Please read the author note at the end of this chapter.

Thank you.

"I am older than you so I'm your elder! Watch your mouth you embesil! I've warned you many times Sara, but you just wouldn't listen. These people don't know why I'm crying, but I do and you know why too. You just don't know that I know".

What is Wendy talking about? Everyone is wearing confused faces. Including me.

Monique walked beside me.

I look at Sara. She's still on the ground, raised by one elbow while the palm of her other hand is rubbing her cheek as she pants.

"You slapped me". Sara said more surprised.

"And I'll do it again!" Wendy pointed.

"Wendy?" I questioned.

"What is it Wendy?" Eva and Nicolas asked. She look at them.

"Please call your workers". I frown. What?

Eva hesitated but when she saw that Wendy is serious about it she walked off.

"I know Sara like the palm of my hands. Right now she's probably thinking of ways to get back at me for slapping her. The same way she thought of getting back at you for giving her a concussion". More tears streaming down her face.

"And trust me when I say she's not done. If I allow her to leave who knows what she'll do? I know your heavily guarded but I won't take the chance".

I look in the direction of Eva. Her and One, Two, Three....Eleven maids are on their way here. Including my favourite maids.

Everyone wait in silence as they approached.

The maids lined out. They all looked curious.

"Akeilia, Sara didn't pushed me away from her. I was the one who isolated myself. But if I'd stay in her company then told you that we're still talking you probably wouldn't have me around you. And I had to be around you. I hang with her a bit when your not looking then back to you before you notice. Sara had no problem with it because she thought that I'd stay on her side no matter what due to the fact that we were friends for years".

"I don't. understand you Wendy". Before I imply anything I continued looking at her waiting for answers.

"I wasn't in despair only because of my husband and I problems. I was also upset because I know what is feels like to lose a child...and you would've lost two if god hadn't allowed me to be in the right position at that time".

"I know that we lost our baby, but that doesn't give you the right to stay away from me. You can't blame me for it. We were both there when it happened". I'm on my way to the pool. It's always quiet and soothing back there. Nice place for a conversation like this I'm having. You know, private.

"Honey I'm not trying to stay away from you. As soon as I'm back I'll make it up to you. We can also make another baby when I get back". I know what I feel.

"You distant yourself from me. I can feel it. I'm sorry but if you can't make this work, instead of you using work as a distraction to be away from me, I'd prefer a divorce. I can't live like this". My voice stern.

"Divorce is not an option. When I get home I-I'll make sure to make it a long while before I leave again. I promise ok? Please don't talk about divorce. I didn't marry you to divorce you". I know deep down that he's a good man. I also know that he's hurting and so am I but he needs to do better.

"Until then. I'll take your word for it until then". He's also trustworthy, but I have to make him know that I'm serious for him to take me seriously.

"I love you honey".

"I'm trying to like her, but I can't. No matter how hard I tried".

"There's a way to solve everything".

"Um... I'll ah..call you back". I told my husband quietly. I hung up.

I stopped.

Did he just told me that he loves me? Oh boy I got distracted by the voices I heard.

I stopped before I broke the corner. I peeked around. I frown when I saw Sara and her aunt. Sara looks upset and her aunt is looking at her in an understanding manner.

"That should've been me. I should've been the one pregnant for Michael". What?

"But you know that you can't get pregnant".

"Don't rub it in my face". Sara put her hand on her forehead.

So much for being a friend and don't know that you can't conceive.

"If it wasn't for the multiple abortions I had I would've been able to. It's all my f*ck*ng fault". And so much for being a Christian. Wait multiple abortions? How many abortions did you do Sara? I can't believe this.

"I'm sorry Sara I shouldn't have introduced you to it. But I couldn't have you carry that guy children into this world".

She hold up her palm at her aunt.

"I don't wanna talk about it".

"What if...What if I make the pregnancy disappear?" My eyes widen. What?

I move quickly. I think her aunt looked this way.

"What if I make her have the abortion. Using those pills I gave to you".

There's a moment of silence.

