***********

Nectar are you coming home anytime soon? Kate asked her husband over the phone. I have a few sessions to run but I could postpone if you need me. Nectar said with a smiling tone.

I can see you smiling, nectar! Don’t get any silly ideas, I just wanted to ask if you would be mad if Drake comes over. Kate said rather with a shaky voice.

Is Drake coming over Kate.? Nectar thought of asking the questions rather.

Yes, he called earlier, I don't know if you would have a problem with that. Kate asked shyly. Kate don't worry, that's fine so far as he doesn’t try anything funny with my wife. Nectar said teasing.

Thank you, I would call him right away. I love you she said and hanged up. Did I just say that, Kate thought and smiled, I hope nectar didn't hear that?

Hey, Hey! Both friends greeted at the door. Kate I hope you are not planning on holding onto the door whiles I freeze out here.

My bad! Come in Drake. Kate finally said to end the weirdness between them. After some few minutes of juice and what's the latest news in town, Drake starts to look around.

Drake you have been looking around for like some minutes now. Are you looking for something or someone? Matt's!! Kate blurted out.

No Kate, just wondering why your husband is not out yet. He tried to cover up the main reason he came there. Nectar is still at work he is aware you are here so don't go all righteous on me right now Drake.

So am still looking into the emails for you, I have some few leads but I just want to be sure first, Drake was saying, just then the door flung open.

“Matt's is that you. Do you need help, Kate shouted to her when she heard her struggling and making noise at the door? Drake’s face colored up.

Katie thanks, I just need to pull this luggage through the door. I am not sure I want to run this errand for your husband again. When he comes tell him he owes me a spa treat.

Will you come in already Kate shouted out again? You have no idea how heavy this is, Matt's said.

She froze at a point when their eyes finally met. She tried to hide either her excitement or displeasure. Drake on the other hand all along was looking back constantly to set eyes on matts, now that he has he wasn’t sure he felt what he wanted to.

Katie, you should have told me you had a visitor so I could stay a little longer at Mom's.

“Drake welcome, enjoy your stay. Matt's said and walked away briskly”. Drake was surprised she spoke to him rather nicely.

Matt's tried to come out so many times but she decided against it until Drake left.

*********
Grams, when are you coming over again! I miss you, Kate said at the other end of the phone. I thought you have all ignored me. Neither your dad nor you call me anymore.

That mother of yours has brainwashed you all. Grand ma Jane spoke angrily over the phone.

Kate was wondering why she was reacting that way, when she sends her enough money every month, more than she even gives to her mom.

Grams, am sorry, been sick lately. The pregnancy has been very difficult for me to handle.
Why don’t you come over for a few weeks, am sure my husband wouldn’t mind Grams, so don’t say no.

I will book your flight and let someone pick you up at the airport. Kate offered. Kate that’s not necessary, I will handle that. Besides I don’t want a classy flight or drive home. I prefer my low class life.

Grams you are hurting me with your words. Is there a problem? Kate asked confused. No my dear, I am just stressed lately. See you soon, Jane said and hurriedly hanged up.

Nectar that was my Grams, I invited her as you asked me to, but she is sounding weird. I have a bad feeling about her visit.

Why do you insist on her coming Nectar? Kate asked finally. Come here, Nectar carried her from the couch where she was laying earlier and dropped her on the bed gently.

Nectar, I know you! If you are up to something, you become all mushy. Now tell me why you want my Grams here or I … she was about to say when nectar interrupted.

You will run off again or beat me up. Why do you always have to be so smart in reading meaning into simple things.

I just thought, whiles you figure out how to handle your mom at least you should have someone around. Since you have decided not to pursue the search for your sister as I asked, why don’t you let your Grams be here for you. Your Dad obviously isn’t a good choice now.

Okay righteous husband, always trying to fix everything, thank you! Can I have my face back now. Kate said and nectar realizing he was still holding her face in his palms gave her a deep Kiss which she broke off after some few minutes.

Goodnight! She covered herself up and nectar getting off the bed to check his phone.

*********

Matt's this food is tasteless, Kate blurted out over breakfast. “Nectar just watched Kate rant out but gave out the don’t stress her out gesture to matts”.

But when Kate had no plans of giving up he had to come in before matts patience will run out.

Kate, am not sure the food is that bad, but then it could be your hormones so now what is this really about. You know you can talk to me. Nectar asked still laughing at her funny attitude earlier.

Matt's was just staring at her food all this time while Kate rants about the taste trying to get her attention. Nectar your sister is avoiding me for some weird reason, she finally confessed.

Ohh that is the real issue here, nectar asked not surprised. He also noticed matts has been distant lately.

Matt's, I think Kate is right, Is there a problem, Boys issue? I could be of much help. Nectar said in a teasing manner. When you two are done reading my mind, then you can clear the table. Matt's said and just walked out on them.

Kate looked nectar in the eyes and they both nodded their heads.

******
Matt's, can I come in please. Kate said knocking faintly on her door. Katie if it’s about earlier, I don’t want to hear it. Matt's said walking to open the door.

Matt's, what is it! Kate asked once she was ushered in. Katie I thought I just told you I have no problems, stop bothering me. Matts said rather harshly.

Kate stood there for a while hoping matts would just give up and talk like she usually does. Fed up herself she just walked to the door and paused.

Is this about Drake? You don’t know how to tell me about the fact that you are interested in him or he has probably slept with you and dumped you. Kate said grabbing matts attention now.

She raised her head slowly and shyly to meet Kate’s gaze.

Matt's buried her face in the pillow to avoid answering Kate. You know what I don’t really mind, so far as you know what you are getting yourself into that’s fine with me. Kate said and walked out.

Nectar, Pearl keeps calling you. Kate who was trying to get her husband’s internet up and running said loudly when nectar quickly rushed out of the shower and snatched the phone form Kate bringing her attention to the image saved with the name.

Matt's woke up in Drakes arm fully spent. She was so sure whatever happened a few hours ago was one feeling she never had with anyone.

This was one great love making. She wants him all to herself. He is her last plane stop. She is willing to give up sleeping around for him, though he isn't his taste and she isnt one who could stick to one man, she liked what she felt earlier.

"Matt's was in her thoughts while dressing up when he spoke up". Look into the side drawer, I think we spent three hours, Drake said checking his bedside clock. I have a cheque written for you.

Would have given you cash but then how much do you take for an hour? Drake was about to say something else when Matt's interrupted.

"Her smile disappeared, she was smiling earlier and probably was going to go for another round but she just felt embarrassed".

Don't insult my dignity Drake, I don't need you to pay me for sleeping with you. Yes this is what I do, and you just slept with me, how different are you from me.

And if I ever needed money, I must as well work for it. I agreed to this because I wanted to satisfy my curiosity. Now I know whatever I feel for you is just a onetime thing.

Drake tried standing up to hold her back, but she would have none of it. “You know what I think I should pay you rather. You look like you need it”.

She opened her handbag, and emptied all the contents on the bed she graced earlier. Took her empty bag and left, not minding what else she might have left behind.

EPISODE 59


Matt's open up, it's Kate! Kate said knocking on Matt's door. “She woke up lazily from her sleep, opening the door, whiles still holding on to it”.

Katie what's it, can't a girl have some a sound sleep. Matt's asked.

He is on the line for you. Kate said handing her phone over. Tell Saint I would have to call later on, will get my phone charged and give him a call. Matt's said without asking who.

Matt's nectar is upstairs, besides I didn't say he was the one. Drake said he was trying to reach you since last night. Matt's quickly snatched the phone away from Kate and waved her to go away.

