After work, I took a warm bath to cool my nerves, Anabeth was extra bitchy after this mornings exchange and work was never ending, Thank God for Melissa. After my bath, I picked out an outfit for dinner with Antonio which was a long burgundy dinner gown with a high slit starting from the thigh. I know I was looking for trouble by picking this dress but, who's to blame? Certainly not me.
Dinner was scheduled for 8:00 and it was 6:30 so, I just decided to watch tv for a while since I wasn't going to wear much makeup on.
When I felt like it was time, I got my lazy ass up from the couch and started to get ready and I was done in no time, as usual, I looked good, too good for a rude mf.
When I got to the living room, my phone started to ring, Antonio was calling, he's probably here.
"Cara, I have my driver at the address you texted me" he said, he's deep accented voice causing me to shiver.
"Okay" I simply said and hung up. I grabbed my purse, locked my door and left for dinner.
"Good evening miss. My name is Leo and I'll be your driver for the night. Sir has instructed me to bring you back to his house" the polite driver I recognized from the night I met Aliya said. I think Aliya called him "Leh-Leh" and I found it funny.
Wait hold up!
"To his house?" I asked
"Yes miss" he confirmed
"Please call me Sewa" I told him and he nodded
So I wore this good dress only to have dinner at his house?
I grabbed my phone and texted him immediately
Dinner at your house?
He texted back immediately
I knew you wouldn't like that. It was only a joke. He's not bringing to to my house.
Ha ha ha! Very funny. I was about to go and change my dress.
I didn't reply him though, I can't believe he'd mess with me like that.
And the car started moving, it didn't take long and we arrived at our destination, Leo opened the car door for me and I strolled into the restaurant.
I went to the register and asked of Antonio and I got someone to escort me to my table.
"Thank you" I told the kid and he was visibly blushing.
"You're dismissed" Antonio spat at him and the poor boy scurried away.
"That was mean" I pointed out.
"I think having that dinner at home would've been a much better choice" he said huskily, his voice deeper than it had been on the phone; when I looked up at him, he's face was in a frown, looking around the restaurant.
"Can they stop looking already?" He asked rhetorically
I rose my head to look at who he was referring to and boy was I stunned.
There was a table filled with wall street men in impressive suits and all four of them had their eyes fixed on me, one of the men, the hottest one at the table winked at me then but his lower lip.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing?" Antonio asked
"I'm not doing anything" I replied casually
"This was a mistake"he muttered but I heard him and I just had enough of this man.
I gently stood up from my sit, grabbed my purse and went outside the restaurant to order an Uber that'll take me home.
Antonio didn't even call me back or make any attempt to follow me and that just only pissed me off more.
Who even does that?
This was a mistake? Tell me about it.
"I promise you if you come back inside, you won't have to have dinner with him" I heard an unfamiliar voice say behind me.
I turned around to see who just spoke and it was the hot guy that winked at me, he's jet black hair, styled to perfection and that suit on him, showed that he had a great body.
I smiled and shook my head
"No thank you"
"I'm Noah" he said
"Sewa" I told him
"Do you really want to waste this ni-"
"I think that's enough" Antonio's voice cut him short.
"Step away from her" Antonio said calmly.
"Make me" Noah challenged, turning to Antonio.
Oh boy!
"Alight! It was nice meeting you Noah, I think your friends are waiting for you" I told Noah, hoping he'd get the hint.
He gave me a hurtful smile and nodded his head and walked away from me; when he was passing though, he bumped shoulders with Antonio, who was looking at me like he was about to murder me.
"I'm sorry Cara, let's have dinner somewhere else" he said
"I think I'll just go home and order a pizza" I told him.
"Come home with me, we'll order a pizza there" he said, his accented voice flowing with so much grace.
"I don't know, I have work tomorrow" I told him.
"We can go to yours and get your work clothes and other things you'd need, please Cara" he pleaded.
How could I say no to him?
"Okay fine" I agreed
"I hope you let me get this dress off you" he came close and whispered in my ears. Fuck!
He grabbed my waist, pulling me closer to him.
"Hmm? What do you say Cara?" He whispered, I don't think this man knows what his accented voice does to me.
"I'll think about it" I told him, a small smile playing on my lips; he leaned in and bit my lower lip, letting a gasp escape from my lips.
I bit his lower lip also, his lips parted, giving me more access to his upper lip then, I started to kiss him, pulling his lips and biting it as I kissed him, he liked it because, he grabbed my waist tighter, pulling me impossibly closer to him, letting me feel the bulge in between his legs.
"Cara if you continue doing that, what happens next will be all on you" he told me huskily, he sounded so out of breath and I didn't even kiss him for long.
