Imperfection

HAPPY EVER AFTER(THE END) I stood up from where I had sat down as I watched my mother walk up to us before holding both my hands. "We're all in this together, I clearly understand the reason why you both did what you did. I'm not going to blame you both for anything if I had never been in your shoes. It's time Pearl!, to face the consequences of your actions" I looked over at Greg to see that he was already on his feet just like me. My eyes were glistened with tears as I watched the lawyer gesturing us all towards the sitting room. I followed reluctantly as I felt Greg's large hands holding mine, I quickly held on tight hoping I'll get some strength from it. "I'm sorry for calling the whole family here" Daniel looked over at us all before he continued. "I know most of us here are busy business man and woman who's got better things to do with their time than come here a

Frenzy Pearl’s POVIt's been two months since I got discharged from the hospital. Greg never asked me any question about what happened and he has been avoiding me ever since. Not like we don't talk or eat together, we still do all those things but I feel he's avoiding me because he doesn't want to know how I feel about what happened. More like he was running away from his past again. "Ask him about it, maybe he'll feel more comfortable about you bringing it up than him asking you" Peach had advised me the other day when I went to her house to visit her. "So, how am I suppose to ask him?, do you expect me to just walk up to him and ask him, do you love me?" I already said that before I realized the damage I had caused. "You think Greg loves you?" She asked looking surprised. "I'm not sure, but I think it was a dream. I heard you guys talk

GREG'S POV "It is not this type of chance that I wanted, dad. You made me live in guilt for years. I hated myself and you knew the truth" After Peach had told me the truth about Pearl, I called my mother to ask her about what I had heard but only for the woman to tell me she was in Texas. Texas, yet still using her Nigeria number. I don't get how that could possibly happen. She should have just told me she wants to avoid the question instead of lying. I had to go for the second option. I went to my father's office to see him hoping he won't tell me he's also in Australia when I can see him face to face. "That was all I could have done for you Greg, you shut everyone out of your life after that incident. Not even your mother or your brother could get to you. Even that Natasha of a girl knew Pearl didn't die, why didn't she ever tell you about it? Answer my question" I didn't really have any answer to that ques

FRENZYPearl’s POVI tried getting acquainted with my surroundings as it was dark and the only sound I could hear was just like that of water dropping into a bucket with water already. I tried opening my eyes but they were too heavy for me to carry, I tried getting words to say but to no avail., I could feel myself drifting away into the sleep land. Then, I heard a sound, it was the door opening which was accompanied with footsteps. Maybe if the door open fully, there would be a ray of light, but I saw nothing. Then I heard a voice : "hey, you're still in there right?. I really hope you can hear me. It's been three weeks since you've fell asleep and I can't believe the fact that I could make it to this point without you". What!, why have I been sleeping for three weeks, what is going on with me?, why can't you make it with out me, you never liked me Greg. "I always thought that
