As they stepped outside the hospital Carlos stopped Triffany, he bends down and ties her shoelaces which were still loose. Triffany looks down at some surprise.
"You can't even do a single thing right." He told her and got up after tying it.
Triffany scoffed. "I was in a hurry that's why." She looked at him. "Why were you being so nice in there?" She asked him, he acted like a lovely husband when he was with her parents.
Carlos shrugged and rolled his eyes. "That's because am nice." Who believes this liar, Triffany sighed. "You didn't have to put on the pretence, because you're not nice at all." She told him.
"Please Triffany." Carlos looked at her. "Enough of your dramas, we have to go pick your brother, he must be worried by now." Carlos reminded her.
She looked at him. "As if you care." She rolled her eyes. "We're family". She uses his tone of words. "You can stop acting right now."
Carlos smirked. "Okay then." He said nonchalantly and en
Carlos and Triffany were inside their room after Triffany had tucked Tommy to sleep. She sat down on the couch while he was on the bed.Carlos looked over at her, she was deep in thought and it was past ten. "Hey what are you doing?" He asked out of concern.Triffany looked up to him. "I don't know. I just can't sleep." She said honestly.Carlos got out of the bed and went over to the couch. "Why?""Dad is in the hospital and mom is by his side awake and then Tanner who isn't aware of any of it because I lied to him." She looked down at her hands that were in her laps.Carlos held her hands and gently squeezed them, he knew how she felt now. "Your dad and mom would be fine and Tanner, you lied to him because you don't want him to get worried, so it's for his good."Triffany looked up at him as he continued. "I do lie to Gabby too, most times, so you did the right thing. Whereas you should worry more about yourself and your health." He told h
Triffany arrived at Chixobest company to see the angry face of the director. "It's over an hour Triffany." He folded his arm with a furrowed brow."I'm sorry." Triffany apologized."And don't tell me you ran into traffic." Director Kammy told her, knowing that workers use that always as an excuse."I did not," Triffany said honestlyElvis Daniels came out. "We better hurry now." He told them and director Kammy looked at Triffany one last time before walking away.Tommy went over to her. "That was a nice escape." She smiled as he hands her some file."Let's go." Elvis Daniels told them and they all enter the big van and drove off.They approached Glammaly estates as Triffany was shocked at the entrance. She looked up at director Kammy. "Why are we here?" She asked him."What?" Director Kammy looked at her like she had just asked a stupid question."We are at Glammaly estate." Triffany pointed at the entrance."Yes.
To Carlos surprise, she looked up at him and smile as he started cutting big chunks out and insisting he rethink some parts and gave him ideas on some of the things he never thought of adding before.Carlos was impressed and he seems to have lost this battle as he surrendered. She had finished lining out the places he knew had faults and it was not even up to an hour.Director Kammy and Elvis Daniel's smile. "Wasn't she good?" Elvis asked Carlos.Carlos unfolds his arm and said nonchalantly. "Well, she's still a beginner." Triffany scoffs, this was the person he was, so it's not a surprise to her.Carlos looked at Tommy. "I'm sure you're good at what you do." He then turned to Elvis. "I will work with them.""Thanks." Elvis smiled and shook hands with him as Carlos let them.Tommy turned to Triffany and the rest. "Am I the only one who noticed that he have a bad way of complimenting someone?""No, you're not the only one." Triffany lo
She calmed herself down and sat down on the chair across from him as Carlos waited for her to continue. "You told me to wear this yellow dress and left home without waking me up, you are the reason I arrived late and received an early morning scolding."Carlos smile. "I warned you last night to sleep early but, you didn't listen.""A husband duty is to wake his wife when he knows she has to leave for work early." And she had told him last night about it."Why are you acting like a typical wife now?" He asked her."Jeez!" Triffany rolled her eyes. "Never mind since it's bygone." She knew she would always lose to him."Okay. You may leave now." He pointed at the door."I need a favour from you," Triffany told him as she blinks her eyes like a cute puppy.Carlos looked at her cute face. "What favour?" He asked her, not surprised by her switch in attitude. Just now she was angry at him and now she was acting cute and asking for a favour.
Triffany went to Tanner's room the next morning since she woke up early."Hey, Tanner." She called out to her sleeping brother as she opened the curtain and let the sunray in.Tanner gently open his eyes and sat up, stretching his body he looked at his sister. "Good morning Triffany."."Morning Tanner, wake up." She hands him a glass of milk. "Here, drink this.""Thanks." He drank them all and placed the glass on the table."Now, time to prepare you for school." She told him. "Get up." She can remember doing this at home when she was not yet married."Carry me," Tanner told her and open his arm wide pretending to be tired."You're not a child so get up yourself," Triffany told him, she already knows this was one of his act.Tanner sighed. "Mom would have carried me." He put his hands down."Sorry, but am not mom, am your sister." She flashed him a quick smile. "Tanner, come on...""Okay." Tanner climb down from th
“Good thing you know.” She smiled and her phone started ringing. She answered after checking the caller ID. “Hello, Mom.” Hearing mom, Tanner looked up from his book. “Yes, Tanner is here.”“Let me talk to him,” Laura asked and she gave Tanner the phone.“Hello, Mommy!” Tanner called out with excitement.“Tanner, my boy.” Laura was also happy to hear from him, if her husband had died in the crash, she never knew how she would have to her son about it, but she was grateful that he was happy.“Mommy, you left without telling me, am I that unimportant?” Tanner asked picking offence as Triffany and the others looked at him.“No honey, it was urgent,” Laura said softly, realizing how worried Tanner would have been at that time.“I miss you and dad,” Tanner said with his little voice.“We miss you too, so much and guess what?&rd
Carlos turned to Triffany, still with smiles on his lips. "Jeez!" He beams. "This is so nice. Gabby loves him and can have him." Triffany looked at his face with a knowing gaze."Triffany you're married to me so, don't get too attached to Gabby's boyfriend." He told her, already referring to Tommy as his sister's girlfriend."What are you even say?" She shook her head, cause she can't even understand why he is suddenly so happy. She took her things and head upstairs.Carlos looked down at his laptop with joy. He had been scared that Triffany would leave Tommy, but good thing he is the one married to her.He bites down his lips in joy. Now Gabby is in love with Tommy and his fear was not going to happen. "The world is in my favour." He said gladly that he was a lucky man.Gabby sat down in her room looking at Tommy's picture, the one she took of him secretly on the beach. "Tommy, the person you finally found, your first love, the lady you can't forg
Stay away from me!This word keeps playing in her mind till she arrived at her cousin’s apartment. After work Triffany couldn’t go home since she knew how angry Carlos was.“Triffany, what’s wrong?” Allison who saw how gloomy and pale her face was, asked. And looking closely you can see that she had cried a lot.Triffany sat down and started sobbing again. “Allison, I did wrong.” She said with a choked voice.“How, Triffany?” Allison sat next to her.“Now Carlos will never love me.” She cries. She had hoped that one day Carlos will love her, that soon he will fall in love with her, but now, with what he witnessed, he will never do that. “He will divorce me.” Triffany closed her eyes as tears rolled down her cheek.I don’t want to see or hear what you want to say, I have seen enough.Carlos word came to her mind again, truly he will hate her. Just last
