✨AALIYAH✨
Using spoken language to express my thoughts, ideas and feelings was the best thing that ever happened to me. So amazing that I couldn’t believe it’s true.
I was discharged from the hospital after treatment. Ric told aunt Alisa to take us to her priest. Then she took us to church, I smiled faintly as Ric walked towards the parsonage, whistling. We were greeted together warmly and Dad gave an expression of gratitude verbally
Rev. Anthony thanked him for his generosity as he donated 100 Million US Dollars to his mission.
Ric later donated money to purchase new grounds and a three story brick building served 100 students with a condition that can be disrespectful and dehumanizing and donated money for another hall to be built next to it.
After that priest Anthony stood up. He was vested in a violet cope, prayed. “God will send His angel this hour, vouchsafe, to hear my prayer and grant your desires through the merits of our savior Jesus Christ, and of His blessed mother” And we all chorused in unison. “Amen.”
When we got back to Ric’s mansion, Ric looked at me and said. “Why don’t you go lie down on the sofa and close your eyes for a little while” I nodded forgotten I could now talk to him.
I was lying on a long, upholstered seat usually which often convertible into a bed when Kohen joined us in the living room with Dad’s documents and handed it over to him.
“I’m so grateful for all that you’ve done” Dad appreciated Kohen
“Glad I could help” Kohen smiled
“Starlight I’m going back home today” Dad said to me
“Let her stay with me for a while, I promise she will return to your residence. I want her to follow me to my office, we should be back at your mansion by 9 PM.” Ric responded before I could express myself
“One more time please” Ric was rubbing his hand together and then with a silly expression he pulled a funny face at Dad.
I couldn’t stop laughing and Dad nodded as everyone laughed at Ric
“Alisa thank you for your support, you should go home and take care of yourself” Dad told aunt Alisa as he stood up and leaned over to place a soft kiss on my forehead. “Be safe” He whispered in my ear.
Kohen was rewarded for his efforts with a cash bonus before Dad walked out of the house.

About two hours later, I settled myself comfortably in the plush office chair, I propped my feet up on Ric’s desk and began to sketch until his picture began to look as I wanted it to.
Ric’s office was comfortable, it made me feel physically relaxed as I spent time in it because it was warm and has nice furniture. It was such an all-round brilliant experience for me as a first-time visitor
“Boss we are waiting for you in the conference room upstairs” Ric’s Secretary spoke up as he entered into his office
“I have been summoned into the conference room for a meeting. Let’s go” Ric told me
I dropped my art journal on his desk and followed him. He held my hand with our fingers interlocked as we strode to the elevator and punched the button for the top floor
I glanced round the conference room and it was composed of a large 300-shaped table with chairs, several flip chart easels, and a coffee pot. We were served coffee, tea, and cookies as we took our seats in the front row
The company had more than 200 employees and they were all men. I felt weird sitting amidst the hundreds of these young men
Ric ranged his eyes over the uncongested conference room and began his speech. He introduced me as his girlfriend and Richard Robert’s Company heiress
I heard murmurings of strong difference of opinions among the workers and they looked at me rather strangely.
I stared at Ric and tugged at his arm. He brushed my hair back from my face and stroked my cheek gently. After combing my hair backward. “It is expected” He said in a calm tone and a kind of peacefulness overcame me as he wrapped his arm around me
