Some nights, when everywhere is quiet and my books lie open in front of me, I still hear my father’s laughter.

It comes suddenly, like he just stepped into the room again. Like nothing ever happened.

But then reality returns, heavy and cold.

I was fifteen when we lost him. The call came late at night. I remember my mother screaming, neighbors rushing in, confusion everywhere. They said there was an accident on the highway. A truck lost control. Multiple cars involved.

My father didn’t survive.

I didn’t cry immediately. I think my brain refused to understand what death really meant. I kept expecting him to walk through the door the next day, complaining about traffic and asking what we cooked.

But he never came back.

The burial day felt unreal. Everyone crying. Everyone saying, “Be strong.” I hated that phrase. How do you become strong overnight?

That was when my sister became everything.

Ada was older than me by three years, but after our father died, she felt like ten years older. She comforted our mother, handled visitors, made sure I ate, even forced me back to school when I wanted to give up.

At night, when grief hit hardest, we would sit outside together.

“You’ll become something great,” she used to say. “For Dad.”

I didn’t believe her then, but she kept saying it until I started believing a little.

She became my strength.

Years passed, and life moved on the way life cruelly does. Pain softened but never truly disappeared. I got into university and started studying pharmacy. It was tough, but every time I felt like quitting, I remembered my father’s dream of seeing me wear a white coat.

And Ada? She celebrated me louder than anyone.

Until last year.

She started falling sick. At first, we thought it was stress. Then hospital visits became frequent. Tests, drugs, admissions. Words doctors say softly when they don’t want to scare you.

But we understood.

Very sick.

Now the roles have changed.

The girl who once held me together is now the one lying in hospital beds, smiling weakly and telling me, “You’ll be fine.”

Sometimes I leave lectures and rush to the hospital. Other days I leave the hospital straight to the lab. I read at night with fear pressing against my chest, wondering what tomorrow might bring.

People see me in class and think I’m quiet or too serious.

They don’t know I’m fighting not to lose another parent figure.

They don’t know I study pharmacology while praying silently that the drugs I memorize will somehow help my sister.

They don’t know how tired I am.

But I keep pushing.

Because my father worked himself to the bone for us.

Because my sister carried me when I was broken.

Because giving up would make all their sacrifices meaningless.

So I balance lectures, practicals, hospital visits, and sleepless nights. I push through exhaustion. I chase grades even when my heart is heavy.

Some days I feel like I’m drowning.

But then I remember Ada’s voice years ago:
“You’ll become something great.”

So I wake up again.
Attend classes.
Read my books.
Pray.
Hope.

And keep moving.

Because right now, strength is all I have left.

And I owe it to them to become the best pharmacy student, and the man, they always thought I could be.

I was at the office in my other company when my phone starts ringing, I ignored it because I was so busy but the phone continue ringing.

I angrily deep my hand in my suit pocket and brought out my phone. I stared at the screen it was my agent that was calling, I picked it instantly.

“Martins, any update?”, I asked

“Yes boss, he’s close to her house”, he said

“Ok, am on my way there please call the polices immediately I end this call”, I instructed

“Ok boss”, he responded and I end the call.

I took my car keys and wallet then went out of my office, I told my secretary that I was going out before I left. I hopped into my car and zoom off immediately, I want to get there before he hurts her.

Alright guys….

Since Derrick started working with me I hired a private agent to always follow him wherever he goes and brings me feedback because a lot of my employees were complaining about how he treats them.

When I sacked him and employed Lydia as the managing director, I knew he will go after her that’s why I told my private agent to always follow Lydia so that Derrick won’t hurts her.



On my way to Lydia’s house there was a heavy traffic, God being wonderful the traffic didn’t last long so I was able to reach Lydia’s house on time but a bit late.

I parked my car outside the compound then pulled out and rushed in, I pushed her door and it’s opened.

Derrick was pressing her neck, he stops when he saw me. I jumped on him and gave him a heavy punch that sent him to the floor, I kick him twice on his stomach and he groaned painfully.

I carried him and throw him at the wall, blood burst out from his head. He managed to stands up to fight me when Martins and some policemen came.

“Martins, please call ambulance”, I said in a very sad tone, he nods as he brought out his phone and dialed their emergency number while the polices handcuffed Derrick and take him away.

