A Father's Rage
“Dad, I thought the doctor said you were too weak to use your hands or your mouth,” Luther asked, shock written all over his voice.Darwin tightened his hold on Luther’s arm, making him wince loudly in pain.“Ouch, dad, you are hurting me!” Luther pleaded.“I wish I could kill you this very minute,” Darwin said through clenched teeth, and when he was a little but satisfied with the pain he was inflicting on Luther, he let him go.Darwin understood that no matter how much pain he inflicted on Luther, it would not amount to the pain he was feeling. His chest was tight with anguish, making him pant heavily. Darwin had experienced all types of emotions all his life, but he had never felt this way.Worse, he was helpless and he felt useless.“You are a disappointment to me,” Darwin spat. “And I know that you are only here because she has left the house,” Darwin said.“I am deeply sorry, dad,” Luther apologized deeply.“Save your sorry ass apology! What the heck am I supposed to do with it,
Long-South Visitor
Darwin allowed the maid to feed him as though he was a child without making a fuss, and besides, it was believed that he was near invalid. According to what he heard the doctor say to Linnie, he would need a couple of days before he could start speaking and responding as before.And Darwin was going to bid his time.Darwin had been through the worst couple of days in his life. He never would have thought that this would be his end. Bowman had come into his ward and spoken to him at will, but that was nothing compared to the humiliation and pain that he faced the times that Linnie showed up.“The tiny bitch,” Darwin said to himself bitterly. “I made her who she is today. I gave her the opportunity to become a Kinkaid when I could have simply pushed her away along with Laxus, and now, she feels she can take charge,” Darwin added.He had been frustrated beyond words, and Darwin had wished that things hadn’t turned out the way they did.If only Bowman hadn’t sent his thug to ransack his o
Game Plan
Nessy’s cab arrived and picked her up from where she was hiding. She almost laughed at her situation; Laxus didn’t love her, and he had gone back to the woman that had always had her heart, and now that she had left, he might probably be jumping for joy.So why was she hiding from someone she didn’t think would even look for her in the first place?Anyway, Nessy took her mind away from Laxus and Linnie and focused on what she was going to do. Her heart was beating very fast as the cab drove closer to the hotel. She hadn’t set eyes on her father in ages. If the sound of his voice made her feel the way she felt, she could only imagine how seeing him physically would make her feel.But she was almost there, and there was no going back now.Nessy went straight to the receptionist and said, “I am here to see Sancho; he was recently lodged here, and he had been here for a couple of days now.”The receptionist looked at Nessy in a strange way, and Nessy understood that it was because of the
Whar Needs To Be Done
The phone rang until it went into voicemail without a response. Nessy sighed in relief.She was agitated after all, but then again, being agitated and nervous about speaking to her father wouldn’t solve the problem at hand, so she knew that she needed to try again.She would not stop until she had accomplished what she wanted to do.It did not matter to Nessy whether or not Laxus broke her heart and chose someone else over her, all she knew was that he didn’t deserve to suffer on her account.Nessy’s parents both failed her when they came together in agreement and shipped her off to Gary, and she went through hell living with him and serving him, but it hadn’t been able to break Nessy. All that she had been through hadn’t been enough to change the kind of person Nessy was.She was kind, compassionate, caring, and she believed that someone else shouldn’t have to suffer for her sake, which was why she was doing this.Regardless of what had transpired between Laxus and her, the fact stil
First Time In Years
Nessy settled in the small rented apartment in the outskirts of the city where she knew that she would not be found easily.She was very heavy with hurt and sadness.Thankfully, she had some money with her that provided her with the means to rent the apartment for as long as she would need it. She also had spare money that she could use to provide her basic needs before she concluded on what to do.As Nessy settled on her new bed, she curled up and allowed the tears to flow.Why wasn’t she lucky with love and family? All her life, she had had to be there for people and stay loyal to them, but they never returned the favor. From the moment she saw Laxus at Mr. Henry’s restaurant’s kitchen, she knew that she liked him and wanted to be his friend. She had to warm her way into his life, but Nessy hadn’t minded.She simply knew that Laxus was someone she wanted to get close to no matter how hard his exterior seemed.And now, she was left heartbroken.She couldn’t blame Laxus for not lovin
Be Careful
Laxus was even more restless than he had thought he would be. He tried calling Nessy several times, but her cell number wasn’t connecting.Where could she have gone when he needed her the most now? “Did she say where she was going?” Laxus asked the maid.“No, sir, she didn’t,” she answered.“But why would you just let her leave without stopping her or even letting me know about it or finding out where she was going to?” Laxus asked, almost snapping at her.He was becoming really frantic.This was not the time for Nessy to have pulled this stunt on him. They had a small fight, which he did admit now that he shouldn’t have left, but that was not enough reason for her to pack up her things and leave, except she was guilty of the accusation he labeled against her.“I am just a staff worker here, sir,” the maid stated calmly. “And besides, she is not a child, Mr. Laxus, she is an adult. If she decided not to tell me, I couldn’t have forced her,” she added.Laxus realized that his tone was
A Disappointment
Luther couldn’t stop thinking about the news that Linnie gave him.She was pregnant.He wanted to hit his head against the wall, but he couldn’t, so he punched the wall instead and allowed himself to suffer from the pain of it.“Damn you, Luther!” Luther cursed himself angrily.He hated himself deeply now. He shouldn’t have touched Linnie. The first time had been out of obligation, and Luther had been careful enough not to spill his seed in her. Then the second time when she had taken the initiative in his downcast state, Luther had earnestly hoped that it would yield to nothing, and he hadn’t.If he had simply controlled himself and not forced himself on her that day, it would not have resulted to pregnancy; the very thing that Luther had been avoiding since they got married. He had been enraged and embittered, and had wanted to unleash all of that on her.And now, that singular action had produced a result.“Damn you!” Luther cursed himself again.First of all, he was still dealing
Moved Out
Laxus woke up feeling worse than how he had slept. He knew that after his call with Bowman, he should have gone back home, but then he had lingered, and had to deal with Linnie.Hopefully, that would never make it out to the news.Laxus slept off at the early hours of the morning, making him to wake up later than usual. He could not get enough sleep last night. In fact, he had had difficulty sleeping, because he couldn’t stop thinking about everything that had happened.He could not understand why things had to be that way for him all that time.However, Laxus felt better emotionally. Linnie’s arrival might have been what he never wanted, but Laxus realized that it was what he needed. Now, he felt as though he had been released from the emotional bondage that she had kept him in for years.He didn’t even know that he was in an emotional bondage until that very night.Maybe that was the reason why he could not give Nessy the best of himself even though she had proven before the scandal
Untold Damage
Nessy woke up really early; way earlier than she had woken up in a really long time, and that was because she had had a rough night, and of course, it had been a while since she slept without Laxus’s hands wrapped around her body.She was deeply hurt.How could Laxus have treated her in that manner?Worse still, he had left the house and not returned. Nessy had been worried, but she was too hurt to call Laxus, so she had called Bowman instead.“I am worried about him, and I want to know if he is at your mansion to pass the night,” Nessy had asked.Bowman was a man that Laxus respected and Nessy could not have thought of any other place that Laxus could have done. It hurt her that instead of staying back in their home so that they could talk about what happened, he had barged out of the house.“He is not here, Nessy. He never came here after you both left,” Bowman had answered.Nessy was certain that Bowman had already heard what happened or had seen it from the news, and she wondered
