“As if I'm good in following instructions." “you don't have to obey me. I am done trying to talk you into things. I'll force you, it's for your own good."There was silence.I heard the cry of a baby and that sound propelled me into the future and with the way Gabriel smiled as he was staring into open space, I knew that he too saw what that baby was showing us." What do you think we'll name her." Gabriel said.“Who the fuck is her?."He tore his gaze away from the wall and looked at me.“Our baby."“It's a him. Our baby is going to be a boy."“I want a girl."“You'll have to wait, maybe the next try."“Oh, so they'll be a next try?."“Don't you want another baby?."He was grinning.“I do, I just never asked you because I thought you wouldn't. You're thinking of our future...To be honest, I know you'll be a great mother."“Thank you. I want a boy." I felt teary eyed but I held back my tears. His words touched my heart, I really want to be the best mother to my baby. “You're too lat
Gabriel.My car only had two seats, I wanted Cristela by my side. So I called a cab for the tourist and Dariel. Dariel was still unconscious, I pulled some strings and the hospital discharged him so that he would finish his treatment at home. A nurse would have to come every morning and evening. I didn't want that kind of interference in my life. My houses are extremely private, no one but Cristela Kylee and my security detail know the interior or location of most of them. This house here in Budapest was also private, I couldn't let anyone see it, not even Kylee. And I consider Cristela and I as equals, not two separate beings but one. No one except from me know the location of the house. I was eager to show it to her. The cab and I parted ways.“Do you think they're going to believe Dean?." Cristela asked looking out the window.I noticed that she winced as she sat up.“Rest." I said placing my hand on her shoulder and pushing her back to the seat.“What is there to not believe?.
Elise sneaked out of the house quietly. She was a grown woman, she could have just walked out and no one would stop her, not even the security guards at the gate.But, she did it to feel naughty. As if she was really not supposed to be going out but she wanted to break the rules. It wasn't hard to find a casino. The building was beaming with flashing lights. It was not too big but not small either. Some bikers drove past her and hollered sweet names at her.She blushed and whipped her hair like a diva. She felt like a diva, utterly and completely in control.She went to take a seat and as time went by, the game ended at some point. She was owing a man in a black jacket a hundred and twenty six thousand dollars. She owed another man with a pot belly and oily nose, three hundred and fifty five thousand dollars. She was glad that they were only two people she owed this time, there was a time she owed sixteen people money. Her purse was empty. The euphoria had cleared from her eyes and
CRISTELA“Where are we going?." I asked Gabriel.He had parked his car inside a building. He said it was the garage and I was wondering why the hell the garage wasn't attached to the house itself.“Because the garage is made of bricks and the house is made of glass."“Everything?." I asked.“No baby, not everything," he said with a small laugh. “I'm nervous."“Why is the almighty Mr Gabriel nervous?."“Because he's about to show his fiance a project that was very dear to him, what if she doesn't like it."I scoffed.“It's hard to not like anything you touch Gabriel."He laughed and tightened his hold on my hand.We came to the house, I stopped walking and he stopped too.His eyes roamed my face.“So?."I couldn't believe it was a house, it was like it was torn out of a sci-fi movie, those beautiful glass houses that showed what the future elite humans might build.I wanted to ask how much, but it was no use, I knew it was expensive.“It's beautiful."I could cry from just staring at i
I opened my eyes and the room was still covered in darkness. I tousled and turned but I couldn't go back to sleep.I sat up and reached for the curtain, before my fingers could touch them Gabriel startled me with his greeting.“Good morning."I trembled and he laughed.I picked my pillow and slapped him on his face with it.“Don't ever try that again, I thought a serial killer was in here with me." “I see you woke up on the right side of the bed."I hissed at him and he laughed.“How long have you been awake?."“I didn't sleep."“Why?." I asked turning to face him, my eyes had adjusted to the darkness.“Nothing." He said with a lazy smile.I took my pillow from where I was and raised it in the air threateningly.He couldn't stop laughing.I hit him with the pillow countless times and he would not stop laughing.“Why does this do nothing to you?." “Are you serious, this fluffy pillow is meant to hurt?."“Well, after hitting you so many times it should have at least, hurt you, a littl
'This chapter is for Choo Anna, Amanda Lahocki and Denise for your support, thank you'I heard the door of the car closing shut and I looked back to see Elise wearing her top over her head. I could see her bare chest from here. I ran towards the house as fast as I could. I entered through the back door and ran to the bedroom. Josef had his luggages out and he was packing.“There is another one." He said without looking up.He brought out an envelope from his pocket and threw it at my feet.I did not pick up up.“Josef, this is hilarious."He stopped and turned to me.“You think this is funny?."I closed the door, the room wasn't sound proof and his voice was high.“I didn't write this."“You expect me to believe your words?."“How can you prove that this was written by me, it's printed, I don't even know where the printer in this house is located?."“It confirmed my suspicions."I held the first note to my face.“Gabe," I said reading it out loud for him to hear how stupid it sounds.
Gabriel“Uncle Gabe!." Regalia squealed as she stood up and ran towards me. I caught her with my left her and put her back on the ground quickly before she started touching me all over.My dad snorted, I looked at him and his face was serious.“Where have you been?." Regalia asked.“I had to take care of something." I said, keeping my voice curt.“Too busy that you abandoned my son after smashing his face?." My dad asked angrily.“Dariel would be fine. Next time he'd watch his mouth."The tension between us was like burning wood. I could feel the heat in our stare, it's been years since I saw him, I left his house at such a young age and he didn't see me for years.I got a call from him when my company was fully established. He sounded desperate, he wanted to ensure I still remembered him, he didn't apologize for treating a kid so poorly.How could I forget him?.The only real people in my life is Cristela and Kylee, everyone else wanted or needed me for survival. Kylee worked for me
Kylee started crying all of a sudden. My shoulders jerked as I heard her sobs, I turned to see that she was really crying, I never knew Kylee could cry. She was a solid wall. Gabriel rushed towards her before I could swallow my ice cream. She was sitting on an arm chair and both of her hand was covering her eyes as she cried.Her body shook very hard and she was not trying to be quiet. It was an angry cry.I put my plate aside and went to stand in front of her. Gabriel shifted to the side to make space for me to console her. “Kylee, tell me what happened." He said quietly. She tore her hands away from her eyes and with a trembling finger she pointed to the table. I went towards the table and picked up two papers, both were printed.I handed one to Gabriel and read the one that had a date on it.I was speechless by the time I reached a quarter. Gabriel and I exchanged notes and reading the second one almost made me puke in my mouth.“He believed whoever wrote it." Kylee cried.I dro
