EPISODE 13:



Marie’s POV

After we got changed into fresh clothes, Francis helped me loosen my hair and dry it with the blow dryer but after that, he refused to stay with me in the bedroom to avoid stories that touches the heart (whatever that means).

All evening, I was awake thinking about the kiss, his well built muscles and the fact that he loves me back all drove me wild.

Suddenly I remembered that I wanted to call his sister and find out from her what is going on with them.

I knew I was being a bit nosy about this but I couldn’t help it at that moment. Francis has something bothering him and I won’t back down until I find out.

The call was now ringing and luckily, she picked up at the last ring.

“Hello, is this Victoria?” I asked calmly.

“Yes and who is this?” She replied with a little hesitation in her voice.

“My name is Marie Davis, your brother works for my family.” I answered calmly.

“Wow, nice to hear from you, he has told me a lot about you.” She replied breezily.

So Francis has told his family about me? That means I also need to tell my dad. I thought to myself.

“He has?” I asked with surprise.

“Yeah, of course he says you’re the best person in the world.”
I was blushing very hard at this point, thank God she couldn’t see me through the phone.

“Francis is blowing the trumpets.” I said with a little giggle which made her laugh on the other end of the phone.

“I know this is very cliche but, is there anything that is bothering Francis that I should know about because it’s affecting his work.”
(I can’t believe I just said that. What a blatant lie.)

“My mum is sick and needs surgery.” She replied slowly after a little hesitation.

“Please don’t be mad at him ma, he’s been thinking about it so much especially now that he is not here with us.” She added with a pleading voice.

“No! I’m not mad at him okay? I care about him and I wanted to know. What type of surgery are we talking about here?” I added feeling better knowing the truth.

“An appendectomy ma.” She answered sadly.

“Just that?” I asked surprised.

“Yes ma.” She answered quickly.

“Okay, here is what we’ll do; I’ll send you an address once I get off the phone. Take your mum there tomorrow and they’ll do something about it okay?”

“Ok Ma.”  She replied with a hopeful voice.

“And do me a favor, keep this from Francis for now because I don’t want him to freak out. I said sounding very serious.
I’ll try ma. Thanks you very much for your help and support.
It’s nothing Victoria, I’ll do anything for Francis. Good night dear.”

“Good night Ma.” She added and I ended the call.

I immediately texted her the address of our family hospital and put a call across to one of the doctors to inform him as well so he could admit Francis’ mum without any delay.

 

Francis’ POV

I’ve been trying my sister’s number for the past five minutes and it’s still said she was on another call.

How could this girl be talking to for so long?

I dialled it one last time and it got through finally.

She refused to tell me who was on the phone with her but she sounded very happy.

I hope it was not a guy oh
Cuz I’ll beat the life out of him if he tries anything stupid with Victoria.

 

I dozed off as my mind drifted from my sister to my mum and then to the girl I kissed today.
I love her so much and I’m ready to take the risk. Her mum can fire me for what it’s worth.

EPISODE 12:


Marie’s POV

I was woken up that morning by a knock on my door. It was Lucy announcing that lunch is ready.

 

My eyes widened immediately she mentioned lunch! OMG!! I can’t believe that I stayed in bed till the afternoon.

 

I sat up in bed rubbing my eyes with one hand and running the other through my hair. I looked around the bed for my phone and unlocked the screen to check the time 2:14 in the afternoon.

 

I was up all night chatting with Francis until I fell asleep in the early hours of the morning.

 

I jumped out of the bed straight to the shower.

 

I got down a few minutes later and went downstairs for lunch.

 

My phone started ringing and I picked up to check the caller ID it was Francis. I quickly invited him over when I learned that my mum has travelled to Dubai and would be back in a week. Nothing but joy!!

 

After lunch with Francis, we sat down to watch some TV when my phone rang. I checked the caller ID and it was a strange number. It turned out to be Jude.

 

 How did you get my number? I asked after he introduced himself
 I got it from your mum, he answered with a pleading voice
 What do you want? I asked with a bitter voice
 I want to see your beautiful face again, I spent all night thinking about you and I couldn’t sleep. He said.
 You wish, bye bye. I said with a scoff as I ended the call.

 

I ended up losing interest in the movie and so, we decided to go and sit by the pool for a while.

 

I needed to get Francis’ phone so I can get his sister’s phone number. I pretended to be transferring photos to my phone which helped me to copy out the number to my own phone.

 

Our time at the pool ended with me trying to rescue Francis from drowning after playfully pushing him into the pool. I had no idea that he doesn’t know how to swim.

 

We both got out of the water looking like drowned rats. We got inside the house through the back door and walked straight to my room.

 

I needed to get him something to wear. I’m happy that I had a lot of baggy unisex street wear.

 

He had already taken off the wet t-shirt he was wearing by the time I turned to face him after ransacking the closet for something suitable to give him and I stopped dead in my track.

 

My jaw dropped immediately and the clothes fell from my hands.

 

His abs were perfectly sculpted, the definition so perfectly chiseled. I couldn’t help but stare with mouth ajar. His arms, shoulders, chest; they were all so flawless. I was actually drooling.

 

I swallowed as my throat went dry, I took a step closer to him, without taking my eyes off the work of art like one in a trance.

 

I gently ran my shaky hands down his bare torso making him flinch a bit taking a step backwards. I was now doing it with my two hands which made him throw his head back and let out a low groan with his eyes closed.

 

He quickly drew me into a hug and crashed his lips on mine within a split second. Just when the kiss was heading somewhere, he stopped, his hands now on my waist.

 

I opened my eyes with a bit of disappointment because, I didn’t want him to stop but he had to or we might have done something crazy.

 

His lips were now swollen, his eyes a burning fire and his voice was thick with lust.

 

“I’ll change in the bathroom while you change in here” he says and let’s go of me as I do the same and walks towards the bathroom after collecting the clothes I had dropped on the floor.

 

He holds the door open and turns to look at me as if he just remembered something;
‘I love you too Marie’ he says with a smile and closes the door behind him.

 

I wanted to scream but I quickly put my hands over my mouth remembering that Lucy might hear me.

 

So he heard me when I told him that I love him on the phone that day. I jumped up in excitement as I took off my wet clothes and dumped them on the floor.

 

I better hurry before he comes out.

I've been away for a while, been so so busy lately. I'm gonna try and make up for it

Ann2012:
What will happen when mummy finds out

Thanks for the update

Keep your fingers crossed

EPISODE 11:


Marie's POV
So, yesterday I was stupid enough to ask Francis to kiss me but he was too much of a gentleman to do it even though I know he wanted to.



Right now, we're in the car speeding along the highway and when I mean we, I'm talking about Francis and I with Sam driving.



Our first stop is a barbing salon where Francis has to get a proper and nice haircut before we head over to my favorite mall.

He looked super hot in tshirts and I wanted to get him some.



Sam waited in the car while Francis and I walk into the mall with his hands in mine.



I wish we were an item already but too bad as he has already made it clear that he doesn't want to cross that line.



I mean he's kinda right; what if we don't work out, what is going to happen to his job then?



We were already in the boutique (men's section) picking anything that catches my eye ranging from shoes to shirts and hoodies, trousers, shorts, etc.



Jealous eyes kept looking our way as we kept walking hand in hand.



Francis keeps complaining about the prices being too high which is nothing to me.

Whenever I'm in a store, I buy what I like not what is cheap or expensive.



After an hour or so, we were finally done with the shopping and I hand Francis my card to make payment at the counter before we grab some ice cream from the food section and head back to the car.



'These stuff are too expensive' Francis complains again as we get into the car.



'Three hundred and fifty six thousand naira is nothing to me Frankie, just Google my daddy's net worth' I replied with a smile as I kept playing with my ice cream.



He exhaled and raised his hands up in surrender. He looked cute when he did that. Then he took my hands in his. At that moment, his phone started ringing and as soon as he saw the caller ID, his facial expression changed to that of worry. I had quickly checked it too; the caller ID read 'Vic'



From what I heard him say, I gathered that it was his sister and I'm guessing there was something wrong from the way he stayed quiet till we got home.



