SAVANNAH After the call with Levi ended, I tried to quickly wipe the tears from my face with the sleeve of my dress before going in search of Roman. Levi's words deeply hurt him, and truthfully, I couldn't hold it against him, as I too would have experienced the same pain.Imagine someone telling me that the family I have known all my life and grew up with wasn't my family. It's possible that I'm the outcome of a romantic affair. I was on the verge of losing my mind, engulfed in anger, and vanishing from the world. I wanted to console Roman also, so I couldn't tell him anything about what Levi had said to me. Roman was getting hurt because of me, and that was the truth. Levi simply wants our relationship to end, and then he wants me to marry him. After that, Roman will no longer be hurt, and he won't have to endure suffering simply because he loves me. I would never forgive myself if anything happened to him just because he is holding on to me. However, how was I expected to let go
SAVANNAHWhen I got into the kitchen, everywhere smelt like pasta. "Oh no, baby, you didn't," I pouted, and Roman removed the apron from his neck before flashing me a smile. Where was the man who had cried like a baby a few minutes ago?"I made something for you to apologise for cancelling our date oday." He passed me the plate of pasta, and I smiled before taking one bite.My eyes widened, and I took another bite and then another before looking up at him. "Have I ever told you that you are a wonderful cook?" I asked, holding a thumbs up, and he laughed."I own a restaurant, Savannah; of course, I can cook." He said the obvious, and I mouthed, "Oh," before the two of us laughed.He placed a bottle of wine and two glasses on the table. "What's the occasion?" With my mouth full, I asked."I have the most beautiful woman in the world in my life; of course, every day calls for a celebration." He was too effective with his words. He made me blush easily, and sometimes I find it hard to bel
SAVANNAHMy name was a fine work of art on his lips, and just then, his body jerked forward, filling my mouth with his cum. I did the craziest thing while staring at him; I swallowed it and looked up at him."Holy fuck, Savannah, that was sexy as fuck," he whispered, and I smiled up at him smugly and got up from the ground with his help.He dropped me on his lap, so I was straddling him before he kissed me passionately. We went at it for several minutes, and after, I leaned back, both of us breathing harshly, catching our breath. I kissed him lightly one more time on his lips. "I want to make love to you on this sofa," he confessed while staring at me. I silenced him with a kiss."What's stopping you from doing just that?" I whispered, and he grounded his erection down on my core,making me gasp and tear my mouth from his, groaning as I threw my head back, intense pleasure vibrating through my veins."Roman, I swear I can never get enough of you." My words seemed to ignite him, and his
SAVANNAH"Welcome to Rine's palace. My name is Savannah, and I will be your waitress for today. What would you like to order?" I smiled so brightly as I handed the two men, who had just walked into their respective menus."Oh Savannah, my name is Robert, and this is my friend Wayne." The man I was standing in front of introduced himself to me. Although it wasn't needed, some customers still did the unbelievable, and I couldn't be rude to them no matter what, so I smiled at him."Nice to meet you, sirs. Can I take your orders now?" I asked, and they nodded. The two of them ordered a steak, some salad, and some rice along with it. I wrote them down quickly and then smiled again. "Your food will be here in ten minutes," I announced."Thank you, Savannah. When did you start working here?" Another question was thrown my way, and I almost grumbled, couldn't a girl do her job in peace?"It's been close to a year, sir," I responded, and he nodded. "May I bring you two anything to drink, or th
SAVANNAHWhen I opened my eyes, I wanted everything that had happened some hours earlier to be a joke, but it wasn't. I was in the familiar setting, but just in a different room. This was the hospital, and I must have passed out earlier after hearing the most shocking news of my life."You are awake, oh, thank God." I turned to my side when I heard the voice. It was Roman, and he was wearing a frown as he held my hand."What are you doing here? How did you?" I began to ask as I tried to get up from the bed, but he shut me up immediately. "You shouldn't talk too much or try to get up; you passed out from shock." He explained and helped me get back in bed.I nodded because there was no use arguing with him; I would never win. "How did you know that I was here?" I asked him"I didn't see you at work, so I asked Joshua. He informed me that you were receiving constant calls from Cory. I suspected this could be related to Sarah, as she was scheduled to babysit her today." When I got to the
SAVANNAH'S POV"Let's end this relationship" Levi's words were like a sharp knife that pierced my soul from many angles causing me to feel pain all over my body"I...I don't understand, did I do something?" I managed to say as I tried to hold onto his hand, he pulled away from my touch as if I were a poisonous plant and stepped back."I don't have to explain myself to you, this is what I want," He said, not a hint of remorse or pity in his voice. Tears began to roll down my face as I began to understand the extent of the issue at hand.I struggled to find my voice as I asked him, "Is...Is there someone else?""No" His reply was quick and cold. I expected more but it never came. "Levi, please don't do this to me, don't do this to us" I pleaded as I fell to my knees in front of him."There is no us Savannah" My mouth dropped open at his choice of words. They were delivered with a harshness that shattered my heart into countless fragments, I could not bring myself to think that Levi, who
SAVANNAH'S POV"I'm afraid that your daughter has leukemia Mrs Andrews" As soon as the doctor relayed this shocking news, my mouth dropped and my eyes widened."My daughter has leu...leukemia?" I struggled to speak, it was as if the air had left my lungs. The doctor's words hit me like a force.My daughter, whom I had to struggle to birth and raise alone, had a terminal illness. It felt like the ground had been pulled from beneath me. This wasn't part of the plan I had made years ago when I decided to have her."Mrs Andrews"My precious baby, I remember the first day she came into this world, a tiny bundle of hope and dreams. I vividly recalled the long hours of labor, the excruciating pain, and the overwhelming relief when the midwife finally placed her delicate body in my arms."Mrs Andrews, can you hear me?"I fought so much and worked so hard to settle the mounting hospital bills, taking on extra jobs just to put food on the table for my daughter despite being postpartum. Every ou
SAVANNAH'S POV"Levi?"The shock of seeing him there was palpable, and the haunting memories flooded my mind the minute our eyes met. It was a sight that stirred up emotions I had desperately tried to bury.Levi suddenly cut in with a sly grin on his face, it was not the kind of emotion I had wanted on his face when we met again.I wanted revenge then and I still want it now. I wanted to have reached my dream and had enough money but look at me. I was the exact opposite of everything I wanted. I was a nobody, I didn't have any money and my daughter's health was on a shaky foundation.Even now, Levi still had enough and was living fine, if I even got this job, he would be my boss. "Fate brought us back together" Was the first thing he said Fate brought us together? I wanted to scoff and walk out because I would rather sell my soul to the devil than smile with this man. But I needed the job so I remained composed."We meet again" My response was short enough to make me keep my sanity
