PRESENT DAY

Angela hold him so tight and continue to cry on his shoulder. Liam still shaking continued

" After that day, my Mom never talks to me again. I lose my nanny and my mother's love. I lost everything and my Dad phoned my best friend who was an Indian boy who came to my sch to study. He told him that I'm mentally unstable and he shouldn't walk with me cuz I will hurt him... I tried convincing him to believe me instead but his father refuses and send me away.." He paused and wipe his tears as more began to come. Angela hold him tight as she cry with him

" Don't pity me please.. don't love me please.. I can't love you back.. I have nothing to offer you .. I only have pains and sorrow for you.. I can't even you so your safety.. I'm trapped just like 23 years ago in the dark room of my father's warehouse.. pls Angela, hate me for your own sake.. I can't lose you too please don't love me. please!!!!.." He said as more tears poured uncontrollably.

" Xandro!!!.. I love you and only you. I don't care what your father wants to do with me but I won't stop loving you. not now and not ever. I don't need to have any reason to love you cuz you are special, you don't need to prove yourself to anybody cuz is completely waste of time because you are wonderful." She muttered slowly and squeeze his cheeks

" Angel... please... don't love m...e..." He whispered slowly shaking his head.

" Xandro... I .. love... you. I ..love.. you." she repeated it and kissed him. Liam closed his mouth and eyes for a few minutes to compose himself before he took hold of her neck and kissed her senselessly. he carried her roughly and lay her on the bed still kissing her roughly

Liam closed his eyes still lost in the kiss. he saw his wife in the pool of blood with his father laughing. he suddenly jerk back sweating in fear as Angela hold him still not to hurt himself. he gently push her away out of the room and locked the door.

Angela angrily took her car keys and drove to her in-law house. she opened the door to see her mother in law serving the table for herself with Don sitting calmly eating his food.

" You are both a disgrace of a parent. you are eating right? your son is dying in pain you caused him and you are eating. may it not be well with you both for causing this damage on him. you ruined him, you tried getting up and be different from an heartless man like you but you refused" she screamed at them but was cut off by Don's wife

" you will not talk to us in this rude less manner understood?'" She screamed at her

" Are you kidding? you will not scare me with just a slight threat madam. you are not worth to be a call a mother. you disgust me. even if this useless and heartless man treat his own son ruthlessly, aren't you suppose to use your brain to save your child? You practically gave birth to him, you alone knew how painful it was to give birth to child yet you behave just like your animalistic husband " Angela said with a gritted teeth.

" Do you realize that you are insulting a whole Don? have you forgotten?" Liam's mother commented

" And so? is he God? a king? or what? Who is he? because I don't understand? what's my own with Don or not? hasn't he done enough? what more is left for him to do? he know nothing to kill like an animal he is, forgetting that everyone has limit. One day, God will show you how powerful he is you despicable man and for you woman. I don't know you and I will never pray to know you cuz you are useless. How can a mother be this heartless? aren't you suppose to fight fir your son from this man? they said woman have the power to get what we want? you knew what to do, sacrifice to make for your son's sake but you choose to ignore it for what exactly? you are scared of this man? This good for nothing human being?" She asked pointing at Don with her finger as she stared at his wife angrily

" is my choice and not yours. you have no right to judge my judgement. I had no choice, I needed to cooperate with him for my son's sake" she replied

" well you didn't do it like a good mother should. i lost my Mom in a tender age and live with my stepmother who sadly your foolish husband killed just to get me to obey his instructions. you can't force people to go your way, everybody has different motives, desires, Destiny and you just came from no where to force them? A good person don't need to force anything in life, people love and rush towards him. you had choice mother but you just blindly ignored him when he needed you the most, now he " She said and took a deep breath to calm herself down.

" Get out!!!!..." Don stood up quick and shouted at her. he has had enough of her ruthless talks.

" I'm going Don, I have nothing to do in your house in the first place but mother you didn't do well for your only child. " she said and leave to the garage where she packed her car. She drove off to her house

Angela got home angrily took her phone and called the police, she reported Don to the authority. Liam heard her talking to the police on the phone and moved closer to her to ask her about it

" Angel!!.. why are you risking your life for nothing?" he asked staring at her

" Nothing? is something my love. you've suffered a lot for anything to be call nothing. Don has done enough and he will pay for what he has done for us. I swear or I'm not Angela Liam." She said gritting her teeth at him

" Angel why? is risky for you. " he said

" Risky? I don't care. I can't continue to fear the useless man, he needs to be punished for his actions. I promised myself that I will fight him till death for the death of my stepmother, my best friend, and my husband. that man will pay dearly" She shouted with anger in her voice.

Liam moved closer to her and hug her. so tight

" For us honey, I will see a therapist" he assured her smiling at her reaction.

" really? you will see a therapist? for me? but why" they will ask you questions " she replied

" I don't mind but I want to save myself and be the best husband for you angel" He said holding her two hands

" Thank you Xandro.. thank you.." She said and hugged him. he hug her back gently to calm himself.
