Angelo
The hardest decision I've ever had to make was to choose between the woman I love and my family. I'm happy to have my mother back; but at what cost?
Can't I just have both and be happy. Cleo was right about my mother . I didn't want to believe it at first but I saw it with my two eyes. Cleo took the baby bag and Pio with her because he started crying and my mother not only scared him but Cleo too. As soon as she stepped out I looked at my mother impassively.
"Don't look at me like that ."
I sat down behind Cleo's desk and she had left her phone unlocked it looked like she was busy texting Clara..
CleoIts been a couple of days since the office incident.Rosa asked Angelo to leave me and the twins and he refused . I have dated outside my race and within my race but I have never had a lot of problems until recently. Rosa has put me through hell . Angelo didn't believe me at first and it hurt to the core that; he refused to see the fruit for the tree. Claudio had a meeting with Angelo on Friday morning. I was summoned upstairs by Blake and my stomach was in knots because I thought Rosa convinced MR Massa to let me go... When I walked into Angelo's office, the first thing I received was an apology and gratitude from Claudio. An apology for Rosa's behavior and attitude towards me and gratitude
AngeloCleo has been on edge since we flew down to Capetown. I remember reading in a section when I did a background on her that; she had an ex who lived here . I mean what are the odds of him cropping up and giving me a run for my money. I haven't seen how he looks like but he has the same name as the guy who sold me the house. He said he was coming over this morning to see if everything was okay .I woke up alone this morning and Cleo was next to me . It was a Sunday and I do remember last night... We didn't sleep angry at each other. Cleo promised to wake me up if she wakes up . She didn't do that this morning she was out cold snorining lightly on my chest. For the first time in a while I slept like a rock.Everyth
CleoI love dropping bombs when people aren't ready; rip the bandage off as quickly as I could to ease the blow , or push back a dislocated shoulder on the count of one insteadd of three. Angelo takes his time and I love him for that. He makes sure he does a good job with anything he does.I had a surprise Birthday breakfast planned for Angelo.We needed to get to the family restaurant on time and his mom was cooking . I don't know what changed but she's made it clear she didn't approve of my relationship with Angelo. It came as no surprise that my race was a factor. I wish we could find fair ground. The twins aren't to blame and Cloudio has been fair through the whole situation.
AngeloAny sort of rain is a good sign. I love rain, the smell of rain on soil is an amazing smell. It was lalready evening and Cleo hadn't shown up. She was supposed to be here four hours ago. The storm had already cleared and the sun had come out to play and so did everyone. Cleo said if she didn't make it on time;my mother would bring out the cake. I felt like a kid again. Ryan had been with Cleo's mother and the twins talking and it looked serious, Paul and the gang organised games and we also had a photo booth and graritude packs.I hacve to admit that something felt off and amiss. I felt like half of me was missing . My mother had caught me looking out to see if Cleo had come through and she looked at me with sad eyes and pointed upstairs . When I made it
CleoThere are days when I'm thankful. I am thankful for my family, friends, boyfriend and well my life. I was slowly coming around and the last thing I remember was feeling cold and in pain but now I'm warm. The environmet I was in was sterile but it felt like home. My body feels somewhat tired ... And sore. I opened my eyes and closed them; I tried to feel the side of my head anthed felt a bandage. I meantaly scanned my body and I could feel everything including pain. My tummy hurt pretty badly .I looked around and I saw him ... Who is he ? Who am I? Oh shucks the bump on my head must have affected my memory.I need to remember. Just now I said I was thankful for what and who? I feel so lost. I took in a sharp breath and the guy who was sitting at the foot of my bed woke up and came next to me .
AngeloI have been through hell and in hell for the past two weeks. I've gone from waking up every morning with the intention of finding Cleo; to being told to let her go, and prepare for the worst. She wasn't comimg home. I haven't slept for the past few days ,make that weeks. Something still felt amiss and I need time alone with Cleo.Cleo turned aroroound and poured a glass of wine I stopped her."Don't touch that . You are pregnant with our baby."Cleo looked at me confused
AngeloNothing ever really goes according to plan. I had planned to propose to Cleo but fate had other plans. I had planned to move to the beach house with Cleo and the kids; I even arranged for Gio's schooling ,transport, and everything ... And by that I mean play dates , sports and cultural activities.In a space of a month I've gone from being hopefull , to almost having the woman I love taken away from me , to finding out I was going to be a dad for the third time around only to lose the baby.When we flew back to Johannesburg; we took a month off work to just be with each other and work through stuff together . We were staying at the penthouse and Nicolai had resumed with transporting Gio to school. T
CleoThe past couple of weeks have been hectic on me both emotionally and physically.What I went through could have cost me my relationship , family and sanity. However I received the right kind of help; therapy , support and patience from my family.Angelo still feels guilty for not being there when the unthinkable happened. You'd think what happened would break us up but our willingness to fight for what we have , and still keep it together kept us going . Happiness for me comes from within; you can't give what you don't have and yesterday morning before lunch I surprised Angelo . At first he protested but after
