Sasha bit her lower lip, she really want to get out of her and it's not helping that her earlier dispute with Kira had got the other shoppers to now monitor her, of course, Kira hadn't lowered her voice when she mentioned of her being Michael's wife and now everybody is looking at her. Although as it is her husband shop, she can just walk away with the clothes and offer to pay later but that will damage her image in all this women's eyes, Sasha cursed Michael to hell and back.
"Not only does he not give you money, you didn't even know he is the owner of this place, just what kind of a wife are you?" Kira asked sarcastically.Sasha could already hear the other women whispering and wished the ground will just open and swallow her "I have told you many times, stop leaving your credit card at home, you don't know where you will find yourself" she heard and boy does she know that voice, she turned to the door and saw him walking up to her, he hugged her and kissed her forehead "jusSasha watched as the attendants fill her trunk with bags of different sizes, each packed to the full with different types of clothes and shoes, she still can't believe how her simple shopping turned luxurious and it's not helping with the fact of this magic card that Michael gave her which pays for everything in the blink of an eye. She had been scared that the attendant might return again that there is no more fund in the card but that never happened, whenever it was slotted on the machine, it pays, it just works like magic."It's all packed now ma'am, please come visit us again" the attendant all said shyly, including the one that had abandoned her for Kira. Bella has also tried sucking up to her, she just don't understand why they were all acting like that, treating her like a princess or maybe a Queen. She smiled at them and got into the car before turning on the ignition. She let out a deep breath before driving out for her home.Sasha pulled over in front of her lonely m
The next day, Sasha was picked up by Vanessa in her white limo and they left for the afternoon party. Gary knocked on his boss office door and entered "Boss, mistress has been picked up by your mother" he reported.Michael was standing beside his desk drawer and was flipping the pages of a document in his hand when he heard Gary's report, he looked at him and nodded before returning his eyes on the papers. Gary turned to walk away then "wait" he heard and turned to face his boss again.Michael walked around his desk and perched on it while still looking at the document "here, send this to her company" he handed the document to Gary who took and went through it.His eyes lit up in surprise when he noticed it was a contract and not just any contract, a contract a lot of other big companies will fight to have "boss, why are we sending this to mistress company?"Gary watched as a rare smile appeared on his boss face, he has been working alongside Michael for like ten years n
A chauffeur walked up to Vanessa later and whispered something to her, her eyes lit up immediately "really? Bring him in" she ordered and the chauffeur left. Vanessa turned to the women sitting on the table "my apologies ladies, apparently Michael has come to pick up his wife" she smiled, she really loves how her son cooperates, just one text message and he is already here, she smiled as her eyes strayed to Stella and her daughter.Sasha on the other hand was shocked, came to pick her up? Since when is he that loving? She thought as she looked around and saw him approaching, dressed in a gray suit and looking very handsome, she wasn't able to see him this morning for he left before she woke up "hello ladies" she heard him saw when he was close enough."What's the matter Michael, Sasha is not the only married woman here, why does she have to be the only one her husband has to pick up?" One of the woman said and the rest laughed."What are you saying? Michael really dot
Sasha got to Michael's car and got in just as he was getting in the driver's seat. She sighed and looked at him as he pulled out of the parking lot "thank you."Michael glanced her way with a furrowed brows "for what?"Sasha smiled, if there is one thing she is good at, is to know when someone helped her and she never hesitate to show her gratitude. It's true he said he did what he did yesterday just to save his face but she knew that if it wasn't for him, she really would have been embarrassed and now, in the presence of everybody, he got Kira to apologize to her "thank you for yesterday, I really appreciate."Michael snorted and rolled his eyes "I said I did it for myself.""I know, but any how, thank you."Michael was speechless, should he say 'you are welcome?' But he couldn't get himself to say it and so remained silent for the rest of the ride. They got home and he went upstairs without her as always. Sasha sighed as she watched him go, should she make dinner? W
Sasha woke up in the middle of night cold, she turned on the bed to see her husband sleeping peacefully and bit her lip, should she go close to him? Don't touch me, her mind reminded her of his second rule and as she thought about it, she realized she can count how many times he had touched her and she? None. But it's so cold, she thought, well he is asleep, he wouldn't notice if she just lie a little closer to him. She took a deep breath and shifted a little closer to him but she was not satisfied.She shifted a little more and could already feel his body warmth but she got greedy, she wants her body to touch his and so shifted again, her back was now touching his ramrod like chest, her head on his hand with her hair close to his face, she stifled her breathing while she waited for him to wake up and when he didn't, she relaxed and closed her eyes.Michael felt something warm on his chest, he frowned when he felt something like hair on his face and his eyes snapped open only
Sasha got a hold on her emotion, she got up, cleared the dishes and dumped every food in the trashcan, she washed the dishes and went upstairs to their room. She got into the bathroom and looked at the purple blue spot on her temple, she sighed and fetched the first aid box but then decided to take a shower first before applying medication on the bruise. When she was done, she dressed up, got her car key and left the house.Immediately she drove off, the black car followed after while making a phone call to make his report. Sasha pulled over at her office and got down from the car, she walked straight into her office, paying no mind to the prying eyes of her workers. She slumped on her office chair and her head rested on the seat with her eyes closed, details of last night playing in her mind, can you live like this Sasha? She asked herself.The door to her office opened and her friends walked in "Sasha, is everything okay?" She heard Janet asked and opened her eye