I carried Lydia in a bridal style out of her living room, her body was getting cold. Soon the ambulance came, Lydia was taken inside while I and Martins entered my car and followed them.

Am sure they must have given her first aid treatment.


Ten minutes later, we were at the hospital the same hospital I took her to when she had an accident, she was taken to emergency ward while Martins and I wait at the waiting room.

I’m anxiously waiting for the doctor to call me to his office so that I can know Lydia’s health condition.

Twenty five minutes later, a young nurse came to us she said the doctor request my presence in his office, I told Martins to wait while I went to the doctor’s office.

He told me Lydia was fine but she’s in coma or deep sleep, whatever and that she would wake up in few days. I paid all the money needed for her treatment.

I’d spend any amount of money to make sure she’s fine and well treated.

I called my sister and told her what Derrick did to Lydia, she was very angry about it. I also told her that Derrick was already with polices and he’ll be taken to court once Lydia is fully recover.
???? ???? TWO DAYS LATER ???? ????

???? ???? LYDIA’S POV ???? ????

I wake up to behold Larry holding my hand, he looks so worried, he was staring at me, there was another guy behind him.

I sneeze as I gradually open my eyes, a beautiful smile crosses his lips when he saw me open my eyes.

“Oh thank God you’re awake”, he said excitedly and kiss my forehead.

I suddenly became shy, no man has ever hug me or kiss my forehead but he did. He always makes me feel like a queen and a special lady.

“You were worried?”, I asked, he nods still smiling

“But am not worried anymore because you’re awake”, he said touching my cheek slowly.

His warm hand makes me feel like sleeping on his body for the rest of my life. I close my eyes enjoying his soft and warm hand on my cheek, I guess he noticed am enjoying it.

He slowly came closer to me so close that I could feel his breath, his lips meet with me and I respond immediately. He smiled inwardly and continue devouring my lips as my left hand found its way to his neck urging him to continue.

“Is she awake?”, A matured voice asked interuppting our moment.

“Yes, she’s”, came his voice, I opened my eyes surprisely, his hand was still on my cheek and he was still sitting down.

That was when it dawn on me that it was just an imagination, the stupid doctor that came in interuppted everything maybe I’d still been kissing him now in my imagination.
Nonsense doctor, I feel like sending him out from this ward, he checked me and turned to Larry.

“She can be discharged from tomorrow”, he said and walk out when Katie came in. She hugs me happily and sat beside me.

“How are you feeling dear?”, She asked

“I feel very strong”, I said and smiled.

“Derrick is a ……”,

“Dick”, Larry complete Katie’s sentence.

“That reminds me how did you manage to open my door?”, I asked

Larry told me how he hired a private agent to always follow me because he knew Derrick would come after me, he also told me how he managed to enter my house.

He introduced the guy behind him as Martins his private agent, he also told me Derrick has been arrested and will be charged to court whenever am better.

Katie brought food for me, I ate to my satisfaction. They are just amazing.

I was more surprised when Larry told me that he knew about Derrick’s plain of killing him and takes over his companies, cars and houses. That alone is a crime.

We discussed about others stuffs.

The next day…..

I was discharged, Larry took me to his house, according to him he said he is preparing another place for me to stay.

“You are going to stay in my sister’s room”, he said

“Why your sister’s room? What about your room”, I asked, he look at me somehow.

“It would be a pleasure to me if you stay with me in my room, I was only thinking maybe you won’t like to stay around me like in the same room”, he said calmly

“If I don’t want to stay with you then why am I here?”, I asked

“Am sorry”, he apologized

I’ve told him to stop apologizing to me, he won’t listen.

In the evening…..

I wanted to prepare dinner but he refused, he did it himself. We ate and watch movie together before we went to bed.

We lay side by side facing each other and staring into each other’s eyes, none of us blink our eyes.

He draw his head closer to me, I did same and before I knew it our lips were already dancing together. The kiss was so passionate, the rate of my heartbeat increased and I could also feel his heartbeat.

My hand found its way to his neck while his hand was on my hips traveling all over my body as we devoured each other’s lips with passion.

For 28 years of my life I’ve never feel this way or kiss any man.



He kisses my lips with so much care and love as his hand found its way to under my night gown.

