Tessa took a cab and after a few minutes drive she got to her grandmother's house. It was Mara's day off from work and she came around to wait for Tessa.Tessa enveloped her grandmother in a warm hug."You look so good Tessa" Mrs Taylor complimented her.Tessa smiled and replied "You don't look bad yourself. Thank you Mara for taking good care of her" "What are friends for? She's like a mother to me too, so it is also my job to take care of Granny" Mara retorted, pulling Tessa into a hug."I have missed you T," Mara said, patting her back softly. Eleanor had placed Mrs. Taylor on an extra salary for as long as Tessa lived with them. So everything she needed was provided for her. She was able to take care of the bills around the house with the tips she got from the Winstons.They all chatted for a very long time, trying to catch up with the things they've missed. A few hours later, Tessa's granny returned to her room to get some rest while Tessa and Mara continued with their discus

"You again? Are you following me?" Tessa asked, smiling at him. She was obviously tipsy."Let's just say it's a coincidence, Tessa. I'm glad to see your pretty face again" Alexander said, smiling back at her."So what is Aaron's wife doing at a club alone?" He asked as a smirk crossed his lips. His eyes trailed her body and he lost it, he pictured her naked and on his bed. The thought of fucking her senselessly engulfed his mind. He was surely going to do anything to make her scream his name."I'm not alone Alexander. I'm here with my best friend Mara" She said pointing at Mara who smiled at Alexander and brought out her hand for a handshake. "Nice meeting you, Mara," Alexander said, taking Mara's hand."Can I have a dance with you Tessa? Of course, if you don't mind" Alexander proposed. Tessa was about to decline when Mara interrupted her saying, "Of course she wouldn't mind"Meanwhile, Aaron was at his office earlier when Dylan walked in. "Hey, man. You're still working?" Dylan s

"Of course, that's not too much to ask for T. But what if he actually cares? I saw the hurt in his eyes last night as he carried you out of the club. You know he punched Alexander and the look on his face was unfathomable. He had a look of hurt and disappointment when he looked at you and grabbed your hands. I have to stop here before you end up saying I'm imagining things" Mara added and chuckled. "Right, I was going to say that. Aaron was just disappointed seeing me at the club and with Alexander. You needed to see the way he glares at me like I'm one bag of trouble, whom he can't wait to get rid of. And speaking of Alexander, Aaron seemed to be in a dispute with him and I don't know what could have transpired between them in the past" Tessa said and let out a deep sigh. "How were you able to get home last night?" Tessa asked as soon as the question came to her mind. "Dylan dropped me off. Aaron asked him to" Mara replied. "He did that?" Tessa asked with eyes wide open. "Yeah,

"I have been married for almost a year and I didn't know he had a sister. I guess there are a lot of things I don't know about my supposed husband" Tessa scoffed inwardly but remained calm.Aaron looked up to his mother, it was as if he had a lot of things to say to her but he ended up saying "Yes, she called this morning, and for the reason you're asking. No, she's not coming back anytime soon, not when…" He paused and said nothing further. Tessa could sense that something was wrong, she just glared at the both of them and remained calm. Dylan didn't seem surprised, it was as if he knew what they were talking about, he was family and it was only right that he knew.Eleanor seemed to be bothered by Aaron's words but she gave Aaron a quick gaze and turned to Tessa who seemed confused at the whole situation. She reached out to Tessa's hand and touched her softly."I'm sorry you weren't aware that Aaron had a twin sister after all these months but that's because we hardly talk about he

Aaron watched as he talked. He was sure he has never seen Dylan speak about any lady that way. It was usually a fling for him so this lady has to be really special. "Who is this lady? You need to see your face while you are talking about her. I need to see the lady that had my best friend love-struck like this" Aaron said, curiosity evident on his face.Dylan smirked at Aaron's question. He wasn't sure about his feelings yet but he knew he was drawn to Mara the first day he set his eyes on her at the club. He had trailed her to her house and to the convenience store where she worked several times after he dropped her off that night.His usual self would have made a move on Mara that night he dropped her off from the club and probably get pants down with her but that wasn't the case here. He yawned to get to know more about this lady that intrigued him at first sight even when he only just met her.Dylan growled, getting out of his reverie with a glint of smile plastered on his face.
