Sonia’s Saudade Chapter Three
Sonia's legs kept propelling her forward, deeper and deeper into the fields. Behind her were wild dogs, chasing not just her, but the flock of sheep, now scattered in varying directions."Help!", she cried out. Her legs dared to not give up on her; not at that moment.How did I even get here? She questioned herself. She turned back to keep in check the pace of the never-relenting dogs.They were gaining in on her.Bump! And Sonia was lying flat on the floor. She held her hand up her temple, nursing the stinging pain. Before her, sat a huge oak tree.I remembered running on an open field. How did this get here?!, she screamed at her insides.The intense stumps reminded her of the dogs chasing. There was no use trying to get up anymore. Her head was throbbing in pain and blood trickled down her blouse. Close to blacking out, she caught a glimpse of a man, standing at the perimeter of the fields, holding out his hands.To her."Save me," she managed to whisper. The dogs took a huge leap,
Sonia’s Saudade Chapter Two
Thursday mornings were meant to scoop up the rich brats and tourists who came all the way from distant cities and countries to explore the serene landscapes and locations in California, but Dele’s shoulders slumped immediately when he realised he had another motive for this very day.He needed to locate Sonia’s family. Just like he had done on previous mornings, Dele revisited the dreams he had, his psyche generating conflicting thoughts. He didn’t realise how many minutes he had spent standing in the same spot. The absolute silence explained to him that he had been left all alone—or not.Richie stepped out of his room, a sketchbook in one hand and his headset in another. He glared at Dele, examining his looks.“Too hot for an Uber driver.” Richie commented, settling on the couch. Dele rolled his eyes in irritation, spitting out the words that rolled into hot balls of fury just before he could stop them.“… and you are too built to be jobless.” Dele purred, staring down at his loosene
Sonia’s Saudade Chapter One
Dele stared at the front porch of his house, wondering if the neatly trimmed appearance of the red roses lining the front yard could make him smile. He turned off the car’s ignition and stepped out of the car, sighing heavily. He took a glance at the royal blue bag that sat at the backseat, his mind traveling back to the announcement the doctor had welcomed him with upon arriving at the hospital. “We couldn’t save her.” Dele slammed his fist against the car’s bonnet, raising his head immediately to see if he had perhaps alerted anyone nearby. The entrance door to his apartment creaked open, and the warmth smile dressed on his mother’s face set his heart at ease. Always the first to welcome him back home after the day’s work, Dele never forgot to plant kisses on her forehead every evening; not until he had knocked off the lady whom he had later found to be a journalist named Sonia Martins. He slammed the door carelessly and walked up to the porch sluggishly, his hands brushing past
Sonia’s Saudade Prologue
Twisting and turning became the first signs of movements from Sonia, her eyes refusing to flutter open. The words of her neighbour kept ringing in her head as she insisted on remaining in the church the previous day. “We are not ending the programme till midnight. You should go home.” Aromas of what she assumed to be buttermilk pancakes wafted up her nostrils. She lazily strained her muscle, scrunching up her nose. Mrs Duke’s pancakes were always her saving grace every morning; especially during the working days when she woke up late. Sonia’s eyes finally fluttered open, the feel of drowsiness immediately buried at the deepest depths of her mind. She stared at her alarm clock and grunted loudly. Again, she was going to be late for work. She jumped out of bed and scurried to the bathroom, fiddling with the series of toothbrushes she had neatly dressed on the glass holder. She scooped up the pink brush which she specifically uses on Mondays, grabbed the toothpaste and got herself ‘
