Meant To Be HIS Chapter Twenty one ~ Ariana
I had an attitude all through the workday. It was midday, Damien had been away for a week and half and he had the audacity to go a day without talking to me. And even when I tried reaching him, he was not picking up. In fact, he was offline. Having a 'talk' with Claire had her avoiding me in the office and that made me so fulfilled. I had had enough of drama and I did not sugarcoat words when I spoke to her about her obnoxious attitude. I called her out on her obvious attempt to compete with me over my husband, she blatantly denied it and I warned her to let it be true cause I had my ways of handling such people (even if I didn't)."Is there a problem Alfred?" I asked him when he had been quiet and staring at me for longer than a minute since he entered my office."We have a problem." He said, gulping afterwards."Not another scandalous piece of content please?" I groaned, running my fingers through my hair."It's not that actually." "Then what is it?" I asked with a head tilt."So

I rushed into the sick bay section of the school after being barely able to drive within the speed limit."What happened?""He fell off the swing ma'am." Damon's teacher answered me."Where's my son?" I asked, searching around."This way." She nervously said, leading me to the room they had him in."Mommy!" Darian ran into my arms the moment he saw me. "Hey baby." I kissed him on his cheeks and put him down as I spotted Damon on the bed with a bandage around his head and seemed to be asleep. I stared at the red patch of blood, examining it before I saw the dislocated arm that had been wrapped with a bunch of bandages as well."Oh my baby." I couldn't help but sob. I was so confused at this point. Was I supposed to call Damien? Or Mom, Tracy and Aiden? I was so overwhelmed.To my surprise, mom came in shortly after. "They called the house and Ma Rosa called me. She didn't want to make you panic at work." She told me.I went into her arms for comfort. I loved being a mom but seeing my

"You should have consulted me at least." I said when she told me about how she fired the nannies."What do you mean? They neglected their responsibilities and I took the best decision." Of course she was not going to understand my point."I'm not disputing that but you could have at least let me know before taking such a rash decision." I reasoned. "So when you fire people it's not a rash decision but for me it is?" She fumed. Okay this was going sideways.I sighed, "Ariana don't start. This is not about me.""Pray tell, what is it about?" Her glare was a furious one. I gulped."I'm saying you firing both of them out of nowhere is just unnecessary.""Did you even listen to what I said??" Her voice had gone up a notch."I did." I said with a single nod.She shook her head in disagreement. "No, I don't think you did. These persons neglected your kids, our kids. Not only did they disrespect my authority as one of their employers, they put my children at risk.""Our children." I correcte

~Weeks on~It was Valentine's day. And for the first time in years, my man wasn't with me to celebrate it. How unfair that his flight had to be delayed due to some unexpected weather storm. It had been a month and I was already tired of missing him. Most of all, I was tired of the kids asking when he was coming back. I had said 'soon' so much that they replied it before me whenever they asked. Damien had better be back soon before chaos would be begin.I looked up when I heard a knock on my door. "Come in." I said without looking up from my system. I assumed it was one of the staff with their usual requests for approval on certain ideas."Delivery for Mrs Kingston." I heard.Glancing up, I gasped at the gigantic bouquet Damien sent me. I thought of how to carry it as I got on my feet. Picking the card out from the bunch of roses, the staff who had their phones out made me read it aloud. 'To the woman who has made my life complete, turned my world upside down and still fixed it with a

I looked at the time with a clenched jaw as I walked around the room dancing around with Ava's head laying on my shoulders as she fought with sleep. It was past 9pm. I had put the boys in bed, they had school the next day and had been asking for their mom too so I made them sleep on time even when they wanted to stay awake so bad. Ariana wasn't back for whatever reason and I had called and texted her so many times since work hours were over. I was beginning to get worried until I tracked her ring and vehicle on my system and saw that she was on the move. Didn't seem like her car was hijacked or anything cause I would have been reached out to by now. Pacing the room calmly, hoping for Ava to finally fall asleep so I could take her to the nursery, I waited for Ariana, visibly enraged at her misconduct. Few minutes later, my daughter was finally asleep and I laid her in the cot in her nursery. I was just coming out of the room when I heard Ariana's footsteps. She jumped as soon as her

"Hey baby." I said as soon as I got into the room, taking off my shoes in the process. "Hey mama." He came over and kissed me deeply. "How was your day?" I asked when we pulled apart. "Great. But you abandoned me." He pouted, unpinning my hair, just so he could let it down and brush through it with his fingers. "You didn't see my message on time?" I asked in surprise. "I didn't actually. I already found my way to your office and Claire told me you already left." My smile dropped at the mention of Claire. "How nice of her to be the one to inform you of my absence." I sarcastically said. "Why do you have a problem with this girl?" He questioned. "I don't have a problem with anyone." I muttered, leaving his arms to make my way to the closet and take off my clothes so I could take a bath. He followed me closely. "She told me everything that happened while I was away." He said in an accusatory tone. I turned around and scowled. "What did she tell you?" "Did you accuse her of tryi

"Hey babe. Where are you? I need you here, there's a bit of a problem." I dropped the voicemail, trying to not sound annoyed even though I was. It was another Wednesday. Ariana was off to church and was unavailable when I needed her. Inasmuch as she seemed so happy to be free to practice her faith, the last couple of weeks had us drifting apart. We hardly spent time together. The whole issue with Cheryl was stretching longer with the authorities and though I was trying to do my best to help from behind the scenes, the case was a tough one. Cheryl had called, crying heavily and it had me destabilized even when I tried to assure her that everything was going to be alright. I paced the room for a bit, deep in thought over how to sort out the situation at hand. Out of habit, I rubbed my palm all over my face while I dialed Ariana's phone once again. It still went to voicemail. Letting out a frustrated growl, I was so close to smashing my phone when the door came open and she walked in.

"Good morning." I said the moment I woke up and saw him."How was your sleep?" He asked while adjusting his tie."Sweet. You're off to work already?""Yeah I've got some things to sort out."I hoped to go with him but it was fine. "Okay. Thanks for last night.""Why are you thanking me?" He actually seemed confused."I'm just happy we're cool again." I sighed in relief."It's fine. You're okay this morning?" "Pretty much, yeah." I nodded."Alright. You take care." He kissed my forehead and left."No lips?" I said after the door shut. That gesture had me overthinking in the next minute. I asked myself if he had really forgiven me like he said last night. He came back late again. I assumed it was one of those meetings that took forever. But then, there was a slight trace of alcohol in his breath when we shared a brief kiss. I decided to not question him about it cause I was avoiding a fight.But then again, I saw glitter on the back of his palm. He was at a party, I guessed. That was
