Flora appeared before Hannah and she gestured for her to come to sit beside her, Flora went to sit gently beside the woman.
"What's your name, beauiful?" Hannah questioned.
"My name is Flora, ma," Flora answered.
"You can call me hannah," Hanna said with a broad smile. The look on her face was so affectionate. Like a grandmother looking at her granddaughter.
"Alright, ma," Flora said.
"I know you feel nervous that you got married to him, but Orville is a very good man," Hannah said.
"He's a good man!" Flora exclaimed.
"Yes, I have lived with his family for fifteen years so I can tell you that he's such a good man," Hannah said.
"I guess I'm lucky then, although there are articles about him that says he's a good and kind man but I find it too good to be true, many billionaires are always aloof and arrogant," Flora said.
"There are few that are really nice, one of them is Orville. I do hope that the both of you will really get along." Hannah said.
"We should, I'll be careful around him so there won't be any problem between us," Flora said.
"Great, can I prepare food for you?" She asked.
"Yes but I can help you in the kitchen," Flora said.
"No..." Hannah smiled," just wait for me at the dinning, I'll soon be done with the food. What should I prepare for you?" Hannah questioned.
"Maybe fried rice," she answered and they both walked out.
Hannah walked straight to the kitchen while Flora went to sit at the dinning table.
***
When it was late at night, Flora had showered and was laying on the bed. She was nervous since this would be her first night with a man.
If eventually the man had sex with her, he would find out she was not a virgin. How does she explain to him that she lost her virginity to surrogacy?
She sighed heavily, he had said he won't force her to do anything , she would have felt much better if they didn't have sex this night.
The door opened gently and orville appeared, he had a smile on his face," sweetheart, " he called and checked his wrist watch," this is ten minutes after 11PM. I thought you would have slept?"
Flora adjusted from her sleeping position into a sitting position and said," Erm...I don't sleep early."
"Okay, you can lay back dear, I want to shower," Orville said and walked inside the bathroom.
While he was there, Flora placed her right hand on her chest that was thumping inexplicably.
Soon, Orville was done showering.
Orville walked inside the room and wore a white bathrobe after which he laid gently on the bed.
Although Flora's eyes were closed, Orville could tell that she was not sleeping.
Flora was expecting a hand to touch her as Orville's first move in his attempt to have sex with her this night but after many minutes had passed without feeling a thing, she fluttered her eyes opened and turned her head only to see Orville laying with his eyes closed.
Was he asleep? Flora wondered.
Won't he make any move this night? Flora thought. Or did he plan on making the move in the middle of the night?
Flora thought for about forty five minutes and when she reasoned that Orville must have slept, she shut her eyes and soon fell asleep.
The early sun shone directly from the window and scattered it's ray across Flora's face, she fluttered her eyes opened but didn't see Orville beside her anymore.
She gazed at the time and saw that the time was 7:21AM. She doesn't sleep so late like this, maybe she slept so sound because of a better environment that she slept this night.
She checked herself to be sure that orville didn't have sex with her and she confirmed that she wasn't touched.
She heaved a sigh of relief and sat upright, she stretched her body and went to brush her teeth then wash her face with water before going back to lay on the bed.
Seems as if things are about to change for her. She used to wake up by 6AM every day so she can get dressed for her brother, take him to school before going to her school.
And on Saturdays and sundays, she had to wake up at the same time to cook for her herself and her brother before resuming work early by 7AM.
She placed her two hands on two different pillows as she laid with her chest to the bed, her two legs were spread leisurely. She laid carelessly thinking that Orville had gone out for work.
Afterall, he was a billionaire who had lot of companies.
But she jumped up into a sitting position when she heard the door creaked open gently.
He was surprised to see Orville carrying a tray containing cake in his hand and a drink.
"Good money, princess," Orville greeted calmly and went beside her, "I made a little research about you and found out you love cake. This morning, I decided to prepare a cake and a tea for you. I hope you like it?"
Flora felt like this has to be a dream. A billionaire serving her food? Is that even possible?
She pinched herself to come back from her fantasy but when she saw Orville chuckled slightly , she realized this was a reality.
Even if it was a fantasy, she would like to be in this fantasy forever.
"Thank you," Flora wanted to carry the tray from him but Orville spoke up.
"You can simply pick the cake and the cup of tea, that's just snacks, Hanna is already preparing breakfast for the both of us, " he smiled.
Flora picked the cake carefully and then the tea," thank you, Orville."
"You are welcome, sweetheart," Orville stood and went away with the tray.
It was only after Flora was done eating the cake and tea that Orville walked in.
"Did you love it?" Orville asked.
"Yes, it's delicious, thank you." She said.
"I had a dream about us when we were asleep, did you want to know what this dream is?" Orville asked.
Flora became curious and asked ," yes, tell me."
"I dreamt that we did a wedding ceremony and it was very great," Orville said and Flora blushed.
Orville added," I also dreamt that we had a twin."
Flora was forced to blush and giggle, she reasoned that Orville only wanted to engage her in a conversation, those dreams were just his fantasy.
