Till Death Do Us Path

" Mum, from now on this is our apartment. I have to take full responsibility of you from now on, and please don't worry about anything " Gwenevere said to her mum as they walked into the sitting room. 

" Gwen, what about your father? Do you think he will be fine? " Gwen's mum couldn't hold back the stream of tears that was about to escape her eyes

" I've told you to stop calling that monster my father, I hate him not only him, all men are the same. They are a bunch of idiots " Gwen started boiling with anger.

" Just have a glimpse of yourself mum, you look so pale. Please, I don't want to talk about it now " Gwen said while looking at her mother's pale skin. 

" Gwenevere….. " Mrs Bautista wanted to say more but she started feeling dizzy and her legs couldn't carry her anymore. 

" Mum " Gwen hugged her mum as she cried silently.

" I will take you to your room, you need to freshen up and regain some strength " She held her mother's hand and took her upstairs.

Gwenevere Bautista is a Twenty-five year's beautiful girl. She never knew that love existed between a husband and wife because of the domestic violence her mum receives from her dad every day.

Gwen's dad beats up her mum every day, sometimes he uses a chain or his belt. He would starve them for days, without having mercy on his little daughter.

Everything was still fresh in Gwen's memory. when she was a child, she thought her mum was dead because she passed out after receiving a thorough beating from her husband.

" Mum! Mum! Mum! Please wake up. Dad, mum isn't waking up " Little Gwen let out her emotions after thinking that she had lost her mum. 

" I'm sure that your future husband will also treat you this way. So, geso t used to it ". Mr.Bautista said to his little daughter who was just Eight years old.

Gwen couldn't hold back her tears after remembering that particular incident. 

After her college education, she decided to take her mum out of the house and give her a better life.

" I won't let my mum suffer anymore, I will look for decent work and take good care of her " Gwen concluded before she dozed off.

Gwen was so tired after cleaning, arranging, and dusting the apartment, she wouldn't let her mum do anything because of her condition.

………..

Late at Night Kathryn couldn't sleep because she hadn't heard from her lover. 

" Is she Okay? Noo! She hasn't stayed a whole day without texting or calling me " Sleep was far away from Kathryn.

" Fuck! It's been two days now, is she that busy? Damm it! I'm horny " Kathryn kept murmuring. She touched her hard nipple and then rushed to the bathroom to shower, she was feeling so hot inside. 

……

Gwen woke up very early and prepared breakfast, she called her mum downstairs and they both walked to the dining. 

Gwen looked so happy, she was humming a song while eating. Her mum was surprised.

" What's with you this morning? " Mrs. Bautista asked her daughter. 

Gwen was so absent-minded that she couldn't even hear her mum speaking. Her cheeks turned red, she was blushing so hard.

" Don't tell me that you are seeing a man, without my knowledge? " Mrs. Bautista became more curious and she hit Gwen on her head because she wasn't listening to her.

" Mum, why did you hit me so hard? I've told you to take your mind off men because I'm not getting married," Gwen said as she got up from the dining table.

" And where are you going, madam? " Her mum asked, looking more curious. 

" Mum, I'm going to stay out late tonight so don't wait for me, okay? " Gwen didn't wait for her mum's reply as she rushed out with her handbag.

" But what's with her? Yesterday she almost cried down this entire building, why the sudden happiness this morning? "Curious, Laura Bautista couldn't pinpoint why Gwen was acting so strange. 

………….

" Oops!! I'm fucking happy today " Gwen was screaming as she was walking on the road. She drew so much attention unknowingly to her. 

She stopped walking and decided to start running, she kept on running and jumping. It's indeed a good sight to behold.
