Trouble in paradise
Steve yawned, stretching out of bed. It was already afternoon. He partied the whole night till morning. Dam it, he cursed as Aziza’s phone went on voicemail for the fifth time. He had planned to call her last night but with all the excitement it completely slipped off his mind. Taking a quick shower and getting dressed he left the bedroom and found Angela and Lione in the kitchen.
Lione looked at his older brother mischievously. You are really getting old bro, few drinks and you wake up this late!
He chuckled. You might be right, I just slept for three hours but I feel like crap. Maybe it’s time to hang the towel and settle down.
You might want to handle your admirers better if you are serious about settling down, Angela suggested giving him coffee.

She made up her mind during the run to trust Steve until he gave her a reason not to. Steve got off the car and watched her run towards him, a strange feeling that was becoming familiar whenever he was around her started rising within him.

Aziza stood up and washed her face. She had spent most of the morning kneeling in front of the toilet, throwing up again. His words playing in her head “Our baby will never be a sin no matter when or where she or he is born”. She had let her gut down, trusted him too much and neglected contraception because he was against it. She had not seen him since the day they broke up but thinking about him always lead to uncontrollable sobbing. Her psychologist had advised that she takes some time off and focus on herself. She made a call to Lewis, informing him that she will be taking some time off. Lewis agreed knowing he had no choice on the matter.

They paid Paul, the street fighter from downtown to pretend to be her violent ex to bring them together. The plan was to keep Steve and Aziza apart to give Natasha and Jerome time to win them over.
