Episode 28
Dayanna made way and a little boy walked up to Angela. He looked just like Dayanna. Anyone will know that it’s her son…
“Here she is” Dayanna said pointing at Angela.
“Angela here’s my cute son Richard but call him Richie” Dayanna said.
Angela crouched to the level of Richie and smiled at him.
“Hello Richie, how old are you?” She said.
“I’m 03” He replied holding his teddy bear.
Angela ruffled his hair.
“You’re such a cutie” She said.
Richard smiled and hugged her.
“I love you already. Please take care of my uncle, he has a fragile heart” Richard said.
“Sure I will” She replied and hugged him back too.
“Aww I need to take a selfie of this moment” Dayanna said and brought out her phone.
“Every body say cheese!!” She said.
“Cheese” They all said and she took a pic.
They walked in to the living room and sat down.
“So Angela tell me everything about you” Dayanna said
“Uh, it’ll be story for another time” She replied
They chatted happily that they didn’t see the time passing by today…
Richard walked up to Angela and pulled her hand. She nodded and obeyed him. They walked up to the hallway and stopped there.
“I know you’re not Angela” He said while caressing his teddy bear.
Angela froze as he heard it. How did this kid get to know about it…
“How do you know?” She asked shocked.
“I have some special abilities like you. I can see some visions through dreams just like you.” He replied.
“Please take care of uncle Jackie, a very evil person is about to emerge and if care isn’t taken he will harm uncle because of you” He said and finally looked up at Angela.
Angela stared at him confused…what’s this kid talking about??
“I know you don’t understand me but just reflect on what I just told you” He said and smiled.
He held her hand and then walked back to the others.
“Where have you two been?” Dayanna asked.
“I wanted to pee so I asked aunt Angela to guide me to the bathroom” He replied.
Angela nodded. He released Angela’s hand and then went to his mother who picked him up and placed him on her laps
Angela stared at him confused by what he just told her.
*What could this kid mean by what he said* She thought
She sat down with the others and began discussing though her mind lingered to what Richard said.
“I have to go and freshen up” Angela said and stood up then walked to her room.
She stripped and took a quick shower. After that she got dressed into her nightie and then glanced at the time. It was already 9pm and Jackson hasn’t return home.
Honestly she’s freaking out right now especially after what Richard said to her. What will happen to Jackson? Who is that evil person?
She closed her eyes and reminisced about the dream she had back then when she was still living with Paulina.
The dream where there’s a man who was tied in chains, covered in blood and where she was asked to shoot the man.
She gasped.
“Could it be Jackson the person I shot in my dreams?” She said to no one in particular.
That even scared her more.
“No that can’t be, even if he’s Jackson I won’t let that happen to him” She said again.
She nodded determinately.
*I need to clear off my mind from all this* She thought.
She picked up a robe and wore it over nightie before wearing her flip flops and then she walked out of the room.
She walked to the study room in order to pick a book to read. Lately she’s becoming a book addict…
She walked in and was surprised to see Theodore there.
“Theo what are you doing here? Your sister came to visit, you should be with them Right now” She said.
“I don’t feel like to besides I already saw them earlier when you were away” He said and and stood up from where he was sitting…
“Okay I just came to pick a book to read. I’ll be leaving now” She said and turned to leave but he caught her hand.
“Wait” He said. Angela looked at his hand holding hers and then back at his face.
“Can I ask you a question?” He said.
“Sure” She replied and stylishly took away her hand from his grip.
“Do you love Jackson” He asked.
Angela looked down, deep in thought weighing if she loves him or not.
“I don’t know” She replied honestly.
Theodore smiled at the answer. He took her hands and held it firmly such that she won’t get out of his grip.
Angela stared at him confused,,, hoping it’s not what she thinks…
“Angela, I think…I think I love you” He dropped the bombshell.
Angela tried to release his grip from her but it was too strong…
“Ever since that day where I saved you, you’ve always stayed in my mind. I know it’s crazy loving my brother’s wife but that’s how I feel” He said and pinned her on the wall…
“Theo, let me go” She said trying to push him away but he pinned her hands on the wall.
“Theo…
Before she could finish her words, he sealed her lips with his, kssing her hungrily…
Angela’s eyes grew wide open in surprise…
