Baked With Love - By KC MMUOE

Chapter 1  Hugo  I am a performer. It sounds weird to say because , I cannot see myself doing anything either than what I'm doing right now, and it feels utterly good to be where I'm supposed to be .  The pitch is my stage ; the Stadium is my theatre, and my audience are the countless supporters I have in the stadium stands and online. I am a footballer and pretty damn good one at that .I have everything I could ever want and that includes , the cars, endorsements, the house , a girl who loves me and dare I say I am loving the good life . Today was a huge day for me and I couldn't be mhore excited . The team I captained was taking on our arch nemesis in the football league and this was a very important match for me because my agent had told me earlier on that ; there were going to be big sponsor's and scouts at the game . One of the scouts had an eye on me, and he had been tracking my career f

Chapter 3 HugoThere are days when I feel like I have made the wrong  decisions when it comes to love. Seeing the way Lisa reacted when , all I wanted was to have a moment alone without the whole world looking at us was a clear indication that I am a foolish man who needs to rethink his decisions.As soon as I arrived at the hotel I ended up in the gym running and training .   I thought about a lot of things about; how much I missed Chloe and how our lives would have been if I had stuck it out with her and admitted my wrong doings. The fact was that I cheated on her with Lisa and left her for Lisa . Chloe was the love of my life and part of me still feels like  crap for leaving her the way I did . I could have already had kids with her and a stable family and work life. I miss how she would always smile at me when I was deep in thoughts and tell me ; everything will be alright ,I just need to believe that I am the best at what I

Chapter 5  Five days laterHugo There are moments when your life flashes before your eyes and it's sad to say; usually when tragedy is about to strike , or has happened that's when some of us start to count our blessings. I can hear the machine beeping , and that's an indication that I am alive . I know that all of my medical bills will be taken care of by the club I am sure of that. My whole body is in excruciating pain ; I don't know what time , or day is it. All I know is that I am alive and I pray to God that Alex is alive too and we are sharing a hospital room together. He's been my one true friend and what happened to us was unfortunate but I really need him to live .I love sharing a lot of stuff with Alex . We have been roommate's when we traveled and we have also been best friends from when I started to join the academy .  He accepted me for who I was and

Chapter 7  Hugo I like Erica .I don't think I like her ... I like her . My mother likes her and by the looks of things ; she is the most affable person I've come across. As for that woman I call a girlfriend I am going to deal with her personally .  I saw the look of panic set on her face and I could only imagine what she was feeling. I've heard her come in for the past 5 days , and she has been kind enough to ask Matthew how I was doing and if I she should call anyone . I didn't know she knew my mother . Even though I was hurting at the fact that Chloe had passed on I was surprised to find out that I was a father to a five year old boy. As far as I knew , my face was scarred really badly and I needed surgery , which was going to cost more than my hospital bills . I knew I had more than enough , but since I had a precious gift to take care of. Erica and my mother were asked to leave the roo

Chapter 9 Hugo I have bad taste in women period. The only time I think I had good taste was when I was  with Chloe ; and call it a coincidence if you may , but there is something about Erica that feels  right in a  fated kind  way.  She’s not like Lisa and she has a calming effect on me.  On the day we almost lost Alex Lisa came  to visit me and when I had questioned her as to why didn’t she come and visit me  , she used work as an excuse. When I cheated on Chloe I was not in love with Lisa.  I was still in love with Chloe. I was drunk when the cheating happened and she saw an opportunity to capitalize on my state and manipulate me in  the worst of ways. That included cutting contact between me and my mother. As a result I didn’t know that Chloe had died and she had a baby boy … our baby boy Michael .
