"Can I see you tomorrow, Kevin spoke after he had pulled up just before Bella's house," Kevin would have wanted to go in but he didn't want to scare her at the moment compared that they have just met for the first time after all the five years that they were separated. Bella wanted to reject Kevin but seeing his begging eyes and face fgat stared at her she could not bring herself to reject him so she just nodded in affirmation half-heartedly. Bella was surprised when just as she was about to alight from the car to have found that Kevin was already holding the door open for her, she hadn't noticed when Kevin had alighted from the driver's seat and was already outside, so after whispering a small thank you Bella finally alighted and stood before him awkwardly, she was not sure how she was supposed to behave before Kevin , unlike before when they were married and could act just natural with each other but now things were different between them, they were neither married nor divorced, t
When Bella entered the house with a blush on her face everyone in the house looked at her weirdly moreso got Jake who had been waiting for her, he so much wanted to hear what had transpired between her and Kevin,he was so eager to see if their update so far whether she would be going back to him any soon, but all in no matter what decision Bella would take he would be willing to support her as a good brother and guardian, he was worth of the title guardian because he had been watching her for long time already. Jake was smart enough because he had known that Bella would not talk to him in the presence of the kids so he had already prepared the kids to bed after he had made them food, and because Jake could not just shut his mouth on such a crucial matter, he had already informed Jade of everything that had transpired and how things had gone to the extent of Bella meeting up with Kevin.Initially Jade had thought of him as a betrayer but when he had thought if how he too had seen Bell
Sharon, Akira, Alex and Steve, Sharon's boyfriend were seated on the table excited to meet Alex's new boyfriend, initially they had come to here to celebrate that Alex was no longer single and just him getting someone was already worth celebration, at least he is no longer the innocent virgin friend that they thought they would have forever, but as they were seated on the table, they could clearly see how Alex was concentrating on his phone, and just before they could ask Alex what exactly he was up to, the trio saw a sheepish smile plastered on Alex's face, the same smile that one always has whenever they are in love and this made them just more curious to know whoever the person that Alex was texting with was.It was not long before their curiosity was satisfied, as Alex explained to them his alleged boyfriend had promised to come over and spent a night with them and had requested to have a seat placed for three as he would be accompanied by two more people, his brother and sister.
"How exactly do you know my brother?" Bella asked once again as she stared at Alex with her squinting eyes, it was as if she could directly see through his soul that he didn't even think about lying because if he were also found out to have lied then maybe there is really no future for him.When Bella thought that she was not going to get an answer from Alex any soon she resought to Jade and turned towards him as of asking him to explain what exactly was happening, she was too impatient to wait for Alex and she was sure there is no way in this world would Jade lie to him."He is the guy I told you about." "He is the guy I told you about."Both Jade and Alex spoke simultaneously, Jade was more like speaking to Bella and Jake while on the other hand Alex was more like talking to Sharon, Akira and Steve."What!" What, are you for real? "This would be the only thing that could come out of Sharon and Bella's mouth, as for the guys they were more composed despite them being surprised too
With the way that Kevin had stick to Bella, she knew she had no way out, si Bella continued to hold drunk Kevin but after sometimes she led him to have a seat just at her table, at the moment everyone had already vacated the table and it was unoccupied."Kevin, can you see me," Bella spoke softly waving her hand just before Kevin's face to check whether he was still conscious, even though Bella really doubted him that he was drunk she still tended to him with care. When Bella saw that Kevin was so drunk to even walk by himself she looked around to check she could find his friends or maybe Ronnie so that he would take him home but when she found none she sat there thinking of a plan b, but all in all she could not think of leaving him here, that was least of what she could do because she was worried what if something were to happen to him then she would never forgive herself then.Bella called Jake and informed him that she was going to take Kevin home so that he would not be worried
Bella realized that there was really no such a big change in this house ever since she left five years ago, everything was basically the same except go a few furniture decorations, that was the only thing that Kevin had had changed, and maybe the colour of the wall because it seemed like the house had just been furnished. Bella after thinking that maybe the coach would be a little comfortable for Kevin she resorted to take him upstairs to his room, and it was only after she had three him on the bed did Bella finally breathed a sigh of relief, Kevin was so heavy that just dragging him had taken a toil on her. Bella assisted Kevin to remove his belt and shirt, she wanted to help him with the trousers too but after giving it a thought Bella thought it a good idea not to after all they are no longer married so Bella thought it better to respect privacy. Bella pushed Kevin to sleep in a better posture before she turned around and just before she could take a step ahead she felt a touch
