"...I'm finished Lizzy."

Lizzy sighed. "Lau you've been saying that for the past three weeks."

It had been three weeks since the painful incident that took place in the hospital and Laura had been acting like a walking dead ever since.

"I understand that it's hard for you but please you have to stop this." Lizzy continued. "Please I need you to eat. You haven't eaten since morning."

"I'm not hungry." Laura replied drily.

Lizzy sighed. "Laura please..."

"I said I'm not hungry!" She snapped.

"Stop acting like a baby!" Lizzy snapped back.

"I am not acting like a baby!"

"But you're being one now, Laura."

Laura shook her head. "You don't know how I feel so you can never understand!"

Lizzy sighed for the umpteenth time. The pregnancy hormones coupled with the Greg issue was taking a toll on her friend.

"Laura," She said gently. "Trust me when I say that I know exactly how you feel. I've been there before, remember?"

Laura stiffened for a second then turned to face her, her expression

    The phase of pregnancy was not an easy one at all and Laura would not hesitate to attest to that but it didn't make her love her precious little one any less. It was the ninth month of her pregnancy and she had been proudly carrying her round tummy albeit mocking words and laughter from Celina and Samantha. The latter had already given birth to a baby boy over a month ago which had caused a frown on Laura and Lizzy. Just how long ago did Greg start sleeping with Samantha? Anyways it wasn't her business. She had her own sunshine to look forward to bringing into her lonely world. Surprisingly, she wasn't so keen on getting Greg back anymore. Especially after the way he had treated her at the hospital. That incident was always a painful reminder and one of the hindrances that marred her decision of getting him back. Even though he had lost his memory, he had no right to treat her the way he had. Besides he was supposed to feel something for her if she truly was special to him before

    Samantha sighed as she looked at her mother who was regarding her thoughtfully. "Mum, it only bothers me that Greg had set the wedding for November which is in six months! Six months mum!" She wailed. Celine frowned. "Anything could happen within six months.""But why would he set the wedding to be held on that date?" Celine asked absently. "He said it was to give us more time to know each other more." Samantha replied in frustration. "We've been getting to know each for the past eight months now mum and now this again. Mum I'm so scared.""Calm down my dear," Celine comforted. "You'll just have to play along and agree to everything he says until you're both married.""But for how long? This is wearing me down." Samantha sighed. "I understand, but he is one big fish we can't afford to lose." She smiled at her daughter. "See the way he has been taking good care of you and even me and your sister, Mirabel. And I'm also happy that that thing left the house. He would have been seeing

    She contemplated turning and slipping off quietly before either of the men could see her. She wasn't quite ready to face Greg. Noiselessly, she turned and started to make her way towards the exit but her boss's, or rather, ex boss's voice stopped her. "Ah, Laura, there you are." She slowly turned and forced a smile. The two other men had already turned to look at her. His dark eyes pierced through her. She gulped but maintained her smile. "Mr Jones...""Come on, come say hello to your new boss." Mr Jones urged and she moved forward, aware of his eyes following every step she took. She glanced at him once and her breath seized. He had changed. But looked much more handsome than before. He had added a slight touch of white hair dye on the right side of his head giving him a smarter, mature and more gorgeous look. And he looked bigger but still lean. The father of her child was indeed drop dead gorgeous. She smiled at her boss as she finally got to them. Her boss was a soft feat

    "Good morning Miss West." Laura closed the door to her car and turned towards the source of the voice and smiled. Levi Williams. "Good morning sir." He grimaced. "I've told you several times to address me as Levi."She smiled. "You know I can't, sir. You're my boss."He groaned and she giggled lightly. He really looked like his elder brother. "How was your night?" He asked with a smile. "Fine thank you." She replied. "How was yours?" "Was okay." He started walking into the office building, motioning to her to come along. "I've been here with you guys for a week and I must commend you all that has been working diligently, you especially. It's not all the time you get to see a very beautiful woman who is very dedicated to her work."A blush tinted her cheeks and she smiled. "Thank you sir. I appreciate your commendation."They were greeted as they walked through. Some of the other workers who were coming in, looking at them both suspiciously especially after he ushered her into hi

