The New Girl3RD POV:“Welcome, Ma'am! I hope you have a great stay here.” The attendant spoke enthusiastically and she forced a smile as a form of response then wore her glasses which were on the top of her head.The attendant, security squad and people who were waiting around the airport turned to look as she strolled away as her look had heads turning and thirsty men's mouths watering. She was dressed in a short black leather gown and high top black boots to match. She was beautiful as her facial features seemed perfect in the eyes of the female attendant, her perfectly pointed nose, brown eyes, pink small lips and long black and blonde hair. Her aura screamed confidence and the heel of her boots clicking on the floor echoed to her ears as she walked by sparing no one a glance.She walked past a group of people who were waiting for the family members to arrive holding up sign boards and many assumed she was a celebrity but by how she continued on her journey without getting called b
3RD POV:A Visit To The Prison:“Where did you go? Did you travel for business? I can come wherever you are. You know I'd do anything for you.” She rolled her eyes in a full circle.“I don't know that. Bye!” She hung up and locked her phone exhaling sharply.She busied herself mentally preparing herself for her******************AN HOUR LATER:She was seated in the visiting area of the Prison center and she tapped her manicured nails repeatedly on the table and bounced her leg repeatedly. She glanced at the watch on her wrist and exhaled with annoyance realizing that she had been seated there for over ten minutes just waiting. She was glad that it wasn't over the telephone conversation she would be having with the person she wants to see, but they sitting across from each other.She looked around the visiting area and observed the people sitting down there talking to their families, one was seeing the family and another was with kids. Another looked like she was getting a scolding fr
I Swear, Let Me Love You Again Written by Okeke-Eze Ifeoma Isabella (Omaisabella) "How are you today Mrs Lydia?" Nurse Nia, who had been in charge of the blood transfusion since we began, asked with a smile as wore her gloves. "I'm okay." I replied tiredly and shook a bit as she inserted the needle after looking for an easy access vein. "You seem tired." She analyzed me but I just shrugged it off. I was tired physically, mentally, emotionally but everything was somehow going to get better. I really hoped so. As we were about to start talking, Doctor Fian and my husband entered the room. I grinned just looking at him in his blue suit and trousers. He was just so handsome and many would describe him as having the attributes of a Greek god. Every time I saw him, I realized why I loved him. "Lydia, how are you doing? Have you been taking all your vitamins and iron supplements?" Doctor Fian asked and I nodded in response feeling blood leave my body. "How are you Nathan?" I asked him
"Look, they are all minor cuts." I moved towards her, showing him the cuts. "Nothing too serious and you made me give my blood away for just this?"Nathan knitted his eyebrow staring at my proof and seemed genuinely taken aback while his mother remained surprisingly silent."What is she talking about Aubrey?" Nathan asked and I was a bit elated he was finally listening to me."I..I don't kn..know what's she talking about..The cuts might be minor but the pain is severe. I haven't even had time to check them with my eyes, the doctors simply said they were deep and since I didn't want to irritate myself by staring at them." Aubrey stammered out crying in between. His mother instantly comforted her while Nathan's look changed from surprise to annoyance. Annoyance probably channeled towards me for speaking the truth."Like why would you even say that? I'm literally here on the hospital bed fighting for my life and yet…" She trailed off speaking to me, more tears fell from her eyes."Don't
Lydia’s povI took a look at the mansion one last time. I felt extremely pathetic that someone like me would let myself be played with like this.I should have sensed that. All these years, he never bothered to know me more and even the maids got more chances to see him than me. How could I be so naive to believe that such a cold man would ever treat me differently?No, he is not that cold. It’s just his tenderness was never for me... I was just a nobody…"Well, well, looks like you're finally leaving?" A voice filled with mockery came from my back and when I looked back I saw Dia, she is one of the maids. She glanced from my suitcase to my face. Lomi, another maid, stood next to her."Awww…I wanna say we are going to be so hurt and miss you but that will be a very nasty lie. If you go, who will do all our house chores?" Dia added."Is everything okay Mrs Lydia? Mrs. King asked us to pack your things." Lomi asked with sincere worry in her tone. I bit my lip to prevent myself from bre
NATHAN'S POV:Sitting in the large room with eyes focused on the financial report while the CFO presented. I could hear him speak but I wasn't listening. I flipped through the document and ensured the finances were in place. My phone vibrated from my pocket rather than holding up till the end of the meeting to respond or check it like I usually do. I unlocked my phone in haste expecting a message from a particular someone who I haven't heard from for a few days now.I snorted in annoyance when I saw a message from one of my business partners. I dropped my phone on the table and snapped my eyes shut. Opening my eyes, I met everyone staring at me and the room dead dropped silent. Rolling my eyes at them, I wordlessly motioned for him to proceed."Are you alright sir?" 20 minutes later, the meeting came to an end. I nodded 'yes' in response to my assistant's questionAs we walked through the door, I took in the impressive view. The office was spacious and airy, with tall windows that o
NATHAN'S POV:I was completely exhausted and drained and was about to head home after a long day. I had visited Aubrey and surprisingly the doctors had said she was slowly getting better and that added some light to my day. My happiness died down when I remembered it was all because of her that I lost Lydia and I still haven't heard a word from her."Hello?" I picked up my phone with an attitude while sitting in the back of Range Rover as the driver started the car."Watch your tone." She spoke sternly and I pursed my lips not really in the mood to hear her go off. My mum had been calling and texting all day and I hadn't replied because she always seemed to have the wrong word to say to set me off."Your sister is back! So let's have dinner tonight and I don't want to hear no buts." She hung up afterwards and I sighed deeply.My little sister, Rachel, had been out of the country for a while spending time with her boyfriend who I had not met. Rachel was literally my mum's twin, she loo
NATHAN'S POV.I stared at my phone in disbelief. She really just hung up on me?? I sat there about to open the letter that she had left for me. Though I was dreading it, but, I needed to. As I slowly opened the letter, my mum barged into my office and shut the door behind her hastily."They are here." She whispered and I looked confused. "Your sister's boyfriend's family." I was completely thrown off but that. I had no idea she was even in a relationship."Hurry out. They are the Wilist Family and they own the largest construction company in this country. Can you just imagine how wealthy we would be if the two families merged?" She was simply excited and the amount of desire for her to amass wealth was oftentimes worrisome. "I will right there." I spoke flatly and she sucked her teeth in irritation mumbling how I was always so nonchalant and boring until she exited my office. I hid the letter back into my cabinet and exhaled deeply strolling out the room. Three new faces were added
