Aletta had barely been able to sleep, she found herself waking up at intervals to check if it was time to get to work. She noticed that her mom had not come home in two days now. Knowing her mom she could be somewhere having the time of her life so two days was not enough reason to get agitated. She jumped out of bed as soon as her alarm went off and was getting ready to get to work when her phone began to ring off the hook. The only reason she was allowed to get calls like that was if there was an issue at work.When the name Ms. Millie flashed across her screen she held her breath and put the phone to her ears. She was in charge of the warehouse and usually, a call from her always meant something had horn wrong. She always used text messages for updates and good news but a call meant urgency and bad news. "Hello Ms Millie I haven't heard from you for a while" Aletta said as soon as the line connected."Which must have been good news for you" Millie said in her rich deep voice.Al

By the time they were done with the work of the day and rectifying the issues, they were sure that everyone who had gone to work for the day was already well-rested at home and even preparing for bed."You did great today," Millie said as they walked out.Millie and Joshua walked side by side while Aletta walked behind them. She still tried to keep her professional character in place even though everyone knew about her relationship with her boss."And you too" Joshua complimented. Millie was taken aback because even though Joshua had always been a gentleman he had never for once dished out compliments to his staff."I am glad to have you" he said and Millie stopped in her tracks threw him a look of disbelief and shook her head."You are?" she asked and he nodded."I mean we would have had a big issue with our investors next week if you had not checked this out for us" Joshua said."Well, I am getting paid a big one so I must work my pay" she said and Joshua shook his head."I am still

Aletta had wanted to keep her eyes open but her attraction to rest a bit in a moving car overshadowed her and the next thing she knew was someone shaking her gently."We are here Aletta" Joshua said and she blinked sitting up right."We are?" she asked drawing herself together. She looked ahead of her to see that the driver was nowhere in sight and they were still in the car.From the car she watched the penthouse, there was no sign of life and the lights were not switched on but she could see the grace exuding from the place. She gasped in awe as her eyes tried to look at the entire place at once but failed."Why are we here?" she asked him and she pressed his forehead with the tip of his finger."I thought you had something to tell me today, something urgent and that was good news, I figured that since only places that delivered food were open at this time we could come here and talk and then have something delivered to us for dinner" he said.His suggestion made sense and she had n

"When would our food be here?" Aletta asked trying to stall. She knew she was going to tell him at the end of the day but she wanted to try her best to stall for as long as possible.Joshua took up his phone and tapped away before looking up at her. "They should be arriving in five minutes or less" he said and she nodded."Let's take a tour of the house and talk over the food" she said pushing herself out of the chair they had made themselves comfortable. "Okay," he said as he shrugged. There was nothing else to do after all. He could not give her a tour because he did not know the place as well as the owner should know.He had been here once, this time making it the second time he visited the place. All he knew was that his family had a house on the outskirts of Grace Street. "Aren't you going to give me a tour?" she asked and he shook his head."I don't know where anything goes," he said. Aletta thought it was a shame that the fully furnished house housed no one."Why did you brin

"Can we have something to drink while we speak?" Aletta asked and Joshua shrugged. "Like what do you fancy?" he asked walking to the refrigerator that was in the same space as they were. After the meal, they cleaned up and were currently standing in the kitchen. Joshua opened the door to the refrigerator and stood there with the scanty shelves that had only water bottles on them. "Well water?" he asked stretching the bottle he took from the shelf to her."This can do" She took the bottle he opened from him and put it in her mouth. The silence was deafening and Joshua was eager to know what was going on but did not want to seem forward. "You asked me yesterday about two things" Aletta began and Joshua inched closer to her waiting to hear her response. "Yeah," he muttered and she nodded. "Before I answer that I want to tell you something important" she said retrieving the envelope enclosing the letter from her bag. She stretched the envelope to him and he took it."What's in here?

She had wanted him to understand her choice and respect it but now that he understood the situation so well and was not showing any signs of having a hard time letting her go it somehow hurt her pride. "What do you mean?" He asked pulling away from her and holding her shoulders."I am leaving as your assistant but it does not seem to bug you," she said with a pout. She felt the need to drag out the situation and sulk but she knew she might be the one in the end to reach out to him and she did not have the energy for all that yet. "Why would it not bug me? I would be so helpless without you, who else can do such a great job like you?" he asked closing his eyes."But you seemed so relaxed about the news," she said as her voice trailed off till it was almost silent."I mean you are doing your own thing, something you have always wanted. I am so happy for you and I don't want to tell my feelings to get in the way of what you want" he said. She understood him immediately, he was trying

A stream of light hit Joshua's eyes as she tumbled in bed. His body hit something and the memories of yesterday came back rushing to him. He smiled as she pushed his hand underneath Aletta's head and pulled her close to him."Good morning" she murmured in his arms and he let out a small chuckle."Good morning" he whispered back to her and planted a kiss on her forehead. "We would be late for work" he whispered when she held onto him tightly."Just a minute more" she whispered back and he held her tightly."It feels good," he said in her ears and she nodded before replying. "It does feel good," By the time they struggled out of bed, they knew they were definitely late for work so they had to rush out of the house and go get clothes to change."Since we would be living here what do you say about designing it to your taste?" Joshua suggested as he drove her to her house."Me?" "Yes, you," he said and she shook her head."Oh no, I would not trust me with that task if I were you" she sai

Aletta looked up to see Leslie standing at her table. She had not seen the woman outside of situations where she had to meet the Delgado family so seeing here was a bit out of place for her."I am here to see Joshua, he is in right?" Leslie said and walked into the office without sparing her a glance. She pushed the door open without a knock and Aletta tried to get a glimpse of Joshua's face to see his reaction to the woman."Joshua," she said as the door closed shut."Aunty Leslie" Joshua said standing up and coming to her. "When was the last time I saw your face? It seems like you are avoiding me" she said taking her seat on the couch."I am so sorry I have been so busy with work" Joshua said trying to make an excuse for himself."I understand," she said dismissively."What brings you here?" Joshua asked. She had never been to his office before so she must have a reason to be there with him."Aren't you going to offer me something to drink?" She asked and he shook his head. "Of co
