DELIA

The driver drove into an estate - Caribidreams Estate. The buildings all looked the same and would be difficult to tell apart. I watched carefully as he took several turns. I could easily get lost inside. The land mass was huge and there were lots of streets.

"We're here." The mysterious guy announced and I alighted the car. I made sure to memorize the name of the street and the house number. He helped me with my luggage inside while I just trailed behind him. He seemed extremely cold and knowing my curiosity level, I didn't want to make things worse. When we got inside, he slammed my bag on the ground.

Rude!

He handed a card to me.

"You can use the card to unlock the door or you can set a password." He stated simply and disappeared through the door.

Wow!

Much colder than I thought. He didn't even bother to show me around. If he was this cold, I wonder what the boss would be like. Maybe ten times icier. I shrugged and proceeded to view the apartment. I first located the

  • A Little Like Fate    8~ Late on the first day

    DELIA After having a body soothing shower, I changed into my transparent nighty and plopped down on my bed. My body felt more relaxed after I got comfortable and covered my skin with the thick duvet. It felt as though I was lying down on top of the world. I texted my mom with some voice notes about how demanding and stressful my day was. But I didn't mention meeting my classmate and the kiss. That would have seemed weird. After sending the necessary, I checked my mail for anything new and finding out there was no current news, I set an alarm and plugged my phone. Then, I laid down and let nature do its job. I dreamt of a great day at work, even though that seemed almost impossible with the people I've met but I still hoped. **** I turned to my side, moaning satisfactorily. I opened my eyes but closed them almost immediately, all thanks to the blinding brightness of the sun. I stretched my body and sat up. I checked the time and looked away. It was then it dawned on me. "Seven O

  • A Little Like Fate    9~ My first ex-boyfriend is my manager

    LEVI TERRA LUXURY ESTATE, BARBADOS. I watched her walk seductively in her undies toward me, a coquettish smile on her face. Her thick-looking body made me hard and I began to imagine the bad things I would do to her. "Hey tiger," She sat on my lap and kissed me slowly and gently. "Missed me?" She trailed kisses down my neck and I let out an irritated groan. I looked at her with hooded eyes when she pulled away with a smirk. I felt like kissing all parts of her face and leaving her body scattered with love bites and swollen lips. "Get up," I commanded and she did exactly that, going straight to her knees. She unbuckled my belt and stretched forth her hand into my pants, her warm hand reaching out to my d**k. She knew exactly what to do and how to do it and that was why I always had her around me. She stroked it gently from the inside and I threw my head backward. This lady knew how to work wonders on my stiff body. I enjoyed every movement

  • A Little Like Fate    10~ Do you know you have a nice arse?

    DELIA I stared at Clarence in disbelief. Did he think I was some kind of hörny bîtch? The nerves. "Get out." I retorted and pointed to the door. He chuckled and moved away. "Come on, stop acting casual, and let's get down to business." He tried to touch me but I slapped his hand away. "What do you take me for, Clarence? Huh?" I fired. He only gawked at me with a smug on his face. I wish I could punch that dirty thing off him. He thought I was playing hard to get and was hoping I would give in. "Well, I'll take it that you're shy. It's been ten fucking years and I guess you'll need time." He walked closer to me and leaned to my ear. "I know you missed my dîck. The earlier you accept that, the earlier we fûck it out." He whispered before disappearing through the door. I rolled my eyes and sat back in my seat. I wasn't going to let any imposter ruin my day. As I was going through some shipment files, I heard my phon

