Prologue

It was almost midnight, and the silence around everywhere seemed so peaceful to her even when a heavy storm raged outside. It's rare for her to wake up when she is all cuddled up with her "cute teddy bear-like husband."

She suddenly felt fear enter her heart, which worried her to no end. Not that she's scared or afraid about certain things, but this is the kind of fear she experiences when anyone in her family is in trouble. She kept pulling her husband closer to her body to bury her fear, but that didn't help like always. She glanced at him, her cutie who is asleep hugging her like she was his teddy bear. She quickly dropped a kiss on his forehead and tried to get out of bed. She struggled for a few minutes and was successful.

She slowly put her pillow in his arms and tip-toed out of the room. She reached downstairs and sat on the sofa, she picked up her phone and the notifications on the screen made her stare at the screen with shock, She wondered why there were so many missed calls from his number, she immediately dialled back only to realise that the number wasn't getting connected. She was anxious and scared, this never happened and he would never call her during this time, today seeing suddenly 93 missed calls from him didn't settle well with her.

A loud banging voice of the door brought her out of her thoughts, she wondered who would come here to visit them during this time because only a few people know about them being here at this place currently, she rushed to open the door when the sound kept increasing and the minute she opened the door, she was stunned to speak anything.

Her baby boy was totally worn out, his pretty eyes were filled with fear and he looked so traumatised.

The boy hugged her, he literally jumped on her and started sobbing, she was too shocked to react but the wetness near her neck snapped her thoughts, she hugged him tight and kept caressing his back and whispered slowly,

"Bubba, what's wrong? Please stop crying baby, you are scaring mumma."

She didn't get any response from him, she sighed and collected her thoughts and closed the door with her free hand while she still kept holding him. She dragged him near the sofa and sat down with him, he still didn't let go of her. She was getting scared now, she asked in her normal tone,

"Baby please stop crying and say what happened,"

He didn't pull out of her embrace, he was still sobbing but replied in a very low voice

"She.., ssheee slllllapped mee., she she she tried to tooo"

And he fainted without completing what he was about to say and she was stunned & shocked, she only had one thought going on in her mind.,

"Is history repeating?"

And the thought made her shiver and froze, her blood ran cold. She wasn't prepared to go through that traumatic period of their lives again.
