"Try on all of them, Daryl said as he sat down to watch me try on some clothes I picked out from the store. We were in a private changing room with a few couches and he relaxed in one basically having sex with me with his eyes.
The first thing I tried on was a black knee length dress with a single strap that goes over my shoulder and a silver belt. I looked in the mirror seeing the dress hugging every inch of my body. I turned and looked at Daryl who wouldn't stop staring at my figure.
"sexy..... I like it... take it."
He went back to his phone as I removed the dress and tried on a few other clothes along with a lace lingerie he said he wanted to wear for him then he would tell me if it suits him or not. After I was finished I took the ones that he chose and he payed for them; along with some shoes

Stella Newton I pushed the door opened and saw the woman who gave birth to me siting up in bed, sipping on some tea and watching television. She smiled brightly at me as I returned it with tears filling my eyes. She placed the cup on a table beside the bed before I engaged her in a long warm hug. "I missed you mom" "I miss you too sweetie, she replied rubbing my back with the smile that never left her face. I pulled away and sat in the chair beside her bed. " So how's work? "" I lost my job but I got a new one as a maid""really? That's great. How long have you been working?, she said showing so much interest in my new job choice. " A few months "She nodded her head and then there was silence.

Stella I watched from the top of the stairs as Amanda's parents - well her mom - blabbed on her phone about what not. Her father seemed rather quiet and peaceful as he sat down in one of the couches and watched his wife rambled on.Its been two days since what Daryl told me about Amanda and to say the least, I didn't expect that from her. When I first came here she was nice and seemed like the perfect the wife - but I was wrong.After we came home that day I came across Amanda who was in the living room in her robe sipping a glass of wine. Daryl didn't spare her a glance or a word as he passed her and went to his room. She watched him deeply before she got up and followed behind him. I didn't listen their conversation because I thought - what was the point?Amanda had no clue about the fact that Daryl and even I, knew about her unfaithfulness.

Stella "Home sweet home" I watched as mom examined our home with a smile on her face. I took her bag to her room before going back downstairs to see her in deep, deep thought. "mom? What's wrong?, I asked going beside and wrapping my arms around her. " I'm just overwhelmed you know? Apart of me was thinking that I wouldn't be here today". "Well you're here, and right now is the happiest I've ever been". I gave her a small smile before hugging her and kissing her cheek. After I pulled away I went to the bag with a few groceries that I bought and started preparing some soup for her. The doctor said that she must consume soft foods for now; maybe in the next few months she can start eating solid foods.

few days laterStella "You found someone else didn't you!?"I watched as Amanda shouted at Daryl who was sitting on the couch, in the living room, with his legs crossed while sipping a glass of wine. He didn't looked moved at all by her shouting as he continued to ignore her. Her face held all types of emotions as she balled her fists while glaring at Daryl. "Is she better than me?! What did she have that I didn't?! Is it because of her that's why you're treating me like this!? Like a stranger!?." Daryl was still unmoved. My own emotions I couldn't even explain. It was really hard to think that Amanda is so oblivious to her infedilty with Leon. It was like she couldn't figure out that her husband found out long ago and that's why he's acting this way.

Stella "Thank you for coming" I nodded and looked at Jackson who sat across from me in the small cafe he said he wanted me to come to.

"First, I wanted to say that I am sorry for judging you and - I looked at him and he sighed. He ran his hand through his hair before removing it and placing it on the table. " I talked to Daryl.

Stella "Everyone's nice and easy to get along with so don't worry about anything" I nodded at Francis before relaxing in the car seat. We were on our way to his house for a reunion his family was keeping. I was dressed casually in a knee length skirt and a designer's blouse with some simple shoes. Francis on the other hand was dressed like he was going to a fashion show in Las Vegas. He was wearing a black jeans with a few zippers, a white button up shirt, a brown leather jacket and shoes that have the same color with aviator glasses that made him look hot but cool at the same time. "Is your family really large?, I asked turning off the radio so I could hear his response properly. " Well, I wouldn't say really large, about ten of us will be there, aside from the kids"

Stella Newton "Congratulations" I pulled Belle in for a long hug as she squealed before pulling away with the biggest smile I've ever seen from her. "Thank you ; I want a girl but Mark wants a boy", she said before walking off to the direction of her room. I was really happy for her and her pregnancy. She had always wanted a baby and now, she gets to have the family she always talked about so much. I sat on the couch to wait for her to come back. She called me earlier saying that she had an emergency but turned out - it was a prank to get me here pronto. "I can't wait to know the gender" She sat on the couch opposite of me with that same content smile. I had never thought too much of kids. I want them yes but I'm still young and besid

Stella I pulled my hair from the bun that it was in before letting it fall on my shoulders. Lunch with Daryl was great ; we even spent most of our time dancing which I would be terrible at if he hadn't taught me the basic steps. After that he brought me here, to his penthouse which was extremely luxurious if you ask me.He came up behind me and ran his hands down my arms. I shivered from his touch and leaned into his chest. Our eyes met when I looked into the mirror and he smirked at me. I turned around placed my hands on his chest in a teasing way I knew he liked. "Ready for your suprise?" I removed my hands from his body before giving a yes. He raised an eyebrow before taking me by the hand and pulling me from his room. We went down a long, dark hall until he stopped infront of a black door. His eyes met mine