Sasha pulled over in front of her favorite restaurant, she got down from the car as did her friends, they all walked into the restaurant and a waiter showed them to an empty table, they got seated and he handed them the menu "I didn't know you still eat her Sasha" Agatha was surprised."I love their cooking" was Sasha's reply."Yea, I mean their dishes are delicious I must admit" put in Agnes.They made their orders and ordered for some juice to pass the time while they wait for their food."You got to be kidding me!" Janet suddenly exclaimed."What's wrong?" Her friends all asked."Is my eyes deceiving me or is that really Michael?" Janet asked staring at some group of men seated three tables from theirs.Agnes, Agatha and Marilyn turned immediately to observe the table "oh my heavens it is Michael" exclaimed Agnes.Sasha felt her heart missed a beat at the mention of his name, she stiffened and tried so hard to remember how to breathe, finally she got
HhhhhWhen she got to the table, the men were all looking at her, smiling, except her husband who still had his eyes glued to the table "I knew I didn't see wrong, exactly which man will see a beauty like you and forget in less than a week?" One of the men smiled at her and they all stood up, well, all except her husband "I am Jones Bush and this is my partner in crime Jack Bills, together you have heard about us" the man smiled while patting the shoulder of another man in the same age with him.Sasha smiled and tried to reason what he just said, when her mind finally put two and two together, she gasped "Jack and Jones!""Exactly" The two men smiled "these are our shareholders, Mr Steven and Mr Kent" they introduced the other two men "I was able to recognize you because I was at your wedding, we told Michael here to introduce us when we get to your house but he claimed you were tired and needed rest."Sasha couldn't believe that she is looking at the two men whose contract
“I don’t get it, what would it take you to tell her how you feel?” Sapphire asked the man beside her, staring at the windscreen of his eighteenth birthday car at the young girl with dark brown hair and beautiful hazel eyes. A girl she had known all of her life and has known that her brother was crushing on big time but will never tell her.“I don’t know what you are talking about,” Christopher answered, tearing his gaze away from the girl even though it was so hard to do.Sapphire sighed, shaking her head softly, “this thing they say, like father like son, I think it’s true.”Christopher groaned tiredly, “please don’t start with your lectures about dad and mom relationship, please.”“I only use it because it the truth, I mean, look at you, you have been in love with Cindy for as long as I can remember, but tell her? Hell no,” she shook her head again.“I don’t love her.”“Yeah, keep lying to yourself,” she folded her arms on her chest, “it’s your birthday tomorrow, if you want, I can
“Happy Anniversary,” Michael whispered to Sasha in the ear and she turned to him, staring at the small box he was handing her.“What is this?” she asked with a smile, taking the box from him.“Open it, who else asks what was given to them for anniversary?” Michael rolled his eyes, then kissed her forehead.Sasha chuckled and opened the box, she was surprised to see a key and she looked up at him with a raised eyebrow, “I don’t understand.”“Let’s go,” he smiled and grabbed her hand, leading her out of the house.“Where to?” Sasha asked, getting into the car.“To see your anniversary present, duh,” he laughed softly, getting into the car.They drove for twenty minutes and seeing the neighborhood they were driving through, Sasha frowned. “Are we going over to your parents’ house?”Michael chuckled but said nothing. Another ten minutes drive, they pulled in front of a massive gate. Michael glanced at Sasha and she raised her eyebrow at him. He smiled and turned to the windscreen, in seco
“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Christopher, happy birthday to you,” Everyone chanted as Sasha walked out pushing a cart with a big creamy cake with seven lit candles.Chris was all smiles and Sasha noted that she hadn’t seen him smile so much since they left home over two months ago. And deep inside, she knew the reason and she was happy that she and Michael were able to sort their differences before his birthday came and in a way, she was able to keep her promise of celebrating his birthday as a one big family without compromising anything, nothing could make her any happier.“Alright Chris, make a wish,” Vanessa said and Chris gingerly walked over to the table that holds his big cake, closing his eyes, he blew out the candles.“What did you wish for?” Sasha asked with a smile, ruffling his hair.“I didn’t make a wish,” Chris replied.Everyone frowned at that, “why is that?” Michael asked.“I sent an appreciation prayer,” Chris replied facing every
Two weeks gone by, Sasha knew she has no grievances against Michael anymore, if even asked, she just wants them to be a family again but for some reason, she didn’t want to bring it up and was prepared to wait for him to do so. Her phone’s ringtone disrupted her thinking and she picked it from her desk, seeing the caller, she smiled and answered the call.“Sasha, how are you?” her voice drifted out from the phone.“I’m okay, Sharon and you?” Sasha asked.“I’m good. Are you in your office?”“Yes, why?”“I’m close by; you think we can grab lunch together?”“Definitely.”“Okay, I will wait for you at the restaurant.”“I will be there in five,” she answered and hung up the call. She closed the file she was supposed to be working on but instead was thinking about Michael and the time they spent in Paris. She grabbed her handbag and was out of the office in no time, bumping into Agatha. “Sorry,” she grinned, “what’s up?”Agatha glared at her while rubbing her nose, “I know you want to meet
Michael entered the restaurant where he hoped to see Sasha according to her text message. He scanned the room and saw her sitting and sipping a glass of what appeared to be Robert Mondavi, he smiled and walked up to her. “Excuse me ma’am, can I join you?”She glanced up at him and smiled, “I’m sorry but I’m waiting for someone.”“Is that so, could it be your husband?”“No, just some douche-bag that wants to have lunch with me,” she grinned.Michael placed a hand on his chest, feigning hurt. “I’m sure if you give him time that you will discover that he is not a douche-bag.”“Oh really, you must be a Good Samaritan if you are speaking well of him without even knowing him,” she placed her hand under her chin and stared up at him, a smile playing on her lips.Michael couldn’t help but notice how angelic she looked in her casual white top and blue jeans, her platinum wavy hair was falling down her shoulders like waterfall and he was gripped by the urge to lean down and kiss her, but instea
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
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
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
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’
