Joshua stood up at the speed of light as soon as he heard Jeanne ask that question. It seemed as if he had been anticipating the question all night.

"Woah slow down Mister, I thought you enjoyed these kinds of events more than I do?" she asked standing to her feet as well.

"No one enjoys the events except those who like to brag about their achievements," he said as they began to walk out hand in hand.

"And you don't like to brag about your achievement?" Jeanne asked throwing her head back a little. she found it hard to believe that her precious brother was not interested in bragging about what he achieved the whole year.

"I don't need to hoot my own horn, others can do that for me. That's what they are there for" he said and Jeanne could feel the confidence oozing out of his body.

"Oh my God, I wonder why girls still Fangirl over you when you are this obnoxious and self-absorbed," she said and saw a smirk appear on his face.

    "Jack take her home, I will take a cab I have to get somewhere," Joshua said as Jack opened up the door for them to get in."I will take you there" Jack said almost immediately as if it was out of impulse. "No need" Joshua said waving his hands in the air to show that he was highly not interested in them knowing where he was going. "Get in" he said nudging his sister into the car."Why can't we drop you off?" she asked turning to face him. "Are you going to see your girlfriend?" she asked and it made Jack gasp. "That is none of your business" he said turning her to the car and pushing her head down forcing her to enter the car."What should I tell Mom when she asks me about you?" Jeanne asked as he closed the door behind her. She wound down the glass of the car for it was tinted and no one could see through."What should I tell her?" she asked again and Joshua bent to her level and pretended like he was deep in thought. "Well?" she asked snapping her finger in his face."Cook whate

    "Oh my God," Alethea said again with a hiccup following the exclamation."Hello I am Joshua and I am here looking for Ms. Aletta. Is this where she lives?" he asked her.She suddenly snapped as if she was under a spell and had just been released. "I know you, everyone in the city knows you" she whispered but he could make out what she said."I am looking for Ms. Aletta?" he said again trying to make sure she heard him."So Aletta was not lying about you?" she blurted out without thinking."Is she home?" he asked again."Oh my goodness, pardon my manners. I should let you in" she said pulling the door wide and stepping aside.Joshua took a minute to think deeply. Should he really be going in here? He did not know how Aletta might react to seeing him here but he was worried about her and that should justify his reason for coming here.He stepped in and walked a bit inside to reveal the apartment. Of course, compared to his house this was a minute fraction but he loved how cosy it felt f

    "Well hello to you too," Joshua said with a smile."What are you doing here?" she said bringing down her voice like she did not want anyone to hear her."To see you" "Why? you could have called me" "Well you were not returning my text so I had to check if you were okay" "Errm, so as not to interrupt the love in the air" Alethea cut through their conversation with a sly expression on her face. "I will go to my room now" She began to walk towards her room and then turned back to face Joshua. "It was really lovely meeting you" "I hope we can meet more in the future and more freely," Joshua said.The statement made Alethea's eyes glisten with glee and she smiled and replied "I hope so too. Have a loving time" she said with a wink and then entered her room."I was so busy" she said realising that she had indeed not sent her phone all evening."With what?" he asked peering behind her into his open room."Just some personal work" she said pulling the knob of her door to shut it to stop

    Anette entered the house and threw her bag to the floor. She screamed out loud and it made her mom rush from the kitchen where she was to the living room."What is it pumpkin pie?" she asked rushing to her daughter. She picked up the bag from the ground and dusted it with her hands. "Why are you manhandling your designers?" she followed up dropping the bag to the chair."Do you care about the bag that much?" Anette asked feeling rage coming over her."No, what are you talking about? I know how much you love that bag and how sad you would be if you spoiled it now" Leslie explained. "What got you in such a foul mood?" "Joshua" "Joshua? Did you two fight?" Leslie asked. "Oh, I am sure you would make up in no time. You two were always joined by the hip since birth" she added and it made Anette even more mad than she should be."He humiliated me in front of the whole party," Anette said."What do you mean by that? Joshua had always been so sweet to you, I doubt he would do such a thing t

    Alethea comes out of her room and stops in her tracks at the sight of the scene in front of her. She could not help but gulp and hiccup at once following her eyes widening in shock."He spent the night here?" she murmured to herself before she went closer to the couch. She shook Aletta gently who was resting so peacefully in the arms of Joshua.If they knew that they wanted to do something like this why couldn't they do this in her room? "Aletta" she whispered trying her best not to wake Joshua up.Aletta stirred in her sleep and turned to face Alethea. All she could see were the legs of her sister."What is happening? Where am I?" Aletta muttered with sleep in her voice. "You are in the living room sleeping so peacefully in the arms of your boyfriend" Alethea bent to her ear level and whispered gently into them. She did not want to wake him up yet because she was interested in her sister's reaction first."What?" Aletta screamed out loud when her brain finally put together the whole