"I-I don't know. Those hurt. No I don't think so. Besides how would she take it. If you just give it to her saying it's good for the baby, after they test her everyone's gonna know that you did it".

"Listen Sara. When your mother died she told me to take good care of you. She told me to make you happy. So I'll do anything to make you happy. Besides after the abortion Michael is gonna want someone to comfort him. Akeilia will be too miserable to do so. That way you can comfort Michael and work your way into his arms. Your not ugly baby. Your beautiful. And..I'm a maid here remember? And I'm also not the only maid. You get what I mean?"

Oh no. So even if they found out that it was one of the maids, they wouldn't know exactly who. Even if she's the one that serve her she can always deny it.

"Besides even if she say it's me, anyone of the maids could've done it while I wasn't looking to put the blame on me". My point.

"Yes..yes. Your right. Michael should be mine. I've known him for a very long time. I just wish I'd make a move before this bitch came in the picture". Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god.

"What?" Everyone look at the maids but I can't tell who exactly is her aunt.

"Sara has an aunt who works here? No one told me about that". I look at Sara. The rise and fall of her chest is heavier.

"Sandra".

"What!" She's one of my favorite maids. I always felt a negative vibe from her but I never wanted to analyze it. Thinking maybe it could be just me over thinking things.

The rest of the maids moved away from her. She began to fidget her thumbs, looking nervous. I began to glare at her. She wouldn't even make eye contact.

"Akeilia when I stood that day at the dining table and spill your drink that wasn't a coincidence. I did it because Sandra was the one who served it". This all makes sense.

"I didn't wanna take any chances. I prayed to God the maid didn't washout  the mop instantly. Fortunately she didn't. I took the mop to a corner and took samples from it. I brought it to my doctor and the test results came back positive that misoprostol was in that drink. I have the prof". Misoprostol. I know that pill.

"Sandra". Michael took mad steps towards her. No one stopping him.

"I'm sorry-".

"Shut the f*ck up!" Michael grabbed her throat.

Eva dialed on her phone and put it at her ear before walking off.

"You've been working here for years! I treated you well and this was what you did to me! You were the one who told Sara about the night I planned for Akeilia wasn't it!" That's why Sara planted the camera because she knew that Michael and I was going to make love.

"I...I". Sandra tried to speak. Sara, Sandra. I didn't thought of the similarity.

I rest my hand on my belly. I would've lost both of my babies. Oh my god. This is a serious matter.

"That's enough Michael. When the police arrived I don't want them arresting you for murder. That's enough Michael!" Everyone know how Michael is when he's angry. So everyone keep their distance, but that doesn't mean they won't try to stop him from doing something stupid. But everyone here knew that Sandra deserved it.

Sandra eyes started looking red.

"Michael stop!" Amelia yelled.

Michael shoved her away couple seconds after. She didn't fell. She hold her throat coughing like crazy. Her coughing sounds strained.

Michael began to point at her, but in a suspicious manner.

"Father". Michael said and look at Nicolas. A shocked expression on his face.

"Craigy said something about Christmas gift....Today is Christmas".

I'm feeling a bit disappointed how the comments dropped. I had to threaten you guys the last time to have people comment. You know if you were the one who was writing a story you would've known how important a comment is to you. I love that I got so many reads but the comments are really important to me.

I have to say thanks to all of you who did comment though.

I want you to know that I'M STILL HERE is reaching its destination. If you want more of I'M STILL HERE (sequels) after the story is complete, I need to see the number of comments increase.

I'm planning on writing other books in the future and as you already know I still have MY BODYGUARD and LUCIFER. I'm sure you'll love them. Those who already read Lucifer can tell you. I haven't updated MY BODYGUARD as yet, but I will.

As I said, I really want you silence readers to step out of the box and make some comments. Let me enjoy these last few chapters with you. Whether you were on the journey of reaching this far with me or you've just arrived, it doesn't matter. Send me some comments.

And don't be sad. The story isn't over yet. I only said it's reaching its destination.

Give your thoughts about this chapter.
