Andres “Who’s here?” I asked because I wanted to be sure that I didn’t hear her wrong when she said it the first time. I tucked Joan into her bed and turned to the nanny who had followed us upstairs when we arrived. I called her over because I couldn’t bring Joan with me on my trip because the last time I tried it, she had a really hard time and it took a long time for her to recover after we returned. I tried hiring someone else since I gave the nanny time off to take care of her son but no one else wanted to watch her. I had no choice but to call her. “Ms. Danielle.” The nanny announced again. I laughed in disbelief. I genuinely didn’t expect her to be back so soon. I purpose didn’t try to reach out for her because I knew I won’t be around long enough to actually sit her down and talk to her. that’s why I wanted to wait until I return from my trip to see her. By then, I would have all the time in the world to actually pursue her until she gives in to what I want. No, con
Danielle “That will be so great! She hasn’t stopped talking about you and asking her daddy when you will come visit her again. Even before they left the house earlier, she asked if you were going to come to them.” I smiled at her words. Now I didn’t want to take back what I said about watching her. “She did, didn’t she? I missed her too and wanted to see her and that’s why I came here. Do you know when they will be back?” I asked her. “Yes, in about an hour or two. Their playdate usually takes two to three hours and they left over an hour ago.” I nodded in understanding. “Should I go and show you your room? It’s already cleaned up for you.” I wanted to say no but on second thought, I nodded and she led the way. I kept telling myself that I just wanted to see and I had no plans to actually stay here with him. No plans to move out of my pack for him and no plans to actually take him up on his offer no matter how good it might be but I knew I was already wavering. Before, I
Danielle“Oh, hey.” I said when the person who opened the door for me when I knocked at Andres' front door a few hours after my call with Martha ended turned out to be the same nanny Andres had banished two days ago. My shock when I saw her standing there and all smiles didn’t go unnoticed by her.I couldn’t believe I was seeing her again when I thought we probably would never cross part ever again. I didn’t expect her to still be at Andres house after he gave her only twenty- four house to leave the pack with her family.“Please come in.”I didn’t even realize I was still standing outside and looking at her in shock until she spoke. I managed to get over myself and walked into the house. I turned back to her as soon as she closed the door.“What happened?” I asked her. I wanted to know what happened and why she was back working for him.“I don’t know what you did but you helped me.” I stared at her in both confusion and more shock.“I helped you? How? I didn’t do anything.” I to
Danielle Okay, hiding her away doesn’t make him a bad father. One thing is sure, he loves his baby and I saw it two days ago. The way he rushed home and the way his daughter reacted to him too. Kids don’t fake feelings. “He doesn’t have a child!” Martha said again. I contemplated whether I should tell her or not and in the end, I decided to just out with it! It’s not like having a child is a bad thing. “I am not even surprised that you don’t know about his daughter but he has a child! She is about six or seven years old,” I told Martha. “I know he has a kid but she isn’t his biological daughter! Her name is Joan and she is his sister’s kid,” I blinked in confusion. I knew Andres’s twin sister before she tragically passed away. There’s no way she had a baby and I had no idea. Plus, his sister died eight years ago along with his other family members. It has been years but I still remember when the news came out. It had been the most tragic thing to ever happen to a man a
Danielle “I am so close to just ending my time there and starting all over again somewhere else.” I told my best friend on the phone. Two days! I have been locked up inside my house for two whole days now thinking of what to do about what happened at work. I have called all the people I know who can help and none of them had anything to do about my case. More like no one wants to get involved. You never really know who got your back until you have a problem and I hate that I found out the hard way. Absolutely no one wanted to help or even hear me out. They all said almost the same thing. “Just finish your residency without issues” I want to do that but what the director did to me was so unfair. The way he kicked me out made no sense and he refused to talk to me. Refused to explain properly what I did wrong. As he promised, they wired money into my account but I have sworn to return that money because I don’t need it! Taking their money will be accepting what they did to me.
Danielle“That’s the thing, Danielle, you can’t be pack-less because you already have a pack. Darling, don’t get yourself all worked up for nothing. It’s not like I am really going to steal your life, as you make it seem. You have refused to listen to me. If you just listen to me instead of getting yourself all worked up, then we can actually talk.”I glared at him in anger. He was lying. If he wanted to talk, he would have done it since. He was lying to keep me around and it was so easy to see through his lies. I wanted to hit him again so badly. He makes me a violet person when I am such a sweet soul.“You are not going to talk to me you bastard! You are just going to keep making me seem like a mad person and I won’t let you do that! I have made up my mind! In fact, I am going to move out of the Nightstand clan! I am going to disown that clan, and I am going to move away! You can’t stop me, and you will never have me! crazy man!”I fired at him and continued walking again. I would m
