JORDANI froze at the familiar tone and the beautiful atmosphere and the beautiful air surrounding us suddenly disappeared. With his very presence, my happiness was sucked away and the suffocation that came with it almost seemed like it was about to take my life as well. With a hard gulp, I looked away from the dish in front of me and turned to the direction of the voice. My heart could only pray and wish that I was hearing the wrong thing but when my eyes actually fell on him, I realized that he was truly there. With the pomposity, confidence and aura of a man in power and of a Chase himself he came close, I must confess that he looked dashing for his age, even with something as a black suit. My heart skipped and a terrible feeling settled at the pit of my stomach. Something hard plunged right into my chest, hurting me so badly and suffocating me that my throat went dry almost instantly.I gulped hard and moved my eyes away from him. I would prefer to plug my eyes out than look at hi

Days went by quickly and life became better for me and everyone else. I was beyond happy, I was exceptionally happy and I could not help the way things were turning out for me. My life with Jordan had turned into a Disney fairy tale where I had my happily ever after and there was nothing more to it. We spent our days loving each other till our hearts content. Jordan didn’t seem to ever want to stop, he was always all over me and I loved it. If he went out, it was always for a short period of time and when he did come back, I would be treated nothing more than a princess and he my prince, charming.Just like every other day, we spent our time at home, doing absolutely nothing but loving each other as husband and wife were supposed to have done. But this time, I was at my studio, finishing up some work when the door opened with a loud bang, almost making me lose focus. I whipped my head to the door, feeling rather angry at the mistake that could have been made. It was one of the very ar

The morning came so quickly. It looked like it was also against me and had risen quicker than it usually rose. Maybe, they also didn’t want me to spend time with her. My flight had been booked and I had to leave soon and early too. I had postponed by movement by two days because of the woman who was next to me and my mother was not getting pleased anymore, neither were the doctors. They had suggested that I went on with the procedures here in the state, but I had refused. I didn’t want suspicion or sudden news to break out about my current situation and knowing how small of a state it actually was, I could bump into someone I know or Genesis could find out somehow. But if I was reported to be away and out of the country for business, no one would want to poke their nose into my business and it would be better to hide that way.With a stifled yawn, I opened my eyes and turned to greet my wife a good morning, when I realized that she wasn’t there. I frowned, hating the thought of not se

GENESISMy heart was beginning to ache again and my thoughts were running wide with more thoughts. I had not heard from Jordan for over a week and it was beginning to get me sick to the stomach. He had truly said that he would not be reachable before he left and even told me that he would not be available anymore but I had hoped that it won’t be so and even if he had to be unreachable, it would only be for a few days. I truly believed that it would not be so bad because we talked frequently the first few days and weeks he left. But not being able to reach him anymore was scaring the hell out of me. Sleep had started evading my eyes and my mind was always wondering where he was or what he was doing.I sighed seeing that the sun was up and got up from the bed weakly. The room was beginning to get lonely as the day went by and my heart was beginning to ache. Talking with him was better than not being able to hear from him at all and the three weeks he spoke off had elapse. Did something

With a deep breath, then an exhale, I stepped out of the house. It was sunny, but the air was cold and I was grateful for the coat I was putting on. I wore a white gown that stopped above my knees and a pair of white heels and a black colored coat that was just as long as the gown I was putting on. My makeup was heavy but the shade I was putting on did well to hide this. Then I packed my hair into an updo and wore jewelries and a matching bag.Lots of guards were outside of course and a car was ready for me. Jasmine was right beside me, and she was doing her job. Listing the names of people who I had specially invited and names of the artists whose art would also be exhibited. I was partly listening to her as she spoke and partly thinking about my mother-in-law and my father-in-law who I had spoken to earlier. I was about to step into the car that had the doors wide and open for me when my eyes caught sight of something sparkling and shining. I stopped in my tracks and turned to the e