He doesn't want to talk about it so, I'll just have to find out on my own. It pains me to see him unhappy.



He thanked me for the clothes and shoes as he got down from the car and walked away with the shopping bags in both hands and his head low. Even a child could tell that he was really down.



Friday came, and before I knew it, I was almost running late for dinner tonight with Jude.



I reluctantly got dressed and went downstairs to meet him smiling sheepishly with arms open wide for a hug.



I walked slowly past him and went straight for the front door which I opened and closed with great force.

He came out shortly after looking slightly embarrassed by his action and my reaction.



The drive to the restaurant was a silent one. Soon we were parked outside one of the best restaurants in the city. I would have loved to take a photo or two but I wasn't in the mood.



We got out of the car and walked into the building with numerous security men walking before, beside and behind us.



I kept rolling my eyes, until they felt like they were going to pop out of the sockets any minute, I mean come to think of it, his dad is a mere commissioner and he has so many securities following him about while, my dad is among the top ten richest in Nigeria and I still go out alone most of the time.



Dinner with Jude was worse than I expected. But I'm glad that I got it out of the way. I was only doing it for my mum anyway.



He dropped me off at home and even attempted to kiss me. Can you imagine?



I got into the house to find my mum in the sitting room watching TV. I wasn't expecting her to be home tonight or tomorrow. I wonder why she is home tonight.



She took out time to interrogate me about the dinner for an hour before finally letting me go to bed.



Immediately I got into my room, I called Frankie. I only spoke to him in the morning I really wanted to know how he's doing. I mean, you can't blame me for thinking about him all the time.



I'll have to find a way to get a hold of the reason or reasons behind his moodiness.
I have an idea!!

EPISODE 14:


Ivy:

"The operation was successful. Congratulations! You have two boys. Both mother and children are stable though the babies are preterm and underweight, they're very healthy." Doctor said without a pause.

"They'll have to remain in the hospital for two weeks for proper observation and care." He continued and we all nodded.

"You can go see them now before they're taken to the nursery. And we'll need the father to sign the entry in the birth certificate." He added before finally walking off with the nurse.

I breathed a sigh of relief as Trevor, Yonas and I got up from the waiting chair and walked into the birthing room.

After taking turns to hold the tiny babies in our arms, the nurse took them away to the nursery while the other nurses tidied things up.

I placed the flowers Yonas brought on the bedside as I sat down on one of the small chairs watching the sleeping Maya.


❣️ Weeks later

We were back home from the hospital.

Trevor and Yonas had kinda divided the babies among themselves.

Miguel- the oldest is Yonas' godson and Manuel the youngest is Trevor's godson.

The amazing thing is that they are not identical.

I came in to the house with Trevor, yes, I said Trevor!
We have gotten back together and we are now in a kind of romantic this and that.

The babies' cries rang from inside the room soon as we walked in.

"Maya! Maya!" I yelled repeatedly as we got into the room dropping my bags.

"I'm in the bathroom!" I heard her voice faintly from a distance as me and Trevor got into the babies' room.

I lifted Miguel from inside the cot and as I sat down and dropped him on my laps, I realized that his diaper was already full. Maya is still new to this whole parenting thing.

"Their diapers!" I exclaimed and I could see Trevor scrunching his face in disgust. I couldn't hold the laughter.

"Yuck!" He managed to say as he also examined Manuel's diaper earning a little look of disapproval from me.

I sighed and got up from my seat taking Miguel along with me as I headed to the bathroom.

"Get me some wipes, and powder." I instructed Trevor as I dropped the babies inside the empty bathtub.

Trevor returned with the items and Maya also walked in looking really stressed out.

"madre del año."
"Mother of the year." I joked as she walked in and stood by the doorway.

Oh Please! She laughed. Less at my statement and more because of how Trevor was staring at us in confusion.

"What she said was...
"Don't!" I warned as Maya attempted to interpret and she bursted out laughing while Trevor's frown tightened.

"Hold Manny!" I told Trevor as I handed Manuel to him.

"Good boy." He teased tickling him lightly.

They have now stopped crying already. I also gave Miguel to Maya who tried patting him to sleep.

I finished up in the bathroom and we all returned to the room. After the babies had both gone to sleep, we left for the living room where we watched TV for sometime before Maya left us to feed the babies who had now woken up and started crying again.

As soon as Maya exited the room, Trevor bit his lips eyeing me up and moved closer to where I was sitting. He looked at me seductively as he cupped my cheeks and crashed his lips on mine.

These kisses only keep getting better and better as the day goes by.

I dropped the remote control on the table and sat on his legs dominating the kiss.

"Darn mami!" Trevor groaned as he unzipped my jacket and ran his hands all over my firm breasts which were hidden in the black camisole I was putting on while I bit his neck lightly.

"Lil Vampire" I whispered with a childish giggle.

"Okay, I've seen enough, you two need to get a room." Maya rapped as she sat on the armrest of the couch.

"Don't you knock?" Trevor asked sounding frustrated as I got up from his legs and back to my former position laughing naughtily.

"No doors in sight." She responded throwing her hands in the air.

I glared at her and she bursted out laughing as she turned round and ran out of the room.

"Good night." She shouted and shut her door. I could still hear her giggling though.

I sighed and looked at Trevor who looked slightly embarrassed at what just took place.

I should have been more embarrassed because my camisole was now on the floor leaving me half undressed, but I wasn't.

Maya knows these things anyway. I mean what I'm I even saying, she has kids!!

We got up and gathered the clothes.

"Lock the front door will ya?" I told Trevor as I gathered our things holding them in a balled shape against my chest.

"You mean I'm sleeping over?" Trevor asks with a smirk as he locks the door properly.

"Yes sir!" I responded with a mock salute.

"Catch me if you can!" I yelled and ran up the stairs giggling.

He ran after me and caught up with me sweeping me off my feet.

He got to my door and kicked it open before dropping me on the bed.

"Go easy!" I laughed as he returned from shutting the door to join me in bed. A smirk plastered on his ever so cute bearded face.

"I love you Squirrel" he whispered as we made love.

"I love you too Wolfie, you don't know the half of it." I responded in a reciprocated whisper.

EPISODE 10:


APOLOGIES/ KISS ME
Francis' POV
The next morning, I returned into the room from closing the gate. The boss has just left. What a relief!

I decided to call my sister and know how she and my mum are doing at present.

She picked up at the last ring.
She sounded very worried on the phone.

I've just been informed that my mum's health was deteriorating and she needed surgery in the shortest possible time and the house rent was almost due and she was running short on her meds.

After I got off the phone with my sister, I felt very upset and sad.



My family is suffering and I couldn't do much to remedy that as I was still waiting for my salary. I'm grateful my little sister is very hard-working. She was also doing her best to help out.

Immediately I got off the phone with my sister, Marie's call came making me remember the incident from yesterday. I'm sure that was her boyfriend and yet here she was telling me she loves me.

After a little hesitation, I finally picked and said hello. She wanted me to come over to the main building.

I stood up reluctantly and took off my gateman's uniform and put on a T-shirt and a pair of jean trousers as she always complained about the stupid oversized uniform.

I was ushered into the house by one of the maids. I saw her in the dining where she was having her lunch.

She invited me to join her at the table and I complied clenching my jaw in frustration. I felt like grabbing her and kissing her right there and then but I shook the thoughts off immediately.

I settled down opposite her to eat the pasta that I had dished out from one of the giant plates on the table only to find her obviously lost looking at me as if it was the first time she set eyes on me.



I scoffed inwardly as I ate the food uncomfortably.

Did she invite me here to engage me in a staring contest of some sort.

Okay, let me take her up on that offer. 'Game on' I yelled inwardly and fixed my eyes on her beautiful face. Those brown eyes matching with her slightly brown hair made my heart skip a beat.

