“Kendra were going to have snacks for dinner” I say, taking out the chocolate from the fridge“I don’t mind, today was so hectic, I don’t think I can handle cooking” Kendra yawns“Let’s just settle for some left overs” I say, bringing out some leftover rice and chicken sauce and put it into the microwave“That’s most definitely going to work” she says, and she falls on the couch“Damn this is so comfy Anastasia, you were so goddamn right” she adds“We did spend a lot on these things today and it was totally worth it, I don’t regret anything” I say, smiling at how relaxed she is on the couchAll I ever wanted was to make sure that Kendra is happy and comfortable, giving her the life that she never had.The microwave dings, and I know it’s ready.“We are going to eat this from the bowl sissy cause I don’t want to wash the dishes” I tell her“That’s fine by me” she says and I place the food on the kitchen table.“Even though it’s a left over, the aroma is still inviting” I say“Too bad t
“Hello” the familiar voice says and I can feel my breath seizing.I thought I healed from him… I thought he could no longer affect me“Please leave me alone” I say, but I don’t end the call, I wait because a part of me wants to hear what he has to say.What is he’s the one that trashed the house“Oh my baby girl, I’m going to be a grand dad. You’ve made me happy” he says and the line goes silent.It has been disconnectedWhat does he mean by that? I ask myself, my mind racing with thoughts.My wandering thoughts lead me to sleep.The following morning, I wake up, feeling uneasy. The call I received last night still lingers in my mind.I decide to get dressed for my shift and head downstairsKendra is making breakfast, toasted bread and bacon.“Morning sissy, I made you breakfast” she says and places a plate of food on the table“Thank you so much, I appreciate it alot” I say to her and go ahead to eat, my face showing clearly the unease of my mind.“Ana did you wake up on the wrong si
Mr Harry’s words stick like a gum to my head… the gravity of his words, coming to light, how could he have known that I was pregnant….I say, confused with my conflicting thoughts….“Yeah…” I trail off, giving him an answer.“You’re pregnant aren’t you?” He asks and I smile, not giving him an answer.I walk into the house and I know it’s a sign that I should tell Jim, I need to tell him sooner than later.“Hey baby girl” Kendra greets me, she’s laying on the comfortable couch, with popcorn in her hands.“Hey sister” I greet her and join her on the couch.I throw a popcorn into my mouth and munch on it loudly.“Alright girl, what’s the problem?” Kendra says, pausing the movie and looking at me.“Well….. Mr Harry knows I’m pregnant… I can’t seem to wrap my head around why and how” I share my concerns with Kendra, recounting my conversation with Mr Harry.“What do you expect sissy, I mean you talk about these things regularly” she tells me, and I lean into her.I understand her point and
“What’s wrong?” Kendra asks, sensing my unease.“It’s a message from Jim, said we need to talk when I’m off work” I say“Well nothing to worry about” she says, assuring me “you’ve always got me to stand beside you”“Well thank you, I think I should call Jim” I say, and excuse myself from the living room.While his line rings, my mind races with different thoughts as to why he needs to call me urgently and what he knows… what if he knows I’m pregnant?“Hey” I say, my voice coming out in a soft whisper, scared of what he’s going to say next“Hey princess, I didn’t expect you to be out of work by now, I thought you had a night shift” Jim says, his voice sounding soft and sweet through the phone.“Well baby, I closed earlier, there are more hands on deck so I guess I have less work” I say“Alright princess” he says“There’s something you wanted to tell me, what’s that?” I ask him“Well, I wanted to come pick you up then we could talk over car ride but I’m going to come over…. Is that okay
“You’re going on a business trip for a week” I say, realization is very clear in my voice.“What’s wrong?” He asks, looking at me in my eyes.“It’s just a week, been thinking you said I month” I say, laughing at my dumb realization but Jim doesn’t seem to be buying it.“I always knew I had an abnormal girlfriend” he says, and joins me to laugh, my laughter obviously being very much contagious.Mr Coleman interrupts our moment when he comes into the living room and places the goodies in the kitchen counter and he leaves.“That’s a lot baby” I say, looking into Jim’s inviting eyes“So what do you have in mind?” Jim asks, leaning close to me, his breath fanning my face.“What?” I ask, my voice stuck in my throat with the immediate rise of sexual tension in the air.“What do you have in mind for us to do princess?” He asks, his voice husky..“Not in the living room” I say, my smile rigid..“Your wish is my command baby” he says, and carries me by my leg, sweeping me off my feet, bridal st
Jim stands up from the bed and walks into the bathroom, and comes out with a warm towel.He places it on my thighs, helping me to clean up because I’m too weak to stand up.“I love what I do to you” Jim whispers to me and I smile weakly at him.“I love what I do to you too baby, how I make you moan in satisfaction, that feeling is top notch baby” I smile, satisfied with everything that happened between us.He finishes up from the bathroom and decides to join me in bedOur love blossoms in the glow of twilight, the world fading into the background as we cherish the closeness we've yearned for. Jim's laughter ripples through the air, a soothing melody that ignites the sparkle in his eyes."Anastasia," he begins, a playful grin tugging at his lips, "do you remember our first date?"A soft chuckle escapes me as I remember that special evening. "Of course, Jim. How could I forget? It was the night that changed everything."He holds me tighter, our connection deepening. "I remember every de
Jim’s POV.I arrive at the airport, and the hardest thing that I ever had to do was to say goodbye to Anastasia, she seats in the car and I could see the tears that are gathering in her eyes.I wonder why she’s crying so much, I’m going to be back soon.The ride to the country was a smooth one, considering the fact that I boarded a first class plane.Getting down from the airport, I get a call from Mr James.“Hello Mr Jim, I’ve sent your car to come pick you up and drop you at the location. The meeting starts in ten minutes” he tells me, not even giving me a chance to talk.I see the car that was assigned for my comfort and I get into the car.And this is the perks of being a multi billionaire that no one really talks about, the amount of meetings that we have to attend, just to keep our businesses high and surviving.Initially, Jonathan is meant to be going for these meetings, but instead, I’m the one that has to go for them.In the first meeting, my fellow executives and I discuss o
Anastasia’s POV“Baby have you gotten to the hotel?” I ask Jim, who has been on the call with me while he was in the car.“Yeah, and the room looks good at least” he says.“Okay, switch it over to a video call then, I want to see your face” I tell Jim and he does so…We talk about everything and anything, till we decide we’ve been on a call for too long and Jim needed to rest.“Baby take care, you have a long day ahead of you, so get some rest” I say, trying to convince Jim that he should quit being a baby and go to bed.“Okay I will, I love you and I miss your lips on mine” he says.“I sincerely love you too” I say and wave him goodbye before I disconnect the call.I place my phone on the table and immediately, I fall asleep.The morning sun, peeps into the room, causing me to wake up.I try to stand, but I’m too weak to. I seat up and my head begins to hurt severely. I feel unusually warm, my body radiating heat. I’m surprised, as I haven’t been sick in a long time. I glance at the
