PART ONE - He Defiled Me Another boring night with my stepfather, I grumbled and got my legs crossed. "Alicia!" "Speak of the devil." I muttered at the holler of my name as my stepfather barged in. "Dad -" I made to speak and he shut me up with a growl. "Don't "Dad" me, you fool! What in Bleep's sake did you serve me?" He showed the cornbread to me as he eyes moved. "I'm sorry, Dad, but that's all we have left." I managed to say, and his anger grew. "That's all we have left ?!" "I swallowed the lump in my throat and answered, "Y-yes," "And why are you shaking? Am I doing anything to you?!" "N-no," I stammered and took a step backwards. "You're not scared of me, are you?" He asked, his gaze fixed on my nips. Dang it! I should have worn PJ's, I thought, feeling uncomfortable in the transparent night gown I had on. There was no where to go as my stepfather made certain of that. I was trapped in my own room. And just before I could utter a word, he wrapped his arms around me; moving one hand on my backside as he gave my right cheek a light press - the other a lasting one. "Mm, you're so sweet!" His soft whispers came as I shuddered and gasped at the bulging muscles of his masculinity almost suffocating me. "Oh. Oh, damn!" A low moan escaped his lips as he nibbled on my left ear. My stepfather was a mean man, and never for once did he care about me. So why now?! He was the selfish kind, making me how Mum had fallen in love with him in the first place. Dad was way better - or would have been if I had gotten to be with him for so long. I couldn't believe today was the day that I was to lose my virginity to a man I had no feelings for - my own stepfather! Oh, what a cruel world we live in. If only Mum and Dad haven't died, I'd have been living a much better live now, I thought as tears trickled down my cheeks. "Oh, don't cry, baby. I'll take it really easy on you." He said in a mocking tone and gave my right nipple a pinch. "Dad!" I groaned at the sensation birthed by his actions, and he threw a deadly scowl at me. "How many times have I told you not to call me that?" He questioned aggressively and pushed me on the bed. " -Dad. Dad, please...!""Oh, I'm not even doing anything yet," He parted my legs roughly and got between them. "Ah, look how scared you are, my kitty." He said with a naughty smile. "Dad..." He cut me short. "Oh, no, no, honey. Call me... DADDY!" ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ The name's Alicia. I'm an orphan who has got no one but a horrible stepfather who wastes no time in making life a lot more difficult for her. I was born with a silver spoon, but unfortunately, I lost my parents before I even turned eighteen. I didn't get to know my dad really well as he died just before I clocked eight. Mom never made me feel any different as she showered me with all the love that I could ever ask for. And even when she got married again, she didn't stop. I was only twelve, and I was really happy that I was going to have a father again, totally unaware what the future held. When mom got married to my stepfather, I never expected him to be more of a grump. I was looking forward to having a father-daughter bond with him, but it turned out the opposite. Three years after my mom was married to my stepfather, she grew terribly ill and was diagnosed with cancer. I was so heartbroken when my stepfather broke the news to me, and I could see he felt not a single pain at the thought of my mother on the brink of death. I could see right through his eyes, but my dearest mother, who was deeply in love with this man couldn't see what her little girl could. At that time I knew not what glioblastoma was, but when I had asked my science teacher, he gave me just the answer I needed, giving me the chills at the thought of my poor mother dying anytime soon. There wasn't anything that I could do... not even the doctors, as my mom had hidden it for quite long. She died a year later, and I was left with no one other than my stepfather, who found a way to make my life a miserable one. ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ "Alicia!" I heard my stepfather call. I groaned and shook my head in annoyance as I tossed the broom to the side. "I'm coming." "Alicia!!" "Oh, I'm coming." I treated loudly and left for his study room. "Alicia, have you seen my credit card?" I shrugged my shoulders and said, "I don't know. Who would have taken it?" I stifled a laugh, pleased that my plan was working. Just who does he think he is trying to frustrate me? "You don't know?" His teeth clenched as I remained quiet. "You don't know, huh?" He repeated, expecting me to say something, which I did. "I said, I... don't... know!" I refused to be shaken, not this time. The girl he had known to be fearful, died the very night his filthy hands came on her. "Ugh. I see you've grown wings. You are so going to get it -" "Oh, I'm not scared!" He raised his hand to hit me as the sound of the doorbell came, making him lower his hand. "You should count yourself lucky, Miss!" He scoffed and made to answer the door, not before giving me order of not leaving the study room. I didn't know what had come over me to snap at him like that. I wasn't raised in that manner, and that was not the way my mom would have want me talking to someone way older than I was. I was getting bolder by the minute. And my vengeful side grew with each passing day. I wished to get back at him for every pain he had caused me, and for making me look like a broken toy in the hands of its owner. I had no one to talk to, not even my boyfriend, Richard. I also avoided him and could tell he was starting to notice. "Mr. Young, is Alice home?" I heard a familiar voice ask, and I moved out of the study room, forgetting all about my stepfather's order. "Richard?" I chimed in before my stepfather could make a sentence about me not being home. "Alice -" He called, a faint smile escaping my lips as I ran upstairs, not caring if he gets hurt. I wasn't ready to give answers to any question that morning, and was certainly not ready to tell him about my stepfather and I. The former, on the other hand, wouldn't stop getting me irritated all the time. We would make out on daily bases, and even when I was tired, he still wouldn't stop. I was starting to wonder if my life was really what it was, and wished he'd just disappear so I could have back my once peaceful life. "Uh, you were really hot today, babe." "Yeah." I gave a laconic reply to his compliment and made to sit up. Well, if he's looking for something other than that, he should go kiss the wall. "Just yeah?" He pulled me down on him and ran his fingers on the back side of my neck. "Yeah, why? Were you expecting something else?" I shrugged and got up from him again. "Oh, come on, baby. After the series of hot make out, do you still have to go about this?" "Yes, Ian. And you know why?!" "Well, tell me." He sat up and fixed his gaze on me, as I made sure to leave no part of my body uncovered. "Cause I hate you. I hate everything that you've put me through!" I spat with a disgusted look and made to get out of bed, as his hand caught mine. "Come on, baby. Don't be like that," He said. "You know, if your mother were to be alive, you wouldn't dare utter such in my face." My face reddened at the mention of my mother's name. "Exactly, stepfather! If my mother was here, I wouldn't be stuck in this situation!" Pain and shame flushed over me as tiny teardrops broke free from their glands. He let go of my hand, seeing how hurt and angry I was, as he made to comfort me. I gave him no chance, swiftly standing up, as I picked up my clothes from the floor and left his bedroom before he uttered anything else. For the rest of the day, I stayed up in my room, not wanting to come downstairs so I wouldn't have to face him. I only wanted to be left alone; alone with my thoughts. I was starting to miss the outside world; Richard not excluded, as I wished to be with him again, to feel his arms around me once more, and to tell him everything that I have been going through under the brute of a man that called himself my stepfather. I just couldn't bring myself to because Richard Miller was the one my heart belonged to - revealing the secret to him would be getting him hurt. Richard and I have been together right from kindergarten. And even in highschool, we were never apart. He was always there for me - like a brother, he was there - a best friend, he was also there. He's always been there for me, and I knew not telling him everything that has been going on, was the safest way for him not to get caught up in the middle. And for me not to lose him. The thought of him ran through my mind all morning as it gave me comfort. "I shouldn't be shutting him out," I said to myself as I thought aloud. ...not in this way, I thought inwardly again. I'm so sorry, Richard. I wish I could tell you everything that's been going on but I just can't. I hope that one day when things get better, we will be together again. I promise. "Looks like you're in a mood," The annoying voice of my stepfather jolted me back to reality. "Oh. It's you again." I shrugged and faced the other side. The soles of his shoes made an irritating noise on the carpet as he made towards me. "You know, you should stop being so stubborn and let me do whatever I want with you," "Cause I'm not your daughter?!" I turned to face him. "Tell me, stepfather. If your daughter was having an affair with a man about your age, would you have supported her?!" I asked, feeling annoyed, as he replied with a chuckle. "Well, why not? Everyone's got a choice to make." "God, you're so unbelievable." I scoffed and got up from where I laid. "You can have fun staying here, anyway. I'm going downstairs." "Not