After looking at each other for three minutes straight, with our faces just a few inches apart, we were interrupted by footsteps approaching the direction of the dining. It was one of the maids whom she had told me was her friend coming to clear the table.

I'm sure she saw the weirdness that was going down. I cleared my throat nervously and pushed the plate towards the maid.

I took a glass of water and downed it in a single gulp.

'Come with me' she said breezily and I got up from the dining following her lead.

She opened the front door and walked out with the same breezy attitude as I kept following her.

We got out of the house, after walking for a short distance to the east side of the building, I saw a sign saying: 'Private Area' It suddenly dawned on me that she was taking me to the swimming pool where the only staff allowed were the cleaners.

The pool was a wonderful sight to behold. It was like a smaller version of the Atlantic ocean was before me. I smiled for the first time today. I was only brought back to reality when I heard her voice.

'Its beautiful right?' she said in a whisper with her head rested on my shoulder.
Woah!

'Ive been informed that my mum did that to you, I mean your lip and I'm very sorry for the unfair treatment' she apologized on behalf of her mother, I'm touched.

'And Im sorry about yesterday, Judas, I mean Jude is a jerk and he's nothing to me.'
'Theres no need to be sorry Rie, first of all, you're not in control of your mum's actions and secondly it's not my place to dictate who you hang out with.

'So you're not mad at me?' she asked with a pout.
'Why would I be mad at you?' I said trying to keep my cool.( I was really jealous about the way that guy was holding her hand. That should have been me doing that)

She gave me a hug and kissed me on the cheek squealing like a stuck pig before she quickly disengaged and placed both hands on her mouth apparently shocked or embarrassed by her own actions.

I was not really surprised because I can't blame her. She has been all over me ever since she met me. She even said she loves me.

I quickly turned round to look at her with a smile. My next line of action equally surprised me as well. I opened my arms and invited her for a proper hug.

The next thing she said shocked me:
'Francis, I want you to kiss me!!

EPISODE 9:


Marie’s POV

I got into my room and locked the door behind me.
My phone was on my bed. I jumped on the bed and carried it up only to find out that I had a missed call from my dad about a minute back. I decided to return his call.

When I was done with the call, I opened my Facebook messenger app and placed the video call to Francis. He picked up almost immediately and I could see his smiling face on the other side as he kept waving at me.

He had a cut on his lip which made it swell slightly.

‘Whats wrong with your lip?’
‘I uhm… I don’t know. Maybe bad sleeping position’ He said with a shrug while scratching his head nervously trying to conceal the fact that he was lying before he stopped to take a look at my own face.

‘Its just rug burns’ I said before he could even ask.

We talked for a while but he seemed like he was pissed off about something. I had to end the call when he heard horns outside.

Looks like my mum is having guests.

A knock sounded on my door and I got up to see who it was. It was my mum asking me to come down and greet her guests. I rolled my eyes as I closed the door behind me and followed her downstairs.

It was the wife of the one of the commissioner for agriculture and her son Jude.(he looked more like Judas to me)

I finished with the greetings and was about to head back to my room when my mum urged me to spend some time with him. I tried to refuse but she furrowed her brows and glared at me.

He stood up and walked towards the front door and held the door open for me to walk through. I sighed and walked reluctantly outside as he closed the door and followed beside me.

We kept walking quietly until he decided to break the silence by starting a conversation.

 

I responded passively to all his questions. He reached out and held my hand as we kept walking. I didn’t want to stop him so I don’t seem rude.

Maybe my mum is trying to play nice and get a contract from their family or something, I didn’t want to spoil things for her.

As he kept blabbing about one thing or the other, I saw Francis.

 

He was helping Mr Okon mow the lawn. Immediately he saw me, he looked up and gave me a small smile but immediately, his expression changed to a sad one when he saw that Judas’ (I mean Jude) was holding my hand.

I tried to wriggle my hand free from his hold immediately but by then, Francis had already looked away so he didn’t see any of that.

I felt like slapping someone but I also felt like crying. I just succeeded in hurting the guy I love.

I turned and ran to the back of the house to cry somewhere and left Jude standing there speechless.

 

 BLACKMAIL

 

Marie’s POV

I finally sneaked into the house through the back door when Lucy told me that Jude and his mother just left. I didn’t want my mum to ask me why I left Jude outside.

 

As I walked slowly up the stairs, I heard my mum clearing her throat behind me and I knew I had to face the music. I didn’t know she was sitting down on one of the sofas.

 

‘I want you to have dinner with him on Friday’ she said as she adjusted herself in the sofa without even looking at me.

 

‘What if I don’t want to go?’ I fired back angrily.

 

‘Your dad baby girl ,You wouldn’t wouldn’t want to lose him’ she answered coldly and picked up the remote control and turned on the TV signalling the end of the conversation.

 

I continued climbing up the stairs holding back my tears until I got to my room and burst into the bitter tears that I’ve been holding back now.

 

My mum has been blackmailing my dad for the past fourteen years ever since she got hold of evidence that my dad had been involved with drug dealers in the past and he had actually started his business using drug money.

 

After the divorce, he had given her fifty million naira as compensation for her to keep her mouth shut and she promised not to ever bring it up.

 

She even handed over the evidence to him but had made other copies which she has been using to manipulate me to do whatever she wanted.

 

The love I have for my dad is the only reason I have to go through all that she is putting me through. That’s why I’d do anything to keep him out of jail.

 

I cried so much that it felt my eyes would pop out of my head.

 

Not long after, a knock was heard on my door and I got up wiping my eyes to see who it was.

 

It was Lucy. She doesn’t know about the issue with my dad and mum.

 

She gave me a hug and patted my back consoling me. I’m sure she thought I was still upset the whole Jude issue.

However, she had something important to tell me.

 

She told me about how my mum slapped Francis in the morning because he delayed in opening the gate for her. (That explains the cut on his lips. It was definitely caused by her diamonds hitting him)
I felt so mad at her and equally sorry for Francis and embarrassed about my mum’s behavior.

 

I need to apologise for this before he starts to think that I’m like her.

 

I’m nothing like that woman. I wonder what my dad saw in her.

EPISODE 13:


�️Ivy

 

It's currently my birthday. Yonas, Maya and I are in the mall doing some birthday shopping. It's all Yonas' idea anyway.

 

I'm already exhausted from trying on multiple clothes and shoes. As much as I try to deny it, I hate shopping.

 

I was in the Fendi section where Yonas was busy trying on jackets.

 

"Can we go home already?" I asked sounding like I was going to cry any minute.

 

"Just a minute, hope you've gotten everything you like?" He asked as he picked out the same jacket in different colors.

 

Thing is, Yonas spends recklessly on clothes like it's nothing serious. He sometimes goes as far as customizing his own outfits.

 

He stood in front of the full size mirror as he put his shades on and picked up the jackets he had selected and we walked out of Fendi to the payment point.

 

"That was very funny" I laughed so hard as I walked into the living room dropping the shopping bags on the floor.

 

It's 7 in the evening and we are just returning home from Po's place where a few of the guys came around to drink a toast to me. Gangsters don't cut cakes.

 

Maya relaxed on the couch as she was feeling some headache, back and waist pains. I'm guessing she's just stressed out.

 

I helped her get comfortable as I took the bags inside.

 

I came back into the living room to find Maya laughing with someone. It wasn't just anyone, it's Trevor. My mood changed immediately!

 

"Look who we have here." Maya sings as I walk into the room.

 

"What are you doing here Trevor?" I asked sternly with a frown on my face and my hands on my chest.

 

"I came to say happy birthday to you." He says getting up from his seat and walking towards me.

 

He hands me a Chanel shopping bag which I hesitate in collecting.

 

I took the bag from him and examine it's contents.

 

"Thanks but no thanks." I reply and roll my eyes.

 

"I guess... I...uhm... I'll see you around then." He stutters scratching his head.

 

"Goodnight Trevor." I inject icily and turn to walk out on him but he immediately grabs my arm and pulls me.

