Erica was about to leave work one evening when she saw someone standing beside her car.
She had mixed feelings and rolled her eyes in disgust.
He was the last person she wanted to see.
Yes she has forgiven him but she didn't want to have anything to do with him and so she made sure to deny him rights to having access to her child.
"Oliver what are you doing here?" She yelled walking closer to him.
He smiled on seeing her and tried to touch her hand.
"What? Why do you want to ruin my life completely?" Erica screamed.
Oliver was surprised, he didn't expect such reaction from her.
He swallowed hair scratching his hair.
"Erica I thought you have forgiven me" he said.
"Of course I have, is that what gave you the right to keep following me around town?" She asked.
He shook his head and waved his hands at the same time.
"Erica, don't say that, I haven't been following you around town" he said in a kind tone
Erica got home and for hours she haven't been herself.She kept thinking and it was draining her.Andrew received a call from Oliver and hour ago who complained about what happened between himself and Erica earlier that evening.He walked into the livingroom and met her sitting on the couch with her hand placed under her chin.He cleared his throat.Erica was startled, she looked up and adjusted.He took a deep sigh sitting opposite her.The sky was dark and the weather was cold since it had rained earlier."Erica you look troubled? What is it?" He asked.She shurgged "Dad I am fine.""I thought you forgave Oliver already" he began.He gaped "Dad don't tell me he called you to report me.""Erica can't you let the past remain in the past? He isn't asking to hair custody of the baby but to have access to him, you really can't blame him for what happened before."Erica looked furious "Dad,
Joan stood up sluggishly, she was about being led back to her cell by a female warder when she heard a familiar voice call her name.She turned around and gasped at the sight of Erica.Her eyes flapped nonstop, she felt humiliated by Erica's presence.Erica grinned from chin to chin."I am family, I wish to see her too" Erica said to the warder who led Joan back to her seat.Erica sat comfortably opposite her folding her hands in front of her.Her nails were quite shinny, it was painted red."What are you doing here?" Joan asked rudely.The possibility of Erica seeing Eli was ninety-nine percent and she needed to know what exactly was going through Erica's mind."I came to see you Joan, to see my lovely sister who has become a horrible victim of circumstance" Erica smiled.Joan's head shook slowly."I am not your sister and pleaseI don't need your disgustings sympathy" she gritted her teeth in anger.Erica scoffed ignoring
"Erica you are taking this too far! You really are and I don't like it!" Andrew yelled."Dad I decide what happens in my son's life, not you or anyone else, first I am so disappointed that you would allow that man come close to my son after all I told you" Erica cried out."Gush! Erica what has come over you? Zoe is his son aswell" he said."Then I am his mother, Oliver is not and can never be the father of my son, if he wants a child so much he should go ahead and adopt one and stop making life miserable for himself" Erica said."Erica, this isn't you, you need to calm down and allow the past remain in the past" Andrew said.She turned to him "of course dad, that is what I am trying to do, to let the past remain in the past but good for nothing Oliver wouldn't let me be! If he wants to sue me to court, then fine and it's very much better cause I am sick and tired of him pestering my life."Andrew bowed his head for a while and lifted it."Erica yo
It was a beautiful evening in Andrew's house, it was Erica's birthday.The held a mini get together party and invited few of their closet friends.Erica barely had friends anymore and wished she could gather back the strength to make more."If only God grants wishes like mine, it would be to have Sarah come back to life" Erica always said.Her mood got deeply poisoned the moment Oliver walked in with Eli.Her face changed into a deep frown, her little dance couldn't continue, she moved to a corner and sat quietly.Andrew noticed what was going on, he went to her."Erica what is it? Why are you looking this way?" He asked."You invited Oliver didn't you?" She asked looking totally pissed off.He scoffed "he called few days to your birthday, he knew it was your birthday and wanted to be part of it."She rolled her eyes "I don't want him to be part of it dad, I don't need him anywhere close to my life."Andrew
Erica gaped, she took a glance behind and noticed that almost everyone was standing behind her.She was bewildered and amazed at the same time.The car was so beautiful that it made her love it even more with every second that swept by.She took a deep breath rubbing her hands over her eyes.Eli, Oliver and everyone else burst into laughter on seeing her reaction."Come on Erica, you aren't dreaming, this is reality" Oliver said smiling.Erica felt super happy but she wondered if she should accept it or not since it was coming from Oliver, her baby's daddy.She looked up at his face swallowing hard.Erica could feel hot sweats dripping from the back of her ear down to her neck.Her face and hands were gradually getting soaked with sweat.She rubbed her hands on her dress feeling very nervous.Erica's gaze caught that of her father who gave her a short nod urging her to accept the gift from him.She s
Erica woke up the next morning feel pretty lazy.Her whole body ached, she turned to the other side of the bed taking a deep breath.She opened her eyes, she could clearly see the sun rays shining happily into her room.Erica smiled.She could hear her son's giggles from and wondered what time it was.She sat up on the bed stretching her hands and legs.Erica tried to stand but then she felt really dizzy.She remained sitted for a while before finally standing.Erica walked sluggishly out of her room rubbing her hands over her face.She gasped when she saw the nanny playing with her son."Good morning Erica" the nanny greeted."Good morning nanny, what time is it?" She asked looking confused."10:00am" the nanny answered.Her eyes grew wide "what the fuck? Did I really sleep that long?"The nanny smiled "you really did...""Gush!" She exclaimed hitting her hand on her forehead.
