Song: Taylor Swift - Breathe.
Zara.
I burst into the bathroom door of the hotel and stood in front of the mirror, breathing wildly like I had just run a marathon. The tears were flowing freely now. I felt like I was stabbed in the heart. I hadn't ever been this hurt because of a guy.
I had only been in two bad relationships. One ended when I found out he was cheating on me, while the second one excommunicated me after he slept with me. But none of them hurt me the way this had.
He had a whole family on the side and...
It felt like there were bricks on my chest. I couldn't breathe.
I felt two soft hands wrap around my shoulders. My head was down but I couldn't find the energy to bring it up to see who it was.
"Breathe" a female voice cooed with a very thick British accent.
"Breathe"<

Barbara 'Lotanna' above..Song: Meghan Trainor - Badass Woman.Zara.I got down from the car quickly and stalked towards Aminu. I was blown away by him waiting the whole night but still angry the fact that he didn't go home like I told him to. This little gesture of his was forcing me to talk to him.I got to him, giving him a stone cold stare. His posture straightened when he saw me coming. He looked sad. He wasn't the lively, cocky, arrogant Aminu I knew. Now he looked like a little boy."What are you doing here?" I asked him angrily. He sighed and scratched his nose."I told you I wouldn't leave till you talk to me." He said casually. I could tell he was trying to mask the fatigue in his voice.I shook my head frowning at him "So you slept in your freaking car? Are you insane?" I yelled

Zara.Song: Patoranking ft Wizkid : This Kind Love.I stood with Aminu in the elevator at his company, Garba corp. I fought all urges to look at him. He stubbornly insisted that he shows me my office while I'm here.We stood side by side in an awkward silence, trying to ignore the current prickling in the air. It was a private elevator but it felt so hot like it was crowded.We heard the ding of the elevator, indicating that we were on the fifteenth floor. The hallway was very quiet as though everyone was on a holiday. I followed Aminu as we reach a door I recognized as his office door. I wondered why he was taking me to his office. But I figured it was a detour.We walked through the doors and we were greeted by his assistant who wasn't at all familiar. This was a different guy who didn't seem as rude as the one I met the other day. I was sure his rudeness got him fired.

Zara.I sat in Aminu's lap as we watched Hip Tv music videos. It was a top ten countdown for the best videos of the week and they were currently playing 'Blow my mind' by Davido and Chris Brown, which was number two on the countdown.As it played, Aminu buried his face in the crook of my neck, burying kisses all over which made my heart flutter as he sang along...'Wanna drink from your water, give me a cup. I don't just want a sip. I wanna steal your love, I'm guilty of it. I don't give a shit!'I moaned at the sound of his melodious voice that was creating a pool between my legs "mmm your voice is amazing.""I know" he said smugly."So arrogant" I said feigning disgust."But you love it don't you?" He sang, grinning at me.

Zara."I love her" he said and my jaw dropped on the floor."What?" I breathed.I looked at Aminu to see if there was any sign that he said it just to get Louis off our backs, but there was none. He looked mighty serious.At the sound of my voice he looked at me and then looked back to Louis who had stopped pacing."I love your cousin. I would never hurt her, you know me." He repeated, walking closer to Louis. I was still scared that Louis would surprise us and throw a punch.Louis rubbed his chin in thought "Okay but you should have told me first man. Not cool" he said much calmer now and I let out a breath i'd been holding.Louis smiles at Aminu then looked at me "But effective immediately Chizaram you're coming back to the office."

Zara POVI was back in my office and to be honest, I kind of missed my space. Aminu making me stay in his office with him brought out a claustrophobia I didn't know that I had. Knowing that he had his eyes on me the entire time made me nervous to no end. I liked it and hated it at the same time.There wasn't much work to do on my desk today so I was idle. Just reminiscing the good times Aminu and I had in his office. It was the best time ever but it had to end at some point. Even with the fact that we were so into each other, we were distracting each other as well. With what Aminu had told me about his brother Patrick wanting to be CEO and sabotage him, it was important that he had optimum concentration so it was best that I had left.A knock on my door brought me out of my thoughts. "Yes, come in"I turned out to be my friend Tanna who was now the hea

