TOBIAS.

My father's burial finally ended and my mother still strongly believed that I had the card, maybe because he had left almost everything under my name as expected.

The fact that I actually had the card amused me.

The next day, I drove into Ace's compound. I guess he had something to say before he left the country for a game he had to play.

I was surprised when I walked into his house to find Lan there.

“Lan?” I creased my brow, taking a seat. “What’s this Ace?”

I waved at Lan’s gree

    FABIOLA. The firework that flew into the air made the shape of my husband's face, and his Jersey number. There were thousands of people here watching, thousands streaming live. Watching him get so much love after working so hard on the field was beautiful; I kept dabbing my eyes all night long. Sarah held Elora, my seven-month-old, while I held Ariel who won’t stop talking. “Look at that.” She pointed at the fireworks. “Dada!” She screams whenever Ace comes into sight. If there was anything she took from Dad, it was her sharp mouth. Fortunately not his height. I kept liking troll comments about Ace’s height and retaliated by liking comments of people saying I became bloated after childbirth. That was a lie; I looked very good. But the Anti Fabiola team won’t agree to that.Lan had posted Tobias on his page to celebrate with him, but he couldn't make it because of work; he was out of the country and so was Rose. She had reached out to congratulate me after my Elora was born. Pe

    TOBIAS. I’ve been extra careful with my wife since I heard the news. At her uncle's burial, I followed her everywhere; my actions were suspicious to Ace. Right now, Ace and I were out for a drink and I kept checking my phone. “Expecting a call?”“No, checking the time; I’ll be leaving soon.”He laughed and I raised a brow wondering what was funny. “Okay spill, did someone threaten the Barbie? I thought the enemies were dead? There’s someone new.”“Not funny Ace.” I snapped at him and smiled. “Tell me, now!”“Tell you what?”“Why you’re all Fabiola-Cowper-Handbag?”Handbag? “About my wife, she has a request.” I cut him off before he could ask further. Fabiola and I agreed to keep this between the doctor and us for now. Plus I don’t want Ace’s strict ass to scold me. “What could she want from me, she hates me.”“That’s not true.”“She liked a troll tweet about me last week.”“Maybe she hates you a little but the tweet was funny to her.”I remembered how she laughed hard. “The i

    FABIOLA. I waited; a minute passed and he said nothing. “Say something.” My eyes watered. “Tobias.”He stood rooted on the floor, just watching me quietly. “I already know you don’t want it, I would take it out but I just wanted you to know.” I gibbered. He took a deep breath, shut his eyes and opened them, before coming to join me on the bed. “You’re pregnant?” His eyes were on my stomach like he could already see a bump. “Yes, I can take it out if you want me to,” I told him again. “What do you want?” His eyes left my stomach to meet my eyes. I didn’t expect him to say that. “I don’t know. T, what do you want?”“I don’t know what I want.” He moved closer. “This is too much, like, like a bomb.”“I know that you don’t want to continue the Hawkeyes line or…..“I don’t care about the Hawkeyes or anything related to them; I care about us, do you think we can do this?”“Tobias.”“Tell me what you think because I don’t believe I can be a father; children hate me, Ace's daughter h

    FABIOLA“That was my last kill; I needed to do that, you know.” I watched him confess that he was behind his mother's sudden car explosion.“Lan asked that you watch your back.” My tone was low. He scoffed. “Impressive.”“Tobias! What’s funny?” I chided. “Nothing.” He gave me an apologetic look.All this was just to distract me from the main issue at hand, what I needed to tell him. I didn’t terminate the baby; I couldn’t do that without letting him know first. “Got you something.” He leaned in and gave me a peck before reaching for the drawer. It has been gift after gift since I returned here. Who knew the ice prince look was just a facade. He handed me a box and I frowned wondering what else such a box could carry. “Open whenever you like.” I sensed the nervousness in his voice. “You’re joking right?” My eyes darted from the box to him; he shrugged trying not to smile. “Why did you give it to me?” He rolled his eyes and I laughed. “Tobias! What’s in it?!”“Find out.” He lean

    TOBIAS. The entire football team reached out to me about my family tragedy. They decided to postpone the grand match that was to be held in my honor to next year. If only they knew that I didn’t care. I stepped out of the house and Cane held the car door for me to get in. “She’s headed for the White House.” Ace texted. As expected, I scoffed. Her dear Senator boyfriend was helping her get allies; she won’t give up will she?The company was mine, and I had decided to run it with Fabiola and anyone who wanted to be a part, including Lan. He would hate me for life but I could live with that. I slipped into my mother's car and waited for her to be done with the meeting. The driver kept stealing glances at me but said nothing; he knew better. The look on her face when she stepped in and found me there was priceless. “Hey.” I grinned wildly.“Tobias.” She sat down and fastened her seat belt as the drive began. She tried to keep a look that would make it clear that she wasn’t thre

    FABIOLA. I’ve loved him for a while but I didn’t want to be the first to admit it because I strongly believed he didn’t feel the same way. Tobias Hawkeye loved me. He blinked his lashes, looking at me, my hand still in his. “You can ignore me all day but just move back in.” He squeezed my hand. “From now on, I will tell you every single thing, down to things I eat and drink, no secrets. So please stop punishing me.”“You love me?” My eyes searched his. “I have for a long while now, I'm a mess without you.”I blinked back my tears and pressed my lips together. “Ace said he was going to find you a blonde or give his sister to you.”He chuckled and I joined him. “Ace is just being Ace.”“I love you.” I let it slip. “Even when I knew I wasn’t supposed to, I still loved you.” His throat worked. “I love your voice, your hard chest.” I hit his chest and he pulled me in, pressing me against him. “God, you have no idea how useless I feel without you.” He kissed my cheek, my forehead and
