GEORGE. I was driving home after work and each time I remembered about the kiss with Keira, a smile would cross my lips. It was something I couldn't forget. I was getting closer to my penthouse gate as my smile turned into a frown on seeing Isabel, standing In front of the gate. It was 8:30pm, what the heck was she doing in front of my gate by this time? I thought I had made it clear to her that I wanted her out of my presence. I stopped the car abruptly and climbed down, approaching her. I had no idea why she was showing me her white pearls. She is becoming more annoying each day. What the heck was funny. “You are back. I have been waiting for you, George.” She said and I raised my brows. “No one asked you to wait, Isabel. Now what's the matter?” I questioned, my voice squirming in urgency. “Are you still angry about that day? I told you you were the one that insisted we go to my apartment.” She began rambling again. “Quit it. Why are you here? ….” I cut her off sharply. She s
KEIRA. I couldn't stop thinking about that kiss with George, it was such a passionate kiss. Even though I wanted to deny that I didn't enjoy the kiss, I enjoyed every bit of it. I should have pushed George away but I just couldn't. I tried slipping off his arms but I couldn't. You those emotion filled kiss, it has been five years apart.. words alone can't describe how the kiss with George felt. I knew if George went further, I wouldn't have been able to stop myself. I was so immersed in the kiss that I forgot every other thing that mattered. I literally forgot every damn thing that troubled me. I was just in the kiss alone, kissing George with everything in me. I missed him, I fucking missed George so much. It was as if I came to my senses and facing George was going to be such a big deal for me, moreover my cheeks were two times red than before, it would be so embarrassing. I kept my gaze on the car window until we landed in front of the office building and I exited as fast as I
KEIRA. At the restaurant, a woman who I suspect to be one of the waitresses, led me to Sebestian..The restaurant was so empty or Perhaps Sebestian had rented it for the date. It was such an expensive restaurant, how could he rent the whole of it? The clinking of my heels could be heard as I walked towards him. Sebestian flashed me a smile when he saw that I was dressed in the things he sent. “You came…” He muttered when I finally got to his destination, his lips curling a smile. “I did…” I answered, managing to return the smile. “I'm glad you decided to give me a chance today, Keir. I'm going to make it worth the while” Sebestian assured and I twitched my lips, words not even coming forth. “Oh,...” He gasped,coming in my direction to pull out the chair for me..“Have a seat…” He offered and I beamed at him and was about to take a seat as he spoke loudly. “Wait a minute,” he demanded, causing me to freeze. Sebestian pulled out his suit jacket and covered me properly. I was sup
KEIRA. I was never able to read Sebastian’s expression throughout the dinner. He said he had lost his appetite and that was his final say. He wouldn't eat after spending so much money on this date. Sebestian had his gaze glued on his phone while I ate the pasta. I wanted to ask him if everything was okay but I didn't even know what to ask.“Ermmm…what made you lose your appetite? You spent so much not to even have a proper meal,” I said, half way the meal. Sebestian didn't act like I said a word but he later lifted his gaze to me.“Don't worry about that.. just hurry up so we can leave.. I also need to get to work early tomorrow.” He said and focused back on his cellphone as I heaved a sigh and managed to finish up. Sebestian driving me back to the apartment was even the weirdest. The aura with him was so awkward, he kept his gaze fixed on the road until he got to the apartment and I climbed down. He drove off without a word.. That was unlike him and today was such a waste of my ti
KEIRA..I found myself unwittingly smiling back at George. George's smile has to be one of the most contagious smiles ever. Those dimples, his eyes, everything was worth dying for. When I got my senses and realized that I was smiling back at him, I adjusted myself and turned my gaze away instantly. Not drooling over George was the most inevitable thing ever, he was everything a woman wanted in a man..“Good day sir!” Adrian stood to his feet when George walked past him..“Good day to you sir!” Cassandra added and I flipped my eyes closed as I was hiding eyes away. Should I be greeting him too? I wondered..I didn't hear George’s voice returning the greetings to them so I turned to see him standing in front of me as I swallowed hard. Before I could say a word, George leaned in and kissed my forehead and my heart stopped, a cool shiver running down my spine instantly. He is making this hard for me. He is making it harder for me to keep myself together. ‘Don’t turn red please, don't t
KEIRA. George pulled over his penthouse and I couldn't even stare at his face after climbing down. What the heck were we doing here? George began walking in but I didn't follow him since I was a bit hesitant about entering the penthouse. What the heck should I do? “Aren't you coming in?” He turned to me when he got to the penthouse door and saw that I had not been moving. “Why are we here? You have to tell me.” I insisted, furrowing my brows. “You complain too much, do you know that? You lived here with me for some weeks before. Why? Do you think I will eat you” He muttered. “That's different! We are….no longer together” I stressed the last words and in a low voice..“We are together, Bambi. You are my girlfriend” He said confidently and I parted my lips. He keeps saying this! It is not that I don't want to be his girlfriend though and it's not like it doesn't make my heart flutter but…I'm kind of scared. “I'm not though…” I replied. “You are…” He insisted. “I'm not” I argued