Kate just stood by the door watching Matt's giggle, smile and whisper on the phone. What's wrong with my friend? What is Drake telling her that she's so happy? Kate thought for a while and told herself not to be jealous.

Matt's when you are done, drop it on the table, I will pick it up, she said and Matt's waved her once more.

Kate are you sure you don't need me driving you for your checkup. You look tired for a fresh morning. Nectar am just not feeling too well. I think I am coming down with something.

Are you sure this has nothing to do with the work load? Nectar asked while checking her wife medically. Nectar this is no time for jokes, I feel a strong headache taking over my mind. Kate complained.

Take this drug for now and wait let me call Sly and reschedule. The thing is you need rest. Nectar advised as a doctor though he knew what her wife is coming down with after checking her earlier. He just needed to distract her form the truth.

Maybe you should drive me there as you suggested because I might not get a free time soon. Kate announced thinking about her work load.

Okay that been said, let me get ready then. Nectar said and rushed down to the shower. “Then a knock came on the door.”

Matt's I know it's you just come in, Kate said when she heard a knock on her door earlier. Kate your phone kept ringing for hours now. You have twelve missed calls. Why are you careless with your phone all the time? Matt's teased.

Some people just don't know when to call a married woman. Kate hissed.

It’s a private number too, well whoever it was have to call back then. “Kate dropped her phone then a message came in which she totally ignored”.

******

Kate are you sure you are fine, you look pale, nectar asked a few minutes into their drive to the hospital whiles behind the steering checking her temperature.

Just then he felt he was losing control of the car. Sensing danger he managed to pull over.

Kate I don't know what is wrong with your car. When last did you service this? He asked. I can't remember but can you get a cab for now am not feeling too good. She said in a faint tone.

Nectar come over, I got a message asking me not to use this car today for my life is in danger. What? Nectar quickly snatched the phone from her. Kate this was from earlier in the morning, how come you didn't check it.

Matt's brought the phone earlier but I just thought whoever was calling me with the private number will call back, I didn't get to check my messages. Kate said confused looking into nectars eyes for answers.

Kate let's deal with this later. The cab is here, let's get going. Will inform my detective on the way. Nectar said.

“Since when do you have a detective? Kate asked faintly”.

Since the last time you were attacked. Nectar said without giving much details. How is that going? I totally forgot I had been attacked. Matt's keep avoiding the topic though, Kate said almost running out of her breath.

Kate save your breathe, we will get there soon, nectar kept checking her out and stealing a few kisses whenever she made to say something.

*****


Sly, is it what I think it is? Nectar asked Doctor Sly in coded words after few hours of getting to the hospital which they both nodded to confirm the fact that they understood each other.

Common Sly, this can't happen, she's three months away, and this will break her. I can't handle another loss. Nectar said confused.

Glover you are not going to lose anyone, besides the pressure on the babies is still in the early stages. Give me the go ahead and I will get the procedure done right away. It’s just thirty minutes Glover.

And you have performed this on other pregnant women yourself several times, so get a grip on yourself. Doctor sly said still waiting for an answer.


Yes, just thirty minutes but the risks and the disadvantages after birth is the issue. And she is not other pregnant women. That’s my wife there Sly. Nectar said so worried.


For now she is stable, sly said and walked away tapping nectar on the shoulder. Sly! Nectar called out. He turned around. Go ahead but do a good job in there. Will find a way to explain the procedure to her later.

“Doctor Sly smiled and walked away”.

He opened the door to Kate's ward gently and tried to steal another kiss when Kate spoke up. Nectar you just have to ask and I will gladly oblige. They both smiled.

What is it, you look disturbed. Kate examined her husband’s face. Oh am fine. He said. Nectar don't try that stunt with me again. Kate said knowing very well there is a problem.

“Now talk, what is it”. She asked now raising herself from the bed.

Kate you remember the last time you collapsed when I suffered that poison attack. Nectar asked being careful with his words.

Yes, Sly told you about our discussion, and he is going to do the procedure right? Kate asked knowing very well what she talked about with Doctor sly the last time Nectar didn't make it to antenatal with her.

Kate it's just thirty minutes, hang in there. I will be here throughout. But why did you not tell me in the first place. Nectar asked.


“I knew Sly would tell you whether I asked him to or not”. Kate confessed.


And probably I knew you would be treating me like an invalid. Kate smiled after nectar playfully touched her chin.

Then the hospital door opened. Glover we are ready. You coming right. Sly asked nectar.

Why not! He gave a fake smile and walked towards the procedure room following his wife who was being wheeled away. Is she awake now Matt's asked once she entered? “Matt's I can hear you, Kate smiled”.

Am glad everything went well. You get to go home tomorrow but the doctor said you have to take it easy. Matts said smiling.

If possible stay home for now whiles you put to bed. Any shocking news might be dangerous nectar added holding her in his arms.

Nectar you know i can't do that, but I will think about reducing the work load. Kate said.

I don't know what you use all this money for when I can equally provide for you. Nectar talked calmly so not to upset his wife.

Nectar can't this wait, when you guys get home you sort it out. Matt's who was looking on while the young couples fight the urge to understand each other finally spoke up.


******

Stacy we failed again. This one is on you. Stacy’s mom called her daughter up when Kate made it to the hospital in a cab.

Maybe the guys you sent to temper with Kate’s fuel storage in the office might not have done a good job because you spent what I gave you to make sure they deliver this time. Stay said with plain remorse.

But I paid him much Stacy. Her mom said. And I risked my job allowing him into my work premises. Mom let’s stop all this already. Am tired of these atrocities. Stacy cried to her mom and hanged up on her.


*****

Miss are you okay? Stacy spoke to Kate over the phone. According to nectar she has been calling since they came in that morning.

Stacy are you okay? Kate threw the question back to her. I am fine Miss, I just thought of calling to check on you since you haven’t been to work today. She lied.

I am fine my dear, just handle things for now, will let you know when I will be back to work. Kate said.

Take care of yourself Miss. Stacy said and quickly hang up. “What was that all about, nectar asked”. I don't know she's just concerned I guess. Nectar gave Kate the “am not sure face”.


******

Kate it has been several months already since that our coincidence bathroom sex and I feel like bursting out. Nectar complained to his wife, after two weeks of getting back from the hospital.

When will you allow me start touching you? Am not expecting anything emotional or romantic. You can just pretend you love it and curse me later to Matt's. Nectar said staring in Kate’s shy eyes.

I smiled. Now that Mandy is out of the picture, I have the right you know. Nectar smiled in between his words.


How do you know that? He might be back and am not sure I can handle resisting him. I heard whatever you told him the last time he came here. Sorry I eavesdropped and met him behind your back.

What? What did you tell him! Kate asked curiously. Trust me he will not be back. I am a man too remember?

“Okay nectar”. Okay! What now? He asked. We can try that some other time but right now am tired. I just want to sleep after a hard day’s work. . Kate said to nectar.

These precious ones have already exhausted my strength this evening. Kate further lamented. You have time for work, and not for this. He said pointing to his waist; Kate took off her eyes quickly.

“That’s fine Kate”! I will keep waiting, when you figure out whatever attraction it is you want to feel, then you prompt me. Nectar said, trying not to be so rude and before Kate could talk he interrupted again.

You are in your sixth month, a crucial stage, would you mind handing over fully tomorrow. Nectar asked kindly.

Please don’t do that, we talked about this and you agreed to give me time and we also agreed you wouldn’t dictate to me what I should do. That is how we have survived this far? I can’t just jump into falling in love with you. Kate said rather sadly.


