34.
Benson finally said it off his chest. He finally brought himself down to give a title to the feeling he that had been there brooding in his heart. He suddenly felt certainty wave over the cognizance of his infatuation. A lot of the things Luke said the previous day inspired the conclusion but Benson wouldn’t admit it. He was naturally that proud.“You can’t anybody though,” He growled at Luke. “Not even Sarah,” his brows creased and his jaw tightened. He jolted off his chair and leaned forward, spreading his fingers on the table. Luke leaned backward pulling and pushing his chair with him. “I swear if a word of this gets out somehow, I will throw you down from the room of this building,” he wiped his hand over his face and leaned off the table. “Why did I even say that to you?”“I don’t, man. Now I wish you didn’t,” Luke sighed. “It“I am not coming home tonight because I have an appointment tomorrow with a group of firms that are going to sign a merger and then as one company, they’d sign over half their shares to me,” Benson pocketed his hand and simpered. “Just in case you were wondering, it would take about sixteen hours from here to Melbourne, Australia. If I live by 2 pm this afternoon, I will get there by 7 am and then attend the meeting by 8 am and I would be back by midnight, so you have to stay with Julie until I am back.” Alita blinked as she took in the news. Before she could say anything, he continued, “Thanks, I will see you soon,” He walked out the door firmly holding a briefcase in one hand and pocketing the other. He was kicking a fitted tuxedo with peak lapels, rocking a diamond bow tie. Alita thought it a sexy, macho look but kept it to herself. As she watched him leave, she ignorantly bit her lips at him. She internally schooled herself when she realized herself. She had about two days alo
36.Alita was quite the metal head when she was a little girl. She took that from her dad. He was a very curious and adventurously daring man. He always wanted to do what everyone wouldn’t do just to prove that anybody could do what they wanted to do and also earn a name for himself after he does. He was both a car and motor cross racer. Alita worshipped him. He thought of her all she knew about cars and bikes. The parts, how to drive a car to win a race, and how to ride on the front lines.Mr. Martinez was a big shot in his time until he dies in a terrible accident in a league car race. It was this tragedy that made Alita fold into the calm and enduring woman she had grown into. She believed he was untouchable and couldn’t get hurt even though he sustained a lot of injuries. He always came back to the race track and continued to rule. When he died, she lost all courage and bravery to face life with her fist raised high as he thought her t
Benson reached Melbourne right about the time he expected he would. He went straight to the hotel that he had booked beforehand to take a shower and relax a little. After having a refreshing bath, he sat by the window taking in the view of the city. He phoned Alita to check up on her and Julie. “Hey, Alita,” he smiled. “Good morning, sir…” Alita said sounding nervous. “How are you and my little angel?” Benson rose from the chair he sat and walked closer to the side of the wall where it was all glass. He had chosen that room, particularly for the view and also because he was at the edge of the building where he was sure fewer people hung around. “Yes, we are okay,” Alita said. “Julie is asleep,” she added.“Right,” He nodded and pocketed his hand. “I miss you guys already,” he bit his lips as he glanced downward. He could see the roofs of other buildings around the hotel. Alita was quiet for a second before answering, saying, “Not that you were always around when you were here bu
38.“Don’t worry Julie,” Alita caressed Julie’s chin and she cackled. “Dad would be home soon,” She looked checked her phone for the time, and gazed down at Julie in her arms. “He should be flying home right about now,” she smiled and then took a glance at the room and returned her gaze to Julie. “I will be right back,” she said dropping Julie on the bed and frantically pushing her toys to play with as she ran to the bathroom to ease herself. She peed and ran back to Julie to find that she had fallen asleep. She smiled and sat by her, staring at the ceiling. Memories of her past that she had locked up emerged as her mind reproduced pictures of her horrible. Some of the bad things she did to help her stabilize after she left her mum to live on her own. She had spent the night in her head, revisiting her life from years ago. She had to dabble in drugs to get quick and easy money. That was where she learned how to drink and smoke and do everything that could make her high and get her
39.Benson was dumbfounded. A minute ago the girl didn’t look like she could hurt a fly until she stripped naked before him. He wasn’t going to succumb but the way she looked at him weakened him. He felt her eyes crawl his skin as. she consumed him with her stare. “How long is that? 8…9” She pursed her lips peering straight into her eyes. He was speechless.“I’m sorry if I make you uncomfortable but…I just can’t pass on that,” She put her legs down and walked up to him. She took his cock in her hand, trying to wrap her fingers around it but her small hand could not go around. She gasped. “This is enormous,” she giggled. It was all feeling like a dream to Benson. Maybe he was having that sleep he had yearned for earlier.Finally, he spoke, “You should get out of here now, I have a plane to catch,” he heaved feeling her tighten her grip on his cock. His heart raced. “Oh, I’d milk you in a jiffy. It wouldn’t take long,” she smirked. “I got me a ride to catch,” she peered lustfully a
40Alita screamed when she looked at Julie giving her usual beautifully innocent smile and noticed her front teeth. She was surprised she hadn’t noticed it earlier than that moment. Maybe she was nonchalant or Julie slept more than she was awake.Alita rushed to where Julie sat on the ground playing with her toys and opened her mouth to see if there were any more teeth than the two in front. “Oh my god, you are growing teeth already…” She brought out her phone and took a picture where she was beaming at the camera; Julie had no idea what was going on but just smiled.Alita wanted to dial Benson and give him the news but she thought against the idea as it was late and he was probably sleeping on the plane, tired from sitting down for hours. She held her phone to her chest and plastered a wide smile on her face. “My baby is growing,” she whined in excitement. She was overwhelmed by the simplicity of growth that Julie undergoes. “One minute you can’t sit on your own and the next you’re
Benson had just fallen asleep when he heard his phone beep. He looked at the screen and saw the interface that always came up whenever any of his cars moved unless he turned it off. He rolled his eyes and tightened his haw. He had warned Alita but she had done it again. She was driving the same car out of the garage. He was going to have to do something dire to punish her.He tapped a button the live video feed started playing. He saw her face and his breath hitched. She looked like she had cried. He wondered what had happened. He had never seen her cry. He was broken for her. He saw Julie in the back seat and smiled as he saw her smiling. She was just sitting there having no clue of what was going on. He checked the time and then swiped and tapped his way to the map on his phone to see where they were. He went back to the video feed and the sight broke him. She was sobbing into her hand as she drove.What could make her that sad and perturbed that she was crying from deep pain? The k
Alita’s heart gave a hard blow to her chest as she heard her mother moan. She rounded up her phone conversation with Benson and then leaned towards the bed. She watched her clueless about what to do. She had thought about a lot of things to say but as she twisted and turned on the bed, Alita went blank. All the words disappeared.“Mum,” she whispered. The later part of her articulation muffled into air. She cleared her throat and her mum turned toward her.Alita’s mother was shocked to see her there. Her eyes grew wider and her face contorted in confusion. “Are you really here or I am…” she looked around the room. Terror gripped her face and she slightly shuddered.“No, mum, I am here,” Alita moaned and reached for her mum’s hand and squeezed her hand. “I am here.”“How are you here?” her mother asked, perplexed that she was there, still looking unsure whether what she was experiencing was real or not.“The nurse called me when you were rushed here,” Alita sniffled.“What happened?” H