ZaraMy mouth went dry. My throat was coarse. That moment when Nonso said those words was the very moment I knew that I fucked up. I couldn't help but think of how Louis must be resenting me for what I did to Lola. But that should not have made her work for the enemy. Louis told me all about them. How they tried to poach most of their staff with mouth watering benefits, how their boss was hitting on Lola who's his fiancée and now she's working for them? That has to be the most disloyal shit ever."Fuck" I exclaimed before I could catch myself. I immediately started worrying for Louis. Where was he and what was he doing "Where's Louis?" I asked Nonso."He went home rather furious. I think you should go to him. He needs someone around because it's really not good when he's angry." Nonso said with his head down rather timidly, like he was saying things he shouldn't. I went into panic mode at his words. I turned back

ZaraSurprised was an understatement as to how I felt when Louis hugged me. I was expecting shouting, yelling and cursing. That hug really took me aback and I wondered what was going through his mind. Was he angry? Did he blame me? I felt so much joy at his embrace and hoped that it wouldn't go down hill from there.I returned the hug, gently rubbing on his back to sooth him because I knew he needed it. My actions made him tighten his embrace. I was so sad seeing him this way and I knew why. In as much as I didn't like Lola I knew that he loved her dearly.I waited for him to pull away first and when he did, I led him to sit in the lounge area of the study with Aminu trailing behind us and taking a seat. The study looked almost exactly like his office at the company with the only difference being the color of the chairs which were grey instead of black. The set up was the same."I'm so sorry about th

ZaraWe all walked into the club which was bustling with people. Tanna and Tiara whom Tayo has called earlier were by my side with the guys trailing behind us. The music was so loud that I was sure I would have lost my hearing if not for the ear muffs they gave us at the door to lessen the intensity of the sound.This was my first time coming here and I was in awe of how beautiful and luxurious this place was. Louis did a very good job with the place and it seemed to be popular because they had stopped admitting people in because of the crowd.Louis came up front and lead us to the VIP section which was less crowded and more chill than the rest of the club and as an ambivert that I was, this suited me perfectly. Although the lights were dim enough, we could still see where we were going.Once we were seated, Louis ordered us some drinks while we social

Aminu. Previously... "Ma'am this is from Mr Garba" he said and gave me a card. "What's that?" Tanna asked. I opened it and smiled "aww it's a note" "Aww. Read it out" she said. So curious for gossip. I giggled. "To my Angel Wife, I remember the day we met. It was then that I knew that I wouldn't let you slip through my fingers. At first sight I knew that you were the one for me. I didn't care about anything else other than being with you from that moment. I just knew I wanted to see you happy. The love I feel for you is strong and eternal. My Queen, you are the light in my life, the air in my lungs. You give me purpose in every way and I am so happy you agreed to be with me forever. Your aura has consumed me and I want to bask in the light that you give for the rest of eternity. Today, we seal the deal and I just wanted to s

Zara Previously... "Sorry ma'am I didn't wasn't to keep you waiting so I had to let you in before they were done." Atafo apologised. "There's no need to apologise. I don't mind" I shrugged. Tanna who had been silent all along tapped me pointing at an armless gown she seemed to like. "That's a really cool design." Tanna said. "Feel free to move around and choose. I'll be waiting for what you decide. You can also have this notepad to write down your thoughts." He said and gave us a notepad. We began our search. The gowns on display were all breathtakingly gorgeous. I was so shook at what Atafo could actually do with those hands of his. I Was already imagining what my wedding dress would look like. "So do you have anything in mind?" Tanna asked me. "Yeah I have an idea of what I want. I want an armless dr

Zara Previously... "Do you miss Greece? We could go back soon if you want." He said taking my hand across the table. "Yeah but we will plan it this time Mimi. No surprises." I warned and he sat up, putting his hand on his chest. "Promise ma'am" he said. "Good. So what are we eating, I'm hungry." I said and took the menu. The dinner date was really fun. We had laughs and talked about everything. Also gossiped about a few of our friends. We basically dissected everything while violating table manners. But we didn't care. Once we were done with our three course meal of exquisite delicacies, as of on cue, music started to play. One of my favorite songs at the moment. Odo by Johnny Drille. "Can I have this dance ma cherie" Aminu held his hand out smiling while I laughed at something he had said earlier.