Sorry! Nectar pushed to the other side and covered himself. Turned off the bedside lamp. I looked at the dejected body lying with his back against me. How do I handle this, its long overdue Kate thought.

Earlier I had wanted to give in, truthfully I was tired. Besides spent the whole day from one meeting to another. Though I promised nectar after I was discharged two weeks ago I would slow down, work keeps piling up and that’s the only thing that makes me feel alive. Kate’s mind kept roaming.

But I think I just needed to find a way not to embarrass myself, as I may not want to mention anything weird again, hence hurting his ego. She kept thinking and drifted to sleep.


*******


Matt's am not sure Kate is ready for another blow yet. How do I tell her she's got a sister out there? Doctor Sylvester said she's fragile now, any bad news is disastrous.


“Nectar narrated to her sister over early breakfast”. But nectar this is no bad news, Kate always wanted a sister, this would be good for her. Matt's said.

Maybe she might take the fact that she has a sister out there lightly but why her mom concealed that from her again is what she can't take.

“According to her Mr Wilson wants to find her first. Her hands were tied”. “I don’t want her to hate me for another lie. I am already having a hard time controlling her moods”.

Especially when I know she hasn't really accepted me in her life yet. I am barely handling myself in the bedroom. Nectar confessed so worried.

You mean she hasn't given in yet. Wow nectar, you must be dying in there. I must commend you for handling that well so far, with she pregnant and all and she still doesn't want you.

“Nectar that's not the Katie I know. Matt's said”. Well she might just be handling too much now and I don't want to pressure her. Nectar replied sadly.

“When you two are done with gossiping about my intimate life then you tell me, am famished already”. Kate spoke from up the stairs while descending.

Both nectar and Matt's turned to the direction the voice was coming from and froze on sighting Kate.

Are you two just going to stare at me because I caught you red-handed this time? Kate blurted out. For close to two minutes nobody spoke up and Kate realizing the tension had to clear the air.

Nectar pass me the milk please, which she could easily just pick up herself. Kate watched while nectar passed on the milk jar with shaky hands.

Matt's and nectar kept stealing glances from one corner of the dinning to another. They could not read Kate's expressions this time. She was so calm and different.

So how long have you known i had a sister? Kate suddenly asked and nectar nearly choked on his bread. Matt's opened her mouth but nothing came out.

Look, you too should drop the act already, besides it's not a big deal. I have always wanted one so you don't need to look as if you just killed me as you both are doing now. Kate spoke up again.

Brother and sister still surprised at the table wondered if Kate is okay because it's unlike her.


They ate in silence and since no one was ready to talk, she cleared the table and was heading back upstairs and retracted her steps.

For what it's worth, I always knew I had a sister, you two just confirmed it, I just didn't peruse it. She said and left them both at the table.

*****

Among the many quarrels in her house when she was growing up, one of those were always about her dad cheating on her mom Catherine where this time a child was conceived which he denied.

She couldn't process it then but kept to herself all the time. The psychological effects the fights were having on her as young as she was made her reserved where her mom thought she was having problems with a sluggish boy in school and was withdrawn from that school to another, where she met Matt's who transformed her life.


Kate tried to remember something which was off about the fight that led to her finding out about her sibling. Now it's all coming back to her. Kate hit her head several times.

Then she screamed, I remember now. The Rape! And the sluggish boy; that was drake, she finally said to herself waking up from her reverie.


Matt's and Nectar barged in on hearing the loud scream. “Are you okay Kate, they both chorused”.

Am fine Nectar, she turned to nectar who is now seated holding her hands on the bed while Matt's looked on.

Hand me my phone Matt's. Kate asked with lots of emotions. She dials her mom’s line. Mom I remember now, how could you allow that man to abuse you all the time?

Kate what are you talking about, Confused Catherine asked her daughter over the phone.

Mom I remember Dad raping you all the time. Kate blurted out while Matt's and nectar looked on sadly.

“What's that, say again, her mom asked with a surprise tone”. I know you won't admit it to me but what's the point in lieing now. Kate asked her mom in tears now.

“Mom am coming over right now and she hanged up”.

Kate wait! Nectar held Kate by the hand. She decided to see her mom immediately after that call despite her earlier feud with her.

Nectar let me go, I was busy angry with my mom for the past weeks not knowing she was already going through a lot. Kate said.

Can you calm down for a minute, I will go with you. Nectar tried to convince Kate. No nectar, this is my messed up life, let me handle it. Kate said almost crying.

What kind of husband would I be if my wife won't allow me support her during this time. Kate your problem is you don’t want to let anyone in, how are you going to get better. Nectar said sadly.

I don't need your help, in case you haven't heard I have a problem up there, Kate said pointing to her head. I don't care Kate, in case you forgot, I have a mental ishh too. So we are even. Nectar said finally grabbing her attention.


Kate retracted her steps back to her bed.


Matt's who was sitting on the couch watching the drama, quietly tiptoed out when she realized the tension between the two couples.


She waited at the door, and saw the two finally locked up in a hot kiss and she smiled, then locked the door quietly behind her.

Nectar raised her face to meet his. Kate are you sure you want to do this or you are just making use of the moment.

Nectar would you shut up already, you were complaining earlier, but then whatever this means let's talk about it later. Kate said looking directly into nectars face waiting for a go ahead, she read the expression on his face and she sprung up.

Kate I don't want to take advantage of you, I want you to really want to be with me not because I complained about it. Nectar said with all sincerity.

I tried my best but I don't know what else you want me to feel for you. Kate said heading to the shower, then it dawned on her she was rushing out earlier to her mom’s in her pajamas. She laughed it off in her head but kept thinking if she was ever going to be emotionally and psychologically stable.


*********

Drake you arranged this, but now you are just staring at me. Matts said shyly.

I want to sleep with you Matt's. Drake said and quickly took his eyes off her. Are you out of your mind, Matt's asked Drake over a hot afternoon ice-cream date?

Matt's don't get me wrong, instead of pretending I love you I just want to sleep with you. I heard that’s what you are good at. Drake said hiding his thoughts.

Matt's was close to tears but she also knows he was right. At first she also thought of sleeping with him instead of building a relationship.

Now she wants a relationship with a broken hearted man. How would she handle that? She kept thinking for a while and spoke up.

Okay I agree! Matt's said and Drake nearly choked on his saliva. What's that Matilda? He asked again.

“I said you can be my booty call”. Matt's said stammering. That's fine with me then, we must as well start now, what do you say. Drake said without any emotions.

Matt's nodded, he grabbed a few currency notes and dropped it on the table. Your place or mine, he turned around and asked Matt's who was deep in thoughts but snapped out of her reverie.

“Your place is fine. She said shyly”.

Oh yes, you don’t want your friend to find out about us huh. Drake said mischievously. Matt's just walked pass him and entered her car waiting for him to take the lead.

If Stacy have a rethink about her evil agenda and open up to Kate, I think � she will be saved.

Ha, how many months has Kate gone in her pregnancy? I didn't see Nectar doctoring her at home with stuffs like leg massage, waist massage, being woken at midnight to provide the unthinkable( talking about those cravings that pregnant women usually have), not even accompanying her for her antenatal.

Matt Matt Matt, what has she been doing of late? let her make out time to go for lunch date with Drake

Hmm, Kate's grandma � is also in the webs of secrets. Unending drama.

LolZxx.... It will end soon! I like the way you try to read my mind all the time,

EPISODE 58

Miss Santa, Kate flared up. “Stacy I told you just yesterday I am married now”. You still call me by that name again and you are fired.


Now what is that important thing that you rushed all the way here instead of just buzzing me. Kate asked in a rather unfriendly tone.

“Your mom is at the reception. Stacy managed to say.”