 

"I know I messed up and I...

 

"Argh!! My water!!" Maya yells cutting him off.

 

"Are you okay?" We both ask simultaneously as we rush to where she was now sitting up on the couch.

 

"No, I think the babies are coming!" Maya responds through gritted teeth huffing and puffing.

 

"But it's not yet time!" I shrieked in fright.

 

"What? Did she just say babies?" Trevor asks panting in fright.

 

"Yes dummy, we're expecting twins." I fired back angrily as we helped her up.

 

"You've missed a lot Trevor" Maya manages to say in what sounded like an angry yell as we continued supporting her out of the house.

 

We managed to get her out of the house and into Trevor's car. I got into the passenger side with Trevor behind the wheel. The engine roars to life as we pull out of the driveway and get on the road heading to the hospital.

 

We pulled up in the hospital parking lot and I rushed out of the car into the hospital to get the nurses.

 

I returned with the nurses who were pushing a stretcher to where Trevor had parked the car.

 

The nurses placed a loudly screaming Maya on the stretcher and pushed back inside with Trevor and I trailing behind.

 

According to the doctor, Maya's cervix was not wide enough to get the babies out. She needs to be delivered through a C-section.

 

I'm really scared right now. I've never been so scared in my entire life before. I don't want to lose her.

 

I'm currently dressed up in some funny hospital wear as I put my mask on, and follow the doctor and nurses into the surgical suite where Maya had been earlier taken to.

 

Trevor was pacing round in the long hallway. Our eyes met and I only nodded at him as I walked into the room with the doctor and nurses.

 

A minute into the surgery, I could no longer bear to watch them slice her up. I thought I was strong enough, but I wasn't.

 

I ran out of the room to Trevor who was now sitting on one of the waiting chairs.

 

"I couldn't do it." I sniffed as I buried my face in Trevor's shirt.

 

He held me in his arms as he stroked my back soothingly calming me down. I felt like falling asleep in his arms at that moment.

 

I wonder how Trevor manages to make me feel like all the problems in the world are just fantasies.

 

"It's gonna be okay." He says as he pulls out of the hug but still holding me close to himself.

 

He lifted my face up and cups my chin before caressing my face with his right thumb.

 

He brought his face closer to mine and I knew what was coming next.

I close my eyes and give in to the kiss. It feels like the first time we're kissing, It feels real, like we're really together. But we're not together, we'll probably never be.

 

As these thoughts roamed my mind, I pulled away from the kiss and looked away from him.

 

I was very stupid to let his sweetness fool me. I swore not to talk to him again but now, I'm kissing him in the hospital hallway of all places.

 

He tried to hold me again but I shrugged him off. I can't even look him in the eye right now.

 

 

"I'm sorry for turning on you like I did. It was foolish of me I'll admit it." He pleads and holds my face turning it towards him.

 

"I should have let you explain but I was infatuated with Halle's curves."

 

"Everytime I looked in the mirror, all I saw was a fool who threw away the wheat and went after the stubble." He adds with a wry laugh

 

"I love You Ivy." He drops the bombshell causing my eyes to widen.

 

"It took me so long to get that off my chest." He continues after an awkward silence before heaving a sigh of relief.

 

"What about Halle? Huh?" I asked instead.

 

"We broke up because I realized that you are the one. Others are twos and threes baby, you're the one." He replied and his voice collapsed into a whisper.

 

As soon as I heard that Halle was out of the picture, I felt like screaming for joy and jumping on his laps and kissing him with so much passion totally but we were in the hallway and I don't want to cause a stir.

 

He held me close hugging me tight before proceeding to claim my lips for another kiss.

A few people passing by looked our way but we cared less.

 

We only regained a little bit of sanity when Trevor's phone rang. It was Yonas calling.

 

"I told him earlier that we was at the spill with Maya." He said and I nodded before he picked up the call.

 

"Yo, where you at dawg?"

 

"I'm outside the hospital. Hope I ain't gonna run into any dead people?"

 

"Nah, ain't no corpses on here brahh. It's all clear."

 

"Okay, I'm coming in."

 

"Yo-yo and his fear of hospitals." Trevor chuckles as he drops the call while I scoffed and shook my head.

 

 

In a matter of seconds, Yonas walked into the hallway where we were nervously with a bunch of flowers earning some laughs from us.

 

"Shut up!" He barks as he sits beside Trevor

 

"Where are they?" He asks as he hands me the flowers.

 

"Still in surgery." I replied feeling pained.

 

"It's gonna be okay." He reassured me as we got talking.

 

About an hour or two later, the doctor walks out of the theater sweating profusely followed by a nurse. Oh God! I hope it all went well. I can't lose her.

 

"Shhhh..." I heard Trevor whisper to me as he held me in his arms. I guess I must have said that out loud.

EPISODE 8:


Francis’ POV

 

I was woken up the next morning by the sound of my new phone ringing.

 

I picked up immediately I saw the caller ID ‘Babe’. She was the only one who has the number anyway.

 

Her voice on the other end of the phone sounded like she was still in the bed.

 Good morning Rie

 Morning Frankie, how are you doing?

 I’m good and you?

 I’m okay. I just wanted to hear your voice this morning. I’ll video chat you once I’m done with breakfast byeeee love you…

 Bye. Wait… what?
Before I could say anything else, she had already disconnected the call giggling.

She just said she loves me? Is she even listening to herself?

I lay there in the same position as if I was frozen.

 

Loud honking of horns outside the gate gets me back to my senses as I rushed out of the room to open the gate knowing fully well that it was my boss returning home.

 

After opening the gate, the cars started driving in slowly as I waited for them to get in so I can close the gate again.

 

The glasses unwinds and the boss pops her head and calls me. She doesn’t even know my name.

I ran up to where she was and she gave me a resounding slap for making her wait outside the gate for long.

She wasn’t there for up to a minute.

I felt so bitter as I clenched my jaw in anger, I felt my boiling blood rushing but I dared not move or say anything.

 

Stuck to the floor, I felt embarassed, broken, insulted and rooted to the ground as the cars started driving into the long driveway.

 

After they were a bit far off, I was able to walk back slowly to where the gate was still open to close it.

 

If only I could survive for nineteen more days when my salary will be due, I’ll definitely quit.

 

Even though the money was not enough to solve my problems, I was just fed up.

It’s not the first time she has done it though.

 

I kept scratching my head as I walked back inside with my head down. I needed to call my sister. Thank God Marie had recharged my phone with twenty thousand naira worth of airtime, I could stay on phone for the rest of my life.

 

Marie’s POV:

I just got off the phone with Francis but I wasn’t ready to get out of bed. I can’t believe I just told him that I love him, I hope he didn’t hear that! I thought to myself as I rolled over on my stomach and tried going back to sleep but that was not going to happen as a soft knock landed on my door. It was Lucy as usual.

 

‘I’ll be out in a moment Lulu’ I answered as I tried getting out of bed but my legs were tangled in the blanket causing me to fall to the floor with a heavy thud.

 

Thank God for the Asian rugs on the floor. They absorbed most of the pressure or I would have ended up with broken bones.

 

I was finally able to get up and free myself from the blanket as I walked sorely into the bathroom. I looked at my face in mirror and discovered that I had mild rug burns on my arm, my leg and my face. I looked really roasted. I sighed as I finished brushing my teeth and stepped into the large bathtub for a warm bath.

 

By the time I got down to the dining, I found my mum already sitting. (When did she even return?)

There was broken glass on the floor and a spill as well. One of the maids was on her knees opposite her crying and begging my mum.

 

As I finished descending the stairs, the front door opened and two security men rushed in and carried her out of the house as she screamed and begged for mercy.

It all happened so fast!

 

I didn’t need to ask my mum what just happened, it’s obvious that she dropped the glass and mum fired her. Such a nasty temper.

 

‘Good morning mum and welcome back’ I greeted as I sat down and started eating without even looking at her or waiting for a response from her.
I wasn’t interested in finding out when she got back.

