Divorce proceedings
Barry's POV
"She's playing nice? She's not being rude. I still find it hard to believe" I said to Jennifer with a smile on my face
"Me too"Jennifer said taking a cup of tea from her own desk"Well..let me say..this is a new turn for you guys"
"What do you mean?" I raise my brows.
"You two can fall in love with each other and.."
I stared at her and she caught my gaze and shut up.
"I'm sorry" she apologized
"Let me make things clear to you Jennifer, I am not in Love with Violet. Do you know what Victor told me be
I gripped the tray harder. It must not fall. What would be me reason if it did, because I was not comfortable with the fact that they were laughing with each other. That's ridiculous Violet."Water." I walked up to Jeniffer and handed it over. Something is pushing me to pour it on her"Oh thanks!" She said still her her laugh mode, drinking the water before she dropped the cup."Jennifer wants to stay over ...since it's a Saturday tomorrow" Barry announced to me."No I'm not." Wait , she's not. That means Barry wanted her to stay."Come on, we could play games or watch teen wolves " Barry said"Eww. Who still watches that?" Jennifer groan."Actually I fo." I cut in with a frown on my face and she and Barry stared at me."I'm sorry if I made you feel.."she tried to apologise"Of course you did" I said in a bit of an angry tone and she bit her lips. She was surprised I admitted that she made me feel inferior"Violet
Jealous...I don't think so2***Barry's POVIt wasn't Boring watching Teen wolf, neither was it boring with Violet but anyways she slept off on my shoulder. I laughed as she let out a small snore and I rested on the sofa to make her comfortable on my shoulder. This was what Victor had always wanted. He had wanted his sister to be happy. To be safe. And I'm so happy she is. I owe it to Victor.Her hair came to her face and I slowly shove it off to the back of her ears. Even though she slept she still looked extremely beautiful."Ucckn..I'm Sorry" I heard from the doorstep. I look up."I could go back of you want" Ella said againI laughed"Are you serious.? Come in!""No..I could go back""Seriously, what were you thinking? You teenagers nowadays are more corrupt than I think. I just shoved her hair to her ear that's a
Barry's POV.I knock on the door of Jennifer's house"Who's there?" Lesley shouted. I kept quiet as I heard her footsteps moving toward the door."Barry!!" she screamed.l and jumped on me for a hug. I chuckled as I pulled her close and spun her."Why's my princess happy to see me?" I whined"Cause I need a lot from my king!""Okay princess, what do you want from your King?""Headset..and..Sneakers..that's all..""At your service Princess""Yay...when should I send my account details?""Do it now..""Oh thank..you thank you" she smiled along with her sister who joined usI smirked at Jenny and waved at her."Hey Queen..why is the princess in need when the queen is here""Cause..the queen is broke." 
I'm FallingI didn't know why he was upset. I didn't want to ask him. Seeing him like this has made my own anger fade."Barry what's wrong with you?"I asked him as we both ate on the table of the restaurant ,I had to ask him, it wouldn't have been nice if I didn't."Nothing"he gave the same fake smile"I know something is wrong with you..just say it""It's nothing Violet..just stressed out a bit""Its painful you can't tell me what's running through your mind"I said and he sigh"Violet?"he held my hands. I shrunk inside of me and my goosebumps popped out."There are some things you would get to understand when you grow up..one of it is..Never hide your feelings to the one you really love.. especially when you see things are getting out of hands..most girls think it's really shy and embarrassing to tell guy how she fee

I like Barry?No..it doesn't really work that way. There are still more ways..I read on. Just one law can't make me believe I really like Barry.Two: Unnecessary Jealousy*Jealousy? Jealousy? Jealousy?No! No! No! I have never been jealous.Wait! Wait!Jennifer!Why the hell would I bring Jennifer into this?He's becoming too friendly with her. Why?Because I'm not taking time with my husband she thinks she can...Wait? Jealousy? I'm jealous. I'm jealous of Jennifer.Wtf!This can't be.I closed the book.I liked Barry"I like Barry!" I screamed and covered my mouth up."Violet..is in
I rushed to my room and immediately I left the kitchen. I'm going crazy..real crazy"Hello Ella!" I said immediately she picked"Hey bestie..""Can you come to my house please?""Why?""Just shut up and come!" I hung up."Violet.." I heard Barry coming upstairs calling me. I rushed to my bathroom and closed the door. I didn't want to see him.I can't fall for him. No no."Violet.." he comes into my room"I'm at the toilet..I'm..""What's wrong with you..what were you thinking about..why did you walk out on me?""Barry..I.."I come outside the bathroom. He grabbed my hand and stared at it, then sigh"Thank God you are fine.."he saidI stared at him and when his eyes met mine. I smile"What?" He asked."Nothin
I opened my eyes as I felt locked in someone's arm. It was like a father to daughter wrap.I wasn't too shocked to see myself in Barry's hold. In Fact I was happy we slept like this throughout the night. He held me so close like I was gonna die in 3min. I could feel his breath on my forehead and I slightly looked up at him. He was still sleeping. He slept well and even smiled in his sleep. Was he happy I came to his room yesternight. I'm sure he was! I was giving him the perfect opportunity.His hand was on my waist and I wished someone could take a picture of us.Today was a SundayBarry hasn't gone to church since we got married. That's two months ago. Was he an unbeliever? I loved going to church. I love being a Christian. Although I wasn't very devoted. The main reason I go to church is because of the new guys that come almost every Sunday.. Ella and I liked to look for people who we would crush on. And those who would talk to us.
