The next morning, Anita woke up with a hangover and saw Rio who had slept off close to her holding her from behind.She stretched turning to see a half awake Rio who smiled at her.“Ouchhh!” She said as she held her head, she had a resounding headache that she woke up with.Rio quickly jumped up from bed searching her wardrobe for painkillers, he had expected this to happen, she had gotten a hangover due to her excessive drinking late last night.Rio found a sachet of already used painkillers, grabbing them from the wardrobe he rushed towards her and handed them over to her with a glass of water.She collected the painkillers he handed to her and swallowed it. She thanked him for helping her out and being with her throughout the night.They both engaged in small talks, they had been engrossed in their discussions, they hadn’t taken note of the phone that had been buzzing non stop.Rio suddenly heard a sound nig of sure of what the sound was or where it came from they both ended their
Anita comes up with the best way to get Rio to sign her books, sooner or later Mimie would give her parents the complete details of the information she had briefed them with.She trusted her parents to come rushing over to her apartment demanding an explanation as to why she had been lying to them over the years.Anita doesn’t bother to reach out to Mimie or address the issue at all. Mimie had expected Anita to call her and beg hams she always did when it involved her secret.She had made sure to walk past Anita’s apartment that afternoon so she could get Anita’s reaction. She knew Anita would be pissed and could do something, she knew Anita would have figured everything by now.Walking past Anita’s door, Anita sighted her but ignored her and went back to what she had come out to do.Mimie is shocked at Anita’s behavior, she had expected an outburst from her, she had assumed she would rush at her at first sight but she was wrong as Anita ignored her.Rio who laid on his reliving the
Anita returned home with a gloomy face. Stacie’s words had hit her deep down. She had opened the door and found Gracie seated on the couch. Anita had flung her bag on the bed and threw her body on it not saying a word to Gracie.Gracie who noticed her strange behavior dropped the phone she held and went to the bed.“Is everything alright?” She asked as she removed the hair that had covered her face so she could look at her face properly.Anita, lost in her own thoughts, doesn't give a response to Gracie. Gracie, who had assumed she wasn’t ready to talk, just gave some pep talks as she always did to lighten up her mood when she felt down.“All is well” She said reassuring Anita.”Don’t ever let anyone get to you, they don’t know your worth so let them be.” She added helping Anita sit up on the bed.“You’re beautiful, bold and one of the strongest women I know so don’t let any piece of trash let you feel otherwise” Gracie continued, she was glad Anita was coming out of whatever she h
Mimie’s happinesses knows no bounds as she saw Bianca drag her box leaving the house. She had managed to buy her way into Stacie’s heart and gain control over her decision.She had said some many evil things about Bianca allowing Stacie to create a room for doubt which she took over and used to her own benefit.“Check” She said as she ticked Bianca’s name off her to-do list.She had carefully drawn her plan to get Rio to herself,which involved getting Bianca and Anita out of his life. Her plan had involved devising a means to get Bianca out of his house.She had never made plans for Anita but witnessing the kiss Rio shared Anita made her have a rethink.She had to come up with a pretty smart plan to get Anita out of her way.Getting Anita out won’t be easy as she had done with Bianca . She knew Rio was head over heels with Anita. She had taken notice of how he behaved when he was around her.The coffee shop experience was enough to see things properly.She stood from her seated pos
Mimie had been online reading trending news about celebrities,and came across loved up pictures of Anita and Rio.“No no no!” She screamed dropping her phone,she picked up the phone, she wanted to confirm what she had seen. She believed her eyes had seen something else. She looked at the picture and her eyes weren’t lying.Anita and Rio’s picture was trending as the best new couple.“How dare she go against my instructions?” Mimie asked, it was a rhetorical question that needed no response.She had warned Anita to stay far away from Rio (her man) as she liked to call him.She hated Anita’s guts, it provoked her more to see them tagged as the best new couple.“That’s supposed to me, me not her” She said under her breath as she walked restlessly around the room.She had gotten pissed seeing how Rio stared deep into her eyes and she smiled looking at his face.Without wasting time, she forwarded the pictures to Anita’s parents.Yes,Mimie was a stalker and a good one at that.She had g
Anita lost in thoughts doesn't know where to begin,she knew Mimie had called her parents, she could live her life on that. She was so sure it was her as her name popped up in her head as her father ended the call.She cracked her head hoping to get a possible solution to handle the matter, but nothing was forthcoming.She needed to come up with a quick plan to salvage the situation. She knew how her parents could be most times and with her father already pissed she couldn’t think but panic. She had sensed the disappointment in the tone of his voice when he called her a failure.Out of ideas, she picked up her phone and called Rio. She knew he’ll come through for how but she had no idea how he would.! Grrr! Grrr!Rio’s phone buzzed on the table where he had left it. He had been busy with his computer,editing some of Anita’s work as the editor he hired was delaying things.He grabbed the phone and smiled when he saw the caller.Mine,the identity of the caller read. He had changed her
Rio had tried to make her parents see things differently, he had even gone as far as telling them how Anita was passionate about writing.He had spoken highly of her books,telling them in a matter of time her book would be the best seller.Rio believed if he could make her parents see things differently then they’ll have no choice but to let her pursue her writing career.He spared no detail in talking about her books, he took his time to talk about the books, especially the one he had been working on before she called him.“Sir!” Rio said as he walked up to her father with his phone in his hands.He had opened his phone to show her father the copy of the book he had saved on his phone.“This finally came in handy” he thought to himself as she scrolled through pages of the book on his phone.The editor he had hired to edit the book had sent him the edited copy in the form of a file; he had gotten angry seeing the soft copy on his phone.He loved to make use of hard copy so he could m
Mimie had followed Rio to his favorite coffee shop,she had sneakily followed him from behind, she had kept on him ever since Anita was taken away.She had gone over to Anita’s house to see what would happen after she had called her parents.She knew Anita’s parents were manipulative and they would show their faces to taunt Anita for lying to their faces.She had seen Rio walk out of the apartment with his head bowed after Anita’s parents had pushed her into a taxi.She sat on the empty chair on the table he sat and tried to start a discussion, but he doesn’t pay any attention to her as he’s in deep thought about Anita.“He couldn’t help her out as he had promised, everything was working against him, he thought to himself as he heaved a sigh.It was barely up to 24 hours until she agreed to be his girlfriend and her parents had taken away like some kid that had no right to make decisions.“She was a grown woman,” He muttered under his breath as brought the cup of coffee which had been