Erica couldn't help but feel uneasy about Linda."Was she that close to Joan?" Erica asked.Oliver had some food in his mouth and was almost choking.He grabbed the bottle of wine to pour in some wine into his glass cup.Erica noticed what was going on with him.He stopped him at once "Hey let me help."She took the bottle of wine from him and poured it into his glass cup.Oliver gulped down the wine and belched slightly."Sorry about that..." he said taking taking glance at Erica, he felt a little embarrassed.She chortled "it's fine."Silence enveloped them for a while before Oliver broke it on remembering Erica's question."Actually I don't think Linda was that closer to Joan, they met when we were preparing for the wedding and just like you know, Joan has no friends so she asked Linda to be her bride's maid" Oliver explained.Erica nodded slightly "Oh.. so that's actually what happened."
A knock came at the door.Oliver could swear that he felt hot sweats on his armpits.He jerked up from where he sat and ran into his bed room.He sprayed some more perfume on his body and tried to perceive the scent from his mouth."Yeah.. I smell nice now" he adjusted his clothes and left the bedroom heading to the livingroom.He pulled the door open and gasped at the sight of Erica.She looked seductively beautiful in her blue shimmering dress and white heels.He swallowed hard feeding his eyes with her revealing curves."Hello Oliver" she greeted giving him a wink.He laughed softly "hey..""Won't you allow me in?" She asked."Oh... sure, pardon my bad manners" he said making way for her to walk in.She nodded grinning as she walked into the living room holding firmly to her white purse.Erica walked over to the couch and sat quietly "You really changed some furnitures."Oliver nodde
Linda waited in her car in front of the mall, through her side mirror she saw Oliver park his car behind hers.She waited patiently taking a deep breath.Oliver walked up to her car and got in."I am here..." he turned to her.She smiled trying to kiss him."Stop it Linda, why did you call me out here?" Oliver asked.She sighed "can't you be a little romantic with your side chick?" She glared at him."For the records, I have no side chick, for the last time, why am I here" he asked.She scoffed "open the dashboard in front of you."Oliver took a glance at her and opened it "now what?""Aren't you seeing something inside of it?" She arched her brow."An envelope?" He looked a little confused."Take the envelope" she instructed.Oliver turned to her "What's in it?""Just do what I said and stop asking silly questions" Linda yelled.He quickly took out the envelope."Open it!
Linda found her phone lying carelessly on her bed and picked it up."I am still waiting here bitch!" Joan yelled from the living room.Linda walked back to the livingroom with her phone and quickly called Oliver, her hands were shaking."How did you know I was back into the state?" Oliver asked."With the news of Joan out of prison, you are bound to return with your wife" she gave Joan a heavy glare who had a cruel smirk at the end of her lips.She hanged up asking Oliver to meet her in front of the mall later that evening which he found quite odd."Good girl, isn't it so simple?" Joan raised her brows."Can you leave mu house now?" Linda asked.Joan stood up "of course I would leave but make sure you don't forget that my eyes are everywhere" she picked up her base ball and placed it on her head, she went straight to the door, unlocked it and walked out of the house through it.Linda scoffed falling on her knees "I can't
Linda was playing a loud hip pop music in her room while she smoked nonstop, she was a smoke addict and found it difficult to do anything without smoking a cigarette.She had just putted off the cigarette and walked into the bathroom naked to have a quick shower when someone knocked.Linda didn't hear or notice the knock since the music was very loud and the radio was definitely very close to the bathroom.Linda sang along, dancing in the bathroom and spent quite a while in there enjoying the warmth of the water.She lit on another stick of cigarette walking out of the bathroom, she kept puffing the smoke into the air.Suddenly she heard a noise in her livingroom, she quickly grabbed her radio and turned down the volume paying attention to her environment to be sure she heard clearly.Then she heard the same noise in the livingroom again."Who is there?" She heed behind her door waiting for a response but no one said a thing.She became suspicious "I am sure
A week later...Erica, Oliver, her son and the nanny flew out of the states to Paris where they spent three weeks having fun and visiting lots of exciting places.They had planned to stay for two months but they couldn't stay longer after the night Erica received a frightening call from her father.They had just finished having vanilla gelato at the ice-cream store and got back to their various rooms when Andrew called.Erica was always excited when ever her father calls, she always loved sharing her experiences for the day with him.Andrew also did well calling always to check on the couple but this evening his voice didn't sound as cheerful as always, it sounded a little squeaky "are you okay dad?" She asked."Yeah... sure Erica, I just called to check up on you, how is my grandson doing?" He asked."He is with his nanny, he is doing alright" she answered."Mmhm... that's good, what about your husband?" He asked clearing his
