I got out of bed and headed to the bathroom. I took a bath and went out. Mr. Gavin wasnt in the room. I wondered where he gone.
I sat on the dressing mirror table and begun to doll my face. I decided on a nude makeup. It didn't take me a century to finish.
I was intending to pick up a dress from the closet when the bedroom door pushed open.
Mr. Gavin came in holding two cloth bags in his hands. I hurried run to him to help but he just;no dear they are too heavy for you.
He placed them on the bed. Good morning my dearest sugar baby. He greeted with a smile.
Good morning my darling daddy. You must be tired from all the work last night. I replied sitting on his lap.
No l wasnt tired. Not when you were sleeping near me. It was all worth it. Knowing that someone is there and willing to keep you company in every situation is the most beautiful thing in this world. Its even better than money. He responded.
He was so emotional that l f
Mr. Gavin's povThese past months have been the best ever since l became a grown up man. To love and to be loved is something that can make a person live with out any worries. Even if you dont have anything to eat the following day, one can still live well because of that one person that makes living blissful.A beautiful, loving, a kind, a trustworthy and determined woman is every man's dream. And that is my sugar baby Ashina. The moon that shows me the way in the dark at night and the sun that brights my day.Ashina Warren! This girl came into my life at the right time. The more l tried to avoid what l feel for her the more l find my self drown into her sweet charms.No woman has ever did something like seducing me and l fall into the seduction. But she did. She first appeared when l needed help the most.She saved my life. The second time she also came to me when l was about to give up on life.Now here we are. A person like me is able to see throu
Ashina's povCouple of the year. I must say you two are stunning today. And Ash am jealous of those perfect curves. Dorris said.Well if l dont know you l would have thought that you are interested in my woman Dora. Mr. Gavin replied with a teasing smile.Big bro you! What are you saying? Am hundred percent sure that am straight in love. Dorris responded embrassed.Hmm its okay my dear Dorris and thanks for the compliments. I spoke easing the atmosphere.We greeted each other and and the two sisters led us in the garden. Many dinning tables and chairs were well placed and few of them are occupied by the people.Everyone seems to be in a good and party mood. My darling princess is finally here. Mrs. Maina said giving me a tight hug. You are so beautiful my child. She added.Thank you mum but why are you crying? I replied with concern.Its nothing my dear l just remembered something dont mind
My dear l dont interfere in how you should run your relationship or marriage with my son. I dont want to be the baddest mother in law out there. My mother in law never did the same so l wont do it either. I just wish you only the best. Thats all. Mrs. Maina commented back. I didnt say anything other than tightening a hug with her. We will definitely be happy mum you will see. I added. Yes you will with the Grace of the Lord. She whispered in my ear. I must say that l am loving this woman day by day. She is easy going and loving. And am happy that she has been there for me when l needed a motherly figure. Am really grateful. What are you two talking about? Mr. Gavin's voice settled the both of us.We split from the hug. Nothing much. Just mother to daughter conversation. My in laws please sit down for a cup of coffee. Mrs. Maina replied her son and then suggested coffee to my parents. Sure thanks mrs. Maina for the hospitality. My mu
I couldnt believe what my ears . The only experience l had in relationship was with Cole. I had always thought that its women who are being treated unfairly in love since l went through it. It never occured to me that men are also suffering. This grown up man was broken really hard. However l must say that he is a strong man to wake up from that shock of his life. A woman keeping a man in a lie for over twenty years is something cruel and disturbing for sure. A man goes crazy just finding out that the child for one upto five years isnt his. But what about the one who raised two kids. Watching them grow, educate them and be there whenever they need him. What do you expect him to do? Or how to react? Am not saying this because mr. Gavin is my man. But that woman is really heartless. I went silent. I didnt know how to comfort him. It was only like past fifteen minutes did l find my voice. It must have been really hard for yo
Please allow me to stay with my daughter. My mum begged mr. Gavin.Oh mum you dont have to be polite like that. Although am old but you are my mother in law now. I will leave the two of you now. Mr. Gavin replied her. My mum nodded. Mr. Gavin kissed my forehead. He gave me another charming smile before he headed out of the ward.My mum and l stared at each other for minutes before she broke into tears again.I can't believe that......... Mum pleaseeeee.... I reached out and hugged her. You dont have to be like that. Things change the world change so do people that live in it. There is nothing new here. There are young girls out there who are pregnant or gave birth already. There are many. Younger than me. So get yourself out of it and accept the reality. I cut her mid air and clutch at her body afterwards.It took us minutes to break the embrace.My mum spent another minutes staring at me while not saying anything. Moments later she relaxed and sat d