Tell her I am not around. Kate said. Mrs. Glover I did but she would not leave. Stacy replied with fear.


What are you still standing there for; ask the securities to handle that. “Kate said without smiling and Stacy rushed out”.

********
Can we proceed now! I have changed my mind mom. I think tomorrow morning is the perfect time to hit as she will be going for antenatal. Stacy called her mom up after that small argument earlier with Kate.

Are you sure, she will be there this time around? Mom trust me. I handle the bitch’s schedule. Stacy replied.

“What changed your mind my dear”. Stacy’s mom asked. She just called me incompetent for the first time.

But please, don’t let her suffer too much. I do care about her final breathe. I just wish we don’t have to carry on with this. Stacy said regretting whatever she had planned for Kate.

*****

Hello Mr. Glover, the deep voice from the other side of the phone mentioned with respect.

Sir I followed her as you asked! She is the one as you suspected, but there is no connection with you from the past. But there is something else you need to know. The detective mentioned to nectar.



Yes detective! Nectar replied to announce his attention to the caller.


But Mr Glover, there is something else, the detective said.


What is it! Talk already. Nectar asked in a hurry because he just opened the door for his mother in law.


I thought you said Kate’s grand mom, doesn’t stay in George town, but I saw her during one of my stalking times. The detective said in a shocking manner.


Lets talk about this letter, I have a guest, Nectar hanged up quickly to avoid his mother in law who came in earlier during the call to suspect anything.



Kate left her office earlier due to her mind struggling to accept many things. She walked into her house and met her mom happily chatting with Nectar.


She walked briskly and passed by rudely. Knowing very well all eyes were on her.


Kate don’t pretend you didn’t notice your mom sitting right here on your favorite, couch. Nectar cautioned.

“So? Kate asked rudely. “

Don’t start another drama young woman. Nectar tried to put Kate in her place.


Please get back here and greet your mom. Whatever feud it is, you sort it out before you step upstairs. Nectar said.


Nectar that is not necessary, I just don’t want to face her now. Kate said shying away from her mom.


But she is here, you must as well start the toughing up now, nectar said reminding Kate of their previous night talk.


“Kate stood there indecisive for a few moments and walked closer. Good afternoon, Catherine. Kate said without a smile.”

“Her mom nodded. “


“What looks like no one was ready to talk, nectar interrupted”.


You ladies really need to drop your ego. It doesn’t look like any of you here was right. Nectar had to set the ball rolling.

Kate I am sorry, I would do more than that over again until you come to your senses when choosing your men. Your stubbornness breaks my heart every second, and I just had to do something so you don’t waste your life. Catherine said without remorse.



Now I don’t have to because you have finally found the “one” and so far I like what I see here. Your submissiveness that is all I ever wanted.


Trust me you would have had a tough one with each one of those men. I know what I did was wrong, paying them off and they gladly accepted, is enough to tell me, they never loved you.


I have carried that entire burden with your dad rubbing it in my face all the time when he wants something from me. Your silence right now is enough punishment for me.

“But I am sorry, can we start all over. Catherine said and paused.”


“Kate was deep in thoughts; she wasn’t touched by what her mom said at all. “


Just then, nectar whispered in her ears. “Say something, and then you can think about it later. Nectar advised.”

Okay Catherine, I will think about it, so you can go now. I have to rest. Kate said and watched her mom raise herself up sadly. “Catherine was about to walk out when Kate stopped her”.



Wait Catherine do you have any other secrets you think I should know about. Kate said avoiding her mom's gaze who was almost out of the door.


No baby, that is all! Catherine said almost choking on the rest of her words.


“For your sake I just hope so, Kate cautioned her mom”. Catherine walked out for a moment her daughter thought she saw her wiping her eyes.



Kate hold on let me drop her home. She came with a cab. Nectar said. Just give her some money she will find her way, Kate said still with anger.

******


Stacy you were not answering your call earlier. And you left the office without my knowledge, why is that. Kate asked her assistant in a rather worry tone.


Sorry Miss, I mean Mrs Glover, I had an emergency at home, do you need me for anything, Stacy asked.


That's fine Stacy, I just wanted us to talk about this morning. Sorry I lashed out on you, I had some personal problems and I took it out on you, forgive me! Kate pleaded with emotions in her voice.

You know what take the rest of the week off and sort out that issue bothering you, you can return back to work when you are fine. Kate offered.


Mrs Glover, am fine I can come to work, that's not a problem, Stacy wants to refuse for reasons known to her.


No Stacy, you have worked your whole life with me without an appreciation from me. Take it as an order from your boss. And I will send you some money once I finish with you here. Kate tried to be bossy.


Miss can I ask a question, go ahead Stacy, Kate instantly replied to Stacy's request. She couldn’t fathom why she’s so attached to this girl. Her investigations on her still is in the dark.


Why are you so good to me, I mean all I do is plan your schedules, fetch your coffee and you still pay me more than an ordinary PA should earn.


I know I don't deserve it but why do you treat me differently from the other workers, Stacy asked.


Well Stacy let's just take it as I took a liking to you during that interview, and I did some digging on you. Stacy you just happen to be quite naive and sincere. That’s all. Kate finally paused and sighed.


But Miss hope whatever you found out is nothing bad. Stacy asked with an already heavy beating heart.

Stacy, that's a story for another day. My husband is in now let me attend to him. Kate announced nectar’s presence.

“Nice talking to you Mrs Glover”.


How was she when you left, Kate managed to ask nectar when he pulled a chair beside her in the dinning.


Stressed out Kate, nectar replied sounding he was displeased with Kate's actions earlier.


“Am hungry”, nectar suddenly said to avoid the topic at hand.


Did you just ditch the topic at hand, Kate asked nectar.


Seriously am hungry, nectar said. Okay, fine Kate replied harshly! She hates it when things are not going her way.


Few hours later, Kate came back to the dinning. You are still not done eating, so we discuss what my mom told you? Kate sounded concerned.


Kate, what makes you think your mom told me anything. Nectar asked.


Nectar, you came in looking so funny and withdrawn as if I contracted some disease. Kate said.


Really Kate, you are so funny, you know that! Why do you always have to read meaning into my expressions all the time. Nectar asked.


This time around you are wrong my dear. Your mom on the other hand didn't utter a word until we got home. Nectar said with pretense.


I don't believe you nectar but that's fine, don't let me find out. Kate stressed.


“Nectar just managed a smile and shook his head while Kate retracted her steps upstairs.”

EPISODE 57

**********
Are you just going to stare at me, at least get me something to eat Drake. Kate asked Drake who was standing in one corner watching her since she came in.

I will get you something just wait here. Drake finally found his voice and told Kate who just changed her position from sitting to lying on the couch.

Hello Matts, Sorry for bothering you by this time. Drake said on the other side of the phone to Matts when he excused himself earlier from Kate who was still eating.

Look I don’t want trouble, come and take your sister in law, I don’t know what kind of trouble she is in but she is tempting me already. Drake said with worry.

Drake, thank you for informing me, I will come over to pick her up. Matts said still on the call. Wait, tell me what her problem is, if she came here probably she wants me to tell her something. Drake said.

After Matts narrated everything to Drake, he only sighed and said he will bring her over.

Hey, do you need anything else? Drake asked Kate who had finished eating and went back to her lying position.

You haven’t told me anything and I don’t want to end up in jail for harboring a pregnant married woman. So talk to me, you definitely came here because you know I can help. Drake said.

Should I call someone for you please? He asked again. No don’t, and if you don’t want me here, I can go. Kate said instantly standing up.

