Chapter 11
By : Kebby NG Media Services
EMILY POV
I Woke up only to find the room empty ,it was morning and also it was the day which Cade told me that there would be a party.
I still keep on thinking about what he said last night.
he wouldn’t say a thing and I keep on thinking about what he said.
Where could he even be I thought as I went into the bath room to take a shower.
I was combing my hair when he walked into the room.
He didn’t even bother to acknowledge my presence.
He went to his ward robe,pull out his clothes and then went to bath room
It kind of felt weird there,I thought as I waited for him to be done in the bath room.
He came out only in his towel and I found my self drawn to look at him.
He walked around the room looking for some thing and then he looked up and caught me starring at him
“Why are you still here? And why are you looking at me,you always looked away each time I walked around you like this, so what’s the change?”
“I don’t know,I just find myself looking at you not for the other reason but for the scar on the abdomen”I said
“Oh this! Have even forgotten that it’s there!”he said as he went to the ward robe again
“I did that right?”I asked and he turned to stare at me
“Did what?”he asked
“I caused the incident that got you indebted to your step father'” I replied
“Oh! I thought you didn’t remember that part “he said
“I did and…………”
“And it doesn’t seem to matter, it’s all in the past now, I deserved what you did that day Emily, so don’t think about it”He said and turned to head back to the rest room.
“Won’t you tell me what you are planning to do today, you are driving me nuts by not saying a thing “I said
“Have already told you that you will surely know soon, stop questioning me and get some thing for the party “he said
“But am not allowed to go any where, you said that am not allowed to go any where “I said
“Well you are from now on, the guards will escourt you to the city and they will bring you back, don’t look at me like that! I have to ensure your safety at all cost, it’s only for this morning Emily, once the party is over,your life will be like it used to,I promise you that”He said and then left the room.
I stood in the room thinking about what he said, just what is Cade planning for tonight.

************************
“Wow the view is so beautiful” Gracie said as we both sat in the car heading for the town.
I wasnt really looking at the view,I was thinking about the party and what Cade plans to do
“Do you have any dress in mind Emily?”She asked but I wasn’t paying attention.
“Emily?”Gracie called pulling my arm and that brought me back to reality
“What’s wrong, you have been quiet the whole time”she said
“Nothing,!”I replied softly
“Don’t say that it’s nothing, I know you Emily and i know that some thing is bothering you”She said
“It’s about Cade right ? Are you still thinking of leaving him?”She asked when I didn’t give her a response
“Am not actually thinking of that ,am actually thinking of some thing else”I said softly
“What are you thinking of?”she asked
“Well it just that …….never mind”I said stopping my self.
I don’t want to burden Gracie and Micheal with what is going on with me and the less people that know the truth,the better
“Common,you were about saying some thing but you stopped,tell me what it is”she said
“He said he has a surprise for me tonight and have been wondering what it is”I lied quickly
“What do you think it could be?”She asked
“I don’t know, Cade is a mysterious guy, you can never tell what he is thinking”I said
“That is why you married him right, to get to solve all of his mysteries”she said tickling me a bit.
We got to a boutique and began to pick out what we will wear while the guards stood out side waiting for us.
I was heading to the rest room when I saw Lucy passing by.
If Lucy knew about me, she could help me clear some things that have been bothering me.
Though she might act crazy,I know for a fact that she is not crazy.
Quickly I took the boutique fire exit and pursued Lucy.
She had passed through a street and am sure that she is heading back to her house.
I got to her when she was climbing the hill that led to her house.
“Lucy , Lucy, Lucy”I called and when she saw me she stopped
“I have to ask you about some things”I said softly
“Go away”she said heading to her house
“Lucy please you have got to hear me out”I said as I block her path
“Go away! Go away!'”she yelled at me
“You knew who I was right? That was why you said that I have to remember and I have Remember, I have recovered my lost memory but some thing else is bothering me , I can’t remember all of it, I can’t remember how I lost my memory, how I ended up with my foster parents,the last thing I remember was the day of my mom funeral, no matter how hard I try I can’t remember the rest”
“You must know some thing Lucy, if you do ,please tell me”I cried out in desperation
“I don’t know any thing,leave me alone! Leave me alone”she yelled as she moved past me
“Please Lucy”I said holding her hand but she pushed me and my heel caught in a hole,making me fall and hitting my head on the floor.
“Are you okay! Are you okay!”Lucy asked as she knelt beside me
“Please tell me Lucy, tell me what you know”I begged as I held her hand.
“You are bIeeding!”she said as she quickly tied a clothe over my head.
“Don’t try to remember,you will only get hurt” she said as she held my hand
“Am already hurt, finding out that the man I love raped me and his parents killed my mom and try to kill me makes me hurt like hell ,getting to know what happen more wouldn’t hurt me, just tell me Lucy”I begged
“You are a good child and you deserve to be happy, as have said don’t dig into the past,it wouldn’t be good for you and a warning, some thing will happen tonight, be on alert okay!”She said and before I could say a thing, she ran off.
With my head hurting like hell,I began to head back to town
“Don’t try to remember,you will only get hurt”
Have been through hell when I got to remember what happened.
I couldn’t get to remember the rest and no matter how hard I try,I just can’t seem to get the puzzle.
If I should ask Cade, he might lie to me and his father also and i certainly can’t ask his mother too.
Lucy was my only source but for a reason she is keeping quiet too.
When will I get to remember it all,I thought as I got to the boutique only to see Gracie looking worried.
“Emily!”she yelled when she saw me
“Where have you been? Do you know how worried have been?”she asked as she pulled me into a hug
“Am sorry for not saying but I needed to do some thing? Where are the guards?”I asked
“Running around to look for you?”she said
“Poor thing”I said
“What happen to your head?”she asked
“I fell, it’s nothing serious, I will get it treated when we get back to the villa”I said
“Common let’s give the guard a call and head back for the party”Gracie said
As soon as we got back to the mansion, I went straight to the room and tried to remove the clothe Lucy had tied on my hair.
I was still trying to untie it when Cade walked into the room looking angry.
“I thought I told you to wait,I thought I told you that it will all change today”he said
“What are you saying?”
“Why did you try to run away, have told you that I will make every thing right, you didn’t have to run away”
“I didn’t want to…….”
“Do you know how worried I was? Is this your way of pay back Emily, you have no idea how worried I was and yet you …….you……come here”he said and before I could stop him,he drew me to him and hugged me tight.
