Andrea''Boss, is she awake now?'' one of my men asked.As soon as I got the information that Elena was about escaping with the help of Lauren, I practically saw red. Never in my life would I ever have imagined that she could do something like this after all we had been through. I expected her to have at least come to me so we could talk about it but that wasn't the case. If my men hadn't been privy of this escape plan, Elena would have gotten away with it which would have left me with problems because now, I would be dealing with a missing person.''Yes, she is.'' I simply said.I remained silent, sipping my drink without a care in the world. I also couldn't deny the fact that I had overreacted, I shouldn't have tied her up. It was inhumane to do that and I knew she would hate me for it for the rest of her life and I wouldn't mind because I know I deserved it.No one treated anyone like this and I totally deserved it but one thing I knew was that I had to find a way for her to forgiv

AndreaElena couldn't be pacified and I knew better than to try. She was angry, livid this time around and never in my life have I seen her this angry before. I hated that I was the cause of all her troubles. First, I had imprisoned her, made her cut her leg without denying the fact that I was responsible for a series of emotional blackmails she had passed through simply because her family owed me some money. What kind of a human being am i? I knew the answer, I was a terrible human being.''You can go home.'' I said.She snapped her head up, staring at me like I had grown two heads within a minute. I knew that she was surprised at what I said and I had no doubt that several thoughts were running through her mind. The first and the most important would be whether i was pulling her legs, she would never believe me and i knew it but i had to make her understand that i was damn serious.''Yes Elena, you can go home.'' I said.I sighed again, staring at her. The nurses who were always on

As the car took Elena further and further away from Andrea's house, she didn't know what to feel. This wasn't how she enviosioned her life to go, injured by the very person that claimed to love her.''Why would you do that to me?'' she mummured.''Is everything alright ma'am?'' the driver asked.''Yes, thank you. Everything is fine.'' Elena said.She wasn't about to tell her life story to someone that had no business in it. This was her fight and her fight alone and deep down, in the innermost part of her heart, she knew she had to fight for the love her and Andrea shared. She couldn't just allow it go that way, it was worth fighting for but what she didn't know was whether he was ready to fight alongside her in reclaiming what they lost.''I need to call Syria.'' she whispered.Elena still had about two hours more before she got to her house being that the distance was very far. She couldn't wait to see how her parents reacted when they saw her. No doubt, they would be very surprised

The next morning, Elena wasn't surprised when she saw Syria standing on her front door with a smile on her face and a basket of different pastries. Elena rushed to open the door, slamming into her with a big hug. She promised herself not to cry again after the water works of the previous day but it was easier said than done. ''Syria.'' Elena sighed."Hey baby girl, glad you're back to your senses." She chuckled.Elena knew Syria and she knew this was what she should have expected. Syria never for once was afraid of calling out her bullshit and till this day, that's the main reason why they loved each other and why their friendship will never end. I was the lover girl and she was the fighter. Where I was soft, Syria was the hard girl."I know." Elena sighed, hugging her tighter.She kissed the top of her head since she was technically taller than Elena."Come in." Elena smiled, taking the basket of pastry from her."Where's mom and dad?" She asked eagerly, skipping in."Oh, I think th

Elena woke up the next morning missing Vanessa. She had this pain in her heart, one she couldn't explain. It was odd and strange to her because she had never felt something like that before and she hated to think that something was wrong with her. Once, her mother had told her that the reason why we miss people, when the feeling came, was usually because something might not be going well for them but Elena didn't want that for Vanessa.Vanessa was a little girl and she shouldn't be made to pass through things that would actually see her struggling through life, she didn't want that for her but yet, this feeling within her refused to leave.''What's going on with Vanessa?'' Elena murmured.She rose up from her bed, picking up her phone even though she didn't know what to do with it. She wasn't about to call Andrea to find out, far from it because she never wanted to hear from him ever again. As she paced about in her room, racking her brain on who to call, an idea hit her.Lauren.Elen
