I was painstaking with the makeup tutorial I was watching following each step with so much enthusiasm.
The door creaked open and he walked in heading straight to the bed.
He slumped on it and took off his shirt afterwards.
"And what did the lawyer say?" I asked turning back to the laptop on the desk.
"You power thirst woman!...you don't even care about how weak I look. The car broke down somewhere secluded and I couldn't get someone to work on the car"
"So, you're saying you had to walk home?" I cut in.
"Exactly my complaints!" He rasped angrily and I rolled my eyes.
"You foolish fat man. You've been asking stupid questions on the reason am after the wealth...well now you see!!
"We are going broke. You lavished the little
• • • • • STELLA • • • • •I did suspect I was being moved by the hormones to sob over a less issue.Jeremy gaped blandly at me like I had lost it but I didn’t give a damn as more tears poured from my eyes.I cheated on my husband!The feeling was so hurtful that I had the urge to beat myself up.The tears had blinded my eyes and everything appeared blur. I wiped off the liquid and blinked rapidly as he walked to me.“You don’t need to cry Stella… it’s alright. I understand” He cooed making me lean on his chest.“It wasn’t intentional…” I mumbled and he cracked.“I know you didn’t mean for it to happen. I perfectly understand”.I wrapped my hands around him hugging him fully and he reciprocated. O
Three months later🔮🔮Author's pov😘The whole hospital was thrown upside down as pregnant Stella was strolled into the emergency room.The two couples were driving around town when suddenly, Stella’s water broke broke and Jeremy had no choice but to take her to the nearest hospital.The whole place was intense because the baby is wilful to come out to the world causing great pain to Stella.Just as Jeremy was led outside the emergency room, Jeffery arrived with Teresa and her husband trailing behind him.“Son! Are you okay?” Teresa asked with a crumpled look.“Geez mom! Stella’s the one in labor, no me” He chided agitatedly.“Where’s your phone dude? I’ve been doing all I can to reach you since morning” Jeffery grumbled immediately he got close to him.&nb
STELLA💜I felt exhausted and almost to the point of shedding tears as I leaned back in the moving limousine which was taking us home from a fun day at the amusement park.The car was heavily guarded by escorts whom accompanied us in their SUVs.I took my kids out – Joanne and Oscar. They love visiting the park on a Sunday evening after going to their grandma’s.Joanne’s three while Oscar is a year old.And thinking of Jeremy…He’s been traveling nonstop and that’s the reason I feel despondent and dejected right now.It’s like he no longer has time for me and I get the hunch that he’s tired of my body as well.Whenever he returns from his business trip, he gets too tired to do anything.It’s just been four years of marriage!!Where did I get it wrong???
• • • • STELLA • • • •The making out section got over quick since the kids started knocking at the door. I felt like screaming at them to leave and come back never. Jeremy has been away for too long and now that he's back and I want to have him so bad, they'd interrupt us.It's very agitating. The kids kept running around the room and jumping on the bed as well.Jeremy didn't mind as he carried Oscar into his arms."Don't they have school, today?" He asked me amidst all the noise Joanne was making..I shook my head positively and he winked at me."Once they live, I'll attend to you, I promise sweetheart" He assured and I rolled my eyes at him.I don't believe him one bit...Him and his promise and fail schemes.He'll sure arouse me but won't always keep to it.And so we l
• • • • • STELLA • • • • •I slowly touched the tattoo and felt thickness of the black ink on his skin. Why would Jeremy have my name tattooed on his back??I was still dazed with the recent discovery when he turned around again and was holding onto the sponge. He looked completely clueless."Well...go ahead and explain why there's a tattoo at your back, Jeremy" I said folding my hands."What? What tattoo??" He queried and tried feeling it and I rolled my eyes.He's unbelievable.How could he still pretend when I've caught him red handed???"Are you trying to tell me that you don't know there's a tattoo on your back?" I asked making him turn around again.He nodded fervently."You're scaring me, Stella. I like tattoos but I never really got one cause of grandpa" He said shrugging his shoulders.
STELLA'S POV**"Your mom called me earlier." I said as I sip from my wine."Really? What did she say the problem is?" He asked curiously."Well,she wants the kids to come spend some days at her place." I replied despondently."So,what did you tell her,are you okay with it?" He asked taking his eyes away from me."Sincerely speaking, I'm not okay with it, considering what she did in the past,I feel she wants to use them to get back at me. Please don't take offense." I said remembering for a moment that it is his mother we are talking about."I totally understand you,it is normal for you to feel that way,I would do more than that if it were to be me." He said.
JEFFREY'S POV**I got out of my hotel room after resting, it's a long journey getting to this place.I brought out my phone and placed a call across to Stella and she picked up almost immediately."Were you expecting my call?" I asked with a teasing smile."Yes,I was,so how is it going?" She asked desperately.I'm going to teach whoever this person is a lesson for disturbing my dear Stella. I thought."I'm at the hotel he lodged in." I said."What are you going to do there?" She asked."You never seize to amaze me Stella. Since everything started here, I'm just going to check there
NINA'S POV**"I'm sorry ma'am,I just didn't reply cause I know I will still come to you, and moreover I don't want to wake your baby up,he is a handful." I said with a smile only to be shut up with a brain setting slap which caught me unawares."You are very stupid young lady, next time I call you,you open your smelly mouth and reply me." She yelled but I remained quiet."And can't you talk?" She asked another slap followed suit."Yes ma'am,I'm sorry it won't repeat itself ever again." I said trying to hold back my tears."Good." She said taking her gaze back to her phone."You called me earlier ma'am." I said when she kept quiet for too long and I have to finish up my chores.
