The diary 2
Chapter 31
Elliot opened the next page of the diary in tears.
"Ever since then I hardly see Kingsley and whenever he comes home, he will come home with the lady that he is sleeping with.
When I asked him about the lady, he told me she is his secretary until I visited his presidential office to see him sleeping with the girl again.
When they saw me, they didn't mind, they just continued with their business.
I fainted there, I saw the bodyguard again the next morning and the doctor said I have hypertension which can lead to my sudden death.
The doctor prescribed me some medication and I started using it.
Kingsley come home drunk the night and he still rape me, I went to sleep in my baby room.
Kingsley went out the next morning like he didn't care, and he brought his bitch home and I couldn't withstand her bullying my child, dear diary, so I sent Elliot to his grandmother's place.
I was going on the street when I fainted again, the people in the neighborhood took me to the hospital, where I discovered that I have lung cancer.
The doctor told me that my hypertension and cancer has reached the last stage that it can be cured, and only death can cure it.
I told him I couldn't sleep, and he also prescribed me some medicine, which I used. Kingsley never asked about me.
He will order me to cook for him and his bitch everyday and he doesn't notice Elliot is not in the house.
He came back home one day with his bitch, they gave me one drug saying the bodyguard told them my predicament.
I flushed the drug but I saw the bitch which I later discovered was Queenie. She tiptoed to my room and she exchanged the doctor's medication.
She tiptoed back out of my room after she had exchanged the drug.
I checked the drug and it turns out to be the same one they gave me which I flushed.
I went to the hospital and gave it to my doctor, he said the drug is insulin and it can lead to my death.
So I intentionally use the insulin, I overdose it because I want to make Kingsley regret his actions.
After so much overdosing of the insulin then I began to bleed from the nose and my doctor told me I don't have much time left."
This was the end of the diary.
Elliot gritted his teeth and he rushed out.
"Elliot!, Elliot! Elliot!" Mr. Lawyer shouted rushing after her but Elliot had zoomed off already.
He put the car at higher speed and he sped to his penthouse, he thought he would meet Ethan and Wymond but they were not there.
He doesn't know what to do now, his life is a mess.
He remembers that he cried the day his mother left him at his granny's place.
And his mother gave him her photo frame that night.
He bursted into tears ruffling and scattering his hair.
"That witch killed mum!" He shouted weeping profusely.
He suddenly picked his phone and dialed the first number that came to his mind.
And it was Irene's number, Irene picked up at first ring.
Irene thought she was dreaming when she saw Elliot's call because she was the one that used to call and not him.
So, she hastenstly picks up the call.
"Hello" her voice came in a whisper but all she could hear was whimpers and sobs.
"Elliot, are you there?" She asked, suddenly scared.
"She killed mum and I don't know about it" Elliot cried hugging the throw pillow.
"Elliot, should I come over" Irene whispered but Elliot was just crying without uttering a word.
He is so down, he feels worthless and pitiful.
Irene took his silence as a go ahead, so she started to sing a lullaby from him but he was still wiping.
After some minutes of lullaby, Irene couldn't hear his sob nor wiping again, so she assume he is sleeping.

The next day as Irene woke up, she immediately booked a flight for herself to fly down back to Italy.
She has pack her belongings and the Irene coming home is not the same tomboy Irene, it is the female Irene who is dressed in a wine short skimpy skirt which reaction her mid thigh and a white crop top, a heart chain around her neck, a heel and a light makeup, at least she can become a girl for her Elliot.
Aunt Caroline noticed Irene's sudden movement.
"Irene, where are you going?" Aunt Caroline asked.
"Flying back to my love in Italy, he needs me more than you do now" Irene replied and Aunt Caroline chuckled.
"So you are finally admitting that you are a girl" Aunt Caroline mocked.
"Aunt, thank you very much for changing me and making me realize that being a girl is better than being a tomboy and thanks for teaching me how to cook, thanks for everything" Irene muttered with a smile.
"Are you crazy, why are you being cringe worthy? '' Aunt Caroline replied, wiping the tears that were threatening to fall.
