“No, no! You are kidding me,” John said, surprised as he took a step back. He shook his head as he looked at Jacky, not believing what she just said.“Jacky, you are lying to me. You are lying to me, babe ..... I ….can't….no….!” he shouted.“Calm down, I don't understand why you are frustrated? You refused to acknowledge the pregnancy, what do you expect?” Jack said.John laughed sarcastically, “Are you serious right now? Are you proud of what you did? Huh? How could you do that to me, Jacky?”“What did you want me to do? I had nowhere to go, and neither did I want to see my baby suffer with me,” Jacky responded.John couldn't believe still, he shook his head regrettably, “Tell me you are lying! I can't believe you could do such a thing. You had no humanity left. Jacky, at least you could have given birth, take the baby to orphanage, look at us now we could have taken the baby back or perhaps a rich family could have adopted him.”John walked up and down in the house frustrated, “How
“Why are you not surprised, did you know?” Sylvia asked.“No, I am beyond surprise or confusion. Like...... Anyway, I still don't regret telling him that because. He was here for the baby and not the both of us,” Jacky replied.“Ate you hiding something from me?” Jacky asked.“Actually, I am relaxed knowing that John is Ivana's brother, I know my baby is in safe hands and besides he is close to his son than me. He just doesn't know,” Jacky stated.“What are you insinuating, girlfriend?” Sylvia asked.“What I am telling is that, I just found out that Ivana is the one who adopted my baby. But I am yet to see him,” Jacky replied, “Oh my goodness!!!…. Jacky, you are lucky… Ivana us a good woman and mother, oh my your sister-in-law is raising your child as her own? …by the way, how did you know it?”“I went back to children's home and bribed some officials I got access to the adoption book and when I followed everything, I found out that my baby was adopted by Ivana. My boy had a heart he
After dinner, John was still nowhere to be found.“Aren't you going to bed?” Miss Grace asked when she saw Ivana back in the living room after ticking the boys to bed.“How will I sleep not knowing where my brother is? He is the only brother I have,” Ivana said worriedly.“He is a grown up man. Remember tomorrow is a big day for your friend Milka, you are the maid of honor, do you want to have swollen eyes tomorrow?” Miss Grace asked.“But mum, I have to be worried, John haven't picked up the calls. In fact, he is the best man tomorrow, oh my goodness,” Ivana stated.She was about to call him one last time when John walked in staggering.“She hear..tbro..ken my heart, ….she......she killed my baby…she is a monster.....oh … I hate her….”John struggled to form a sentence.The moment John stood in the living room, liquor smell spread in the house.“What are you talking about?” Miss Grace asked.“Have you been drinking? John ….oh my goodness…. Tomorrow is your best friend wedding,” Ivan
Milka returned to bed, but she couldn't get asleep, she kept on turning on bed. She was expecting the call from Mike. When Mike, on the other hand, wants to keep her anxious about it. He had promised to call her, but she hadn't.‘Tomorrow is my big day, I want to look at my best. It won't be good if I have sagging eyes, I better force myself to sleep.’After thirty minutes of none stop shower, Charo was asked by Ivana to go remove John from the shower.At least the cold shower helped him a lot because he could stand without staggering.**Jacky went to bed regretting why she didn't tell John the truth. She felt bad that she had lied to the man she still loves.‘He deserves it after all he did you me. Perhaps he was here for his baby alone and not me or us,’ He thought.Like someone reading her mind, Sylvia said, “Relax and find away to call him and tell him the whole truth. The time you will be ready to do so, bestie. You better catch some sleep now.”**Eva and Alice left the count
In the morning, the makeup artist arrived a bit earlier. Rhoda woke up as usual to prepare breakfast for the family. They all had breakfast together with the Makeup artist before Ivana gave them instruction.Charo left immediately to Mike's ace because he was to come with him to the wedding venue.One makeup artist was to prepare the girls, Rhoda, Stacy, Gloria and Nekesa and Miss Grace. Ivana offered to do her make up. The other artist was to focus on Milka alone. They all went to different rooms, Before going to her room, Ivana checked on her brother. He was already awake, though had hangovers.“Good morning, are you okay? Won't you prepare for the wedding?”“Uhm…mmmmh….wedding? Whose wedding are you getting married?” John asked.“You are still drank? Won't you attend your best friend's wedding? You were to be his best man,” Ivana stated.“I am sorry guys, but I won't, I am heartbroken and embarrassed too, tell Mike that I am sorry,” John said without turning to look at Ivana.Ivana
Charo arrived at Mike's place. He was all ready, just relaxing on the couch with Paul as they take breakfast.Ivana had earlier informed him about John, so he had to chase the best man.“Is my bride ready?” Mike asked the moment Charo walked in.Charo chuckled and didn't reply.A call came into Mike's cellphone. He thought that Milka was the one calling him.“She is already missing me,” Mike said anxiously.“Yeah, we need to go, if you are ready,” Charo chirped in.Mike picked the call and realized that it's a new number. He contemplated in picking it, and he decided to pick it.“Hello, Mike, please don't hang up on me,” a voice said.Mike decided to put it on the loudspeaker.“Hey, why are you calling me on my special day, are you mad or something?” Mike asked, trying so much not to gate angry.A long sigh, “Yes I am mad, I am madly in love with you. Please don't marry her, don't marry Milka. I will do everything you want, I will love you unconditionally, and I will be submissive.”E
The priest and the groom arrived at the same time. The invited guest were already seated, everyone admiring the scene. Everything was ready and the only person they were waiting was Milka.Ivana was already prepared. John was still sleeping, alcohol was still in his head. Miss Grace took his grandson and walked out to the decor.Ivana went to Milka's room, “Ate you ready, my dear?” She asked with a smile I have never been ready.“Milka, it's your day, you look so beautiful and gorgeous. I wish you the best in your marriage, I may be a divorce, but I will be there to guide you when marriage becomes unbearable. Love your husband, cherish him and be submissive, never decide without consulting him,” Ivana advised.Milka nodded. “I love you so much, and I am going to miss you,” Ivana said.“Awwww don't make me emotional, I will be visiting you guys”, Milka said.“Come here,” Ivana said as she pulled her into a hug.“And one thing before we walk out, “I want to be a godmother,” Ivana said
Finally, the moment that everyone was waiting for. After exchanging the rings, the priest cleared his throat, then said.“By power bestowed upon me, I now declare you husband and wife,” the guest clapped as they cheered.“Have you guys ever kissed?” The priest asked.“Not really just as a peck, but not an intimate one,” Mike replied as the crowd laughed.“Awww, unbelievable, I know you are dying to do so. Mike Oga you can now kiss your bride,” The priest instructed.The guest cheated as they clapped. Mike smiled before leaning in and claimed Milka's full lips, indeed he was dying to do so, the way he was kissing her with raw passion communicated it all.Mish couldn't hold her anger, disappointment, and Jealousy. She left the venue hurriedly, tears flowing nonstop. She can't believe that she lost mike FOREVER. What hurt her most is the statement Mike told her earlier when she called him.Again, losing Mike to the woman she despised so much.“It's all your fault Ivana, you allowed Milka
