Andrew smiled wryly. He coughed a little and then smiled again."What do you mean by my name on the Teddy bear?" He coughed again, "I don't remember giving your wife a teddy bear"William nodded, "But the teddy bear in her room has everything you described it to be and it even has your name on it. Why?*Andrew shrugged, "Maybe it's a coincidence. I wouldn't know"While both men stood to speak in the hallway, Sophia strolled past, she was headed to her room. She had her head hanging low as she dragged her feet across the carpeted floor, peeling off the scales of glue on her palms. Natalie had asked her to help design her room and she was on her way back when… "Come over here, Sophia!"A voice called her.Sophia lifted her face to see William and Andrew standing together, they were both inches apart. Sophia felt her muscles tense up. What was going on?Immediately, she started walking as she lifted one foot in front of the other. She came close to them and stood beside her husband."Y
Sophia was about to tell her sister about the mysterious sender when she came to her senses. She shook her head in disagreement with her silent thoughts."Don't… " she whispered to herself."What's that?" Natalie asked as she took her ear closer to her sister's mouth. Sophia cleared her throat, "Nothing!"Natalie straightened her back and asked again."No o!" Sophia started to walk away fast. Before her sister could say another word, Sophia had reached her room and was already closing the door behind her.Natalie got to her step sister's room as she started to knock."What's so bad about telling me who gave that to you?" She knocked a few times," Come on. I'd love to listen to who it was"Sophia had stopped talking as she tiptoed into her bathroom, got in and locked the door behind her again. She went to the corner of her bathtub, folded herself in and turned the tap on. Hopefully, the noise of water rushing would send Natalie away.Sophia waited for a while and then went out to chec
Natalie kept asking him questions until Andrew got upset."Can you please stop talking?" He said with a raised hand in her face. "I need to think please"Natalie kept mute for a while and then smiled at him."I see you're not in a good mood. It's okay, how about I keep quiet and watch you do your thing?"Andrew nodded and moved away. He could not take it anymore. Natalie had talked the curiosity to see Sophia out of his system. Natalie smiled. She had just found herself a lover and she was not going to let him go. She followed him immediately. They took a few steps away from the door when Sophia opened it.Just then, her eyes caught Natalie and Andrew walking away together, kind of like they were already getting along.Sophia got back into her room as she went back to the bathroom. She picked up the shower head as she washed her face again. It wasn't easy what she was facing. She didn't want to think about it so much. "Leave it alone Sophia. You're a married woman for goodness sake.
Natalie stepped inside further. She had her eyes on her sister and from there, her eyes flickered from her step sister to the gorgeous man she respected, who was on the ground.Sophia watched her step sister's jaw drop."What is Andrew doing on the floor?"Andrew quickly got on his feet. He bent over to dust his knees, both women watched as he did that and when he was done, he stood beside Sophia."I'm sorry about what you saw. You must have misunderstood the situation. I saw a stain on the floor and bent over to clean it. Nothing more" Natalie held a doubtful face as she watched him explain more.She waited till he was done talking then, she smiled at him and said she understood.Sophia didn't believe it. There was no way on earth Natalie took things on face value. She was probably lying."Thank you for understanding. I am grateful" Andrew said with a bow, he turned to leave. When he got to the door, he waved at Sophia and disappeared. When he had completely left, Natalie moved her
Sophia froze as she saw her husband's face and heard his voice. She blinked severally, her head wondering what she could say to her husband, how would she get her out of that situation?"William, I can assure you, it is not what you think. I was only answering what my sister here," she pointed to Natalie before continuing, "had said to me. That's all"William swallowed hard. She could see his Adam's apple moving. He turned to face Natalie, his expression stern, "what were you saying to my wife about my cousin?"He cleared his throat, "I'm interested in knowing what could have made her yell at you that way"Natalie shifted her gaze to her step sister as she opened her mouth to speak.She slurred her words, making 'uhm' and 'oh' in between her sentences.Sophia was shaking her head while she muffled silent words. Natalie squinted as she tried to make sense out of them when William turned back to see what she was looking at."Speak!" He commanded her. Natalie got frightened as her body j
Sophia raised her face as she pushed herself away from underneath his balls.William shifted backwards a little."Is there a problem?" Her tingly voice squeaked while she tried to catch her breath. Sophia could still feel the presence of William's groin on her throat, clamping at the tiny dangling thing just above her passageway.She sighed."Your sister is here in my house. Right?"William spoke."Yes!" She answered back just as immediately as she heard the question.Was there something more to it?"Your step sister is close to you and I like that. However…" his voice stopped abruptly as he bent down to her level and grabbed her neck. ".. if I hear you telling her anything crappy about me, I'm sure you know what I can do"Sophia had not expected the sudden move and pressure on her neck. They were just having a good time a few seconds ago. She placed her hand in his, trying to pull him and his grip from her neck. The choke hold was massive."Please stop.." she managed to say. Her fa
Andrew showed his face as he opened the door a little. He flashed a smile at Sophia's direction before realizing she had company. Sophia wiped her eyes as she saw him. Natalie adjusting her hair and pyjamas as she saw him too. She flashed a smile his way but he barely noticed. "Oh. You have someone with you" he said with a flat tone. Sophia nodded. Andrew pushed the door a little more, fully entering her room.".. I'm sorry for interrupting but I needed to see you. Do you have a few minutes to spare? I just need to say a few things, please?" His bright eyes sparkled while he spoke. Sophia turned to look at her step sister. She looked at her as though she needed permission. Natalie nodded."Excuse me, Natalie, will you?"Natalie nodded. Sophia nodded back as she pushed herself out of bed. Launching her body towards where Andrew stood. When she stood before him, she lifted her face to him with a smile, "What's up?"Andrew led her out the door, "outside would be better, don't you think
Sophia sighed when she realized that she was not going to get caught. It was the maid who was coming for her normal routine check of cleaning. She was standing by the hallway with a mop and a vacuum cleaner.She bowed to greet Andrew and her, "Good morning Madam, good morning Master"They greeted her back, smiling and relieved. She got closer to them, dragging the equipment behind her. "Madam?"Sophia responded with a nod and a little 'uhmm' sound."Do you mind me cleaning your room? I'm done with the other rooms. I'd like to clean yours next. May I?"Sophia nodded. It had been a while she had a maid in her room, besides, the room was getting a little dirty too. But she didn't want to stop her conversation with Andrew. "Sure, why not? Sophia turned to the door and pushed it open."There you go!" She said nicely. The maid thanked her again before going in. Andrew smiled, "You really should go in with her. This maid is new and you have to be careful with her, so she doesn't misplace
