Fernandez arrived at Andrew's office looking very worried. "You look worried, what's going on?" Andrew asked. Andrew had just finished speaking with his girlfriend on the phone when Fernandez walked in. She has been away for her master's degree program in Sweden. Now she called to tell Andrew that she was coming back home and that made him excited. "Laura, Laura seems to be digging her claws deep into my skin for whatever reason she thinks she has" Fernandez said angrilyShe was the one that destroyed us, not me, she threw what we had away to the lagoon. I have told her a million times that it's over between us, yet she doesn't want to leave my life alone. She keeps trying to scheme her way back into my life. Now she has taken to blackmailing me, she's blackmailing me through one of her stupid friends with whatever stupid information she claims to have about Amelia" he said and rubbed his forehead. "She's doing that?" Andrew arched his eyebrow "Why? What for? I thought she had
Amelia stretched and rubbed her eyes, she took her phone and turned off the alarm. She looked at the time and sighed, 'One more hour to go' she thought to herself. She reminisced about the dream she just had for a few minutes, her face had the expression of both hurt and pleasure. She smiled to herself, excited that Fernandez came to get her and the babies, and the entire family welcomed them with great joy and a private moment with Fernandez brought great peace to her. She had a dreamy face thinking about the hugs, kisses, caressing and magical touch from Fernandez. She had sincerely wished the moment didn't end. She sat on her bed thinking of what could be going on with Fernandez, 'Does he ever think of me or was I just one out of his numerous conquests?'The smile on her face suddenly fades away as she thinks of the possibility that Fernandez might not care about her. "I guess I let myself go too cheaply, who would want to settle for a cheap, poor girl like myself? He looks
"Calm down Rosa, bring your voice down. In as much as he's an animal, I don't want people to hear what he did, for my aunt's sake" she saidRosa batted her eyelid several times in shock "Your aunt is a saint now?" she asked in a high-pitched tone. "I haven't said so, all I'm saying is that they are still family regardless. No matter how terrible your family is, you can't deny them" she asserted. "Hmm, you are right though, I wish they see and treat you the way you treat them. You are such an angel Amelia. It's only people like your aunt and her husband who will treat a beautiful soul like you the way they do. They are bitter and spiteful, users" Rosa spat. "Thanks, Rosa, you know whenever I get mistreated by my aunt or her husband, I don't feel too bad about it because I know you are always here for me," Amelia said and hugged her. "I will always be here for you my darling" she hugged Amelia too "So when can we go and see Mrs Tino this weekend?" Rosa asked "Yes, we will, I will
The next day, after work, Fernandez arrived at the location a few minutes earlier than the stipulated time.He scanned around to be sure of where he was, he sat by the window where he could see whoever was walking into the premisesHe waited for another minute after settling before ordering a drink. He sent a text to the number informing the person that he was already at the location. He didn't get any response until after fifteen minutes. The person texted "What are you putting on"Fernandez scanned around again before replying "A black Tshirt, black leather jacket, black jeans and a black Face cap" "Hmm, would it be safe to call you Mr black?" the sender asked"No, just call me Fernandez," he replied, still looking around. "Alright, Fernandez, I'm very close to you. I just want to make a quick stop and pick up something. I'll be with you shortly" the sender replied. Fernandez became a little uncomfortable after waiting for another hour without any sign of the stranger anywhere.
Amelia staggered and was going to fall face down, her heart began to race very fast. She was terrified that her babies would be hurt should she fall. She struggled to steady her step when someone quickly reached her and caught her from behind and she gasped. Amelia turned to see who had saved her and to her greatest bewilderment, it was Lyon. She batted her eyelid to be sure of who had saved her"Lyon?" she called"Hi Amelia, how are you? I'm sorry that happened" he said with a look of sincere care and she nodded. She felt her babies kick and she scrunched her face and rubbed her belly gently and stylishly"Are you okay, why is your face like that?" Lyon asked in surprise"Yep, I'm good, it's nothing. I'm only reacting to the strain on my wrist, that's all" she fibbed"Thank you, Lyon, thank you for reaching me and preventing the accident," Amelia said thankfully. "I don't know who pushed me, but I think it was done on purpose, the push was deliberate, I felt the person's hands o
Fernandez got to his parent's house and was happy to see his mum again"Hello my baby" Mrs Tiguan said as she sighted her son from where she was. "Hello mum, good to have you back," he said as he went into his mother's arm"How are you, look at you, you've changed in these past few days," she said as she disengaged from the hug"Come on mum, what do you mean?" Fernandez asked with a little frown"You don't look like you've been eating at all," she said and Fernandez grimaced"Urgh! I've been eating mum, it's just the stress of having to prepare for meetings every day, strategising on new projects and all of that" Fernandez said. "Mmm, I still think you haven't been feeding well and the reason is that no one is here to follow up on you I know how you can be with food, you barely ever eat anything and when you do, you just break it like a bird" Mrs Tiguan mocked and Fernandez frowned again. "Really mum? I always do my best to eat my food when I can, work most times gets in my way an
"Amelia, Amelia hold up" Tiffany called but Amelia didn't stop. They ran after her until they caught up with her at the school gate"Amelia" Tiffany called as she spun her around "What's going on?" she asked "Please, I just want to be left alone, I need to go" she said amidst tears"Can you calm down Amelia, you are too upset, we can't leave you alone, come on. We know Sia can be silly, you don't have to leave just like that. Remember we have stuff to do together today, you can't leave" Magdalene said "Please guys, I don't think I can be part of that today, I just want to get away from here," Amelia said as she wiped the tears off her face"You can't keep running off each time that doll provokes you, she will keep taunting you," Tiffany said. "What exactly does she know that she's trying to blackmail you with?" Magdalene asked"Um… um… I don't know" Amelia shrugged and stuttered"Are you sure Amelia? I saw how uncomfortable you were when she threatened to reveal what she knows ab
Fernandez stood for a while watching the stranger from his office, after a few minutes he called his secretary"Send him in" he had his two hands in his pants. Fernandez had a look of displeasure displaying on his face as the stranger walked into his office. He extended his hand for a shake, however, Fernandez threw him a look of disdain"Who are you and what do you want?" Fernandez asked with a stern voice and the man quickly withdrew his handHe then tried to sit "I haven't asked you to sit, I only asked who the heck you are and what are you doing in my company" Fernandez asked with gritted teethHis face turned red as the man kept mute and just looked at Fernandez with an annoying smirk"Listen Mr, if you don't have anything important, please get yourself out of here before I call security"Hmm-hmm" he cleared his throat and pulled out a chair to sit when Fernandez slapped the table and he was startled"You must think I'm as jobless as you are," Fernandez said and quickly scoop
