Three Years Later!Nadia was in the kitchen, trying to put breakfast together for her family when her phone buzzed on the kitchen counter.She closed the cabinet she opened earlier, then went ahead to pick up her phone.She smiled upon seeing the Caller ID, before answering the call."Good morning, Auntie.""Good morning, my love. How's my favorite niece doing?""Great and you?""I'm doing amazing, Auntie.""What about Lenora and your husband?""We are doing good. Thank you.""Been a while we saw and spoke. But I'll be seeing you today right?""Today? What's happening today?" She sounded confused."Nadia!!!" Rita groaned from the other end."You know how much I take you seriously, Aunt Rita. I wouldn't joke with you if I knew what you were talking about.""Your Father's Birthday.""What about it?""It was two days ago. I sent him a text wishing him. And Charles sent him a gift on our behalf.""There's going to be a small party at the mansion this evening. Just family dinner. Your fath

Charles parked the car, turned off the engine and his wife still refused to unbuckle her seat belt.He sighed, unbuckled his seat belt, then turned his attention to her."I changed my mind. Let's go home."Charles frowned. "That must be a joke."She sighed, turning her attention to him. "You don't understand me, babe.""Then make me understand. I've got the time to hear your explanation. We've come all the way here. Why turn back at this stage?" He said, taking a glance at their daughter who was in the back seat, focused on her tab, watching cartoons."I'm really not in the mood to make conversations. I can see familiar cars and I'm stressed out already. Remember what the doctor said?""I know and I remember all that the doctor said. You of all people know that I wouldn't put your life in danger. I only want what's best for you, which is for you to reconcile with your family."Nadia didn't say anything.They all miss you, babe. Your mom literally asks of you from me over the phone and

Having no idea where she was going, Rita followed her. She went straight to the guest room closest to the living room. Rita continued to follow her. She got in and met her elder sister standing, facing the wall and crying her eyes out. "What's wrong, Sis?" She said, totally confused as she approached Lilian. Lilian said nothing but continued to cry. "Please talk to me, Sis," Rita said with a shaky voice. "Please if this is about Nadia, then I'm sorry." "I'm sorry I invited her over. I just got tired of it all so I invited her. I thought it would be a good thing if you all reconciled." "No, that's not it." "Then what is it, Sis? You are scaring me." Rita said, genuinely getting scared. The last time she saw her elder sister this pained and all over the place in tears was when their parents passed away. If there was anyone Rita knew to be a strong woman then it was Lilian. Seeing her this way, she honestly had no idea what to do or where to start comforting her. "I'm a terribl

Just a while ago, the focus was on Her and her mother's reunion as well as her baby bump. But now, She had all eyes on her.As dry as her throat was, Nadia slightly turned and took a glance at her husband who shrugged with a facial expression telling her she had to go with the flow.She mentally facepalmed again, wondering why her aunt, Rita, had to be really sensitive with every word that came out of her mouth."Yeah, if I remember correctly, Charles has two sisters, the married one has two daughters. Or your sister recently gave birth to a boy?" Lilian directed at Charles with a small."No. Michelle said she's done with childbearing and our last born isn't ready to settle down."Rita didn't say anything but continued to stare at Nadia suspiciously."Mama, where's your phone? Show Grandma Jayden's picture. Jayden is so cute and I love him very much.""Lenora..." Charles tried to caution their daughter upon seeing how nervous his wife was."Jayden is a friend's daughter whom Lenora go

Not only was Nadia shocked by the way her younger brother spoke, but she was also shocked by the accusation. She instantly turned her attention to where Connor was, confronting his wife.Rita, Aaron, Lilian, and Charles, who came back from the kitchen without Lenora also had their attention on themThe confused look on Diane's face was instantly replaced with a small nervous smile that crept to the corners of her lips."What do you mean, honey? I don't understand what you're talking about.""Don't mess with me, I'm not in the mood for any of your tricks tonight!" He groaned at her, throwing her a very deadly glare."But I don't know what you're talking about. Yeah, I know Nancy. That psycho that wanted to force her way into your lif......"Nadia was about to defend Nancy but Connor beat her to it before she could move her lips to say anything."Shut the fuck up and answer the damn question. You had a hand in this. Didn't you?""Why are you accusing me of such rubbish? I don't know wha

"Enough, Connor!" His father cautioned. "We are all at fault here. What is needed now is the way forward." "I hope this isn't a setup. If this is some plan to get me to sign those divorce papers then you all are wasting your time because I'm not going to sign anything." "Divorce?" "What divorce papers?" Rita and Lilian said respectively while Nadia didn't look shocked at all. It was as though she saw that coming. As far as she knew, marriage was something that was supposed to bring happiness but in the case of these two confused people she was looking at, then it was the other way around. Noting that she was already on her feet for too long and her legs were aching, She quietly moved away and went to sit on the nearest couch. Sighting her daughter, Lilian protectively made her way to her side. "You okay dear?" She nodded with a small smile. "Been standing for long" she replied and her mother instantly understood what she meant. Diane rolled her eyes at the duo before turning h

Nadia's throat suddenly felt dry as she stared at her younger brother in his vulnerability."Say something. Please,"His words brought her out of her thoughts. He was not the only one staring at her like she had a solution to the situation on ground. Lilian, Rita, Aaron, and Charles were also staring expectantly at her."I..." She was saying, then swallowed painfully. "I don't know what to say."Say you've forgiven me and that you'll help me meet Nancy.""I don't think I can be of help to you.""Why?""The damage is beyond control,""How?""You hurt Nancy so bad and she wants nothing to do with you.""I expected to hear that because I know I've done so much to hurt her.""Plus you of all people know how stubborn she can be.""I made her a promise.""It doesn't matter, Nadia. You don't wish her bad. I'm not going to cause her any more pain. I'm only trying to make amends. I want to see her and talk to her.""Please." He said when Nadia said nothing.She sighed, "You look so much like J

As someone who detests attention, Nadia awfully found herself loving the fact that members of her family were really looking up to her for juicy details that only she, her husband, and her daughter knew about.The corner of her lips curved into a beautiful smile as her eyes darted at Connor who also stared at her expectantly."Why are you looking at me that way?" She directed at Connor."Won't you show me too?""No.""Why?""You didn't ask. Only mom asked.""She asked on behalf of us all."Nadia shook her head."She sees it and I don't? That's not fair.""Stop whining.""I will whine.""I don't want to scare you away,""Scare me away?""Yeah, I don't want you to change your mind about everything.""I would be so stupid to do that.""I had wanted you to see him in person but if you all insist." She shrugged.Charles reached for his wife's purse where she kept it and handed it to her.Nadia opened it and took out her phone. She unlocked the phone and went straight to her gallery. She ha

"Hi Dad," She forced a smile at him the moment she noticed his presence, as he took a seat beside her."What's wrong? You seem moody. Aren't you happy about today?""Of course, I am, definitely!" She sniffled."I just feel so emotional and I don't know why?" She mumbled, wiping tears away from the corner of her eyes."You wanna talk about it?" Her father pushed, knowing something must be on her mind."Jayden is really growing fast. Seems like yesterday when I just gave birth to him but now he's grown, eating himself, calling people by their names, he wants to do almost everything himself already." She sighed. "it's so hard to believe that we've come this far. I can't believe he clocks three today.""I know that feeling and I'm proud of you.""Not again, Dad. Stop flattering me." She mumbled."I'm not, my dear. I'm just being sincere. You deserve every praise coming to you. You've been through phases of life you never thought you could not withstand and now look at you, a mom to the co