Look Kate, am not asking you to leave, but you are married. How would you feel if nectar had left home without a call over an argument? At least call the poor dude. He must be worried sick by now.

You know I love you, but whatever reason you came here for I cant do that. Drake said with calmness.

Chill Drake, I didn’t come here for you to sleep with me, I just wanted a place to cool down. Kate said.

That’s fine, but whatever it is, you need to go home to your husband. If I were in his shoes, I would be so worried by now. So please let me drive you home. Do this for me, I think whatever love I have for you I want to kill that now. Drake advised with emotions.

Why is this guy reacting like this. Most men would have taken this as their golden opportunity but here he is snarling about my husband. Kate thought!

Kate are you with me. Drake tapped Kate on her shoulder. Yes am here, we can go now. I think you are right and thank you so much. Kate finally came to her senses.

The drive back to her house with Drake behind the steering was very silent. Drake am sorry, if I can’t love you back. I hope you understand but thank you for not taking advantage of me.

Don’t worry Kate, its fine. I didn’t do this for you. I did it for Matts. Drake said without even knowing it.

Oh really! What’s that about? Kate asked smiling. Nothing, she just threatened me not to touch you because she could throw me in jail, Drake said.

That's not the Matts I know and it doesn’t sound like her but all the same, I hope we can still be friends somehow. Kate asked and Drake just nodded.

You want me to go in there with you Kate. Drake asked when she dropped Kate in front of her house.

No I think I just have to do this by myself. Kate said wisely. Okay all the best, just apologize to your husband and don’t run your mouth wild. You are at fault here you know. Drake advised.

Yeah you are right Drake. Okay go on, I will wait here till you close the door behind you. Drake said and Kate gave him a smile.

Where do you think you are coming from by this time? Nectar sprung up from his sitting position towards Kate who was still hanging on to the door she came through earlier.

Nectar allow her settle down first. Matts said from one corner. Matilda stay out of this, this friend of yours need to learn to give me some respect as her husband. Nectar said with anger.

Now I am asking you for the last time, tell me where you went. You want me to be hard on you in this house right? I have tried the softness, what haven’t I done but you can’t just think for yourself. Nectar said. What if something had happened to you and my children out there. Nectar asked this time moving towards Kate’s direction.

Please don’t hit me, Kate said covering her head with her hands, when nectar was not even close yet. I am sorry, I left to Drake’s thinking I could just calm down before getting home. Please I know it’s wrong but am home now. Kate said almost in tears.

You see why your Mom had to intervene in every aspect of your life. You cant take care of yourself, she has to do that for you all the time. This should be your last time running off as if your ass is on fire.

What happened to this house that you cant calm down here, you could just run off to another man’s house when you know his history with you. Kate, you are messed up, get yourself together then we can continue this marriage.

Just then Matts interrupted. Saint that’s enough, let her be. You are the one ranting now, cant you see she is just quiet and apologizing with her whole being. Give her a break.

Katie come here, Matts offered. Matts stop pampering her, that’s what is getting into her head, Nectar said following them to Matts bedroom.

If you enter that room, don’t bother coming back to your matrimonial bed because we are not done here yet. Nectar said when they got to the door.

Kate tried to retract her steps, but Matt's pushed her in, leaving nectar out there.

Here, you should be thirsty now! Matts said handing the glass of water to Kate who seem to be worried. Katie, you know you were wrong. Matts said! But Matts nothing happened. Kate tried to clarify.

Katie, I know because I spoke with Drake! That hasn’t changed the fact that you were still wrong, you can’t keep running off all the time when an issue pops up.

For now relax and talk to nectar tomorrow or maybe you can just go in there once he is asleep. Matt's advised. I think I will go in there when he has gone to bed.

How do you plan to handle your mom? I need to know because Mandy can decide to take legal action against her. She is the reason he went to jail in the first place over false witnesses and evidence. Matt's narrated using legal terms.

Look, whatever punishment she deserves, make it double. I don’t care anymore, she has caused me enough already. Her betrayal is more than been cheated on. Kate said sadly.

Katie that’s your Mom, she had genuine reasons for what she did to every man that came your way but she went about it wrongly. Matts advised.

So I should jump to her rescue again? Not this time Matts. Among all those men, do you want to tell me none of them were innocent? At least there should be one, who genuinely loved me and my mom had to brainwash. Kate analyzed.

Maybe Andy, because so far he had no red flags as to whatever game the rest were playing with you. Matts said trying to make Kate see the bigger picture. She keeps calling, worried about you. Here she has left a lot of messages. Matts handed over Kate’s phone.

Thank you matts, I will see you tomorrow, let me try and talk to nectar. Goodnight, Kate said and headed back to her room.

Kate opened the door gently and entered trying not to disturb her sleeping husband. She tiptoed to her bedside, then to the washroom. She was about to cover herself when nectar spoke up.

When you are done sneaking around you can turn off the lights. Nectar said and she froze upon hearing his voice. There was silence after a while, then Kate spoke up.

I know I was wrong, I won't try to justify what I did but I promise it wont happen again. Besides what do you expect me to do when everyone else in my life seems to be fake. I wont be surprised if my Personal assistant wakes up the next day and tells me he slept with my husband or my father.

Nectar everything around me is just going the wrong way. Betrayals and secrets everywhere, I don’t know who to trust. Kate said crying now.

Come here, nectar pulled her into his arms. You can trust me, Matts is there too. What else do you need? Nectar consoled.

I want the secrets to end; I want a normal life nectar. God knows what else my parents are hiding from me. I can’t take another blow, it will destroy me. Kate said with emotions.

Then you have to prepare for it, life is such. You can’t always get it right. You need to understand that so you can move on. Nectar still has his hands all over Kate.

Nobody will do the moving on for you; you have to teach yourself how to be tough when troubles come your way. Your mom pampered you too much; it has clouded your actions. Learn not to depend on others too much. Nectar paused while caressing her face.

Thank you, Kate sniffed. This means you forgive me. Kate said and nectar replied with a No. You said some mean things out there this evening, I have forgiven you so you should forgive me or I take my forgiveness back. Kate said trying to make a joke. They kept talking till she drifted to sleep.

Nectar laid her back and placed a call out to someone. How is the investigation going, I need answers. This is taking too long and you know it.

Nectar quickly hanged up when Kate rolled over to his sleeping space hence covering the whole bed. He smiled and took over the couch.


To be continued.


Apologies to Pearl05 for the alnight

This family and drama sha

Lolzx.....whose childhood is that

EPISODE 56

Stacy who is chasing you. Is there a problem? Kate asked Stacy who just barged into her office without any notice. Miss am sorry, Stacy apologized looking around as if she lost something.

Stacy you can go! Kate raised her head up from her pile of work and realized she was still standing there looking around her office. Stacy I said you can go.

Probably you want to tell me something. Kate asked wishing she could just open up to her for once, she has always liked Stacy since she came for that interview which she didn’t qualify for in the first place. Kate gave her a job thinking she could make a friend out of her.

Miss have you taken the juice I brought earlier, Stacy asked waking Kate out of her thoughts. No Stacy, it smelled so funny so I dropped it in the bin. Kate said and Stacy sighed a big Thank Goodness. Kate finally dropped her pen.

Stacy are you sure you are fine. Do you need some time off?

No Miss, I just wanted to check if you needed anything. Stacy managed to say covering her tracks. Are you sure, because earlier you look like you had committed a crime. Kate said lost in her thoughts.

I just realized I got the wrong juice type for you and I was scared to tell you, since I have been making many mistakes lately.

Stacy you don’t have to be scared of me at all. I am grateful you are always giving this company your best. Thank you Miss, Stacy smiled after Kate’s compliments.

