With unsteady feets, I glanced down at my wristwatch once more checking the time. "Seriously, is she not going to come?"

It was past 4pm now and I'd asked Tina to meet me here by the coffee shop by 2; in a nutshell, I'd been waiting here for a whopping 2hours plus now!.

The coffee shop door main entrance was pushed open and once again, I turned towards it expectant.

I heaved in relief when Tina's silhouette came to view.

"Tina, over here!" I called, waving at her to get her to see me but when she did, she regarded me with disdain.

'It's okay'. I told myself over and over again. 'Let's just put up with Tina for a little while. This is to get Ciara back, afterall'.

When Tina was seated Infront of me, I offered her a drink. "Would you like some coff--"

"I don't drink caffeine so get to the point, Ryan. What's this about your company failing?"

I knew that if I wanted Ciara's contact, I had to tell Tina the truth so that I did. "Anne sucked me dry. She took all the money I'd gather

    Jonathan As I layed down on the couch. I wait for the girls to finish their discussion. "But Alena doesn't have to shut me out everytime" I whine. "I would also like to be involved in their little talks"But then, I could understand Alena's attachment to Ciara. It could probably be because Ciara filled the scars Julia left on her. "What are you thinking about, big guy?" Alena says, plunging beside me on the couch. "Are you and Ciara through with your little talks?""Yup, she's all yours now" Putting on a serious face, she asks. "Have you told Ciara about the 'you know what' yet?"She was talking about the fact that I wanted to apply for a desk Job. "She knows there's something I want to tell her but I told her to give me more time""You'll kill it, dad so don't sweat over it"Leaning towards Alena, I place a soft kiss on her forehead. "Thanks, buddy"Ciara rejoins us in the living room. "I'm done arranging my things""Fantastic. Are you hungry?""Yes, but I would like to make a me

    Ciara"Is that all for the day?" Jonathan inquired az we leave my father's grave; parting ways with Kendall. "I want to stop home for a bit and get some few clothes since I'm going to be moving in with you"Jonathan pouts. "You don't like wearing my shirt?" "You know that's not what I meant" I throw a jab against his stomach with my elbow. "I just don't want to give Alena ideas"Jonathan pulls me closer to me. "But what she'll be thinking is exactly what we're doing"I blushed so hard, my cheeks hurt. Pushing Jonathan aside, I countered. "Even though, she still a teenager. She's already having a crush on Asher, who knows what next?"Jonathan groaned. "Please, stop reminding me of the fact that my teenage daughter has a crush"This was not the first time Jonathan expressed his displeasure about Alena's crush on Asher. "You really don't like it that much, huh?""She's just.."His voice trails off. "Growing too fast enough for me. Sometimes I feel like I can't keep up"We walked to my p

    CIARAImmediately those words spewed out of Ryan's mouth, I smacked him hard across the cheeks. "How dare you accuse me of murdering my child?" I wailed."And what gives you the right to call it 'our child'?. You were a shitty husband and would have been a shitty father"Ryan threw his fist at my face but froze mid-air. "Don't say that like you know me, Ciara. I've changed"I glanced at his fist that was inches away from my face. "What? Do you want to hit me?" I scoffed. "Go ahead and do it, then. Just remember that I can destroy your company if I want"Dropping his fist to the ground, Ryan takes in deep breath. "Was it a boy or a girl?""I don't know"Ryan must have thought I was lying to him as he let out a frustrated sigh. "God, Ciara. I'm not asking much from you. Just let me know if it was a boy or a girl""And I'm telling you; I. Don't. Know!" I huffed. "I wanted the baby's gender to be a surprise to me until it was born. It never crossed my mind that I would lose it"Turning as

    Ciara The next morning, I'd informed Jonathan and Alena about the early morning press conference I had to do to correct the mistakes I've made. "Do you want me to come with you?" Jonathan inquired. "No, I'll be fine"Walking towards me, Alena holds my hands. "Let us know once you're done, okay?"Patting her hair, I respond. "Will do" Turning to face Jonathan, I ask. "Can you walk me out front?""Sure, let's go"Outside the house entrance, I speak up. "I called you aside because I wanted to tell you something""I could tell that something wass disturbing you. So, what is it?""I intend to meet up with Ryan after the press conference" I admit. "He has the right to know about his child existence, I think""I understand. Do you want to meet him alone?""As much as I would love you to be there, I've got this""If you say so" He leans into me, placing a soft kiss on my lips. "Call me if you need me""I will. Bye, now""Bye"When I'd gotten to the company, reporters already swarmed the ar

    CiaraDamn. How do I explain this to Alena now?. "I asked your dad if I could move in with you guys and he said yes" I say on the spot. "He'd offered me his clothes so I could get comfortable"Alena seemed to buy it. "Does that mean you'd room with me?""She would be rooming with me, sweetie" Jonathan says, walking into the living room and interrupting our conversation. "Why don't you go get changed and rest up? Ciara and I want to watch a movie but you're free to join us if you want to""Great!" Alena exclaims. "I'll go get popcorn. Don't start it without me"My gaze trail from Alena who hopped Joyfully out of the living room to Jonathan. "I thought you wanted it to be a movie date"Jonathan sighed, plunging down beside me to the couch. "She seemed so excited to spend some time with you. What could I do?"Reaching out for my hands, Jonathan takes it in his. "I'm glad you let it out of your system today"Shit, he heard me cry earlier. "You heard?""Of course, I did. You don't have to

    CiaraAfter our intimate moment together, I'd drifted off to sleep. When I'd woken up, Jonathan wasn't by my side on the bed. Slipping on one of his shirts, I moved out of the bedroom calling out for him. "Jonathan?""I'm in here!" His faint and distant voice responds. It seemed to be coming from the kitchen.On getting to the kitchen, I find Jonathan with an apron around him as he dished out a variety of food on a food tray. He looked completely breathtaking in the kitchen. "You're working hard, sir" I teased. He looked up at me with a broad smile plastered across his face. "I figured you'd be hungry after what we just did""Well, you figured correctly""Go sit in the dining. I'll bring your food to you""Alright" I was just about to turn round and head towards the dining when he called me back. "Oh and one more thing, Ciara""What is it?""You look drop-dead gorgeous in my shirt"Despite myself, I blushed. "I've heard I looked better without any""Stop it right there if you don'
