Narrator:

Jane stand in front of the door contemplating whether she should go

in or not. The police had come to her house to inquire about James.

She had told them that she knew nothing of his whereabout. Few minutes

after that, James had called her to meet him here. She wondered why he

wanted to meet her here which wasn't his house and why the police were

looking for him. She didn't want to come here but she thought she

should atleast tell him goodbye in person. She took in a deep breathe

then knocked on the door. When there was no answer, she decided to

just go home. As she turn in her heel to leave, the door click open.

"Jane, thank God you made it. I have missed you" James says. Jane and

James had been a couple for many years until James' infatuation of

winning his brother overcame his reasoning. James had planted Jane in

the hotel to gain steven's love and trust so that he would knscream

ut steven's every move. Jane had started to fall in love with Steven

but she was so scared of James, she couldn't stop going back to him.

"come in, baby" James says and open the door wider. All of jane's

danger alarms were blaring for her not to go in but she knew that now

she was already here, leaving would only make James angry and when

James gets angry, he hurts himself and people. She takes in a deep

breathe then walk into the house. As soon as she enters the house, she

gasps. Scattered everywhere on the floor were needles, empty bottles

of whiskey and cigarettes. She looks to James and that's when she

notice his glazed eyes. James walks towards her and it takes

everything in her not to run away.

"I've missed you Jane, have you missed me?" he asks while caressing

her face. When she doesn't reply, his eyes blazes with anger and his

hands go to her neck.

"i asked you a question!" he scream in her face and wrap his hand

around her neck. Jane knew that she had to leave now.

"i h--ave t-o go James." she stammers and James' face twist in anger.

His hand on her neck tightens and Jane start to choke.

"say you miss me" James instructs

"i-mish kwou" she chokes out. James' eyes bulge and he releases her

neck. Jane falls to the floor coughing.

"oh my God baby, are you ok? That wasn't me, it was them." he says and

kneels beside her. Jane flinches when he raises his hand to touch her

cheek. She drag her oxygen depleted body away from him and James'

hands fall. James points at his reflection in the mirror.

"its his fault Jane. You know I'll never hurt you" Jane look to the

mirror and then at James and he burst out in tears. Why haven't she

ever noticed this madness in James? She wondered. James hears her cry

and he kneels beside her.

"don't cry baby, I'll make everything go away" he grabs the nearest

bottle and smashes it on the floor. Jane moves back.

"no baby, its not for you. It for him" he says and starts using the

broken pieces to cut himself.

"don't worry, I'll get rid of him so you can love me again" he mumbles.

"stop!" Jane scream"what has gotten into you?"

she sobs. James looks at her with unfocused eyes. He looks at his body

arms and throws the broken bottle away.

"i don't know. I don't know. I cant stop Jane. I cant."he sobs then stop.

"this is their fault"he says

"their you James" Jane reasons.

"no, i meant Steven and my dad. They made me this way. My dad pushed

me to it. He must pay" he says and stands up. He picks his long sleeve

shirt from the arm of the only chair in the room and put it on without

flinching in pain.

"where are you going?"

"i just have to speak with my father." he says and hurry out of the

house. Jane's rushes after him to see him enter her car and drive off.

Jane goes back inside the house to pick her bag. She sees her car keys

inside and wonders how he's driving it. Her body is shaking violently

and her bag falls off her hand. She sit on the floor and search her

bag for her phone. She finally finds it. She dials steven's number but

he doesn't pick up. She keep on calling and when he still doesn't

answer, she text him.

James is going crazy. He is headed to your father's office. You have

to stop him. P.S. This is not for attention. Its true.

Toni:

I feel numb. Its been almost a week and i still cant stop thinking

about Steven. Everything reminds me of him. Even my morning sickness

reminds of our time at his suite before we went to Paris. Yesterday,

my mom had sent me to the market to get me out of the house. I had

agreed to go and i was fine until a young boy hawking garden egg asked

me if i wanted to buy some. I just burst out in tears right in the

middle of the market. The poor boy almost got beaten before i

explained to people that he didn't hurt me. Pregnancy hormones makes

it worse.

"antonia, why don't you meet him once?. You should hear from him first

before you judge"my mother says beside me. She has been trying to get

me to meet Steven for a week now.

"i cant see him mom, it still hurts"

"antonia, just meet him. It would give you closure. Also, if you don't

meet him atleast once, you may look back later in life and wonder what

would have happened if you met him. You say you love him but isn't

love trust?"

"he betrayed that trust mom"

"yes, i know but i still think you should meet him and listen to his

reasons. You have to take a leap and trust him for your babies and for

yourself" my mom does have a point but i don't trust myself with him.

If i meet him, i know i won't be able to walk away again. He could

still be using me. Nevertheless, i have to meet him to see if i can

savour our relationship so my children wouldn't live without a father.

"okay, mom. I'll do it. Atleast for my children"

"good girl" my mom says and smile at me.

I dial steven's number and i can hear the happiness in his voice when

i agree to meet him.

Fifty minutes later, i am still at the restaurant we are supposed to