without a kiss," He grabbed my waist and pulled me into his arms. "Dad!" "Oh, don't stop calling me Ian now," He tickled me, and I burst out laughing. He swooped me up in his arms and turned around, making to place me on the bed as I grumbled. "Dad, I need to eat," "Oh, you can do that later, baby." He said, and sealed my lips with a kiss He leaned closer and whispered in my ears, as I nodded at his command and dared not object, lest he used the whip on me. I parted my legs for him and watched him take off his belt. "Ready?" I replied with a nod and laid still, though surprised he was actually being gentle. He planted light kisses on my legs as I tightened my lips, feeling his move slowly up, as I suddenly remembered I had nothing. It was too late reminding him of that, as a naughty grin broke out on his lips at the sight of my glistening trimmed pussy; the fleshy mound in between perfectly revealed from where it stood, its surface wet from his gentle touch, as I made to cover my legs at the sight of his lustful stare. "Just stay still," He spoke softly, having no hard time locating my hot centre. He gave a light press, gently applying pressure on it, and then a pinch, as I trembled and moaned. "Oh!" He withdrew his hand and looked up at me. "Hurts?" Well, that's a first. Why is he being so nice today? I wondered and uttered no word, letting him play with his toy. I felt his hand slide into my entrance, my walls ready to welcome him, as he began thrusting, slowly at first, then faster at the insertion of another, while his thumb worked on my throbbing "c". I could feel two hungry fingers inside of me, a third sliding smoothly in, followed by another; the whole slipping in and out of me at once, as my cavity felt like they were going to explode having them all in. "Ah-ahh-ahhh!" Moans of pleasure filled with pain, graced the hot air as I couldn't stop myself from dancing to his tune. I was so lost, till the point I knew not when my moans grew louder, caring not if people nearby could hear. My orgasm was building up really fast, and I knew that there was no way I could hold on much longer, as it won't be long before my juices came flowing onto the bedsheets. I braced myself, grabbing the sheets, my eyelids glued shut, as I felt something warm move out of me, followed my Ian's hand. I breathed heavily, hoping that wasn't the last, as Ian brought his lips on mine, as though he had read my mind, and began sucking wildly like his life depended on it. I could tell he was enjoying himself, and the way my legs were moving all over his face was turning him really on. We went all day, letting him take the lead. And I loved the fact that he didn't have to use that wholesome 6-inches of his inside of me, else I would have ran short of breath. I was enjoying the new him to my surprise, and I wondered what my poor mother would say if she saw her daughter and her husband having the best time of their lives under her roof. Know this. All this started with me not running away from home, and not telling anyone about what was going on inside. Even though a part of me didn't like what I was up against, the other wished to be Ian's submissive slave, not caring who ended up hurt. One day, I gathered up courage to visit Richard, only for me to find out that he and his family had moved away without saying goodbye. I was dumbfounded and hurt, knowing I'll never be able to see him again. ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ "Hey," "Hey." I sat up and got my hands folded. "Thought I might bring you some snacks. You've been in here for so long," My stepfather spoke nicely, placing the tray on my legs. I looked at the smoothie and crackers as that same feeling came again - "Excuse me." I got the tray off my legs immediately and rushed into the bathroom, as I began throwing up in the sink, my inside feeling really hot. "You okay there?" Ian walked in, and I didn't know what answer to give; was it to tell him that I was puking for the third time, or to tell him that I was sick of him hiding things from me? "You are definitely mocking me, aren't you?" I looked up with a weary smile and looked down again, this time sprinkling water on my face to keep it cool. "Why didn't you tell me that Mr. Miller and his family moved away?" I asked the minute I turned the water off. "Who? You mean Richard's family?" I snapped at him, so fed up with his pretence. "Don't act so dumb. I know you and the Miller's are pretty close." I said with eyes rolling. "And even if I did tell you, and even given you the letter he had left, what would you have done? Follow him?!" He questioned with rage, and my eyes widened. "R-Richard sent a letter? Richard sent a letter?!" I questioned twice, not believing he had kept that part from me, too. "Why didn't you tell me Richard came to say goodbye? Why, stepfather?!" I shouted on top of my