MAID IN MANHATTAN

CHAPTER THREE

MR MATTHEW'S

Seeing my daughter run out of the building broke my heart more than anything in the world not even the business deals or money worth millions that I've lost pained or broke my heart this much. Yes I'm married but I'm not happy in it ,Sonya on the other hand is my world she completes me I most times wished I had married her instead but sometimes things don't go has planned. I gave my wife a divorce but she refused to sign it, my children are worse than criminals they make me regret giving life to make them.

Anna changed my regrets ,she changed everything my world and purpose changed with her as I began to live for the both of them. Losing them now would wreck me I can't live without them. At first when I met Sonya I never noticed her she was way too innocent soon enough, I started liking her personality she had so many that interests me so I hired her to work for me and my family. At first my wife hated the idea later on,she accepted her along the line I always wanted her around me so I made up every excuse necessary. I was sure she felt something for her so one fateful day, asked her to come for dinner with me outside that it was a treat to apologize for my past behaviour which she accepted. That night I couldn't control my feelings so I spilled it out I knew It scare her but I had to ,I'm not bad no I truly meant everything I said to her to my surprise she didn't run she just blushed and flung herself on me it was the best feeling ever.

Like every woman, she refused saying it was wrong and I knew it was but still I can't throw away my feelings for her just like that no not yet. She makes me feel things I never felt before we started going out on dates had fun sporting and adventuring. I couldn't have asked anything more than that until the inevitable happened I wanted to go on a long trip so I told her and she was upset that I was leaving her without a gift or anything to remember me,how sure was I that I was going to return? I told her I will and I will give her the most valuable gift ever which was how we made Anna. On my return, she was in labour I went straight to her and was there when my lovely Anna was brought to the world. She was so tiny beautiful and innocent when I held her, I felt complete my world was complete.

Like they say "all good things must surely come to an end" so it was for me, my wife's friend who used to work at the hospital found out about this and told my wife her friend which turned into an hella kind of trouble. Let's just say it wasn't good not even one bit.

Everything became bad my new found family suffered in the hands of my wife and children, growing up became worse for my daughter she was always bullied and she suffered grave danger too. I had to take them away from Brooklyn to Manhattan she also became distant and we fell apart in communication too. Soon enough her mum was able to through to her and they started talking which I also did too.

Every thing was fine until the doctor told me that the mother of my child is going to die within four month. I watched as Anna ran out the house with shock and pain written all over her face ,I followed her outside but I couldn't catch up with her I knew she needed space so I let her be.

I waited as long as I possibly can but she didn't return ,I went to bed hoping she'll come back later. After a really long sleep, I jerked up to the beeping of the CCTV , you might be wondering why a CCTV was placed in her room well you see we had to because we needed to know when things was wrong with,when she's not fine it was really helpful.

I rushed to check the screen and I saw that there where clothes  on the bed and the bathroom's door was ajar but Anna is not there... Where could she be,last night everything was left in place and now it's like a pigsty. Something isn't right and I know it I can feel it in the pit of my stomach.

I ran to her room but it was locked Damn! Where are the spare keys?I'm not alarmed I just need to check if she's alright then suddenly, I felt cold and I'm not joking right now ,I mean serious cold. My palm became clammy and my nerves began to reach its peak as I pushed and broke down the door.

Reaching inside, I called to Anna but didn't hear nothing. I knocked on the door I didn't want to peep in case she's inside but no answer ,I pushed the door open and then "Oh My God!"

Anna!Anna! No this can't be happening,I saw my sweet pea lying there in her own pool of blood. I rushed to the edge of the tub with one thing on my mind, saving my daughter .

"Anna please stay with me ..please" I cried bitterly placing my head on hers knowing I might have been too late. I hate my self so much I couldn't save her mother and now, I still couldn't save her too I'm a total failure. I failed as a husband now I'm failing as a father... I can't lose them both, I can't let it happen if I wasn't able to save her mother I'll save my daughter.

It's almost six am, I reached for my phone and dialed 911. There will be here in know time... Heaven knows I'll  die if I lose my family or maybe not ,maybe I was on time. On time to save my angel just maybe if I'm right.
