Rita’s POV“So how may I help you?”“Our profound appreciation.We received our letters from the secretary, we are here to express our gratitude” Evelyn spoke first.“It is nothing I can't handle. Don't mention” Finn said.“Thank… you so much” I muttered, still baffled about Alex not being Jared.“I’m glad your mood is better than yesterday” Finn said, I put on a little smile.“You can leave now, enjoy the rest of your day”We turned to go.“No, I was talking to Evelyn” He gestured that she should leave us alone.“Ugh! Again” I heard her murmured before she exited.“Congratulations on your new Job” Finn got on his feet, stroded over to stand face to face with me.“Thanks to you” I mumbled.“Still mad at me?”“Not at all” I smiled.“You know I would do anything at all to make you happy. I hate myself each time I hurt you” His face was filled with guilt.“It's.. in the past now” I replied simply“Wondered why I promoted your friend too?” I nodded; “ She’s your best friend, and you two wi
Rita’s POV“Of course you can join us. You are the CEO, you don’t need permission. You are always welcome to our midst; anytime, any day” The most sociable Evelyn welcomed Finn.“And once again, thank you for ..”“Uh, Evelyn, it is alright. My pleasure”“On behalf of my boyfriend actually, Adam. I wanna say thank you for - -“ Evelyn continued but Finn interrupted her again.“I said it is alright” “How was your first few hours at your new work?” Finn asked, turning to me.“Good” Was all I said.“‘Good’ is an understatement “ Evelyn corrected.“Rita, how did it go with Jared?” Adam changed the topic entirely maybe because he felt like he was being left out whenever we discuss about this new place of work.“He says he is not Jared. His name is Alexander and he happens to be Finn’s brother” I replied.“Finn’s brother, Alexander?” Adam exclaimed.“And Alex doesn’t seem to know Rita at all. He wasn’t pretending” Evelyn added.“Are you sure you recognise Jared well?” Adam asked me.“Definitel
Rita’s POVI ignored Zane since last night after spamming him with such banging lustful photos. I picked up my phone, dramatically inhaled and exhaled before clicking on Zane’s message.I smiled, I loved the fact that he loved them and he didn’t criticize me for what I have done; although he didn’t send his pictures in return or in exchange because I had warned him of heavily aroused I feel at the sight of his abs alone, talk more of his huge c*ck.Since he wasn’t active - online on Kikachat yet, I called him.“Tada!!” I beamed when he picked my call almost immediately.“Rita!” His voice was filled with excitement.“How was your night?” I teased him.“If you meant last night Rita, I slept with an erected d*ck” He answered.I covered my mouth, “How do you get so comfortable saying these nasty smutty words” I asked, giggling at his audacity. It wasn't the first time he had caught me off guard with his blunt remarks.He grinned; “ It is what it is, Life's too boring if you are uptight abo
“I want to learn and grow, maybe I can do that with you” I mumbled coldly.“If you are still horny, then let’s sex chat, a video call will make it look quite real” He suggested.A video call chimed in, waiting for me to switch to the ‘Accept’ icon.But I rejected it.“Nevermind Zane, we don't need to s*x chat or have a video call. I'm less aroused now, I'm better” I told him.“Are you sure about that or you just wanna subside the pleasure”“It's all gone, I'm alright. I will let you know when I want it” I said.“Whatever you say my love, anything you wish. Should we talk about something else?” He asked.“No, let’s call it a night”“Are you mad at me? Oh! You feel awkward that I figured out you’re a virgin. I am sorry” He apologizedagain.“No dear. There is nothing to be sorry about; virginity or disvirginity is not something to be ashamed about. We are still very cool. Actually, I feel sleepy right now” I responded.“So we’ll talk again tomorrow. Good night and sweet dreams. I love yo
“I swear down Alexander, I will fire your so called friend once he resumes” Finn yelled, his voice laced with anger.“But why?” Alexander wondered.“Because he is lazy and arrogant. He didn't even show up at work today” Finn complained.“I know and that's because we were working together”“He was supposed to come to the company!”“I thought he already told you that he won't show up at the company everyday”“Oh wow, a good reason to miss his first day of resumption?” Finn grinned sarcastically.“Alexander, you’re making me do things I don't wanna do” He shook his head continuously in regret.“Finn, I thought we have already concluded the matter, are you sure there’s nothing more attached to this?”Finn shook his head; “ I don't like lazy and uncommitted people and didn't you notice he spoke to me insolently like it was mandatory I employ him. Listen Alex, you’d better get or learn whatever you want from him, so I'll fire his ass instantly” Finn raised his voice then finally sat on the c
Rita’s POV“What? Mommy??? Ugh!!” I exclaimed.“Yes dear. We wanna meet your man this weekend!”“Eh! How is that gonna be possible?”“What’s impossible about it?”“Everything! Err… nothing, nothing mom. I mean, it is too early”I whined, faltering.“Early? Isn’t it past a month now that you have been dating him? It’s not too early baby girl, I’m sure he would love to have dinner with us, Evelyn told me how humble he is” Her voice laced up with anticipation.“Yeah, uhm right.. I .. erm, mmm… I … err” I stuttered all sorts of nonsense.“So dear, saturday it is; we can’t wait to see your beautiful face, we’ve missed you so much and to meet the love of your life” My mom said. “So bye dear, till then” She hung up the call.My mind was blank at that moment, quiet to think the least.Zane’s call came in just in time.“Hey dear” He said.“I have just finished speaking with mom” I uttered calmly.“In laws call” He stated. “Hope you told your mom your man says Hi"“Zane, actually my parents wants
