It's been weeks and things were still the same way as it was. Isis was still searching for jobs here and there. In fact, she had almost exhausted all the money she had with her due to her search for a job. It was already so tiring and she was alreafy on the verge of giving up. As usual, she went in search for a job in a small company, since she assumed that being a small company, Omarion wouldn't know about them, or be able to trce her there. And when she was told to come for the final stage, she was overjoyed. She was almost sure that she had gotten the job.But unfortunately for her, on getting there, the CEO of the company informed Isis that a bigger authority had instructed him not to hire her even if she was that good and if she was the best person for the job. Isis already knew who it was without anyone calling his name, so she left there without even arguing with the man a bit.Isis went back home frustrated. She knew that her chances of getting a job in Europe was slim especi
James arrives right in time to pick Isis later in the evening, and they left for the club. While they were on their way there, she looked unsettled and a bit worried, and even though James was driving, he couldn't help but notice how uncomfortable she was. When he couldn't mind his business any longer, he decided to ask her."Are you okay?" He asked as he looked at her for a split seconds before turning to face the road again."Yeah," she said, dialing a number on her phone. For the umpteenth time that evening, the call directed her to voice mail, and she let out a heavy sigh. "Where the heck is she?" She muttered to herself."Are you sure you're good? Who are you calling countless times like that?" He asked her with raised eyebrows, curious about who she was calling that made her so worried like that. "You've been dialing that number since we left your place, and you've been worried ever since."Before he started to think of anything else, she quickly responded. "It's Pheonix. She ha
Isis watched James leave in anger. Though still tipsy, she was more sober than before, now and she could tell what she was doing. Despite the insults James rained on her, as soon as James stepped out of the hotel room, she ran after him. He was almost at the elevator when she ran to meet him.Holding the hem of his shirt at the back and panting heavily, she spoke. "Babe, wait, please."James stopped on his tracks but didn't turn to look at her. His back to her, he replied. "Yes? What do you want? Are you ready now?" He questioned her.Isis, still panting heavily, acted like she didn't hear his question. Instead, she began to beg him over what he had said in the room before storming out. Anyone could say that he only said it out of anger, but she knew him too well, and she could tell when he meant something or not.Since he said it already, the fear of him going to meet another woman to get what he wanted made her scared. She didn't want to lose him, not now, not anytime soon."I… I'm
"Thank goodness she's back," she muttered to herself as she walked into the house and closed the door behind her. Just as she turned around and saw Pheonix on a sofa, and the television was on, she began to query her. "So, tell me where you've been since that you…" Her voice trailed off as she m9ved closer to her and was shocked to see that she was shedding tears. Pheonix was crying bitterly. Instantly, Isis dropped her bag on the floor and rushed to meet her. She pulled her into a hug and let her cry in her arms. "What's going on, baby?" She asked her as she patted her and pulled her closer to her, with concern and worry laced on her face, while Pheonix kept on crying.Isis stopped questioning her and waited for her to finish crying, so she simply sat there in silence and patted her back till she was done crying. After a while and she had stop sniffing her nose, Isis decided to ask her what the problem was once again."Are you okay?""Obviously not," Pheonix replied and scoffed, her
Not quite long after, Pheonix finished dressing up and left for the club to search for the father of her baby. A soon as she left, Isis, bored out and not knowing what to do, remembered how her day ended withe James storming out of the hotel room. As her mind went to their makeout session, she let out a sigh."I want it too though," she muttered to herself, then rubbed her forehead. "I'm just scared of the pain, and of course, I don't wanna sin. Premarital sex is a sin, yeah?" She asked aloud as if she was talking to someone. She let out another sigh and laid on the couch. "I'll keep telling myself that till I believe it," she muttered as she stared at the ceiling.About a few minutes later, the thought of ending the argument with James came to her mind. She let out a sigh and sat up on the couch. She picked up her bag and brought out her phone from it. Immediately, she dialed his number. She continued calling him, but he didn't pick up her calls, yet it was ringing. After trying to c