 

‘Morning’ she finally responded icily and got up from the dining angrily and walked towards the kitchen probably to fire more people.

 

She didn’t even notice the rug burns on my face. ‘Mother of the year!’ I scoffed inwardly as I dropped the glass of water I was drinking from and got up from the dining.

 

I think I’ve just lost my appetite.
I walked back to my room to make the video call I had promised Francis. That’s definitely going to make my mood better.

EPISODE 7:


Marie’s POV

The next afternoon, I was resting on the balcony waiting for Francis to arrive as I had already sent someone to go and get him.

 

As my eyes kept focusing on the direction of the gateman’s post, I saw him approaching the main building with the maid I had sent to go get him since it always seems like a bad omen to go get him myself.

 

I smiled as I turned to get down clutching the smart box I had in my hand tightly on to find Lucy standing behind me with a confused expression.

 

I almost jumped out of my skin.
‘Lulu!! I half yelled and all she did was laugh while I held my chest.

 

I turned to look down to see if Francis had heard me screaming only to realize that they had already walked inside the house.

 

‘You like him don’t you?’ she said with a silly giggle and punched my arm playfully.

 

I smiled and nodded as she held the door open for me to walk through. She was going to figure it out sooner or later anyway so I didn’t even try to deny it.

 

I got down to find him waiting already in the small sitting room.

 

After his greetings, I gave him the package I was holding earlier and asked him to only open it when he gets back to the gate post.

 

I tried to bring up different conversations but it looked like he wasn’t in the mood so I just decided to let him go and sort himself out.

 

He thanked me for the gift and left.

 

Now let me tell you about the package:

When he told me he didn’t have a phone, I felt very unhappy and so, I sent Sam my driver to get him a new phone with registered and recharged sim cards and my phone number already saved.

 

After waiting for some minutes without seeing his call, I decided to try calling him instead.

 

Francis’ POV

I was feeling very down today as I haven’t heard from my sister in so many days since I started working here.

 

I had given her the small Nokia phone I had so she could communicate with me when I get a new phone after getting my salary.

 

It’s just ten days since I started working here and I still have twenty more days left before I can get my salary. I felt bad that I didn’t get to hear from her and mum for so long.

 

They were the reason I was working here in the first place; being a gateman was the only job available after I got fired from my former job (thanks to women issues).

 

I had a family to take care of and I couldn’t just let it pass me by.

 

Though the pay is good, I don’t think I’ll be able to stay here for long as the boss has a way of walking over people like you’re nothing.

 

As I sat on the small bed thinking, my mind went back to the package Marie gave me and I decided to see what it was.

 

As I removed the wrapping, I saw the popular Apple logo and my mouth opened wide, my eyes almost popped out of their sockets. It’s an iPhone 11 pro max. The best iPhone brand so far.

I quickly opened the box to see the gold plated and glass covered beauty inside. It had three cameras and the screen and the back of the phone was covered with glass.

 

I felt like screaming and crying right now.

 

I kept flipping the phone around in admiration and tried taking a picture. I heard it had the most powerful camera ever.

 

I picked up the phone with shaking hands as I mumbled some words of thanks to God and my beautiful benefactor.

 

I pressed the power up button and the screen came alive and immediately, a call came in from ‘Babe’ and that was when I realized that there was already a sim card with contacts inside.

 

But who is ‘babe?’ I queried myself as I picked up and place the phone on my ear.

I was thinking you were not going to ever open it. The caller said and I recognized the voice. (It was Marie of course)

 Sorry, I just opened the box! I’m really grateful for this, I wasn’t expecting it, thank you and God bless you Rie! I said all in one breathe.

 It’s nothing Francis. I wasn’t happy when you said you didn’t have a phone so I decided to help out. It’s no big deal.

 Thanks Rie. I don’t really know how to thank you enough.

 It’s okay just text me when you log in all your accounts. I’ll send you my social media handles so you can link up.

 Okay thanks!

 Alrighty byeee she says excitedly before ending the call.

 

If I didn’t know better, I’d say she sounds more excited than I am.

 

The phone was worth half a million naira as I found out later on Google. This girl is something else!!!

 

Right now, I’ve followed her on IG already and I’m scrolling through her beautiful photos. Gosh! This girl is so hot. I mean drop dead gorgeous!!

 

So many admirers, mostly celebrities and blue badges in her comments asking her to text them. She is even snubbing their comments.

 

She has a whooping 4.9 million followers and a blue badge already.

 

I sent her a DM and it was as if she has been waiting for me to do so as she replies within a split second.

That’s how we spent all night chatting and I even skipped dinner for this. I wasn’t even able to call my sister.

 

If I don’t take my time, I might end up falling for her and getting myself into more problems and troubles than I’m already in.

 

I must make sure that never happens for my own good.

EPISODE 12:


�️Ivy

"So you've vowed not to talk to me right?" I asked Trevor as I dropped my phone back into my jacket pocket.

And as expected, he didn't say anything in reply so, I asked him to pull over.

I mean all through today's transactions, I was the one doing all the talking and negotiations while he only counted up the money and did the driving.

"You and I are not going anywhere unless you tell me whatever it is that's got you acting this way." I yelled angrily at Trevor grabbing his shirt.

"What did you say to Halle the other night when you suddenly decided to run back home?" He blurted out sounding very annoyed.

"What do you mean T?" I asked sounding confused. Last I checked, Halle was the one who came at me.

"I got back inside to see her crying her eyes out and she says you were behind it." He yelled almost bringing the roof down.

I cussed under my breath as I looked at him in sheer bewilderment.

Halle is a liar and a good actress and I must commend her for that.

"I don't know what you are talking about Trevor." I said in my defense.

"Fine, you wanna play that game with me? You think I'm dumb or sum? You know what, I done witchu Ivy! And from now on, you better keep your distance." He blurted out all in one breath before igniting the car and driving back to the ATL.

Having made our returns to Po and Yonas as well as grabbing our commission, Trevor informed Po that he no longer wants me to be his partner.

Thing is, when he's angry, he talks and acts without thinking. Po reluctantly assigned Ken to work with him while I was assigned to Max.

I went home angrily that afternoon after being thoroughly interrogated by Po and Yonas on the reason for the sudden split. I was as clueless as they were about the whole situation.

Yonas offered to drop me off at home where I could get my car and then head over to work.

Today is a bad day. I can't believe that 5 years of friendship could be watered down the drain by a girl who he met just weeks ago.

I got home from work that evening feeling really upset and tired.

Maya had made dinner and I'm grateful that I had her around.

¿cómo estás bebé?
(How are you baby? ) I asked as I gave her a hug.

estoy bien. ¿Cómo estuvo tu día también?
(I'm good. How was your day as well?) She asked.

"Was really bad." I responded as I took time to fill her in while over dinner before we finally retired in for the night's sleep.

� Trevor

I stared at my reflection in the mirror for the umpteenth minute. I felt like a fool.

I still find it hard to believe that Ivy actually told Halle to stay out of my life or she will force her to. Why? Because she's the right person for me? Wow!

I was once upon a time in love with Ivy but she never gave me that chance and now I finally find a girl and she wants to ruin it? No way!!

It's Sunday and I'm going to see her again. I'm going to do my best in ignoring her. That's my plan and I'm going to execute it to the best of my abilities.

I finished up in the bathroom and got dressed ready to head out.

At The Trap:

I pulled up and got down from my car ready to watch some action.

Actually, Ivy and the boys are currently playing basketball and Ivy is scoring so many times already. I must admit that she's really good at everything she ventures into.

She only looked my way once today and since then, she hasn't spared me another glance.

She really looked cute in her sports bralette and black basketball shorts and her hair tied up in a tight ponytail.

But I'm still mad at her though.

�️Ivy

The past days, I've been doing a lot of work to avoid Trevor and I'll say it worked.

I don't even spare him any glances whenever he's close by and I don't have any time to argue with him or find out whatever was eating him up. I'm going to enjoy my new life as much as I can.