“What about Finn?” Evelyn asked me.“What about Finn, what?” I asked, confused and startled.“Tell him to be your pretend boyfriend, he will play the role better" Evelyn proposed.“What?” I exclaimed; my heart heavy on the weight and glimpse of what it’ll be.“What?? Finn is our boss” I didn't wanna cross the boundary“And he is your friend, the two of you are pretty much closer than just friends and I’m sure he’ll wanna do this for you”“We are just friends, we are not pretty much intimate whatsoever” I murmured.“Well, the major reason I said he will play the role of a pretend boyfriend better is because he loves you” Evelyn added.“Ugh!” I scoffed and rolled my eyes.“Listen Rita, I see no better alternative and I cannot watch you continue to get worked up when there’s already a solution” She said and I forced a smile because she truly cared.“Thank you Evelyn” I got on my foot.“I should go meet Finn now, what do you think?”“Yeah, Go right now, he’s less busy” She encouraged, gent
Rita’s POVI didn't inform Zane that I have found someone to substitute him, Finn, my CEO, the one whom he so much detest. Instead, Zane believed that I must have canceled the meeting with my parents.However, Canceling the meeting seemed even more suspicious because my mom will continue pestering the hell outta me to show them my partner and they might eventually find out themselves that I've got no physical partner. Therefore, to avoid all these further dramas, I'll take Finn home to clear the air once and for all and when next they wanna meet Finn, I'll announce to them that we’ve broke up and we’ve gone separate ways and I'm now with Zane. What a brilliant idea!I ignored Zane’s messages to make plans ahead with Finn the night before the D-day.“Hello Finn”“Hello Rita” He sounded sleepy.“I’m sorry for disrupting your sleep”“Uhmmmn”“Okay so, since we are having a dinner at my parent’s place, I think you should come over to pick me up at my place tomorrow evening firstly” I sugg
FINALE“We find love in unexpected places, trust me” Rita remarked after she and children had just finished watching a love movie."Oh wow, so that's how you met dad, in an unexpected place?” The sharp little boy who was named, Anthony blurted.Rita laughed softly as she snuggled deeper into the couch cushions, her kids perched on either side of her. "Indeed it was, my darling angels. Your father and I met at the same place of work” She briefly told them.The little boy furrowed his brow, still struggling to comprehend how his parents' love story began in such a mundane."Actually, we met before we met" Rita said, even making things more complicated for the children."Mom, I'm still having trouble picturing this," the little girl named Lily, who looked like her mom chipped in. "What kind of workplace was it? How do you mean you met him before you met him? What does that even mean?” She questioned."And how did you two even start talking?" Anthony added.The little children questioned
Epilogue 5:As Rita drifted off to sleep, a smile still lingering on her lips. Finn stood in front of the bassinet, gazing down at the two tiny bundles of joy. He reached out and gently ran his finger along the little boy’s cheeks, marveling at the softness of his skin, the delicate curve of his nose. He did the same for the little girl, admiring her dainty fingers and her rosebud lips; she looked like her mom while the baby boy looked like the father, Finn.He carried the little boy since he was awake and playful. He held their son in his arms and sat on the rocking chair next to Rita’s bed. He gazed down at the tiny baby, his heart bursting with love and wonder.All of Finn's previous doubts and fears about fatherhood had melted away, replaced by a fierce, all-consuming love for his children. He couldn't wait to watch them grow and develop, to be a part of their lives every step of the way. As he rocked his son gently, Finn thought about all the things he wanted to teach his child
EPILOGUE 4:Rita climbed the bed, wrapping her hands around her husband and resting her head on his chest as though she was meant to be there. Finn, on the other hand draped an arm around her stomach, gently touching her big baby bump.For a while, they remained in this position, a comfortable silence descending over them. Finn was never this quiet in bed. Was something bothering him?“What's wrong with you Finn?” Rita asked.Finn sighed heavily after staring at her for a while. Without uttering a word, he leaned into her to claim her lips but she pulled away.“What's bothering you Finn?” She asked again, her voice came out soft, laced with concern.For a moment, he was quiet but then, he spoke."Nothing," Finn replied with a weak smile. "I'm just a bit nervous about becoming a father. I mean, what if I'm not good enough? What if I mess up?"Rita laughed softly. "You're already the best husband and friend anyone could ask for. I have no doubt you'll be an incredible dad too. And remem
Epilogue 3:A few months had passed since Madison and Alex's engagement at Finn and Rita's gender reveal party, and now it was time for their wedding day. The sun shone brightly as Madison walked down the aisle towards her soon-to-be husband, looking radiant in her beautiful white gown.Alex waited at the altar, beaming with joy and anticipation as he watched his bride approach. He thought back to the day they met, and how he'd fallen in love with her from that moment on.As Madison reached the altar, she took Alex's hand in hers, and together they turned to face the officiant. The ceremony began with a heartfelt exchange of vows, each expressing their undying love and commitment to one another.As they exchanged rings, the crowd burst into cheers and applause, their love for the newlyweds evident in their smiles and tears.The party was in full swing, with guests dancing and celebrating, their happiness for the newlyweds filling the air.

