The Love From Vengeance

96 CANCELLED

ARIEL’S POV

Love was like a warm blanket on a chilly night, wrapping around you and making everything feel okay. It was the feeling when you wanted to make someone smile just because their happiness meant the world to you.

My Lukel and Janice were my love personified. They were like the brightest stars in my sky, each one precious and unique. I would move mountains to shield them from harm, to keep them safe and sound. That’s what a mother did she protected her little ones with everything she had.

When I looked at Lukel, I saw his bright eyes full of wonder and innocence. Hel was like a little sunbeam, bringing light into every corner of my world. His laughter was my melody, and his hugs were my refuge. I made sure nothing ever dimmed his light.

Janice, my sweet Janice, she was like a delicate flower, so full of grace and beauty. Her smile was my sunshine, brightening even the darkest days. I guarded her with all my strength, just like a fortress shielding its most precious treasure.

Love was also like the sturdy oak tree, providing shelter and strength. My love for Lukel and Janice was like those strong roots, grounding them, giving them a place to grow and thrive. I was their rock, their anchor; I was there to guide them. through every storm.

I would invariably watch over them, making sure the depth of my love was felt. It was like a river that flowed endlessly, carrying them through life’s journey. I was their compass, their beacon, steering them through the rough waters, making sure they found their way to happiness and peace.

I made a silent promise to myself from the times I watched them sleep – nothing would ever harm them. I would stand between them and any

danger that dared to come close. My love would be their shield, their safe harbor, and their unwavering protector.

Lukel and Janice, my precious ones, were the living embodiment of my love, and I cherished and guarded them for as long as I drew breath. That’s what love was a mother’s unyielding devotion, a bond that nothing in this world could break.

I sat at my desk in my office, scrolling through a collection of stunning photographs of my two children, Lukel and Janice. As I looked at their sweet faces, I couldn’t help but smile at how incredibly adorable they were.

I felt grateful and blessed to have such beautiful and precious children in my life.

Their innocence and joy brought a sense of warmth and happiness to my heart. I was just so lucky to be their parent and to have the privilege of watching them grow and flourish into amazing individuals. These little children of mine were truly a gift, and I cherished every moment with them.

Daniel stormed into my office, his face red with fury and his fists clenched tightly. I could feel the tension in the air as he stood before me, his eyes burning with anger. I couldn’t help but wonder what had caused him to be in such a state.

Was it something I had done or salid? Nah, it couldn’t be. Not at all. It couldn’t be.

“What are you doing here, Daniel, and who told you, you could just barge into my office?” I queried loudly. I didn’t like nonsense around here.

“Oh sorry Miss. But this anger is something I can’t control!” Daniel snapped.

“Okay, calm down, friend. What’s going on?” I softened my tone.

“I’m putting an end to the deal I made with you. I’m cancelling our project!” His words came as a big shock to me.

“Why exactly? I aksed.

“Go and ask him!” Daniel’s harsh tone became harder.

“Who? Stop keeping me confused around here. What happened?”

“Go and ask your husband!” He snarled.

“Luke?” I made a confused cast.

“Yes. I’ve had enough of his nonsense. He thinks too high of himself,” Daniel. mentioned.

“What did he do?

“I didn’t come here to gossip. I just came to let you know that I’m cancelling all our projects together.”

“Come on now, Daniel. You don’t have to be so harsh,” I tried changing his mind.

“Too bad, Ariel. It’s time for us to go our separate ways.” He gave me the bitter look, turning around.

Daniel stormed out of my office, slamming the door behind him. And now, I wondered what did Luke do this time to set him off? That goofball always seemed to find a way to push people’s buttons.

But really, what was even wrong with him? I know, he could be like a total *maniac, and an annoying birdbrain most of the times. Sometimes I think it’s a

miracle that Luke even manages to function in society.

I quickly moved to my table, grabbing a hold of my phone, and then I began to call Luke. It took quite some time though, but he answered anyway.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” I snapped instantly.

“What the hell is…what are you saying?” His tone could tell how confused he was. But thei was none of my goddamn business.

“Don’t act like you don’t know what I’m saying,” I spoke.

“Ariel, will you stop beating around the bush?”

“What did you do to Daniel?” I aksed, underneath my breath, pressing my phone against my ear.

“Daniel?”

“Yes, Daniel. He just cancelled his projects with me, all because of you.”

“Oh, I see,” Luke said inaudibly. But I heard his goofy ass.

“Now you better start talking Mr.”

“Why are you getting all worked up?”

“Why am I getting all worked up?!” I repeated his question, but not in the same. manner. “Do you have any idea how much I just lost?”

“There’s no need to do too much. Act like you had never met him,” Luke suggested.

“Ma’am, you have a visitor.” Rose entered my office. I sighed.

“We still have so much to talk about. I’m not done with you.” I hanged up, dropping my phone on the desk.

I drove my hands through my hair forthwith. Luke Reynold was one crazy man.

I stood by the road, listening to all the sounds people and cars made. I looked at my phone, flipping through pictures of Lukel and Janice.

The cars zoomed past, and I felt peaceful hearing the mix of voices and engines. It was nice to take a moment and think about these people who mean a lot to me.

Each photo brought back good memories, making me smile. And of course, I was really lucky to have all these people here with me. Andre and his family, marvelous blessings that showered upon me.

*I wanted to get myself something to eat from a shop across. But I was too busy, looking at my phone, that I forgot I was going to cross the road. But my senses

came back anyway.

I kept my phone back in my purse, and then I focused on the road. At that moment, I spotted someone standing from across. His face was wonderful, and his eyes were great, but he had this pestiferous attitude.

Yes, and yes. Luke was the one my eyes had caught. He had his hands on his pockets, and his eyes met mine.
