Ugh, I love Rome. It's one of my dream countries. Question of the day: If you could go anywhere, where would you go?
We were about to enter the cart when I saw the little boy who gave me a coin helping out his mother in a food stand. He was wearing worn out clothes and I immediately felt bad for him. I pulled Ethan with me and walked towards them. The little boy smiled at me making his entire chocolate eyes sparkle. "Two tacos please," I told the woman who looked so tired while she placed the tacos. She handed it over to me."5euro," the woman said in a tired voice and I took out a hundred and gave it to her."You can keep the change," I said immediately and her eyes widened. I had my assistant change some money into Euro for me last night. "Thank you so much" the woman held my hand with tears in her eyes and I smiled at her. I bent down to the little boy’s level and brought out a fifty and handed it to him despite his protest."Thank you for your coin" I whispered softly making his eyes widen. I ruffled his long brown hair and took Ethan's hand in mine."Have I ever told you how amazing you are?"
Being together is greatGrowing old together is amazing,Having a family is betterTaking care of the family is everything.© OluwatoyosiPrecious POV.It's been two months since we got back from our honeymoon. It has been amazing waking up to my husband and going to bed with him."So, what are we going to do about the shipment?" Daphne, my assistant, snapped me out of my daydreaming about my husband."Send it to everyone that ordered," she nodded."You have a meeting by 4 p.m. with Candler Inc." I nodded, not being able to speak because I felt sick in my stomach. I rushed to the bathroom to throw up. I had been throwing up since morning, not to mention the way I've been feeling sick these past few weeks, when we came home. Daphne rushed to my side, holding up my hair and rubbing my back."You need to see the doctor, ma'am. You've been sick the whole week," she said sharply, since I've been denying going to the doctor."It's just the flu. Don't worry," I said, waving it off."It's not
"To the mall!" I told the driver excitedly. He drove us there, and I quickly got out, rushing to the kids’ section while dragging Funke, who was laughing at my excited face.I bought a small onesie that said "I love Daddy," paid for it, and went to the grocery store. I bought all the ingredients needed to make our favorite food, paid, and left. I checked the time, and it was past 4 p.m., so I decided to go straight home so I could cook."Will you come with me?" I asked Funke, and she shook her head."No, I have something to do in the office; besides, this is something you need to do yourself. I'm happy for you, babe," she hugged me again, and we dropped her off at the office before I left for home.We pulled up at the house. Ethan had surprised me again with this house; he said he wanted us to have a huge family, so he built a mansion with 8 rooms, one for each of our six kids, even though I protested. The house was homely because his mother designed it with my mother. It had an enorm
Precious POVComing to New York has always been my dream. And now, that I'm here, I just can't believe it. It's even more beautiful than I thought. I stood outside the airport, looking around for a taxi to take me to the apartment, my best friend and I will be staying.My name is Precious Ifeoluwa Dare. I'm a 23-year-old Nigerian and am here for my master’s degree program. I wouldn’t consider myself as short, with my 5’4” stature, that’s not short, right? Anyway, I have a coffee skin color with long black hair courtesy, of my mother.The sound of my phone ringing snapped me out of my thoughts. I pulled it out of my pocket and looked at the caller ID, allowing a small groan to come out of my mouth as my mom's name flashed on the screen. Sighing, I picked up the call and kept walking. "Hello, Mummy" I greeted softly, as I used my shoulder and ear to hold my phone, so I could get my luggage off the pavement. "Precious, how are you? Have you landed yet? How's the place? How's Funke?" I
We reached the hospital faster than I expected. Ethan came down and walked over to my side and opened the door for me. Mumbling thanks, I stepped out of the car, and together, we walked into the enormous hospital. As we got to the front desk, the receptionist quickly stood to her feet with a surprised look on her face. Why? "Mr. White, good afternoon. What can we do for you, sir?" the lady asked while ignoring me. It didn’t bother me though; I was still bothered by the fact that she knew who he was. How does she know him? "I'll like Dr. Resnic to come, and take a look at my friend’s arm" Ethan replied with an indifferent tone and she quickly called the Doctor through an intercom, who appeared beside us in a minute. What just happened? "Aaha Mr. White, to what do I owe this visit?" the blond doctor asked, as he held a nervous look on his face. "My friend here needs her injury cleaned and wrapped" Ethan replied. Friend? Did he just call me a friend? The doctor nodded and gestured
