Cold Showers Chapter Eleven
Getting drunk and occupying himself with work has been Sebastian's routine for the past weeks. Jayda's face hunted him every now and then. He gets angrier when he remembers his conversation with Lilian, his cousin. 'about her colleague dating the girl he had a one night stand with.' He was totally convinced Jayda was just like the other women. All the tears she shed were fake and most importantly, what they had meant absolutely nothing to her. He was hurt and dying of jealousy. The thought of another man having what he had with her was making him go crazy and because of his Ego, he couldn't reach out to her. Seb couldn't believe he had been celibate for over a month now. "Yes," He said as soon as he answered his intercom. "There's someone here to see you, sir." Maria, his receptionist said over the intercom. "But I'm not expecting anyone." "She said it's urgent Sir." "She?" Sebastian groaned, hoping it wasn't one of his ex flings. "Yes sir, her name is Jayda." Sebastian's eye
Cold Showers Chapter Twelve
Lilian could not pick Jayda up from work so she took a taxi home. Jayda showered, changed into her comfy nightwear, proceeded to the kitchen to look for something to eat. She didn't feel like eating what she had so she ended up ordering pizza.The delivery guy came ten minutes after she ordered. Jayda reached for a bottle of coke in the fridge and settled on the sofa to enjoy her pizza while going through the handbook Doctor Davis gave her earlier today.Soon enough Lilian walked in."Hey, best friend." She greeted as she placed her handbag on the table, then settled on the couch beside Jayda."Hi. Dinner is ready, I ordered pizza for you.""Thanks." Lilian smiled. Her smile grew wider when she saw the book Jayda was reading. An introduction to motherhood kind of book."So how was your visit to the Doctors?" She asked.Jayda finished chewing her bite of pizza before she answered. "It was fine. We talked, and she gave me some prescriptions and this book to read. My next appointment is i

The Next DaySebastian came back from a meeting at the conference room and met a white sealed envelope on his desk with the print 'Saunders and co' on it.He called his Secretary via the intercom and requested her presence. Jessica came in immediately."When did this get here?" He asked, gesturing to the envelope on his desk."Maria said it was delivered this morning by an intern from Saunders and Co.""Did the intern tell Maria the person that sent him or her to deliver this?" He asked curiously because he has never had anything to do with anybody from Saunders and Co."No sir,"Sebastian sighed, "Okay, you can go."Seb removed his suit jacket, rolled up both sides of his sleeves to his elbow, then settled down on the chair behind his desk.He reached for the envelope and opened it. He came across some papers which were directly addressed to him. Sebastian took pains to go through the papers. He was shocked after figuring out what they were all about.The papers required him to tender
Cold Showers Chapter Fourteen
After what seemed like forever, Sebastian calmed down a little. His eyes were puffy as a result of the tears shed. Vanessa wiped his tears with some tissue paper she got from her nightstand. Then she handed him a glass of water which he refused.Vanessa took her son's hands in hers. "You can tell me everything now." She persuaded."I messed up Mom, I fucked up really bad." He said. Vanessa nodded, encouraging him to continue."I met Jayda five weeks ago, we met in a bar and ended up having a one night stand. She was different. I felt with her things I never felt for anyone; not even Susan who I thought was going to be the mother of my children.""After that night I was cold to her, we had a fight the next morning. Up till today, a day has never passed that I haven't thought about her. Caleb advised me to go after her, apologize and make it up to her but I refused because I convinced myself that she was just like Susan.""Jayda came to see me at the office yesterday. She said she was pr
Cold Showers Chapter Fifteen
On his way back to his apartment which was about thirty minutes away from his parents' mansion, all Sebastian could think of was Jayda. He felt more guilty hearing that she wasn't feeling well and wished he had reacted like a mature man when she told him she was pregnant.He wished he could take back all that he said to her. He was willing to accept his mistake and would do anything in order to be in both Jayda's life and his baby's life.He concluded that Lilian was the key to Jayda's heart. She knew everything about him and Jayda and yet she never said anything, at least not directly. Seb heaved a sigh. He felt like a fool when he remembered his last conversation with Lilian. Obviously, there was nobody called Liam. She was only pulling his legs.Even though Lilian and Sebastian were not on good terms, he was willing to make peace with her and plead to her to help him win Jayda and his baby back. That was why he came up with a weird excuse and collected Lilian's number from Amelia, h
Cold Showers Chapter Sixteen
Lilian planned on not allowing Jayda go to work but Jayda proved her wrong with how energetic she turned out to be. She woke up early and offered to make breakfast for herself and Lilian.Lily made sure Jay ate everything that was on her plate and she made sure her best friend took her vitamins.They cleaned up, prepared for work and left Jayda's apartment in their cars.Jayda got to her office at exactly 8.30 am. She placed her handbag on the golden brown mahogany desk, then settled in her chair. She took out her diary and went through all of what she had to do for the day. She was about to do some paperwork when she was disturbed by someone knocking on the glass walled door."Come in," Jayda said absentmindedly without looking at the person who knocked."Someone delivered this for you ma'am " Anna smiled as she placed a big bouquet of red roses along with a box of chocolates on Jayda's table.Jayda looked at the items on her table, then she took a look at Anna, her Secretary."Are yo