I moan romantically for the first time in my whole life.

I opened my door and was about to enter when he called me

“Lydia”, I look back instantly as he removed his glasses and cap, I was shocked that I lose my balance.

“Der…Derr…Derrick”, I muttered slowly.

He smiled wicked as he starts coming close to me while I moved backward almost in my living room.

“Please what do you want?”, I asked feeling scared.

“You’ve the guts to tell Larry that I sacked you so that you can take my place in his company right?”, He asked as he continues coming close to me.

I move backward into my living room and close the door forgetting I left the key at the front. He opened my door and came in then lock it with key.

{Oh no! Am finished ????????} I thought as he faced me.

“Derrick please I never knew he is the CEO of the company, we met the day you sacked me”, I said already crying.
“How and where you met him is none of my business. You, Lydia James, will never take my position in Lasco manufacturing Company dead or alive”, he said as he sat down on my couch.



“But is not my fault that….”,

“I know, that’s why I came with a proposal”, he cut me short

“Which is?”, I asked trying to calm down.

“I learnt Larry likes you a lot and would do anything to make you happy right?”, He asked

“How would I know if he can do anything to makes me happy?”, I asked too cause I don’t understand.

“Is it not obvious that you can ask him of anything and he will do it?”, He asked

“I don’t know”, I said and look away


“How will you know when your brain is empty”, he said

“Did you came here to insult me?”, I asked facing him.

“Shut up am not done yet! Anyways, my proposal is this and you have two options so choose wisely.
Option number one; you will go to his house, tell him how much you love him and would like to be his girlfriend when he accepted, kill him let’s take over his companies, cars and houses. 40 percent of everything will be given to you, as for his sister, she will be taken care of.
Option….”,

“Derrick, you want me to kill Larry so that you can take over his properties? His sweat? What he suffered for”, I cut him short.

“Shut up! You don’t talk when am talking else I’ll kill you here and now”, he said harshly.

My body shiver, I can’t do what he wants I will never in my life shed blood talk more of shedding Larry’s blood never! I rather die than committee murder.

“Option number two; you will go to his house tell him you’re no longer in interested in working in his company as managing director, tell him to re-employ me and hand me everything about the company that I’ll take care of his business. Also tell him to stay away from you that you are evil and you will kill when next you see him around around you. After that, leave the rest for me to handle”, he said

Look at how easy is it in his mouth to say, he wants another man’s wealth.

He continue staring at me waiting for me to tell him the option I choose.

“Which option do you choose?”, He asked

“None of the above”, I said, he stands up angrily.

“Do you think am joking?”, He asked

“None of the above”, I said, he stands up angrily.

“Do you think am joking?”, He asked

“Derrick, get out of my house before I call the polices on you”, I said, he laughed

“Look at this weakly threatening me with polices, do you think I, Derrick is scared of polices?”, He asked coming to me

“Derrick, stay away from me”, I said moving backward as I reach for my phone in my bag.

He suddenly sn**ch my phone from me and throw it on the floor then push me to the couch I fell sitting on it. I kick him on his stomach with my two legs as he was coming to hit me

He fell backward hitting his legs on something he groaned in pain, I quickly stand up and rushed to the door, I hold the key and made an attempt to unlock the door when he dragged me which makes the key to pull out from the door.

I used the key to hit his hand and elbowed him very hard, he groaned in pain again holding his chest.

“You’ve just worsten the case”, he said as he charges on me.

He carried me and hits me on my TV, the screen scattered into pieces, he punch me on my cheek causing blood to come out of my mouth.

I pick a piece of my TV screen and stab him with it on his leg, he groaned in pain as he kicks my jaws which make blood to come out of my nose and mouth.

I managed to stand up, I took my already broken TV and hits him with it, he turned and hold my neck pushing me to the wall.

I was losing my breath, I grabbed his manhood and press it so hard, he yelled letting go of my neck and fell on the floor while I tried to catch my breath.

He tries standing up when I kick him on his jaws then on his waist, I took the already broken TV again and hit him with it on his head, he fell facing floor.

He suddenly grabbed my leg and I fell on the floor, he turned me upward and kneel beside me. He hold my neck again and press it very hard.

