LOVE & REVENGE - CHAPTER 5&6
8 Years Later.
A CONVENIENCE STORE 🏘
The door to the red car opened and a pair of slim legs came down.
She was looking so elegant and beautiful in her blue dress. A pair of expensive necklace hung around her neck with matching earrings. On her wrist is a pair of expensive watch. Everything about her screamed money.
She is none other than Fiona. She has grown more beautiful over the years. She just arrived at Los Angeles and wanted to get some girly stuff before heading home.
When she stepped inside the store, she was directed to where to get her stuffs and she thanked the store attendant before heading to where she was directed.
As she was doing her shopping, she heard two guys discussing on the other side of the store and she paused at the sound of the voice. A voice she will recognize even in her dreams. She wanted to walk over to them and make her presence known but what she heard made her stop on her tracks.
On the other side of the store, Alex was doing his shopping with Kylan.
“Have you gotten anyone yet” Kylan asked
“No. I will head to the hospital from here. Getting a surrogate mom is really hard” Alex shrugged
“I still don’t understand why you don’t want to get married. Is it because of Fiona? Dude that girl would not want to see you again because of what happened. You should move on”
“You won’t understand. If I succeed in getting a surrogate mom and she gives birth, I will be fine. Gemini is there too. I will be happy with them until Fiona decides to forgive me”
“Wh@??ver. I wasn’t expecting you to change your mind anyway. Let’s go. Its getting late”
Fiona smiled immediately they left. She hurried after them unnoticed. She entered her car and followed them closely. When they arrived at the hospital, she waited for them to go in before coming down from her car. She used her nose mask and entered the hospital.
She waited for them to leave before going to the doctor’s office.
“Good day doctor, I want to be a surrogate mom for the man that just left”
The doctor stared at her suspiciously and she cleared her throat before continuing “I overheard them talking about it and how it has been hard for him to get one so I decided to do it for him. But I don’t want to meet him until i’m sure its successful. I don’t want to give him false hope. And let’s say I need the money too” Fiona concluded praying inwardly that the doctor will agree.
The doctor started at her for some minutes before picking up her phone to dial a number but dropped the phone on a second thought.
“What is your name? The doctor asked
“Cindy Brooklyn” she said with a big smile.
“Can I see any of your I.D?
“Ummmm… I’m not here with any but I will come with it next time”
“Come back tomorrow by 10am” the doctor said and Fiona stood up with a smile and started walking out.
“Now I can have my revenge. Since he already has one child, let’s start from there. Alex, you won’t know what hit you” She said smiling and she felt a slightly pain in her chest but shrugged it off.
She entered her car and went home.

“Dude, the doctor just called. They have gotten a surrogate mom” Alex said as he dropped the call
“But we are just coming from the hospital. How come ?
“I don’t know. What concerns me now is that I will get what I want but he said the girl doesn’t want us to meet until she is sure the whole thing is successful. He said something about the girl not wanting to give me false hopes”
“OK. Did he say the girl’s name?
“Cindy. Yeah. Cindy Brooks or something. Her name is not my business right now. Its not like i’m going to have anything serious with her”
“OK. Wh@??ver you want. I’ll support you. You remember Donald will be back today. I will head to the airport soon to get him. Coming?
“No. I will just head home. Gem should be home by now. And that annoying sister of mine said something about coming over to my house”
“I’ve missed Gem. I think i’ll come to your house straight from the airport with Don”
“Please don’t bring that lunatic to my house. I already have Gem and my sister to deal with”
“Are you scared your sister will fall for him?
“Get out”
“I will go but allow that girl to love someone. She won’t remain single like some guy I know” Kylan said with a knowing smile
“Kylan you have overstayed your welcome. Its time to go”
“Are you chasing me away? You will miss me o”
“Miss you? Don’t flatter yourself. What will you guys like to eat anyways. I will tell the maids to prepare it when I get home”
“And you act like you don’t miss us”
“I regret asking”
🎀William’s Mansion🎀
📞 Mom, i’m sure about this. Relax. I’ll be fine. Fiona said to her mom over the phone
📞 I don’t want you to get hurt again. Remember what happened before” Florence said from the other end.
📞 Mom I told you I was going to be his worst nightmare right, I wasn’t joking when I said that. He said he would make me cry blood right? I would be the one to make him cry blood.
📞Just be careful.
📞that’s by the way, when are you coming back to L.A ?
📞Soon
📞 I know you would say that. Anyways, make sure you take care of yourself.
📞 I will. Bye.
📞 Bye.
Alexander Smith. I am back to make you cry. I think I will have to be friends with your son first. He looks as cute as his father. Too bad cutie, you will be dying soon. Sorry that you have to pay for your father’s sins. Even the Bible said it. So its not my fault. Fiona thought as she scrolled through Gemini’s pictures on Alex’s social media page.
A call from Hailey interrupted her.
📞Hey best friend” Hailey beamed on the phone
📞 What’s up girl.
📞 I just landed at the airport.
📞You lie. Why so fast?
📞 tchh, I guess you haven’t checked your time. Its 5 hours and 59 minutes from San Francisco to L.A so get your @zz to the airport and pick us.
📞 Us? Who are you with?
📞 Can you come here first? Is this a phone interview? I’m hanging up.
Us? Who is she coming with? Her mother doesn’t seem to like me that much so I doubt she is coming with her. Or is it her brother?
Fiona kept thinking as she drove to the airport.
🛩AIRPORT🚁
“Girlyyyyy” Fiona screamed the moment she saw Hailey and ran to give her a big hug.
“Stop shouting like a lunatic” Hailey pushed her head with a finger.
“You should have told me you came with Jay when I asked. Hello cutie” she waved at Jayden who was waiting for them to finish their drama.
“Why should I … “ Hailey stopped and started dragging Fiona away hurriedly with Jay trailing behind them as. she saw someone”
