“wow sorry I forgot you were there,” Justin said after the awkward silence that was there before Stacey hurried to leave getting herself in order along the way.“Okay, I see why you want to get off Sandra so fast,” he said to him.“I just met her recently, nothing much,” he said trying to end that conversation about Stacey.“it seems you are forgetting what happened last time you were sleeping around with these girls! I will take care of this we have urgent matters to work on” he said to him before he looked at his watch and walked away leaving. Stacey felt embarrassed walking back to her office, getting herself in order. That went ugly real fast she thought. She did not understand how that even happened in the first place, she did not even say a word to Patrick when she passed at his office but neither could she wait to be done with the baby issue, now that she had the signature from Justin.She walked out of her office with her handbag ready to leave and get Linda to take her to th

As she slumped on the bus seat heading back home, her mind drifted away to a million thoughts. The Black city was home to her but because of school she had to leave, this was not how she pictured coming home when she left for school. She had dreamt of coming home with her gown and her hard-earned degree back at home, not broke and a dropout like her mother, things had turned so fast for her, she hadn’t even had time to tell her mother she was coming back. “Perhaps she went on one of her trips with her boyfriends” she hoped, she knew she did not even care she was also angry at her and was not looking forward to seeing her. It has been a few months since her being away from home and a lot of things had changed, she looked around wondering when everything in the city had begun looking so different. After long hours of travelling she arrived home exhausted, unfortunately for her, her mother was in the house and received her with a warm welcome and a big hug.“baby I didn’t know you are

After thinking and meditating for about an hour, she finally decided to get ready for the interview. She stood in front of the mirror, her mind unsure about which dress to wear, they both looked good and very official and that even made it more difficult to choose between the two.“The blue one would fit you perfectly,” her mother said walking Into her room, she did not turn to look at her but chose the black one instead.“Are you still mad at me baby?” she asked her.“no, what do you think maa” she answered back in an attitude but her mother did not back off.“okay talk to me what is it, Stacey?” she asked her sitting on her bed.“do you honestly trust that man?” Stacey asked her moving about the room like she was looking for something. “I don’t think he should be leaving here” “I know you are mad that he could be your father….” she answered her but was cut short by her.“No, he is not. Why don’t you ask him to take a DNA that way we will all be sure.” She said getting her bag read

This wasn't a day like any other day at work, special guests were expected and every worker was aware and they had all been asked to get ready for the preparations on welcoming the special guests. Stacey arrived earlier than usual she had left her mother resting who was still healing from her wound, Jacob wasn’t anywhere to be seen and she was relieved he had listened to her and did himself a favour by staying away from them.Stacey was placed among the first people on the line in welcoming the guests, they were to perform a special welcome invite that involved magic, but since she hadn’t mastered it all well she was to throw some special flowers while standing behind the one who was doing a magic trick which involved magnifying the flowers and causing them to burst to produce some bright sparks with a sweet aroma.Everything looked bright and displays of some of the amazing designed clothes was all over. Stacey felt a move in her belly that caused her to stop throwing the flowers for

“Where did you find this” Magdalene asked while she held the glowing glass in her hand.“We got this at the room the ladies and the unseelies were at,” Justin said to his mother after he explained to her why he left in a rush without saying a word. Her mother felt highly disrespected and he had come to apologise and explained to her what happened, he did not however mention everything, his brother was also there and he seemed like he wanted to say something but he knew he couldn’t speak unless he was given a chance.“This is a touch of the Queen's magic it seems the unseelies had beat us again at tracing every last piece of the Queen,” she said as she studied it moving it in circles in her hands.“Those cruel unseelies took it off the old woman's belly,” Justin said to his mother who was listening keenly.“is any of them awake?” she asked him and he responded saying that none of them had woken up but the old lady was in a critical condition, she is not guaranteed a chance of surviving
