Romans de El Zico

CALEBI can’t tell how many hours I stayed in the bathtub but when I opened my eyes, the day was so bright and the ray of the sun found its way into my room.I managed to remove my wet clothes and have a proper bath. It was Saturday, so I planned to remain indoors all through.Next, I wore a casual outfit and picked up my phone. I made my way to my study room whose door was linked to my room.Scrolling through my phone, I saw that I had missed five calls from Silas.I smiled and called him back.“Where the hell have you been?” He asked the moment he picked up the call.“Sleeping,” I uttered.“Wow, you must have been dreaming about Sarah which is why you woke up this late.” Silas teased.“Come off it, I need to rest. It is weekend by the way.” I said as I switched on my laptop.“Yeah, its weekend but your secretary had sent several reminders of the scheduled meeting with our new partner and you didn’t reply.” He paused. “It starts in twenty minutes.”After the call, I checked my email

CALEB“She has moved on.” With a low voice, I said to Silas when we got into the car.“Give her time, it is a lot for her to chew at the moment.” He replied. Tapping my shoulder, he added, “If she has found true happiness in another man then you have to let her go.”He continued. “I will take you home because I don’t want you to hit the car against the trunk of a tree.” The concern in his voice didn’t go unnoticed.I wasn’t in my right senses to do anything at the moment. Silas understands me a lot.“Does that kid look like me?” I asked with a furrowed brow.“Which kid?” He fixed his gaze on the steering, feigning ignorance.“There is something I want to find out,” I said grudgingly.“How is the kid supposed to look like you, are you his father?” He said sarcastically.“Okay, do you think the man who came to meet her while she was with us is better than me?” I asked.“The right person to answer that is Sarah,” Silas muttered.“Hmm,” I expressed, not satisfied with his response.Soon,

SARAHST Atelier has gotten a lot of partnership deals and the latest designs were launched at values that I never had dreamt of.Everything went so well, interacting with dignitaries and some special guests made my day. I felt when I was married, I was living in the shadow of my dreams.Josh arrived a bit late because he went to welcome some guests for the event from the airport. The moment he briefed me about their arrival, I was excited to greet them.Having international brands at my event and having them partner with me made my joy immeasurable.Josh always went out of his comfort zone to help me out. All my achievements can’t be complete without mentioning himAfter the models had showcased the latest collection, there was a special seat allocated for them to sit at the event. However, I noticed that the moment Nelly got off the runway, he made his way out. I assumed he needed something and was out to look for his maid.Upon seeing his maid, I asked about Nelly but she claimed

CALEBI decided to go with Silas to freshen up at his house and purchase a new outfit that I will use tonight.All this while, my phone rang. It was a call from Laura. I wasn’t in the mood to talk, I needed time to fix my mind. I assured myself that I was going to talk with Sarah but I couldn’t tell how easy or how soon it would be.After some minutes of being reluctant, I answered Laura’s call because Silas asked me to. “Why did you ignore my call? Why aren’t you home yet? Do you need a lecture on how to be a caring and loving husband? You are becoming unbearable.” Her fury rang out from the other end.I sighed and raced my hand through my hair. If only this lady knew the mess my heart is battling with, then the least she would do is to give me peace.“I don’t have time for this. If you can’t bear with it, please you can leave.” I replied confidently.“What? Caleb, what has come over you? We need to sort this out in person. When will you return home, I am waiting.” With the shock ev

CALEB “Since we returned to California, your attitude towards me changed. Yesterday, I didn’t even understand why you looked moody when you returned from the meeting. You refused to have your meal.” Laura stood akimbo throwing words at me. “Do you even think it is easy to cook?” “It is just some personal stuff, you don’t have to be worried,” I replied indifferently. “Can we have some fun together when you return from work?” She asked seductively and I wondered if everything revolves around sex. “Sorry, that won’t be possible. I have a lot to attend to. When I return home, I know I will be exhausted.” I said with a tightened face. “But you always create time for me. Caleb, what has changed? Please talk to me.” She asked with a pitiful tone, trying to make me feel bad. She continued, “Caleb, don’t treat me this way. Don’t you care about my feelings? We are together yet I miss you like we are living in different worlds.” She paused and added, “Hope it is not what I am thinking?” “

Two years later SARAH “Is everything ready? Where is Nelly?” Aunt Olivia asked, wearing her earrings with a smile beaming on her face. I was so happy, I ensured everything was in place with the help of my employees. There was a lot to be grateful for, my career and my dear son, Nelly. “Everything is in place Aunt, and Nelly is fine,” I replied excitedly as I patted my cheeks. Aunt Olivia and I were discussing about ST Atelier event when my phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Josh and I answered quickly. “I’ve sent more invitations to some top-tier fashion brands. They will be present at your event tomorrow. I am sure all of them will be impressed and would want to partner with you. I am proud of you!” Josh's happy voice came from the other end of the call. “Oh mine, I don’t know how to appreciate you. You’ve proven to be a true friend all these years. Words are not enough to express my appreciation.” I uttered with all humility. “You’ve proven to be exceptional in your fie
