I shake my head, “for today, it will just be one coffee and one bagel”, she gives me the questioning look but she doesn’t pry, very professional of her. I grab my coffee and bagel and head back to the office; I really needed a change of scenario. Changing environments help me get energized; sometimes if I’m too busy and I can’t leave the building, just looking outside down at the busy streets will do justice for me.

I spot Amelia as she comes towards me, she’s already noticed me, so I can’t avoid her. “Hello” I say for polite sake, “hey, how are you?”; did Amelia just greet me and did she just ask how I’m faring.

“Sorry did you just respond to me?” I ask, she smiles, “how are you”. “Oh, I’m good. How are you?” I ask; this is really awkward, I’m really trying my best to not show how uncomfortable I am.

“I’m good too; I’ve missed you” she says smiling; I somewhat feel like this is a trap, like she’s trying to set me up. I’m not saying that she’s a horrible person; I’m only expressing ho

    “And you don’t?” I ask, “I do, maybe that’s why we’re a perfect match” he says jokingly. I playfully roll my eyes at him. My mom and the others are yet to arrive; I know mom would be here on or before 5pm.I wonder where Tela could be, there nothing mum hates more than when people arrive late; Tela and Jamie round definitely get grilled if they show up late.One of the staff offers Nek and I wine, “I don’t drink” we say in unison, the staff nods, “what would you like instead”. “Water” Nek says; “and you ma’am?”, “ I’ll have apple juice, thank you”.The staff excuses herself; “You..” Nek says, but he’s cut off by Tela who stepped in, followers closely by Jamie. I excitedly hug Tela; while Nek and Hamie exchange manly handshakes. I move to hug Jamie and Tela moves to hug Nek, “I really thought you both were going to be late” I sayTela laughs, “not at all; I don’t want to get in trouble”. Jamie and Nek look lost: they wouldn’t understand unless they knew my mother well. “Has mum arrived

    We have dinner and retire to our individual rooms for the night. I freshen up and head to bed immediately feeling tired after a long day. I wake up at 7am an hour later than I usually wake up; I rush into the bathroom, take a quick shower and go through my wardrobe. I plan on wearing a professional outfit that is comfortable and stylish for the day. After a moment of deliberation I decide on a ficial pink blouse that is appropriate for the workplace and pair it with a tailored skirt. I also add a blazer for warmth and to complete the look. Feeling a bit fashionable I decide to accessorize with a watch, simple jewelry, and a handbag that is appropriate for the office. For my shoes, choose a pair of black heels that complements my outfit. Feeling satisfied with with the way I look, I style my hair and apply makeup that is natural-looking. I look very professional today, Nek would be very surprised with my look for tge day.My watch states that it’s 8pm; I grab my things and rush do

    The meeting comes to an end 30 minutes before the event begins; Nek excuses himself and heads downstairs. I continue to organize his schedule, while he’s gone.I don’t feel nervous about the event; I’ve been to many events like this, perks of being Nek’s personal secretary. The only part that makes me anxious is that I would not be only introduced as his personal secretary but also as his wife.I’ve attended many events as his secretary; but only one as his wife. To top it all i have to make an entrance all by myself, without Nek by my side; it’s pretty inconvenient.I’m excited but nervous; my nervousness makes me feel like hiding out, but that wouldn’t have a nice effect on Neks reputation so I have to show up. I powder my face; my make up still looks really nice, I head downstairs to look for Cete.If he hasn’t gone; we’d be able to go together, not at the same time but at least we would be able to walk towards the hall together and I’m sure chatting with him would calm my nerves.