“She was walking out when she asked Kate a question that she assumed was weird.” “Miss do you have any siblings? Stacy asked avoiding Kate’s gaze.”

Why did you ask Stacy? I was just curious; you seem to be handling this whole place alone. Well my mum died before she could give me a brother or a sister, which would have been so nice to have one.

Really! You would love to have a sibling. Stacy asked with excitement. Yeah Stacy! At least I don’t have to stress myself over this company.

“Kate realized Stacy was trying to open up to her, so she invited her over for dinner on Saturday.”

Miss am not sure your husband would like me there. Stacy tried to reject the invitation. Why wouldn’t he want you there? Kate asked wondering what nectar has done now.

The way he was staring at me the last time I brought the documents over, tells me he doesn’t like me that much. Stacy said bluntly.

Ooh common Stacy, I am sure my husband will be just fine with you around. Kate said loosening up. Okay Miss I will think about it.

*******

Nectar woke up soaked in sweat and found himself in Kate’s arm, while she was dozing off. Kate, are you alright, nectar gently tapped her on the shoulder. You are awake, Kate asked with sleep calling her back. Yes, what happened! Nectar asked confused.

Your episodes again, Kate said releasing herself from Nectars grasp. That makes it four days in a row Kate. Nectar said.

Yes, and I think you should consider talking to a Psychologist. Sorry to say this but you need a special kind of help that I can’t offer.

Nectar gave his wife a quick Kiss, got down from the bed and walked straight out of the door.

This is where you are? Kate sighed and asked nectar who directed Kate’s phone in her face.

I thought you cut all ties with your so called ex, so why does he keep calling you. Nectar said trying to control himself.

So you were going through my phone, why didn’t you pick up and ask him why he keeps calling your wife. She hissed and walked down to check on Matts.

Nectar just nodded his head to Kate’s stubbornness.

*******

Mom, stop whoever you sent after Kate. I want to tell her the truth now. Stacy was sitting with her mother who is so angry her daughter is not thinking straight.

Young woman, if you are tired of this, just allow me handle it and keep your mouth shut. Stacy’s Mom told her daughter sternly.

Mom be careful, because if you are caught, I will deny you, because already investigations are ongoing with the last stunt we pulled. Stacy advised her mom.

Just then, Stacy’s phone rang. Are you coming for dinner this evening? Kate was on the other side of the phone with Stacy. Sorry Miss, I cant make it! I am stuck with my mom tonight. She explained!

Though I am disappointed, but that’s fine. Kate told Stacy over the phone.

*******

Nectar can I see you for a moment, Matt's asked nectar who was enjoying an alone time with his wife's well-prepared lunch. He gets to enjoy that all the time now.

Matilda can you at least let me finish this meal, why are you a torn in my flesh these days. Nectar said trying to finish the last spoon of meal.

“Saint trust me, this one can't wait, and Katie’s life depends on it now”.

Nectar sprung up from where he sat earlier. Matilda start talking, nectar almost couldn't control his anger. She then handed over the envelope to Nectar who quickly glanced through and snapped.

Where did you get this from, it's outdated. You had this all along and never said anything. Nectar questioned.

Saint Kate was going through a lot already and there was no need for me rubbing in the fact that the only person she trust has been her worse nightmare.

Besides, I have been monitoring her movements, and so far nothing, whatever reasons she did what she did I guess Kate has to handle that herself now.

Handle what myself! Matt's and Nectar turned their attention to the door, which was opened when matts came in earlier. Why are you both looking at me like you were gossiping about me. Kate asked suspecting they are hiding something.

You are back early, what happened. Nectar found his voice. Nectar, that doesn’t answer my question. What should I handle? She asked again.

Ooh that? Matt's was suggesting a baby shower and I told her I would let you handle that yourself. Nectar lied.

Oh really, Matt's! You are a genius,, but am not stupid to believe the tension that was going on between you two when I came in was about an ordinary baby shower. Kate said with curiosity.

Now someone should start talking before I lose it. Kate threatened. Kate it hasn’t come to that, Lets go to the room and we will talk.

Nectar we are here now and you are not talking. Okay keep it to yourself, let it eat you up. Kate said, flung her wardrobe open and changed up.

She actually came home to relax a little and go back, but at the look of things she cant. She was still in her thoughts when she felt nectar's hands running through her hair.

Nectar stop it, I thought we agreed no secrets from now on. Kate asked. I know but this is a messed up one. Promise me you are going to thread carefully for the sake of the little ones.

Whatever happens she might have a genuine reason, nectar advised Kate who could not handle the truth staring her in the face. She yelled, cried and drifted to sleep.

By the time nectar got back from the washroom, Kate has disappeared, locking nectar in doors. She drove on top speed to her father’s house.


*******

Mum I can't believe you could mess up my life. I thought my worst nightmare was Dad who never loved me but not my mom who I hold so dear.

You have caused me all these pains and emotional stress all in the name of motherly love.

“Common Catherine am not even your daughter so for whatever reason you did this is still weird”.

I get it, you love me too much, then what! Do you have to drive all the men in my life away, I know am stubborn, you talk and I don't listen, that doesn't make you any angel from God.

Did I ever complain to you about any of my boyfriends, how would you even know they are not good enough for me when you keep threatening and paying them off.

“Is that what you use my money for, no wonder Dad doesn't look after you like he should”.

See am leaving, don't try anything funny with this one standing here or I will deal with you before you do. Kate said pointing to Nectar rudely.

Kate finally paused, took another stare at her mum who was just sitting quietly listening to her daughter rant over the mistakes she has done just to protect her.

And you Dad, how could you hold this against her, so this is the reason she doesn't want to leave, what did you threaten her with! Jail time or murder. Kate said pointing her finger in her dads direction.

Now it's in the open, allow the poor woman leave now. Or there is something else holding her here. Kate stormed out after that statement and nectar followed immediately.

Kate wait, let me drive before you kill us both. Nectar said with concern. Nectar, why did they treat me this way.

I just want a father's love, which I never got. I found that in my boyfriends, just for my mom to ruin it all.

Do you know how hard it was for me to fall back in love and the men just wake up one day with excuses, you are not good enough, I have found someone else. It was never love; I just needed your money, now I have it.

I woke up today and found out those excuses were plotted by my own mother, a woman I have been living my entire life for. Kate just fell in nectar's arms, and there was silence for a while.

Nectar carried her back into the car after checking her pulse, which indicated everything was fine, then he fished out the car keys from her bag and drove out of the Santa mansion.

Matt's on your way back home, get someone to drive my car from the Santa Mansion home. Am driving Kate home who rushed out earlier to her mom's and I had to quickly chase her up.

Is she okay Matt's asked from the other side of the phone, not now but she will be. Nectar assured her. After some few hours nectar was still waiting for his wife to wake up.

Saint, Matt's called peeking through the small opening of the bedroom door. Keep quiet and come in already Matts, Nectar said. How bad is it, Matt's asked.

She is shattered my sister. Relieving the past all over again. Her mom keeps calling, here handle that, am not sure I can, nectar said handing over to Matt's his wife’s phone.

Finally you are awake, nectar and matts chorused. Nectar tried to touch her and she flared up. Leave me alone. How do I know you haven’t been paid off as well. Get out of my way. Kate yelled.

Found her dress hanged up, quickly wore it and left both Matt's and nectar stunned. Don’t try to stop me she said and walked out to the main gate and got a cab.

She gave the driver the direction, and knocked on the gate which finally got opened two minutes after.

