Larissa almost spilled her drink on Reyna but she held it in as she heard her friend's sentence. "What do you mean by you finding your biological father? "she asked and dropped her cup of coffee on the table."I found my father Larissa, I still don't know where my mother is for now but I found my father at least "Reyna said"Your parents are always with you,did your hit your head somewhere because what do you mean by you found your father and you are still looking for your mother "she said"The people who raised me up aren't my parents Larissa, they are Alan's parents not mine "Reyna said"God you mean Alan isn't your brother too biologically, why am I just finding this out now Reyna? "Larissa asked her friend with a frown."I'm sorry Larissa, I can't justify my actions but I told you now so you know. Alan isn't my real brother and his parents aren't my parents, they just brought me up "she said"Wow, you gave me two huge pieces of news today, I find it so hard to think well, "Larissa
“I see you managed to get the number.” Reyna said to Lucas as she raised one of her brows and was holding in her laugh. “Yeah. I managed to get it, Now will you just let us continue our drive in peace?” Lucas answered trying to hide the fact that Reyna’s taunt was having an effect on him. “Oh, Sure, I will, my lips sealed.” Reyna said as she made a zipping noise with her mouth and gestured with her hands. “Thank You!” Lucas said looking over at Reyna and smiling. Reyna didn’t say a word, she went back to her phone and seemed to be doing something on it. Letting out a small laugh. “What’s so funny?” Lucas asked. “It’s this video, my goodness it’s so funny.” Reyna answered still laughing but not lifting her gaze from her phone. “We’re here.” Lucas announced. “Oh really.” Reyna said, locking her phone and lifting her gaze. “That was fast.” She added as she stepped out of the car. “Thanks for dropping me off, Lucas.” She said immediately she got off. “No problem.”
Niko got home late and his dad had called a family meeting already, Niko got home to meet his father, Nicholas, his grandmother, Step mom and James already seated at the table. “What’s going on?” Niko asked, unbuttoning his jacket and setting it down. “We need to talk to you, Niko.” Nicholas said. “Take a seat.” He added and Niko did as he was told. “We need to talk to you about our company.” His father started saying and Niko already knew where this was headed, he had jeopardized their chances of ever getting back up because the company was at the verge of going down the drain. “Well, what about the company?” He asked feigning ignorance. “How could you be so cruel?” Niko’s father asked getting Niko angry. “How could I be so cruel?” Niko asked trying his best not to raise his voice. “We needed you Niko and James tried to get you help, we needed to work with Nirvana to get back on our feet and you just made an order and he couldn’t, now the company is sinking, ho
3 “Oh, look who came around.” James said as he saw Niko walking back down the stairs, the rest of the family looked up to see him too. Niko’s father smiled at him thinking Niko had changed his mind and was ready to help them. “I came here to give s piece of my mind, no one is coming around.” Niko said. Seating down and trying to make himself as calm as possible. “I’m not sorry about not helping you, in fact I’m not sorry about treating you the way I did. You all neglected me, I needed you all but where were you when I wanted you the most? Where were you all when I could use just a little, a little bit of help, time, affection? No where. No fucking where!” Niko yelled banging on the table making his grandmother shake. “The property my own mother left for me was hoarded and only given back to me after I met your conditions. I was supposed to be handed those things without conditions but you selfish bastards didn’t hand it to me, making me live life like a miserable person.
Niko left the table to go with his grandfather, he knew he was dissatisfied with his outburst, but he won’t apologize if that was what his grandfather called him and wanted to see him for. “I’m here.” Niko said announcing his presence to his grandfather as they walked together. “Well, I need to talk to you about tomorrow’s case.” Nicholas said as they continued their walk. “I’m not dropping the lawsuit I filed against him if that’s what you want to talk about, the case is tomorrow, he needs to release my inheritance and I won’t just sit back and watch him selfishly try to cheat me and take over what is rightfully mine. He can be a bitter bitch for all I care but that is none of my business.” Niko explained standing his ground, he thought his grandfather was going to talk him into dropping the case he had against his son-in-law. “No. That’s not what I want to talk to you about.” Nicholas said and Niko’s mind calmed. “What is it then grandfather?” He asked as they both
“Hello.” Niko picked his call. “Hey.” Reyna said in a low voice and Niko immediately knew something was up. “What’s wrong?” He asked. “My Uncle wants me to meet him tomorrow.” Reyna said from over the phone. “Well that’s no reason to be moody.” Niko said smiling, trying to cheer Reyna up. “It really is. I don’t want to see him, but then, I also wanna go and see what he’s about.” Reyna explained and sighed. “Whatever you choose to do, do it but, DO NOT HESITATE to call me if you need me, I’ll be over there like a Superman.” Niko said and Reyna laughed. “Sure. I’ll talk to you later.” She said and hung up. Rolling on her bed, she starts thinking about what her uncle might possibly want from her, she knew he already know about her dating Niko the owner of the light Nirvana but she had no idea what he wants to see her about. “Only one way to find out. Wait till tomorrow and go see him.” She said to herself as she laid still and gave into the comforting hands of sleep. I
Reyna sighted Dylan a few feet away from her. She sighed and started walking in the opposite direction. It was quite safe to say things had gone pretty much south between them both since she had turned him down. Not that they stopped talking completely, but then, communication between them had reduced drastically. They barely even greeted each other, as it now seemed more of something done only when it was clearly inevitable. She had been walking for about three minutes when she felt a small light tap on her shoulder.She spun around in shock and her eyes narrowed in obvious confusion, when her eyes landed on the figure in front of her. "Dylan?" She mouthed in a tone that was a mix of surprise and curiosity. "Hi, Reyna." He said quietly. His hands were shove in the pocket of his Italian trousers. The air swept the smell of him into her nostrils. She breathed out softly in relief and looked up at him, awaiting him to say something. "I'm sorry I scared you." He apologized,
Reyna threw herself at Niko and hugged him so tight as the Judge declared his verdict and dismissed the court. "Congratulations, babe." Reyna said esctatically as they held each other."Congratulations to us, sweetheart." Niko corrected, pulling her even closer and planting a kiss right by the side of her ear. "I love you, Reyna." He muttered into her ear, biting it playfully. "I love you back, Niko. So much." She said, pecking his right cheek affectionately.They lost track of their environment and didn't know they had been holding each other for a long time, not until Joe approached them. Joe cleared his throat, smiling as they slowly disentangled."Congratulations, man." He hugged him, patting him on the back."Thanks, Joe. I wouldn't have been able to do all of this by myself if not for you and Lucas, by my side." " You're welcome." Joe replied.Just then, Lucas approached the trio with a wide smile. "Congratulations, big Niko." He said as they shook hands and drew in
