2023-12-01 19:58:58His eyes are red
He is a piece of shit anyway
Mr Andrew pulled me by my left hand and Mason held my right hand
What the fuck is happening ?
What is Mason doing?
I look back and forth . It was like they were having a stare contest
"Mason let me go" I whispered and Mr Andrew let me go instead
That's weird and so off of him . Something is wrong somewhere
"Your father?" Mason raised a brow
Oh my gosh he can do that?
that's so cute
Jessica concentrate
Right
"No" I finally replied ,to be very honest I don't know what Mr Andrew is to me but I'm sure of one thing . This man isn't my father
Mason frowned his face in confusion
"Is okay, thank- " his brows scrunched immediately. I don't want to give him an opportunity to say something stupid again
"go home" he still didn't move. it was like he was thinking of something
"Don't worry I know the man " I said wanting him to leave before Mr Andrew losses it. He just glared at me without saying anything like he wasn't buying my statement . It felt like he wanted to say something but he couldn't find what to say ,then he left
Now I'm going to face Mr Andrew. Any rash thing I'm calling the police on him but there is no active emergency number in Nigeria.
I have to come up with a plan if he acts stupid
I closed the second door of the parlour turning I bumped into Mr Andrew he recked of alcohol .
He kept staring at me then I decided to speak first" what do you want?"
"Who was that?"
"A class mate " I tried to sound polite remembering last time
He took two steps closer and I gulped in fear , my heart started beating faster .
He licked his hands
Disgusting
Before I could say 'Charles tom'
I received an open handed blow on my face . It was so heavy that it made me to fall . I was still holding my cheek out of shock .
I was polite to him so why did he slap me . My vision got blurry tears streamed down my cheeks . I tried hiding it so it won't look like I'm very helpless
Knock! Knock!
" Check whose at the door " Mr Andrew commanded. I picked my self from the floor and obeyed him
"Mason what-"
"Are you ok" I immediately wiped my face at his statement
"Am ok"
"Jessica you are-" I cut him off
"Mason can I help you " I yelled rudely . His face grew cold immediately . I didn't mean to make him angry but I don't want to go around sharing my problems with everyone
Gosh my life is a mess
"Your book " he threw it and I caught it.
Mason turned to leave .
I was about to close the door Someone held the door.
Mason?
"Are you sure you're ok" he asked purely concerned
"Jessica" Mr Andrew yelled from inside
"I'm okay go " I yelled jamming the door not giving him an opportunity to hold it again
I'm sorry Mason
"Now where were we " Mr Andrew asked coming closer to me and I just lowered my gaze
Knock! knock!
Mr Andrew went to check the door this time
I hope is not Mason
"Party of two, party of fun" Mr Andrew laughed at his own useless joke
"Mrs Frances please come in"
My mum?
"Both of you take a seat" Mr Andrew commanded and surprisingly my mum obeyed without questioning him
Wow , things keep getting weirder
"What is wrong with you mum? No I refuse to take a seat"Walking out of this godamn palor a loud sound stopped
Mr Andrew was holding a belt
Did he just use that on her ?
Why isn't she moving ?
I hate this woman , she's a coward
He hit her again and I closed my eyes as tears streamed down.
Why I'm I crying for this ungrateful woman .
"Now you will drink too to save her" he chuckled as he tighted the grip of the belt and my mom just sat there helplessly , trying to cover her face from his attack
Does this happen often?
Why is she acting like is normal ?
"Why should I do that" I replied
"If you can take 5 shots of this" he pointed at a drink I haven't seen before "I will leave your mom "
I tightened my fist and my jaw clenched ,I was ready to walk out again then he wiped her harder and she sobbed
"You son of a bitch leave her alone" I murmured
My mom finally said something "Jessica you don't have to do it "
"Shh Mrs Frances you're no fun " Mr Andrew lamented
I wanted to walk out but my legs couldn't move
I can't leave her in this condition . No matter how much I hate her I can't see her getting hurt like this when I know I can do something to help
"I'm ready " I sat at the dinning table
I took the first glass it burnt but not as much as my hatred for Mr Andrew
I'm at my fourth glass now . I feel completely wasted . My eyes are turning and I don't think I can stand on my own
I forced my self to swallow the fifth one and it hurt so much
My mum looked at me with so much pity.
I felt somebody touching me from behind . He was lingering his hand all over me
"Mr Andrew what are you doing" My mum stammered
He started unbuttoning my shirt and I reacted by standing up but I feel so weak . I wanted to run but I didn't find the energy
My mum stood and hit Mr Andrew with a mop
"Jessica run " she yelled. I managed to pick my self and raced for the door.
I tried to run faster than I was doing but legs are telling me otherwise. They are swaying left and right. No matter how many steps I take, I’m no closer to where I want to be.
The pharmacy
Where the fuck is the gate?
I hit a car and fell
Is that even a car ?
Someone lifts me and Then all goes dark.

She boarded the bus and kept her luggage in the compartment of the single seat reserved for her. Ensured that it was safe and stepped out.

Caroline stuck to the shadows as she looked grimly at her scrying map. The red marker shone brighter the closer she got to her mark and for a moment she was tempted to send for the elder council. But the abundance of bad leads made the high priestess pause, and reconsider her position, loathing to rouse them from their beds on a chance that this time her locator had worked. Stepping nimbly through the brambles with a grace that belies her age, Caroline gave a sigh of relief as she exited the forest and gazed upon violet field. The gates to the pack pyres were open on the far end and she squinted her eyes in confusion, "They should be shut," She murmured and muttered " el gatus closeth" a simple spell to close doors, but nothing happened.

I rubbed my stomach. I try not to stress because it will affect my fetus. Yes, I should be grateful for the pregnancy I have been waiting for, but it complicates the situation. It would be a lie if I said I was fine. The problem is, I don’t know the father of my baby. Harvey? Or Sean?“Angel.”I found a woman who 3 days ago I was worried about childbirth. Yes, he is Renata. The nurse handed Renata to me, who was sitting in the garden area of the hospital.“Hey, Renata,” I said, glad that I finally had someone I could talk to. “How are you and your baby?”“We’re good, thanks to you,” Renata answered. “Thank you for praying for us and being