Precious POVI was jolted awake by the sound of loud noise. Picking up the alarm clock, I slammed it into the wall and groaned at its interruption. That's right, not a morning person."Precious" I heard my name being called and Funke soon, walked into my room already dressed while I'm still trying to shake off the sleep in my eyes."Are you not going to class? It's your first day and you already want to be late" she said, shaking her head at me."I'm up, I'll be down in a minute" I laughed. See what I did there? No? okay. I tried to stand up, to show her that, I was serious about being awake.Standing up, I stretched a little as Funke left the room and entered the bathroom to brush my teeth and have a shower. I looked at my coffee wound of yesterday and frowned at the fact that it was getting worse and it still hurts. Confused as to why it hasn’t started healing, I made a mental note, to go back to the clinic. Walking out of the bathroom, I dress up in my favorite black, round neck,
Precious POVI didn’t like mornings. I had to drag my lazy self out of bed; strip and entered the shower. The cold water woke me up fully, and when I was done, I dried myself and brushed my teeth. I quickly put on a yellow summer gown and brown heels.Putting my hair in a neat ponytail, I walked into the kitchen and to my surprise, Funke was already there making breakfast."Wow Funke, this is the second time you are awake this early, and your making pancakes?" I asked carefully, since she rarely cooked, let alone woke up early."Don't sound too surprised, I couldn't sleep. Too much work" she said making me glance at her. She looked like shit. Her fair skin, still glowed a bit, but her eyes had bags under them."We have Mr. Ethan's class this morning, we need to leave now if we don't want to be late" I stated, as she placed the last pancake in her mouth. Mr. Ethan sounded so weird coming out of my mouth but he was our guest lecturer and I needed to respect that. "Alright, eat up let
Precious POVSaturday rolled by faster than I expected. So, here I was, laying on my bed, wide awake, as I kept replaying the adventure of the past week. First, I come to New York, and ended up in the hospital, met a hot billionaire, had lunch with him for the whole week, and decided to go to a stupid gala. And even though, I never pictured my first week here, to be so, eventful, I enjoyed the food as much as it was annoying.I came here with one aim, which was to finish my master’s and not end up in a crazy relationship. Sighing, I rubbed my face with my hands. To be honest, I was just scared of even liking anyone at this point, and it boiled down to the fact that guys in my life have been one hell of a ride, and I didn’t want to resume.But then again, I couldn’t help but think of Ethan's smile, his laugh, his weird eating combinations, or how different, he was from everyone else. Maybe, it’s because of the change of scenery?Sighing, I stood up from my position as it was already pa

I can show you the worldI can make you smileIt's a promise, my loveFrom me to you. © Oluwatoyosi Precious POV I woke up first to see Ethan still sleeping peacefully. His thick black hair was rumpled, his head was once again on my bare chest with his hands wrapped around me. He looked like a hot mess. I moved his hands gently so I could stand up. Thankfully, he didn't wake up. I wrapped the second duvet around my body and went to press the button and ordered breakfast silently. I was on my honeymoon in Rome, staying in a suit, I was going to enjoy it and even though there was a stocked up kitchen, I didn't feel like cooking. I moved carefully to the bathroom to pee. I brushed my teeth, had a hot shower, and came out wearing a white silk bathrobe when I heard the knock. I rushed to the door careful not to wake him and collected the tray of food from the bellman, tipping him from my purse, he thanked me and left. I sat down by the bed with the tray on my lap and gently removed hi