Drake please sort out the driver, I don’t have my purse on me. Kate announced after arriving at Drakes end. She knew it was a bad idea but she just wanted to get out of the house and that was the only place she had in mind.

Drake stared confusedly at both the driver and Kate, which he finally paid and closed the gate, ushering Kate in.

To be continued

Nmaglit:

Pearl05:
Why does Stacy refer to Kate as "Miss"? If they are not on first name basis she she refer to her as "Ma'am" or Mrs Glover.

Thanks for the updates.

I love the storyline.

Please should I wait for the next update or is it going to be for the night watchers.

Where they come from you don't call your boss ma'am , Kate got married just recently and Stacy has always referred to her Miss before the marriage plus Kate always wanted to be her friend


Night watchers, the update will be late

Sorry guyz, i slept off. So you wouldnt keep on refreshing the thread every seconds, i will post very late at night two long episodes.



i know i have dissapointed lately, Please forgive me.

EPISODE 55

How can you make a joke right now when I am serious? Kate said still not sure of her feelings. As she thought about it for a minute she feels it’s a good idea not to jump the fence yet, as she had no idea what to expect.


Sorry, I just…. Nectar was about to say when she held her middle finger on his lips and told him to give her time.


I can hold you in my arms right. Says, who? We giggled and drifted to sleep.


*******************

Why did you ask me here Matts? Has something happened to Kate?
After learning drake did all that? Matts arranged a meeting with him, though she has her own personal agenda to push around.


“I must admit I admire his stature, which am lusting over right, now sitting in front of him. Matts thought.”


Matts, are you just going to stare at me? Drake asked wondering what was going on with her.


Emmm pardon my stare. Matts came out of her reverie stammering.


Why did you bring me here Matts? Drake asked again, confused why Matts kept staring and swallowing saliva as if she was thirsty.

Waiter, please kindly give the lady here some juice. Pineapple preferably because she hasn’t touched the coffee in front of her, Drake ordered.


I was suddenly dumb. I could not explain my feelings towards this dude now. It’s not as if he is my type but the feeling is just intense. Maybe I just want to sleep with him Matts thought.

By the time, I realized I saw him dropping money on the table, probably for the coffee I ordered but had not touched yet.


Matts quickly stood up and blocked his way, am sorry Drake. Don’t go Kate’s life depends on it. He looked back into matts eyes and she feigned a smile.


Okay make it snappy, I have somewhere else to be. Drake said without reading meaning into what matts said earlier, or he just doesn’t care anymore.


Who is LITDEVIL5? Matts asked and saw the look on Drake’s face. He was surprised, that tells her he knew what she was talking about now. He was silent for an extra two minutes, Matts kept looking into his eyes and each time he made to talk nothing comes out.


Drake, you did this to someone you claim you love? Common to think I came here hoping you would actually prove me wrong. Matts said just hoping that somehow she was wrong in accusing Drake.


Look Matts, who else knows about this. Drake finally found his voice.


“Wow so it is true. Matts said losing all hope.”

He held my hands firmly, which I slapped on the table earlier. The spark I could not control but I need to focus on his answers. Matts get over yourself now, Matts murmured to her inner being.


“I asked a question and I need an answer.” Matts said annoyingly now. See I can explain but only to Kate. He said calmly.

She doesn’t want to see you. What point of that don’t you get Drake. Matts said trying to control her anger and emotions.

That is my username on escort.com but I sold it out after I found Kate again. He said opening up with honesty in his eyes.


What do you mean by again? You two know each other before you met again. Matts asked inquisitively.


I need to talk to Kate she alone will understand me. I hope nothing happened with what I started. He asked worried.


Matts told him from the beginning to the end, somehow she was so happy he had nothing to do with all this mess, but she still need not to make it obvious.


“They were about to leave when Drake asked if she believed him.” Of course, I can see through your beautiful eyes. Matts said rather aloud.


Drake jerked his neck back and looked at her. Well I mean I like your blue eyes, Matts stammered.


Thank you, Drake said with a serious face, while he drove alongside Matts.

*******

Stacy! Kate called up to her assistance who was looking around the living room while Kate was yet to attend to the reason she came by.

Kate walked down the stairs, while nectar followed.


Hello Miss, I brought the documents as you asked. But the investors want a meeting with you soon or they pull out, Stacy stated while avoiding nectar’s gaze which was on her since he came down.

Don’t I know you from somewhere? Nectar asked, distracting their conversation. Kate shoved him an eye.


Nectar of course you know her, Stacy my assistance. Now can you please let us have this meeting? Kate but am sure I know her from somewhere else.

Nectar, leave us alone. Remember I am in the house because you asked me to, i think I should go to work now. Kate said standing up.


No, Kate! I give up, but lets talk about this when you are done. Nectar said, took a second look at Stacy whose heartbeat from afar you can detect and her confused gaze all over the room.


So Stacy, I will be at work next week. Send them an invite, then we see how best we will handle that. Thank you Miss, I have to get going now. Stacy said rather in a hurry.


Why don’t you wait for lunch, i am sure my husband wont mind. You are avoiding him for some reason he tried to state earlier. Do you know him, because you usually wait for lunch at my mums when you come over. Kate said.


No Miss, I just have many reports I need to handle. Stacy said struggling with her voice. But i am the Boss, the reports can hang on for now. Kate said smiling. But Miss, the truth is I have a date, I need to prepare for.

Ohh I see! Good luck then, Kate said and walked her to the door.

*******

Nectar, what was that all about earlier, you scared the poor girl. I have been trying for years to get through to her but she keeps to herself.


Sorry Kate, her face struck someone I know! Nectar said still trying to remember. Someone like the many girls you took advantage of. Kate spilled that trash out before coming to her senses.


Wow! Is someone jealous? Nectar couldn’t stop smiling but managed to ask. You wish. Kate said smiling. Well if you happen to remember then you let me know because I know she knows you too because I saw her earlier staring at your image on the wall.


Nectar jerked up and wondered why Stacy was interested in his mere image. Are you sure Kate?


Yes, but it’s not a big deal. Besides, she could just be admiring you that’s all. Kate said now smiling. If you say so, but be careful around her. Nectar advised. All right Bishop Glover. They both laughed.

********

Mom am not sure I can continue this anymore, everytiime I get the opportunity to take revenge for how I was abandoned like a chicken; she just makes me feel welcomed.


Shouldn’t I be going after her Dad rather? No if you do, you might not get enough money. If Kate is out of the way, there you can get everything.


Mom is that necessary, I mean I could just ask. Am sure she wouldn’t hesitate. My daughter you wouldn’t understand, the humiliation I had to face when your dad denied you, just because of that Slut Kate.


But she is not a slut mom. Open your eyes, and don’t screw this up for me again Stacy. I want to get Wilson where it hurts most.


Stacy’s mom on the other side of the phone said to her when she left the Glover premises earlier on one of her missions.

********
What is happening here? Katie asked coming down the stairs, and staring at Drake and Matts sitting watching each other weirdly.


Relax dear he has answers. Matts tried to defend. I miss my friend but I have to be tough on him. Kate thought!


“Kate! Look at me! After all these years, I was wondering if my face hasn’t strike your memory yet.” Drake said with difficulty.


What are you talking about now? Kate said frowning her face.


Grade 5. The sluggish dude who always had a crush on you but you were always withdrawn and reserved back then. I looked for you after you changed school. I heard you went to Beacon Hills. I never forgot your face after I turned twenty-one.


During one of our reunions, I met your desk mate Sansa, the British girl. She told me about George Town. When I arrived here, I stalked you for a while, there were times I followed you and Mandy to your secret places. It breaks my heart to see him treat you like trash but you seem to love him.