Flora was inside her room on a Sunday evening, she had been given new school wears and she was arranging it all in the wardrobe.She heard some sounds coming from the living room, the sounds were not of two people otherwise she would have thought Orville was having a conversation with Hannah.It was as though three people were speaking. Since she was already done with what she was doing, she decided to feed her eyes on whom the third party was.She walked out of the room and saw Orville standing beside another lady who should be around twenty four years old. The lady had many expensive golds on and a heavy make up on her face. She looked fair and beauiful moderately.Hannah was at this time walking to the kitchen leaving Orville and the lady at the living room.Flora wondered whom this lady could be to him, perharps his sister, she thought and walked closer to them.Once Orville saw Flora, the smile on his
Flora fluttered her brow as she saw the look of a deep obsession on his face. She had only met Orville two days ago and he was this obsessed about her already.Flora swallowed the lump in her throat and didn't know what else to say."You can keep reading, sweetheart," Orville said and stood from the bed.He went to sit by a couch that was by a side of the room, he opened his laptop and began to review some of the activities of his company.Flora couldn't read for a while, instead, she kept stealing glances at him. He was backing her but he looked adorable.Flora wondered if this man had fallen in love with her so soon? Either he loves her or not, they would have to part ways after two months anyways. She wasn't ready for marriage.Flora read few more writings on her phone before falling asleep. When she woke the following day, she didn't see Orville in the room.She had no idea if he even slep
All through the hours at school, Flora wasn't really happy. She had an heavy heart. She was wondering what the following day would look like in school.Bennie was really her thorn in the flesh. Since she had no friend, she walked outside the school alone and sighted a familiar figure by her left sight.She walked towards him and realized that it was the driver who drove her to work. He must have been waiting around so he could drive her home."Are you done, madam? So I can drive you home?" He questioned."Yes...but, I want to check on my brother at the hospital, I haven't heard from him since I moved to Orville's house," Flora said."Mr. Orville said I must do whatever you want so I will drive you to the hospital, if that pleases you," the driver said."Thank you," Flora walked inside the car and told the man the particular hospial that her brother was. Soon, the man began to drive."Have you
Flora cried for few seconds before walking towards the exit of the car. It's a terrible feeling seeing the only person you have left in the world caring for a different somebody and abandoning you. The one who was supposed to be there for her is clearly against her.She cleaned her tears with her handkercheif and walked to where the driver's car was, she pleaded with the man to drive her to where her family hospital was and the man agreed.Once they arrived there, Flora waddled around the hospital and soon found her brother laying on the bed.Once Tony saw her, he called weakly and hopelessly," little sister, I'm in pain."Flora let tears flowed down her cheek, she doesn't like to cry before her brother but she could not hold back the tears today. She was very heartbroken. It hurts badly to see her brother in pain. She walked closer to him and placed her hand on his forehead," I made a mistake by trusting that beast w
Orville and Flora went to sit at the dinning table, "I hope you enjoy the food." Orville's voice was soft."Most definitely," Flora said gently. They ate quietly, Flora couldn't beleive that she would be able to eat despite the predicament that she was currently going through.Flora stood since she was done and said," I want to do some assignments inside.""Alright, sweetheart," Orville watched her walk away. He stole glances on her as she walked away.He loved everything about her and he won't let anything or anyone hurt her.While Flora was inside, she received a call from their family doctor and she answered, since Tony was at the family hospital, it was normal for her to receive a call from the family doctor. She only hoped that this call won't be a bad news."Hello, Flora," the doctor's voice came through."Doctor," Flora called."Well, your brothe
Orville wondered why Flora had not come out of the toilet for the past three minutes, he was worried and walked to the toilet. He planted a knock on the door and said gently," Flora!"It was only then that Flora came off her thought, "I'll be out now."Flora cleaned her face with a towel and then walked out, she tried as much as possible to hide her nervousness. It was even a good thing that they will divorce in the next two months.She hoped that before her belly start protruding as a prove to the public that she's pregnant, she would have divorced Orville.She can't imagine how Orville will feel if he found out that she was pregnant for another man? He would be hurt and probably chase her away.Indeed, Orville beleived that Flora was pure and a virgin. He even ordered one of his men to look into Flora's past and they didn't find anything bad about her.So Orville trusted her and was not rea
Flora didn't want anyone to know that she was married. She will only be mocked amidst her colleagues."Just give me two months, please," Flora said.Benine frowned, he didn't expect that he would be rejected by Flora. The fact that he came all the way from a different country just because of her and she's rejecting his offer, it really hurts him that he shut his eyes closed for a while.He left the card and the flower on her table and walked out of her class.Flora watched as Benine went to sit in his seat, it wasn't that she can't accept Benin's proposal since Benine was even her crush despite being her bully but she was married at this moment and she can't keep two men at the same time It will devoid her of peace.But it was really surprising that Benine offered to be in a relationship with her.Benine? The handsome boy who takes pleasure in bullying her?When it was lunc
Orville sat in the living room angrily, he crossed his legs and was staring blankly at the television before him. Although the television was on but Orville's mind wasn't there.About an hour later, a knock landed on the door and Orville pressed the remote of the door for it to open wide.Dennis walked in and said," sir, I made a detailed research on Benine and I found out that his father is the most dangerous Mafia boss in New York."Orville was surprised to hear that, he frowned deeply and said," are you scared to get Benine expelled?""I tried to but the management of the school declined with the claim that Benine's father was one of those who contributed immensely to the growth of the school plus Benine's father is still a major shareholder in the ownership of the school," Dennis explained.This was the first time that Orville's request from any firm would be turned down. He turned off the television