    I carefully slip out of the room hoping no one would notice my exit. The bodyguard assigned to me; carefully follows me, camouflaging in the background. I walk towards the car; the driver rushes down and opens the car door before I get there, “thank you” I say smiling.I enter the car, the body guard in charge of me closes the door behind me and stand next to the car door. I relax the chair and rest; I was feeling tired and uncomfortable, so I decided to take a nap. It’s better for me to sleep while I wait for Nek to arrive; who knows he could spend another hour or four there, I think to myself. The driver hands me a blanket from the car compartment, “thank you” I say. I snuggle into the blanket and before I know it, I fall deep asleep.“Taina”, someone gently shakes me, “yeah” I mumble while still sleeping. “Taina” the person shakes me again, this time it’s less gentle than the first time, “yeah” I sleepilky mumble; “we’re home” the person announces.“That’s great” i sleepily say an

    In the spur of the moment I throw my arms around him, embracing him in a hug. At first he remains stiff, but then he returns the hug throwing his arms around me; “thank you” I softly say, “you’re welcome”.I’m the first to break the hug, “I’m hungry” I say, Nek chuckles and follows closely behind me as I head downstairs. We take a seat at the dining table as we wait to be served our meals.“Do you know the next question we would be asked after we hold a wedding ceremony?” He asks; I shake my head, “what’s the next question” I say curiously. His eyes sparkle, “when are you going to give us a grand baby”, I start coughing and turn my face away from Nek to avoid looking at him. Why bring up this kind of conversation; he hands me a cup of water and softly pats my back.Feeling better I turn to face him, “what do we do when that time comes” I say feeling stressed out just by the thought of it. Nek noticing my nervousness, he places my hands on his and softly pats it; “when that bridge come

    Nek comes out of the office, “you’re still here Taina”; I look at him a bit confused, “Amelia informed me that you needed me to wait”. He smiles, “oh sorry, it slipped my mind; I completely forgot that I asked you to wait”“Bye Amelia” I say as we exit the office, she waves her hands at me and smiles and I repeat the action to her. “I didn’t know you both had become good friends” he chuckes. I smile at him, “we aren’t friends at least not yet; she’s been acting very nice to me, I’m trying to figure out the reason for her sudden change in attitude” I suspect it’s because I’m Neks’a wife that’s why she’s being so kind to me; she probably thought that if she couldn’t win, join them. I don’t like thinking of people in this manner but this is the only explanation that makes sense to me; but I’m going to give her reasonable doubt and trust her. Nek and I walk into our office, “please send ne the agenda of the meetings to be held today” he says as he disappears into his office. I spend th

    Nek drives up at the entrance of the restaurant; from the exterior of the restaurant, I can tell that this restaurant is very expensive. The restaurant looks so beautiful and I haven’t even seen the interior yet; Nek parks the car and alights, he comes to open the door for me, “thank you” I say stepping out.Nek hands the car keys to the valet and we enter the restaurant. A waiter comes towards us and moves us to a private room; where it’s just Nek and I. We both take our seats; the waiter hands us the menu and exits the room. I look around as, Nek is invested in the menu, “this place is breathtaking” I say still loooing around.“Do you come here often?” I ask; he shakes his head, “only when I have important dinners. I rather stay home and have my meal”, I nod my head in understanding; there’s no place as comfortable as home.After taking a look around; I take a seat at the table, I pick the menu and scan through it. Everything looks top notch here; after a moment of deliberation, I

    “Taina are you ready” Nek says as he knocks on the door, “I’m coming; give me a minute” I say as I wear my shoe. “We’re going to be late” he says; I scoff to myself, “we are very early Nek; stop rushing me, I’ll soon be ready” I shout.The knocking stops, so I guess he’s gone downstairs. I grab my bag and rush downstairs, “Nek” I say as I scan the lounging area and dining room for him; there are no signs of him. I check his office; but he’s also not there, feeling tired of moving up and down, I pull out my phone and call him.“Where are you?” I ask, “I’m in the car, waiting for you” he says, “oh sorry, I’ll come now”, I grab an apple and rush towards Nek car. He definitely needs to be patient, “sorry, for keeping you late” I say as I enter the car.“No problem, are you ready” he asks; I nod my head, “I’m ready” I say smiling. The drive to Neks parents estate takes one hour, it’s farther than any place I’ve been; most of the places I go to is usually a maximum of 30 minutes away.As w