    "But have you started working on getting him back?" Lizzy asked as she flopped beside Laura and collected a babbling Cameron from her, placing a loud kiss on his chubby cheek which made him giggle loudly causing a laugh from Lizzy and a grin on his mother's face. The baby was discharged on the evening of the same day he was admitted of which both Laura and Lizzy were thankful for. "No I haven't. Yet." Laura replied to Lizzy's question. "And what are you waiting for?" Lizzy asked. Laura shrugged. "The right time?"Lizzy rolled her eyes. "And when is the right time?" "I don't know.""What do you mean you don't know?"Laura shrugged again. "I just don't." Lizzy face palmed. "I don't even know why I'm killing myself over this."Laura grinned. "Because you love me and want the best for me."Lizzy rolled her eyes. "Yeah right, and you're making things difficult!"Laura sighed. "I'm sorry, it's just that I believe I should take this slowly. I don't just want him to fall in love with me

    Hey babes." Samantha sashayed into the bedroom and flopped down beside Greg who was busy on his laptop and sensually slid her body close to his. He absently hooked one arm around her waist, his attention still on the screen before him. "How about the Minister's daughter's engagement party, babe?" She snuggled closer to him. "Are we still attending?"Greg sighed. "You've asked me this several times Sam."Samantha shrugged. "I just wanted to be sure that you aren't changing your mind. You know it's next month. Just two weeks from now and my dress is almost ready.""The minister personally invited me and I can't get on his bad side and risk not getting contracts from him anymore by not honoring the invitation now can I?"Samantha grinned. "That's why I love you." Greg smiled absently. "Where's Sydney? " He asked. He hadn't seen his little boy since they finished dinner. Samantha shrugged and tried to kiss him. "He's with the nanny."Greg evaded her lips and looked at her sharply. "Yo

    "He kissed me."She said to herself for the umpteenth time.Greg couldn't stop himself from kissing her even though he didn't remember her yet. She smiled. He was definitely still attracted to her.She looked at Cameron who was playing with her hair in her arms and grinned in excitement at the memory of the passionate moment.Even Lizzy had danced around the sitting room after she had informed her when she went to pick Cameron. She had said it was a first step to a successful mission and she was right. If she played her cards well, she might just have her Greg in her arms once again. She couldn't get the images of their makeout out of her head. The familiar sweetness of his lips, the feel of his body against hers had made her realize she had been starved of him and she needed him back in her life.Friday morning got her strutting confidently into the office building with a wide smile on her face. She warmly greeted everyone she came across, keeping the smile fixed on her face. "La

    She had seen them when they walked in. Had felt his presence when he was around.She wasn't surprised he was here, after all he was a public figure and she knew he had been invited.And the bitch was with him. She was the one who was supposed to be by his side and not Samantha. She was the one he should be loving and not Samantha.Well that was going to change. She would make sure of that.She rolled her eyes. She had been saying that for the past few months, yet there was nothing she had achieved when it came to getting her man back. She sighed.What was wrong with her? If she really wanted a future with Greg in it, then she had to fight before it was too late and that's why her plan had to be successful tonight."Enjoying the party?" She smiled at Dexter. "Yes. Very much." He nodded and looked around. "Have you seen my sister this evening?""Yes, she came to the table," with Ronald "to say hi when you went to the bathroom." She said, skipping the Ronald part because she didn't

    She placed her hand on her protruded tummy and smiled as she watched her husband and son, their heads bent in concentration and with cute matching frowns on their foreheads as they went through the book before them. They were so similar, both in appearance and in character. She sighed in contentment.It had been a very blissful three years. Too blissful that she found it terrifying. It all seemed too good to be true at the initial stage but when she thought about everything she had gone through, she realized that she deserved every happiness that came to her. Her husband, her son and the baby in her womb who, she always felt couldn't wait to come into the world and meet it's family.A small cloud of sadness settled on her face as she thought of her step mother, Celina. After the confessions that fateful day, the police had arrived and arrested her and she was charged to court and was found guilty of attempted murder then was sentenced to many years of imprisonment. It had been a lo

    "No way!" Celina boomed pacing up and down the living room."It is what it is, mother."Samantha said tearfully as she sat on the couch with a mug of tea in her hands, legs tucked in. "I will not allow this to happen!""It already has!" Samantha snapped in annoyance. "Greg already knows that Sydney is not his son and asides that, I believe he has regained his memory. It's over mum.""No it's not!" Celina said stubbornly. "This can't be over, not after everything we did to get you to that position.""Mum you don't understand," Samantha said wearily. "I already confessed to Greg that Sydney is not his! And there's no way he's gonna take me back after catching me in bed with that moron!""Well you are as much of a moron as that fool he caught you in his bed with." Celina snapped. "How could you be so stupid and careless? Sleeping with another man in his house, in his bedroom! What kind of stupidity is that?""I wasn't expecting him until in the evening!""And so what you foolish child?

