“I take it you and your husband are yet to settle?” I asked Allison as I placed my car in drive, backing out of the parking lot of the restaurant. I glanced at her and I saw that the expression on her face looked like something heavy was weighing on her mind.

“He had an affair once,” she said out of the blue, “it was very intense… they had a child together,” I could hear the pain in her voice.

“I am so sorry, Allison,” I said, “I had no idea.”

“No one knows,” she said, “it happened

    Brandon “Elaine,” I said her name softly, feeling awkward at once. Salma was sleeping in my bed and my pregnant fiancée was standing in front of me—both mothers of my children. How was I supposed to choose? “I… I came because the baby kicked,” she looked so excited that it caused me to frown. Was this pregnancy brain? The baby was all but two months old, and it was already kicking? I had studied medicine and so I knew for a fact that babies did not kick during the second month. “Babies don't kick…”“I know you would say that,” she moaned, “but I'm sure. Do you want to feel my stomach?” she asked me. I shook my head. “I… " It's late, Elaine,” I told her. She could not honestly tell me that she had driven to my house at eleven at night because she wanted me to feel our baby kick in her stomach. “Late? I can spend the night here,” she said, “I think the baby wants to sleep with you.” I gave her a hard stare as I realised that I was in for a very long eighteen years. It was clear

    Brandon The question threw me off for half a second. I was so lost in my lust that the question physically hurt me. I tore my gaze forcefully from her and replied, “Uhm… no.” She raised an eyebrow, “You don't have a guestroom? That's hard to believe.” “I do… I just,” I paused, “it's under renovation.” “Renovation?” she echoed, not quite believing me. “Yes,” I said, “I'm changing the colour… I was converting it for Leona.” The expression on her face turned blank, making it impossible to read her emotions. “That's sweet,” she said after several seconds of silence had passed between us. “You said… she likes monochrome colours, yeah?” Salma nodded, “Yes… Grey is her favourite.” “So no pink, huh?” “God, no!” Salma laughed, shaking her head, “She hates pink.” I laughed lightly and the thought of Leona dissolved whatever lust that charged my body. “I guess I'll have to tell the contractor to change the colour scheme all over,” I said, testing my luck further, I asked, “I know sh

    Brandon “I'll be spending the night at the Ritz Carlton,” Salma said, completely ignoring all I had just said about loving my daughter. “You almost fell twice,” I said, “you're staying at my place.” I expected her to protest but she said nothing, only stared out the window. The ride up to my Penthouse was quiet. When I opened the door to let her in, I realised it was the first time she had ever been here. She did not comment on my minimalist taste or monochrome aesthetics. She simply asked, “Where's your bathroom?” I led her quietly into my room—my room which I never shared with anyone. I held my breath as she stepped in. Her eyes swept the large bedroom which had as little furniture as possible, giving it the same feel as my office. She gazed at the floor-to-ceiling windows that stretched across one side of the wall which made it possible to gaze down at Dallas as though the beautiful night lights were a part of the room. Her eyes took in the monochrome design—charcoal black and

    Salma “He's uhm… he's…” but my body gave out before I could give her a definite answer. I found myself suddenly supported against the frame of Brandon's body. “Are you okay? Let's get a doctor in here,” he said, worry lines creasing his forehead. I stood upright, plopping my frame into the nearest chair I could find. “I'm alright,” I said, “I'm just…” but Leona was looking at me, and I did not want her to think that her sickness had caused my exhaustion, “I'm fine.” A nurse walked into the room and asked for Brandon. “That's me,” he said, following the nurse out of the room. Rita and I exchanged glances the second Brandon stepped out. But if it was Allison who asked, “You're keeping this a…” she allowed her voice to trail off as she looked at Leona. “Mommy?” Leona turned to look at me by her side, “You need to see a doctor.” I smiled warmly at her. “I really don't, sweetheart,” I told her, “I'm not leaving your side.” It did not matter how exhausted I was, my place was by Leo

    Brandon“Of course I'll get tested,” I said. There was no arguing about this. I would do anything to save Leona's life. Salma hiccuped, “Thank you.” “Where is she?” I asked her. She responded with a hiccup. “I'll get her some water,” Allison offered, standing up. I could sense that Allison had a thousand questions, but this was not the time for questions. She returned with a bottle of water, and after chugging some down, the hiccups relented. “She's at Medical City Children's Hospital,” Salma said, “I came to ask Allison to take a look at Leona. If… we can't find a match so the doctors are talking about managing her symptoms and she's getting worse…” her voice trailed off into a sob. “I'll take a look,” Allison said, then she turned to me, “And Brandon needs to be tested because he is… is a…” “He's…” I saw Salma shut her eyes, “he's her father.” I finally heard the words I had wanted Salma to admit to me for a while now. But hearing her say them did not make me feel better at

Maybe the rumours about McCoy were true after all. “You can't believe the rumours,” I said softly, “but you can get a private investigator if you want to be sure.” She turned her head so she could focus her gaze on me. “Ther

    Salma “I won't be returning to Maryland tomorrow,” I informed Freddie as he drove Leona to the hotel. “Your trip to Sudan is only three days away,” he said, “will you be flying out of Texas, then?” I shook my head, “I don't know yet. I just… I have something I need to take care of here in Texas.

    Brandon“Why can't you tell them you're at the hospital?” she asked me, her voice was still a whisper. “I just can't, okay?” I said, “Let's talk later.” I hung up the call and checked to see if Leona was still by my side as she had the tendency to disappear when she felt like it. “Do you have to

But his movements were too slow, like he was trying to savour the moment. “Faster, Brandon… Oh, yes! There… that's good!” A few mor