"It wasn't James I had sex with," Isis blurted out."Wait, what? Really?" Pheonix asked, obviously shocked. She was aware that Isis had no other man, so it made her wonder who she could have been fantasizing that much about. "Who was it?""Uhm, my boss," she said, but Pheonix looked at confusedly, since she knew she didn't have a job."Which? You've had quite a few, you know?""The one that fired me." She muttered, knowing fully well how her friend would react.Pheonix's eyes opened wide in shock as soon as the realization hit her. "Oh my God! You fantasized fucking your hot boss you told me about??!""Gosh, Pheonix!" Isis shouted and nudged her to reduce her voice. "Lower your voice, okay? Someone could hear us!"Phoenix scoffed and smirked at her. "Really, Isis, really? We're the only ones in here, you do know that, yeah?" She raised an eyebrow at her."Whatever, Phoenix," she rolled her eyes and looked away. A slight blush appeared on her cheeks as she thought about Omarion and all
After much persuasion from Pheonix, Isis followed her advice and decided to find a job at a club in an lowlife hotel in the area. Apparently, Omarion doesn't deal with low-lofe hotels like that, so when she got there, they knew nothing and just accepted her for the job, to resume immediately. Gladly, she did."That one," the customer, who looked like he was in his early thirties said to Isis, as he pointed at a wine glass on the cabinet behind her. He was dressed in a red suit and he carried a black suitcase. He probably had a long day at work with the way he yawned almost every minute. "The one with the red cover.""Oh," Isis said and turned her back to look at the one the customer had just requested for. She covered her mouth with the back of her right palm as she yawned slightly. Maybe it was the customer's yawn that was contagious, or maybe she was also as tired as the man, she could not tell which, but she knew it was more of the latter. Her baggy eyes and the tiny dark circles a
Isis woke up to see herself in the hospital. She was on a hospital bed in a ward of an hospital she knew not. Immediately she figured out where she was, she bounced up from the bed."What am I doing here?" She muttered to herself as she looked around. She tried to sit up but she felt a sharp pain on her left arm. "Ugh," she groaned as she touched the part it hurt with her right hand. It was a covered with a bandage and a drip was connected to the same hand. "The heck?" She asked herself as she tried to think of the last thing she remembered doing before she found herself where she was.The door to her hospital room opened and a man in brown suit walked in, together with a lady, who was obviously the doctor with the white lab coat she had on the usual doctor's uniform. The man heaved a sigh of relief as he and the lady walked up to her bed. The doctor had a stethoscope around her neck.As soon as they got to her bed, the doctor sat on the edge of the bed. "You're up," she said to Isis
Epilogue Inside the crowded airport some passengers could be seen trying to get to their boarding gate, some exiting the boarding gate while some passengers were seated waiting for the flight to take off. "Flight going to country K has been canceled due to….." the airport was heard broadcasting and a different complaint was seen flying around as the people were trying to show their displeasure to the situation but amid the situation a figure was seen dressed all black as he made his way through the crowd as he tries to cover his face with his face cap. The figure was no one other than James, he was currently making his way out of the country after being filled with the news of Lizeth and her accomplice, Rachel was arrested. He does not want to be a scapegoat or even get arrested by breathing just fine by Omarion. He knew that the man might not have his time now but that does not mean that there was not going to be a change of mind and he would later come for his head. He
Omarion also turned to see Phoenix but he noticed that Isis went stiff at the sight of Phoenix andhe wondered if the girl was alright. "Babe, are you okay?" Omarion asked, looking at Isis andthat question jolted Isis out of her reverie."I am fine," Isis assures Omarion with a tight smile and she faces Phoenix, who was looking atthe two with an awkward smile.Isis does not feel alright looking at Phoenix even though she was telling herself that she wasalright she could see that the sight of the girl makes her feel awkward.They were once best of friends but right then she wanted to bolt out of the club seeing Phoenix.How fast the night changes?"Can we talk?" Phoenix asked, screaming on the top of her lungs and Isis shook her head notwanting to talk with the girl. She held Omarion's by the arm telling him that she wanted to leavethe place and Phoenix panicked seeing that.She started pleading with Isis that she needed to talk with her and also asked for forgiveness.
