Episode one
Today was really stressful for Alex Marvins. He had to close more than ten business deals. Being a CEO is really tough, but it is not a big deal to him as long as it keeps on bringing in more money into his account, the stress can always be dealt with.
With the feeling of exhaustion He made hs way into the dark house and shut the door behind him.
"I am so fuckin' tired" he sighed and switched on the light.
Moving through the sitting room, the house was dead silent and looking at his wristwatch, "past 12am already, late as usual." Alex smiled to himself.
Still dragging his feets he turned to go to his room, but then he noticed someone was sleeping on the sofa. Filled with curiosity, he took some steps towards the Sofa and was surprised to see his heiress who was supposed to be peacefully laid on her massive bed, laying uncomfortably on a sofa. It became an eye sore.
"Nanny Dora," he called out.
No response came from Dora's door, how dare she let his little princess sleep on the sofa like she is a maid. He will definitely not spare Dora, not on his watch.
He was about heading in the direction of Dora's room when he heard movements behind him. It looked like his voice was too loud because Isabella jumped to her feet immediately.
"Hey honey." He whispered. "Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you up"
But she kept quiet and frowned.
"What is wrong dear?" He asked, confused.
"Everything is wrong! Everything is fucking wrong dad" She suddenly burst out crying.
"Please do not cry, it is breaking my heart."
"What is today's date? " Isabella fired, totally ignoring his pleas.
"The date?"
"Yes Dad, Today's date." She retorted.
"24th of August" he looked at his phone and answered, still confused. But he still felt like something was wrong because that date sounded really familiar.
He looked at Isabella, she had a disappointed look. He racked his brain trying to remember and then it struck him!
Today is a special day.. Isabella's birthday! He had just missed his daughter's birthday again.
Oh no!
"Today is your birthday!" He exclaimed.
He had gotten an early morning notification as he knew a reminder would help, but work still got the best part of him.
"Exactly dad. And I guess you forgot as usual"
"I am sorry dear. I was so busy with work that I forgot about it"
"I know..you were so busy that you totally forgot about your only daughter's birthday" Isabel said with sarcasm dripping from every word.
"Come on darling...I was really occupied, I didn't mean to miss your birthday"
"You are so engrossed in your work that nothing else matters anymore." Isabella sobs.
"I could not help it dear, today was really a busy day for me and I had to set a reminder even dear."
"Busy! Oh really, so what happened to the reminder set dad" She exclaimed in disbelief.
He stood there in silence
"Who am i to you?"
"What kind of a question is that?" Alex answered sarcastically.
"Answer the damn question dad cause I feel like I was adopted or maybe there is something you are not telling me" Isabella yelled back.
It felt as if her heart was going to rip apart. This is her eighteenth birthday and as far as she can remember, the thirteenth time her dad had missed her birthday.
"Do not say that honey. You are my daughter and the only little princess of my empire, nothing changed and nothing will"
"Then why can you not spare a bit of your time to spend with me, at the very least on my birthdays or is that so much to ask?" She choked in tears.
He stood in awe watching how big his little princess had grown. She now even corrects him but she is not wrong after all. He really did deserve it. He always forgets her birthdays and hardly spends time with her.
But he could not help it. He had married her mother grace at an early age of twenty, they did not have much then, but they were always a happy family.
Three months later into the marriage, Grace became pregnant. He could still remember the joy on the face of his wife then at the news of his princess being in her. That was one of the happiest days of their lives as a couple.
They eagerly awaited the arrival of the baby and after several months baby Isabella was finally born.
He dedicated most of his time caring for both the mother and child and made sure they never lacked anything that was necessary for them.
But everything changed when Grace suddenly blacked out one fateful morning. She was quickly rushed to the hospital and was diagnosed with cancer.
"I'm sorry sir but your wife is in her last stage of lung cancer. If she's not operated on in the next two days, we might lose her" The doctor had said.
The words of the doctor kept on playing in his mind. Being a middle class young man He knew it was impossible to arrange such a huge amount of money the doctor had asked for.
Like where the hell would he get such money from?
He ran around asking for assistance but he could get little to no help from anyone. He watched helplessly as his precious wife gradually slipped out of my hands. He hated it, the weakness - and it scared the hell out of him.
"Forgive me grace. I am such a useless husband" He had cried at her feet that fateful evening. He felt powerless against his family predicament.
"It is not your fault baby. I am very sure you would have treated me if you really did have the money to do so, I just want you to promise me one thing please" Grace said, slowly.
She knew that she had been feeling sick for a while now but she did not want to bother Alex cause she knew he had a lot already to handle, so she decided to keep it to herself. She never knew that it was going to result in this.
She had always wanted to grow old with Alex beside her and have two kids but it seems that dream is not going to be a reality anymore.
"What is it honey?" Alex asked, tensed up.
"Please, promise me that you will take care of our princess and shower her with all the love in this world which you can offer" Grace said
"I will definitely do that but why are you talking as if you will not be there to watch our daughter grow"
"Also promise me that you would not leave her in the hands of another woman."
"No, there is no other woman that can take your place in my heart and in Isabella's life."
"I do not know babe, I also do not think I will make it out of here alive. I am already feeling tired and exhausted" She coughed.
"You are scaring me Grace, please stop speaking this way. Do not worry, I am going to go find a way to get the money needed for your treatment okay? " He stood up to leave.
But she stopped him. "Do not go babe. Please put me in your arms"
Still confused at where all this was leading to, he slowly raised her head up and placed her in his arms.
"Thank you. It feels so good to be in your arms again" She forced a smile.
"Please stop talking already my love. You need to rest"
"I know I have promised to stay beside you forever but I think I'll have to break that promise today, I am sorry. Tell our daughter that I love her dearly and I am sorry for leaving her so early" Her voice frailed.
Fear Crept over him.
"No, No.. please you have to stop talking" Alex cried.
What was he going to say to Isabella, what would be the reason grace can not be with them anymore. He forced Himself to restrain from negative thoughts.
"I love you darling, please take good care of yourself and our baby"
" But..." , words failed him.
Before he could complete the sentence, Grace became motionless. Her eyes closed and she had slept off peacefully in his arms.
"Let it not be, please." He shouted in fear.
"No! Grace!!!!" He screamed, shaking her. "Doctor!"
His scream attracted the attention of the doctor's and the nurse's into his wife's room.
The doctor and the nurse's attended to her immediately and on checking. "I'm sorry but we lost her" The doctor shook his head as he announced.
A part of him shattered at that moment as he broke down in tears. He wanted to stop crying but his tears were free flowing.
He slumped to the ground and was also admitted into the hospital for a few hours before he regained consciousness. Little did he know then and now it seems even more taunting. He missed those moments of being a happy family.
"What have I ever done to you that I should be punished like this?" I inquired, my tears blending with the rain drops on my face. To protect the little dignity left in me, I encircled myself with my arms. His tone dropped to that of an iceberg, and he only responded in a clipped manner. "You are nothing and you will forever remain nothing," Axel breathed, touching the phantom hairs on my lips. Harley Black is my name. A typical loyal and law abiding student.