“You think you are smart and strong right?”, He asked still holding my neck, I tried to talk but I couldn’t as I was losing my breath.

I prayed sliently that someone should come to my rescue, oh no, he locked the door and I don’t know where the keys are.

Is this how am going to die? God, am I going to die without telling Larry what i feel for him? Is Derrick truly going to kill me or someone will come to my rescue?

I look at Derrick, tears poured out of my eyes, I wish he’d stop so that I can apologies to him, I wish he’d give me 30 seconds to write a letter for Larry and tell him how much I wish to be with him, how much I cherish his love and care towards me.

I just wish he will stop so that I can take my last breathe.

I tried removing his hands but he was way stronger than me, I couldn’t move my legs that were shaking before because my spirit and soul are weak already.



{Oh my dear Larry, I wish you are here so that I can tell you how much you mean to me and how I desire to stay with you. I just pray Derrick won’t come after you when am gone but if he does, please forgive me it’s all my fault}

I thought as my eyes gently went close then I took my last breath.

Why are you running away?”, He asked, I still didn’t say anything.

“Come let’s go to your ward”, he said taking my hand

“No, I don’t like staying at the hospital”, I said removing my hands from his.

“Nobody likes to stay in hospital but you have to because of your health please”, he said

“Am scared”, I said crying

“Don’t be scared, am here with you ok?”, He asked he takes my hand again.

“What if they inject me when you’re not around?”, I asked, he chuckled and touch my cheeks

“You’re funny, nobody is gonna do that ok?”, Be said and I nod.

We went back to my ward after much pleading with me.

???? ???? ???? DAYS LATER ???? ???? ????

His kid sister the waitress whose name I now know as Katie came to visit me twice at the hospital before I was discharged.
Larry took me to his house, he treats me like a queen. He’s just a perfect guy, lively, caring, sweet and fun to be with.

I spent one week in his house before I decided to go back to my house to continue with my bad luck life.

“Larry”, I called while we were eating

He was the one that prepared the food, he’s such a good cook.

“Yes dear”, he answered and look at me

“I’d be going back to my house tomorrow”, I said

“Why?”,

“Because I’ve stayed him for too long”,

“But am not complaining”,

“You don’t have to complain, I’m already doing it for you”, I said and he smiled

“If it’s about your job, I can be dropping you off at your workplace and come back to pick you in the evening”, he said

This is what am saying, he’s too caring I don’t think I deserve a man like him though he hasn’t say anything like relationship to me.

“Larry, if I tell you that I don’t have a job will you believe?”, I asked, he dropped his fork on the table

“Was it one of the reasons you were crying the day I saw you at the restaurant?”, He asked and I nod trying to hold back my tears
“I thought Derrick is the CEO because of the way he behaves”, I said

“He’s not, the last time I visited that company was four Months ago, I’ve being busy with my other company so I barely have time for myself”, he said.

He even has another company, no wonder his house is this big and look expensive too.
“Hmm what’s the name of your other company?”, I asked

“Larry’s cosmetic company, do you still want to work?”, He asked and I nod.

We talked about other things like his parents and how he started his life with his only sister. He told me everything, their parents are dead and they are all alone in this world but not as lonely as I’m for 28 years of my life.

If I had been alone in my house, depression would has killed me by now. I honestly feel better staying with him.

The next day, I went back to my house, he made me promised him that I won’t cry, think or say negative words to myself like I always do.

He call me almost every minute to make sure am ok and I’d keep telling him not to worry about me that am fine.
I like him so much and am always happy hearing from him.

???? ???? ???? A DAY LATER ???? ???? ????

I received a letter from him, I opened it and read.

It was an employment letter as a managing director in Lasco manufacturing Company, he sacked Derrick and put me in his position.

He also gifted me a brand new car, am so happy.

All those employees that were looking down on me will start looking up to me as their new boss.
They thought all conditions are permanent, God has answered my prayer and I bless the day I met Larry for he is a God sent to me.

On Monday morning at work was a boom, none of the employees believe their eyes that I’m their boss and they will do what I say.

After work that day I went home with my new car, I parked at the corner of my house then step down, I carried my handbag and went to my door.

I opened my door and was about to enter when he called me



“Lydia”, I look back instantly as he removed his glasses and cap.

I was shocked that I lose my balance.
