Michael sat in his study room going through some office work, it’s been six days since Sasha came back home, she haven’t brought about her break again but things hasn’t been smooth between them still. She hardly talks to Michael unless it involves their children and whenever he tried to raise a conversation between them, she either says she was not in the mood or she ignores him or walks out. Michael would be a liar if he says it doesn’t affect him, but he refused to give up or force her to speak to him.A knock on the door distracted him and he looked up at the door and ushered in, “come in.”The door pushed open and Sasha walked in fully dressed. Michael raised an eyebrow noticing her dressing, he was surprised for he had no idea she was going anywhere today also because of the fact that she hasn’t gone out for the past six days. Sasha stared straight at him, “we are leaving, I just thought you should know.”“I don’t understand,” he said, standing up, “what do you mean by ‘we are le
Sasha sighed, she ran her fingers through her hair and licked her lips before glancing up at Vanessa, she didn’t know what to say. Possibly because that the past seven days she had been thinking the same thing, she had been wondering if maybe she and Michael weren’t meant to be, maybe they weren’t destined to be and now Vanessa had said the same thing. Maybe that would explain why they can’t be happy together, why every little thing was a problem between them. She just couldn’t say anymore and to be honest, it has been weighing her down, especially what would become of her kids if she and Michael were to divorce.Vanessa could see the stress she was going through and she sighed, “I’m sorry, I told you I was not asking you out to talk about Michael but he seem to be the only thing we have been talking about. What would you like to have?” she smiled and picked up her menu.Sasha exhaled and picked up hers but ended up picking their signature steak and Vanessa picked the same as well. Th
Two weeks later, Sasha had to take the kids to the park as per their request. They have been begging her for it since the week before and she promised them on Saturday, Sapphire had made the wish that she hope Michael would come with them but Sasha acted like she didn’t hear her because she had no thought of calling him.During the past week, Michael has been doing everything to get her to come home but her decision has remained the same, she wasn’t yet ready and she wants to be sure within herself that she can live with his overprotective nature and constant demands that he knows where she was at the moment. She may have found that sweet before but not anymore. They really need to see past their differences and Michael has to let go of his past attitude. She has never told him that and she had no idea of doing so either. She was tired of being the one to tell him what to do for their relationship to work.As they drove into the park, she said to the children, “remember the plan, stic
Sasha’s felt like her jaw dropped to the ground as she stood staring at Michael who obviously was anxious about her reply and nervous as well. She closed her mouth, opened it to speak but ended up closing it again. She licked her lips because for some reason it seemed chapped, then she bit her lower lip and shook her head softly with a light chuckle. She took a deep breath and blew out through the mouth before looking up at him again. She chuckled once more and shook her head again. She blinked and looked into his crystal blue eyes one more time, “let me get this straight,” she finally found her voice, “you want us to start from the very beginning, like…we don’t know each other.”“Yes,” Michael replied, glad that she finally said something, “the truth is,” he chuckled lightly and bit his lip, “I have never dated anyone in my life before and…I just realized that I would really love to have that experience. But I don’t want to have it with any other person, just you. You are my first ev
Sasha parked in front of Friendly Zero, the new club that Janet insisted that they must attend as she has always wanted to check it out but didn’t want to go alone. She pulled down the visor and checked herself one more time on the mirror and pushed it back up. Then grabbing her clutch and phone, she killed the engine and climbed out of the car.She was the first to arrive among her friends and she loved that, for once she would be the one complaining of them keeping her waiting. It wasn’t long, she saw Janet pulling in and she grinned at her. Janet laughed seeing that and immediately after parking, she got down and went to her. “What is the matter Sash, why are you here already?”“Do you know how long I have been waiting?” she pretended to be angry.Janet laughed, “good for you, at least for once, you will be the one waiting.”Sasha grinned and glanced at the club door where two bouncers were attending to the long queue, “are you really sure we can get in there?”“Of course, why can’
Sasha opened the door to the man standing outside dressed in a black blazer and white polo underneath and blank pants. He looked so different from the always in suit businessman she has come to know and she couldn’t not notice how handsome he looked.Michael was struck by the beauty of the lady in white in front of him; the gown she was wearing was among the recent things he bought for her during the time he got something for the kids. Never in his life had he imagined that she would wear anything from there anytime soon. Her hair was up in a high ponytail with few tendrils dropping at her cheeks, she smiled at his perusal, slowly biting her lower lip. “Wow,” was all he could say.“Wow what?” Sasha asked, feeling all giddy inside. This wasn’t the first time Michael was taking her out to eat but it was the first time he was picking her up to go on a date. She had sent the kids and Hannah to her mother’s place because she has been complaining that they don’t spend time with her enough t
Time flew by with Sasha and Michael getting closer than they ever thought they would, Sasha couldn’t help but feel that agreeing to start from the very beginning with him was the best decision she had ever made.She drove over to the Brown’s Villa where Vanessa had asked her to meet her. Arriving to the Villa, her children ran out to meet her and she was surprised, they have been staying with her mother for the past week now because she refused to let them leave, so what were they doing there?She kissed both their cheeks and they went inside together where she saw her mom and Vanessa laughing really hard at something. “Wow, that’s a sight you don’t see every day,” she smiled, walking up to them.“Sasha dear,” Vanessa smiled, “you are here.”The kids left her hands to go continue with their play. She kissed her mother on the cheek, “hi mom,” and then she kissed Vanessa as well, “hi mom.”“Aren’t you a sight for sore eyes dear,” Angelica said.“Oh, why wouldn’t she be, when I don’t kno
Michael got ready for his meeting that was starting in the next hour, he quickly grabbed his files and left his room, hoping to catch a quick breakfast with Sasha before he left. He already made orders in the restaurant and he hoped it would be ready by the time they got there. He heaved a sigh and knocked on her door softly, but after waiting for some seconds and there was no answer, he had to knock again, louder this time. Few seconds later, the door was thrown open by a really sleepy Sasha. He chuckled and raised an eyebrow, “late night?”Sasha yawned in a really not lady like manner and she showed that she didn’t give a damn what he thought, “some of us found it hard sleeping even after turning in. I Face timed with the kids and mom can be you know, something else.”Michael smiled, “well, since clearly you still need sleep, I will leave you to it.”“You are living already?”“Not till the next hour.”“I guess I really slept in didn’t I?”“It doesn’t matter, I will let them know to