  • A Little Like Fate    11~ Thrust you later

    DELIA The elevator dinged and the door was opened, revealing a tall slender figure of a lady. I heaved a sigh of relief; Clarence didn't have any chance of flirting with me anymore. When we got to the ground floor, we all exited the elevator and went out separate ways. "Hi again, ma'am." I heard from behind me and turned. It was the lady from earlier. What was her name again? Yeah, Lisa."Hello, dear. Nice to meet you again." I greeted her warmly and she smiled. "You have a beautiful smile." I complimented and she blushed. Probably no female had ever told her that. "You're too kind with your words, ma'am. Thank you." She bowed slightly. I looked around, making sure nobody was watching us. It felt weird being bowed to. I wasn't a queen or anything related to royalty. "Wanna have lunch together?" I offered and she nodded in affirmation. We strolled side by side to the cafeteria which was already filled up with staff. Wow... It looked like high school all over. As we walked down t

  • A Little Like Fate    12~ Designated driver

    LEVI "You understand, don't you?" I asked Javan as he stared blankly at me while I was explaining his schedule for the day. He was to take Delia to work, teach her to drive for some hours, and then drop her back at her apartment after closure. "Yes, sir." He replied tiredly. "What's with that look? You don't like being around girls or something? Or you just don't like her in particular?" "Not that I don't like her. I just prefer being around you. It's less talking and more driving. She looks like a talkative, honestly." He complained and I chuckled lightly. "It's just for a few days before I get her enrolled into a driving school." "Okay, boss." He sighed and departed. Such a kid in an adult man's body. Lately, we had been getting along. I mean, it was just yesterday we began talking normally, and now, we relate as though we've been talking for months. He was always grumpy when speaking but blunt too. I reached out for my second phone as it started ringing. It was the bastard t

    LEVI "Where's my mother?" I asked again. I hated repeating myself but because I had something that made me think reasonably, I did. "I don't know what you're talking about. I don't even know you." He confessed. I laughed in anger and grabbed his neck. I stood up, applying pressure to his neck. He gritted his teeth as he sneered at me. "Tell me where my mother is. This is me being reasonable. Make do of it because I'm about to do something drastic." I threatened. "I swear... I don't...know what you're talking...about..." He struggled to speak and I let him go. I wasn't about to get blood on my hands just yet. He grasped some air while I watched him struggle. I sat down back and grabbed his file. "It says you got married five years ago and you have three lovely kids, two boys and a girl and your wife is also pregnant with twins." I could see the horror on his face as I read out his family's history. That would get him talking. "Please, leave my family out of this. Believe me, I h

  • A Little Like Fate    14~ Another ex... And he's my boss

    DELIA As unreal as it all seemed to me, I was counting fourteen working days into my job. Months ago, I was thinking my life would never get better. I thought I would never leave the trenches but there I was, enjoying my life to the fullest. My job got easier by the day as I completed all carryover jobs. But the only problem I had was meeting my boss. He hadn't shown up since I started and it felt as though I was working for a ghost. Secretary Ellie kept giving me silly excuses whenever I asked about his arrival. It was Monday, a new week to another phase of my job. My alarm had gone off and I took my time to take care of my body. I put on my clothes, grabbed my bag, and headed out of the room. After having a small breakfast, I walked out of the house, and as usual, the driver was waiting. No one in the entire company knew his name. It seemed kinda unbelievable that no one knew the boss' driver's name. Like, what do they then address him with? "Good morning." I greeted him as I b

  • A Little Like Fate    15~ My real job

    LEVIShe stared at me blankly, waiting for me to explain what I meant but as usual, I wanted her to take a guess. When she didn't say anything, I threw my head backward still staring amusingly at her. Seeing her blank and clueless was everything. "Don't worry, I'll think of a befitting punishment." I paused. I picked up a contract paper and waved it so she could see it properly. It was the first contract I had sent to her. "I was impressed with the way you summarized and noted all errors within one hour. I must admit, you're good." I pushed the paper aside as her eyes followed my hands. "Hiring you wasn't so bad after all. But now, you have to begin your real job." She turned snappily at me, wondering what I meant."My real job?" She asked in bewilderment. "Of course, this isn't why I painstakingly employed you. It's more or less a diversion." I said matter-of-factly. We heard a knock on the door and I muttered a permitting reply. The door was opened and my hot secretary walked i

