LOGINLyra “Wow, wake me up right now! Is that our fucking boss?” The lady beside me whispered to me and that was when it finally dawned on me too.“I really don’t know, I’m new here too.” I retorted and she didn’t waste time before she turned to the other person. I just sat there and watched as he was introduced to us. I finally understood why he offered to pay me in the morning. Of course, he has so much money to throw around.The presentation went well but not for our team. We made some mistakes that were glaring and I just couldn’t sit idle and watch us lose. I signaled our disappointment ran leader and she gave me the chance to take over. I tried to salvage the situation with the little reseources we got prior. It worked fine and we were even chosen for the project. It was really surprising and I wasn’t expecting it too. We already messed up and was only hoping we wouldn’t be scolded. “You did this, Lyra, and I’m proud of you. It’s not easy to get the boss’ approval but you did it
Lyra“I got the job, dad!” I screamed over the phone as I made my way out of the building. “I’m not surprised, I knew you would. I’d been expecting your call.” He let out and I blushed hard. “Congratulations, sweetheart. We’ve got to celebrate this.” He added and I nodded with a smile.“Of course, I’ll make something good for dinner tonight, I’m already on my way home now.” I said excitedly.“I would have preferred we go out though, but if that’s what you want, then it’s okay. See you soon, sweetheart.” He chimed in and I hung up. I got a ride home and then jumped right into bed once I was in the room. I didn’t even know the day had gone by that fast until I heard my dad’s voice calling me.I opened my eyes and he was standing beside the bed. I looked out the window and saw it was dark outside.“Oh my goodness, how many hours have I been sleeping? I haven’t even cooked. I just wanted to rest for a bit but it’s now late.” I muttered as I slowly got out of bed.“It’s okay, I’ve actua
Lyra“I still don’t understand why you don’t want to work at the company. You’re going to do well there, everything is falling into place now.” My dad let out as we had breakfast. “And I still don’t understand why you’ve chosen not to accept my decision. I know the company is gradually coming up and doing well, and I’m really happy about that. But I already told you, I want to do this myself. I’ve always depended on your name and money all my life, now it’s time for me to also grow and make a name for myself.” I let out while he looked at me and smiled. “I’m so proud of you, sweetheart. I’ve watched you grow over the years and I’m always happy you’re mine. Your mom would be proud of you, you got her heart and tenacity. And I know your daughter will also get yours.” He replied and I smiled too. I gently caressed my belly under the table and I felt excited as I did. I could still remember when I eventually opened up to my dad about the baby, he looked at me like I was crazy, he almos
June “Yeah, why?” Mark asked over the phone.“Just answer me, are you still there?” I asked impatiently. “I’m just on my way out, that’s why I’m asking.” He replied and I quickly jumped out of bed. “No, don’t leave, I’m coming over now. I will explain everything when I’m there.” I said and then hung up.I grabbed my car keys and made my way out of the room. I ran into my mom at the corner and she had questions but I wasn’t going to let her delay me.“Where are you going this late at night?” She asked but I didn’t stop. I just gestured at her that I’d soon be back and then went my way. I got in the car and zoomed off to the bar. I hurried upstairs, pushed the door opened and there he was, all dressed up and on the couch. He stood up when I barged in and I could see he had questions but I didn’t have the time for all that. “Put off your clothes!” I ordered as I shut the door. By the time I turned, he was naked and I nodded. “Good!” I said and then threw up my dress too. I ran t
JuneI was affected by his response but I shook off the feeling. I don’t have to be offended that he wants the same thing that I do. We will both go our separate ways when we’ve had enough. I’m just going to make sure I leave first. I’m not giving any man the satisfaction of dumping me.That’s never happening…By the time I pulled up at home, I was already tired and I was going straight to bed. I’ve not had dinner but I wasn’t hungry. Mark had fed me to stupor. I hadn’t taken more than two steps on the stairs when I heard my dad’s voice behind me. “Dad?” I let out as I turned to see him in his favorite corner.“Please come, I’ve got some news for you.” He said and I went to him. He gestured me to sit and I took the sofa across him. “What is it, dad? I hope everything is okay?” I let out and he nodded. “Of course, sweetheart. It’s good news actually, you’re getting married.” He blurted while I almost chocked on my own breath.“I’m getting married? To whom?” I exclaimed while he sta
June“So do feel better now?” I asked while Zane stared in my eyes and smiled..“Your presence makes all the difference,” he chimed in but I didn’t smile. I just nodded and acted like I was happy he said that. “I know it’s quite early but don’t you think you consider giving love another chance. It will help you move on and heal completely. You’re probably going to dismiss it but deep down, you know I’m saying the truth.” I retorted and he sighed.“You’re right, infact, you’re aware it’s my style. I don’t stay down in cases like this, once one relationship ends, I immediately move to the next one. But that’s not going to work this time, I’m too broken. I’m thankful to you and Jeff though, you guys are really trying to help me stay sane. That’s okay for me, I don’t need a woman in my life, at least not now.” He replied and I felt my chest tighten but I didn’t let it get to me. I’m just going to stick to my plans, he can say that all he want but I’m going to get him soon.“If that’s wh
Lyra “Good morning,” I let out as I walked into the dining room.Rosemary turned around immediately and upon seeing me, she rushed over and pulled me into a tight hug. When she finally released me, she was beaming with smiles. Henry was also sitting there at the table with a soft smile on his fac
LyraI stared at my reflection in the dressing mirror, and I smiled back at the woman looking back. That has been the only thing I’ve been doing since morning anyway and I still can’t seem to get enough of my own face. I guess it’s the pregnancy hormones kicking in or the hot naked body of the sill
Zane“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!” I kept screaming and slamming hard at the steering wheel. I just couldn’t believe how everything changed in a second. I left the office in high spirit, hoping to come home, eat food and sleep well but then, that silly ass had to ruin the whole thing for me.I mean who in e
LyraThe ride home was a really quiet one. No one said a word and I just looked out the window the whole time. I didn’t know what to do or expect at this point but one thing was sure, they’d demand for answers. Even if Rose doesn’t, Henry would want to know how I got pregnant when in the space of b
