I sat on the bed occupied with reading an article in my phone. Jeremy was getting dressed and I really wanted him to say something - anything! • •
I've been keeping up with the silence treatment for hours now and he's almost going crazy. • •
I winced as i felt a twinge around my head. Sending my hands to my forehead, I noticed he was staring at me and those strange feelings returned. • •
He should say something - anything! • •
I rubbed my temple for a while before bringing down my hand. I looked keenly into my cellphone and soon I felt the moves of him climbing on the bed. • •
He dropped his head on my thighs staring up at me. • •
I held a frown as I looked away from him.• •
He snatched the phone off my hand and threw it at the far en
• • • • • • • STELLA • • • • • • •Sasha and Zac cooked again and this time, they weren't so cheesy about each other again. They stood separately and working on the minced meat for the spaghetti we were gonna cook.It got me thinking about what could have started a fire between them? They were in good terms just now. Anyways, like they say. This life is not a bed of roses and nothing 'Sweet' ever lasts."Sasha, can you pass me the vegetables, let me chop them. I really want to help" I asked and she stared at reluctantly."Yeah, right. Like, you don't know Jeremy is the one that asked us to cook! While you drag your butts on a chair watching us" She shot back angrily and I went numb."I had no idea, I just wanted to help... That's all" I stated looking around the full table."Dang it! I forgot my wallet at the grocery store" Zac chipped in feeling his back pockets with his hands.I pitied
• • • • • • • STELLA • • • • • • I was finally relieved when I heard the sound of a car driving in. He’s home! I jumped off the bed and to my dismay, I ran downstairs inorder to embrace him. I met him on the couch operating his phone. He lifted his eyelids at me before dropping them back to the device in his hand. I walked to him swaying my hips around. He noticed my presence and looked up again – his eyes boring into mine. “You look different, Did you make out with that woman?” I asked with a sardonic smirk appearing on my lips. He nodded abruptly and pulled me to sit on his thighs. I gasped a little and adjusted so I don't fall off. “Yeah… She’s so good and her s3x styles are priceless…” He concurred with my claims and to be honest – I got jealous at that moment. I'm super crazy. I was the one that came up with this in the first place and now I've gotten a posit
• • • • • • • JEFFREY • • • • • •I was in the course of reading a book when a tender knock came on the door and I let it come once again before getting out of the bed and going to open it.I unlocked the door and twisted the knob, easing the door open. Nina was standing right outside and in her hands was, two glasses and a bottle of wine. She wore a big smile as she stepped into the room."I'm really sorry to disturb you" She apologized huskily and I smiled shutting the door."No, you aren't disturbing. I could use some company. Also, you weren't home when I came home. You went somewhere?" I asked going to join her on the bed.She sighed and nodded slowly."My mother wanted to see me and find out how I'm holding up... At least she still cares" She whispered her response and luckily, I could hear her."That's good." I remarked short of w
• • • • • • • STELLA • • • • • •"What?...How did that happen?? Was he sick?" I asked in dismay."No... He's a very strong and gallant man. Not even a heart attack can kill the n*gga..." He paused and ruffled his hair ruefully.He stood up and took a deep sigh."I'm going there right now" He said wryly and I found myself standing up from the couch."Do I need to change?" I asked and he shot me a stare."You don't have to come with me babe. The last thing I would do right now is to stress you and the baby" He retorted gently and I blushed.I know I'm persistent on going but the tone of his voice was very sweet and I couldn't stop myself from smiling."Please, babe. I want to come with you".His eyes twinkled briefly and he sighed."Alrig
• • • • • STELLA • • • • •I scoffed and folded my hands together."So what?" I mumbled.I can't believe after all this months, the time has finally come to know if I'd be loosing Jeremy for real.He's definitely going to divorce me.His grandfather was the only one stopping us from pulling apart but now he's dead...meaning our marriage is on a shaky foundation.Oh Jeremy...Why did I fall so deeply in love with you that am so scared to loose you? When and how did this happen??I heard his footsteps drawing towards me and I looked at him. He took my hands and pulled me up."What are you thinking about, huh?" He asked distractedly tucking my hair strands behind my ears."You're going there now, right?" I asked pouting all of a sudden.He nodded an
• • • • • • STELLA • • • • • • •"The baby's not mine Stella and neither is it Jeffrey's. Why the fu-k would you pack your things without learning the truth, huh?" He rasped angrily.I sniffed and took my eyes to the floor. Tears had already gathered up in my eyes and they trickled down slowly.The child is not Jeffrey's?And it's not Jeremy's as well???I get to keep my husband..??That Nina is really a whore.She wanted to take him from me!!"God! Enough with the tears babe. I'm sorry" He pleaded stooping to a crouch before me."We were still going to pack anyway..we're moving to our new home next week... huh?" He cooed and kissed my hair."We're moving??" I asked stupefied."Yeah...To the new mansion. They're almost done with
• • • • • • STELLA • • • • •I rushed down the long fleat of stairs clutching onto a box of jewels.The maids stood by the side staring at me.I sighed and stopped moving with haste as I saw Jeremy. He was on a phone call staring at me.I chuckled nervously as I stood before him.He brought down his phone from his ear and glanced at me wish so much scrutiny."Did you run all the way down from our bedroom?" He queried and I shook my head negatively."Babe... it isn't as hard as it looks" I replied like a five years old.He scoffed and glared at me."What about the baby in your womb? Did you suddenly forget that there's a helpless living being in there?" He asked coldly and I made a grimace."The baby is fine. We have a strong kid, don't you know
I kept wandering around the really spacious hotel in search of Jeremy.I kept seeing folks and their beautiful French language filled my ears.*Je suis très faim**Quelle une belle enceinte le femme!**Je dit parle!!*I sighed and stood under a shade using my hand to obstruct the bright sunset from reflecting on me.I think I'm going to stroll back to the suite and wait for him.I looked around again and it became clear to me - I'm so lost!Geez.How did I get this far? And leaving the suite in just my robe?
