A DIRTY AFFAIR Thoughts of revenge
Antonio woke hours later with a banging headache. He held his head in pain and groaned softly in pain."Are you okay?" Margaret asked and he looked towards her direction.She's sitted on a chair, opposite him, facing him and slowly sipping the wine she's holding in her hands."I have a serious headache," Antonio replied, still rubbing his forehead."You drank too much," Margaret said. "There's a drug and glass of water on the tray beside you on the table. It would help"Antonio looked towards the direction of the table beside the bed and found the drug and water. He sat up well, stretched out his hands and took it, then he drank it and returned the glass of water to the table.Margaret was right as the drug was very effective and soon, he's starting to get better."How do you feel now??" Margaret asked, as she stood up from the chair and came to sit beside him on the bed."I feel better now," he replied."Look, Margaret, I'm really sorry for barging into your house this morning then r
A DIRTY AFFAIR Got discharged from the hospital
GEMMA Luca bowed to Antonio and walked out of the room, leaving me and Antonio in the room.I suddenly felt alone when Luca left. I had almost stopped him from leaving."How are you feeling?" Antonio asked.I eyed him from head to toe like someone infected with leprosy, hissed and looked away.I've made up my mind to stop being so scared of him. He has done his worst already, what more can he do? Except to kill me.I don't mind dying than living in this miserable life but first, I must have my revenge before I die.He turned my cheek to face me."Don't touch me" I chided."Look, Gemma, I know you're mad at me but I'm sorry" he apologized.I scoffed."You're apologizing??" I asked with a tone of mockery."I'm not sorry that the baby is gone. I'm sorry for beating you up. You're too stubborn, you should have done things the easy way" he replied."Really? You're not sorry the baby is gone? Wow!" I said."I don't like kids," he replied briefly."And Isabella?" I asked."Let's not ta
A DIRTY AFFAIR Margaret is pregnant
***TWO WEEKS LATER*** Margaret has been feeling so weak and sick for the past weeks now. It's going to the third week and she's still feeling the same.The weakness and sickness started after a week she had unprotected sex with Antonio and she suspected she might be pregnant. She's also having symptoms of pregnancy.She prayed fervently that she's really pregnant for Antonio. It'll be a prayer answered for her.She picked up her phone one morning to call Vanessa, her best friend, who's in the United States of America."Nessa" she called happily when her best friend answered the call."Garet, it's been a while," Vanessa said happily when she heard her friend's voice."How have you been? How's the weather over there?" Margaret asked."I've been so fine. How have you been too?""I've been okay, I guess" "I missed you" Margaret said and pouted even though Vanessa couldn't see her."I missed you too, Garet. You've totally forgotten about me, your best friend. You're enjoying
A DIRTY AFFAIR Caught in his room
GEMMAI turned around and was about to leave the room when I heard the door opening and I saw Antonio walking into the room.Damnit! I'm in trouble!Antonio stopped in his tracks when he saw me. Surprise and shock was clearly written on his face. Then his facial expression turned into that of anger."What the hell are you doing in my room?" He growled."I came to take this" I replied, showing him the video game in my hands and was more surprised at my growing confidence.I just realized I was no longer scared of Antonio and it made me proud of myself. The old me would have been shaking like a leaf by now."I don't understand you," he replied, giving me a confused look.It wasn't what I said that he didn't understand, it was my confidence to talk that way that he didn't understand."Did you realize you came into my room without my permission and broke one of my rules?" He asked."Yes, I know, but I couldn't help it. Isabella came crying to me in my room that you seized her video game a
A DIRTY AFFAIR Margaret pays a visit
Margaret woke up feeling so ecstatic. She couldn't wait to begin with her plans. Her best friend, Vanessa had advised her to get closer to Antonio and more close to his daughter, Isabella because Isabella is the easiest way to win Antonio's heart. And she's going to do just that! She already bought a Barbie doll online, and was just waiting for it to get here.She quickly rushed to the bathroom to brush her teeth, take her bath and get dressed. She was done getting dressed and applying some make up to her face when she heard a knock on the door. It could only be Grace, her maid."Come in," Margaret said from within.She was right after all as Grace came in carrying a package in her hands. "Good afternoon ma'am. A delivery man asked me to give this to you" Grace informed her."Good, it came at the right time," Margaret replied."Leave it there" she said and pointed to the dressing table."Okay Ma'am" Grace replied and did as she was told. Then she bowed her head and left the room.M
A DIRTY AFFAIR Other plans
GEMMA From the look on Antonio's face, I could tell he wasn't pleased to see his visitor."Antonio" the strange woman called sweetly and walked to where he was now standing.She gave him a hug which Antonio was reluctant to respond to."You didn't tell me you're coming," he said to her after the hug."Just wanted to pay a surprise visit and talk things over with you physically" she replied.I saw Antonio bend towards her and whisper something in her ears.Then she nodded."But first, I'll have to relax before any discussion,"she said."Emilia, I'm starving" She called out. "What's for lunch??""Pasta,"Nanny Emilia replied."Oh wow…I love it," She replied."I'll serve you now" Nanny Emilia replied and went into the kitchen. I stood up and went into the kitchen to assist her."Who's that woman?" I asked Nanny Emilia in the kitchen."She's Margaret Steele. She's been friends with Antonio for a very long time now. They're really close, more like best friends and she also works for
A DIRTY AFFAIR Liking Gemma
Antonio sat back on his chair in the private room after Margaret left angrily. He kept on smoking and thinking.He's lost in his own thoughts and they're all about Gemma. He's starting to like her which looks funny to him.What attracted him more to her was the bond she shares with his daughter. Despite everything he has done to her, she still loved his daughter so much.Not every woman would have love for the daughter of a man who treated her so badly and even made her lose her own baby.Women don't like other people's kids but this particular woman loves his daughter like her own child.He's even more surprised that Isabella opened her heart towards Gemma. Just as Gemma loves Isabella, Isabella loves Gemma as well.Isabella's a very picky child and selects people to interact with, but the way she became so close to Gemma surprised him.Seeing them earlier watching cartoons together, with Isabella wrapped up in Gemma's house was an exciting stuff to see.And now, it's just
A DIRTY AFFAIR Marry me
GEMMA I was lost in my own thoughts in the sitting room, while what I heard kept replaying in my head as I stared blankly at the TV, oblivious of whatever was happening there. While eavesdropping earlier, I had heard Antonio say he had other plans for me. What other plans does the monster have for me? There must definitely be something going on between Margaret and Antonio from the conversation I overheard. I'm very sure that Margaret loves Antonio from the way she reacted to my presence in the house but I wasn't sure Antonio felt the same way for her. When I heard her walking to the door angrily in her high heels, I ran as fast as I could back to the sitting room. Isabella had asked where I was coming from and why I was running, but I just waved the question off and smiled sweetly at her, then cuddled her in my arms till her father came to separate us. Now, she's running back to the sitting room, all excited and happy. "Gemma" she called and flashed me a swe
