After everything she went through, this was the last straw. With tears rolling down her cheeks, Sofia was staring at her Five-year-old daughter, Monica. She was hospitalized all because of that cheating bastard. "This is all my fault "this time no one will hurt us again... I promise, I can't believe I got married to a monster. Few months ago, I went back to the house because I left some important documents. The door wasn't liked properly so I thought there was a break in...I grabbed a baseball bat, there was some noise coming from upstairs, i went to check it out.Who would have thought it was my husband and his so called cousin that stayed with us for thanksgiving last year, they were on our bed, making love.I dropped the base ball bat because shocked... He didn't look remorseful one bit he just stared. "Frederick.. I said still unable to comprehend what was happening in front of me."Are you going to stare all day, get out"

  it was her Blanca, they had the audacity to do this on our matrimonial bed.

He even hurt Monica more than once, that's it I give up, am done with this marriage. I went downstairs and took and bucket of cold water and I let them have it. "You bitch! " that's what Blanca said. Bitch let me show you how a bitch works I grabbed her by her hair and dragged her out of the bed. I didn't know where I had that kind of strength from, he did nothing just stare. She kept on struggling and Calling " Freddie " the name sounded very cheesy. I through her outside with her clothes she was half ***** she held her cloth trying to cover her body. "For better or for worst, remember dear" I said then took my document from my wardrobe and left. I never thought he was capable of hurting our own daughter,with his own two hands he took her to this hospital. The doctor said she's fine but I know this was far from fine. He had to pay.... If I took him to court he will use his mental illness and get away with it.

This time I won't let that happen, Frederick always had a temper but I never knew it could reach this length. When it came to Monica something about him changes, he's agitated when she does things wrong but for heaven's sake! She's just a child. The feeling of pain and regret was overwhelming, it made me broke down again. I held her little hands... "Am sorry Moni,mummy will do better.... I will protect you " there was only one thing to do in order to protect I and Monica, to get a divorce.

No matter how hard I tried I couldn't bring myself to love Frederick. We got married based on a business deal with our parents. Monica is his biological daughter so why is he so mean to her, he's still paranoid and thinks she is Victor's daughter. I had put up this for five years, the infidelity, the abuse, the mistrust and am done! am done with this crappy marriage. I gave my all but is this what I get, I lost myself trying to please a man whose heart is as cold as ice and as hard as a rock but no more. "Its enough, I have to move on" I have to stay strong for myself and for Monica I said to myself. Am Sofia Ranger,am 25 years old,am a teacher whose trying to live for her daughter and for myself. I've depended on my family and husband for a long time, its high time I depend on myself.

It took some time to get the old Moni back, not the quiet and restrained type. She was playing with some kids in the park, that was the beauty of the park. Kids playing, spending quality time with the family and friends. Speaking of family, I spoke to mum today, she asked us to come over for a family dinner. She also asked about Frederick, if he was going to join us and gladly he wasn't. I couldn't deal with his drama and my family's own too. I didn't tell her about what happened to Moni, I learned a long time ago that I couldn't depend on her or anyone from that family.I had always handle my issues and kept it all to myself because I've been betrayed by the ones I trusted most. I just had to focus on more important things, Monica and my job. My father didn't think twice when he married me off to that lunatic. I was great with my job but as for my family it was a mess.I still blame myself for what happened to Moni, that event keep playing in my head everytime I see her scars. I wonder how she's coping, she's really a fighter. Moni was laughing and smiling broadly when she fell down trying to catch the ball. The only thing that mattered was being a good Mom to Moni. I took some time from work and I asked Susan to bring our things from that man house but she encouraged me to be bold and strong. Get the restraining order and the divorce papers ready, I did try I rented an apartment and took some clothes from the house. Its been a month since We've spoken, she's right i have to be bold and strong, i texted my lawyer, yesterday to get restraining order and the divorce papers ready. He should have receive it by now... Frederick,He's just unpredictable what kind of excuse will he come up with... He will surely make one up. He should be grateful am only getting a divorce.He should be kept behind bars but surely he will use his medical issues as an excuse, how pitiful. He sent some messages begging me to redraw my complain

"let's talk it out... I need to explain "

"Please, Sofi we need to talk, it's really important "

"We don't have to do this, let's talk it out like a family "

"Please come back home "

he's such a actor if I didn't know him I would have believed him... Its very laughable... Who does he take me for? A kid? A love sick puppy? No way this is love, Am never going back to him. If I realized how he was a long time ago I won't have agreed to the arranged marriage.I kept on reading his messages, important alright... Men, why do they always want to be in charge of everything but not this time. He made a mistake and it can't be justified. I promise myself not to allow any harm come to Moni ever again. Even if I forgive I can't go back to him, what will I tell Monica when she ask about her dad again? It really hurts,i don't know how to put it in the way she will understand... She loves her father so much.

Detective Clive Dwight

Taking down that serial killer wasn't easy but one less monster to think about.Monsters yes that's what they are, they look like humans but they have the hearts of monsters. I've been getting more cases than usual and more popular too especially with the ladies, even the well known lady journalist, Sarah whinstone. Things keep on getting better and better I said admiring the picture I took with the mayor.

I squeezed a paper and threw it to the bin, it didn't enter so I tried again and again... Basketball is really my favorite kind of sport, I just need to practice more to get the hang of it again. The door opened,it was Travis...my partner, he's crazy but fun to be with.... He's also my best friend. "Dude our mail is like going crazy and look what I've got love letters"

"From your ma right?... I said laughing we always tease each other. "Not cool I got other girls other than my mums " yeah he has two mothers, his birth mum and the mother who raised and adopted him. "Here this ones for you, he brought a box of letters the first one was a love letter. I've been getting those since monday, I was just 11 when I gave my first love letter to Sarah Whinstone. The same one that's is giving me her attention now, its funny really... "Seems like I need to get my own mail box" to tell you the truth I was excited... Its my first time getting this kind of token. I saw a letter from a little girl, Mia, i saved her from a kidnapper at so long ago.

"Uncle Clive, thank You for saving my life... When I grow up I want to marry you... ❤ Mia" Ain't that cute.I took a wodden box, it was on top of some of the letters. It looked weird and and new it was like it was carved by an exper. I opened it and saw a scroll it was tied with a blue ribbon, it had floral designs on it. It looked familiar but I couldn't figure out where I saw it. It liked those kind of scrolls that they use to in royal palace but it's the 21st century who will go to the trouble of doing this. I decided to read the letter.

"Greetings Detective Clive

congrats on your case

Heres my gift to you

A mermory to keep in mind

its very fragile

some broken

and others are bound to break

Like what the heck is this,i saw a white envelope, I opened it and saw Raina Williams and her little daughter Claire... Next was written on it with a red marker, Mrs Greta and little Sally, then my Girlfriend who died it was crossed with a red marker. My blood began to boil.. I quickly checked who sent it....

"Travis who sent this? "

"There's no name on it? "

"If there was I wouldn't have asked... I was beginning to get irritated and anxious "relax buddy, they found it in front of the office... Your name was written on it ''

"Are You okay it looks like you've seen a ghost"

"Someone threatened my family, take this to the forensic experts I will go and check the Surveillance cameras " he quickly went out with the box. Z... He can't be alive,he just can't and yes I really did see a ghost. Dammit I hit the desk, "Roslyn I will avenge you I swear"
