Kiaraa walked in the dark,everywhere seems empty.she walked few steps suddenly a light came up everywhere.
She realised she was in their house.
"Come let's go "
" where are we going?" She heard voices they seems familiar to her ears.
She walk slowly to the direction.
"To see my mother?" The girl said holding a man hand.
"Really?why do you think, I need to see her."
Kiaraa heart raced as she heard his voice, she walked closer to them breaking the distance between them.
"Dad" she slowly called him..like she was very sure it was him.
They both suddenly turn to her,but she the face of the man the other girl was the same height with almost like her the difference was she was a bit skinny unlike Kiaraa.
"Do you know her ?" The girl asked him.
"No" he said without wasting time and turn to leave with her.
"Stopped " they halt and slowly turn to her.
"Dad that not me,You can't possibly be so close with someone else daughter " the last word was really had for her to say, she can't stand her father so close with anyone else except her.
Who the fuck is that.she thought,she couldn't see her face.
"If you don't come with me, I will cut my self" suddenly Kiaraa was holding a small knife she didn't know were is got that from either..
"Are you threatening him with that " the other girl laughed.
"Okayy fine I will cut myself " she close her eyes tight was ready to cut herself.
"Stop" he rush to her,but she as already cut her self...
Wait..why am I not feeling any pain,she open her eyes slowly...
There was blood on her hand...why am I not feeling pain,then whose blood is this.
"goshhh" the knife fell on the ground.." Why did you let me cut you " she cried.
" go away "the girl push her.
"Ahh"she scream as she fell to the ground.
The girl brought out a white piece of clothes from nowhere and tie around the bleeding hand. " I told you to stay away from him but you won't listen " he girl pointed her finger at her,like she was giving her warning of her life. She hated her for the this. But still couldn't see her face.
"Please don't take him away from me" she cried.
"Kiaraa...Kiaraa..wake up" Jason standing close to her bed side.
"Good morning sir " her maid and the house keeper greated as Alex in Kiaraa's room.
"She still sleeping?" Alex asked as he walk closer to Kiaraa who was still asleep on her bed.
" Yes, she as been sleeping for the past 15hrs..here is the doctor report " he brought out a letter from his suit pocket and hand over it to her father.
"Food posion???" He yelled as he turn his gaze to the housekeep and maid. They didn't dare to look at him in the eyes. Sarah nearly nearly enter the wall.
"Did you just say food posion" Kiaraa mother walked in ...
No response!!!!
Alex turn his attention to Kiaraa she was looking so pale..cold sweat was dozing on her forehead..suddenly she started breathing heavily..
" Turn on the Ac " Alex ordered.
"My princess " he held her hand and place the other on her forehead....
" I know you having a terrible dream don't be scared am here okay" He said that as if that would make her feel relaxed.
It works...
She open her eyes slowly.
Did he really follow me..waittt what about the other girl?
Her eyes searched the room, only for her to see the whole house in her room.why?? Wait..was it a dream..what happened to me?
"My princess "he broke her train of thoughts.
"Dad" she answered.
I see you are finally awake "he gently ran his fingers through her hair.
"Uhmm" she nodded.
"Let me help you up " her dad help her seat up..Jason helped her put the pillow behind her.
"My baby" her mother finally got the chance to speak to her daughter.
" Are you okay, you hurt anywhere " she sat her bed side. Suddenly she remembered she cut her father in her dream.. her gaze fell on the spot where she had cut him.
Jesus christ did I really cut him.. can't possibly be real..
"Dad did I really.." before she could finish...
"Ohhh about this?" He lifted his injured arm.. " I got a little cut in the office it fine dear " he smiled.
In office?
"Would be downstairs okay..get dressed let's have breakfast together "
"Breakfast??" She was taken aback
When did I have Lunch with Jason and now it morning. Her eyes drafted to Jason who was still standing next to her bed side..
"Yeah it's morning" he continued " you have been asleep for 14hrs 5mins " he specified as if he knew what she was about to ask.
"What? "
*****
Alex walked out of the bathroom his waist wrapped with a white towel while drying his hair with a smaller towel.
His phone chimes as messages pop in on his phone ..he took his phone on the bed it was Ivan ..she was replying his text he sent few minutes ago..
"He doing fine,but we are not close yet...I guess his not comfortable with me being around him"
He smirked as he read her messages.
"Okay just make sure you are close with him ,I will try talking to him so he can trust you " Alex texted her back..
He move to his call log and dial the doctor number who just left their house....
"Hello doctor,am so sorry to bother you " he paused he was surprised by the way he spoke he normally don't apologise to others.
"Hello Mr Alexander..it good speaking to you on the phone,is there anything you want me to do " the doctor said from the other side.
"Yes, I need you to check out something..but first I want you to come to my house so will could discuss about it" Alex don't want to discuss about it on his phone with him.
He pressed the end button,suddenly he heard his room door open.
It was Jessica his wife.the room was dim,despite it being morning,because there was no light. She took of her night rope she now left with panty,he didn't notice her sudden movement.
"Hey Babe" she called him,as she walked in the room.
No response!!! As she walked into him,her head bumped against his bare chest.
"Ouchhh..you are here" she said.
"Uhmm" that was his only reply.
She could see clearly now her eyes gaze on his bare chest as she gently touched his bare chest with her hand.
"What are you doing" Alex held her hand. "Do you want to get me dressed up" Alex asked teasing her.
"No I just want to touch you " Jessica voice change like she scared how he would react.
"I don't remember when last I touched you....and you never me " Alex smirked and pulled her close to himself. He notice she was half naked.
"You mean like this ?"His warm breath tickled her skin as he whispered in her ear.
"Nah I want more than that " her gaze fell on his lips as she intended on kissing him.
There lips nearly brushed each other.
He trailed his lips against her neck, his gentle kisses sending shivers down her spine..
"Did you wear panty all the from your room down here" he asked.
"Nah...you don't want someone else to your wife on panty " she try to teased him,he smirked. He didn't give her the answer she wanted.
She slid her arms around his neck wanting more of kisses.
Alex knew what she wanted,the woman standing in front of him as never intense attraction in him.
She slowly move her down his towel wanted to ake it off he held her hand.
" Don't you want me ?" Jessica said.
"Alex it been 17years we got married.you never for once touch me" Jessica's voice cracked with emotion as tears welled up in her eyes.
"Nah it just 7years " Alexander specified as he released his hand around her waist.
"Still,people thought we are married for long " Jessica said.
" Yeah that's what people think, remember our deal..remember why we are married and that what is keeping together " Alex almost voice out.
A fragile truce held them together as a couple.
Alex never loved Jessica, Alex had never reciprocated her feelings, leaving her trapped in a cycle of unrequited love.
Alex intended to spend the rest of his life with his first love ..they dated only few months..later on she vanished he knew nothing about her whereabouts.
Months of searching finally led him to her uncle's house, where he hoped to find the answers he was looking for. He meet her uncle's wife Victoria.
"Good afternoon Ma " he greeted.
"Hello dear, what can I do for you?" Victoria answered
"Am here to see Miranda " he requested.
Victoria was silent for awhile,she was wondering why a handsome and well gentleman would be looking for Mira, she hated
her to the core.
