View MoreNathanI leave my bestie’s mansion, conflicted. Will Amari be angry if I keep this from her? I am trying to protect her. That is my responsibility.“You are troubled.”I turn to find Isaac studying me. I did not even see him approaching.“Are you okay?” he asks, and I tell him my dilemma. “I don’t want your advice,” I say when he opens his mouth, and he laughs. I know exactly what he is going to say. He shrugs and still speaks. “Okay. Don’t tell her. It is for her own good. Who can be angry at that? She will love you and be so happy that you kept her in the dark in the name of trying to protect her,” he says with a straight face. He is using reverse psychology on me, and it is working. He knows Amari very well, even better than me. They have been best-friend since they were five-years old.“Fine, you win!” I snap and storm away. I can hear him laughing behind me.“Babe?” Amari asks when I walk in. I lead her to the lounge and pull her to sit on my lap. She raises her eyebrows. I h
Nathan“You and your bestie evaded Leah’s privacy, and now you are being manipulative,” Amari accuses when I refuse for her to leave our bed. One thing I know about my wife is that she can’t resist me. “I had good intensions. Leah is like a sister to me. I did not want her getting hurt like Paul did,” I tell her. That is the honest truth. I still feel guilty about how Jane hurt Paul. I was the target, and she used him to get to me. I swore to protect my family and friends with everything I have. “Fine. Can we get out of bed now?” she gives in. I study her. She gave in too fast. “You can’t take it back,” I tell her, and she rolls her eyes at me. “Oh, I forgot that my wife can never stay mad at me. She loves me too much,” I add and crack up when she shakes her head. I still can’t believe that I was so fortunate to end up with this woman. Ten years later, I wrap my arms around my heavily pregnant wife as we watch our kids play around the estate. I hold her hand and lead her to the
NathanIt is Christmas morning. I plant a kiss on my gorgeous wife and get our princess on a stroller. “What?” Amari asks when she catches me ogling her. I wrap my arms around her waist and pull her to me. She wraps her arms around my neck and gazes at me with those beautiful eyes. “I am counting my blessings. You are my life, woman.”She blushes and kisses me while Pearl claps her hands excitedly on the stroller, making us laugh. I break off the kiss when my manhood reacts. At this rate, I will not go on a walk with my princess and bestie and my wife won’t be doing any cooking. She laughs when I push her away. “Have fun,” she says with her melodic voice. Lord, I am blessed. Mrs Gail is teaching Pearl to call her BGM the whole way. I can already hear the complaints I will have to address at the communal Christmas lunch we will be having today. “That’s, my little Precious Pearl!” my bestie beams. “I am the best god mother. Your BGM,” she adds, and I don’t bother stopping her. S
AmariIt is a day for the choir competitions and Leah is driving all of us crazy. “We can’t lose. That is not an option, she tells us for the zillion times. All this bragging to the other choirs is catching up with her now. It does not help that Mrs Gail’s fans are here in their numbers. For the first time since these competitions started, we have media covering everything. That is Nathan’s effect. “I told you to expel Nathan and Mrs Gail from the choir,” I tell her, intentionally provoking the two besties to hopefully take Leah’s mind off the competition. “Have you heard my alto and my bestie’s baritone?” Mrs Gail responds as expected. I see all the choir members exchange amused looks. They know whats coming. “We are the whole vibe, my bestie and I. Many people can only dream to be around us, let alone sing with us. You are all so fortunate. It will help you to realise that there would be no choir without us.”“Oh really?” I ask. “Maybe we should all quit and leave you and your b
