Chapter 180
Just then she pulled away from the hug and wiped her tears. She walked towards Daisy and hugged her too.
“Thank you” she muttered to Daisy who nodded in response she smiled at her and with that, she walked out of the house.
She hopped into the car and then Alfred turned to her. He had seen the sad look on her face, he knew she was sad she was leaving. He placed his hands on Lisa’s hands giving them a light squeeze.
He turned to the kids who were in the back seat talking about their new grandma and how nice she was to them. Alfred sighed softly and ignited the engine and just then he zoomed off.
Just then the car screeched to a halt in front of Lisa’s house. The drive was a silent one. Lisa alighted the car with her kids and Alfred. They all walked inside the house. Lisa was already feeling tired so she decided to go to her room and rest.
Alfred turned to the Kids who were still talking non-stop about their new grandma and how she looked so much like their mom.
“Common kids, go to your room,” Alfred said
“But Daddy we are hungry,” the kids said in chorus
“I’ll call you guys when Dinner is ready but for now go to your room,” Alfred said and the kids nodded in response before running to their room upstairs.
Alfred climbed upstairs and planted a soft knock on Lisa’s door. When there was no response he opened the door and walked in.
“Hey,” Alfred muttered as he saw her sitting on the couch with tears in her eyes. He walked towards her and sat close to her.
“Do you think she will ever remember me?” Lisa asked as more tears slipped down her cheeks.
“Of course, she will. You just need to spend enough time with her and with time she will begin to recall gradually. Anything is possible Lisa” Alfred said and hugged her.
Just then he pulled away from the hug and kissed her tears making Lisa blush.
“There’s something I need to tell you,” Alfred said and Lisa raised her eyebrows wondering what he wanted to tell her. She noticed the look on his face and then she swallowed hard.
“Is he leaving? Is that what he’s going to tell me” she thought as she felt her heartbeat increase.
Just then Alfred brought out the papers which the doctor had given him at the hospital.
“You should see this,” Alfred said as he gave Lisa the paper.
“What’s inside?” Lisa asked as she opened the paper which contained the test results that she and both Daniel are siblings.

After Lisa had left Mrs. Rebecca felt so sad. He didn’t know why but she felt so unhappy that Lisa and the kids had left. She felt so happy with them when they were around.
She felt relieved and calm and for the first time in many years she felt overjoyed, she’s never felt so happy with anyone in her entire life. She felt Lisa was her missing piece because the moment she had spent with her, filled the void that was in her heart.
She felt a strange connection towards her but she couldn’t place her fingers on what kind of connection and why.
“Mom are you alright?” Freya asked as she sat close to Mrs. Rebecca. She had noticed the sad look on her face since Lisa and her kids had left.
“There’s something about Lisa. I feel I know her, I feel we are connected in some ways but I do not know…. The feeling is confusing ” Mrs. Rebecca said as she stared at Freya who stared at her without saying a word.
Lisa and Mrs. Rebecca look so much alike so she won’t be surprised if they are related.
“You should go to bed mom. It’s been a long day, you should rest” Daisy’s voice was heard from behind.
“But Daisy….”
“It’s fine mom. You’re gonna be fine. Take your pills and go to bed alright” Daisy said, cutting her off and Mrs. Rebecca nodded before walking inside her room.
“She’s her daughter right?” Freya asked and Daisy turned to her.
“Who?” Daisy asked, pretending not to know what was happening.
“Lisa is her daughter, ” Freya said and Daisy rolled her eyes.
“Why don’t you tell her Lisa is her daughter?” Freya asked and Daisy sighed softly
“I do not want to stress her brain. She’s lost her memories. She won’t be able to remember if I tell her and it might put her in danger” Daisy said in response.
“That’s not true, telling her will make things easier for her to remember. She can feel they have related already, so it would make things easier to remember.
I remember the doctor telling you she will be able to remember her past life if she’s reminded of it time after time but you are hiding everything from her like you do not want her to remember. It’s wrong Daisy” Freya said
“You don’t get to tell me what is wrong or right. I get to decide that, besides you are still a child and know nothing” Daisy said in response.
“Lisa is hurting. We could both see it today. Make things easier for her” Freya said and Daisy shot her a deadly glare.
“You should go to bed, I’m off to the club,” Daisy said and was about to leave when Freya spoke and she stood rooted to a spot.
“You are just being selfish Daisy and this isn’t you,” Freya said and with that Daisy walked out of the house.
If there was something about Daisy, she had always been jealous of Lisa from the start. Even though Mrs. Rebecca treated her the same way she treated Lisa and bought her everything she had bought Lisa, Daisy was never satisfied.
She wanted everything to herself and when she thought Lisa was gone she was happy because she believed Mrs. Rebecca was going to give her all the love she used to share between her and Lisa and now Lisa had come into the picture again.
It made her quite angry but she wasn’t that angry though because she will do anything in her power to make sure Mrs. Rebecca doesn’t remember her precious daughter, Lisa.
