She walks and sits on her bed feeling tired of everything...Not long, a knock was heard on the door. she didn't respond knowing it was Mark persisting in talking to her...
"how annoying he can be ''...she said under her breath. the knock didn't stop and it only got her angrier..." what the fuck do you nee..." her words were stuck in her mouth as she stares at the person before her. It wasn't Mark, it was Mrs. Anderson, the owner or should I say the landlord of the house she's in...Mrs. Anderson was confused as to why she welcomed her in such a manner "Are we quarreling?" she raises a brow at her, silently demanding an answer..."didn't know it was you, was trying to get rid of a pest that's pestering my life" Mr.s Anderson nods her head in understanding..."it's our inevitable fate...all we have to do is keep chasing them till our death" Mrs. Anderson jokes and both burst out in laughter..."right" it was a relief to her but that was just for a moment..."What do I owe this visit, Mrs. Anderson?" it was a surprise to her seeing her today of all days..." It's the last day of the month, I am here for my pay" she brings out a sheath of paper with something written on it..." you've got this month's rent to pay and that for the last two months" Smiles didn't know whether to laugh or to cry, she didn't have the money, not even a penny..."It's month's end and I know I have to pay you but, to be honest, I don't have the money" her tone was very low, it barely came out as a whisper but Mrs. Anderson was able to get her..."In that case, I have no extra month to grant you...I can't keep allowing you to stay without having a dime for a penny, my family depends on this" she was disappointed. She pulls on another sheath of paper from the file and hands it to her. It was a notice to her to evacuate in three days...Smiles was saddened reading the content but regardless of the turnout of even, she was grateful for Mrs. Anderson because she's been more understanding to her..."Is my day a curse or what?" her heartaches, perplexed by what's going on. Today is a terrible day for her, no good thing has been heard since the time she walked through the company door. First, it was her interview, then the incident with Keane, and now, this...can this day be any worse than it already? Is there any good thing waiting for her? she closed the door holding on to her throbbing head...her stomach grumbles, only then did she realize she hasn't eaten and except for the half loaf of bread, there's nothing more to it...she planned on going shopping but because of what happened, she didn't think about it. she is just throwing off a bank card as if it's nothing and now she is dying of hunger, how pathetic...With no other choice, she picks on her breath and eats making sure she drinks enough water to hold on to her stomach...The light shines brightly on her face as she twists her face in dissatisfaction...ever so slowly, she opens her eyes trying to get acquainted with the light as She rubs on it, yawning out loud. It was a new day and there were a few hours left for the time that was given to her to be over. She picks up the card on the table and stares at it for what seems like a long time seemingly spaced out...She gazes at her room, touching the sky-blue paint on the wall as if trying to feel something on the other side of the wall...After a long thought, she finally come to a decision, she picks up her phone and dial on the number...the call ended and she hurriedly grabs her towel, headed to the bath for a quick shower knowing Keane's driver will be here at any time...she walks out of her room looking all clean and fresh as she makes her way out of the building...She was welcomed by the bright sunlight oozing out from the sky and out of reflex, she closes her eyes before opening them slowly...a black Lamborghini stood before, and the man opens the door for her which she enter quietly...their rid was fast and in no time, they were in front of the big gray building, it was a hotel...not just a hotel but a five-star hotel...she was led inside by the man. The lifter they took was written on it VIP only. It was her first time entering such an expensive and classic building, so the feeling was just so good...when they reached the top floor, he led her into a room that was written VVIP room only...he opened the door, silently urging her to go in. she thought he would follow her behind but she was shocked and surprised to see him close the door behind... Fright was all over her face but when she turned to the bed, there was no one there. She was happy. The view of the room was beautiful. She tried on the flower jar with her tiny long slender fingers before making her way to the bed and falling on it feeling so relaxed...she was consumed in her world that she didn't realize he was right behind her..."Enjoying yourself?" his deep baritone voice vibrates jolting her from her thoughts...She jumps off the bed out of reflex standing still like she was assigned to keep on standing there..." s-sorry...I didn't see you there" his hair was damp, as water dripped from his head down to his broad hairy chest. her eyes never leave his face. she stares at his pink lips feeling tempted by the sight of him with only his towel on, she could feel her self-defense shattering without him doing anything ..."go through the paper on the table and sign," he tells her. she picks it up, curious to know what's written on it...Smiles and Lisa arrived at the church alongside grandma Shiley, they looked so beautiful in the all-white dress.Both girls were super happy, but Smiles was on the edge.Even though she knows things will turn out fine, she couldn't help but sweat remembering the last time her long dream wedding was ruined.As soon as their car stops, she helps herself out not minding how heavy her dress is. She rushed out and was met by Her dad and Mr Austin.Since she came back, she hasn't got the time to visit them. She was happy to see them but she didn't have the time to spend with them as her eyes darted around, looking for a certain someone.Her heart calls out to Keane, she pushes herself through climbing up the stairs."Heading somewhere dear wife?" Keane sounded from behind.Smiles could feel her heart flutter in excitement as she turns to him, without a word, she throws herself into his arms."You are here, thank God" she breathes out, tears rolling down her cheeks.She can't tell how scared
