Michael held June's hand as they got into the house, Melissa closed the door after them and quickly hurried inside to stand beside Frank. Angel was already sitting on the chair as she focused on the television before her.

"Michael you finally made it," Frank said and stepped forward engulfing Michael in a bro hug.

"Of course, I couldn't disappoint, not when we have been planning this for a while now," He said with a smile.

"You couldn't disappoint because that day would be your funeral. I cooked all sorts of food and you know how much I hate wasting my food" Melissa said

"She cooks once in a while so you better appreciate this, it's a once in a lifetime opportunity Michael" Frank joked and they all laughed.

"June don't stand there looking like a stranger, I waited for two weeks for this day to come, we will have so much fun together," Melissa said and June smiled before the both of them hugged.

"You should have let me bring a side dish for them" June nudged Michael in the waist w

    June stared at Michael's face after the last thing he said, if she heard him correctly he just told her that was in love with her. "Michael if this is a joke or a prank, can we stop now?" She asked with a shaky voice, Yes he told her that he wanted more earlier and she was still trying to process it and define her feelings. "I didn't mean to hurt you with my words June but believe me I'm sincere with you," Michael said and before June could give him a response, Melissa and Frank came out of the kitchen "We will finish this conversation at home June, till then just get it off your mind and enjoy your evening," Michael said"You are right," June said and she smiled at him. "What were you two love birds talking about while we were away?" Melissa asked as she dropped the four wine glasses on the table. "We should be asking you guys that question," Michael said pointing at frank who had red lipstick on his mouth. Melissa and Frank coughed before he dropped the wine. "You guys were bu

    Michael opened the car and June stepped forward and tried to put Angel in her car seat but she won’t let go. "Let me just take her from you," Michael said and June laughed "Don't worry, I guess I'm going to have to go home with her on my lap" June said and Michael stared at her to know if she was sure about what she said."It's fine Michael, I will manage, let's go home," She said and Michael closed the door after she got into the car. He got into the driver's seat and then started the car. All through the journey home Michael made sure his eyes were on June and Angel in the back seat. When they finally arrived home, Michael opened the door for June again and she took Angel into the house.June successfully took Angel's clothes off her and then puts on her pajamas for her before she tucked her into bed.

    Michael" June whispered as she stared into his eyes, She was looking for reasons to doubt him, but in his eyes, it was written that he wasn't lying or joking. He was really in love with her."I said I love you June," He said again before holding her hand on the bed which she withdrew from him instantly."I have to go home," She said before she stood up from the bed and then began to look for her clothes on the floor. Michael stared at her with wide eyes. He didn't understand what the problem was because he had made her understand that he had feelings for her. He had played the scene of confessing to her in his head a million times already and now that he finally did it, he felt a weight off his shoulders and he was hoping she would take it well, but he must have been wrong to think that June was in love with him because her behavior now showed that she didn't care about his feelings but just sex. He stood up from the bed and then he held her hand to stop her from ransacking the room.

    Michael left for the office as soon as he dropped Angel at her school, He had decided to take her to school that morning because he felt like she was already getting too attached to June. June might not accept him in the end so they had to start getting used to their lives the way it was before she came into it. "Mr. Stahom, I have been talking to you for a while now but it seems like you are lost in thoughts," His secretary said as she tapped his table."I'm sorry I was just thinking about something, what were you saying?" He asked her and she placed the file and a cup of coffee on his table. "You haven't been taking coffee for a while now and suddenly you asked for a cup of coffee this morning," She said "I take coffee at home that's why but I wasn't able to take a cup today and that's why I asked you. I'm fine you don't have to worry" He said and she nodded. "Mr. Frank is outside," She said and Michael stood up from the chair in hurry. "Tell him to come in, Frank isn't a visit

    "Please I would like to speak to my sister in private, I want to know what led to these things," June said and she nodded "Out, now" June almost yelled and Layla went out of the office while June followed after her. On the way out of the office, they saw two women and a man rush into the office and June guessed that it was going to be the other girl's parents. The principal must have also called them."You must have a pretty good excuse for this Layla" June said as soon as they were out of sight. She turned to look at Layla whose lips were trembling as if she was going to cry. "I'm sorry June, It was not my intention" She sobbed"Did you beat those girls up?" June asked and she nodded in affirmation. June sighed and then paced up and down. "Why?" She asked "They kept calling me an orphan" She cried out and June stared at her like she had seen a ghost. "They called me an orphan, they said my parents were dead and when I told them to stop bothering me, they called me poor. I tried

