A FEW NIGHTS LATER
Terrence was asleep when he heard someone let out a scream. He sat up immediately and saw that Gabby was no longer by his side. He looked towards the bathroom, the door was opened and the light was on.
He set the duvet aside and walked as fast as his legs could carry him to the bathroom. What he saw made his world crumble; Gabby was on the floor. He rushed to her and raised her head which he put on his lap.
"Gabby, are you okay?" Terrence panicked,
Gabby slowly opened her eyes, she brushed her hands through her inner thigh and showed Terrence. Blood; she was bleeding.
"Ss...save..m..my..baby, Terrence." She said weakly as she gradually closed her eyes.
Terrence lifted her in his arms and ran out of the bathroom. He got his car keys and headed to the car immediately. He carefully placed Gabby in the back seat before running over to the driver's seat and started the car. Thank goodness Sophie wasn't at home with
A MONTH LATERA very huge smile found its way to Terrence's face as he noticed something Gabby had not yet noticed."What are you smiling at?" Gabby chuckled as she stood across the bed in her shorts and PJ shirt.Terrence went over to where she was standing and led her to the front of the mirror. Gabby was at the front while Terrence was behind her. He raised her shirt a little and Gabby screamed, covering her face with her hands which made Terrence laugh out loud.Gabby's baby bump was now visible, you can even tell from afar that she was pregnant."Stop laughing at me." Gabby groaned as she playfully hit him on his chest."I'm really happy, sweets; our baby is showing itself already." Terrence grinned."But my stomach wasn't like this last night," Gabby said as she lovingly caressed her belly with her right hand."I know, It's a miracle what a woman's body can do" Terrence placed his hand on Gabby's bump."How did you
THE DUE DATE-------- HER BIRTH"I can't do this anymore Terrence; It is so painful," Gabby said in tears."You can, Gabby. You are the strongest woman I know. I can see her head. Just a few more pushes and you will be holding her in your arms." Terrence encouraged.It kills Terrence to see Gabby in so much pain with him unable to do anything rather than standing there and holding her hand, whispering encouraging words into her ear.God bless all our Mothers!And Yes, Sophie was right all along. They later found out they would be having a girl and Sophie was very thrilled. She insisted that she wants the baby to share her room with her but Terrence and Gabby refused.They decided the baby will stay in their room for the first few weeks of its birth and will be transferred to the nursery later on. Then maybe when the baby clocks one, she can now share a room with Sophie.Sophie was grumpy at first but later agreed to t
IN LOVE WITH MY DRIVERSYNOPSISMelinda Davis, a soon to be divorcee, Who swears never to give love a chance again, broke that rule when she falls madly in love with her driver.........PROLOGUEImmediately after her College and a Master degree, Mselinda Davis was taught the ropes and skills of how to run and cope in the business world. Being an only child and heir to her Parents' empire, Mel had no choice but to take over as the CEO as soon as her father retired.Melinda was the apple eye of her parents and they loved her so much. She was the miracle Raymond and Michelle waited for all their lives. Raymond and Michelle Davis were Melinda's parents. Melinda was conceived in the later years of their marriage. Raymond was 48 and Michelle just clocked 40 when they gave birth to Melinda.Melinda brought so much joy to the lives of her parents, right from the moment she was born. Raymond and Michelle were so proud of the way she handl
Melinda had been avoiding her driver, Alexander, for almost a week now. She was so embarrassed about what happened between them the last time and could not even bring herself to look him in the eye. Melinda's mind kept on flashing back to that night but she kept on convincing herself that it was a mistake that never should have happened as they were both caught up in that moment.Melinda was attracted to Alexander from the very first day he was hired as her driver. She just shrugged it off thinking it was a short-term crush that would not last for more than a week.Unfortunately, seven days became weeks and weeks became months and Mel came to realize that, the more she was pushing Alexander away, the more she was falling for him. But she refused to give in to the attraction.Even though Alexander feels the same way and has made several approaches towards Melinda, She still refuses to admit what she feels for him. Alexander knew Mel was very much attracted
Melinda barely had any sleep last night. She kept on thinking about Alexander. Maybe Rhoda was right. Alex could be a different guy. But she was scared to give in to him. She didn't want to get hurt again.She could not even bring herself to reply to Alex's text message yesterday. She kept typing and erasing for like eight times. She didn't know what to type so she decided she was going to apologize to him in person, today.Melinda had dressed up for work, She just finished having breakfast when the sound of the doorbell came through. She stood up from the dining table, straightened her clothes, and walked towards the door.She opened the door and saw Alexander standing on the other side, looking more handsome than she could recall yesterday. Melinda did not know how long she kept staring at him until she was brought out of her trance by Alex's voice."Good morning Miss Davis," He greeted.Melinda didn't know why but she fel
Melinda woke up quite late on Saturday morning after which she made herself a cup of coffee and decided to do some office work at home. She didn't even know that time had gone until she decided to take a break by checking her social media account. After that, she decided to take a shower and go over to her parents' house to surprise them and maybe head to Desourire's place later on.Melinda was satisfied with her look once she saw her reflection in the mirror. She was about to put on her shoes when the doorbell rang. Mel was surprised as she wasn't expecting anyone. Nevertheless, she went ahead to open the door and came face to face with the last person she wanted to see, Frank.Before she could even ask him what he was doing at her apartment, Frank bagged in."Heyy. Don't you have any manners? How dare you enter my Apartment without me asking you to come in." Mel shouted at him after she shut the door behind her."Oh, I see. Is that how you now talk to y
When Alexander noticed Mel had fallen asleep on his lap, He carefully got up with her in his arms. She snuggled more into his chest, her hand went around his neck, holding up to him as if her life depended on it. That gesture alone made a huge smile creep to Alex's face.Alex went straight to Melinda's room and laid her on the bed. He covered her with the duvet after which he kissed her forehead. Then he stepped out of the room quietly, shutting the door behind him.Alexander glanced at his wristwatch and saw that it was almost dinner time so he decided to surprise Mel with some food. Once he got to the kitchen, he reached for an apron and got started with his cooking..................................................Melinda opened her eyes slowly and saw herself on her bed. A small smile crept to her lips when she remembered she had just confessed her feelings to Alex. She liked Alex very much and had decided to give him a try.Melinda got up fro
Melinda was used to spending Friday evenings with either Nate or Desourire. But today, she had ditched both of them. She gave them an excuse about having some work to do so she could go on a date with Alexander.Alex and Mel's relationship has been going on well and Melinda has been enjoying every bit of it. They have managed to keep their relationship a secret but Mel knew at some point, she would have to tell people who were close to her. Most especially now that Desourire had started suspecting something. Till then she wanted to enjoy things privately with Alex.Melinda and Alexander have not gone farther than kissing and a little bit of smooching.Seeing that Alex would be here any minute from now, Mel went for a quick shower and dressed up in something very simple and she looked so gorgeous as well as comfortable. She had put on one of her favourite black dresses.A few minutes later, the doorbell rang and Mel rushed to open it. Standing right there
