Chapter 1 - Love beyond distance

Mrs Williams just kept her silence after that night and it kept Mr Williams a bit guilty.

Days passed but still the affair between Gloria and Mr Williams continued, he didn't stop or try to

mend his ways and Gloria was so desperate to be his wife but Mr Williams always gave an

excuse that his culture doesn't allow him to get married to another woman.

But Gloria kept on pushing and pushing him until he agreed to marry her, she even asked him to

post her, introducing her to the entire world and Mr Williams did that.

Everyone knows the Williams family has always been the best example of the most respected,

appropriated and kind family.

For they always made sure to always keep peace amongst themselves and those around them,

everyone had his or her own way to describe them.

Mr and Mrs Williams have been married to each other for twelve years now and they have their

daughter named Tina and she goes to school.

Mr Williams has always been known as a family man until this happened.

It was on the Friday morning Mr Williams woke up early and headed straight to work, while Tina

left after him going to school.

Only Mrs Williams was at home alone, she didn't go to work as she wanted to take some rest,

as she didn't have enough rest for the past few months and her health hasn't been that good.

She also planned to spend half of the day with her daughter Tina when she comes back from

school, she cleaned the house and sat on the couch watching online videos on Facebook.

While doing that she came across the post of her husband with another woman and the post

said " meet my new wife " this post left Mrs Williams shattered completely.

She then put her phone away and started crying and went to pack her bags, even though she

was still in shock she didn't want to stay in that house for another minute.

While she was packing Mr Williams arrived and looked at her and said "where are you off to",

Mrs Williams looked at him without saying anything.

He asked again but Mrs Williams just looked at him, tears falling, he then got annoyed and

shouted at her and Mrs Williams slapped him.

She then said "I'm walking out of this marriage," Mr Williams didn't utter a word after that but

when Mrs Williams said that she will be taking Tina along.

Mr Williams said she shouldn't dare try it and Mrs Williams argued that Tina is her daughter too,

but he said that he will take her to court - in order to keep her away from Tina for good.

Mrs Williams just stood there looking at him, tears falling non-stop.

Mrs Williams then continued packing her stuff and went to sit outside waiting for Tina to come

back from school.

Mr Williams received a call from work and left the house immediately.

Tina got back from school and saw her mother sitting outside crying and she got worried about

her and hugged her mother to make her feel not too lonely.

Mrs Williams then told her that she was leaving and she can't take her along with her.

Tina started crying after she told her the reason she was leaving and why she can't take her

along with her.

Mrs Williams promised Tina that she will be visiting her at school and after that they both bid

goodbyes.

Mrs Williams left the house and she went to her aunt's house as she couldn't let her mother

know about what happened.

Due to her health conditions she thought it wise to stay with her aunt for the meantime.

On the other hand Tina is in her room crying and worried about her mother.

Mr Williams on his way back from work brings his new wife home which made Tina very angry

and decided to go to Precious's house.

To spend the night there not under the same roof with someone who made her mother leave.

When Tina arrived at Precious's house, Precious's siblings Lisa and Mike mocked her saying

that "you are being chased by a rat or monkey."

As to why she came to their house late at night.

Mr Collins gave the two a sign so that they stop mocking Tina.

Tina then asked Precious to have a word with her in private.

Precious immediately grabbed Tina's hand and took her to her room.

Tina started crying and Precious hugged her and asked her what was and she even assumed

she was crying because of Mike and Lisa's mock.

So Precious apologized on their behalf but Tina says that it wasn't because of that and she told

her that her mother left the house and her father brought in a new wife.

Precious comforts her and tells her not to give up and to be strong for her mother, Tina wasn't

sure about that though nor had any hope left in her.

When Precious noticed that Tina was still sad about what happened she started showing her

some funny videos to keep her mind distracted.

She even suggested they watch a movie and while they were doing that Tina asked if they could

spend the night with her and Precious agreed to that.

Precious even joked saying that " you are welcome to start working here as a security guard",

and Tina said "of course my lady I'm at your service".

They both laughed and held each other's hand saying that "we will be friends forever and ever"

they smiled looking at each other and hugged.

A few minutes later they went to sleep as they were going to church the next day.

It's Saturday morning and Tina helped Precious to clean the house and she went to get a few

clothes for herself and came back.

When she got back Precious was ready and she went to get ready, when they were both ready

they immediately left the house and went to church.

After church Tina sees her mother and aunt, she was so happy the three of them spent the

whole day together until evening.

Well Precious couldn't stay back with them as she had an afternoon class to attend.

Mrs Williams gave Tina a necklace and told her to keep it safely and she promised not to take it

off and Mrs Williams and her aunt went back home.

Tina was so excited about having the necklace as she has always wanted the necklace and now

she has it.