Epilogue 2:As everyone was sitting around the patio, Rita stood up and announced, "Finn and I have something to share with you all." The guests turned their attention to her, curious about what she was about to say.As the applause died down, Finn stood up next to Rita, beaming with pride. He looked around at their family and friends and said, "We're so happy to announce that we're expecting a new addition to our family.”With a grin on Rita's face, she lifted up her shirt to reveal a small but noticeable baby bump. “we're just so thrilled to be able to share this news with you all.”Evelyn suspended whatever she was doing and ran to embrace her best friend. The crowd erupted into cheers and applause, congratulating the couple on their exciting news. Everyone began to chat excitedly, asking questions about the baby's due date, whether they knew the gender yet, and what the baby's name might be.“I and my husband has just scanned the baby, we are yet to check but then, we pleased and
Epilogue 1Ding Dong Ding! The church bells began to ring, signaling the start of Finn and Rita's wedding ceremony. A sense of excitement filled the air. Rita, dressed in a stunning white gown, was surrounded by her bridesmaids, included Evelyn, her few close friends and few nieces, all of whom were helping her to look her best. And Finn, in a sleek black tuxedo, stood at the altar, eagerly awaiting the arrival of his bride.Suddenly, the church doors opened, and everyone turned to see Rita begin her walk down the aisle.Finn walked to meet her on her way to the aisle, interlink his arms with hers and walked together with her.Everyone turned to watch the couple walk down the aisle.The priest continued with the ceremony, his voice booming throughout the church."Finn, do you take Rita to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"Finn, his voice filled
“So since you resigned, do you stay at home all day, doing nothing?”“Yeah, I already sent my application letter to some companies and I just hope one of them accepts me” Rita yawned.“Hmmn, I'm sorry about everything that happened to you” Evelyn said empathically.“Thank you Evelyn, I'm back to square one now”“Since you are searching for another job, are you as well considering moving on because you lost both a relationship and a job” Evelyn began to tease.“No Evelyn. I am done with love” Rita rolled her eyes.“Done with love? What the heck is that?”“Do not provoke me Evelyn!!” She warned by pointing a finger at her, reminding her of those days she badly wanted me to be in relationship and then Love messed me up.“Fine, at least you need to forgive Finn and get this grudge off your chest” Evelyn urged her.“And then the next minute, my nudes will be flying around the internet.. while his’ not there”“No such thing is gonna happen because Finn took them down already”“What?”“I mea
Tears rolled down Rita’s eyes and she kept on replaying the memories with Zane, comparing it with that of Finn and the fact that they turned out to be the same person was now glaring. Even when she tried to push the thought aside, she just couldn't. Why did Finn play games with her? Did he truly love her? Same Finn was Jared too.She had sent her resignation letter to his email and he had called and called. He had also been here, knocking and knocking on the door but she wouldn't open the door for him.She read their conversation over again on Kikachat and scrolled through the gossip/gist feed, thinking she’ll just bump into some of her nude pictures since Charles had said he would release it soon. While she was at it, the application suddenly began to glitch and malfunction and then, it finally crashed. Kikachat was no more.***“I did it! I did it finally!!” Alex announced, screaming.“You did it?”“Yeah, not only did I wipe the pictures, I took down the application”“Oh My God!”
“Finn is Zane”“What..what did you say? What? How can Zane be Finn? Can you even listen to yourself?” Rita shook her head continuously.“Finn himself will explain to you better”“You mean Charles is the nternet god, the popular founder of Kikachat?” Evelyn asked to confirm.“And Zane Is Finn?” I uttered unbelievably.“Remember I told you Zane and I are buddies at college, I recongised him the first day he stepped into his office. He told me what he was up to and wanted me to play along and that's why I was always concerned about your complicated relationship with Zane and with Finn because they are the same person…” Before Adam finished explaining, Rita stood up and dashed out of the restaurant quickly.****“Charles security is pretty tight” Alexander said as he battled with his laptop while Finn stood impatiently behind him.“Are you sure you don't need my help? I can help you get his laptop, passport, his signature or some of his important documents” Finn said.“No, I don't need an
