The Next DayUnlike every other Tuesday, Jayda reluctantly stood up from her bed and prepared for work. She spent the whole of yesterday crying and sulking so she needed to catch up on so many work-related things that she didn't do yesterday.She cleaned up, changed into a simple but elegant dress, covered her puffy eyes with some makeup and proceeded to the kitchen to make herself a toast. She had no appetite but forced herself to eat half of it and washed it down with some orange juice. She took her vitamins and then left for work.Jayda stepped into her office building with a normal face when in all honesty, she was dying inside. She politely replied to the greetings of clients and staff and then made her way to her office to bury herself with work.Unlike the previous days where Jayda would delegate her work to interns, she chose not to see any of them today and instead do everything that needed to be done on her own. Maybe she did that intentionally, not to cross paths with Olivia
Sebastian was seated on his dining table, absentmindedly playing with his dinner. The last time he ate was last night when Caleb ordered him takeout and he only ate a little of what he ordered. He had no appetite; instead, he was worried about Jayda. He really wanted to know how she was doing, if she had had dinner and all of that.Resisting to dial her number or send her a text message throughout the day was one of the hardest things he has ever had to do. He wanted to hear her voice and apologize again.Seb sighed and placed down his cutlery. He pushed the food away and buried his face in his hands. To top it all, Lilian and Jayda were not on good terms and he couldn't help but think it was his fault.Never had Sebastian felt such a heavy pain in his heart. He had no strength and inspiration to keep going or even go back to work-related matters. It has only been a little over 24 hours that everything happened but it felt like a thousand years already. He wondered how much he was goin
It was second to none that Jayda Wright was an exceptionally brilliant Lawyer. Opposing counsel prefers to settle with Jayda and whoever she was representing so it would be a win-win situation for all because they were aware Jayda hardly loses a case. She gives her all to every client she works for and that has actually been a plus to her successful career.Jayda mostly works for high-class clients, particularly, Close clients of the firm and not everyone could afford to pay for her services.So every two months, She takes up three pro bono cases, sometimes more than three, depending on how busy her schedule was. She does that to help the less privileged who wanted Justice and couldn't afford a lawyer. Jay has been doing that for four years now.That brings us to the courtroom. Jayda Wright was representing a 36-year-old single mother of four children to help her get the justice she deserved.Jayda heaved a sigh, gracefully rose to her feet, made her way to the front of the judge and g
Before they proceeded to the mall, Seb and Jayda made a stop at the restaurant to have lunch. Then they went maternity clothes shopping. (work, party, casual and nightwear.)Jayda bought all the outfits Sebastian said he loved. She also bought some sexy lingerie when he wasn't looking.The maternity store led to the baby store. They agreed they were just going to take a look at everything but they failed woefully. They saw some unisex baby items that they liked; ranging from clothes, shoes, toys and other baby supplies. Jayda also bought a few items for three-year-old Aaron.Thankfully, they came in their own cars so they had no struggle trying to fit all that they bought in one car.As soon as they offloaded everything they bought on Jayda's sofa, she crashed on a free couch and Sebastian joined her."I think this is the first time I had fun shopping," Jayda confessed. "What about you?" She asked Seb."Honestly, I had fun too. I enjoyed watching you model for me and also shopping for
"Daddy, is Jayda no longer coming to see me?" Aaron asked for the 6th time.Sebastian smiled, "She's on her way, buddy. She should be here any time from now." He poured some water into Aaron's sippy cup and handed it to him."Thank you," Aaron said as he collected the cup from his father.Sebastian connected his hands with Aaron's tiny ones then they made their way back to the living room to go continue watching Aaron's favourite cartoon.Seb left work a little bit early today for Katie's place to pick Aaron for the weekend. From the moment they got settled in his car, he has been asking about Jayda.Unfortunately, Jayda had to stay back at work because she had an impromptu meeting with important members of the firm.A few minutes later, the doorbell rang. "Jayda is here?" Aaron asked as he rose to his feet excitedly.Sebastian chuckled, "I guess so." He proceeded to the door with Aaron behind him."Heyy!" Jayda smiled at the love of her life as soon as he opened the door for her. She
When it was almost time, Sebastian paused the work he was doing, reached for his car keys, then exited his office.After a nineteen minutes drive, he got to his soon to be in-laws home.Seb rubbed his palms together, let out a sigh and then went ahead to press the doorbell.Immediately, a woman opened the door. From the resemblance, Seb could tell she was Jayda's mom."Good day, Mrs Wright." Seb greeted nervously.Grace smiled. She was happy to finally come face to face with the love of her daughter's life. "You can call me Grace and it's nice to meet you, Sebastian." She ignored his handshake and pulled him into a hug instead. That seemed to calm Sebastian down a little."Come in." She ushered him into her home, closing the door behind him.Grace led Sebastian to the second living room downstairs where David, her husband was. He was comfortably seated, going through a newspaper."Honey, Sebastian is here." She announced, getting his attention before taking a seat beside him."Good aft
Just as she had anticipated, Jayda made sure she filled her fridge with Ice cream and chocolates so she would have something to personally celebrate her birthday with.The last thing she remembered before she fell asleep was that the next day was Saturday, her birthday and she was going to sleep to her satisfaction and probably wake up at noon.Unfortunately, someone decided to spoil that plan by showering kisses all over her face, disturbing her sleep."Lily, I told you not to come over until 5 in the evening. Why are you here this early?" Jayda mumbled tiredly, not opening her eyes.Lily did not reply and neither did the person showering kisses on her face stop. Jayda groaned, burying her face deeper into the pillow.She heard a familiar chuckle, followed by a very familiar voice whispering in her ear. "Happy Birthday, my love."Jayda's eyes flung open. She smiled as she came face to face with Sebastian.Seb reached for her hands and kissed it. "I wish you long life and prosperity, g
Sebastian took Jayda to an Art Gallery owned by Seb's high school friend, after that they made their way to the movies; Sebby booked a whole theatre for himself and Jayda with VIP treatment and their final stop was at the park not far from Jayda's apartment. They bought Ice Cream, sat on a bench to enjoy it while making conversations and then they took a stroll around the park before they headed back to Jayda's apartment to prepare for her birthday dinner.Sebastian took a shower and got ready in the guest room while Jayda got ready in her room.When he was done, he proceeded to Jayda's room. She had already worn her outfit. He saw her sitting on the bed, about to put on her heels."Let me help you." Sebastian offered even though she could very much do that herself. He slid in the left and right heels on both feet and then helped her stand up.Sebastian tried to hold back tears as he took all of Jayda in. He couldn't believe how lucky he was to tame such an amazing human being. The dre