"Let's get out of here" I told him and like magic, Leo appeared in front of us.
Sewa's POV Six months later I woke up late again, despite all my alarms. I had just woken up, but yet I felt like I hadn't slept for hours; I guess my baby girl likes to sleep. "Well, you have to stop making me sleep so much madam, it's making me look bad," I rubbed my huge stomach. I got up from the big bed, the new room was empty, I guess Antonio had gone to work already. I sighed. Antonio was the reason I wanted to wake up early to at least make him breakfast or takeout for lunch as I had been too lazy to do anything, just waking up, demanding for food, then sleeping. Antonio never complained, not even after a very stressful day at work. He would always come back from work and attend to me like I was the tired one, well I guess I was;
ANTONIO'S POV I watched as Sewa laid unconscious on the hospital bed, looking very peaceful but at the same time very fierce; she had a few cuts on her face, but she still looked very beautiful. Tears came to my eyes as I watched her; all this was my fault. Everything had been my fault from the beginning, if I had just listened to her when she warned me about Samantha, we wouldn't have been here. I let my eyes run over the length of her body, stopping at her stomach. I placed my hand over her stomach, letting the tears flow freely from my eyes. I had been too busy crying my eyes out while letting Sewa go through a worse pain. I had no idea pain could make a person deaf and blind. I had been sitting there, but I couldn't make out what was happening, I couldn't move; not until I heard Diego crying and tugging at at my shirt that I came back to earth and saw what Samantha was doing to her. I was so angry that pushed her away using my fist.
"Samantha?" Antonio called dangerously. I almost feared for what Antonio would do to her. Almost."I didn't do anything to him, I swear Antonio, you have to believe me. I wanted to tell you that he was getting bullied at school, but I didn't know how to say it," Samantha cried. I got up, walked to her and slapped her across her stupid face."You don't have a conscience, do you?" I asked her. She was quiet."Say the truth or I will, and if I do, i will deliver each word with a slap until I'm done saying all the horrible things you've done!" I threatened. That seemed to get Samantha's attention. I guess she didn't like my slaps across her face."I'm a horrible person Antonio," Samantha cried, looking down at her finger nails. Why was she trying to talk like she didn't enjoy doing what she did?I tur
"Samantha, what the hell is that noise?" Antonio's thunderous voice came in. The sound came from the top of the stairs."Why don't you come check out for yourself," Aaliyah yelled back. There was a pause, and then footsteps. While my eyes were fixed on the stairs, I didn't know Samantha had gotten up. I felt pressure pull my beanie from my head, then pull at my braids. I lost my balance and fell to the floor, but I wasn't going to give Samantha the satisfaction of beating me up. While her hands were still fixed on my hair, I grabbed her hand and turned around so I was facing her, I let one hand free from her hand that I grabbed and I sent a punch to her chest. Samantha fell backwards and I didn't falter. I ran to her, sat on her stomach and started my assault. Delivering punches across her face as imagined her putting her hands on Diego. She must've felt great, beating the boy to a fucking pulp, she must've loved it anytime he begged her to stop. I got angrier and my punches
I got dressed in a pair of black leggings and a black crop top, coupled with a black jacket. I braided my hair in four cornrows that night before, so I put a beanie over it, grabbed my phone and stepped out of my apartment."Took you long enough," Aaliyah smiled at me, leaning on her black Mercedes Benz. She was dressed almost the same as I was; she had black leggings, a jumper and a big black shirt which I suspected belonged to Harry, over her shoulders."We look like we're going to the gym," Aaliyah tried to crack a joke. I smiled at her for the effort but I couldn't bring myself to laugh to show any other expression apart from the smirk across my lips."Let's go," I nodded at her and we got in, driving straight to Antonio's house. Thank heavens it was a Saturday and there was nowhere Antonio would be if not his love
Aaliyah and I had a plan, where Aaliyah would go to the house and use seeing Antonio as cover but what she's actually doing is looking after Samantha and Diego to see if Samantha was doing something horrible to the boy. It wasn't much of a great plan given that Samantha pretends a lot but i knew it would work because Aaliyah and Samantha never agreed on the same thing, and it would be hard for Samantha to pretend to Aaliyah; Aaliyah see's right through her bullshit."Hell yeah! Let's do it! And I hope I catch her doing something so this time she goes to prison and rot forever," Aaliyah had said with so much determination."I gave Diego your phone number and mine, so if he calls you, it means there's something horrible going on," I told her. Aaliyah nodded, she was ecstatic that I was giving such an important task as she called it.I leaned into my office seat, letting out a worried sigh. It was almost 5pm, but I didn't have the heart