voice as my heart felt heavy at that moment. "It still won't change anything." He said. "Oh, hell, it will!" I snapped and staggered backwards, clinging to the sink. "Are you really this selfish?" "Yes, Alice. I am! I'm so selfish that I can't let any man have you but me!" He yelled and gripped my hand. "That letter is better off in ashes than in your hands." "Y-you got rid of it?" "Yes!" "Oh, no. No, no! Now I'll never know what he wanted to say to me. How could you do such a thing? You're so heartless! I hate you. I really hate you!" I ranted and began hitting him. "Alice!" "Just leave me alone! I never want to see you again. Just go!" I gestured to the door, and he made no utterance but leave. I couldn't believe Richard was gone. I never should have pushed him away. I never should have. I cried all day, feeling sorry for my mistakes - for shutting him out completely. The next morning, the same thing happened again, leaving me with no option but to go see a doctor. ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ "How old are you again?" The doctor asked, and I answered, having nothing in mind. "I'm 18," "Have you had sex before?" My lips quivered, and I looked down at my fingers as they trembled nervously. Why is she asking me all this? "I-I don't know where you're getting at, doctor. What has this got to do with me feeling unwell?" "Well, Ms. Jones, you're three weeks pregnant." She broke the news to me, and my jaw dropped open. "I'm sorry, what?" "Yes. The test shows that you are." She handed the paper to me, as my eyes got fixed on it, not believing the records. "But... but it can't be possible, can it, doctor?" "Doctor Lopez," A nurse called to our attention. "We have an emergency -" I still held the paper in my hand as I walked down the hall. How will Ian react when he gets to know about this? No, I can't tell him. I can't let him know about this baby. Tears rolled down my face and I quickly wiped it off so no one will see it. You're three weeks pregnant - the doctor's voice echoed in my ears. I couldn't believe I was carrying a child inside of me - one to call my own. I was really happy, and at the same time scared; scared of being denied. But the thought of having my child being raised by a delusional man scared me even more. I wished for a better future, one he'd grow up to be better - or she. Whatever the baby came out as. I reached home to find my stepfather already there, and he asked me where I had gone to. "I went to the mart," I gave a reply, and showed him the grocery bags. It was a good thing that I had stopped by the market to buy some things that I'll be needing on my journey. Ian bought it and gave me a 'welcome' kiss, as he left for his study room. I quickly rushed upstairs, packed a few of my things, and tiptoed quietly down the stairs. I caught sight of him at the door, a mischievous grin seated upon his face, as he walked towards me and asked, "Just where do you think you're going?" "N-nowhere," I spoke haltingly as my legs trembled. "Doesn't seem like it," He said with a smirk, and I gathered up courage to speak. "I'm leaving, Ian. I can't stay here anymore...' "You ungrateful child!" He thundered and grabbed my wrist, the rage in his eyes clearly seen. He pulled me with him, a sharp groan escaping my lips as I pleaded for him to let me go. "Dad. Dad, please stop!" None of my pleas were heard. His hand tightened with it making red marks around mine, as he snatched my bag from me with the other, and lifted me up on his shoulder, as he carried me all the way up. I was really terrified about what he was going to do, and I felt really helpless, having no one rescue me from the devil's grasp. I pleaded for him to let me go, but he remained stubborn, slamming my body on his bed, as he came on top of me with full force, ripping my clothes off like an animal that he was. He pushed my legs apart, getting my pant ripped off in just a second, as he brought his briefs down, getting his enormous head released from the comfort of his boxers, as he drove roughly into me, showing no mercy. I had never seen that kind of rage in him before, not even when he got so mad at me. I knew at this point that I was going to pass out, so I was ready for anything - if only I'll be able to survive it...

