The last of Fernanda's things were laid down in the penthouse by one of Mr Velasquez's Concierge, Fernanda needed a breather after that surprisingly exciting afternoon. A bath didn't seem so bad and a well deserved meal prepared by herself would be nice, but first she needed to put her things away and find out where she would be sleeping. Luckily Gavin's penthouse was two bedrooms so there wasn't going to be much argument, she would gladly take the second room.
Gavin got some of her bags after later entering after her and started heading towards the Masters room, Fernanda hurriedly held one side of her bags to stop him and said,
"I'm not sharing a room with you", she demanded.
"Don't be ridiculous, what is there to hide after everything I've seen. After all, we're having a child, might as well embrace it no?", Gavin debated with a raise of an eyebrow.
"We're not a couple, I don't see any point in sha
Fernanda woke up to a dark room with light only coming from the corridor, she turned to check her phone and was shocked to realize it was half passed midnight. She also realized that she was not in the living room but her new room, meaning Gavin came home and put her to bed.She scoffed and got out of bed to look for a drink of water in the kitchen, she sneaked passed his room so he wouldn't know she was awake. Upon entering the living area, she stabbed her toe on an object on the floor and nearly tripped over it.Fernanda had to switch the lights on to see what nearly took her life, then her heart melted at the sight of a beautiful black and gold colored car seat. She held her mouth and knelt down to take a closer look at it, tears filled her eyes as she thought about a little baby sitting in it, her baby."Do you like them?", Gavin said from the kitchen island he was standing next to the whole time she was there.
Two months flew by and the almost new couple in town were having the time of their lives, getting to know each other more, shopping and eating out, sex was way more exciting and Fernanda was starting to show a little bump.Gavin found himself giving into his feelings more than he expected, everything happened so quickly and Fernanda even had the privilege of finally meeting Gavin's adoptive mother.It was a week after Gavin's proposal when he finally brought his mother home to meet Fernanda, it was a little exciting but way more nerve wrecking for Fernanda than Gavin.He and his mother walked into the apartment and joined Fernanda in the living area where she was waiting for them with her head bowed down and her hands crossed over her thighs, she tried to dress her best to make a good impression on her future mother inlaw.Fernanda wore a black tube skirt and a red short sleeved draped shirt, she was not the kind for make up so she made it simple nu
Gavin sat by Fernanda's bed side anxiously waiting for her to wake up, the suspense got to him so much that he began to pace back and forth in the room. She was breathing but he feared that she may have gone into a coma, she had been unconscious for ten hours after the operation.“All this is because of my foolish ways, why was I such a Casanova. Why didn’t the bullet hit me instead?”, he thought to himself as he stared at her laying there.A nurse walked in to check on how she was doing and Gavin moved from where he was pacing to where the nurse was standing, he stood a little too close for comfort just so he could see what the nurse doing that it annoyed her,"Sir, may I do my job?", she asked as she held her hand out to push him away gently, she understood his struggle but he was being too much for her."I'm sorry, it's just that I've never seen her like this", he said with so much frustration."Do I look that bad?", Fernanda s
Fernanda was up breast feeding her daughter and humming to her while she rocked herself back and forth, the baby could not hear anything yet but the humming sent vibrations through her body that it calmed her to sleep. She had the cutest yawn Fernanda ever saw, she wished her parents were there as well to welcome their first grandchild.Peace ran through her when she told herself that wherever they were, they were watching over her and her daughter. She also hoped that they liked Gavin, her whole life she worked hard at making her parents proud so even while dead she had hoped they were proud of her."Mi amor...", Gavin called her as he woke from the sofa that was prepared for him to sleep in while they were at the hospital. He got up and walked to Fernanda with a smile on his face as he saw their daughter falling asleep at her mother's breast, he placed a finger on her tiny hand and she grabbed it instantly making his even wider."Awww, she knows Daddy",
“I see you got over your fear of having the baby out of your sight huh mi amor?”, Gavin said as he placed all the food items on the table next to Fernanda and begun to unpack some for her to eat.Fernanda was confused at his statement and lifted herself to up to sit straight, she looked at the crib where the baby was supposed to be and she was not there and neither were her friends.“Gavin I did not authorise anyone to take the baby, stop playing games with me okay”, she begun to say with so much fear in her tone.She attempted to get up from the bed to do more searching but Gavin quickly reached out to her to stop her from getting up.“I am sure your friends just decided to take a walk with her to allow you to rest okay”, he tried to assure her.And in that very moment Stacey walked in with the bag of drinks Brianna sent her to get, she stopped immediately when she saw the struggle between Gavin and Fernanda.
