I stood up sluggishly from the bed as I made my way down the room into the sitting room where my phone was ringing continuously, I couldn't help cursing the caller who had interrupted my sleep.
“ Hello” I called groggily into the phone barely looking at the caller's ID.
“ Nina Miller!" I cringed from the loud voice on the phone as I removed the phone from my ear to check the caller's ID. I rolled my eyes as soon as I saw the name of the caller, if only I knew I would have continued with my sleep instead of disturbing myself.
" Hey, baby girl. How are you? And how's my little one doing?" I called into the phone as soon as I saw that it was Lillian calling.
I scolded myself for forgetting to put a call through to Lillian afte
I stood up abruptly from the bed as soon as I remembered that I had a lot to do today. After yesterday night with Nina, I was finally convinced in my heart that she was the woman for me. Now I needed to say that to her but how?“ What are you thinking about so early in the morning?” I turned my head to see my two naughty brothers standing at the doorway with their hands folded across their chest. Victor was sulking bitterly having been woken up by Vino as he was an early riser just like me.“ Nothing,” I told him as I brought myself to get up from the bed. I walked over to my wardrobe to get my outfit for the day as I needed to go over to the office to sort out a few businesses with the boards“ Nothing?” Vino asked me again, clearly not believing me. I ignored h
I snuggled into the other side of the bed as my hands searched around for Michael. Immediately I saw that the other side of the bed was empty, I stood up abruptly from the bedside shock as I looked around the room.Where could he have gone? I wonder in my mind. Shrugging, I turned to walk into the bathroom to relieve my bowel.I winced as soon as I took a step. I glance down at my body to see that my legs were swollen as it has just been run over by a vehicle ” Damn! That man! ” I cursed loudly, why couldn't he be gentle?.“ Did you say anything?” Michael asked me from the doorway hiding a smirk on his face as he strolled into the room. Both of his hands were inside his red Louis Vuitton shorts with a matching top.I glared at him. I knew he heard
We are currently sitting at “ La Bite ” restaurant owned by the Thompson's, sipping our coffee and waffles. Mrs. Thompson and Mom were going through a food magazine. I could glimpse different varieties of cakes in the magazine. I hope it isn't what I'm thinking.“ So,” Lillian said as I turned to look at Lilian who was sitting beside me with a sleeping Joey in her hands. I raise my eyebrows, silently asking her to go on...“ How does it feel? I mean you'll be getting married tomorrow. Do you feel jittery? ” Lilian asked, her voice a hushed whisper to my ears like she was telling me a secret.I shrug as I sip my now cold coffee “ Nothing ” I replied Lilian gasp as she looked at me with shock in her eyes. I was surprised at her expression. Was I supposed to feel anything
“ Nina”I turned as soon as I heard my name being called. Lillian walked into my room in her white nighties glaring up at me. I don't know why she was angry. I was not doing anything wrong. I only stood at the window gazing out at the clear sky wishing for a clearer future from now onward.“ You haven't bathed? It's six am already” Lillian called to me, opening my closet to get my dress and shoes out.“ Get your ass into the bathroom this minute” She screamed up at me while she stood with her hands on her waist glaring at me seeing that I wasn't making any effort to compile.I rolled my eyes at her as I stepped away from the window and strolled to meet her where she stood in front of my wardrobe” Remind me again why you are
“ Deborah”I paused as soon as I heard Nina call that woman's name. I was on my way back from chatting with Vino and Victor who were leaving for Italy as they have pending issues to get to.I was about to come back to take Nina to the hotel where the reception was when I heard her whisper that name. I knew Nina wouldn't ever call her if she was not here which was why I moved closer to her and pulled her close to me seeing that she was shivering from fear...“ It's okay, Tesoro. I'm here now” I whispered to her as I hugged her close while kissing her hair with my eyes closed. I hate it when she's so afraid. Damn! That stupid Private Investigator that couldn't get a job done. After paying a huge sum of money to him, he couldn't find me a woman, just a woman in the same country we were in.
I crouched down on the thick grasses as soon as I felt Nina's eyes on me. Damn! That stupid girl!! I scowled in my mind. Even though I was in a disguise of a black long flowing gown and a black hijab. Shielding my face, I knew that Nina was smart to know that it was me. No sense human would be hiding under a shrub tree, away from the rest of the wedding guests but I just needed to catch a glimpse of my love. My man, Michael__ Speaking of him, I felt my heartbeat escalated in my chest even before I saw him walking down the cathedral to the front of the church dressed in a navy blue tuxedo where Nina's stood her face frozen and pale. I scowled as soon as I saw Michael envelop her in a hug. I was so angry that I was tempted to kidnap her, the second time and make sure she died for real but I had to remind myself that this wasn't just my revenge anymore. This was
I groaned as I tried to roll off the bed but I couldn't move my legs as it was entangled in Michael's hard pelvis. I tried to free my legs, to stand up but his grips on me tightened, I couldn't help rolling my eyes at him even in his unconsciousness, he was scared of losing me.“ Tsk! Like I'm going anywhere with his ring on my finger” I scoffed at his antics before trying to free his legs from mine.Gosh! I so hate you right now, Michael Thompson, I muttered to myself as I was dying to relive my bowel but this man just won't let me.“ Michael” I tapped him lightly on his bare chest while gulping nervously as I took a swift dab at my now dried lips. Even in his sleep, my husband was hot...No, Nina. You can think about that now. I chastised
“ Deborah” I called slowly to her as I gulped nervously. I watched as she took a slow step closer to me. I unconsciously step back in fear. What was she trying to do to me? And how did she find me?“ You can't escape from me, Nina” Deborah smirked as soon as she saw fear cross my face briefly before it disappeared.“ I'm not scared of you, Deborah” I glared at her trying to be brave but it was just a facade. I was dying inside while praying that Michael would come to find me soon.“ Really?” Deborah replied as she swift her head to the left to watch me with a smile on her face“ Then why are you sweating under the air con”I ignored her as I turned to pick up my phone which was lying on the sink. I badly wanted t