In a room with little or no light was a lady tight to a chair, as she struggled to set herself free.She didn't know how she found herself locked up, the last thing she remembered was getting into a taxi after her car broke down."Is anyone there, please help!" She cries, face twisting in pain because of the rope tied around her wrist"I need to get out of here," she murmurs to herself.As if being heard, the door flew open as a man in black walked in black followed by a lady."Who are you? And what do you want from me?" She asked in a trembling voice. She doesn't understand why they are keeping her hostage.It was dark, and the light coming from outside made it hard for her to see their faces."Please let me go!" Her cries came."Let you go? Are you serious right now?" Fiona's voice sounds as she makes her way to where she is tied up."Do I know you? Who are you?" She stutters, unable to figure out the owner of the voice.Fiona let out a sad laugh, "who am I?" She tilts her head to t
It was late in the night when Smiles and Keane put their babies to sleep."Finally!" Smiles exclaim, taking in a deep sigh of relief. It wasn't an easy tax to make Nate sleep but she did it at last."He seems to be a naughty one" Keane pulls her into his arms, circling her in his large broad chest."The apple doesn't fall far away from the tree!" Smiles said, chuckling."I know right? Only now I see how naughty and clingy I was and still am, but I love it" He caresses her earlobe. "I don't mind being naughty, so long as it's you…I will love to be a thousand more. "Smiles giggles, place her slender hands on his chest as she struggles to push him away."I've got to rest, you better be a good boy" She walks out of the room, and Keane follows her behind."I'm always a good boy," He said, Smiles couldn't help but laugh."Well, too bad…I don't see that. You always look like a devourer to me" She pushes open their bedroom door and walks in."That's harsh, but coming from you… it sounds sex
It's been a week since Smiles left LA back home, she's getting over her pain with the help of Keane and her babies.She felt, even better after having to talk with Derrick about their mom, both siblings had themselves and families to love.Smiles walk out with a tray of pastries… "Here everyone, we've got some delicious pastries made by your chef cook, Keane Austin!" She said the smile in her voice couldn't be ignored.Keane stands by the side, hands on the waist like a superhero. Well, he isn't a superhero but he is a super dad and husband to his kids and wife."Oh common now, we all know this will be a complete disaster!" Derrick jokes, knowing Keane can never cook.Smiles and Lisa laugh heartily, Derrick's face was one to die for.Before Keane could open his mouth to defend himself, Smiles beat him to it."I bet you will regret your words after tasting this delicious piece of work made by my sweetheart" Smiles brush on Keane's chin, tiptoe and kiss his lips."Don't think I will ge
Derrick stares at Fiona in disbelief. He wasn't expecting her to show up all of a sudden but most of all, he was surprised seeing her all teary with swollen eyes."Mom?" He calls out, standing up from the sofa. Lisa was long-standing, staring at the lady with a frown.She can swear she thought it was Smiles, even though it's been a long time since she last saw her, the look was the same until Derrick called her mom, then, she understands that it wasn't Smiles but rather it was Fiona, his mother. The woman he's been talking about."What's wrong? Is everything ok?" Derrick asked as he reached out to her."Derrick, my son… I'm so sorry" Fiona apologizes as he reaches out to him, and folds his face in her hands."I was so lost with my taste of revenge, I didn't know" She cries.Derrick frowns, not understanding what she's saying."What are you saying mom, what's wrong?" Derrick was worried and concerned, it hurt him to see her cry this pitifully."I did it and I'm sorry, I… I am so bad an
Smiles arrived in New York all tired and weak, luckily, Nate and Kate were not at home. They had insisted on staying behind with grandma Shiley and grandpa Jimmy, that alone was a big relief.Smiles cries herself to her room and slumps on the bed as soon as she sees it. Her silent sob intensifies, and she grabs the pillowcase and pulls it to her chest.This is the time she needs Keane the most, she can't handle everything by herself. It's like holding on to the world's load, unable to keep your balance.As if God answered her prayers, the door pushed open and Keane emerge from behind. He was dressed in his usual navy blue suit, hair combed to the back.As soon as Smiles saw him, She rushed and threw herself into his arms. She couldn't hold on to her cry as it increased.Keane was taken aback by her sudden hug but he didn't push her away, he let her hug him as much as she wanted while he stroked her hair lightly before carrying her to bed."I love you so much, I'm sorry for hurting you