Ashina's povMr Gavin stood up on the stairs his eyes bloodshot. I run to him despite how scary he looked and wanted to hug him but he pushed me away.I dont want anything to do with you or that pregnancy of yours.My family is more important than anything else. Get out of here as soon as you can. He shouted at me. I felt that my brain isn't working at the moment.But I begged and cried. I told how much l loved him but none of them worked. I couldn't believe that he could do that to me.l become desperate of his touch and wanted to gain his attention than l ever done but every thing was futile.I was so lost and heart broken.Really bad. I got out of the white villa and run into the road crying. The weather cloudy and groomy so does my mood at that moment. Moments later it started to pour.l didnt know where to go.I was very weak that l couldn't move anymore thus l scotted down and let the heavy rain pour on me. Whenever the thun
I actually started to panic again. I have been expecting that woman to strike back but l didn't know that she will choose that method. The more l thought about it, the more am convinced that she won't let the man go. That will result into my suffering and dont want my child to be born without a dad. Women are difficult to deal with. Especially when you have spent many years with them. I couldn't stand it anymore.Moments later l tried to sleep but failed. l felt that my pressure is raising up again. I didnt want to sleep in the hospital again.Yes whatever that will happen must not find me in this place. Whatever it is must find me strong for me and the baby.Thus l stood up from my hospital bed and eat something and drank the soup mrs. Maina brought for me.Luckily the Maina family supports me.I felt energetic after drinking the soup. I started to engage into the conversation with my inlaws. At around 2: 40pm,mr Gavin called to inform me
Ashina's povReporter 3: So ms Ashina did you.....Mr Gavin: Thank you baby for this. Rest for the time being. Mr. Gavin didn't let another reporter to ask me.Me : Sure honey love youMr. Gavin : Love you moreI smiled at him before l went off the screen.Ashina l swear l wanna be like you when l grow up. Dorris spoke making all of us burst into laughter.No you people don't laughter. I love the she smile whenever my brother's name is mentioned or comes out of her mouth. And this what you just said is going to be the talk of the town. Just wait and see. Dorris went ahead to say.But l don't understand why will Gavin want another woman yet he already have a family. One middle aged woman loudly voiced out. This woman was introduced to me yesterday as the Maina siblings aunt. She is the wife of their uncle.My brother is old enough to make decisions regarding his personal affairs. Who do you think you are
Alec recorded a video himself where he saidGoodmorning every one. My name is Alec Thomas. Some of you may know me and others don't. Am the current ceo of Thomas group. And am here to clarify the rumors spread about my wife.My wife and l met two years ago and fellow in love with each other. At that time neither of the two of us where married or had any partner.So it's ridiculous for miss Linda to call my wife a mistress when she clearly knows every thing. Miss Linda and l were married for two years but divorced due to her betrayal as you can see in the video below this one. Please don't abuse my wife and family more because of this matter otherwise l will be forced to give a lawyers letter. Thank you for your time. Alec's clarification was belief. After his video another played. In the video two people appeared. One man and the other woman. They were in a hotel room. Have you got the document l told you from Alec, the man asked. I got everything in my bag. I even found something
You being a rich sometimes feels you are guilty of many things. And people treat you are you no human. That you have to give in to all their demands. Take Linda for example. She is a greed person and always want more even though she knows it's out of her reach. Mrs. Thomas said.Back then her father was a royal servant of my husband. He was a good mannered man and also keep others safe. As a reward for his hardworker, my husband arranged a marriage between the two families and also sent Linda abroad to study further. My husband died and in that very year my oldest son disappeared. So Alec had to marry Linda. Anyway there wasn't any choice made who should marry her when the arrangements were made. And that time Alec needed a wife for business.He treated her well and she never lacked anything. But she was deceived by others to betray her husband and the family. Now she keeps on pestering us as we owe her. She is just shameless. She added.So that what happened. I thought inwardly. I di
The kids were still asleep but with the help of their nannies, every thing became easy. Few minutes later we stood at the entrance of a gigantic door. It was not inside the mansion but attached to it in the sides. The door slowly opened on its own. A sharp lingering sweetness of incense filled my nostrils. Am not a fun of incense but this was too mouth watering. I inhaled it from time to time as we entered the hall. Like the dinning hall and other important halls in the mansion, the ancestral hall was also cathedral ceiled. It's just a free space with only a red carpet. No chairs. When you just enter you are faced with the alter on which many pictures of old people are displayed.Most of the elders and other youths were present. Old man also the family's only grandpa left on earth took lris from me. He also called the other three kids to go to the alter. He then knelt down and said in a loud voice: "Our dear great ancestors both paternatal and maternal ones l greet you all l present
