_Nothing weakens the heart of someone in love than loving in obscurity_


EPISODE 4

She couldn’t control her tears when we both looked at each other eyeball to eyeball. Abigail is my younger sister, I grabbed her and kissed her fore head. ‘Tell me why you are crying Abigail, I turned to ask my mum why Abigail was crying but her eyes changed like a cloud about to rain. Immediately I knew something bad had happened behind me. ‘How is Philip and his wife? I asked.’ They’re fine my mum responded. ‘What of aunty Felicia? She’s fine too.’ my mum assured me. Then what must have gone wrong? I thought within me.....