After having a sumptuous dinner, Jayda and Lilian made their way to the Sofa in the living room where they talked about different things while enjoying their Ice Cream."You won't believe what happened today," Lilian said as she took another scoop of her Ice Cream."What happened?" Jayda asked curiously."Sebastian called me."Jayda sighed. "He also sent me a bouquet of roses and a box of chocolates. The roses came with a note. He said he's sorry and that I should give him a chance to be in my life and my baby's life.""Are you for real?" Lilian asked, totally surprised. Jayda nodded, enjoying the taste of her Ice Cream."So where are the apology gifts?" She asked because she could not recall seeing any roses in the house."I had Maria return them to him along with a letter reminding him that he was to return the documents I sent to him by noon. Also, the restraining order applied to the gifts so he shouldn't send any gifts to my house or office.Jayda noticed Lilian was looking weird
Cold Showers Chapter Eighteen
Sebastian plopped down on his bed defeatedly and tossed his phone to the other side. He wished getting Jayda back would be quite easy but who was he kidding? Not after all he had put her through.He was happy he gave her the opportunity to apologize before she ended the call. This was one of the moments that Sebastian wished he had some sort of superpowers. He would very much like to know how she was fairing and most importantly, what was going on in her head.Issac had gotten back to him yesterday night with her home address and phone number. But he was scared to call her last night. He finally found the courage to do so when he woke up this morning.He came to a conclusion that Jayda and his child were worth fighting for so he wasn't giving up anytime soon...............Jayda was all dressed up in her business suit and matching pair of heels, she already had her makeup done and her hair in a low ponytail. She reached for her handbag, then exited her room."I wish, I hope and I pray

Jayda smiled as soon as she saw Sebastian walk into the kitchen with Ariella in his arms."It smells divine in here," Seb said as he approached Jayda and kissed her lips which made Ariella giggle."Dada, Ariella wants a kiss." She pointed to her cheeks. Sebastian chuckled and then placed a kiss on her cheeks."How was work, babes?" He wrapped an arm around Jayda's waist and kissed her cheek."Fine. Yours?" She wiped her hands with a napkin, turning her attention to him afterwards."Fine too. I called you this evening but you didn't answer your call.""Sorry, my phone has been in my bag since I left the office.""It's fine, Lilian called to tell me they would be arriving early. They should be here anytime soon.""Thank God the food is ready. I only have to set the dining table.""You hungry, princess?" Jayda asked her daughter who was still in her husband's arms.Ariella shook her head."You have to eat something, my love." Sebastian persuaded."Cookies." She s

"Are you for real?" Jayda whispered after a while, looking from Lilian's face to her belly.Lilian nodded with the most beautiful smile ever.Jayda gently placed Ariella on the bed beside her, then embraced Lilian into a hug."This is the best news I've heard in a while. Thank you, God. Gosh, Lily, I'm so happy for you and Roman." Jayda sniffed."Thanks, babes! But please don't tear up, I don't want you to ruin your makeup." Lilian said but it was too late because Jay already had a tear rolling down her cheek.Jayda chuckled and pulled away from the hug. "Don't worry about my makeup, my makeup artist will retouch everything."Lilian took Ariella in her arms when she almost started whining."Ella, your godmother is going to give you a playmate. How cool is that?" Jayda cooed and tickled Ariella who giggled."Yes, my love. And hopefully, if it turns out to be a girl, you two will be best friends like your god mommy and me." Ariella gave a toothy grin smile."When did you find out? How fa

