"Is there anything you did to her that made her wanna die?" The doctor asked the speechless woman.
"Uh...uh...not really..i only screamed at her and it made her sad."
"YOU WICKED WOMAN! Doctor, save us from this woman! She has been making our life hell ever since dad died! We hate her! She's a butt-head! She's...she's....forcing my poor Lovely to work hard and put food for her and her devil's son table!" Demelza blurted out and the doctor was shocked. Ford's mother burst into tears.
"Doctor...i...i forgot to tell you this...ever since their parents passed away, Demelza has been acting strange. Remember the last time you came here, she was throwing me death glares. She just hates me for no reason. I love Lovely and Demelza like they are my own children. How can i be so wicked to them?" She started faking bitter tears.
"Oh my God, that's poor mental health. I think she needs care in our hospital. They both need therapy. I understand their plight. When my parents died when i was six, i also struggled hard to be fine mentally."
"WE DON'T NEED ANY THERAPY! SHE IS THE ONE THAT NEEDS JAIL!" Demelza snarled.
"Lovely will be fine. I gave her some sedatives and she will be up soon." Her wrist was bandaged as the doctor took his tools and left.
Making sure the doctor had left, she raised her hand and slapped Demelza.
"How dare you tell the doctor all that? Am i wicked? Give me an answer! Now get up, and do some house chores! Then go out and look for a job!" She thundered as Demelza cried profusely. Their stepmom, Fiona left the room with Ford.
"Lovely...will you please wake up. Am lonely and sad without you. Lovely is absolutely right. Our parents are just cheats. They promise not to leave but they left." Demelza placed her hair under Lovely's arm and fell asleep.

"Hi Logan!!!" Dakota was home watching a movie when Logan and his best friend Zeke came in.
"You're home."
"Oh yes i am." Dakota said, with her eyes glued to the television.
"You're watching a new movie you acted, aren't you?"
'Oh no, no, no. Its one of my colleague's, and its really nice." Dakota added, chewing her gum noisily.
"Okay. I'll join you in a sec." Logan went upstairs, while Zeke sat to enjoy the movie.
"What's the title?"
"Anonymously! Isn't the title intriguing?" She smiled but Zeke rolled his eyes, which made her uncomfortable. Logan came downstairs a few minutes later with his eyes glued to his phone. He stumbled and nearly fell but Dakota caught him.
"Is everything alright?" Dakota snatched his phone and was shocked to see him staring at some girls.
"Who are these girls?" Dakota questioned and Logan smiled.
"They are just some girls from a movie."
"Duh! That's stupid. Come here, come watch this movie." Dakota pulled him. He sat on the sofa while Dakota sat stupidly on his lap. Logan felt irritated.
"Let's take a selfie. Me and my gorgeous boyfriend." Soon, Dakota fell asleep and started drooling, snoring horribly.
"Woah! This girl is so irritating and foolish. I never thought you could have this kinda taste in girls. She's ugly!" Zeke said.
"She's not my taste, Zeke. Mum imposed her on me. She might be an actress who buys everything but she can't buy my love for her." Logan rolled his eyes and threw her angrily on the ground.
"Can you imagine this bitch? She didn't even wake up!"

Lovely was jogging around the streets of New Orleans, staring in the beautiful sky. She was wearing a sports bra and some shorts. The shorts let out her hips and her curvy picture. Her abs were visible and everyone who saw her took a second look. As she stopped to drink some water, she saw a car also stop by on the bridge she was jogging on. She stopped in her tracks on seeing the man.
He was wearing a white tuxedo with some pants. He furrowed his brows, his emerald eyes were raging, but gawd, he still looked gorgeous. And his lips...those cherry lips filled Lovely's heart with so much yearn to kiss him.
Lovely itched her head and continued jogging but stopped when he threw a lady out of his car.
"You cheat! You know i have been diagnosed with Aquaphobia?" The lady was weeping.
"I don't care! You are just a burden to my life!"
"I hate you, Logan! I hate the fact that you impregnated me and now you're denying! This baby is yours!"
"Die, bitch! DIE!" He punched her stomach hard and Lovely gasped as the lady screamed. Blood escaped her thighs.
"You ruined my life..." She tried to breathe. She closed her eyes, but she couldn't stop imagining all the water around her. Logan went to his car.
Lovely ran towards the lady fighting for her life eyes closed. She was shocked to see all the blood on the ground and in her dress.
"My baby...my baby...stranger save my baby..." Was all the lady could mutter. There was no car around for her to take the woman to the hospital. Except that murderer's car. Lovely stormed to Logan's car and opened the door angrily.
"You murderer! The lady says the baby's yours! How dare you punch her? Men like you have no life, no respect for women at all, you just rape them! What pleasure do you get from making women cry? Soon you say they are whores!"
Lovely continued yelling and yelling, but Logan heard next to nothing. For some reason, he couldn't move. He was enchanted by her beauty at first sight. Her eyes, the most beautiful thing in her whole body made him smile. Her well shaped nose, with a jawline that screamed perfection. She didn't have a long straight face like some models. Her lips were beautiful, strawberry and looked juicy as she spoke. And those abs - he had never seen a woman with abs before. Well not so much abs, because she wasn't muscular. She had a heart shaped birthmark on her abdomen, which was so cute.
"Mr Logan! MR LOGAN!" He jolted back to reality and blinked a few times.
"Who are you? How did you know my name?" He said coldly.
"The lady said it." Lovely turned around, to see that the lady had fainted.
"Lady! Lady!"
"Elle! Elle!"
'Is her name Elle?" Lovely asked.
"No, Fanning."
"How dare you still be sarcastic after everything you've done? I hate you at first sight!"
"And i love you at first - "
"WHAT? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?" Lovely and Logan's cheeks flushed red.
"Am sorry. I...i...was talking to my girlfriend who just texted." Logan lied and stared at his phone.
"Shit, you have a girlfriend!"
"Why? Interested in me?"
"Please shut up!" Lovely lifted Elle on her shoulders. They got to the car and drove off.