    "I will get started with breakfast" Alethea said walking out. As much as she wanted to stare at him all day she knew that she had to excuse them at that moment."How did you end up sleeping here? You said you were going to go after the tea" Aletta asked sitting beside him."I was going to go but you looked so beautiful as you slept I had no choice but to watch you" "Did I snore or grind my teeth?" she asked in a gasp her hand going over her mouth.Joshua shrugged with a smirk across his face. "I did didn't I?" she asked with an expression of terror."Wouldn't they be trying to reach you?" "Who?" Joshua asked."Did you forget about your family?" Aletta said and something began to vibrate. Joshua took up his phone and waved it in his face. Mom was written across the screen."I guess you are right" he muttered before picking up the phone and standing up to walk a distance away from her."Hello Mom" "I thought you were intentionally ignoring everyone at home.

    "Ms Alethea I must say you are a very good cook" Joshua commented as he took the last bite out of his toast and eggs. He took the cup of coffee to his mouth and downed the whole cup in a go."As good as your mom?" Alethea asked." Alethea" Aletta said in a scolding voice before she turned to Joshua. "Sorry about that she likes to joke about everything" "Of course, I was just joking," Alethea said with an eye roll."Well I guess you might be able to give her a run for her money" Joshua said and it brought a smile to Alethea's face."I must say I like you more than Aletta" she said and Joshua felt delighted. With the two sisters, he seemed relaxed and comfortable it was so strange for him."I do appreciate that Ms. Alethea" "Wait why do you call me miss?" Alethea asked her eyebrow going up to her hairline."Aren't you a miss?" he asked and she opened her mouth and closed it multiple times. She did not know how well to tackle that."You also call Aletta miss don't you?" she finally sai

    Aletta had suddenly become the third wheel and Alethea and Joshua were now busy sharing interest and discussion. Aletta had washed down the whole dishes and pots used by her sister in making the breakfast while both of them moved to the living room to continue with their supposed important discussion. Aletta had also cleaned up the kitchen. Doing the house chores made her feel a bit happy because it had been a while since she did tasks like that."Aren't you going to go home?" Aletta asked pulling out the throw pillow away from his buttock making him shake a little and throw her an uncomfortable look."Can't you see that I am discussing with him?" Alethea asked crossing her hand across her chest annoyed that her conversation was being interrupted."I can see that but I am sure he might have a lot of personal things to do today and he needs to go home. He hasn't been there since last night" he said pushing him to his feet from the couch."Why are you so eager to see me go?" he asked s

"Joshua you know I do not like being late for any of these events" Aletta screamed back at him. Altetta paced back and forth at the bottom of the stairs. "You know you should not be screaming while you are this pregnant"Joshua said as he came down the stairs with his daughter in his hands. "If you had come down earlier then I would have had no reason to scream that much" she retorted and he smiled. "It was my little pumpkin here who kept me waiting" Joshua replied as he got to stand b

    "I am so happy for you, this is finally happening," Aletta said holding the arms of Jeanne excited."I am excited but also nervous very nervous does anyone have calming pills?" Jeanne said slipping her hands off Aletta's hand and feeling the sweat on her palm."Calm down, it's just you and Thiago, everyone else is just like a rock. I promise you once you get on that altar every of that nervousness would be gone" Aletta continued. "Thank you," Jeanne said sarcastically."Are you nervous because its mu brother? I can help you run away from this right now" Nichole suggested and Alethea rolled her eyes. "Are all sisters this way? This was the same advice you gave Aletta the other day" Alethea said and Jeanne shook her head. "How can I leave, I have been dreaming of this day" Jeanne replied. "Then calm down even though I don't know why you would dream of marrying my brother but we all choose our battles I guess" Nichole shrugged as she sat down."Nichole" Aletta chastised because she k

    "You have to get to work" Aletta said rubbing the hand of Joshua gently. They had arrived back from their honeymoon over the weekend and this Monday morning was the first time Joshua was going back to work after the wedding."Can't I just lay down here with you all day?" he said taking out her hand and pulling her down to his level."You kept saying that and prolonged the honeymoon by two weeks,""Call me a criminal for wanting to spend time with my wife, I am getting the feeling that you do not want to spend any time with me" Joshua said opening one eye and giving her a judging look. "Joshua, you know that is not true, so get up now""You are no longer my assistant, you are supposed to be begging me to stay a bit more with you""What makes you think I don't want to do that?" Aletta asked taking his dishevelled morning hair back from his face."Because you keep urging me to get back to work so quickly, it's like you can't wait to get rid of me" Joshua took his head back to the pillow