Omarion and Isis went to Isis's parent's place together and Isis's parrebt welcomed themwholeheartedly. They were beaming with smiles seeing the two young couples in their home."It's really nice seeing you," Isis's mother complimented her daughter and Isis smiled knowingthat was not her words when she came to the house the other time.The day she was disowned and sent out to the street to fend for herself. Even though shedoesn't have any grudge against her parents, that does not mean that she forgot about whatthey did to her. She was still overwhelmed by the memories.Isis's parents started apologizing to Isis after she settled in and they told her their grievancesabout the issue and how the Media influenced the situation more, making them act rashly."We are really so sorry for how we treated you the other time we do not know that you guys…,"Isis's father was saying but he stopped when he saw his wife's glare telling him to not go intodetails and just apologized to
Rachel already was panicking after seeing the news. She was praying that she did not get intotrouble because of the help she was giving to Lizeth about the news of someone carryingOmarion's child and she knew that if they traced it to her.Rachel tries to be hopeful and not anxious but her anxiety increased when she saw a face fromthe company's HR department coming up to the CEO's office."Take this," the man says, not even gearing around the bush handing over a letter to Rachel."Spoiler alert…..it's not a promotion letter," the man says with an awkward smile and Isis couldalready picture what it was all about but she remained hopeful until she saw it."You are firing me?" Rachel asked the man and the man nodded his head, not apologetic aboutwhat Rachel was feeling at the moment."Do you mean that I am being fired?" Rachel asked in the heat of the moment with the letter thatwas just given to her. She could not believe that they just fired her from her job. "This is n
The news about Phoenix's pregnancy being false filled the news and everybody was surprised to see that they were actually fooled and the news was fake. Isis saw the news too since she was on her phone trying to check the progress of the man.She was happy that everything turned out well and Omarion was finally able to get rid of the scandal. She saw that the comments about Omarion was getting better and the netizens had reversed their sentiments about him. Isis went downstairs to show Omarion's parents the news and they were both ecstatic seeing that Omarion had finally gotten rid of the rumor that was like a tick to him."I am actually relieved, I mean those people were really out for him, so I am happy that he could kick it off," Omarion's mother says with a bright smile on her face and just as she concludes her words Omarion enters the house."Abd uts the most celebrated man on the internet today," Omarion's father joked and the rest of the family burst into laughter hearing that.
Omarion drove to Phoenix's house to go pick her up and she was surprised to see Phoenix already standing in front of her door, all dressed but what surprised him was her dressing. He could not believe anyone in the right senses could wear such revealing clothes in a hospital. Omarion shook his head at the girl, clearly disgusted, but he shook his head knowing that he just had to bear with it for some time. "Hello," Phoenix greeted wiggling her exposed a bit trying to give Omarion enough view but the man was not interested in the view he was just disgusted."Let's go," Omarion says walking over to the side of the car and opening the door for the irritated Phoenix.Phoenix was angry that the man did not even care to compliment he look when she was looking that sexy for the media so she decided to ask him.Omarion also enters into the car after Phoenix and that was the chance Phoenix was waiting for."Why are you not complimenting my look Don't you think I deserve an accolade for dress
The morning sun shone brightly on the city, giving it an amazing view and the birds nearby chirped loudly as they went on with their activities.Isis looked at Omarion who was all dressed to go out and she smiled but the man was wondering why the lady was still in a good mood even though he was going to meet another woman."Are you not mad at me?" Omarion asked and Isis raised her eyebrow wondering what the man was talking about. "Why would I be mad at you?" She asked and Omarion sighed seeing that the lady was really clueless."Are you not so naive? I am going to meet another woman should you not supposed to be mad?" Omarion asked and Isis chuckled hearing what Omarion said.Yes, she was supposed to be mad and also act jealous but she knew what Omarion was meeting Phoenix for and she also knew it was for everyone's betterment so there was no way she was going to be unreasonable when she knew what was happening."Why should I be jealous? I know what you are going there to do so don't
The table was filled with smiles and Omarion could see everyone was getting along, so he decided to use the opportunity to apologize to Isis.He knew that even though Isis had told him that he had been forgiven, that did not mean that he had not been an a*****e to her. They started their relationship on the wrong foot because of his crazy desires but he wanted to believe that was how fate said they were going to meet."Erm erm," Omarion cleared his throat and everyone's eyes moved to him wondering what the man was trying to say. "I also have someone to ask forgiveness from," Omarion says and his words raise an eyebrow as they wonder who Omarion is going to seek forgiveness from. "I am sorry, babe," Omarion apologized holding onto Isis's hands and Isis was dumbfounded about what the man was actually apologizing for. "What did you mean?" Isis asked and Omarion just smiled at her."Just because you forgive me doesn't mean everything is fine it just means that you have a big heart and y
After Omarion's mother apologized to her son she felt a load lifted her chest and she was so happy and blissful. She could not believe that she could get her son's forgiveness just like that and the fact that he doesn't even hold it against her was enough reason to make her happy.She was really blessed with a good son by the heavens so why was she too blind to notice that?She knew Omarion forgiving her was not just because of his own leniency but because Isis had taught him to love and also forgive and for that she was grateful to the girl.Omarion's mother went back to her room after talking it out with Omarion and she decided to appreciate Isis for changing his son.She did not know how to go about it but she knew that the girl would not really appreciate material things from her so she decided on something else."Why don't I cook dinner, that way everyone would feel my sincerity and we can come together as a family?" Omarion's mother mumbled to herself and she hurried to the kitc
