After Micheal left Crystal's office, he rushed to the hospital were he had earlier dropped Lillian off for the DNA test. He was surprised to see that they were already done with the test.
"Where is the test result?" he demanded
Instead of handing over the result Lillian walked up to him and pressed her body to his while trailing her hand over his chest "easy handsome... don't get all worked up for nothing" she said in what she thought was a seductive tone.
Micheal shoved her hard and she almost fell to the floor "the result" he demanded again, this time with a dangerous look on his face.
Lillian frowned frustrated. What was even wrong with this man? Did he think his girlfriend was better than her?. She handed him the result and walked towards her chair with confidence.
As Micheal skimmed through the papers, he felt his world crumble. The little chance he thoug

*******"Aren't we there yet?" Michael asked again. He was restless. Being away from Crystal had turned him into a mess. He even snapped at his workers daily for no single reason at all. He was sure Crystal wasn't as half affected as he was.The journey he had embarked on couldn't be put off anymore, lest he did something he would regret. He vowed to do anything humanly and morally possible to get the love of his life back."This is the place sir" his driver parked in front of a well fenced bungalow."That will be all for now. I will call you when I am done" Michael told him as he alighted the carThe house was really beautiful. The fence hid a lot of its beauty. As he rang the doorbell, he prayed for Gods Favour.Mrs Jason was busy baking Crystal's favourite cake when the doorbell rang.

*******"Michael am so sorry. I know I should have been beside you in such a trying moment but I wasn't. I acted foolishly without thinking. I was blinded by anger. I know that is not enough reason but please forgive me" she spoke through her tears"Baby there's nothing to forgive you for. You did what anyone in your shoes would do. If I didn't live such a rotten life in the past we wouldn't have been in this situation now""Michael the past is past. It shouldn't have determined my actions towards you" she protested"How about we forget what has happened and forgive each other?" Michael suggested smiling"Sounds nice to me" she kissed him briefly "I love you.... don't ever forget that" she told him after she broke the kiss"I love you too Crystal... So so much" he hesitated and the put his hands into his pocket to retrieve a small red box"Babe I k

Crystal felt a little fluttering in her stomach and tried to she keep her face as neutral as possible "good afternoon sir, how can I help you?""Please drop the formality. Its just Michael to you and I brought you lunch" he was still smilingWhat's with this man? dosen't he ever give up or was he too blind to see the handwriting on the wall. "oh thanks but am not hungry. Am too busy right now" she kept her eyes on the screen in front of her."I appreciate your zeal. But I am the boss and I'm saying we take off sometime to eat. Just 30 minutes" he tried to convince her"I'm really sorry but as you can see I have a lot of work to do. I'm actually behind schedule" Crystal focused intently on her laptop, she didn't want to feel guilty. Looking at him will make feel like she was doing something wrong by saying no"Is it so bad that I want to

The alarm gave a loud shrilling sound. Crystal groaned and burrowed further under the covers grumbling something about getting her morning sleep only for her to sit up straight some minutes later..Oh crap!She had forgotten that today was the day of her project defence. She suddenly felt very nervous. After saying a short prayer, she scrambled out of the bed and hopped into the bathroom for a quick shower.She hurriedly dressed in a light purple suit with black flats, her braids were held up in the middle of her head and her make up lightly done. Satisfiedwith her appearance, she hurried out and hailed a taxi giving him directions to the campus.Her palms were already sweaty by the time she got to school and she tried very hard to get herself together as she made her way over to the waiting room besides the hall that was to be used for the defence.As soon as her best friend kel

******Crystal felt a pang of sadness as she packed the stuffs in her room into the box she will be travelling with. She was going home today and although she was happy to finally become a graduate, she was still sad at leaving because she would really miss her room and the people around her but she consoled herself at the thought that it was part of life to move from one stage to another.She was to be travelling with Kelly that morning as they were both going to Lagos although they lived in different parts of the city. She lived in Ikoyi Lagos while her best friend lived in Victoria Island Lagos which means they will still get to see each other often.The two months following her defence had come and gone, results were out and certificates had been issued. Crystal made a CGPA of 4.31 a bit higher than her best friend who made a CGPA of 4.0. As she entered the bathroom she couldn't help but feel that so far things had gone really well

