I planted myself into my couch, leaving a shaky breath, I grabbed my towel and wiped my sweat off my face, I looked at my mirror, the true colour of my face showing, the real face I was hiding from everyone, I looked at my reflection, for once, I saw Odette Rose Carter again, I wish I could be her, again. 

I grabbed swiped through my phone to drift my mind again, maybe something can help clear my mind? Instagram? Youtube?

The Carter Industries to tie a business deal with Kathrine Fobes?

Who is Kathrine Forbes? Billionaire businesswoman or a huge mystery?

I threw my phone over my side and covered my face in my hands, weeping silently, my body shaking with the intensity of my cries, I am weak again, I was becoming weak after years of trying to be strong, those walls I made all crumbled into dust when I saw him again.

I felt a soft hand on my left shoulder, I looked to my side and saw my daughter with her eyes filled, her blue eyes emitting her love for me.

'' Momma, why are you crying? did daddy hurt you?'' she asked gently wiping my tears with her tiny hands, I looked at her with my mouth agape, how did she know that he was her father?

''Who Lia?'' I asked making her sit on my lap. She wiped my tears with her little hands and smiled cheekily at me.

''That uncle that we met today, he said that I can call him daddy'' Lia chuckled making my heart twist in agony. When did Eric say that to her? I won't let him take away my daughter from me again.

'' No my child, he, he is not your father and doesn't call him that'' I lied hugging her tight ''Will you listen to Mumma? Don't call him that ''

She nodded slightly and kissed my cheeks deeply making me chuckle, I don't want to lose the only ray of sunlight to him, I hugged her again and looked at the night sky with yearning, My moon is my daughter and I was missing my sun.

I dragged my suitcase into the airport, covering my face with my clutch, its wheels making a sound against the ceramic, flashes of the media camera blinding me as my daughter held the edge of my dress to save herself from the crowd, I was safe once I entered the airport, away from the swarming media, I was going to London, the place I was born to meet with, Eric, I don't from where I am getting that courage. I always hated this publicity and there is no salvation from this until my death.

I opened my phone and his message flashes on my screen, I frown at it when I read it.

Eric - Kat, meet you in London, can't wait to see you again friend! See you soon! Happy Journey!

Love, E.E.C 

I smiled slightly and walked towards the private jet that awaited me, I picked my daughter in my arms, she wrapped her arms around my neck and snuggled in my neck, she was sleepy as it was so early in the morning, she was quick to fall onto the lap of slumber and I knew when I felt her gentle breaths on my neck.
