Michael walked to the elevator and pressed the ground floor button. As the doors closed, he leaned on the wall and closed his eyes, his hands in his pantsuit pockets. He was gradually slumping inside himself and he didn’t want that and so tried his possible best not to think or be emotional. The elevator dinged and he jumped slightly, waiting for the doors to open. As it did, he walked out and smiled at the nurse there. He heaved a sigh and quietly walked out of the hospital. The sky was dark but with the help of the street lights, he could see how bright everywhere was, too bad he wasn’t as bright as it and really wished it would go dark and moody like he feels.There weren’t much people on the street and he loved it like that, he took a step and then slowly strolled along the street. He was like an empty vessel walking through the street. His mind was deeply preoccupied with the memories of his wife. From the very first day he had met her when he was thirteen, he had been smitten by

Michael sat in his study room going through some office work, it’s been six days since Sasha came back home, she haven’t brought about her break again but things hasn’t been smooth between them still. She hardly talks to Michael unless it involves their children and whenever he tried to raise a conversation between them, she either says she was not in the mood or she ignores him or walks out. Michael would be a liar if he says it doesn’t affect him, but he refused to give up or force her to speak to him.A knock on the door distracted him and he looked up at the door and ushered in, “come in.”The door pushed open and Sasha walked in fully dressed. Michael raised an eyebrow noticing her dressing, he was surprised for he had no idea she was going anywhere today also because of the fact that she hasn’t gone out for the past six days. Sasha stared straight at him, “we are leaving, I just thought you should know.”“I don’t understand,” he said, standing up, “what do you mean by ‘we are le

Two weeks later, Sasha had to take the kids to the park as per their request. They have been begging her for it since the week before and she promised them on Saturday, Sapphire had made the wish that she hope Michael would come with them but Sasha acted like she didn’t hear her because she had no thought of calling him.During the past week, Michael has been doing everything to get her to come home but her decision has remained the same, she wasn’t yet ready and she wants to be sure within herself that she can live with his overprotective nature and constant demands that he knows where she was at the moment. She may have found that sweet before but not anymore. They really need to see past their differences and Michael has to let go of his past attitude. She has never told him that and she had no idea of doing so either. She was tired of being the one to tell him what to do for their relationship to work.As they drove into the park, she said to the children, “remember the plan, stic

Sasha parked in front of Friendly Zero, the new club that Janet insisted that they must attend as she has always wanted to check it out but didn’t want to go alone. She pulled down the visor and checked herself one more time on the mirror and pushed it back up. Then grabbing her clutch and phone, she killed the engine and climbed out of the car.She was the first to arrive among her friends and she loved that, for once she would be the one complaining of them keeping her waiting. It wasn’t long, she saw Janet pulling in and she grinned at her. Janet laughed seeing that and immediately after parking, she got down and went to her. “What is the matter Sash, why are you here already?”“Do you know how long I have been waiting?” she pretended to be angry.Janet laughed, “good for you, at least for once, you will be the one waiting.”Sasha grinned and glanced at the club door where two bouncers were attending to the long queue, “are you really sure we can get in there?”“Of course, why can’

Time flew by with Sasha and Michael getting closer than they ever thought they would, Sasha couldn’t help but feel that agreeing to start from the very beginning with him was the best decision she had ever made.She drove over to the Brown’s Villa where Vanessa had asked her to meet her. Arriving to the Villa, her children ran out to meet her and she was surprised, they have been staying with her mother for the past week now because she refused to let them leave, so what were they doing there?She kissed both their cheeks and they went inside together where she saw her mom and Vanessa laughing really hard at something. “Wow, that’s a sight you don’t see every day,” she smiled, walking up to them.“Sasha dear,” Vanessa smiled, “you are here.”The kids left her hands to go continue with their play. She kissed her mother on the cheek, “hi mom,” and then she kissed Vanessa as well, “hi mom.”“Aren’t you a sight for sore eyes dear,” Angelica said.“Oh, why wouldn’t she be, when I don’t kno