Kevin had something else in mind when Bella had said to him that she wanted to go home, Kevin was not very willing to part with him, and it is so surprising that Kevin was not even thinking about going to work, he was feeling like just lazing around with Bella by his side and if in the case he would feel like going to work then he would only do that if and only Bella would agree to accompany him but otherwise he was willing to accompany her on his own even if Bella herself would not want his company.So when Kevin had drive Bella home and just after she had alighted from the car Kevin too rise from his seat and entered the compound leaving Bella standing at the gate staring at him but he didn't mind her hawks eyes that followed him even when he entered the leaving room and welcomed himself in.Kevin could clearly see that this house was furnished just like there one house that he had gifted Bella just after the wedding, the purple colour on the walk made the place to be more livelier
Kevin arrived at the airport, he was feeling tired but deep down in his mind he knew he had to push on if and only if he really wanted to have his family back, there was only one way out, even if it is the hard way he had to push.Kevin was not sure how he would be welcomed in the family, but all in all he had made up his mind moreso when he could remember the good time that he had spent with his children the previous day this was such a push for me to try more and have them back at all cost.The previous day Kevin had had a good time playing around with his kids in the living room that by the time it was dinner time they had disarranged the whole living room, the pillows were thrown everywhere around the house, Kevin could clearly remember the look on Bella's face when she came in, she was very angry with the three of them and just the eyes that she had given him was enough to make him shudder in fear, and to avoid maintaining eye contact with her Kevin had resorted to cast his eyes
It was already two months since Bella and Kevin were finally given a go ahead from Bella's parents, and yet here they were already standing at the alter facing each other. Bella had tears on her eyes, just remembering everything that had happened to her she felt like all that had happened was just a dream, it was just like yesterday when she had met Kevin coincidentally, and yet here they are, already got two kids by their side who were watching them, Memories flooded Bella's mind, fragments of a past she had struggled with. Faces flashed before her eyes, voices echoing in the recesses of her consciousness, the journey indeed was quite a long one, with both happy and sad memories. Yet, as the darkness crept over Bella knew she could not turn back. She had come too far, sacrificed too much to let fear dictate her fate. With a heavy heart, she took a step forward towards Kevin, who was looking all handsome in a three-piece tuxedo, his eyes never leaving her, appreciating her beauty. S
The whole day Bella refused it eat that it really worried her parents, they really regretted having done this trick on Bella because her reaction on it was much worse than how they had thought she would take it. Earlier on Elizabeth and Frank had agree to themselves that they would attenuate a certain drug which has similar characteristics as peanut allergy,after all Frank himself was the doctor and he had control over everything,the drug was supposed to induce Kevin to semi comma, and the only thing that they would come up with to tell Bella was that it was peanut, they kind of knew how vigorous Kevin's reaction to peanut would be, and they didn't want to risk it on him, they wanted him safe for Bella. Elizabeth and Frank didn't have much to do for the day, and just immediately after dinner they left for their bedroom as Bella had refused to go downstairs to take her meals so they left her be.Bella took a seat and placed it at the bedside yet before the bed where Kevin slept, all
Bella was surprised when she found her father on the living room, seated as if he was waiting for her, and it was at that moment that Bella knew that she had f**cked up, obviously she knew that her father was already aware that she had sneaked out of the house to go and spend a night with Kevin, and thinking that maybe her father would snap at her,so Bella had already designed a plan to herself that would make her father give in to her, so Bella pretended to not have seen him at all as she walked to the stairs."Bella stop it,stop right now!" Frank had spoke up just as Bella took the first step on the staircase, it's not like he didn't know of what she was up to, and after being found out, Bella took slow steps backwards making sure she didn't turn around to face him at all, she was afraid to face him in case he was so angry with her, that was the only thing that Bella was afraid, seeing her father being angry with her.Bella walked until she stopped just before her father, but she di