“I was on my stalking sphere that sad afternoon that was when you bumped into me.”


Look, all this drama, I just don’t remember you Drake. To me whatever you feel for me is absurd. Kill it now. Am back with my husband now, I may not exactly say I love him but at least he wouldn’t be stalking me like a fool. Kate said bluntly to matts detest.


“Drake was near to tears, but pushed it back.”


Who has the username now? Don’t worry Matts texted me with the details before you came. Kate said after she saw the surprise look on Drakes face when she popped the question.


With that site, you don’t meet with whom you are selling your account. He said calmly.


You know what fix it. You made me vulnerable to a vulture out there, who could swallow me soon. Kate said getting angry within herself.


Okay I will find a way. He said with sorrow, whiles matts watched on.


Now you can get out. Kate threw out with emotions and was returning upstairs when he called out. Kate am sorry for the mean words I used on you the last time. Please forgive me. Drake announced apologetically.


Katie listen to him. You can’t lose your best friend. Matts said without jealousy this time.


Is he God that I can’t lose? Okay fine on two conditions! She reconsidered.


Name anything possible! Drake said cheerfully.


“Look for the one responsible and second try and kill whatever you feel for me.”


Kate that is not possible. You of all people should understand, drake tried to reason with Kate. How do I do that? I don’t care, do that and you have my forgiveness. Kate said seriously now.


“Maybe you could just sleep with Matts here that would break the love charm. She is good at breaking charms and hearts.” Kate said without thinking.


Katie! Matts yelled! You are a sellout. Matts said and grinned with anger towards Katie and Drake she couldn’t figure it out.


I saw Drake leaving when nectar walked in. Hey, they greeted each other. “I stood on the stairs watching Matts running her hands through her hair.”


Hey Sis, how is it. Then he walked to where I was standing. “Hi Kate. Hope you are fine. I replied with a Yes “. He passed by to the room tapping my shoulder briefly.


Am I missing something here, Katie? Matts asked surprising me.

What? I pretended not to know what Matts was referring to. You just answered nectar in a smooth manner. Has he slept with you again? Matts said with a loud tone.


I rushed to her, calm down, I said with my hands covering Matts mouth and dragged her to her room.


You want him to hear you. Tell me or I go out there and shout. Matts threatened. Matts nothing happened. You ruined our Kiss with that knock.


Wow, you are a slut Katie. I threw her pillow at her. You called me a slut right. And you are a brat Matts.


Seriously, between the two of us, who sleeps around most? Katie asked. You Katie, matts replied covering her face with the pillow thrown earlier.


Matts i sleep with my boyfriend’s not random hairy dudes. Matts gave me slap on the back and we all laughed.


You need to get a man soon Matts. At least one to sleep with better than sleeping with everything in trousers. Kate advised Matts who was looking on sternly.


I know right, matts replied. I know you don’t like the marriage stuffs but a personal booty call will do no harm Matts, Kate tried not to sound offensive.


Thanks mom, matts teased. Silly you. I need to see nectar I will be back. Do not rub it in my face, Matts said while Kate smiled back.

EPISODE 54

Kate felt nectars wet lips on hers, and slowly gave in and vice versa. For close to two minutes, he was everywhere.

His emotions were out of place and he was making headway with the pleasures they both needed by touching the right places, when a knock came on the door. He jumped to his feet like a cheating husband caught by his wife.

“Who is there, Katie are you okay in there. Matts asked concerned.”

“Matilda go away. I heard nectar shout and interrupted. “

“Saint I need Katie now with something urgent.”


What is that? Nectar asked. Katie I have a lead on that mail we talked about the last time. Matts shouted to me.


Nectar shoved me an eye. Please can we continue this later, Kate asked nectar who just nodded his head. Kate quickly rushed herself downstairs.


Meet my Confidential Informant. Matts introduced!


Okay! Tell me the anonymous person behind the username LITDEVIL5. Kate asked rather in a hurry to go back upstairs.


You will not believe this. I think you need to sit down for this. Kate forgot she was standing all along.


“Talk Matts, what is it. “ Kate asked curiously.


Drake set you up. Huh! No way.


Yes way Katie! He did everything electronically and hired Bradley who initially was just in for the money but well you know how that story ended.

When he realized he was getting so close to liking you, he had to get him off the way that was when the murder and rape story of the girl came about.


No, I refuse to believe this. Why would he do that? Kate just lost appetite for whatever she was in a hurry to go back to. Let me call him, She said in a rush.


No you will do no such thing, we have to thread carefully. Allow me handle this mess, while you have all the time to fix your marriage. Matts offered.


“Thank you Matts we shook hands with the C.I and he walked out.”

Kate how is that going up there with you two. Matts asked pointing to the direction to which I was headed earlier before she stopped me.


Matts let me gist you later, Kate replied grinning.

Okay but I hope you are not planning to tell him anything yet. Matts asked.


Of course, Yes, I have to. I can’t start this new journey on secrets and lies. Kate said shaking her head to agree she has made the right decision.


What was that all about? Nectar asked when Kate entered her matrimonial room.


I didn’t see the need to answer him right at that moment when all I was thinking about was the kiss earlier, but yes, I have to start giving him the benefits of the doubt.

“I think you might not believe me, but then you ask Matts.” Kate said having second thoughts.

Kate I think I can trust you, so talk. If you are not ready to then fine. Nectar said honestly.


Sleeping on the other side of the bed, he came in smelling like fresh water. That earlier was about Mandy, Kate examined the look on nectars face.


It’s not what you think please. Kate said politely. I will tell you about it on one condition.


“Which is? Nectar asked curiously. “

Tell me about Keisha, I have the right to know if she has done anything to bring about those episodes. Kate demanded.


Nectar became sad all of a sudden. Heaved a loud and painful sigh and made to talk. How much exactly did Matts tell you? He asked.


“Just about the marriage to how you tried saving Keisha and failed, that is all.”


I think that is it then. Nectar tried to hide the fact that he was not comfortable with talking about his past.


No what happened. Nectar I am trying here to open up, that’s a good thing. Kate said rather shyly.


How am I so comfortable for the past one hour with him? Kate thought!


Keisha and I had a little argument over leaving the Hamptons back home. She wanted to stay but I insisted we go because I had to resume work soon, which I needed to handle some few things beforehand.


Some other words followed and she was angry I already packed up her things, I was wondering why she was taking long to come out of the washroom and when I realized she slipped and was in her own pool of blood. Just a stupid argument, why couldnt i put her need first. I was just stupid then.


And i dont want to make that mistake with you, the reason i paid no attention to your rudeness. Because i might just commit another murder if i do.

“Nectar finally said with tears strolling down his cheeks.”


Am not sure if I should be holding him in my arms but he quickly said now your turn Kate. I want to hear it all.


After what looks like an hour, I realized I just told him everything about my dad, down to Drake the last fool in love with me.


Thank you for trusting me with this let me know what I can do to help. Nectar finally found his voice and said.


Kate then realized nectar is just an ordinary man who had a bitter experience and may never recover. She kept thinking to herself and longing for that kiss from earlier.


Can we continue what we started earlier? Nectar finally asked! What did we start earlier? Kate pretended not to know.


You sure want me to say it right! Kate feigned a smile at Nectar’s sarcastic question.


I want to kiss you again. Just a Kiss Nectar said grinning.


No gentle man! Am not ready, I don’t want to disappoint you again moaning someone else’s name.


“Over excitement took over Kate’s lips as she cursed herself that instant for refusing that golden opportunity.”


I don’t care Kate; you can even mention Matt’s name that is not a big thing.
