"Do not be bothered about what you have done, just come down let's have a nice time at the beach?" he said opening the door."Can you give me a minute?" Aletta asked. her voice was low in embarrassment. she did not want to face him now. She wished the ground would open up and swallow her whole at that very moment. "Sure" he said and she pulled the door with all the strength she could muster and closed up the door. she locked it up from inside and sat inside. She felt a scream brewing on the insides of her stomach. Why was she so judgemental of him ever since she heard from Anette?she sat there for a few more seconds before he tapped on the window again. She knew that there was no escaping for her. She had already made it here so there was no way to go back. she used her hand to rub her hair back. She must be looking so crazy in his eyes at that moment. She opened the door and pushed it open.she gave him a fake smile and they both could tell. Joshua who wanted to just have a nice ti
"Is it going to be a contract?" she asked. she was not sure the answer she wanted to hear but she hoped for his sake that it was the right one."If that's what you want then why not?" he answered in the form of a question. She blinked multiple times. should she have to tell him that she wanted a real relationship or should she ignore it and have a contractual one? if it does not seem to work out for them breaking up a contract would be much easier than resolving real feelings. She had been there before and she knew how ugly things could get."Let's make a contract then" she responded after weighing the pros and cons she would have to bear if she went into any of the relationships. Alethea had told her to live a little and she knew that there was no harm for her to do so.After all the man who had brutally cheated on her and broken up with her was now living his best life yet. He was at fault but why was she the one to live with a heavy load of guilt destroying and crushing through he
Alethea was pacing the front of the door in anticipation of the good news her sister was going to tell her. She wanted to know that Aletta had bagged the billionaire and she was sure she would be able to snatch the heart of the billionaire.If they began to date she was sure that in no time the billionaire would be head over heels for her. Aletta was a very loveable person and she knew about her sister's secret crush on him. he was the one who helped her through the slump she found herself in after her terrible and brutal breakup.The key to the door clicked open and the door pushed open. Alethea jumped for happiness towards the door. her eyes sparkled with excitement."You are home" she breathed out as she began to take steps back as Aletta began to walk in."Yes I am" she responded with a smile."So what's the update?" she asked as she turned around to walk side by side with her."What update?" Aletta asked while trying to feign ignorance."About your suitor" Alethea asked in a sugg
"I did go to work," Aletta said in haste. she wondered how she knew that she did not go to work today."Okay, so you both proclaimed your undying love for each other and started dating at work?" Alethea asked with her hands across her shoulders."You should open up a witch little corner right outside, with your wit and ability to decode situations you would be popular in no time" "Is that a compliment?" Alethea asked with a smirk"Of course not, I also fear you might end up behind bars for telling lies and providing illegal solutions" she added causing her smirk to fall off her face."You just had to kill it didn't you?" she said and then clapped her hands together. " You have a knack for distracting others don't you?" "Whatever" Aletta murmured as she stretched her feet into the soft red grass-like carpet spread across the floor."So where did you proclaim your undying love?" "First off, none of us proclaimed any love for each other" Aletta answered. She did not want Alethea going
"What's that smile on your face?" "These days anytime I turn around all I see is your face" Joshua said pushing the head of Jeanne as she was so close to him."But what about the smile on your face" "You've been oddly close to me these days, what is the reason for that?" "Nothing, can't a sister love up to her brother?" she asked with folded arms against her chest."We both know that's a lie and you don't like telling lies or do you?" He asked also his hands."What's the reason you are smiling?" "None of your business" "Okay what about what I asked you yesterday?" "I will talk to him tomorrow" he said as he pushed the door to his room."Okay, so why the smile on your face?" she asked following him into the room."If you must know I got a girlfriend" "So Anette was correct earlier this morning" she said with a frown on her face."Don't tell me you are still pissed with her?" Joshua said turning to face her."Would you have been able to forgive her if it were you?" she asked sitt
Joshua laid on the bed and joy filled his heart. He did not know his feelings and he could not yet figure out what they were but he knew that the thought of being with her was something he did not want to miss out on. he kept tossing and turning in bed but was unable to get down to sleep.His phone vibrated with a text and it was from Anette she wanted to know how his day went and if he was able to get the girl to go out with him. he shared the experience with her leaving out all the key details.She asked him if he had sent a good night message to her and he scratched his head thinking of what to send when she had instructed him to do so. He was one who was not used to showing all his emotions to the world so how was he going to thrive in that situation?He sent a quick small message with a sleepy head emoji. he waited for a reply and never got one. after about an hour of staring into his phone without seeing a message back from her, he summoned the courage to put a call through. Aft
"Good morning Mr. Delgado," Aletta said as she walked into his office. He had told her that he would go to work by himself and she did not need to come to pick him up.She had taken time for herself and had a hearty breakfast while trying her best to write down the terms she wanted to be included in the contract."Good morning" he replied with a smile. That smile did everything to her insides and she was not sure if she liked it or not. She barely saw him smile and even when he did it usually had to be professional."Your schedule for the day" she started walking towards his table where he sat. For the past few days they had not been doing things concerning their work but instead going around in circles of this relationship talk."Before that" he said raising his hand to stop her from going on."Yes sir" she paused looking up from the iPad. His eyes twinkled as if extra light had been added to them."What about the terms?" he asked leaning into the desk. "Your terms" he added when she
"We are at work" she said in a hushed whisper. "What else do you want me to call you?" "Who cares I am the boss and you can call me Baby?" he asked with a smile."Baby?" "Yes?" "Never, I will address you as Mr. Delgado while at work and if we are on dates I will try my best to address you by your first name" "Well, I don't like that and it's one of my terms," he said folding his hands and resting the back of his foot to the desk."What do you mean by that?" "That you call me by a nickname you choose and you must call me that at all times" he said."Even in front of the board of directors and your family?" she asked with widened eyes."Yes of course" "Of course not" "Why?" "Are you crazy?" the question flew out of her mouth before she could think and her hands flew to her hand before she could get the whole question out."No I am not" he was thrown aback by her asking that kind of question." Why would you ask that? " he asked like a curious child who was interested in knowing ev