It was around five o'clock in the morning when Bella woke up, she was still being held tightly by Kevin, she knew it was time that she should wake up before her father would come over to wake Kevin up, Bella knew that if that was to happen then she would be in a lot of trouble.Bella tried to loosen Kevin's hand from her waist, he was holding it possessively like he was not going to let her go, and Bella liked it so much, she has always liked it whenever he would hold her that possessive, it just showed her how much he loved her and craved for her. Kevin was fast asleep, and it just dawned on Bella that she was supposed to be on the move back to the main mansion, otherwise if she were to waste a single moment still sleeping here her mother could find her and she knew better than anyone what would happen next in such a situation.Bella was feeling hesitant to go, and finally when she had stepped from the bed she thought of something before she came back near the bed and leaned in to K
It was around eleven o'clock in the night, everywhere was so silent and dark, and there was only one soul that was still awake at the time, she was turning and tossing around the bed as she was not sure whether her parents were asleep yet or not, but she was afraid to switch the lights on, what if she were to be found out, she didn't want her parents to know of her plans, or anything that she was up to, everything was supposed to be secretive so that she could execute her plans.Bella slowly woke from her bed, put on her sleepers and slowly walked out of her bedroom making sure she was as silent as possible. When Bella reached the stairs and thinking that maybe she would be found out, she bend down, removed her slippers and carried them as she sneaked out, passed through the living room before she out them back on and headed to the workers quarter at the farthest end of the compound, she was making sure she does not make any noise in case she were to alert her father.Bella was very
"Mom, why haven't I seen Kevin in his room, has he already left ,"Bella walked to her mother feeling disappointed when she had gone to Kevin's room but she hadn't found him at all, and she wondered whether he had already left, at some point she was feeling disappointed thinking that as she had thought that Kevin had come for her yet he had just left without her, after all it was still very early in the morning for him to have left for any where.Elizabeth had a creepy smile at the corners of her lips, but she hid it before Bella could see, after all after her discussion with her husband last night they wanted to trick Bella onto her realizing her feelings soonest possible because they too felt bothered thinking if her bringing up her children as a single mother when her husband was still alive, they were afraid that their grandchildren would be brought up the same way they had brought up their children. "Ooh, sorry I forgot to inform you that Kevin accompanied your dad to the farm ve
Only after Bella had gone to bed did the table become cheerful once more, she had bid her parents and Kevin a good night before she had gone to bed, and it was then as Kevin watched Bella's disappearing silhouette did Kevin decided that maybe it was time that he should talk to his father-in-law about what he was here for, after all ever since he came to this house there was never a time that Kevin had gotten such a chance to speak with his in-laws.Immediately after dinner nobody left the dining table, even though Frank was so tired but he knew if he would go to bed without listening to Kevin then he would be doing him fair and that is why he too didn't leave and only cast Kevin a curious glance as if asking him to go on with whatever it is that he had in his mind.I know I don't deserve to be given this chance to speak with you after everything that happened back then a few tears ago, I know I was so selfish but the reason as to why I came here is because I want to make everything st
"Ooh my sweet daughter, you are here, I have missed so much, when did you arrive,and where are my grandchildren ,did you bring them with you Frank, Bella's father spoke as he walked in to the silent room as Bella rose from her seat and ran to him hugging him tightly, she too had missed her father so much, in the five or six years that they have been together her father has always shown her all the affection in the world that she has ever yearned for, after all just after she had woken up from the comma he was always by her side taking care of her and he had told Bella that he was willing to make for all the nineteen years that he was out of her life.There were moment that both Jade and Jake would always complain about how they were not given any attention at all by their father but all this while Frank would always dismiss them and told them that they were men and they had to take care of themselves on their own unlike ladies whom he thought of as either the princess and the queen, a
Bella didn't have the courage to tell her mother what had transpired between her and Kevin but she had a lot of questions in mind to ask her, what exactly was Kevin doing here in her house in the first place, wasn't he supposed to be on a business trip as he had said to her almost a week ago when they had shared their dinner and he had promised to be back soon immediately after the meeting would be over, but she knew only Kevin himself was supposed to answer all that questions after all her mother was not there when they were talking about this.But Bella asked her mother this one question, while there were very many guest rooms in the family why in the works would Kevin be doing in her room instead of being in another room after all he was a guest, it it seemed like her mother had really forgotten that she didn't like it when someone enters her room without her permission whether she is around or not, but even though she feigned anger only Bella knew deep down that she was angry with