KEIRA. “What?” I asked in a low voice, did I really hear him right? Move in with him? “Move in with me, Bambi… let's live together like….” He was repeating the same thing as I called out his name in the mid sentence. I dropped my cutlery and leaned back to the chair, fixing my gaze on him..“George, stop it, I can't…..” I declined firmly. “Why? Bambi?” George asked, his gaze not leaving mine. “I'm sorry, I can't….. I didn't even accept to be your girlfriend, why are you doing this to me?” I asked, my tone a bit cracky. “So I'm asking you why? What's your reason? You are keeping me in the dark, for five years now! What the fuck is the grudge you have against me? Why wouldn't you say it?” George raised his voice about my disappearance for the first time and I could hear the pain and frustration in his voice.. I could feel my heart ache. Suddenly, I'm reminded of why I disappeared in the first place. I had allowed myself get swayed over the past days. I was busy getting so excited to
KEIRA. The next time I opened my eyes, I was in George's king sized bed naked, his hands wrapping firmly around my waist. I sucked in a sharp breath and bit my lips in anxiety. I did it with him, I lost control and slept with George. This is so fucked up, I shouldn't have. This is a mistake, I lost so much control, this can't go on..it can't. I had such an amazing time with George, I felt so alive after a while. I'm not supposed to regret it but I still can't help myself.. I just feel like I'm losing it. My eyes went over to the wall clock, it was 5:00pm already. I left work around 1pm, and I was still here with George. I was supposed to cuddle and enjoy all the times I haven't been with him but I feel so selfish doing it. What about Kelvin? I should exit this place. I gently took off his hands that were wrapped around my waist and stood up, picking up my belongings one after the other. George carried me up to his room after I pulled off my skirts, so the last belonging I had was do
Author's POV. Keira’s eyes fluttered open, and the first thing she saw was George sitting beside her, his eyes locked on her with a gentle, steady gaze. He was holding something wrapped in a soft pink blanket, his expression pure wonder. It took her a moment to remember, her breath caught as reality settled in. Their daughter was finally here. “Bambi” George murmured, smiling as he noticed she was awake. “Someone wants to say hello.... We have a baby!" A warm wave of emotion washed over her as George leaned in, bringing their baby girl closer to her. Keira took in the sight of their tiny daughter, barely able to believe it. Her heart felt like it was going to burst. Soft tufts of dark hair peeked out from the blanket, and tiny hands rested by her face, impossibly small and delicate. “Oh, she’s… she’s perfect,” Keira whispered, her voice barely audible as she gazed down at their daughter. She lifted a trembling hand, gently tracing a finger along the baby’s tiny cheek. The warmth,
KEIRA. I can't believe my wedding day was finally here. After all the obstacles, after what seemed like it wouldn't be, I was getting married to George. The man I met six years back, the man who made me feel everything love was about. He accepted me, he accepted my flaws. He chose to be with me no matter what. He decided to be a father because of me. He changed his rules just to be with me. The universe was on my side on this. I bless the day I met him at the bar, the day he ignited an unquenchable spark.. The morning of my wedding to George began in a daze of rose-colored light and breathless excitement, like a dream I was trying to hold onto but that kept slipping through my fingers. Sunlight pooled through the soft curtains, dusting everything in gold. "Keira!" Elena squirmed, stepping into the bride waiting room. I giggled at her.. "Wow! You look so stunning! George wouldn't be able to keep the thing in between his legs one place!" She joked, her sense of humour making me gasp
KEIRA. Some days later I got discharged from the hospital, I lost my baby. I still can't believe this. George has been consoling me like forever. He keeps telling me we would make another one but I was really sad though. What if it doesn't come again that easily. I prayed it would. Kelvin needed someone by his side. We would have all the sex in the world so that we can make a baby.. After his work hours were over, George came home. I was speedily recovering as well. I made dinner and Kelvin had gone to sleep after consuming his dinner. I was in the living room when he came home.. He beamed at me with his eyes and scooped me into his arms into the same manner, gently placing me on the floor. Our eyes locked and my heart raced in anticipation and exhilaration at the same time. George watched me with lustful eyes, my elbow was pressed on the floor since I was wedging my upper body with it. He gently pushed my legs apart and a soft gasp escaped my lips once he did that. He push