The wedding day was a blast.One of the most expensive weddings ever celebrated so far.Of course the church auditorium was crowded with dignitaries who have come to celebrate with the couple.Erica was dressed in a strapless pearl ball gown, and a bridal illusion veil comfortably sitted on her head.She had this silver little crown on he head which made her look like a real princess.She had a esclavage sitting comfortably around her neck with dangling earnings.On her legs she wore a pair of silver ankle strap heels.Erica was the most beautiful woman in the church that morning, all eyes were focused on her.Linda stood beside behind her while she took the vows standing in front of Oliver who was elegantly dressed in his white suit and so was Eli."To love and to cherish, till death do us part" Erica said wearing a precious smile.They exchanged rings, it was quite and emotional scenario, both couples would spen
Few minutes later...The director of the company called a meeting for all staffs and mentioned that some serious amount of money was missing from the account.One of the staffs cleared his throat raising his hand "excuse me sir but if money should be missing, the accountant and financial secretary should be held responsible, they should trace it all."The director nodded turning to the financial secretary and accountant who looked totally confused."I don't understand why money was continually withdrawn and stolen from thsi company under your very nose and you can't give a reasonable explanation" the director said.He had previously called both men who have served as the accountant and financial secretary to the company for several years into his office and asked them.The money was worth in millions of dollars and it wasn't withdrawn once.At first the director had refused to make it public though so high ranked staff members were aw
Erica have been writing a particular book for years now, it was more like a biography.She had been sitting all night in front of her laptop typing, she needed the book to be ready a week after her wedding and yes her wedding date have been fixed, it was just a month away and lots of preparations were going on already.Erica stretched standing up from the chair, her eyes met her wall clock and she scoffed in despair, she doubted if she would be able to sleep.It was 7:00am and bundles of sun rays were already making way through her slightly open window, she yawned stretching again while she lay up on her bed facing the ceiling, she shut her eyes forcing a self to sleep for few minutes but her efforts were futile especially because of her phone which started blaring nonstop.She forced herself up on her feet and grabbed the phone."Linda! I just wanted to get a little sleep" she cried out feeling so disappointed on picking the call.Lin
"Hey Erica, you have got to go pick some groceries, we are out of food" she heard her father yell from the living room dragging her out of her miserable thoughts.That was a good one and a nice escape from her mood, it was soon going to drown her after all."Coming..." she answered dragging her short gown down, she hurried out of thevroom afterwards to go see her father.It's Zoe's birthday...The living room was decorated with blue, white and golden colors, their were balloons every where and a smooth music to bring life to the occasion.The little boy was already walking but Erica still preferred that the nanny carried him into her arms while the party went on.Lots of family friends attended, their was enough to eat and drink.In few minutes, Zoe cut his birthday cake and lots of gifts were presented to him."I didn't see your gift for Zoe" Erica said while she danced in the arms of Oliver.He giggled "don't worry abo
Saturday had just began and it was noon in few hours.It was a visiting period in prison...The visiting room was already getting crowded with people who have come to visit the inmates who were their family members.Joan barely had visitors but today she had one waiting for in the room.She walked straight into the room and sat down opposite her visitor, she had her hair properly packed in pony tail, they looked a little messed up and so did her face, she smiled adjusting on the seat "Hey.. how is it going?"Linda smirked "very well Joan, doing it all just like you asked me to, why do you have so many bruises on your face today?" She asked out of curiosity.Joan nodded "I trust you, have they fixed the wedding date yet?""You didn't answer my wuestin" Linda interrupted.Joan sighed "I'm trying to survive over here Linda, bruises and wounds are normal to me anyways."Linda gasped "that's really crazy, do you really