    When June got to Angel's school with Layla, she saw Michael's car in the driveway, it was kind of hard not to see a car you have gotten in and come out of many times now. She and Michael still hadn't cleared the air between them after last night and she wondered if seeing him would be awkward. "You don't have to say anything if you don't want to Layla, it won't take much time," June said to Layla and she nodded. The two of them got into the school and June went to the principal's office, She had been there before so she knew the way to the office. Layla followed behind her."Michael" June called as soon as she saw him. Angel ran up to June and hugged her in tears even before she could get close to Michael."The girls in school were mean to me. They called me names June and made fun of my daddy" Angel said in tears and June hugged her back. "Layla is here" Angel yelled in excitement as soon as she saw Layla. She left June and went to Layla to hug her. The two girls sat on the bench w

    "Michael, I need to think about what is going on between us before I can give you a reply, can you please wait till then?" June asked him and the smile on his face widened. "Of course June, that's all I want to hear. I'm heading to the office now. if you need anything let me know" He said and then got into the car. She waved till his car left the compound before going into the house to continue with the chores that she couldn't finish yesterday due to the news with her sister.

When she finished with the chores, she made lunch, and then she decided to nap till Angel will get from home from school. *****Angel got back from school in the afternoon when June had finished with her chores already, "June" Angel shook June's body and called her name till she opened her eyes.

    June was in the kitchen making dinner while her sister and Angel are playing in the living room. She put the food in the oven when Angel ran into the kitchen and then walked her to her with a frown. "June" She called in a silent voice and it was at that moment that June knew that the little girl was feeling down. "What's wrong Angel, aren't you playing with Layla anymore? Or are you hungry because I'm making dessert right now and dinner is almost done" June said and she nodded in refusal? "Where is daddy June, when is he going to come back?" Angel asked with a frown. June dropped the spoon she was holding and then took off the apron around her waist and hugged Angel. "Do you miss your daddy?" June asked and Angel nodded her head in agreement. "I'm sorry honey, it's been days since you saw him. Michael must also miss you, he was in a meeting when I called him earlier this morning" June said "Can I call daddy now, I want to talk to him June, I miss him?" Angel said and June smiled

    Michael bent down, his lips against her cheek, brushing it lightly, and still, that light touch sent shivers through her nerves, shivers that made her whole body tremble. He brushed his mouth against the hollow of her temple and then his lips were on hers again. June stood on her toes and reached up as she pulled him down to her, He kissed her gently, carefully, but it wasn’t the gentleness she wanted, not now, not after all this time, and she knotted her fists in his shirt, pulling him harder against her body. He groaned softly, low in his throat, and then his arms circled her waist, gathering her against him, still kissing. His lips tasted like honey. They stopped to catch their breath.He smashed his lips on hers again. she tasted so sweet and he could smell her perfume from how close they were. Slowly, he lifted her from the ground and carried her to the counter so she would sit before he spread her legs open. "Wait in the kitchen?" she asked with her eyes open wide. "I don't

He couldn't ask June to go with him because he knew that she had to watch the kids. "I would have asked you to go with me but I know you wouldn't agree to go with me because of the kids," Michael said as he tossed his clothes on the bed. "I asked you to fold them" June complained and then folded them for him before she placed them into his box neatly. "I have you to do it for me," He said and she rolled her eyes at him. "I know, I want to follow you too, get time to ourselves, time away from the girls but I can't leave them at the same time because of how things are now, the cops haven't caught the other men who tried to kidnap Layla or the actual person who gave the orders so we have to be careful," June said and he nodded. "I know that baby, and if it weren't for the fact that

    That evening, Michael watched as June baked a cake with her sister and Angel in the kitchen. "Stop standing there, at least make yourself useful even if you can't bake Michael," June said and he frowned. "I'm fine with just watching you bake for the kids from this place June so ignore me and keep doing what you are doing," Michael said "I'm done, I just have to put the slices in a plate for the kids and then I will be with you," June said and Michael nodded. When Angel saw that June had finished baking, Layla was washing the pans in the sink while June cut the cake into big slices, Angel rushed over to where her dad was standing and then beckoned for him to bend down."You want to tell daddy something?" Michael asked and she nodded. He bent down and then she grabbed his hair "Daddy, I just want to tell you that June is a great mummy to me" Angel whispered in his ear and Michael beamed with joy.

    Michael's phone began to ring again and they ignored the call thinking it was the head of the IRS department that might be calling. But June couldn't focus on any other thing the way the phone was ringing so she picked up the call for Michael. "Good afternoon, Mr. Stahom isn't in a position to receive a call now, you can leave me a message to give to him or call him again in the next one hour," June said politely "I'm sorry ma'am but it's important, can you tell him that the chief of police would like to speak to him, concerning the case with the attempted kidnap from yesterday?" The man said and as June heard him mention attempted kidnap, her heart began to race and immediately she understood that it had to do with Layla. "Hello, are you still there ma'am?" The man asked disturbing her thoughts and she remembered she was on a call before.