Tina got home a little bit late and her father shouted at her and the new wife Gloria told him to

just let her be.

In her room Tina just looked at her necklace until she fell asleep and her father went to check on

her before going to sleep.

The day it was Sunday and Gloria left the house early going to church but Tina was left at home

with her father.

Mr Williams tried to cheer her up but Tina wasn't interested in any of that rather she just ignored

him and went to see her friend Precious.

Gloria came back home in the afternoon but it was a bit early and she said she was feeling sick

so she had to come back home.

Mr Williams suggested they go to the hospital but she refused saying that it wasn't that serious.

Now it's evening and Gloria says that her sudden illness was getting worse and Mr Williams was

forced to drive her to the hospital late at night.

When they got there Mr Williams was told by the doctor that his wife was four - months pregnant

and she shouldn't go under stress for it will affect the baby.

Mr Williams assured that she won't get any stress from anyone, after that the doctor injected

Gloria.

And the doctor told Mr Williams not to worry and that he can go home and come back tomorrow

Mr Williams leaves the hospital and goes home.

When he reached home he saw Tina sitting outside crying as she was missing her mother.

Mr Williams felt guilty and hugged her but Tina walked away and went to her room and

continued crying.

Tina then dosed off while crying.

It's Monday morning and Tina and Precious walked together to school and they were talking all

the way until they arrived at school.

But during break time Precious sat down with her few friends and they told her that Tina has

been gossiping about with other kids at school and they mentioned her flirting with her

boyfriend.

The days Precious wasn't around and this made Precious upset and left her friends feeling

betrayed and hurt.

It was after school and Tina walked to Precious's class and Precious ignored her and walked to

her friends.

Tina was confused and went to Lisa and asked her if Precious said anything to her or if

something happened but Lisa said she didn't know anything.

Tina was hurt completely and went home alone.

When she got home she just stayed in her room without eating or talking to anyone, just crying

till she fell asleep.

The next day Tina didn't go to school as she was not feeling well and Mr Williams tells Lisa

when he saw her on her way to school.

Lisa then told Precious about it and she acted like she didn't care a bit about that, then Lisa

asked what happened and why she's acting like that towards Tina.

Precious didn't say anything to Lisa and walked away to her class, Lisa just wondered as she

went to class too.

On the other hand Mr Williams on his way back from work goes to check on his wife and the

doctor says that he can take her home.

So he took his wife home, when they both reached home Mr Williams called out to Tina so that

she could bring out some items from the car and also Gloria's bags.

But Tina didn't respond so he thought she wasn't around, Mr Williams helped Gloria to lay down

on the bed comfortably and went to bring out the stuff from the car.

A few minutes later he received a call from work that he will be going on a business trip, he

informed his wife about it and she agreed for him to go saying that Tina will look after her.

Now it's evening and Mr Williams is leaving the house going on a business trip for two weeks,

he informed Tina about it when she stepped out of her room going to the kitchen.

Tina didn't say anything to him; she immediately went back to her room as she was still sad and

confused about Precious's sudden behavior towards her.

Gloria just looked at Tina and smiled in a weird way, and decided to pay three boys to attack

Tina and planned to pretend to be very sick the next day.

She made food for herself and threw away the remaining food in the dustbin and went to sleep,

Tina later in the evening she was feeling hungry and went to the kitchen thinking there was food

for her.

But she didn't find anything even the leftovers. She then made a cup of tea and took four slices

of pizza which her father had brought from work on Friday.

After eating she went to check on her stepmother if she didn't want anything, she noticed she

was fast asleep and she went to her room to sleep as well.

It was Sunday morning Tina got ready to go to church and Gloria told her to wash all the

blankets saying that they have her useless mother's sweat.

Tina got upset and left the house without saying anything.

When she left she went to her aunt's house and spent the whole day with her mother and her

aunt. They were all enjoying and having fun together.

On the other hand Precious and her friends went to attend a birthday party.

Precious wasn't comfortable with them as they were all drinking alcohol and she has done that

before, she just sat on her own drinking juice they laughed at her so she left the party.

They even laughed more and mocked her saying "she's so old fashioned like her cheap,

annoying friend Tina" they laughed even more.

Precious went back home and Lisa was surprised to see how she came home so early, and

asked if there's anything wrong but Precious said she didn't like what was going on there and

went to her room.

Well, it's dark and Tina's mother suggested that she goes back home as her stepmother is sick,

Tina didn't want to go back there.

But her mother forced her to go and she left.

When she got there her stepmother was sitting outside crying, claiming that her back was so

painful and sent Tina to go and buy medication at a nearby pharmacy.

But Tina didn't find the medication there and was forced to walk a long distance from there to

find another pharmacy and she got the medication.

Tina started walking back home fast and three boys were following her behind.
