2024-10-29 19:42:56It was obvious his tenacious mother and over-prioritized father had invaded his privacy once more, dashing all his immediate plans of eloping with charlotte to the mud.
Jason groaned in frustration, he flung some clothes off the hanger, furiously dragging his expensive leather box out of the wardrobe, and began tearing out everything in it without a second thought.
Seeing red, Jason marched down to his parent's quarters in the east wing muttering incoherent words to himself as he ignored the weird looks by the servants around.
"Where is it?!" He exhaled watching his mother carefully like a predator.
Olivia stopped applying her night lotion and smiled once she saw her son came home.

She woke up to murmuring, people were talking inaudibly in the hallway beside her door. Sophia thought it was happening in her late afternoon dream, but she woke and still heard two voices murmuring outside her door and one had masculinity to it. she wasn't expecting anyone, not Stan nor Maureen and her doctor was supposed to come in the early mornings. she sat up under the duvet to listen for a while. "Is she here already?" The male voice asked. "Yes_yes sir, she is but she's sleeping. you can meet her once she's awake, her doctor thinks_" The feminine voice was interrupted harshly. "I don't care what the doctor thinks, and I don't care to see her." Hisses. Sophia could hear footsteps retreating, and nothing. She didn't grab much from the little conversation but she guessed it was one of her maids. either Sabina or the other one whom she didn't know her name.But who she was talking to? She didn't know. But that was the least o

Jason finally moved in!... He moved in, having nowhere else to go for shelter he was forced to move into his new home. But he did well to see that they both never saw each other. He wasn't ready to become friends with anyone. So he'd return home very late at night and stay up all night in the living room to drink to stupor, whenever he managed not to get drunk outside. The drink helped his insomnia. Found it very difficult to catch a good night's sleep especially when the reason was just rooms apart. So he drank till he could forget his sad and haunting conscience. Then the next day he'd wake by 8:00 am after his morning routine he'd run off to God knows where. In his mind, he thought Sophia wouldn't want to lay eyes on him or speak to him at all. He thought she hated him for her situation. So he didn't want to see the pain in her eyes nor hear her bitter words. As h

Maureen visited!.... Maureen stormed the house with her noisy nature and demanded the maids rush to the kitchen and prepare varieties for her. Claiming she was supposed to be treated as a very important guest because it was her daughter's home. And so the maids did as she commanded. Luckily Sophia had no therapy sessions. "Dear you look so well and younger, bet your husband is good with you" she tried to tease. Sophia barely smiled. "Welcome, how is the house-hunting going for you?." "It hasn't been easy dear, my friends and even my enemies now want to be helpful because they think I've got gold, and of course I have. it's not easy becoming in-laws with such a rich family." She bragged caressing her costly chain watch. Sophia noticed, Maureen was becoming very extravagant and wasn't sure where the money was from. "Sure." "These girls you keep around are very incompetent. how long does it take to prepare a three-co

Jason had a huge fallout with charlotte. She was beginning to pressurize him, demanding they both elope to another city or country altogether as previously planned. Charlotte seemed to forget that what held him home was much more than he could explain. He couldn't leave his fortune and run off with nothing all in the name of love. He wanted badly to run away with charlotte and even get married but, he would lose everything and have nothing, and charlotte wasn't the most decent girl, she wouldn't be able to cope without money or understand that he was broke. She loved to spend a lot even on unnecessary things. She could spend money on trivial things because Jason was always there to pay. But this time the wheels changed. He felt more peaceful in his new home than with charlotte. She began to nag unnecessarily and her mood swings. Jason already lost count of the number of times she had

Lights... Someone pushed open the curtains and window blinds letting the morning sun sweep into the darkroom. Sophia stirred in her sleep. The bright rays causing her to lose sleep and she opened her eyes.It was too bright outside, you could never guess after a long cold, and drizzling night that the sun would be so intense. She sat up on her bed and recalled last night's event. she turned to space next to her hoping to find Jason there. But he was gone. But the sheets were rumpled indicating someone was once there. She thought when he must have woken and limped back to his room. If she could remember properly, his injury was very painful because he kept on grunting and trying to ease up his pain. He must need some help with it. Sophia turned to Sabina who was getting her bath ready. "Did... Was someone here when you came in?" She asked unsu

"You sent for me?." "Yes I did, this is yours" he dropped his passport on the mahogany table before him. "What's the need for it then? Thought you seized it?." "Your mother told me how you accosted her because you wanted to elope after your wedding," Ernest said, adjusting in his armchair. Nodding in realization. "She tells you everything. What's left to say then?." "You insulted her!... Am alright with you disappointing and disrespecting me but your mother?!." "It wasn't my intention to" Jason defended himself. "I was pissed off, I felt like a teenager! I am an adult for god's sake and still have my parents seize my passport without my knowledge." "We wouldn't treat you that way if you had the least respect for yourself." "Then why give it back now? Or you think I've become comfortable in my new home or I've suddenly become respon

He woke subconsciously!... He stared at her sleeping form beside him. She was a deep sleeper, He noticed!. He would often wake in the middle of the night, either to grab a cup of water or use the bathroom but she never for once woke, only stirred. He also noticed how disturbed her face looked sometimes like she was having a nightmare. But often she slept peacefully, which was why he always found himself beside her at night. It became worse after he walked in on her with the doctor, Stan. He was filled with envy, he never had to beg for attention from any woman. They always came begging with it even charlotte at some point. But Sophia was different, it was like she was immune to his charms and influence. It disturbed him to the core to think she was his wife and he deserved some attention from her but he got none. Only what he could afford was to admire her sleeping form and steal back

