SEAN The attraction I was feeling for Kenna intensified as each day passed and I had to force my heart into closing its eyes to whatever my mother or Monica was doing to her.The fact that I didn’t care made her sad but I wanted it to stay exactly that way. My heart wasn’t cooperating with me but because I am stubborn, it was easy for me to pretend and stay away from Kenna even though she tried to be friends with me.“You are nothing but my baby mother, an incubator to bring forth my child to me, so don’t try to be friendly or have a conversation with me”“If you need anything ask the elder maid or my mother!” I had shouted at her one day, even though I know my mother loathes her mere presence and wanted Monica to be in my house instead of Kenna, but due to all that I have gone through at the hands of women, I swore to stay away from anything or anyone that will hurt my feelings and trust again.My behaviour was hurting and making Kenna sad because she was always complaining to Brian
“We have a party to attend this evening,” Sean said as he opened the door to the room, he looked angry and I wondered why, I’m supposed to be the one angry.“Okay “I replied rolling my eyes at him. I was still angry after what he did yesterday. “I can’t believe I’m being treated like this, just yesterday he disgraced me at the bar and now he wants me to attend a party with him,” I murmured angrily as I walked up the stairs.“Arhhgg! I don’t even know what to wear for the party. I screamed in frustration as I searched through my bag for a dress to wear.“This is going to be one of those events where business partners and other shareholders will attend so I have to look my best,” I thought to myself while trying to pick a good outfit for the event.After a few hours of searching and testing all my clothes, I finally picked one, it was the dress Nikki bought for me for my last birthday. It was still good I said to myself as I started at my reflection in the mirror. “Just a little adjus
SEANAs I contemplated going into her room to teach her a lesson after she went to the party, I received a call from Brian.“You don’t know when to call Brian,” I said sounding angry at Brian.“What do you mean” Brian asked “Never mind. Why are you calling me at this ungodly hour?” I asked him trying to change the topic.“There’s a problem Sean….”“Problem? What do you mean there’s a problem, did something happen at the office?” I asked almost immediately. I’ve known Brian for years and I can tell this is serious from his tone.“The board members have fixed a date to make Anthony the CEO, they said you aren’t ready to settle down and they needed someone serious to take over and Anthony appeared to be the best fit,” Brian explained.“No! I can’t let that happen. I’ve worked so hard to get that company to where it is now,” I snapped. “They can’t possibly give my father’s company to Anthony.” I sounded angry.“Well, I got a tip from my insider and he said if you’re able to introduce a g
KENNA“Can’t believe I helped such an ungrateful man”, I said as I stormed into my room. Sean’s attitude surprised me. I was just trying to help because I noticed he hesitated and I saw his communication with Brain when he asked him to kiss me.The whole thing was beginning to look suspicious and I noticed the Anthony guy smiling as he watched us.“I had to do it not knowing I was helping such an ingrate,” I said as I sat in front of my mirror. I regret helping him, I should have just let them take away his company from him.******It has been days since the party. I noticed Sean was avoiding me and I gave him the space he needed. I need to go out and breathe fresh air, it so suffocating inside this house, I thought to myself, I then remembered what happened the last time I went out with Nikki.I picked up my phone and called Sean. “What is it?” I heard as he picked up the call from the other end.“Can’t you be polite for once?” I said, rolling my eyes. “Well, I just wanted to infor
KENNA"Kenna, do you have any idea what time it is?" Greg McAllister snapped as she entered the dressing room."I'm so sorry. It's just that my landlord was on my back and—" she stuttered"I don't want to hear any excuses, girly. You're always late. The only reason why I haven't fired you yet is because you have a pretty smile and customers like you. Other than that, you would've been gone a long time ago." My boss, Greg McAllister, lectured me with a frown on his chubby face.I sighed through my mouth. "I know, I know. I'm just sorry. I won't let it happen again." I apologized, and he waved his wrist in dismissal."Whatever. I don't care anyway. Go brush your hair and freshen your makeup because two men booked our private lounge. They requested for our best and most discreet worker, which happens to you." Greg told me, and I parted my lips.Our private lounge was really exclusive and so for these men to book the entire place for themselves, meant they must've been incredibly rich. Un
KENNAI woke up alone the next morning to bright sunlight glaring at me and my body tangled between the sheets. Memories of what I did last night came crashing down on me like a heavy wave. I had sex with a stranger. And not only that, but he didn't use protection."What is wrong with me?" I asked myself in a murmur. I was incredibly careless last night. What if I got pregnant? No way, that couldn't happen. Not in a million years would it ever be possible for me to get pregnant from a one-night stand. I was just worried about nothing.I hoped… "Sean, are you still here?" I asked in a groggy voice as I forced myself out of the bed and walked around the room, searching for him.I couldn't find him anywhere. He left me here. I went back to the room to pick up my clothes, then I found a note by the bedstand.I had an amazing time last night. Thank you.Underneath the note was a wad of hundred-dollar bills that had me gaping at the sight."Does he think that I'm a hooker?" I asked mysel
KENNATwo months later… I was pregnant. It wasn't verified yet but I knew I was pregnant. Pungent smells made me feel like puking, the foods I used to adore disgusted me, I threw up for no reason, and I was always hungry."Kenna, are you sure about this? I mean you could just be going overboard here." Nikki said to me as she stockpiled our grocery cart with different kinds of pregnancy tests."I'm not going overboard. I know it. I feel pregnant. But even if I'm not, I just need to make sure of it." I said in a down tone, and she nodded her head.We got to my small apartment half an hour later, and I grabbed about six of the tests with me to the restroom and used all of them. I came out and set them on the table, waiting."How long is this going to take?" Nikki asked me in an impatient tone.I sighed, then glanced at my phone. "Two minutes, tops," I answered. Then as time went by, different thoughts started to cross my mind."Let's say that I am pregnant, how am I going to find the f
KENNAMy first course of action was to talk to Greg and ask him who Sean was. Unfortunately for me, he took a vacation for two weeks and instructed the other workers to tell Nikki and me not to contact him for anything other than a life and death-matter.Today was the day that he was going to return to work and I was fully prepared. I knocked on his office door and waited to hear a grunt in reply before I stepped in."What is it, girly? If it doesn't have to do with me making a ton of money, then leave the office." Greg said in a gruff manner before he turned to look at me.I rolled my eyes. "This is incredibly serious," I told him as I took a seat on the chair across from him. "What happened?" He raised a curious brow. "I'm pregnant." I blurted out. His lips parted and I saw how shock flashed on his features before he cackled."You got a boyfriend now or…?""You remember those two men who booked the entire private lounge months ago. The one I went home with. He's the only one I've