KEIRA. A familiar hum filled the air, a mix of beeps and muted voices that seemed both distant and near. I really wanted to get over the news from Doctor Peter. It wasn't all that easy for me to take in because George stopped protection long time ago. I was still in the hospital, tethered to tubes and a heart monitor, feeling the dull ache radiate from my shoulder. Slowly, I opened my eyes, and the room came into focus. I really I lost my child. I think I might have fallen into another slumber after the news. "Keira?" George’s voice was soft, laced with relief, and I turned my head just enough to see his face inches away, his eyes wide with a fragile hope. “Hey,” I managed, my voice raspy, like I hadn’t spoken in days. “You…you look awful.” He snorted, frowning. "You have been sleeping... I have missed you" He gave a short laugh, the kind that holds back a well of emotion. His hand found mine, his fingers trembling slightly. “I have missed you like crazy. I'm so sorry for what
George's POV I held Keira's limp body in my arms, her blood seeping onto my suit. The sound of gunfire still echoed in my ears. Our engagement party, once filled with laughter and joy, had turned into a nightmare. Keira, I would never forgive myself if I lose her. Never. "Keira, no! Stay with me! Bambi, please!" I pleaded, my voice shaking. My eyes was filled with tears as i continued shaking her roughly. I rushed through the crowded hall, shoving aside panicked guests. Sirens blared outside, growing louder. "Get the car!" I yelled at Mark. The hall had gone so chaoti, people.rushing out for their safety. I wouldn't blame them, the gunshot erupted from nowhere. "We need to get her to the hospital now!" I yelled, tears in my eyes. I had no idea who I was yelling at but if I lose Keira, I'm gone. I couldn't seem to control myself. I was supposed to be calm for Keira's sake. I was supposed to reassure myself but I was panicking more than I should. Elena rushed us at the stage
KEIRA. The hall was a dream. soft pink roses, strings of glistening fairy lights, and golden drapes swayed lightly under the room’s chandeliers. I could hear the clink of glasses and the gentle hum of people chatting, laughter mixing with the soft music filling the air. It was a celebration of George and I..Our engagement party was everything I’d dreamed it would be. It was perfect. George had his guests all over the place, influential personnel, stars in New York. He invited A list celebrities like he said he would. George was across the room, A radiant smile that had melted my heart from the start plastered on his face. His dark suit fit perfectly, the deep navy accentuating his broad shoulders and making his hazel eyes more striking. He was in a deep conversation with Mark, occasionally looking my way with a wink. I gave him a small wave, feeling my cheeks flush. Even after all these years, he still made my heart flutter. They fluttered like crazy. I stood,greeting some of G
KEIRA. I slowly opened my eyes, blinking away the haze of sleep. Sunlight streamed through the window, casting a warm glow over the room. George's gentle hand held mine, his hazel eyes watching me. I was so surprised he woke up before me today.. A huge smile crossed my lips. "Good morning, bambi " he whispered,a smile playing on his cheeks. I smiled faintly,feeling a wave of nausea wash over me. My stomach churned. I felt this way yesterday’s morning but it wasn't as bad as this morning. Was I sick or what the heck was wrong with me. “Good morning handsome” I returned the greeting. I quickly sprang up the bed and rushed into the bathroom, feeling the need to vomit. George didn't hesitate to come after me, closing the bathroom door behind me. "Bambi, are you okay?" I couldn't answer because I had begun , vomiting uncontrollably. My body shook, and my stomach churned. I don't think I can do anything today. My body feels so weak. George's worried voice came through again as he
KEIRA I returned home and Kelvin came out of Joe's quarters and hugged me. He was mostly with Joe since the holidays. I have been giving it a serious thought. Perhaps I should just quit and become a housewife. My son needed me so much and I wasn't doing much at work. I went in with him and he was quick to remove his uniforms. I went to the kitchen to prepare dinner. I had to feed Kelvin then showered him, put him to bed. I took mine and came downstairs to wait for George as usual. George came home and beamed the warmest smile ever. I would punish him for not telling me he announced our engagement in the news. I frowned not returning the smile even though I wanted to.. “Bambi….what happened?” He questioned, coming close to me. “You didn't tell me you were announcing the engagement in the news. Our engagement party is next week and I didn't even know!” I grumbled and he let out a low chuckle, coming close to me at the dinning table. “Didn't you say anytime was okay
KEIRA. The fire service cleared the fire. I would never understand how that fire broke out. It was really out of nowhere and surprising. But thank Goodness no one got hurt. Everyone went home safely. George had to hire cleaning service providers for them to clean up the fire and the rooftop. “I wonder what happened?” He said to me when we were seated in the living room. Night came by so quickly and since I excused myself from work to celebrate Kelvin’s birthday, we just stayed at home watching TV that night. Kelvin was in the living room with his toys but on the floor. My head rested on George's shoulder and he gently rubbed my arms. “I really don't understand how the fire broke out. It just started all of a sudden but thank Goodness, no one got hurt” I replied. George inclined closer and kissed my forehead. “I was really surprised and worried but everything is okay now I guess. …..”He responded and kissed my forehead again. I sighed deeply, we were in eachother's arms un
