ahead of time and that's what makes Sonia keep loving him the most. She never expected to hear him say that, but she was happy and ready to present the new room to Dorcas by herself. She went to confront Dorcas who sat on the same spot as she left. She walked to his front, squatting before him. "Hey." Dorcas looked away from her gaze, staring in a different direction. Sonia held his cheek, turning his gaze back to her. "Hey." She waved a smile on her face. "I wanna show you some thing, but that's only on one condition." Dorcas was looking at her but didn't give a reaction. "It's a surprise, a big one. Don't you wanna see it?" She asked him. He nodded his head. "But like I said, it's only on one condition. Do you wanna know the condition?" She asked again.