She felt pressure there!...Sophia woke in the midnight pressed, but felt like a log of wood was pressing down on her abdomen, she stirred and whimpered.Almost like a struggle for breath, she sat up and Jason was cuddled beside her with his left hand around her abdomen and she needed to use the bathroom quickly, having no legs was already an extra delay to her immediate need for relief.She peeled his hand off from her but he didn't budge. She almost cried. She forgot to use the bathroom before going to sleep. that was the only way she wouldn't wake in the middle of the night to pee because it was always a difficult task especially without the help of any of the maids.Now Jason seemed too tired to even stir unlike him. he was always woken by the slightest of noise. Sophia didn't want to disturb him but had to or else she wouldn't make it far even to the bathroom door.She pushed an

Soundtrack: (Memories by Maroon5)🎵🎶 Three months later... The butler who stood at the entrance to the Bestman inc. Handed him his fur coat efficiently as he sighted his boss's son stepping out of the elevator with some of the company workers, they were all engulfed in their deep conversations that they didn't notice anyone else around. As business tycoons they were, every other thing around them didn't matter at all until they were out of the company premises, It was all strictly business. After a few banter with his colleagues, Jason finally took the opened door and stepped out into the cold winter. It was Christmas already. The streets were filled with Christmas vibes with decorations of white, green, and red everywhere. Children in the playground built snowballs and castles. You could see the anticipatory smiles on people's faces because it was a season of love and sharing. J

He hated the smell of hospitals... It nauseated him to the brim. Everyone there always looked somewhat depressed and pitiable and it wasn't a nice feeling at all. Jason adjusted his black nose mask which he intentionally wore to prevent excessive inhalation of the hospital antiseptics and drugs that had become a permanent smell. As he walked through the hallway in search of the cashier section for the final discharge bills with his unkempt curls bouncing all overthe place without care, Jason observed the stolid atmosphere, there were a lot of people trooping in and out of the general hospital all in their world of problems alongside their loved ones. It depressed him to know that such an amount of people fell sick each day. It may sound unbelievable but he never needed to visit a general hospital even at a younger age. But when Mason called the day before, informing him of Sean's attempt to take his own life, Jaso

Touche, if the tear rubber Audi E-Tron that came as a wedding present a few months ago was human, it would be ballistic for the graceless and heavy-handed way Jason drove it in the streets through the highway to the familiar quiet aesthetic area he lived in. The thrill he felt at the latest discovery that Charlotte wasn't pregnant for him was unimaginably relieving. The only thought in his skittish mind was Sophia. His dear wife, to return in her arms as he left her that cold morning, and if only she would still be in her silky nighties with her curls shrouding her high cheekbones and plump lips nothing would give him more pleasure than to cup her in his arms and apologize for his irrationalities and promise her forever together. It would settle any indifference she had towards him. Jason smiled at the thought of something new with Sophia. She was like a breath of fresh air that he'd longed for and he knew deep down

Ernest Bestman paced about in his office deep in thought. His wife and son were seated across him with uncertainty. Jason sat beside his mother feeling uncomfortable and anxious.He was scared of his father's reaction towards his current situation. Yesterday's events had him running on his heels with alacrity for solutions. He couldn't stomach the intensity of what Charlotte had thrown at him the previous day prompting his early rise. As he took a longing glance at his breathtaking innocent wife spread on the rumpled sheets drawing in alluring shallow breaths, the sound a strong sedative, an antidote for his persistent insomnia which had haunted him since the incident that brought them together. He would have loved for nothing more than to lay by her side till whenever the sun was down. Jason shook his head in dismay at his hopeless romantic thoughts. Carefully and unwillingly he s

It rained heavily that night!... He was drunk and drained of energy. He wanted to give up everything so badly but the thought of a lonely someone kept him sane and he wanted to fight for what they had till his last breath. That was his conclusion as he stepped into the dark cold room to find her awake staring into nothingness. His feet felt too heavy to move once her apprehensive gaze fell on him, her countenance changed to that of a stranger. “You still keep them around?” Sophia questioned dryly. Jason stopped moving closer. “What?!.” “What did she want now?” she continued, ignoring his previous question. Jason wanted to explain everything from top to bottom, but the intensity of what he was about to say weighed down on him so much, he was afraid Sophia could not bear it. “Why are you doing this?... What’s your bloody aim Jason?!” she

The August visit!!!... Charlotte rushed towards Jason once her gaze fell on him. It had been weeks and days he had been avoiding her and she didn't know what to do. The first time she came to his house she was dead drunk and didn't know her bearing. She had to prod Sean before he revealed Jason's address. Relieved, was how she felt setting eyes on Jason who looked angry and tired. She fell into his arms before Jason could comprehend a thing. "Baby, thank goodness you're alright. I thought you've gone on one of your disturbing escapades" she showered swift wet kisses on his neck as she clutched to him firmly, afraid he might push her away. Sophia rolled in at that moment to behold the unprecedented drama. This time around, her emotions weren't just everywhere they were drained. After the little fight, they had on their way home she was expecting to return home and rest maybe t
