“Hello, Rita.” Naomi greeted her brother’s receptionist. Rita was almost the same age as Naomi but a little taller than Naomi.
“Naomi, it’s been a while. How are you?” She asked with a smile.
“Fine and you?”
“I’m good too. Luis will be very hap
Naomi curled up on the white sofa in the living room. She was already in her nightwear and her laptop was balanced on her lap. She was going through the pictures from the photoshoot she did earlier today.She had to give her opinion on them and decide which one she liked best which will be considered by the Board of Zick Cosmetics.Zick cosmetics was a popular cosmetic company in California; they recently signed a deal with Naomi to be their Brand Ambassador and Influencer.
Naomi had been anxious all day, She barely had any sleep last night, She could not help but think about today. Not only would she be seeing Ryan, but he would also be spending the weekend with her, in her apartment.Luckily for Naomi, Fridays’ wasn’t really much of a busy day for her. By 1 pm, she was through with everything she had on her to-do list including the meeting she thought was going to last longer so she had the rest of the day to herself to prepare for Ryan’s arrival.
As soon as they approached her car, Naomi assisted Ryan in placing his luggage in the trunk of the car. She was on her way to the driver’s seat when she noticed Ryan beside her; He opened the door for her.She chuckled, “You know you didn't have to?”He shrugged with a smile.She smile
Naomi had the best sleep she has ever had in awhile. With Ryan’s hand around her waist, she felt like she belonged to him, She felt like home.Naomi slowly opened her eyes, she panicked as soon as she noticed she was the only one on the bed; Ryan was nowhere to be found beside her.She felt at ease as soon as she sighted a note with a rose on top, placed on her nightstand. She wrapped the white blanket around her naked body and reached for the note and rose.
“What do you want for dinner? I feel like having Pizza along with a cold drink. Is that okay with you?” She asked him before swiping her key card to open the door.“Sure, that’s fine.” He assured, walking into her apartment.Naomi reached for her phone in her purse, dialled a pizza shop and ordered for three boxes.
As soon as those words left Luis’s mouth, Naomi went pale. She didn’t want to believe what her brother just said about Ryan.With a shocked expression, she looked at her brother who was standing opposite her, his eyes were red and she could see his chest rising and falling, showing how angry he was.Reluctantly She turned to Ryan and Pleaded with a teary voice. “Please tell me it’s not true.”

“I can’t believe this is truly happening, ” Sarah said with tear-filled eyes as she adjusted her son’s bow tie. They were standing by the Alter.Christopher smiled, “Mom, we had an agreement. You promised me that you were not going to cry.”She chuckled, “I’m trying not to. This is just a beautiful dream come true. Your father and I have always wanted you to settle down and have a happy family of your own and now it’s all
Christopher woke up because he felt the need to use the bathroom. The space beside him was empty, Naomi was nowhere to be found.He made his way to the bathroom, she wasn’t there so he did his business and washed his hands.Without bothering to put on a shirt, he walked out of the bedroom in search of Naomi. He stopped by the kids’ room, she was not there so he decided to check the living room and kitchen.
Evening Time...........Naomi’s point of view.
Christopher Ryan Smith’s POVIt was hard for me to fall asleep last night because of anxiety. I’ve spent days planning for today and I hope everything goes as planned. Naomi is the best thing that has ever happened to me, she’s the sweetest person on earth and I love her so much that I cannot imagine not spending the rest of my life without her.
“So buddy, I hope you had fun at your party?” Christopher asked a sleepy Tyler as he put on his nightwear for him. He and Zoe were exhausted from the day’s activities; they had so much fun.“Yes Daddy, Sissy and I had so much fun and we made new friends too.” He replied in a sleepy voice.“I’m glad you guys enjoyed yourselves.” Christopher connected his hands with Tyler's and led him to his bed. Zoe was already on her side of t
Christopher opened his eyes and saw that Naomi was nowhere to be found beside him.Yesterday was a fun-filled day for four of them; they visited exciting places in the city. Tyler and Zoe slept off in the car so as soon as they got home, Chris and Naomi put them to bed before going to their bedroom to call it a night.Christopher smiled as soon as he sighted Naomi standing by the window, she was deep in thought and had a sad smile on her lips.
Naomi looked into his eyes and saw the desire in them, she had no doubt she had the same desire in her eyes.For four years, she dreamt about him; how it would be like to be in his arms again and how it would be like having him in her. She wanted him so bad that she couldn’t refuse his offer.Instead of replying with words, she kissed him. Chris returned the kiss with the same passion.
“Sweetheart, wake up we are about to land, ” Christopher whispered in her ear.She reluctantly opened her eyes, Chris kissed her forehead and buckled her up. He could see she still wanted to sleep. He smiled, he couldn’t wait for her to meet Tyler.They finally landed, their luggage was transferred to the car and they got in too. The trio occupied the backseat with Zoe in the middle, munching on a bag of chips.