It's time to spend, spoil, love,It's time to cherish, care, flaunt...Finally as one, thick as thieves,We will be ours, in every way. © Oluwatoyosi Precious’s POV The feeling of hot breath tickling my neck woke me up with a smile as I saw Ethan staring at me with adoration in his eyes. "Hmm... I really think I would love to get used to this" I whispered softly. "Good morning Ífé mi" I blushed at his endearment, letting a yawn escape my lips. "Good morning indeed, babe," I said back making him smile wildly. I don’t think I would get tired of his smile. It simply made his beautiful blue eyes sparkle. "Let's go shower," I let out a squeal as he carried me from the soft bed in the private plane. I should have expected he had other plans, and so after the rough love making, I was really sore. He placed me down with him behind me, switching on the shower he helped me bath. Once we were done, we stepped out and we got dressed when we heard the pilot telling us to take our seats sinc
I am yoursYou are mineIn every sense,In every way...©OluwatoyosiPrecious POVOkay, I was already thinking something was up cause we weren't heading to the airport, instead we were driving to a place I'd never been to but I was sure it was still Lagos."Ethan where are we going?" I asked curiously."It's a surprise" he smirked and I glared at him. I wanted to know now."Fine," I huffed angrily, folding my hands on my chest."Don't be like that love, we'll be here soon. I have a lot to do tonight," he purred seductively kissing me then nibbling my earlobe causing me to moan. I slapped my hand on my mouth. I didn't want the driver to hear me. He kept kissing my exposed neck and switching to my lips simultaneously. I didn't notice we had stopped."We're here," he said with a full blown smile. The door opened making me jump away from Ethan. He pulled me out to see a house. A big beautiful house that could easily be recognized as a mansion stood before me. "Ethan, why am I looking at
"I wasn't prepared to get slapped by a short fierce black girl, so if someone had told me I would be marrying a Nigerian girl then I would have laughed in the person's face. I wasn't prepared to meet you. You came like a light in my dark busy world, you came with your playfulness, your seriousness, your activeness, your fierceness, your Independence, but I love it all. You are my queen, the person who gives me peace, the person who gives me a reason to work harder and faster, the person who gives me a reason to love, the person who gives me a reason to keep going. I know I don't say it a lot but I love you, you are the person I want to wake up to, the person I want to live with, the person I want to see every night. You always told me God puts people in our lives for a reason, well you are my reason. I promise you today before man and God that I will love you, cherish you, take care of you, spoil you, be with you, and stick with you for the rest of our lives. I love you to the infinit
Here I stood, behind the giant doors to the church in all my nervousness."You look beautiful," I jumped at my dad's sudden voice but smiled either way."Thank you daddy. I'm so nervous," I admitted, because if there's anyone who could make my nerves go, it was my dad."You can get out now,"Woah, that wasn't what I expected."But think about how you will feel. Is it worth it with him? Will you be happy with him? You need to be selfish right now and consider yourself. Are you doing this for him or are you doing it for you?, Is he the one you want to wake up next to every day of your life?, Is he the person you want to have children with?, Is he the one you want God to join you to? These questions can only be answered by you. If you can't then you still have time to get out. But I want you to know that I'm proud of you no matter your decision" I thought about it.Ethan was the only one who made me feel peaceful apart from God. He was the person I wanted to see every day of every minute
I have waited so long for this day,Where I hold you in my arms,Where I kiss you with my heart,To tell you, you are finally mine..© OluwatoyosiEthan's POVI have dreamed of this day. I have thought about this day.I have waited for this day. Now it's finally here.It's my wedding day.I was standing in front of my mirror fixing my red tie as I kept thinking of my vows. I had suggested that we write our own vows and here I am, stuck, because there are so many things I want to say."You are going to make a hole in that mirror if you keep glaring at it. Aren't wedding days supposed to be happy days?" my dad's voice brought me back to reality, I hadn't noticed I was glaring at the mirror and made my hand get stuck in the tie. I sighed and looked at my dad. Maybe he could help me."I'm stuck dad. I was the one who suggested we write our own vows and now, I can't seem to make up my mind," I confessed and rubbed my temples while my dad laughed. The old man freaking laughed. I stared at