Six months later we traveled to edini city. Mrs Thomas suggested that since we had named the baby with Thomas family name, she had to be presented to the ancestral hall in the mansion. She claimed that the baby will be blessed and protected. Neither l nor Alec argued about it. In addition to that, Tonny Alec's personal assistant'wedding was around the corner. It was planned to take place in Edini city. Thus this journey was inevitable. It was Saturday night when we landed. Unlike the past visits to Thomas mansion, this time it was filled with people of different ages every where. Is the Thomas family very big? I couldn't help but ask Alec. Yes there are so many people who live in different cities. They normally gather here when some thing important came up. He explained. I nodded. Most of these people ain't easy to deal with and they are greed for healthy in this main branch. We have to be cautious of every one here. Although l dealt with the person who staged the original Alec's p
Ashina's point of viewThe situation was already stagnant but Leyla was still stubborn. She dared to plot something like that to my daughter and thought that she will go scot free. What mind does she have?Ain't you going to apologize Leyla Anthony? I asked but Leyla only scoffed. In you dreams. She uttered without any fear. Very well then. I replied with a smile. At that time Leyla was being held by two body guards. I signaled to them and they got a hint. In the next seconds Leyla was forced to drop on the floor kneeling infront of me. She gasped in pain. I kept my smile as l saw her angry face.You bitch how dare you... Paa.... I slapped her so hard that my palm hurt. Whom did she call a bitch? I hate people to look down on me the most.You think you got it all that you are stepping on me. Bitch am telling that if you are to do something on me just do it otherwise you will... PAA...... Another slap..... Apparently she doesn't know that the word bitch is the reason why she is having
Leyla's point of view Ashina Warren thought that l was her friend few years back. Little did she know that she was the person l hated most in this world. At school she always took my spotlight. Even after school she shone brighter than any of the other girls in school with her wealthy family. And later she married Gavin Maina the guy l had eyes for and my father was in support of me. If l had married Gavin, our family would have been in top five in the country. The Maina family has alot of influence in Rabadan and country Z at large. I didn't expect that she will be a stabbing block in my way. I approached George who thought that l was madly in love with him. But all l wanted was his elder brother. Gavin was smart, outstanding and handsome despite the fact that he had aged. That bitch Ashina ruined our plans by marrying him. How could we just sit and let something that we planned for a long time just go to waste like that. We did everything but never succeeded. Her dad despite the
Ashina's point of viewI had stopped going to work. Every thing that needed my signature had to be done online. However after my pregnancy was in the second trimester, l couldn't even sit on the chair to do work for more than two hours. My head was ever buzzing and am dizzy for minutes. Alec had to take over my roles even though he did not want to get involved in the company anymore. I was sick every day. No every second that at the beginning of the third trimester l thought that l was going to die. My family couldn't do anything but just sit in the living room waiting for what is next.And the kids would just ask me when am going to play with them again. And that would make me sad. However thinking about the other baby in my womb, l had to fight hard to keep my emotions at bay. Surprising the last month l didnt get any sickness and was relieved that am going to give birth happily.l would even walk around in the garden and play with my kids. Who would have imagined that Leyla Anthony
Alec's point of view. It was there, l mean that sense of contentment when l entered the white villa after a long period of time. That is the thing l dont feel when am at the Thomas mansion in Edini city. Here it feels home. It's where l do belong but at the moment l wasnt enjoying it when my Ashina was suffering for our baby. I just finished the last meeting and decided to let her know that l was coming back. But Jane her secretary was the one who answered and informed me that she was in the hospital. Don't get confused. Ashina has two Janes . The one who is the kids' nanny and the other is the secretary at work. While rushing to the car to go to the airport, l asked her what happened. Ashina had informed me yesterday about her stomach discomforts and insisted that she was better. I stupidly believed her but apparently l made a grave mistake. I shouldn't have listened to her and call the doctor right away. Am not sure sir what. really happened to her. I called her several times a
Moments later the dizziness was gone. I helped myself on the railing and l went to my room. Climbing all the stairs almost took my life. I was breathing heavily when l made it to the room. My lips were dry to the extent that there was blood in the middle of my lower lip. I drank a bottle of water that was on table besides my bed.I lay on bed flat.My tummy's discomforts were back again and this it was serious. I tossed on the bed. Curved into a ball few times but nothing was helping. The discomforts turned into unbearable pain.At this time l regretted not allowing Alec to call a doctor.l tried to get my phone to ring the doctor myself and only to remember that l have left the phone down stairs. Luckily someone opened the door. I heard tinny footsteps. I could only imagine that lsla was the one that came in before l blanked out.When l came back to my sense, l was welcomed by a white ceiling and the smell of disinfectants. I knew that l was in the hospital right away.But still l fel