� One Month Later,

I'm currently sitting in the car with Max (my new partner) while waiting for a client.

We're currently scrolling through Google trying to decide on a great tattoo for Max.

"I still think you should go with that octopus design." I said as I was starting to get bored already.

"I liked the shark though." He said pointing the phone screen at my face.

"Oh please!" I exclaimed tiredly and rolled my eyes.

Thing is, all of us in the gang had the ritual of getting animal tattoos.

Po has a polar bear tattoo, Yonas has a scorpion tattoo, Trevor has a wolf tattoo, I have a squirrel tattoo, Katie has a peacock tattoo,etc

"And that's just a stupid dolphin you showed me there." I added with a little chuckle.

"Seriously!" He replied and took a second look at his phone.

"Fine, the octopus then. So, what plans do you have for your birthday?" Max asks jolting me out of my thoughts.

Oh, that reminds me, my birthday is coming up in a few days and I don't really feel like throwing a party or anything.

"Ion know. I mean I don't..." I was cut off in mid sentence as I saw our customer's car approaching.

"About time." I mutter somewhat annoyed as I undo my seatbelt and open the car door stepping out while Max does the same.

Manny is the customer. How sweet!

I got down from the car blowing bubbles on my gum as Manny approached our car.

"Hola Mamacita." He greets in an annoying high pitched voice as he gets closer to the car.

"You always keep me waiting Manny and you know I hate being held up." I replied coldly ignoring his greetings.

"I'm sorry Squirrel dear, can't blame this old man much." He replies with a chuckle.

"Maybe this old man needs to retire." Max says earning a high-pitched laugh from Manny and a scoff from me.

"I see you got a new side kick." He exclaims as if he was just noticing Max.

"What happened to pretty little wolf?" He adds sarcastically

"The moon ain't getting full anytime soon" Max responds and again earns another laugh from Manny while I simply rolled my eyes.

"I like this one." He says amidst choking laughter

"Let's get this done with Manny. I get bored...

"Easily, I know, I know!" He concluded cutting me off and raising his hands in surrender.

We concluded the exchange and he even left a $2,000 tip for Max. They really got along quite well I must say.

"Don't itch for a share." Max jokes waving the money at my face.

"Oh please!" I reply with a little chuckle shrugging his hands off.

The drive home was full of laughter as we got back and made our returns to Po and Yonas before Max finally dropped me off at home.

I was going to stay home today and take care of Maya. She wasn't feeling very well. The pregnancy is currently in the second week of the 8th month.

Truth is, though I'm still very much in love with Trevor, I won't waste my time thinking too much about him or getting worked up because he's on his period or whatever, I'm too tough for that y'all.

EPISODE 6:



A LITTLE DANCING

Marie POV:

Lunch with Francis was an amazing experience for me. I enjoyed every bite and mouthful. But my mood changed when he had to return to work.

 

He had been inside for some hours so, I reluctantly had to let him go. I asked for his phone number only for him to say that he doesn't have a phone. Unbelievable!!

 

Immediately he left, I dialled Sam's number (Sam's my driver). I went into the Sitting room and sat down waiting for Sam to arrive.

 

A moment later, there's a knock on the front door and Lucy who was now helping me braid my hair, got up and went to answer the door.

 

'It's Sam' she announces as she walks back inside with Sam following closely behind her.

 

I told him to wait for me in the sitting room upstairs while I go to get something from my room.

 

By the time I returned from my room, Sam had settled down comfortably in one of the sofas and was holding a glass of juice.(Which I'm sure Lucy gave to him)

 

'I need you to do something for me' I said after settling down in a sofa opposite his own as he dropped the glass and paid attention to what I was about to say.

 

After I had finished giving him the instructions on what I needed him to do for me, he left and I went back downstairs to the sitting room where I found Lucy dancing and singing along to a song that was being played on YouTube Music on the large Digital TV screen that occupied half of the wall it was plastered on.

 

It was funny to see her holding the hair brush she was using earlier in brushing my hair as a microphone as she sang along.

 

It was a song done by Chris Brown and Tory lanez it had a reggae and dancehall vibe to it and as a fan of reggae, I went closer to the screen to see the title. It was a song called 'Lurkin'

�Chris Brown:
Put it in my face
I'll be alright
Make your legs shake
Guess I'm doing it right
Just gimme a kiss
It's a late night
You can see it in my eyes
Baby I'm lurking...

 

On and on the song kept going.

 

It was awesome and I joined her in dancing until the song ended and another track started playing.

 

We finally relaxed amidst loud laughter and giggles as we went back to hair business.

 

Lucy is the sister I never had. She makes me laugh, knows me better than my own mother and offers such great advice anytime,any day.

 

She knows almost all of my secrets except the one secret that I've never been able to tell anyone else.

 

I blabbed a little bit about me and Francis and as usual, she made me see the pros and cons of being friends with him and having anything more to do with him in future.

EPISODE 11

�Maya

It's been a week already since I moved in with Ivy.

I never thought that I would ever feel happiness again. When I got pregnant, the goal was to deliver and give the baby up for adoption. But now, I have Ivy who loves me like family and is able to afford a great future both for me and my baby.

I stood there thinking and looking out of my window with my hands stroking my bulging stomach when I heard Ivy yell out my name asking me to open up the front door.

I hurried out of the room and got into the living room where I unlocked the door to find Yonas at the door wearing a big smile and holding a cute little puppy.

He held his arms open for a hug and I hugged him happily as he said that the puppy was for me.

I unlocked from the hug as I took the puppy from him happily and ushered him inside.

Ivy came down a little while later to find me holding the puppy and guessing up names for it.

Yonas was laughing heartily at the last name I mentioned.

"You can't name him Max because I have a friend named Max." He said amidst laughter.

"Tell me that fella is mine." Ivy said while taking a seat beside Yonas.

"Wish I could." Yonas said and we both burst out laughing all over.

"That was funny." Ivy responds sarcastically as she couldn't get why we were both laughing.

"I wanted to call him Max and Yo says y'all know a person named Max." I responded as I noticed the confused look on her face.

"Dear God!" She exclaimed and joined in laughing.

"Okay so what should we name the little guy?" Yonas asked after the laughter subsided.

"Uno... I'm gonna call him Uno" I concluded taking the dog from Ivy.

"What's that mean?" Yonas asks cluelessly

"It means one." Ivy interpreted.

"I'll get you a name tag for him then." He added with a shrug.

"Thanks again Yonas." I exclaimed excitedly before exiting the room giving them some privacy to do their talking while I walked out with my new friend.


�️Ivy

"So how's it going with your 'aprendiz'?" Katie asks making air quotes at the word 'aprendiz'.

"Been an amazing and interesting week with her around." I responded with a smile.

"How's the baby?" I continued.

"Developing" Katie responded and stifled a laugh.

"Oh wow!" I replied and we laughed a bit.

"Here's more orders" Lily- one of our staff says as she walks into the kitchen with more orders interrupting our discussion.

Wednesday Evening�

I was about to knock on Trevor's door for the second time when it swung open revealing a handsome, smiling Trevor.

"Hey Squirt" I holler as a smile tugs on my lips.

"Yes ma'am" he replies sarcastically with a chuckle as he steps aside from the doorway to let me in.

I got into the warm living room and he drew me into a hug. I kept my face down to prevent him from trying to kiss me.

He unlocks from the hug as he leads me to take a seat in his comfortable couch.

"I was just watching some Netflix" he says as we settled down.

"Maya is crazy about this movie." I said as I stuffed a handful of popcorn in my mouth.

"That reminds me, how's she doing?" He asks sounding concerned.

"She's doing great. It's been awesome having her around." I replied with some excitement as I took the half empty bottle of Coca-Cola he was holding and drank a gulp.

"I should prolly get you a bottle." He says with a little frown earning a playful hit on the shoulder from me.

"Baby..." I hear someone call from upstairs as he attempts to stand up.