"I will see you enter the plane with my eyes" Aunt Caroline wants to cry but she enters the room.
She came back with a pen, she handed it to Irene and Irene chuckled.
"What will I use a pen to do?" Irene asked.
"It's not just a pen but a recording pen" Aunt Caroline said and Irene nodded.
"Like this" Aunt Caroline pressed a button and she talked into the pen and the pen record immediately.
Irene smiles beautifully that she can be gifted this kind of rare pen, she will make sure to keep it.
Irene checks her phone and it's time for her to fly.
She wheeled her belongings to the car and Aunt Caroline drove her, they arrived at the plane.
Irene was going in when Aunt Caroline held her.
"Irene I will miss you because I have got used to you already" Aunt Caroline cried hugging Irene as Irene also chuckled.
"See who is saying someone is being cringe worthy" Irene replied also hugging Aunt Caroline.
She enters the plane and waves at Aunt Caroline, Aunt Caroline also waves back with a smile.
Immediately the plane flew, Aunt Caroline called Mrs. Natalie.
"Hello, sister-in-law, I hope my brother is giving you very well?" Aunt Caroline asked.
"Of course, but why did you call? Mrs. Natalie asked.
"Irene is coming down to Italy" Aunt Caroline said and Mrs. Natalie gasps.
"Why the fuck is that tomboy coming back?" Mrs. Natalie barked.
"Don't worry, she is not the tomboy Irene, she is the feminine Irene" Aunt Caroline replied.
"Give her the phone!" Mrs. Natalie said.
"Too bad, her plane has left already," Aunt Caroline replied.
"Fuck!, I've got to prepare for her trouble" Mrs. Natalie said.
"Nope, she is not back because of you but because of someone important to her" Aunt Caroline replied.
"Okay, take care" Mrs. Natalie said and she hung up the phone.

Iris was sleeping tiredly, even her part time jobs didn't stress her like this, she slept on the bed like a log of wood.
Her hair is scattered in her face and her two legs go separately.
Granny Mabel entered Iris' unlocked room in her wheelchair.
Granny Mabel smirks because she has a bottle of cold water in her hand, it's 5:30 and Iris hasn't get ready.
Granny Mabel emptied the bottle of cold water on Iris and she shouted from her sleep.
She rubbed her eyes and wrapped her cold body with the duvet.
"Granny, why?" She shouted.
"It's 5:30 already" Granny Mabel replied with a smirk.
"Yeah, so what?" She replied and her eyes widened immediately.
Her arrogant boss said his breakfast should be ready before seven.
"Thank you granny!" She replied and dashed into the bathroom.
"I like your new boss" Granny Mabel said and she wheeled her wheelchair outside.
Iris gritted her teeth in the bathroom because she heard what granny Mabel said.
After having her bath, Iris wore a black leggings and a white top.
She let her hair fall to her shoulder cutely and she applied lip balm with a black sneakers.
She prepares some noodles for her and granny Mabel.
She helps granny Mabel with extra side dishes for lunch.
She left the house in her scooter by six o'clock am, she arrived at Ace penthouse by six thirty am.
She bit her lower lips because she was very well aware that he would nag.
She will find something to cook within thirty minutes.
By the time she got inside, he was already in his suit, he looked cooperative and handsome, Iris thought.
But she immediately shakes the thought of her head, he isn't, he is a cocky bastard.
Iris slips into the kitchen thinking he was not aware, because he is making a call.
Ace chuckled and he checked the watch on his wrist.
Iris came back after ten minutes with a cup of tea and bread.
She dropped the bread and tea on the dining table.
She was nervous on how to call him but her subconscious boosted her morale.
'Have you forgotten that you are the one that beat more than three hefty men, he is just a small chicken you can deal with?' Her subconscious whisper.
She finally gathered courage and went to him.
"Good morning, Mr ice!" Iris said before biting her tongue.
Ace glared at her before focusing back at his laptop.
"Your breakfast is ready" She said and Ace left for the dinning table.
Iris follows quietly, not making a sound.
