I SHOULD HAVE LEFT HIM TO DIE.
I SHOULD HAVE LEFT HIM TO DIE.Mrs Adams was so worried about the whereabouts of her son. She had been in the sitting room since Sammy ran out of the house. She was pacing and would not stop trying his number, which rang and rang, but no answer.Mrs Adams was worried so much that she was shedding tears until the night when they were supposed to be at the airport to board the plane to New York City, but here she was still at home.Mrs Klein returned from her convenience shopping with her son, Vince, and she was not expecting to see Mrs Adams, she had thought that they must have left, so that she would have her son to herself.Vince was wearing a pair of black leather pants and a jacket, his inner shirt was white. His short hair was styled to the back behind him, and he looked more like a calm guy, apart from his face, which was gently dropped, and his eyelashes that were flabbed downward.He had walked around the mall along with his mum with shopping bags in his hands, and he was tired
I WANT TO GO WITH HIM.
I WANT TO GO WITH HIM."What the living hell happened to Sammy? Why are his legs hung up like that? Why are there bruises on his face and hands?" Vince asked his mum."I don't know, stay here, I will go and see the doctor with Mrs Adams.""Okay, mum." Vince quietly entered the ward and Mrs Klein dragged the crying Mrs Adams along. They were led to the doctor's office."Please, sit down." The doctor offered them a chair each. They sat down."What happened to the boy? Did he get beaten by a lion?" Mrs Klein asked the doctor. That was no joke, Sammy did look like that."Who are you to the patient?" The doctor asked both women."I am his mother." Mrs Adams said tearfully."And I am his best friend's mother. We all live together." Mrs Klein added."That means, I can tell you things. I will pray to you both that you calm down and listen carefully."They nodded to him."Your son," He paused and looked at one woman to another, "Was raped.""How is that possible? Isn't he supposed to be the on
SEPARATION IS BETTER.
SEPARATION IS BETTER.Everything happened so fast, and before Vince could understand what was going on, he was at the airport with tears in his eyes, watching as his best and only friend was taken into the plane for relocation and treatment to a country different from his.He was broken, and he turned to Mrs Klein, "Can't I follow him, mum? I will be fine and that is why I made sure that our plane is available. I promise you, Mum, I will be fine."Mrs Klein refused to look at him and she replied to him, "No, you cannot go with him, you have to stay here with me. And don't think that I don't know that you called your father to ask permission from him. Remember, you're here with me and your dad is not here, so I get to make the rules."Vince knew that it was all, he couldn't go to New York City, and he couldn't think of what to do either. He turned to the car and ran to escape into it.Mrs Klein pulled a blind eye to the broken nature of her son, saying in her mind, "I only want him for
HE MUST RECOVER ALONE.
HE MUST RECOVER ALONE.Carl turned to the person who asked him the question and he pulled on a smile immediately, "Aunt." He spoke firmly. "You're here."Mrs Klein refused to be fooled, "Do you just wish death for my son?""No, Aunt, not literally death. It's just a thing we youngsters say among ourselves, we say it, but don't mean it.""I hope so." She replied to him and walked by him. She halted at the same step Vince halted and asked Carl, "When are you returning home?""Tomorrow, Aunt.""Very good, because I can tell that your father misses you. He'll need you around to learn about how to manage his business, just the way my husband is thinking of training Vince, my son, his heir.""I understand, Aunt."Mrs Klein walked away from Carl.Carl let out a sigh, "Like mother like son, I'll have to return home tomorrow. I should tell dad about it."He brought out his phone from his pocket, but instead, it was Sammy's phone. He growled, "I forgot to return the phone."He quickly took the
ARROGANT MR CLINTON.
ARROGANT MR CLINTON.Sammy did not wake up even after his conversation with Mrs Adams, his eyes were tightly closed, but through the machine, one could tell that he was breathing fine.It was two weeks and Mrs Adams was to resume work in the general mansion in New York City.She had dressed up and was driving to the location that her car's GPS was directing her to.Mrs Adams had not heard from either Mrs Klein or her son, Vince, no matter how much she tried to reach them, though she never grumbled for money. It was like a fixed thing for her, she received an alert from Mrs Klein almost every day.Mrs Klein got to the mansion in the States and parked her car among the other workers' vehicles in the workers' section. She alighted and took her walk away from the garage with her bag.Today, she was not to resume work, she was only to show herself and talk about her payment with the man in charge of the house. She had not yet concluded in her heart about the pay she should ask for. The Kle
THERE IS NO VINCE HERE.
