Rafael sat in his car watching her work, how could she choose a space like that to work? She looked so beautiful while concentrating on her work, he had been here for over thirty minutes and he still couldn't gather the courage to get out of the car and go talk to her, she stood up and went to the enclosed part of the studio, he had gone to her gallery which he knew was already running from the photo he saw of her with that dude, he still wasn't over it and still felt like strangling the guy even though he didn't do anything to him, apart from the fact that he was the first person to use the gallery and she was boldly showing him off, she was also here at his studio, her gallery was way bigger and has a bigger studio where she could work, but when he had gone to see her there, she hadn't been there, he got her location from her receptionist who didn't have a hard time telling him because she knew he was her ex-husband, well at least he got the information he needed but then he found o

"He was just leaving,"He heard Nicole say. No, no way was he going to let her get rid of him like that."I am not leaving, I am here to talk to you,"He replied raising his voice to make sure they both heard him, the two of them shared a glance that made him feel like an outsider, he shook off the feeling, waiting for the dude to do the needful and get the fuck out, the man seems to take the hint."I will let you both talk, you can lock up after you Nicole,""No, Aron, you don't have to leave, we were going to leave together since your car is faulty,"Nicole said, she had concern in her voice, she was concerned about the dude, he hated it here, hated the feeling of jealousy that built up even more inside him."Don't worry, I can take a cab, looks like he has a lot to say,"Aron, Rafael hated the name, said and touched Nicole's hair, Rafael's hand-formed into a fist, the fucking dude didn't stop there, he pulled her closer, and Rafael could only watch."Are you sure about this Aron?"

Nicole, watched through the window to make sure he left before the came out of the inner part of the studio where she had escaped to, yes it was an escape, she could barely process that he has been here wanting to talk to her, she hadn't even seen him coming in, hadn't even heard his car sound, imagine how her heart had leaped when he had called her name, she had thought she was hallucinating or having a dream, she had blinked to be sure he was the one standing there looking so handsome when she had come back to her senses, she had gone to him wondering what brought him there and how he knew she would be at Aron's studio, how did he even know Aron's studio in the first place? She had all these questions to ask but when he had looked at her, she had forgotten, forgotten that she had to ask."Stop it, time to go home,"She said getting closing the windows and doors, she willed herself not to think about their not so serious conversation, she thought he had found out about the baby and t

When she got home, she didn't meet anybody, she suspected they would all be in their rooms and went to hers too, she took a bath and changed into comfortable nighties, after which she brought out her laptop to continue with the stretch she had been working on when Rafael had shown up, this particular stretch had a deeper meaning to her than all her other works, this was the continuation of something she started a while ago but hadn't been able to complete because of the unfortunate incident that had happened, she finally could complete the maternity art series that she started when she had been pregnant with her little angel who had gone back to heaven even before she was born, of course she wasn't yet at this step yet but she wanted to start the work again and do a better job at it, she already had the first three months and was thankful she hadn't done away with it when she had wanted to, that was thanks to Grace, who had told her she might want it back some say and that day finally

"What did you say?"She asked in a surprise and disbelieving tune."I said I am sorry,"He repeated, he could do this much, he could apologize to Natalie because of Nicole, not just because of Nicole but for himself and Natalie too."Why are you sorry? What are you saying sorry for Rafael?""For everything,""Everything? What's everything?"She asked."For everything that happened, for blaming you blindly for my kid's death and also for getting you arrested,"He replied."To be fair, Rafael you didn't blame me blindly, as much as my sister would beat me up for saying I am to be blamed for what happened, that's the truth and that's why I don't blame you for hating me and wanting me to go to jail,""Natalie,"He called, she put up her hand."No, let me finish Rafael, I know, I didn't push Natalie that day, it was an accident, we both didn't know it would get to that but as much as u didn't push her I did in every other way, my actions and everything that lead to that moment did and ever

"You won't believe who came to see me today,"Natalie announced as she entered Nicole's room, Nicole dropped her cream and stared expectantly at her sister"Who is it? The president of the United States of America?""Really? You think the president will come and see me?""Yeah, you are pretty famous around here,""It's not the president and you are more famous than I am, your personal IG has over ten million followers and the one you use for art is at twenty-six, I am in all at seven,""That doesn't count, anyway who is it?""Guess, you won't believe,""I am not good at guessing, since it's not the president, I don't know who it might be,""Rafael,"She said."Rafael? Who is that?"She asked, she knew a Rafael but that won't be who she was talking about right?"Are you kidding me? I am talking of your Rafael, your husband, and Little's daddy,""What? Why?"Nicole asked in shock."I don't know about the what, but about the why, he wanted us to talk,""That's what he told me yesterday t

When Nicole woke up the next morning, she expected to have morning sickness again which she was kind of used to already but when she woke up, she was perfectly okay, she got up, went to the restroom to wash up expecting it to hit her anytime soon, but she got ready for the day and still, she was okay, usually it last time when she woke up to about an hour after she that but today, there was nothing, she didn't throw up, neither did she feel faint, in fact, the felt like she had more than enough energy, it was surprising but she was kind of relief even though she knew it was too early to be happy."Juliet loved the work Nicole,"Her sister said entering her room without knocking, she inhaled Natalie's perfume which would have irritated her before but it was okay now, to be sure, she moved close to Natalie sniffing her."Huh, are we okay? Should I call the doctor?"Natalie asked moving back from her with a weird facial expression."Nah, I am fine, I am just checking to make sure my morn

Rose?"She asked the lady at the reception."Good morning ma'am,""Nicole, my name is Nicole, you can call me that,"She corrected, she wasn't ready to be addressed as ma'am or ma, she hated to be addressed like that."Who is it that is already receiving flowers? We are still in January, isn't it too early for gifts?"Nicole asked pointing at the huge bouquet of flowers."Ma'am, I mean, Nicole, they are yours, it was left here for you,"She responded, Nicole was taken aback by her response, who would send her flowers on a Monday morning?