Zara. Previously... When the police man had chained him to the table and left, Patrick started laughing. "What's funny" I said frowning. "You know, I never ever thought that I would ever see you again in my life" Patrick said, still chuckling. "Well, one last time wouldn't hurt. I used to consider you my friend." I said and folded my arms. "I used to be in love with you you know. Or should I say, infatuated." Patrick said and chuckled. It seemed as though he was finding himself amusing. "I know that" I said. I surprising was not feeling any emotions right now towards him. Everything was well and okay. He didn't disgust me the way Jasmine seemed to. "Yeah and you know I didn't intend to shoot you. I'm really sorry." He said. "I just hope you don't hate me" "I don't Patrick. Have y

Zara Previously... The judge was rested back in his chair, but his face held shock and fear. Probably fear for knowing someone like Jasmine. Aminu who was sat beside me had become furious again and I stroked his arm to calm him which he was responding to well. The silence in the room was deafening for a few seconds before the judge finally spoke again. "Wow, officers, I don't know what you people are waiting for. Cuff her immediately." He said with venom in his voice. The policemen who were stationed in the courtroom went forward and cuf

Zara Previously... Your honor, my client is not guilty of the allegations on him. First of all, this child is legally his son which means he had all the right to have the boy in his custody however, the way it is being narrated is not how it happened. My client went to the Plaintiff's apartment which in his magnanimity he had given her, only to realize that she had run away from the house along with all her belongings leaving just the boy, the nanny and a letter confessing all her crimes against Mr Garba here. My client having a good heart, took the boy into his home even after finding out that the boy is not his. So your honor, this whole case is a lie and shouldn't even have been a case in the first place." My lawyer said and sat down. "Objection my Lord! There is no evidence to back his claim" Jasmine's attorney said.

Aminu. Previously... Almost a week had passed and it was finally the day that we would stand trial with the arbitrator. Aminu had pushed for it because he didn't want the stupid case to taint his brand which was the wise thing to do. The arbitrator would essentially keep everything on a low and not attract press to it. Or so I thought. I hadn't spoken to Aminu even after Tanna's intervention. Now I was ready and I was going to surprise him at the arbitrator's office. There was no way I would leave him to do this alone. I didn't tell Louis because his big mouth would tell Aminu in a heart beat. On getting to the venue for the trial, contrary to my belief, there was a swarm of press people with microphones and cameras at the doors to the building. What the hell? Who told them where it would be. I decided to hide and slip in undetected. I met a secur

Zara. Previously... "Yeah I get it. It's very nice of her though" I said and sighed, rubbing my eyes. "I really miss Zara. And Nas has been crying, he wants to see her. I'm always scared of going home to him because he'll start hounding me with questions and crying again." I said rubbing my face in frustration thinking about how sad Nasir was that Zara wasn't there. "Did he do that when he was brought to your house in the first place. Like did he cry about Jasmine?" Louis with his nosiness asked. "Not at all. It was like he didn't know the difference. Nasir for her was always a tool to use to get what she wanted so I believe they didn't have much of a relationship with each other." I said and sipped my usual glass of whiskey. "Don't worry, she'll come around" he said and his eye twitched. That was something I learnt over the years to look out for if Louis

Aminu. Previously... "Both you and Jasmine will rot in prison, I will make sure of that" I said, gritting my teeth. Anger rose in me and I had to fight of the urge to get my hands around his throat and kill him there and then. But then I had to allow the law take its course and Zara.. she wouldn't be happy with my line of action. "I've accepted my fate brother. I wish I did things better. I probably would get a life sentence or worse, be executed which I'll prefer because a life sentence is a fate worse than death. I have never asked you for anything before but I will do it now because this is a mutual need. Make sure Jasmine goes to jail or dies. That is my only wish." He said this time looking me in the eye. "That's easy. And for what it's worse. If you hadn't betrayed me and had told me about the fact that we were brothers from the onset, I would have accepted you with all the joy in the w