  • A Little Like Fate    Epilogue

    DELIA "Did he tell you anything? Is it a business meeting or what? I don't understand why I have to dress up this pretty to go meet some other person." I groaned. Levi and Javan were always up to something crazy and I was sometimes scared of them. "Stop speaking in my ear, sis. Just wait until we get to the meeting spot. You can ask the client yourself why we're going there." He said. I relaxed back in my seat because arguing with him was pointless. We got to a seven-star restaurant and boarded the elevator. To my surprise, we got to the last floor of the building. Javan told me to go on while he went down back. "Hopefully these guys aren't trying to sell me." I prayed as I clutched myself when a rush of chilly wind hit me. The place seemed empty until someone walked up to me to deliver a card. "Come forward," the card read. I smiled widely as I knew what was going on. He could have just said so in the first place. I walked forward and met a beautifully decorated table filled w

    DELIA "I can't, babe. I have to go home and change first. Andrew needs a bath too. He ruined his clothes today and he can't sleep in them." I queried. Finally, he agreed with me. "But make sure you come back, okay?" He said and kissed me. "I will." I pinched his cheek and walked out with Andrew. Nobody had heard from Fallon, not even Levi's mother whom she came with. Hope she didn't kill herself somewhere. Or maybe she had gone home. Javan was still trying to locate her and hadn't reported any news to us yet. As I got down from the cab, my phone rang and it was Levi. "I just left five minutes ago. Missed me much?" "When are you coming back? Now?" "Not at all, in an hour or two." I headed for the apartment, smiling. I looked back and the cabby had driven away. "Come on, babe, don't do this to me," He begged. I laughed and just as I passed through the yard gate, I heard an explosion. My first instinct was to shield my baby. *****LEVII heard an explosion and then a scream foll

    DELIA "Javan, you've gotten so lean. Is Levi stressing you out?" Mrs. Elrod exclaimed. She touched Javan all over to his dismay. Levi and I laughed at him while he frowned. "I'll make sure to spank his arse later, okay?" She smiled. "So, Delia," She faced me. I stopped smiling and put on a serious expression. "How did you meet my son?""I met him at College during our first year," I replied. "So, how came about Andrew? You two are not married and he never mentioned you to me." She expressed worriedly. "It's more or less a complicated issue. He will give you the details of everything you want to know. Right, dear?" I touched his shoulder and he nodded. He was still nervous but he should be the one to break everything to her since they were closer than any other person in the room. We were all having a good time when the door was opened harshly. We all turned to the rude intruder and found Fallon standing at the door. Her hair was quite messy and her eyes seemed red and heavy. W

  • A Little Like Fate    Chapter 72

    DELIA I had a splendid time at the hospital with Levi over the weekend. He mustered up the courage and asked me out for real this time. The way he did it was funny and I ended up laughing up my energy. Who knew that the almighty Levi could be so nervous around me? I felt sad that I was leaving but I had to go to work. If I had listened to him and stayed throughout the week, the workload would have been too much on him whenever he resumed. I woke up early that Monday morning and prepared food for my boyfriend. He didn't like the hospital meals and he certainly didn't want to eat outside. So, yeah, it came down to making food for him. I also made the one that could last for Andrew till evening and I went to the hospital. "Good morning," I greeted as I stepped in."Good morning babe," He reciprocated. His eyes were on the screen of his laptop, probably trying to do some work while in the hospital. "You shouldn't be doing this," I frowned and laid Andrew beside him. "I can't let you

