AMELIA "We need to talk," I said glumly. "Sounds serious?" said Damian, arching his brow. I gestured impatiently for him to seat and sank into a chair myself. I had come home straight from the bakery. There had been no point in me staying there. I wasn't able to concentrate anyway. "What is going on?"he prompted. "It's my mother. She called." "Oh..." Even in this situation, I couldn't help but see the humour. Damian and I had never really talked about our respective families. He had told me just what was necessary to know about his family in case someone, maybe a reporter, started asking me questions about him that I was supposed know. The subject of my mother had never come up. All Damian knew about her was that she was alive. "And you're amused because..." I arranged my face into an expression of seriousness. I had not even realised I had been smiling a little. "Nothing," I said. "I've just been thinking about how we are going to handle this." "You seem to ha

AMELIA My mother and I regarded each other for a moment. Then I leaned forward for a hug. She let me hold her. When I pulled away, she was smiling a little, and I knew I was on my way to being forgiven, though I wasn't there yet. "I can't say that you don't look good," she said grudgingly. "Welcome, mom and-" I felt a strong arm curve briefly around my waist. "You must be Mrs Dorothy. I have heard so much about you from Amelia," Damian lied smoothly. Damian took her hand, kissed it as my mother gave me a reproachful look. "You have? Well, my daughter has not told me anything at all about you." Damain turned the full force of his smile on her. She blinked. It was eerie how he was so good at this. "There will be time to get to know me, I'm sure. Please, come in. No don't worry. I'll carry your luggage." He allowed us precede him into the house while he carried her suitcase. He took it into the room we had prepared for her while I showed her into the living room and

AMELIA "I am asking you a question, Amelia," said my mother impatiently. "Explain these." She tossed a handful of the condoms on the sofa. I licked my lips nervously. I still couldn't think of what to say. Why had I even allowed her to do Damian's laundry in the first place? I should have known that if there was something dodgy to be found in his room, my mother would be the one to find it. I took a deep breath and tried again to speak. "Mom, I-" What could I say? That Damian probably still used the condoms to sleep with other women? That some of the condoms were given to him as a sample by someone? I probably would have gone with the later explanation, wild though it seemed, if not for the fact that Damian probably had a lifetime's supply of condoms in his drawer. "I know exactly what's going on here?" said my mother with a very disapproving look. My heart plummeted to somewhere in the region of my stomach. I felt beads of sweat pop out on my upper lip despite the fact

AMELIA "Mom?" I looked from her to Damian who had a half amused, half exasperated expression on. They had come driven home together. "Did you run into each other on your way home?" "No." My mother came to sit beside me. "I went to see Damian in his office. It's a really nice place by the way. Did I mention that?" "You did," said Damian. "And... why exactly did you go there, mum?" I said. My mother was not one to make visits without a purpose. Had she gone to confront him about the condoms? That was definitely something she could and would do. She frowned at me. "To hear you talk, one would think I was trespassing." "I didn't say that," I countered. "What's wrong in going to see my son-in-law?" "Mum-" She threw her hands up. "Okay fine. I also stopped by to give him something I felt you two needed." When I looked blank, Damian explained. "It's a herbal drink. She says drinking it should increase my chances of getting you pregnant." I groaned, passed my hand

DOROTHY Who was it? I thought as I saw the figure flit out into the grounds. I leaned out the window to get a better look. The figure was suddenly illuminated by the headlamps of the car which had suddenly come on. Before the lights winked out, I saw Damian clearly. Something about his bowed head, his quick movement made me feel like he wanted to leave the house unnoticed. It was almost midnight! Where could be going off to? I stood there in front of bedroom window, undecided. The need to know what he was up to decided me. I hurried downstairs, grabbed a car key from the little tray on the dining table. Damian's car was almost at the gates by the time I got outside. I pressed the button on the keys until one of the cars beeped. I got into that one and going after him. Luck was on my side. There was still some traffic on the roads. It wasn't as deserted as I thought it would by by this hour. I was able to stay behind a black sedan all the way to the turning to a nearby buildi

DAMIAN "Another woman?" I mouthed the words, my mind blank and confused with no idea of what Dorothy was talking about. And then it hit me. Dorothy had somehow known that I had gone to see Lora. But how? I was sure that no one had followed me there. Or was I? I had actually been on edge and worried after Lora's text message that I hadn't actually been looking to see if I was being followed. But then again, why the hell would someone have wanted to follow me in the first place? "Answer the question, Damian," Dorothy demanded. "You were at a motel room with another woman. Or do you deny it?" I forced myself to meet her angry eyes. "No," I said quietly. Amelia shot me a panicked look. I tried to assure her with my eyes that I had the situation well in hand. Dorothy drew herself up to her full height. "What nerve! You stand there without a hint of remorse and proudly say-" "Please, calm down, Dorothy. I admitted to going into the motel room to see a woman. I didn't admit

DAMIAN I bit my lips to stifle a groan. My fingers unconsciously massaged my temples where I felt a headache building. The sound of rustling paper made me look up. My secretary had merely paused to turn over another page of the report she was reading. Beside her, two men, members of my staff were hanging on to her every word, making notes in the margin of the documents in front of them. My secretary saw me looking in some dismay at the remaining pages of the report she had yet to read. "Should I... go on, sir?" she asked after a moment's hesitation. "Yes. Please do," I replied. The men who had looked startled at the idea that I could abruptly call off the meeting that hadn't even lasted for up to twenty minutes, now looked expectantly at her as she once more began droning on about the project. I fought to keep my expression bright and alert, like everyone else, but I found myself spacing out once more. Damn! But I was so goddamn tired. Lately, I had been even under more

AMELIA I was still basking in a postcoital glow when the sound of a door closing made me thoroughly wake up. I sat up. Beside me, Damian stirred. "What's the matter?" he said. His words punctuated by yawns which he tried to stifle unsuccessfully with one hand. "It's my mother. I think she's back. She went on the blind date Anton planned for her today," I explained further. "Oh." Interest flared in Damian's eyes. He sat up quickly and began hunting about for his clothes. "We have to go find out how it went. I'm curious." "I'm very curious," I said. I pulled on my clothes. Together Damian and I went downstairs. We met my mother just returning to the living room from the kitchen. We exchanged greetings, and then I could rein in my curiousity no longer. "Tell me, mum. How did it go?" I asked. She plonked down on the sofa. I perched on the sofa close to hers, and Damain settled down beside me. "It was..." She hesitated and shrugged. "It went okay