Married AgainMarried again?I entered into my humble home. Hmmn. Riches, wealth, Fame, what else does this parent ask for that they didn't get? They had it all and wanted more of it.Victor would say 'Violet let's go for holiday to Canada, mum just saw a business opportunity'. He always says that to me whenever my parents see a business opportunity, he uses that to protect me against my parents who prefer to sell me to anybody to gain what they want. Once we go to Canada, it protects me from my parents. Victor had always protected me. I loved him with all my soul. Without him I don't know where I would be by now. But when he died. Barry's parents and my parents strike a deal. His parents were richer than mine so they would do anything to meet Barry's parent standard. My parents preferred to sell me to Barry to gain more fame. I never knew why Barry agreed to the marriage when he was asked if he would marry me. He was my brother's best friend. He was supposed to
SexivversaryWe rented a private beach house in the center of the sea, it's a warm and Earthly place and I feel that's what we both needed, somewhere cool and serene and as I smile at her beautiful face I am the happiest man in the universe."This place is so beautiful.." she cooes, slipping out of my grasp. I nod my head slightly and she slaps my shoulder, winking at me. And that's her, my Violet, troublesome and lively. "Last to get to the sea is a fish!!" She squeals and we start running. I would have surpace her but I let her win and she starts jumping around, splashing water on me."Fishie.." she says teasingly and I frown my face, walking towards her. "Call me that again and you're a dead meat!" I tell her but she's not scared, she splashes water on my face and starts laughing. I get annoyed and do the same but she's not stopping, we continue splashing water on each other, laughing heavily like little children just then my hand braces her lap and she stops. Time slows down and
She made a fuss about how I should have told her earlier that it was an easy thing and I shouldn't keep such things away from her next time. Of course, I was baffled, she's not someone who can help in such situation, but she gave me so many reasons to trust her. So I hired my friend to work as a secret investigator for me. Every weekend she will sit around the table and laugh over what's going to happen to that slutty CEO and here's what we did.Natasha rigged in her private affairs, and we discovered she's always been that way, sleeping with cute men before signing a deal with them, but we are going to put an end to that. Luckily for us, she always takes a picture while in the act with aim of blackmailing them if they refuse to get to her demands, see who's going to face sorrow, haha. My joy knew no bounds when Natasha showed me those pictures, she said she got them from her boyfriend who was a broker, great news right? Having Natasha around me was the best thing that happen to our
A dream of mineVioletI step into Rich living Education, and I am wowed. The building is so big and gigantic, the company is the talk of the town, and I am here to send in my resignation letter.Funny right?I have been working as an instructor in this huge organization, and it's been quite a chase. As a philosophy teacher it's really difficult to think about others aside from your job and students, what you want to talk about next, the trending news. I've been working in Rich Living Education for two years now, and I'm so proud. As the saying goes, you might not know what you have until you lose it. Well, it is happening now. I'm just coming 5o realize how beautiful this place is.Making the choice was a difficult one, family crises here and there, leaving Barry to go to California and here I am, happy. Fulfilled. If for anything then it's me making the best choice, I need to be something, I shouldn't just depend on my husband. I can still remember his face when I told him I was lea
I stand at the foot of Victor's grave and just stare wordlessly. I don't even know what to say. "If you were here, I know you would be so happy for me." I say, sitting down on the grass."I miss you so so much." I feel something on my chest, I check and then realize that it's my tears. I'm crying. Who wouldn't break down?"Thank you for bringing Barry into my life. A lot of times, he behaves like a replica of you. He loves me, cares for me, protects me just like you would. At it's you I have to thank for that." I sniff and wipe my tears with the back of my hand.Today is the date I lost my brother. I woke up feeling gloomy, and I just knew it was time. It's been so long I visited this place. I get home and see Barry on the floor, crying too. I quickly move to his side and see he has a picture of Victor clutched in his hand. His shoulder quakes as he cries like a baby. I go to his side to hold him, crying again too. I try to make out the words of what he's saying, but the sound incoh