"I'm down here babe." He replies and turns to look at me with an apologetic expression.

"Why didn't you mention that you had your girlfriend over?" I ask with furrowed brows and hands folded on my chest.

"Sorry" he begs while I roll my eyes.

I could hear her every step as she descended the stairs and walked into the sitting room.

 "Watchu doing down h..." She ends mid sentence on seeing me sitting with Trevor on the couch.

"Babe, you remember Ivy right?" Trevor says trying to cut off the awkwardness.

"Oh yeah!" She replies standing akimbo.

"Lemme get you a bottle" Trevor says as he gets up from the couch and heads towards the kitchen.

"I'm seeing too much of you around my man." She blurts out rudely as she walks closer to where I was now standing.

"Don't worry hunny, if I wanted Trevor, I woulda had him 5 years ago." I reply icily as I take my eyes to Trevor who was returning to the room with a sweating bottle of Coca-Cola.

"I'm gonna go continue this movie at home where it's much less toxic" I muttered to Trevor as I collected the freezing bottle from him and head for the door with Trevor trailing behind me.

"What's up I..?" Trevor asks as we got outside sensing that something's up.

"Go spend time with your girlfriend Tboy." I replied coldly stressing the word 'girlfriend'

"Really?" He asks in a tone which indicated that I was sounded like I said something really ridiculous.

"Good night." I said instead as I shut my car door and pulled out of the driveway.

I turned up the car radio and 'Trollz' by 6ix9ine and Nicki Minaj rounded up as 6LACK's 'Balenciaga challenge' took over.

That reminds me, I bought a new phone for Maya. I increased the speed of the car to get home early enough so I can get it to her before she falls asleep.

It's currently Friday night and we're at Po's clubhouse for our usual Friday night party.

I was chilling with Yonas and Max who were busy making drunk jokes over the loud music when Trevor and his girlfriend walk in the door. The audacity!! Does he trust her that much to reveal his true identity to her?


"Hey Yo Wolfie brought a shawty!" Max yells to Yonas who was talking to someone else. All eyes on Halle, she must feel on top of the world right now.

Trevor was visibly frowning once he sighted me. I haven't seen him since Wednesday night.

They came over to where we were and greeted Yonas and Max totally ignoring me and took their seats. I couldn't help but roll my eyes as I saw the innocent look on Halle's face.

Some people are worst nightmares than snakes. I shook my head as I made to stand up from where I was sitting but a drunk Max pulled me back to sit down.

I was now stuffed between Yonas who was now busy texting with his phone and a drunk Max who was higher than the tree tops.

I also whipped out my phone and kept myself busy by texting Katie who was a few feet away in the exclusive VIP with Po.

Every now and then, I stole some glances at Trevor who was now glaring at me, making me feel uncomfortable. I wonder what Halle told him.

I can't wait for this party to come to an end.

After a long night of watching dancers at the pole, listening to plenty of new hip hop music and being continuously glared at by Trevor, the party came to an end for the rest of the people who attended while we held a brief meeting where assignments were shared among us for the next day.

As usual I'm supposed to ride with Trevor to deliver some merchandise first in Edgewood, then Decatur and finally Birmingham.

It was going to be a long day at work tomorrow. I understood perfectly why he wanted the two of us to handle these was because we always deliver according to expectations.

My only problem now is the fact that me and Trevor are not even on talking terms right now, and I still wonder what his girlfriend told him that got him acting up.

I hope this doesn't interfere with our jobs.

EPISODE 5:


Marie’s POV:

Me and mum had breakfast that morning together for the first time in a long while. It was awful as usual with multiple questions especially about my dad (the man she doesn’t even want to see) making me feel like I was a suspect in FBI investigation.

 

Breakfast finally ended and I was so relieved when she told me she was going to be gone for two days. What a relief that was as I’ll have some peace of mind and also some time with Francis. I couldn’t wait for her to get going already.

 

I felt like jumping up for joy when her convoy of three black cars finally drove out of the gate.

 

This time, someone else was opening the gate for them and not Francis.
(I didn’t even know how many gatemen we had)

 

“Where the heck is Francis?” I kept thinking as I stood there glued to the floor beneath me.

 

I opened the front door and walked down the tarred pathway determined to go and find him. I was thinking so much as I kept humming a Marley song that I wasn’t even looking at where I was going to until I bumped into one of the cleaners who was carrying a bucket of water. Oh no! Not again!!

 

The liquid splashed on the black tailored wide leg trousers I was wearing. What the heck? I shrieked as she screamed in shock and goes down on her knees begging me not to fire her.

 

I quickly told her to stand up. She was so scared thinking I’d fire her.(She’s mistaking me for my mother)

 

When she finally got up, apologizing for the hundredth time, even after I told her it was nothing,I noticed that she also had the water soaking her clothes even more than it did mine, I urged her to clean up as I went in to do the same.

 

When I turned around to go back inside, I remembered why I was outside in the first place and called her back making her flinch a bit.

I can’t believe what I’m about to say!

I just asked her to go and call Francis to the small sitting room upstairs. Oh boy!

 

I quickly went upstairs to change up as I wouldn’t want Francis to see me looking like I was just drawn up out of a well.
I wonder why this always happens when I try to go and see him.

 

I got out my room a few minutes later and walked down the hallway straight to where the small sitting room was to see him standing backing me. He was curiously running his eyes around the room.

 

I stood there with eyes following his body up and down. He wasn’t in his smug uniform today which made me smile inside. He had a t-shirt on making his firm muscles stand out.

 

As I was still stuck staring at him as if he just came down from the moon, I realized I was drooling as I felt a trail of saliva fall on my t-shirt.

I cussed under my breathe as I tried to get rid of it.

 

That was when he turned to look at me with a smile on his face. That was when I got the view of his six pack chest through the body fit t-shirt which were killing me.

 

How can one person have all this qualities?

He walked closer to where I was and pointed to my t-shirt which had Bob Marley’s picture printed on it before he continued:

‘You listen to Marley?’ he asked with surprise evident in his voice.
‘Well, yeah!’ I answered in a duh tone as I gestured him to sit down.

‘Are you also a fan?’ I managed to ask after he sat down.
‘Yeah! A big one!!’ he answered with a little laugh.

 

30 minutes later 

We talked at length about Marley’s life and music. We also talked about Skip, Julian, Ziggy, Damian, Rita, Stephen, Jo Mersa, Rohan and every other Marley out there.

 

I was surprised that he equally knew so much.

We sang some of their songs and laughed at each other’s voice as both were not the best.

The tension was high when he sang ‘Is this love’ which is my favorite.
I felt like kissing him there and then.

 

Finally, someone to share my craziness with. We also talked our lives and things we like.

I got to find out that he has a degree in Computer Engineering. This is not a usual Gateman you know.

 

Suddenly out of nowhere, I asked;
‘Why are you a gateman Francis when you have a degree?’

 

‘Because I have to earn money you know, not everyone is like you Rie who has everything.’ He says with a little laugh before he continues, ‘plus, I didn’t want to stay out work forever.’

 

He was right about that, I have never earned a dime in my entire life but I just looked at him with an eye roll which makes him laugh more and snicker.

 

‘I’m doing it for the meantime though the pay is good, I look forward to getting a better job someday, hopefully.’ He concluded.

 

As I wanted him to say more, Lucy came in to tell me that lunch was ready. With this, he decided to take his leave but I insisted he stays and take lunch with me!

 

With this his mouth went wide with shock. I know he wasn’t expecting that.

I looked at Lucy who was equally surprised but quickly dissolved it with a smile.

‘Let’s go’ I say to them as I pull Francis along with me.

 

I turn to look at Lucy who gives me a wink and I tried not to laugh.

EPISODE 10


�️Ivy

 

 

...and she agreed to come stay with me." I said as I concluded the narration of my story to Po and Yonas.

 

It was a bright sunny Tuesday afternoon and we were just chilling by Po's pool side having a little talk about Maya.