    “Taina” Nek says softly, waking me up. “Yeah” I say, sleepily rubbing my eyes.“We have arrived at our parents' place” he says. “Oh” I say, sitting up, taking into view my environment. “It’s been a while since I was here” I say, coming down from the car.He smiles, “don’t worry, we’ll see them more often” he says, holding my hands with Taek on his other side.The maid opens the door, at the sound of the doorbell. A huge smile on her face at the sight of us, “they are at the lounging room” she says, before stepping away from the door.“Thank you” we say, walking past her and towards the lounging room. “Hi everyone” I say, waving as I walk into the room. I take time to respectfully greet my parents and Nek’s parents before returning to Nek’s side.Everyone has an enthusiastic look on their face as their eyes rover on me, I’m guessing they haven’t heard the reason why they’re there.“Who are the parents of this cute little boy” mom says, as she takes Taek from Nek.I smile, “it’s ours”

    The months that went by were fun, full of love and laughter. Nek showed up everyday without missing a single day, bearing flowers and gifts each time he came.He was always with Taek, almost as if he was trying to make up for lost time, which is completely understandable.Taek’s clocked one and Nek threw a massive birthday party for him, inviting my friends in Yuhic. I had wished that my family and friends in Yula would be able to make it but Nek explained that it wouldn't be a nice way to reveal the existence of our child, they’d be happy for us but also hurt and confused. So we decided to wait until we returned to Yula.Nek proposed to me at the end of the party, signifying that it’s a new start in our marriage and I gladly accepted as he’s the only man I want to be married to.Three months later“Are we going straight to your parents' place?” I ask, with Taek in my arms as we alight the plane. Nek takes Taek from me, noticing that I look uneasy, “are you okay?” He asks.I nod, “I’m

    I smile, “I love you too but you have to work for it. I forgiven you but I need to know that I can trust you. I need to know that the situation with Juris will never repeat itself again whether with Juris or with any other lady”.He nods, “I understand and I promise to put in the work”I smile, “you have to”. He nods, “can I ask a question?” He asks, looking a bit uneasy. I nod, “you can ask me anything”. He smiles, “who’s the guy that I met at the Excellence, is he your boyfriend?”I chuckle, “you mean David. David isn’t my boyfriend, he’s just a very good friend and besides, I wouldn’t let you kiss me if I had a boyfriend that’ll be cheating. And in the same manner, I can’t have a boyfriend if I’m married to you, if I do so, that’d be cheating”A look of relief washes over his face, “wait.. so that means… that means” he says, gently holding me by the shoulders.“What?” I ask, looking into his eyes. “Does that mean the child is mine, the little boy I greeted is our son” he asks, a s

    After a while, he stands to his feet and walks to his desk, pulling out a pile of tissue from its box. He gently dabs his eyes and blows his nose into the tissue, backing away from me so I can’t see him.The room remains silent, only the sound of his sobs filling the room. My heart goes out to him as I watch him cry, I want to walk over to him and embrace him in a hug telling him it’s okay and that I’ve forgiven him, but my legs don’t move as I remain fixed to my seat while I watch him dab his eyes.“I’m sorry” he chuckles, returning to the seat, “I guess it’s just pent up emotions for the past one year”. I smile, “it’s fine”.He shakes his head, “no it’s not, I chose my ex over our marriage, our relationship, our family. I literally embarrassed you in front of the staff and others by not upholding your honour”.He sniffles, “for the past nine months, I’ve been planning to see you. I wanted to apologise for my mistakes”“Two months with Juris revealed who she truly is, she is a gold d

    I walk into The Excellence, taking the first stairs, turning right; my heels clicking behind me. How I knew his office was not really a big deal, to others maybe, but to me no.I had taken a chance, The Excellence in Yuhic is built almost exactly like the one in Yula with few structural changes to fit in with the culture in Yuhic.I based off my judgment on that information, the worst that could go wrong is that I got lost and if that happened, I’d just call for help.My actions bring my movements to a halt as I stop at a door, there’s no plaque specifying what the room is, just like the one in Yula. Unlike the others which have a Plaque attached to this door, this one doesn’t. Nek didn’t want people to know he had an office here or that he was around, he said it caused too many unnecessary visits. And to be honest, I completely agree with the concept.I take a deep breath, pulling myself together before knocking on the door.“Please come in” I hear a voice on the other side of the r