Jayda had breakfast. Aaron also ate with her. Soon after, they were joined by Jayda's parents. Aaron was happy to see his other Grandma and Grandpa.While the boys ( Sebastian, Albert, David and Aaron) settled on the sofa to drool over Ariella, Jayda and Sebastian's Mom sat with Jayda and engaged in conversations. Grace was seated on the right-hand side of Jayda's bed while Vanessa occupied the left-hand side."How does it feel to be a mom?" Grace asked her daughter."Weird, but amazing! I mean, I've been a mom since the first day I met Aaron but Ariella's birth has definitely changed me for the better.""But Mom, you didn't tell me how painful labour can be." Jayda accused Grace.Vanessa chuckled, "Dear, I don't think there's any word to use to describe the whole labour process unless one experiences it. But I'm sure all the pain was worth it as soon as Ariella was placed in your arms." She said.Jayda nodded. "It was definitely worth it."The trio continued with their conversation, w
Cold Showers Chapter Fourty Eight
"They just had their second child and they've started trying for baby number three." A very familiar voice came through.Jay and Seb shyly pulled away from the kiss.Lilian and Roman walked in with pink decorations and gifts. Lily placed all the items on a free couch then made her way to Jayda to hug the hell out of her."Congratulations babes!""Thank you,""I had wanted to come over as soon as I got Seb's text at midnight. But again, I remembered we wouldn't be allowed to see you or my goddaughter until a few hours later. I only went to bed when seb texted that you and Ariella were fine.""Thanks, Lilian, I appreciate everything you do for me," Jayda said sincerely."What are sisters for?" Lilian smiled and then pulled Jayda into another hug."Hey, she's meant to meet me first. I'm her mommy's best friend which means I'm her best friend too. She's also my goddaughter which gives me priority." Lilian said before Roman could pick up Ariella from her bassinet.Everyone in the room chuck
Cold Showers Chapter Forty Seven
Sebastian felt very useless standing by Jayda, doing nothing than holding her hand and encouraging her to push by whispering soothing and encouraging words in her ear.He wished he could do more, he wished he could go through the labour for her or somehow take away all the pain she was feeling. She was in tears and in great pain and it broke his heart.Seb had tears in his eyes too but he tried as much as he could to hold them back. Jayda relied on him for support and he had to be strong for her."I can see her head, babe, just a few more pushes and she will be with us." Sebastian encouraged, before placing a kiss on her sweaty face."You can do it Jayda, you're the strongest woman I know." He added.Another tear rolled down Jayda's cheek before using all the strength left in her to push really hard.Lo and behold, the cry of a bouncing baby girl followed suit.Jayda jammed her head back against the pillow and heaved a sigh of relief."You did it, my love, I'm so proud of you." Sebasti
Cold Showers Chapter Forty six
Days LaterJayda was seated behind her desk, going through some files when she felt a weird movement in her belly.At first, She got scared, hoping nothing bad was happening to her daughter. She gently placed her hand on her belly and when she felt the movement again, happy tears welled up in her eyes at the realization of what had just happened."She moved!""Her baby girl kicked!"Jayda wanted to go to the rooftop and shout to the whole world that she felt her baby move for the first time.Smiling like crazy, She reached for her phone and dialled Sebastian who picked up after a few rings."It hasn't even been up to two hours and you're missing me already." Sebastian teased from the other side."Sorry to burst your ego, my dear fiancé, I wasn't missing you. I just called to let you know the latest about your daughter.""Is anything the matter? Do you need me to come over?" Sebastian asked, already at alert."Nothing is wrong Seb. She moved. I felt her tiny kicks.""Are you for real?"
Cold Showers Chapter Forty Five
The Next DayLilian was still fast asleep in her room when Jayda went to open the door for Roman. She had texted him the night before and pleaded for him to come over this morning and she was glad he heeded to her request."Why didn't you tell me anything?" Jayda accused.Roman rubbed his palms together and let out some air."Lilian and I trust you, we know you will always be there for us. I honestly don't know why we never told you about it. I guess it was a shock to us and we were trying to deal with it in our own way to avoid pity. Had I known bringing the issue of a child will tamper with Lilian and I's relationship, I would have never said anything about it.""She said you really want a child and she could see the desire in your eyes when you look at other people's children.""I won't lie, I do want a child and if I can't have one with Lilian, I would rather not have one at all.""The baby issue started when we stopped using protection when making love. I said I will be the happie
Cold Showers Chapter Forty Four
A few weeks laterJayda couldn't help but think something was wrong with Lilian. It has been almost two weeks since She and Sebastian came back from their one week vacation and she hasn't seen Lilian.Whenever Jayda called to greet her, She could tell something was not right and no matter how much she persuaded, Lilian would not say anything. Instead, she would give an excuse to end the call with Jay and also promise to call back but never did.Jayda also reached out to Roman, Lily's boyfriend, maybe he would give her a hint on what was going on.Roman assured her everything was fine but she found it hard to believe him.Having decided that she has had enough, Jayda made up her mind to go visit Lilian; a surprise visit. She knew if she called to inform her that she was coming over, Lilian was going to make some silly excuses and give her lame reasons why she shouldn't show up.After four rings, Lilian finally answered her door."W...what are y....you doing here?" She shuttered when she