 

"I'm glad that you finally found her. It's like your dreams all came true" Po said after I finished the story

 

"Yeah me too" Yonas concurred

"Hey there's hair in my cup" he adds and spits out the drink in his mouth into the pool while he drops the cup on the floor.

 

"Shut up man" Po orders with a loud laugh and I soon join

 

"What did you expect?" I managed to say amidst laughter.

 

I was presently braiding Yo's hair. Even though he owns a classic men's salon, I've been his personal stylist ever since we met seven years ago.

 

"All done!" I added as I finished the last portion that I was working on.

 

"And you are a darling! So make a choice, Saint Laurent or Chanel? He beamed observing the hair in the small mirror in his hand.

 

"I'm going for Saint" I pout like a baby.

"Smarty" He high-fives me with a smile.

 

"Now get your spit outta my pool will ya" Po says and we burst out laughing all over.

 

Then we heard Bruno (Po's little poodle) barking from inside and the door leading out to pool opens, revealing boy wonder himself (I mean Trevor) holding him.

 

On sighting Po, he escapes from his hold and runs to him licking and wagging what remains of his cut tail.

 

"Get him off me" Po mutters struggling to prevent his drink from spilling only to end up spilling it on himself while I try to pull the excited little dog who had already peed on himself off his master.

 

This was so funny to watch. All of us burst out laughing including Po himself.

 

 

� Wednesday Night

 

Me and Yonas are currently sitted alone in a reserved VVIP section of a classy restaurant a long way from home.

 

I'm wearing the expensive Saint Laurent outfit that he bought for me yesterday as a thank you for braiding his hair.

 

Yonas braids his hair every week and always buys me stuff everytime. Sometimes, for no reason at all. He treats me like his little sister.

 

The outfit comprises of a black sequined jersey top and a pair of shiny black pants plus a pair of black stilettos and a black purse.

 

While waiting for the waitress to come over and take our orders, we were laughing so hard as we took turns to take pictures of each other making funny faces.

 

A little while later, the waitress arrived to take our orders. Yonas had taken a flower from the table and stuffed it in his mouth posing for another shot. But the sweet voice of the waitress interrupted our game.

 

"Good evening sir and madam, would you like to place your order now?" She said politely.

 

We both turned to look at her and picked up our menus. However, Yonas was occupied staring at the beauty before him.

 

Yeah! This waitress was really hot and mind blowing.

 

"I'm Yonas and this is my lil sis Ivy" He said turning fully to face the waitress while extending his hand for a shake.

 

She took his hand out of professional courtesy and shook softly for what seemed like forever.

This is interesting.

 

So they got talking and after getting her phone number, Yonas left her a 10,000 dollars tip.

 

Don't fall for Yonas cuz he's the biggest player I've ever met.

 

Yonas dropped me off at my house at about 10 in the night. I had to get home early since I now have Maya to look after.

 

About that, me and Maya are getting along pretty well. One of these days, I'm gonna take her to go meet Po and Yonas.

 

 

� Thursday Morning

 

I woke up early to prepare breakfast for me and Maya. I've not really been putting much into work at the eatery recently since Katie has hired two people to help her out. I mean, it's more of her place than mine.

 

"Today we have a lot to do bebé, we're going to see the doctor, go shopping and introduce you to a couple friends later on. How does that sound to you?" I asked Maya as I placed the dishes inside the sink.

 

"Sounds great, suena como un plan"

Sounds like a plan. She replied cheerfully.

 

"Perfecto!" I exclaimed excitedly as I dropped the dish and gave her a hug. I didn't think she'll easily agree to go see the doctor but she did and for that I'm just excited.

 

So after meeting the doctor, shopping for maternity clothes and meeting Po and Yonas who love her so much, we returned him a little exhausted in the evening to find Trevor's new car in my driveway. Speaking of the devil.

 

I managed to get a spot to park and got inside with Maya to meet him in the living room watching TV with a bowl of popcorn on his lap as usual.

 

"Look what the cat dragged in". I joked as I got inside dropping the shopping bags on the floor.

 

"Meow meow meow" he mimicked a little cat earning a scoff from me and a snicker from Maya. That reminds me, they haven't met before.

 

"Maya meet Trevor my ex best friend and Trevor meet Maya my Uhm god-daughter." I said sarcastically with a shrug.

 

"Ex best friend uhn?" Trevor queried raising his eyebrows a bit.

 

"Yeah, I mean kinda ignored me when you saw me at Po's place the other day." I fired as my face gradually turned red.

 

"That's a misunderstanding." He defended

 

"Oh wow. I misunderstanding, the kind that makes it impossible to return calls huh?" I fired on

 

"Or the kind that makes you suddenly stop letting me kiss you." He yelled and my eyes landed on Maya who was now sitting watching us with arms folded across her chest.

 

"Eso fue interesante"

(That was interesting.)

Maya comments with a chuckle and walks inside with the shopping bags.

 

"Is she...

"Pregnant, yes!" I cut him off before he could complete his statement.

 

"I wanted to say Spanish?" He defends. With this, I explained the entire story to him.

 

"And don't ask me if she's my long lost sister okay? I just wanted to look out for her..." I concluded my narration.

 

"Like Po did for you and I" he concluded.

 

"Yeah, like Po did." I repeat in a whisper as he draws me in for a hug.

We just sorted it out!

EPISODE 4:


Marie’s POV:
I sit and patiently wait for him on the swing playing a game on my phone as Glory; the maid I sent goes to fetch him.

 

As soon as they arrive, I ask Glory to leave us alone and beckon him to sit beside me which he does without hesitation.

 

I can tell he’s checking me out with the way he looks at me. He’s so attractive right now.

 

His pink lips now staring me in the face, his eyes like that of a little puppy and his smile is something to die for as it displays a set of sparkling white teeth.

 

He just told me his name is Francis, he has the sexiest voice I’ve ever heard and he’s so funny too. He looked hot even in the smug uniform he was wearing.

 

‘He’s irresistible’ I say to myself as I bite my lips and play with a few strands of my hair and what’s next? I can’t keep my hands off him as I keep hitting him just so I could feel his touch.

 

I felt like caressing those strong muscular arms of his but that would be a bad idea as it would be totally out of place. I don’t want it to look like I’m throwing myself at him. Some Guys don’t like that.

 

It feels like a minute ago since we started talking when I could hear repeated honking of horns at the gate where he’s supposed to be at, I also realize that my mum is finally home and he has to go.

 

He rushes off and leaves me there smiling foolishly. Gosh! This isn’t me!! I get up from the swing to go welcome my mum.

 

She gives me a hug and starts talking about how stressed out she is. Really?? Can’t believe that my grumpy mother just hugged me and I even went along with it.

Well that’s my mother for you; Never up to anything good and never talks or even thinks about anyone’s problems except hers!!
I scoff and follow her inside while the maids rush out to welcome her.

 

After a really awful dinner with my mum, I go upstairs to get some sleep but the only thing on my mind right now is Francis. I wish I could see him again tonight but that was not a good idea.

 

After staring at the ceiling for two hours straight, I finally fall asleep and dream of Francis and I.

 

In the dream, it appeared that we were already a couple and just as Francis was about to give me a kiss, a knock resounded on my door waking me up immediately.

‘He was just so close’ I thought as I slapped the bed angrily sitting up.

 

It was morning already and I could hear Lucy’s voice on the other side of the door inviting me down for breakfast.

 

I got up slowly and walked into the bathroom yawning as I went.

 

On days like this, being rich doesn’t bother me as I get woken up only when breakfast is ready.

 

I don’t remember ever washing a plate in my entire life even when I was in Boston.

 

Just as I got into the shower and the warm water hit my face, I remember Francis.

I might go crazy from thinking about him so much.

 

Even though my mom is still around, I’m gonna work my way around seeing him and being with him anytime I want to without getting interrupted by my mom.

 

Deep down, I was praying so hard not to go down there and meet her.

 

God only knows how much I loathe her questions and having her around in general.