******Two weeks had passed since Crystal came home and she was still confused about what to do. She was very eager to become the editor she has always wanted to be but she knew that the extra knowledge she would get during her editing program was also important.She decided to go on her knees and say a short prayer for guidance."Father lord, I thank you for your grace and mercy on my life. Thank you for being faithful even in the face of my unfaithfulness. Lord I pray that you help me and guide me through every step of my life, help me to know what to do and the right place to go, Amen".After saying this prayer, she felt like she knew exactly what to do and wondered why she kept from praying for guidance till now. With what to do on her mind, she went downstairs to help her mum make dinner.After dinner she faced her parents "dad, mum I have thought very carefully about my next line of action

*******The intruder walked inside proudly and settled down on a chair before answering him "isn't it obvious? I'm here to introduce you to your son" she pointed at the two years old boy that held her hand"What?" they both shouted but the lady was not done with them"Most importantly I'm here to claim what is mine" she looked pointedly at MichealCrystal snorted loudly. This lady was really crazy to think that Micheal belong to her. Crystal knew she could handle a crazy woman but a child was a whole new scenario that she wasn't sure she could handle. How could he do this to her?"You have a son?" she glared at himMicheal felt his heart squeeze at the pain in her voice. He didn't want to be the reason for her pain "baby please... I don't know what she's talking about" he pleaded"But you know her?" she asked hoping he would say no

*******Soon they fell into a particular rhythm. They would have lunch together at the office, go on dates on friday nights and go to church together on Sundays. Six months had already passed been since their first date and Crystal never regretted going on that date with him.She was crazily in love with him and she believed he loved her too. He was the best boyfriend anyone could ask for and her life couldn't be more perfect.What exactly did I do to deserve him... She wondered as her eyes landed on the recent bouquet of roses he got her. He knew she loved flowers so he sent them regularly.Work had even started to get more interesting due to a certain someone. Glancing at the clock, she realized it was already noon. She had better be on her way."Hi babe" she entered his officeMichael smiled. He immediately dropped the file he was holding and came around his desk to pec

********Crystal was very nervous and on edge the whole week. She hoped the week would pass by slower. She really didn’t know how to face Michael. She purposely avoided him throughout the week and now it was Friday.As crystal dragged herself to work, she imagined different scenarios of how her date would go. None of the scenes looked appealing to her. She busied herself throughout the day and left work earlier than usual. They had agreed he would pick her up by 7pm and at exactly the said time, the doorbell rangCrystal cleaned her sweaty palms and checked the mirror again before hurrying to the door. She was dressed in a knee length body hugging black gown with v-cutting at the back. She wore gold heels to match her gold clutch with her braids held up in a ponytail. She applied mascara and eyeliner to highlight her already pretty eyes then she finished off her look with a touch of her favourite dark red lipstick. Her gown was

********With all the wedding preparations, Crystal didn't know when the month sped by. The wedding was already here. Crystal advised her friend to get enough rest promising to wake her up bright and early the next day. True to her word, she woke Kelly up as early as five am so they could say their prayers together and then make sure everything was in place.When the make-up artist arrived, crystal shooed Kelly to her room to get ready. By 10am they were already at the church. With the way Kelly was griping her hand she was sure she would end up with blisters."Crys am nervous'' Kelly was still squeezing her hand'Hey...its okay to be nervous. Infact I would be surprised if you weren't nervous. When you get in there just focus on the face of your man, trust me every other face would drift away" crystal assured her"Thank you for everything... Your the best friend anyone could ask for" tears th

********Damn this feelings.... Crystal thought as she got ready for work. A few weeks had gone since Michael asked her to lunch. She found herself thinking about him more than normal. Even though she wanted to be really close to him, she resolved to do the opposite. She didn't want to go through the heartbreak that was bound to happen if they entered a relationship. Like they say 'once a player; always a player. She arrived the office about ten minutes late and quickly got on with the days activities. Soon Kelly popped in "Hi girl" she greeted cheerily settling herself on one of the chairs. Crystal looked at her friend closely. It seemed as if she had this glow around her "What's with the radiant look this morning" she asked her "Its obvious isn't it?" Kelly smiled "What is obvious?" Crystal looked confused "OMG... Crystal he proposed... we ar
