"You wanna join me to watch a movie?" She asked the moment they stepped into the house and once again, Zeke was lost for words. Why was she acting so nice towards him all of a sudden?." It's okay if you don't feel like it, I mean I just wanted us to have a day of peace in the house but you are welcome to decline" she added and made to go upstairs but he stopped her." What kind of movies do you like?"" Uhmm, romance?" She asked, smiling and that was it, Zeke couldn't hold it in any longer." What is going on with you?Why are you acting all Nice?"" You don't like it?" She asked back, her face becoming gloomy." No no, I do" he quickly defended and she smiled again before going back upstairs while Zeke breathed heavily. He had a feeling something was wrong, " let's see how this turns out"……..Half an hour later she came back downstairs dressed in a pair of shorts and a big T-shirt and once again Zeke was lost for words, she looked so Happy and bubbly that no matter how he tried he c
When Bryan entered the room, Ava was dealing out instructions to Elora and she really looked mad. For a few minutes he just stood there and kept looking at her unaware of the fact that the lady on the bed had not yet seen him, this was the first time he was being this close to her and he already found her interesting. She talked with poise and dignity and he couldn't stop himself from smiling lightly when he saw how scared her assistant looked, she was really scary.But his Joy was short-lived when Elora saw him and her eyes lit up with gladness, she was glad her savior was here."Your husband is here ma'am, I will go and finish the work you have assigned to me" saying that she scramed out of the room before the latter would even call her back while Ava's eyes darkened the moment she saw the person." Should I have security throw you out before you know I do not want to see your annoying face?" She asked angrily.Bryan gave an awkward smile before moving towards her a little, " no, I
Taking one last glance at the house, Zeke sighed before dragging his suitcase outside. Bryan was already back and there was no reason for him to stay there any longer but was there really no reason?.Just as he was about to enter his car, he noticed Pam's car drive into the compound and Ava alighted. She had a grim look on her face as her eyes darted from him to the car and back." What is going on here?" She asked, her voice sounded weak but authoritative." Leaving" came his swift reply as he leaned on the car lazily, " Bryan is back now so there is no need for me to be here"She scoffed, " why do you think you have the right to make that decision?" She asked," I am not done with you and until I am done, you don't have the right to make your own decisions"Zeke lazily lifted his body from the car before taking two steps towards her. I have been enduring your punishment for two months now Ava, how much more do you want to punish me?" Ava, remember the doctor said you should rest rig
The sounds of the birds chirping happily in her garden made her open her eyes and she breathed in a breath of fresh air and her lips curved up in a smile. It was a Sunday morning after all and she could just spend the whole day reading her favorite novel.Tugging at her hair lightly, Ava made her way down from her bed and walked outside. A hot cup of coffee would do the job of making her feel refreshed, and moreover she had to visit the crematorium today, it was her mother's death anniversary after all.Using her hand to tousle her hair she quickly jogged down the stairs with her shorts and shirt when she saw a certain someone just seated on the sofa and he seemed to be immersed in what he was doing but as soon as he heard her footsteps, he closed the book and turned to face her. He didn't smile or frown, he just looked…..Zeke." Why are you up so early?" She asked casually walking into the kitchen and Zeke was taken aback, was she talking to him?, " It's fine if you don't want to an
When Zeke came back downstairs she was already dressed up waiting for him and Bryan too was seated on the sofa, his eyes fixated on the beauty sitted in front of him.As soon as Zeke's eyes landed on her, for a moment he froze. How was she so pretty no matter what she wore?" Ready?" She asked finally looking in his direction and he managed to nod, " very well then" she added before standing up.She was dressed in a pair of black fitted gown that stopped just below her knee and with those six inches heels, she looked unstoppable. What more?Her hair was tied in a high ponytail making her look very intimidating and that aura of hers could not be ignored. Yes, that was Ava Brown and she was worth every single praise right now.Sparing a quick glance at Bryan who had a grim look on her face, she smiled before walking out. Two of them thought she was a pushover right? they just don't know her." Stay away from her as much as possible" Bryan warned his friend who just smirked before walking
" Go, have a shower and by the time you are done dinner will be ready" Zeke said as they entered the house, she then nodded and made her way upstairs while he walked towards the kitchen rolling up his sleeves." Let's get the chef in us out" he muttered to himself as he set to work..……It was already half an hour when he heard her coming downstairs and he smiled,the food was already ready and was already adorning the dining table while he just sat quietly waiting for her to finally come and he was not disappointed when she reached. Her eyes opened wide as saucers as her eyes drank in the sight of the dishes on the table." Are you sure you are ready to devour all this?" He asked teasingly, seeing the look on her face." Well, why don't you take the trouble of introducing your meals to me, they look delicious I must say" she replied sitting down and he nodded before standing up and clearing his throat," This" pointing to the dish in front of her, " is my special pudding, it Is the fo
The soft knock on the door made her raise her head from her laptop." Come in" she replied and the door slowly creaked open before Zeke entered with the box " Uhm sorry if I Interrupted anything, I just came to bring the box" he said apologetically when he saw she was busy." It's okay Zeke, thanks. Please keep it in the wardrobe" she answered and turned back to her laptop, she had a lot to do since she would be away for most of the day tomorrow." Right" he muttered to himself before walking towards the wardrobe, boy was it huge, " I will get going now, you can concentrate on your work" he added when he was done and she nodded before he walked away but she stopped him when he was already by the door." Thank you for today Zeke, I really appreciate everything you did. I hope we can do this again next time" she said sincerely and he raised his eyebrows in amazement." So are we friends?"Ava scoffed before tousling her hair, " I won't necessarily say that, remember I still have to rev
" Look ava stop, you can't just leave like that" Zeke called as he grabbed her hand before she halted.she was heaving sighs and he knew at that moment she was trying everything humanly possible to stop herself from exploding in anger." Let go zeke, I am really not in the mood to talk to anyone right now. Elora get the car ready" she ordered turning to her and Elora quickly nodded before running off, she knew more than to annoy her boss right now." Calm down Ava, if you leave like this then everyone will criticize you more than ever. Just try to relax and think this through" he tried to persuade her but it was like pouring water on a stone, it was having no effect on her at all." You don't need to worry about my wife dude, I can take care of her" a voice said behind them and Bryan appeared. Now he was not pretending to be happy but he wanted Zeke to know more than to cross the line." What the hell was the stunt you pulled back there Bryan?Are you nuts?" Zeke couldn't help but ask.