PART TWO - Moving On "Mommy. Mommy, can we go outside and play?" "I'm coming, baby. Oh, and offload the canned sardines before anything. The mangoes should go in the crates." I said to the caller and ended the call. "Mommy," Alexa, my daughter called again, and I looked down at her. "Baby, what's that? And where's Alex?" I rolled my eyes around for him. "Ally's with aunt Maya, Mommy." I smiled and carried her. "Is that so, baby? Why aren't you with them, then?" "Cause Alex is making fun of me again." She rubbed her eyes. "Oh, he's just playing, baby. And no. You can't go outside. You know what Mommy says about going out to play." "I know." She said with a frown, as she played with her fingers. "How about this, hm? When we're done having lunch, we can go get some ice cream. You like that, huh?" "Uh-huh. Then we can go to the playground. Jason and Suzy will be there." "Of course, baby. Anything for you." I kissed her cheek. "Mommy. Mommy, where are you?" Tiny feet scampered towards us. "Oh, baby, stop running..." "Ooh... Ally's in trouble!" Alexa made fun of him, and I gave her left cheek a pinch. "Oh, stop teasing your brother, you. You want something, hon?" I looked down at Alex, and he answered with arms folded and face squeezed. "No," "Oh, look who's being silly," "Alexa?" "Oopsie!" The little girl laughed and buried her face in her palms. "Now, baby, what's with that face?" "Lexi broke my toy car." He whined, and they began arguing. "Did not!" "Did too! "Did not! "Did too! "Not!" "Too! "No -" "Okay, okay, guys. What really happened?" I brought Lexi down and made to listen. Turned out Alexa was the one that broke it, and after confessing to me that it wasn't intentional, she apologized to her brother, and they both hugged. "There. Now give Mommy a kiss." I positioned my cheeks as they planted a kiss on them together. Maya, my housekeeper, walked downstairs some minutes later, and I asked her to take them outside for a while... only for a while. Alex and Alexa were the charming angels God has blessed me with. They were six and a half years old and the thought of them growing up really fast made me happy. Alexa looked a lot like me while Alex had most of his father's features, that wasn't hidden. Sometimes, when I looked back at what had gone on in the past, I couldn't help but feel sorry about not telling Ian that I was pregnant when I left home. Well, at least my babies were better off without him. ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ "Mommy," "Mm, baby?" "Where's Daddy?" Alexa's question made me freeze. I wasn't expecting her to ask me such, and I didn't know the right answer to give. But I knew I had to say something. Moms ought to make things right. "Yes, Mommy. Tell us why we don't have a daddy like other kids at school." Alex dropped the building blocks he held in his hands and made to sit beside me. "Well, babies. Your dad traveled outside the country and he won't be coming back anytime soon," I tried to sound as convincing as possible. And besides, they're just kids. They'll believe anything. "Really, mommy?" Alexa's eyes shone with excitement. "Yes, baby." "But can we talk to him?" Alex suggested, and I tried not to frown. "No, sweetheart. Not for the mean time." I shook my head and patted his. "Now come on, you two. Let's go have some candies." "Yay! Candies, candies!" The twosome sang with delight, and I couldn't help but smile at how charming they looked. ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ Alex had this allergy problems when he got to eat too much sugar in a day. I had that same problem, and I had no idea Maya had bought some cotton candy for them that same day. I was really terrified when I found out he wasn't feeling well. And we were out of meds, so sweet were left with no choice but to go to the hospital. "Mommy, where are we?" I woke up to the sound of Alex's voice. "Sweedy, you're up. How are you feeling?' "Mm. I feel fine. Where is Lexi?" I smiled and answered, "Lexi's at home. She's with aunt Maya, baby." "Really, Mommy? Why aren't they here? Is Lexi still angry with me?" "Oh, come on, baby. You know your sister can never be angry with you." I rubbed his hand. The twins have never been apart for so long, so I knew exactly how he felt. "And why didn't you tell me you had cotton candy before? I told you not to have too much sugar, remember?" I scolded softly and he bowed his head. "I'm sorry, Mommy. I just didn't want you to shout." I laughed softly at his tender voice and gave his knuckle a rub. "It's okay, baby. "I'm just really glad you're okay. But know aunt Maya and I are going to have a chat. Why didn't she tell me that you guys had cotton candy?" "No, Mommy. It's not aunt Maya's fault. We told her we wanted to. Please don't shout at her." He begged with frightened eyes. "Oh, all right. I won't yell at her." I smiled and kissed his hand. "But I'm not going to die, right,Mommy?" I laughed at his funny question. "Of course not, sweetheart. You are not going to die. Mommy won't let anything happen to you." "She's right, you know." My heart skipped at the recognition of the voice. Richard - ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ "So, you're a... um... a" "A doctor?" He raised a brow, and I nodded. "Yes. That. You know, you look seasoned and all. Fresh even." I shrugged my shoulders and sighed with regret. "God, Richard. I have a lot to tell you." I felt really awkward being with him. I didn't expect us to meet like