    Laura slid out of his suddenly limp embrace and excused herself, not missing the frown of confusion, curiosity and dread on his face.She went into the bedroom and to Cameron's cot and realized he was only having a bad dream. After calming him down and putting him to sleep again, she returned to the sitting room.He was standing with his back to her staring at a painting. His stance oozed power and sexual appeal and she mentally slapped herself for harboring immoral thoughts."That was a baby, wasn't it?" He asked in a murmur."Yes, obviously." She replied curtly."Whose child is it?" He asked, turning to face her."None of your business." She said nonchalantly.He took a dangerous step towards her. "Laura. Whose. Child. Was that?"She glared at him for seconds then rolled her eyes."Well since you're been insistent, he's my child."Time stood still as he froze at her announcement. Then he vaguely remembered that she did have a son. He had found out when he went through her profile

    She was his.And he'd be damned if he let another man have her.How had things gotten to this? How was he on the verge of losing his one true love? He shook his head as he blamed the accident and loss of his memory for his current predicament.But most importantly. How was he going to win her back?He knew she could be headstrong and determined sometimes but he had to do all he could to get her back. She was the light in his dark world. And without her with him, his life would be empty. He would get her, his angel back.That aside for the meantime though. Right now he had to focus on getting that Samantha West out of his house and his life for good, he thought as he turned his car into his street.When he returned home the previous evening and met her, his subconscious telling him that the woman had been living with him for months in the name of being his fiancee, he was somewhat shocked and at the same time believed that it was true.But what he found difficult to accept was the c

    Laura looked at Dexter with a small loving smile as he waited for an answer, though her mind was muddled and her heart was beating erratically. She sighed.She was tired. Tired of fighting for a lost cause. Who was she deceiving? Greg was lost to her forever. She could never get him back. She didn't even know whether she still wanted him after everything he had done to her. She had been patient. For over a year she had been hoping he would one day come to remember her for who she really was and what she had once meant to him. But all proved abortive and the worst of it all was the sack letter she had received from him after a night of intense lovemaking and worse still, the second dreaded letter that tore at her heart whenever she thought of it.The accident had reborn him into a beast.Anger at him beclouded her heart and she discovered there was no soft spot for him in her heart any longer.He was her son's father, yes. But that was all he would ever be to her.And he would never k

    With an enthusiastic heart, Laura walked into the office building, a huge and radiant smile on her face on Monday morning.She had a reason to be happy, very much so. And the thought of that reason widened the smile on her face.Edna bumped into her when she rounded a corner and gave a wide happy grin of hers."Laura!""Hey Edna, good morning!" "Good morning Laura, you look quite happy this morning."Laura grinned. "That's because I am happy. And you, you look quite radiant and excited this morning. What's up?"Edna smiled dreamily. "Oh Laura, you won't believe this! Guess what?""Oh come on Ed don't keep me in suspense, just spill!"Laura said excitedly."Levi asked me to be his girlfriend, last night."Laura's eyes widened in excitement. "Omg! Girl, are you serious?" "I can't even believe it myself." Edna replied."Oh Edna, I'm so happy for you!" Laura grinned embracing her."Thanks Laura, I'm happy for me too." She smiled widely.

    As early as five in the morning, he woke up. He blinked his eyes as he tried to get them adjusted to the little light coming in from the moon through the window. Then he felt softness pressed warmly against him and he looked down to behold her calm sleeping glorious face illuminated by the morning moonlight and everything that had happened the previous night and the early hours of the morning came rushing into his head.They had had sex. No. The better word was, they had made love. He had tried to take it as just casual sex during the deed, but the wave of emotions and passion that flowed between them was so intense that it couldn't be described as just casual sex. If felt so natural. So right. He didn't feel guilty which made him wonder why. No matter how hard he forced himself to feel guilty, something kept telling him that he hadn't done anything wrong.He looked at her again. She was so beautiful. And he wasn't just talking about her face.The sex had been earth shattering and h

    Greg didn't know how Laura West managed to convince him to wait in her house before his mechanic comes to fix his car. He couldn't even find any issue with the car and it had been a long time since that particular car had had any issue.He had called the vehicle tech but the bastard had told him that he was out of town at the meantime but would be with him in the next one hour thirty minutes. One hour thirty minutes! Alone with this woman in a house! He considered getting a taxi and sending someone to come get his car tomorrow but why the hell wasn't he getting that taxi?A slender hand with a glass of water appeared in his vision and he blinked remembering that he had asked for the water."Thanks." He said as he collected the glass from her, making sure to avoid any contact with her. He didn't want want to take any risk."You're welcome Mr Williams." She replied slowly and sensually.God help him tonight.***Laura couldn't help the wide grin on her face as she went into the kitch