THERE IS NO VINCE HERE.Everything was happening so fast, and Mrs Adams began to work under no supervision. She was still trying to reach out to Mrs Klein and Vince, but was unable to do so.She got to work today without visiting Sammy first in the hospital, and bumped into Clinton who was going out with a hot girl by his side. Unlike the punk way he dressed the first time Mrs Adams met him, he was dressed in a black suit. He had no tie locked around his neck, and a few of his white shirt's buttons were undone.He had one of his hands holding the hand of the girl beside him, and the other hand was trapped inside his pants pocket."Oh, Mrs Adams, you're just the woman I want to see.""Good morning, Mr Clinton. You are looking good."He rolled his eyes at her, "I'm always looking good, but I don't do older women."Mrs Adams's eyes popped out of their sockets when she put meaning into what he was saying, "I never...""Sh!" He hushed her, "Now, listen up, Mrs Klein called me, and she said
ONLY VINCE'S NAME COULD HEAL HIM.
ONLY VINCE'S NAME COULD HEAL HIM.Mrs Adams knew for one that for the doctor to request an audience with her, something terrible must be happening to her son, but she went. Her sweaty hands were holding the hems of her top when she was moving forward. Her legs wobbled behind her, and her head felt heavy from thinking of everything possible that might be going on.She dreaded meeting with the doctor so much.The knock she left on the door of the doctor's office when she got there was such a weak one, and hearing it by the doctor was a mystery."Come in, Mrs." The doctor answered from inside.Mrs Adams took her time before she opened the door. Before that, she had put on a feigned calm look, perfectly hiding her fright under a wide smile."Doctor, you called for me." She said to the doctor as soon as she entered into the space for the office."Please," He gestured towards a seat before him. She sat down."Is there any problem, doc?""Ahem," He cleared his throat, "Your son might be wors
VINCE CALLED.
VINCE CALLED.It all felt like something that could happen immediately— Sammy's sickness. Mrs Adams thought that if she could be saying Vince's name every time to her son, he would want to heal faster, but it didn't work that way.Every time she used Vince's name, Sammy would react to it, but when he realised that there was no Vince around, he would crawl back into his shell. A shallower shell he had built for himself.Sammy had been discharged from the hospital with a standby nurse with him to take care of him and always bring him to his therapy. He could walk— very slowly, and could do a lot of things by himself, but even after months of it, he said nothing to anyone.It was like his voice was gone. That was not it, he found no reason to talk, and he had been indoors.Mrs Adams was dressed for work. She headed to Sammy's room and knocked on the door. "Son, are you in?"Not like Sammy would go anywhere.She was answered by the silence across the house.She sighed and opened the door.
AN UNCOMMON DRUG TO BE USED.
AN UNCOMMON DRUG TO BE USED.Sammy was in the room with two people, a man and a woman. They were therapists who had come to help him recover.The woman was sitting down on Sammy's dressing chair, and the man was standing beside the door. Sammy was sitting in his bed. His hands were firmly gripping his phone as though he wanted to snap it off, his gaze locked on the process of the phone, but his mind was so far away from the surroundings of the room."Do you want us to talk downstairs for easier convenience?" The woman asked Sammy, but he remained as he was."Then, I'll assume you're comfortable like this." She stated.She got hold of the edge of the chair she was sitting on and pulled the chair closer to Sammy.Sammy was not aware of the closure, "Hey." That was the word that got Sammy's attention. He jolted away, farther into the bed so abruptly, as if he was burned by her closeness."Relax, I will not hurt you." She assured him, but did not attempt to move her chair forward again.S
ALIVE AGAIN.
ALIVE AGAIN.Sammy took the phone from the therapist and fell to the floor to talk to Vince. He was all smiles that his lips were in their widest range, yet, Sammy was not tired of the smile. He never knew that he was smiling that much."Vince, hey." He said into the phone."Sammy, I was hearing your laughs. Are you okay?" Vince's words were laced with worry. A lot of worries that was dripping and had filled the floor."I was surprised you messaged me, I thought your mum didn't want you to.""Turns out you're not my mum's best friend, you're mine."Sammy's lips widened in an impossible wideness, both edges of his lips were almost touching his eyes."I knew you could not just abandon me here.""Never. You are the only one who knows me and still stays by my side." Vince said to Sammy."I couldn't leave," Sammy replied to him.They talked some more before the door of the room burst open, and Mrs Adams ran in. "Sammy." She called when she stepped in.When she saw her son and that he was o