    "Mom don't cry again, you might get a serious headache at this rate," Aletta said rubbing the back of her mother while in a hug. The entire wedding was over already and the whole family was seeing the couple off as they were going directly to the airport for their honeymoon. "Come on, at this rate they might miss their flight" Leon said trying to pull Eunice off her daughter. She had been bawling the entire ceremony, if someone saw her they would think it was a sad occasion. "My daughter," Eunice said as she finally pulled away and took a step back. "I am so happy and so proud of you because you managed or find love for yourself even after everything" Eunice sniffled and smiled. "Thank you, Mom," Aletta said with a smile. "You better get going now" Jessica said stepping forward."We are on our way now" Joshua said pulling open the door and gesturing for Aletta to get in."Call us when you get there" Jessica called after the shut door."Do not call us" Xavier said as if he was giv

    "I was always unsure about how I felt about you, You were always around me, taking care of me and I felt anxious whenever you were out of sight. A little secret that was the reason I always made you work overtime even when it was not necessary" Joshua said and there was a burst of small laughter across the room.They were both standing in from of the priest and altar but they had decided to take their custom written vows there. Joshua cleared his throat and looked up from his paper to stare at Aletta whose eyes never left his face. He flashed a small warm mile to her and she returned it."I never realized my feelings for you until you made that drunken confession that night that caused us to go into a relationship. I had always thought about marriage but for me, it was the only way for me to make children that would take over the company one day, being with you makes me so excited to think of waking up every morning with you by my side, I think of planting kisses on your lips and spend

    "Are you feeling nervous?" Alethea asked Aletta who was sitting in the waiting room with her shaky hands. "Yes I am, who wouldn't be?" Aletta asked as she closed her eyes to steady her breath. "I mean you are very right, who would like to marry my annoying brother, as much as I would like to call you my sister in law I can help you escape if you wish to" Jeanne chimed in. "Thank you so much for the suggestion, I am nervous about this and not rethinking my decision. I can't wait to be married to him" Aletta said as her eyes shot open. "Ew" Jeanne said as she gaged. " What do you see in him?" she added as she picked at her nails. "Everything I want to see" Aletta added. "Jeanne stop trying to put ideas in her head" Jessica cautioned coming towards them. "What did I do?" Jeanne whined."I heard what you said" Jessica replied giving Jeanne a warning look. Jesica knew that her daughter was playing around but she did not want Aletta taking any of the words to heart. "I know I have s

    "Mom's boyfriend would be here soon," Alethea said as she dropped the dish in her hand to the table. "I can not believe that I am being made to meet my mom's boyfriend at her age" "What I can not believe is that she can't order out but is making us to make food for him"Alethea whined as she moved back to the kitchen."What is even more crazy is that she is in a relationship again" Aletta exclaimed as she moved behind Alethea. "Don't get me wrong I guess I am glad she is finding love again" "Same here, if she is happy then there is no issue. Love is in the air" Aleteha added coming back to the table "So why don't you have anyone to share the love with?" Aletta asked. They were making the last trip from the kitchen to the table. "Says you? Who told you that I do not have someone to share this love with?" Alethea said dragging out her sentence and a weird smile climbing her face."Alethea you are hiding something from me" Aletta said going to clutch her sister's hand. "Spill now" sh

    Aletta and Joshua tried to reach Anette and Richard but it was as if they had fallen off the radar. "At least we tried" Aletta said as she set down the phone to the table. "Happy now?" Joshua asked and she nodded. "I guess I have to get going now" she said taking up her phone from the table."Where to? You just got here" Joshua was sad because they had finalized her resignation and she had not been around him like he wanted her to be. He was happy regardless that she was doing what she loved. "I have to go finalize things with HR on hiring your new assistant and then I have to go shopping with your mom and sister" Aletta explained. "Can we at least have dinner together?" Joshua asked and started expressing shock when he saw the expression on her face. "We can not? I barely see you anymore these days" he whined like a child who was cheated of having any ice cream. "I am having dinner with my family, mom is introducing her boyfriend to us today and honestly, I love spending time wi

    "Did you hear about Anette?" Aletta asked as she pushed the jar of pickles into the hands of Joshua. They had picked a date for the wedding and it was in three weeks. They were having one of the date nights where they stayed back home and cooked for each other. "What happened to her?" Joshua asked. Anette shook her head in bewilderment, how could this man be so oblivious to everything happening around him?"Have you seen her in a while?" Aletta asked. She wanted to know how much he did not know. "Well, since that day she came to our house, I did not think much of it when I did not see her again," Joshua said truthfully before taking off the lid of the jar. "But you know she called off her wedding and left the country so abruptly with Richard?" Aletta asked hoping that he at least knew about that fact. Yes, Anette did hurt them all but it would be too mean to not care about her when she had sincerely apologized."Maybe they did not want the wedding again?" Joshua asked shrugging. Al
