Walk
SARAH’S POV
I walked back to the house and inquired about Sean. When I found out he was in his office, I walked to my room and went directly to the washroom after taking my phone.
My plan was ready. I know what I have to do now, so after I message everything to Ivan and get his reply, everything will be ready in time. I switch off the phone and keep it in the same place as before.
I sat in the dining room while Bella was enjoying her food. I smiled looking at her plate, and now I know why she is eating without making any faces. It’s a freshly baked pizza. Her heaven.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Shaking my head, I look at the table, and the yummy spicy food is
waiting for me to devour, but before I start, I notice Sean when he walks down, looking tired.
I wonder why he has to be here when he can easily keep me here alone.
Oh, maybe he wants to be with his kids.
But doesn’t he miss his cold girlfriend? Well, poor her; his man was with me the whole time and even cheated on her with me.
I smirk, thinking how people are so selfish and mean.
Shaking my head, I concentrated on my meal while Sean did the same, looking at his phone.
I looked at Sean, and somewhere deep down in my heart, I felt a pang. How I wish things could have differed from what they are right now. How I wish he would’ve loved me the way other couples love each other.
I giggle, thinking about my destiny and how God has written it in his sour mood.
Sean peered at me, and my heart was flattered by his sight. How beautiful eyes are. And his lips were neither so full nor very thin. It’s just perfect. I notice his powerful arms. How they hide my petite in them. And how my body fit perfectly in his strong and secure arms.
The arms I started feeling secure in-and again, I was falling for them-are some of the most dangerous things for me right now. He crooks his eyebrow, asking me what happened after noticing a gaze on him and hearing my giggles. I shake my head at nothing.
Tears pooled in my eyes, and I gave a sad smile to myself while looking at my plate.
I walked towards the room while Sean went back to his study after playing with Bella. Standing at the window, I look far away. Only darkness was visible to me; nothing else
I look upon the sky, and moonlight is nowhere around, as clouds have embraced the moonlight today and darkness was shining at its peak.
Tomorrow, I will leave this place. The place I have already started liking and feeling like heaven
One of the best times I had on this island, and leaving it while never being able to come back, makes me sad every bit.
Ivan will come and take me, but again, I don’t want to depend on anyone anymore. He might take me out, but I don’t want to become a burden to him.
As soon as I get out of this place, I will go to a safe place where I can give birth to my babies and stay there till my health recovers.
This time I won’t hide like a scary cat. This time, I will face each one.
I am not alone now. I have my kids with me, and I am going to love them for eternity.
NEXT DAY
The day went the way it was going, but today I am going to make minor changes. I have not gone for a walk in the morning, so I will have to do it in the evening, and that’s when I am going to execute this plan.
I waited for the day to get over as soon as possible. And finally, it’s time.
I wore my walking shoes while taking the phone and kept it inside my pocket as I went down.
The sun was still up, and this is the right time for me to work on my plan.
I saw Bella jumping here and there while bothering Alvera, but this girl never stopped smiling. I can see she enjoys Bella’s company thoroughly.
She has somehow become a shadow of Bella, and I am grateful for that, as I know for a fact that I wouldn’t have been able to take care of her in this position.
“Alvera, I am craving your lasagne today. Can you please make it for me while I and Bella stroll around?” I asked with a polite smile.
Somewhere, my heart was breaking for my lie, and I did not enjoy leaving her here, but I know she won’t come with me, and she is too loyal to Sean.
“Sure.” She gleefully expressed her happiness, as this is the first time I have requested to do something. But I can’t deny that the day she makes the food, that meal is the one I enjoy the most.
I did a little chit-chat while looking out for Jemmy’s position, and when I found the right time, I went out.
“Come on, Bella,” I said, holding her hand.
She started walking with me and jumping here and there, and I started talking to her, informing her about the best view of the other side of the Beach. I knew she would ask to visit that place, and that’s what I wanted.
“Mommy, can we go there, please?” She asked to show me her puppy eyes, which always melt me like wax, and I hate that, but today I am happy.
“Baby, it’s a little far. Right uncle jammy?” I asked the guard who was tailing us behind.
We were padding toward the forest area, and slowly but gradually, my feet were reaching my destination.
But I know I have a long way to go. Moreover, I have to get rid of these guards, but not until I am near the place.
“Yes, baby Bella, it’s a little farther, and you might get tired. Tomorrow, I will take you there in a boat, okay?” Jammy loves her, but I know my girl is not as easy as it seems. And when he challenges her, she will get tired. I know she will do everything to prove him wrong. According to her now, she is a big girl, and she has to take responsibility for her sister or brother, so she needs to be strong to take care of them.
Alvera fills her head with these things, so she eats the food and does everything in her routine with no fuss, and that trick works like a charm.
“Mommy, can you tell him I am strong and I never get tired, ever? I am a big girl.” She spoke dramatically, making me and Jammy laugh.
“Okay, let’s go then,” I said, and I started walking.
Mam, but it’s not safe for you to walk this much.” Jammy stiffened upon hearing my words and spoke while looking worried the moment I gave my green signal to Bella.
He touched his back and cursed in a low voice. As I can see, he forgot his walkie-talkie back there.
I smirk internally, but nothing comes to my face.
I don’t go very far from the security, and somewhere they’ve all become a little easier. It’s been many months since I have been here and following the same routine. And I have always noticed he does not carry the walkie-talkie every time. He just follows me behind, and some or other security guard is always around, but today I just came to this site, and this poor fellow did not know my plan.
I have been keeping my eyes on him for the last half an hour, and the moment I noticed he left his position and started talking to someone, I came out. So he had no other option but to follow me without his walkie-talkie.
“I am fine, jimmy, and the Doctor has asked me to walk at least an hour a day, so don’t worry about fifteen- or twenty-minute walks; they won’t make any difference.”
He looked skeptical but finally nodded yes.
I and Bella were talking, while he was chuckling while listening to us.
The sun was about to set, and I could see the beach. It’s still a little far, but while in the middle of the tree, I could still make out that we were not very far.
