I could see the emotionless expression on their faces. It's so surprising, I know and I don't blame them either. And it's three times obvious on dad's face.　　He's just so surprised that none of us told him about our relationship. I know how it feels to be kept in the dark by your best friend and daughter. It hurts a lot.　　"You know, I don't have a problem with you hanging out with Luci or falling in love with him," he paused, I could feel his sadness and he was fighting it back. "You should have just told me. We promised ourselves no more secrets, right? Remember the night we went out for dinner, that was the same night we made the promise."　　He was crying, and watching him cry made me cry. We made that promise, and I failed it. We made that promise to make it up to each other all those years we never saw or spoke or had this father and daughters moment, yet. . .　　I couldn't even look at his face, his tears made me feel guilty for every thing and mostly for breaking our promise t

　　"I'm gonna kill the baby." I said, emotionless.　　"What?" They chorused.　　"You're not killing the child, Sonia." Mom yanked.　　"Well, I am. I'm killing it." I yanked back. "I will not carry a demon in my body for the sake of a so-called bargain."　　"You know what it means to kill that child. The master won't be happy when he finds out you killed his child." Cynthia warned me.　　"I don't wanna listen to bullshit. He took away the love of my life all for his stupid selfish gain and you want me to accept to the fact that I am going to marry him?" I shake my head. "No way is it happening, and no one is forcing me to keep this child with me."　　I dragged myself up, not minding the pains I caused to myself. I was ready to do whatever it is to eliminate the child and I don't fu*king care how sweet he is, he is dying for all I care.　　"Where are you going?" Mom asked.　　"To get a glass of water as you can see." I walked to the kitchen with a different agenda in mind. I just don't want any o

　　It was time to leave earth with Luci. I hugged every one, kissing them with a good bye kiss. I was gonna miss my real home and every one I ever loved.　　I hugged Cynthia for a long time, I was gonna miss her the most. She was the closest sister to me, and we had fun together more than anyone else.　　"Take good care of yourself for me." She said to me,　　"I will, and you too. Take care of your child."　　"I will."　　I broke the hug. "I have a big surprise for you, guess what it is."　　"You're full of surprises, Sonia, I can't tell what you've got for me this time."　　"I give you my company and every thing about it. You're in charge now."　　Cynthia gasped in surprise. " Really? You want me to handle your company?"　　I nodded my head.　　Her smile faded immediately. "You're gonna lose a lot of customers when they learn you're no longer in charge of the company."　　"It doesn't matter about the missing S, as long as Sotomayor still remains in the name, you're losing no customers. Why don't

　　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

　　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.
