“How do you expect me to believe all what you’ve just said?” She pushed him away roughly “I really wish I could do more to make you believe me” he tried getting close to her again “I really love you Fidelia and I would do anything to prove this to you”“You really want me to foolishly believe you?”she asked as tears ran down her cheeks“Why on earth didn’t you tell me all this when we started getting close to each other” she paused and took a deep breath to keep her going “ you had to wait till it is obvious that I’m in love you right?”“From the first time I set my eyes on you Fidelia, I knew I wanted more than just friendship”“And I knew at some point I would have to tell you what exactly is going on in my life, I wouldn’t like I’ve tried but I never know when exactly would be the right time for me to do that, any day I see you I would always have the urge to come out clean but the fear of how you will react has always been a issue in my head and I.....”Tears wouldn’t stop fallin
He woke up late today again. It's 8:0'clockHe got out of bed as quick as he could and stretched out "arghhh" he felt pains as he moved his neck."What sort of pain is this?" he said to himself as he moved his neck gently.He slid his feet into the white soft fluffy slippers his daughter bought for him on his forty fifth birthday, and moved to the kitchen to take a cup of water, his daily early morning routine. The doctor told him it's good for his health."Grace" he called out after drinking water."Grace" he called out again. Louder this time"Sir, I'm coming sir" he heard the response from outside. She ran in seconds later."Good morning sir" she knelt down sharply as if she weighed nothing."I've told you to stop kneeling everytime" he told her as he made his way to his bedroom."You're my boss and...""Doesn't mean you should always kneel everytime you greet me" he interrupted her. He said as he walked into his room leaving her behind."Just make coffee for breakfast" he scream
"I've told you several times, I wouldn't let Tiana stay a minute with you" even though he was speaking through the phone to his mother he raised his voice to make it very sure his mother heard him clearly."But my son...."his mother tried to reply calmly" Son?" He laughed dryly"Very funny mother" he said sarcastically.She turned silent. There was no way she hasn't try to get her son back after the incident 20 years ago. "How else do you want me to tell you I'm sorry" she said to break the silence." I've tried all means possible but you never listen to me nor do you try to have a conversation with me, I know I was wrong but I'm still your mother." It was just so clear that she was crying as she said those words to him" I really still doubt you're my mother even after all these years" he paused " The only living hope I have is Tiana, now you want me to bring her to you so you'll ruin her like you did to me" he laughed dryly "You should know that would never ever happen mother"
"She hasn't called yet??"No, she hasn't" he sighed"You really don't need to get worked up yet, there's every possibility she didn't call her first before calling you" she really wished what she was saying was trueIt's always once in a month or twice in a month he and his daughter always have this issue and his mother would always be the one to trigger it.Jess sometimes thinks the mother usually do it on purpose. "I've told my mom to stop being stubborn about it, I wouldn't let Tiana have anything reasonable to do with her" he paused"Even till she dies""That's too much for you to say I think" she paused and looked at his face. She wanted to see his reaction to the statement she made.She noticed he didn't look irritated nor angry so she decided to continue."I really don't know what your mom might have done but I still think you should give her a second chance to redeem things" she waited for a response and it was like it wasn't coming"If she at least can't redeem things with y
Marcus couldn't stay till closing hour before he left the office. He felt so uncomfortable sitting there.He wasn't in the mood to do anything and he was sure he wasn't going to touch anything, so he just picked up his briefcase and left the office.He got home at exactly 3::00pm, Grace and even the gateman was surprised to see him.He stepped out of his car grumpily and matched him in the same mood. His mind was in turmoil."I wished I would just get knocked out" he was taking himself as he used unnecessary force to open the door.Grace heard him talking but what he said was incoherent to her."Are you talking to me sir?" Marcus looked at her "would you please get the hell out of my way miss""I thought....""I wouldn't repeat myself Grace" he knew better than to push her out of the wayGrace moved hurriedly from his way, confusion written all over her face.Marcus matched into his bedroom without looking back to check out the lady he threw into a confused state.Immediately he go
If a pin dropped right now it would be heard clearly to confirm how quiet it is.Tension was building up between them and none was ready to say a word to ease the tension."We're almost there" Marcus spoke out at last and that didn't help because Tiana didn't give a response.The rest of the ride continued silently."Pimmmmmmmmm" the blast of Marcus horn alerted John that a car was at the gate.He dropped the bread he was eating angrily and ran to the gate to see who was disrupting his meal. He stared at the car but couldn't recognise it ."Who are you looki....." He paused as he saw the person sitting behind the wheel"Good evening sir" he greeted and ran back inside to open the gate for Marcus to drive in."I'm so sorry sir" he apologized."There's no problem" Marcus assured him before he could say another word.Marcus found a spot to park his car beside his father's Buggati Divo. He smiled "I wonder why dad still spends money on things like this" Tiana was already down from the c
Christiana bid her grandmother good bye and headed straight to the sitting room where she left her father and grandfather."Where could they be?" Whatever anger she felt towards her father earlier on has now subsided and she felt she needed to apologize.She used the stairs, she was going to her grandfather's library. Getting very close to the library door she started hearing their voice even though what they were saying was incoherent to her.She got to the library and wanted to open the door "Father I'm going to tell her. I just need more time" that was her father's voice"I know you would, but do that very soon""I'm surprised the poor girl doesn't even know her mother is dead" she felt she was pierced in the heart by that word."I wonder the excuse you've been giving to her over these years""Don't make her think her mother is a bad person or maybe her mother divorced you or something like that since you never talk about her" that came as an advice"Everything is still fresh in m
Marcus jolted from his slumber as he heard a car drive in, he knew it wasn't Tiana driving but he sincerely hopedvsge would be in the car of whoever drove in.He waited impatiently for who so ever it is to come in.Few minutes later Jess stepped in with Christiana behind her.He was very much surprised to see both of them together at this time of the day but that wasn't the bone of contention to him right now."Tiana, I've been trying to reach you since you left Grandpa's house" he said moving towards her."Don't come close" she took a step back."Tiana, I'm very sorry for what happened earlier" he was really sorry this time around, anything could have happened to her while she was away."Don't come close to me and I really mean it" "Tiana this wasn't what we talked about" Jess spoke up, she could literally see the pain he was going through."I know your father has been inconsiderate all these while, but still you should hear him out first""I know this wasn't what we talked about bu
