KEIRA. I stepped quietly into the office, my eyes drawn to George's chair, its back facing me like a barrier. But as he sensed my presence, he swiveled around, our gazes colliding. My heart stuttered, skipping a beat once our gaze fell on eachother. We stared at each other for a while with words hanging in the air. George took off his cold expression that instant. He looked more cold than he would appear previously. I cleared my throat and stood erect. I was happy seeing him, I haven't set my eyes on him since that day and I can't say the same for him..“I'm here to check out the office for the design….” I said and he didn't reply immediately until after a few seconds. “I didn't think you would come. I thought you didn't want to be in the same space with me” He muttered in a direct tone, his cold expression still on me while I squeezed my lips together. “I'm here for work. You are diverting the focus to our private lives…” I answered and he rolled his eyes with a deep sigh.. “I
KEIRA. After what felt like I had come back to my senses, I pulled my lips abruptly and turned over, finally opening the door. “I'm…I'm sorry!” I stuttered, rushing out of the office. I can't say what came over me to have kissed him like that. I rushed to the elevator and pressed the button before George would even think of stopping me. I scurried out of the company and took a cab back to work.. Somehow, my heart didn't feel so heavy as it was when I just came into the company. George hugged me, he missed me and I kissed him. I began fanning myself as I was inside the cab. I felt so hot, my body was burning and I knew my cheeks were so red! I better not be like this when I get back to the company. Adrian and Cassandra would talk! I picked my phone and dialed Elena’s number. I haven't spoken to her for what seems like forever. Maybe she would be the only one to understand me and tell me what to do in this situation. I have even forfeited going back to work. I had an excuse at least
KEIRA. The door bell to the apartment rang in the morning and I wondered who could be here so early. Clara was preparing Kelvin for school while I was preparing for work. I was almost done, was it Sebastian perhaps? But he knew the password to the door..I walked to the door and peeped through the spy hole, George? I sighed deeply and turned the door knob, Clara was with Kelvin and I didn't want him to show up. George is yet to see Kelvin and since Kelvin has a striking resemblance to him, he might find out instantly. I had told so many lies because of this, I also want to clear them up myself. “Good morning….” I greeted, not opening the door fully. George beamed at me, standing tall with his imposing figure, on his navy blue suit. He loved that colour so much. “Ermmm…. I came to pick you up, Bambi…” He muttered..“What?” I asked in a low voice. “We have an unfinished business at the office, did you forget?” He muttered and I arched my brows at him. What unfinished business was
KEIRA. George was kissing me so hungrily and I was returning the kiss, I was supposed to be pushing him away but I just couldn't. I was so into the kiss. My hands had gone over to circle around his neck. The smacking of our lips covering the air. George's lips tasted so sweet. I have kissed George a lot of times since we met but each time feels so new and refreshing.George’s hands squeezed my breasts through my shirt as we kissed. We are not even supposed to be doing this in his office but we can't help ourselves and each time George touches me, I oblige,only to regret it a little later when it has become late. I shouldn't be getting intimate with George until we have resolved this issue but I'm losing it. George is driving me crazy..George began unbuttoning my shirt and I didn't even stop him, I was rather impatient. I joined in unbuttoning my shirt as fast I could and flipped it over to the side. “You are ready, Bambi ..” He panted after pulling his lips away.. He captured my li
KEIRA. “With what ? Talk.. you are scaring me, Bambi.” George muttered, tears welling up in my eyes..“Kelvin ….. Kelvin…. You know…Kelvin….” I was almost at it but it seemed harder now that I was close. George grabbed both of my arms and kept watching me closely. “ Kelvin what?...” He asked again..“He is…” I suppressed a sniffle, my lips quivering. “What is it? Bambi? Talk to me…” “He is ….” I stammered, wiping the little tears that fell through. “He is what?! What the heck happened to him!” George raised his voice in frustration..“He is your son!” I blurted and George arched his brows sharply, his face etching in confusion. “What?” He asked in a low voice, his gaze darkening. “He is your son …. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you all these while. I was just scared…” I apologized. George took off his hands on my arms and stumbled backwards. “What are you talking about?” George asked again as if he couldn't accept what I had just said. I had already said it and there was no need
GEORGE. I have wanted to despise Keira if it were up to me. She suddenly disappeared without a trace or word.. That was enough for me to give up on whatever we had but I can't stop myself. Keira was the only woman on earth that had made me feel this way. Even when Isabel left me because she couldn't bear the fact that I didn't want to father a child, I left her because we had different paths..I knew it would be a hard decision for any woman out there to decide not to give birth to a child which is among the reasons I stayed unmarried even as I'm already fifty five. Even when I assumed the reason for Keira’ s disappearance to be the fact that she mistakenly had a child with Sebastian and was hiding from me probably because she felt guilty. I hated betrayal more than anything.. I was surprised to find myself yearning for Keira even after I found out. I had no idea what to do, I felt like the most confused human being on earth. I needed courage to be able to father my own children,
#A month later# I haven't heard from George since after that day. A day passed, two days passed, like that, a month passed without hearing anything from him.. What I feared so much struck me and I was still holding myself from falling apart. The last few weeks haven't been so bad. I visited Elena and talked with her at times, Kelvin would play with Sarah... Elena even had a huge altercation with Mark after he found out he knew Kelvin was George's child. He told Elena there was no trust In their marriage but I'm glad they later settled. Sebestian continued playing the father figure in Kevin's life.George never bothered me nor did he show up. I guess this was actually the real end. It never got to a month for him to reach out to me. But just like that, he ignored Kelvin and I for a whole month. I didn't stop working at the company, we were growing and Adrian had even hired another extra employee. It feels like life was okay but still incomplete. I still felt a huge gap in my happin
KEIRA. Sebestian and I started dating. Nothing much though, we get to do things we have been doing. I used work as an excuse to dates except maybe weekends. But it has only been a week since we started dating so on saturday, we went to an amusement park with Kelvin. Kelvin enjoyed himself with Sebastian a lot. We played games and had ice-cream. It was quite a blissful event especially because Kelvin was so happy.After the weekends, monday came by so quickly and I went to work. Adrian announced that we got a huge project to design a penthouse, like the whole of it, not redesigning, it was a new penthouse and the three of us were involved in it, including the new employee. Day one of the penthouse interior designing went smoothly. Day 2 went quiet fine until day 3. Everything was going smoothly until that event occurred. We were still in the living room but Adrian wanted to do some things in the rooms upstairs and he asked me to get him some materials.. We were still waiting for t