    “Dear Taina BellosTrust this email meets you well. I’m writing to you, because I need to see you and sort out some facts that tie me to my past. I’d personally go over to your home, but we are not as close as we used to and I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t like that. I’d love it if we could meet at the Excellence hotel, in my office this evening at 4pm. My secretary will guide you at my arrival.P.S. I know it’s old fashioned to send you an email, but I don’t have your new number and I figured you’d still be using your old email.Warm RegardsNek Bellos”My heart flutters as I read the email. I've read the message over four times but every time I see the name Bellos attached to my name, I just can’t help but feel butterflies.The first thing I did after receiving the email, was to save it to my computer; just in case he rethinks his actions and retracts the mail.“Dear Taina Bellos” I mutter under my breath, reading the email once again. The feeling of giddiness overwhelming me as I re

    Taina’s POVI’ve been a nervous wreck for the past few days, I’ve anxiously been waiting for Nek’s call or from his secretary. Not that I wanted to receive a call, I assumed he’d want to know if the child is his, after all Taek bears a striking resemblance to Nek.I haven't had a single call, not even a text message. My heart feels less constricted and I can finally stop thinking about my next line of defence. I feel relieved but deep down in my heart, I’m a little anxious and worried that Nek could ask about Taek in the future. But I can’t live my life in worry, so I’ve decided to let things pan out; but one thing is sure, I’m not returning to The Excellence, especially not with Taek.“Good morning Taina” Isabella says, walking into the kitchen. “Good morning Isabella, how was your weekend?” I ask, a smile on my face as I embrace her in a hug.She smiles, “it was good, but I wish I didn’t miss the dinner at the Excellence with you all”. I nod, “well luckily, we’ll be doing it again

    Nek’s POV“Good evening sir” Clinton says, walking into my office, who is the manager of The Excellence located in Yuhic.“Good evening Clinton, how may I help you?” I ask, closing my laptop, and focusing my full attention on him. “Sorry to disturb you sir, but I wanted to inform you that your wife, Mrs Taina Bellos is currently at the restaurant”.My eyes instantly light up, “wife?” I ask, standing to my feet. He nods, “yes, your wife. She actually came some time ago”.I slowly nod, “and how do you know this person is actually my wife?” I ask, resting against my desk. “I’ve seen pictures of her in newspapers and in tabloids, so I could tell straight away that she was Mrs Bellos” he says.I smile, “alright, thank you for informing me. I’ll be downstairs in some minutes time” I say, fully believing that he knows Taina. He nods, “you’re welcome sir, I’ll be going now” he says, walking out of the office.My mind races as I think of Taina, my wife; the one that holds my heart. I slump int

    I gently shut the door to my room, with Taek sleeping soundly inside. “I’m sorry for keeping you waiting for so long” I say, walking into the lounge room.David smiles, “I don’t mind, is he sleeping now?” He asks. I nod, “he’s sleeping soundly, the crying in the car must have worn him out”.He nods, “to be honest I’ve never seen Taek cry like that, he’s usually a quiet baby so I was shocked to see him cry so loudly”. I nod, thinking the same thing; could it be that being separated from his father upset him.“He probably was just tired, making him extra cranky. And the broccoli situation didn’t help matters” I chuckle, in an attempt to calm the mood.He smiles, “maybe”.“So what do you want to know, you can ask me anything?” I say, sitting on the sofa. David nods, he looks deep in thought, almost like he is carefully constructing his questions.“Is Nek really your husband?” He asks, breaking the silence. I nod, “he is, he has no reason to lie about that. Nek is my husband and he’s Taek
