"I don't understand why Jason is acting this way, Isis." Phoenix said and let out a sigh. "He isn't even picking up my calls. Doesn't he know I'm worried about him?"Isis scoffed and raised an eyebrow at her. "Worried about who? Jason? The same one you cheated on a couple of weeks back?" She said, reminding her of the last time she had a night stand with some random guy."Well, he didn't give me the drilling I needed, and I went out to look for it," Phoenix replied and shrugged. "Moreover, I was lucky to have met that guy. He sure knows how to do his job well. Would love to fuck him again I have the chance," she added and winked at Isis, who just stared at her irritatedly.Isis rolled her eyes at her. "Don't you ever get tired of sex? You want it almost all the time, do something else with your life, girl." She said and focused her eyes on her phone, checking something on it as she scrolled down.Phoenix giggled lightly. "You're only speaking that way because you haven't had the experi
"You don't speak if I don't tell you to," The boss, Omarion said as he intertwined his hands together and placed his elbows on the arms of his chair, his legs still stretched on his table.As Isis clutched her bag to herself with one hand, her other hand unconsciously dragged down her skirt slightly, pulling it over her knee, so as to get longer than it was before. Due to the anxiousness she was feeling, she wiped her sweaty palm on her short straight skirt. For the first time that day, she regretted ever putting Phoenix to the task of picking up her clothes for her.Remembering what Pheonix had told her while choosing the skirt, she bit her lips in regret. "Bosses are most times sexy ass men, so, one of the best things to do on your first day of work is to put on a very tight outfit to bring out your shape. Who knows? He might like the view and favour you more than you expected," Pheonix had said to her. But here she was, feeling like it turned out the other way around.However, Omar
"I want you." Omarion said, sounding more like a command, rather than a demand. He was able to study Isis within the small period that he had entered his office that morning that she wanted the job so badly. Confident that she'd do whatever he proposes to her just to maintain his job, he pushed the offer to her."Sorry?" Isis replied, a confused look on her face. She was quite sure she heard him well, but she wanted to believe it wasn't what she thought it was. "Can you please come again or break that sentence down to me, cause I—""I don't repeat myself, miss tardiness," he cut in with a bossy tone in his voice. "I know you heard me well, so don't pretend you didn't."Suddenly, the fear Isis had in her beforehand found its way out of her body. She was a confident woman on normal days, but due to her lateness that morning and how his secretary had scared her that she'd lose her job before entering his office, that was what made her fidget.However, the responses she had been getting e
"Are you okay?" Isis asked her with a concerned look on her face. She could tell that something was off with the way she was so quiet. The Pheonix she knew would have jumped up and asked her how her first day went, especially with the fact that she was the one who told her what to wear.Without a word, Pheonix handed a kit over to Isis and she immediately recognized it as a pregnancy test kit.She was worried before, but now she didn't want to believe what she was thinking was true. "What are you doing with this, Pheonix? What's going on?""I'm pregnant." Without hesitation, Pheonix dropped the bombshell. "Yayyy," she added sarcastically.Isis's eyes opened wide in shock as she told her about the pregnancy. She didn't want to believe it at all, despite the fact that it was very believable, judging by the fact that Pheonix wasn't a bad girl, unlike her."What are you talking about?" She collected the kit from Pheonix and checked the result, and truly, it tested her positive. However, s
The next morning, Isis was up as early as 5:30 AM. In fact, she almost didn't sleep overnight as she frequently woke up in the midnight to check the time. Despite the way her discussion ended with her new boss the day before, she was pretty determined that she was going to do better the following day, which is now today.She made sure to do all the house chores before Pheonix woke up. Judging by the mood Pheonix was as at last night, she didn't want to do anything that would stress her or her pregnancy. She was quite sure Pheonix would do the same for her anyway.As soon as she was done with the chores, she went ahead to prepare for work. By 7:30 AM, she was ready to leave for work. This time, she made sure to not put on any tight-fitting clothes, so it wouldn't arouse anything in the presence of her boss, and so that the same occurrence wouldn't repeat itself. This time around, she wore a shirt and made sure to button up all her buttons, then she went ahead to wear a more loose and f
Isis stared at the folded paper with shock. A letter of resignation? When she hadn't even started the job yet? Still not able to believe her eyes, she opened the paper quickly to read its content. Lo and behold was indeed a resignation letter. She scoffed and looked up at him from the front of his office chair where he stood, his office table was in between both of them.He could tell from the look on his face that he was very angry, and no one needed to tell her that. However, he wasn't the only one angry. In fact, she believed she had more right to be angry, unlike him, who had little to no right to be angry. Not even a little bit."I haven't even started working yet, so why am I being given a resignation letter to sign?" She queried him. Thinking about it again, she added. "Moreover, if a person wants to resign, he or she does it willingly. But here you are, firing me without any genuine reason and you're sugarcoating with the title of resignation!"Omarion folded his arms as he st
Isis took a taxi home from the company. On the way, the taxi driver kept making jokes about the country and how everything was, or how they were supposed to be. Isis however, didn't say a word as a response to him because her mind was somewhere else. Not only was she mad, she was hurt that she was called names she wasn't.And before she knew it, her anger turned into pain and she burst into tears. The driver, who had been talking along heard her crying and looked at her through the front mirror. She had her face in her palms as she cried. Though wanting to mind his business but worried, the driver decided to question her."Are you okay, miss?" He asked, moving his eyes from the road to the front mirror to look at her an back to the road. He kept on doing that to focus on both the road and his passenger.In between her tears, she responded, despite her voice being shaky and quite obvious that she wasn't fine. "I'm fine, thank you," she said without looking up.The driver simply nodded
Meanwhile, Omarion was busy fuming in his office. He still couldn't let go of the thought of how Isis had spoken to him in a razz manner, and even insulted him. The fact that he didn't even get what he wanted from her, despite saying all he said to piss her off and accept his offer, made him even more angry. By now, he wasn't even sure what he was angry about; himself or Isis."She must never step a foot into this company again!" He growled as he banged his hand on his office table one more time. He made up his mind at that moment that he would also do everything in his power to make her come crawling back to him. He made a mental note to himself to inform all the companies far and near him in Europe, not to accept her, no matter how good she was at the job."I'll be here when she comes back begging," he added and got up from his seat, walking towards the door. As soon as he got out of his office to his secretary's office, he looked at her seat and saw that she wasn't on seat. "Where
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