    DELIA I finally knocked on the door and when I heard a reply, I opened the door and walked inside. Levi's head was buried inside a book. I felt like crying. A few weeks back, he was lying almost lifeless but there he was, stronger and healthier. All thanks to the almighty for sparing his life. "Hi," I said. He must have thought I was a nurse or a doctor and that's why he didn't bother to check. But after I made my entrance recognizable by speaking, he looked away from his book. A smile was plastered on my face as I moved toward him. "How are you feeling today?""Better than ever." He replied. "Uhm... Here. I got these for you. Hospital meals are terrible sometimes and so, I got you a meal." I stretched the hug package toward him and he accepted it. "Thanks. You saved me yesterday with the meal you sent through Javan. Thanks again." He said and I smiled. I was definitely planning on toasting Javan after now. I specifically told him not to mention my name and just say the food wa

  • A Little Like Fate    Chapter 70

    LEVI "Thank you all so much. I feel so loved." I touched my chest in gratitude. Seeing my employees visiting me when I'm not well was something to be grateful for. It proved that I was a good boss to them and what better than having a good employer-employee relationship at a place of work? "Thank you very much. I really appreciate the gifts." "Get well soon, sir. We miss you a lot." One of them said. I didn't spot two significant in the crowd; Evans and Delia. I knew Evans hated me and was probably sulking somewhere because I was still alive but what I didn't understand was why Delia wouldn't come to see me. To be honest, she was the first person I was expecting to see. Was it that she didn't care if I died or not? Soon after the celebration of my coming back to life, everyone except Javan left. I sighed, I was hurt by her absence. Why was she bent on killing me? Why did I even bother waking up? "Delia made this," Javan stretched a bag toward me. I stared at it for some seconds b

  • A Little Like Fate    Chapter 69

    DELIA Every day was busy for me, coupled with the fact that I had to take care of a baby. It wasn't easy at all. At work, I had to do the job of a CEO and also work my position. If not for Javan who was always there to look after Andrew, I would have broken down. The printing of the book was around the corner and Levi was still not up. He was the key part of everything and his condition always kept me up. I had developed insomnia and it was getting worse every day. I don't get sleep and even if I try to sleep, I don't do it enough. I don't sleep more than two hours a day. I was drowning in the pressure. It's in over my head. I don't know why I thought I could do this. But still, I couldn't find myself stopping. I was doing it because of Levi. I didn't want him to think of anything work when he wakes up. All he needed to do was rest, rest, and rest. No stress is allowed in his zone. When Javan walked into the office, I looked at him with hopeful eyes but he gently shook his head.

  • A Little Like Fate    Chapter 68

    DELIA "How is he?" I asked, sniffing at the end of my question. Andrew was playing with my dress, chewing the buttons on it but I didn't bother. Javan looked at me and sighed. "Be honest with me, Javan. Don't think about lying because I will still find out." "The doctor said he might not make it out alive." He said with a deadpan expression. "There were lots of alcohol in his system. He is almost as good as dead." I sighed heavily as fresh tears rolled down my cheeks. "He can't do this to me. This is all my fault." I wept bitterly. "No, no, don't think like that. None of this is your fault. He was just reckless. We should just pray a miracle happens and he comes out alive." "I should have just called him after that night. He must have thought I was joking ot trying to play games with him. And you tell me not to blame myself?" I grabbed a tissue and blew into it. "It's not your fault. It's his fault for driving when drunk." He scoffed. "Don't worry about it." "What? I have al

  • A Little Like Fate    Chapter 67

    LEVI I didn't know how many days but I hadn't gone to work since the club meeting. I was somehow devastated because I knew I would never come back to see Delia, despite the promise. But there was another thought in my head. What if she was just doing this to pay me back for what happened? What if she knew I really loved her and she wanted me to feel every atom of guilt and probably die of it? What if all those actions were fake and she just wanted to see me suffer? The hot, steamy night was all just a ploy then. But then again, I couldn't just conclude without confronting her. She hadn't called since that day and my assumptions were beginning to seem true. My heart ached a lot and my eyes watered. Why was she doing this? I looked to my side and picked up the half bottle of vodka. I had earlier finished six bottles and it wasn't afternoon yet. I had finished more than a crate in less than a week. I was gradually turning into a shadow of myself and there was no one to pull me out.
