CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY - ONE" Hi!" Sara said to Samantha, the moment she noticed her stand behind Damien, the new guy who had just joined them in the building. She didn't know that he was in with someone else, she had thought that he was a bachelor.' Did he have a girlfriend or was the lady inside the house with him his wife?' Sara thought as she stared at both of them before her.She gave her nicest smile to the young lady who emerged from behind her new neighbour. She was able to finally see her face and she could see that she was a very young and beautiful woman." Hi!" Samantha greeted the stranger in return. She didn't know that she had seen her, she only wanted to take a sneak peak but it seemed she had seen her already. There was no need turning back anymore." I didn't know you had a girlfriend" Sara told Damien with her eyes still fixed on Samantha who was not entirely comfortable with the way she was looking at her.' She seems to be checking me out' thought Samant

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY - THREE" Are you okay?" Samantha asked him. They were at the corner of the streets, waiting for any taxi in sight. It was getting dark already and Daniel knew that she had to be at home anytime soon before it gets any darker.While they continued moving, Samantha noticed that Damien had stayed quiet all of a sudden. He wasn't responding to her endless chatter which she had been using to keep them both busy as they walked together.She turned her face towards his direction and that was when she noticed that he was a few feet apart from her and, he had his right hand on his head.His brows were scrunched up in an arc in a way that showed that he was in pain. Was he in pain? Was he hurt? What was going on? All of these thoughts were running through her mind as she walked towards his direction in a bid to help him.'Something must be wrong with him?' she thought as she stopped to hold him." Are you okay? Sam!!" She called, feeling scared all of a sudde

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY - FIVEIt was almost close to the end of the year. How time flies so fast, just few months back, the year had only begun and now, it was gradually rolling into its end in the fastest way.Agatha stood by the swimming pool outside the house thinking about the past events that had happened so far.So many things that had went on in her life and that of her husband. " Mum" she heard someone call from behind her. It was Alex." Alex" she called him return the moment he came in view. " What are you doing alone by the pool?" He asked her. Was she out thinking again like she always did most of the times when she was alone.He didn't want her getting sad or worked up anymore." I just needed fresh air…that's all" she said, wearing a huge and very bright smile on her face as she stared at the young gentleman who had turned out to be the only one she could call child.Ever since Damien had ceased to be a part of their life, Alex had been the source of solace an

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY - SEVENIt was daybreak already and just as promised, Agatha had woken up early enough to prepare so she could go to visit her late son's grave. She had not visited the place as often as she'd want and to make up for it she had to be there today.Alexander had also agreed to accompany her to the place. They'd go together today although most times she preferred going alone with just a bodyguard assigned to accompany her everytime she went. Today, she had told the servants not to worry about following her. They had been informed already that the madam of the house would be accompanied by the second young master, Alex." Your food is ready ma'am" the maid said to her the moment she walked outside her room and stepped her foot towards the stairs." Alright" she replied simply but she wasn't sure she needed any meal at the moment before they leave. " We'll set the dining as soon as possible" the maid said further and was about to turn to leave when Agatha

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY - NINEAlex did just as he had promised, he not only accompanied his mother but also drove her to the place they were both headed. When they got there, he got down hurriedly from the car after he had taken his time to park in a very comfortable place. Getting down, he went over to the side his mother was seated so he could open the door for her to come down.He helped her out by holding her hands so she would be comfortable. When he was done, he shut the door close after her and they both marched towards the entrance that led to the cemetery.Agatha carried her legs lightly as she walked behind her son. The entire place was empty and there seemed to be a very loud defeaning silence and an atmosphere of gloom that rented the area.The cool morning breeze that blew towards her made her feel a kind of chill the moment they got closer to the private space that was prepared for the late Silverio's heir who laid quietly in his sleep. His grave was separated