University don't leaveBarry's POVSince after the party Violet threw for us, my parents have been bugging me to bring her over for dinner. It's been almost two weeks and I've been giving them different excuses. Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't want to take Violet to dinner with them, it's just, I don't think she's ready for all that. Meeting my whole family. I know it's going to be overwhelming for her. I haven't even told her yet, but it's looking like I'd have to tell her today or tomorrow. My mum called again this morning. She's beginning to feel like I'm avoiding her. It's not like Violet hasn't met my parents before, she has, on several occasions. But all those times, her parents have been there too. This time, it'll be just us. I know Violet well enough to know that her nervousness would be over the roof. I look at the work left I have on my table. I need to round up and head home soon. If I'm not home on time, Violet would get worried. I push the distracting thought
Barry's POV"Seriously Violet, you are always so full of antics." I tell her, and she just makes a silly face at me. It's Saturday today, and I just wanted to spend the whole day indoors with Violet, but she forced me to dress up, that we're going somewhere, but she has refused to tell me where. It's funny because I'm the one driving. She just keeps giving directions like a boss. The past few days she's been acting weird. Not in a bad way, I just feel like she's hiding something from me. Every time I look at her, she has this mischievous smile on her face. I wanted to ask her about it, but I decided to just let her do her thing. Violet is crazy, but it's what I love the most about her. I have a feeling that where we're going has to do with all that being coy lately. Maybe it's why I didn't make so much fuss when she started forcing me to dress up. I just really wonder where we're headed because she looks so hot too. When I saw her in her dress, I couldn't resist kissing her. She loo
Chapter 38Seeing Jade made me think about everything all over again, but this time, I'm no longer sad. Barry has forgiven me, and I've forgiven myself. We all make mistakes. What we should do is learn from them and move on. I've learned from my mistake, and I'm moving on. A small smile plays on my lips as I think about moving on. I'm reconciled with Barry. We'll no longer fight, and even if we do, it'll be because we're both imperfect human beings with differences. Not because we hate ourselves or are unsure of our feelings. As for Jade, I hope for his sake that he is able to move on and find love somewhere else. I almost thought he was going to cause me trouble, but all he said is that he'll always be there if I need him. His words touched me. Jade is a really nice boy. Whoever ends up with him will be so lucky.I step into the house and Barry is seated on the couch watching a movie. He looks up at me and flashes me a beautiful smile. My heart flutters in my chest. Will I ever get u
"Are you ready for the day?" Barry asks, and I am starting to miss him already. I sip my tea and reply him."Yea. Mum will be here in about a minute-" I have barely finish talking when the doorbell dings. "She's here!" I squeak, he wiggles his brows and I shuffle out of the seat and rush to open the door."Oh my sweet Violet, you're looking so bright this morning, trust you had a great night?" She says in one breath, and I am forced to look at Barry who pulls out an innocent shrug when he catches my glare."You know right mum," I blush, "please come in, we are just having breakfast." I tell her, and we walk to the table together.While on the table, Barry keeps staring at me, even when I catch him staring he won't look away, I am getting so nervous already and Mom is starting to notice it."Are you okay? You look shy." She says softly, and I look at Barry immediately, she follows my gaze and sees its Barry, only then does Barry look away. "Baby, are you sure you want to go home?" My m
ReconciliationViolet's POVI wake up to find myself in Barry's arms, I couldn't believe it at first, but last night's escapades replayed in my head making me giggle softly.It is quite a wonder that I played in my own game, quarrelled and later romanced. I never believed Barry to be so sweet and romantic. Sweet chillings! I've always known Barry to be caring and cute but not this romantic.Last night was wild, we couldn't get enough of each other, we were busy ravishing each other, he even ate my. ohhh butterflies…Can I ever get enough of you, Barry?That I'm not sure of, though I took the first kiss but did I know how sweet his lips were? Not until he took the second step that I know what love really portrays. ``kiss me again, Violet`` I can still hear his hush words, his soft breathing, his lovely eyes filled with all the emotions in the world - his soft hands that grazed my tender skin softly, trying not to break me, his tousled legs wrapped around mine sending chills into my sys