Hours had gone by and there was still no news about Brianna and the baby, Fernanda begun to feel her blood pressure rising and her heart rate increased. The last time a nurse came to check her vitals she told her that if it was not going to be get under control she would lose a lot of blood and die, that scared her a lot but it did nothing because she was still obsessing over the kidnapping. And who could blame her.Her breasts hurt every hour due to them getting filled up, but the milk did not start to come out so it gave her a mild fever.Her head was pounding from all the crying and she refused to eat a single thing since the baby went missing, Gavin would call to keep her updated of his movements and talk her into eating."Mi amor, can you please eat. You need your energy, you heard what the nurse said", he insisted with her."Yah I will", she said before cutting the call and did the exact opposite.She felt that if she ate she would just throw
Gavin’s mother arrived at the hospital and was at receptionist asking about if she could go in and see her daughter in law, just as she was about to get a go ahead, Stacey walked past behind her and realized who was standing at the reception.“Hi Mildred, good to see you again. I was just getting some hot food for Fernanda, we can go together if you like”, she said.Mildred then picked up her bag and a warmer she had brought from home with a nice hot chicken soup for Fernanda, after receiving the terrible news about the baby from Gavin she had to come and comfort her by any means possible.“Thank you dear, how is she doing?”, Mildred asked after she nodded to the nurse to thank her and turned back to Stacey.Stacey gave an unsure look and led her into the room where Fernanda just stared out the window lost in thoughts and tears that fell without her knowing, her energy was so low that she did not even hear when both Stacey and Gavin’s mother walked in.
Fernanda’s head was buried in her hands as she cried bitterly after listening to the commotion on the other side of the phone, she dropped her phone after Brianna cut while trying to hold her baby.Fernanda couldn’t take it and got up from her bed to start changing again,“That’s it, I’m going to get my baby. I won’t let Brianna bring me down like this”.Stacey and Mildred got up from their sits to try and stop Fernanda from leaving and causing herself more harm, she was already weak due to the intense loss of blood so she was even slow in her steps.Stacey made it her mission to hold the clothes she was trying to wear away from her as Mildred went around to try and calm her down.“Mija please sit down, you can’t do anything in your state. We need to stay here and be patient, don’t you trust your husband?”, she asked her.Fernanda paused in her steps and looked at her mother i
Six months went by, Gavin's Mother left to go back to her home in Spain, Jorge came back to visit Fernanda for a few days before leaving again, Generosa was on all fours crawling around the house and sitting and Fernanda was having a bad hair day on the day of her best friend's wedding.Stacey had announced that she was getting married back in Vegas where everyone she knew and loved were, Fernanda's usual program of sending flowers to her doubled to congratulate her friend on her big day."Mi amor you look fine", Gavin tried to convince his wife who had a brush in her hair for the hundredth time since she got out of the shower."You have no idea what I'm going through, and you're just saying that to make me hurry up", she hissed at him."Is it working?", Gavin asked jokingly.Fernanda gave him a dead look that gave him the shiver and then looked back to the mirror to finish up with her hair."I'll just move back slowly", he said as he took steps b
A week had gone by and Gavin’s mother, Gavin himself and Fernanda were enjoying a nice meal prepared by Fernanda. She cooked an amazing chicken spaghetti casserole, the fragrance filled the room and Gavin could not help but to keep entering the kitchen to try and steal a bite.He walked around with Generosa who had been restless for days due to stomach upsets so walking around with her was the only solution to stop her from crying, Gavin left all his managers in charge for the next few weeks to be with Fernanda until she fully recovered and help her out with the baby despite his mother being there.“Mija that smells delicious”,Mildred said as she came into the living area from doing some shopping for the house. She washed her hands quick and walked over to Gavin to give him a kiss on the cheek and took Generosa from him.“Mama don’t you want to rest first?”, he tried to refuse.“Nonsense mijo, I’ll r
After days of recovery, nurses and doctors, and drama, Fernanda was finally going home. Her doctor came to give her all the results of her tests and assured her that the baby was healthy and ready to go home, a farewell rally was done for her as she left with her baby in a wheelchair and being pushed by Gavin.All the nurses and doctors lined up outside the hospital to see her off with flowers, gifts and words of encouragement. She felt so good that she was leaving but she was going to miss them all, the love and support she had from them made it all less of an uncomfortable situation for her.“You’re going to miss them huh mi amor”, Gavin asked her as he rested their daughter on Fernanda’s lap in the back seat.“Yah I will…... But I miss home more”, she smiled at him.Gavin chuckled and agreed, it was a little too much for him as well. Watching her suffer the way she did was breaking his heart, all he was thinki
Fernanda wondered why Gavin thought it was a right time to joke around and then decided not to pay mind to what he said, but the man that stood next to him seemed to be very happy to see Fernanda despite having never met her before, she looked at him as he approached her to extend a warm hand shake and officially introduce himself.“Hi Fernanda, it is nice to finally meet you. My name is Jorge, your elder brother”, he said.Fernanda was now curious after that introduction, how could someone out of nowhere just declare he’s her brother? She gave him an unsure look but returned the hand shake, she looked at Gavin who was not in the least convinced either. But she decided to entertain it and listen to what Jorge had to say.Mildred woke up from her short nap and saw the man standing next to Gavin and heard when he said brother,“brother? Gavin what is going on?”, she asked while also giving Fernanda a puzzled look.Fernan