this, not in this way. But I was really happy seeing that he was living his dreams. "Me, too. I see you're married now. That's good." He said, the excitement in his voice not recognized. How am I to tell him that I'm not? I thought, and tucked my loose hair strand behind. So, um, how did you know I was here?" "My dad owns this hospital," He replied. "So I know every patient that goes in and out of it." He continued. "Uh. I see. Well, um, I have to go back to my son. He'll be probably needing me now." "Y-yeah. Sure." He added, "It's nice seeing you again, though." A blush coated my cheeks and I tucked my hand into my pants pockets and nodded in agreement. It was really nice seeing Richard again. He looked really different from the guy I knew. And I could say I missed seeing that jolly face of his, and I looked forward to seeing him again. ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ "Ally!" Alexa rushed towards us as she gave Alex a hug. "Welcome, aunt." "Oh, thank you." I sighed as I handed Maya my bag. "Hi, Mommy." "Hi, baby. Mm, I missed you." I bent forward to give her a kiss. "Hope you didn't give aunt Maya here any trouble?" "No, Mommy. You can ask her." She pointed to Maya and wrapped her tiny arms around my legs. "Ha-oh. I'll sure do that.." "Mommy, is Ally feeling okay now? I miss playing with him." "Uh-huh. I'm fine now. Right, mama?" Alex tugged at my coat. "Yes, baby. But the doctor said you need plenty of rest." "Awe." They said with puppy eyes, and I smiled and clung to their arms. "That's right, babies. Now let's go upstairs." ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ It's being a long day and I just couldn't wait to get back home to my kids. I walked to where my car was packed, making to open the door, as my keys slipped and fell to the ground. I groaned and arched forward, as some man made to help me with it. "I-Ian?" I gasped as he raised his head up. "Alice?" Guess I wasn't the only surprised one there. I couldn't believe I was staring right into the eyes of the man that had almost ruined my life - the man I have long forgotten. "Could I be dreaming?" I thought aloud. "No, Alice. You're not dreaming." He replied, like I was actually seeking for an answer. "I-I have to go," I breathed and collected my car keys from him, as he stopped me from taking any step. "Alice, wait..." "Let go of me, will you?!" I boiled and snatched my hand away. "Just who do you think you are?!" "Alicia," He started. "I know you're mad at me for everything, but please hear me out. I've been looking everywhere for you." "Looking everywhere for me?" I jeered at his remarks. "You've been looking everywhere for me?" "B-baby, please. Please just come back to me. I've missed you so much." He made to touch me, and I moved backwards, giving him a disdainful look. "I hate the day I ever called you dad. Aargh! You disgust me." I spat in his face and opened the car door. "Alicia, please..." "Just let me be. Humph!" I pushed him off and got into the car, ignoring the fact that he was there, as I drove off. I got home unwell, feeling completely out of mood, as I had Maya tend to the twins. I was burning up so fast as I was getting sick from the father of my kids being back again. I wondered what would happen if he got to know about Alex and Alexa, and was determined to keep them away from him. I sat up and looked to my right, as I caught sight of the pain pill that I had earlier kept on the stool. I made to pick it up as the door of my room came open. "Mommy?" "Hey, babies," I put down the pills and beckoned to them to come. "Thought you two might be asleep by now." "No, mommy. We want to stay with you." They both said, rushing towards me with happy giggles as they struggled for who will be first. It was really nice watching them do so, and it helped me ease my mind and made me not worry about anything... just for the time being. "I see you two are cozy in your jammies, huh?" "Yes, Mommy." They chorused. "Mommy, are you feeling well?" Alexa asked. "Yes, baby. Why did you ask?" "Your body's a little hot, you know." She pulled away from me and felt my neck with the back of her hand. "Mm-hmm. Mommy's okay." Deep down, I wasn't! Sometimes you had to lie to protect your kids. I wasn't going to let Ian know about them. I knew he would try taking them from me, so I couldn't risk that. I loved them, and I was ready to keep the truth from them if it meant not having them raised by a monster. ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ It was Common Wealth's day - the kids and I decided to spend the day at the park. Having given Maya a day off, we drove right off to Cumberland Falls. Richard and his family had also chosen the state park that day. I was happy to have bumped into him again, and he invited us to come stay with them. Mr and Mrs Miller were really happy on seeing me, and I was surprised that they were able to recognize me, even though it's been a long time. "So, Lisha. How's Kentucky treating you?" Mrs. Miller asked in her usual friendly tone, reminding me of the time she called me that. "Kentucky's a nice place." I took a brownie out of the flower plate in front of me and put into my mouth. I looked to where Alex and Alexa were playing on the slide as they waved at me and I waved back. "You know, a little birdie told me that you broke me Richy's heart." "Mum!" Richard shouted and I forced a smile. "Ha! Kidding." She raised the glass lemonade jug. "Lemonade? Anyone?" ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ The thought of what Richard's mother had said ran through my mind. I couldn't stop thinking about it, and I wondered if Richard had said just that, or she chose to make it up herself. Ian still pestered me, knowing that I was in Kentucky. I didn't know how he had gotten my address, but I didn't need anyone telling me that was a problem. "What are you doing here?" I asked disdainfully as he made to hug me. "Hey-hey," I stopped him immediately. "Just who the hell do you think you are trying to barge into my home?" "Baby, you have to listen to me..." "Just stop! Enough of the pretence. I am so fed up with you pestering me all the time. Haven't you had your fun?!" I spat and eyed him, as he made to kneel. "What the hell are you..." "Look. I'm sorry. I'm really sorry, okay? I know I've wronged you in so many ways. Just please come back. I promise to make things right when we're back together." 'Like we were ever a couple?" I said in a mocking tone with my eyebrows arched up. "I promise to do anything - anything just so I could get you back in my arms." "All you care about is my body, I-A-N. Now get out!" "Babe?" "I said, get out! Get out of my house before I call the cops!" I made to close the door and he stopped me. "Alicia, please..." "Mommy?" Oh, no. Why isn't Alex upstairs? "M-Mommy?" His eyes grew wide. "Goodbye, stepfather!" I slammed the door shut and turned around, panting for breath. "Mommy, who is that man?" "It's no one, baby. No one." I moved towards him and carried him. It seemed like I was running out of time, and I didn't want to think of the day I'd have to give up my precious babies... not to that monster! Alex and Alexa meant the world to me, and if anything ever happened to them, I don't know what I'll do. I was ready to fight for them, even if it meant taken my secret to the grave. Ian has no right over them, and I'll make sure that whatever happens, he'll never be able to get a hold of them! ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ ~~~ ☆ Oh, how time flies when the day goes by so fast. Who knew the twins seven-years old birthday party could turn out really stressful? They loved the presents I had given them, and Richard's weren't left out. He was growing fonder of them by the minute, and I could see the love he had for them was nothing but genuine. Richard and I became friends again not long after our encounter at the park. We've been really close... close not to have sex, though, as he wanted to keep things normal between us, which I understood. I told him everything about me, leaving the details of my past out, but going right ahead in telling him that I wasn't married, as he didn't mind. Our friendship was blossoming really well and my love for him was growing stronger by the minute. I couldn't think of a better man than he. And just as if he knew what I wished dearly for, he asked me to marry him in the sixth month of our friendship. "Richard?" I stared with eyes wide open as I looked down at him. "Yes, Alice. Marry me and make me the happiest man on earth." He smiled sweetly and I just gaped at him, thinking of what to say. Richard has being good to me... and also to my kids. But I was scared of giving in to his advances, and was scared of losing him again - but I had to do this. I couldn't say yes just yet. Not so sure if it was the right thing to do. "I'm sorry, Richard, b-but I can't," I moved backwards as tears trickled down my cheeks. "Huh? Why not, Alice?" He got up to his feet and clasped my arms. "Tell me. What's making you back out now?" "You won't understand!" My tears flowed even more, and I was left with no choice but to leave before he came running after me. Memories of seven years ago crowded my mind and I remembered how I had ignored his call and ran upstairs. I just didn't know why I was doing this, but a part of me knew that things were definitely going to get ugly if the truth ever came out - it'd be really drastic seeing my kids getting caught up in the middle of everything. 'Getting caught up', I emphasized, not feeling any better. I just wish things would be a lot more easier than it seemed and I wouldn't have to worry about anything, I stared blankly and wished, hoping my actions wouldn't make Richard hate me. |
