Olivia inhaled sharply staring at the phone next to her, as if things weren't bad enough in her home, Kelvin's school just called about his school f*e..

The rent will be due in a few days time, and payday was till next week..

Bianca came into the room with a sour expression on her face, she also noticed the foul look on Olivia's face and couldn't help but recall what happened last night..

She was so angry that she spurt out things she wasn't supposed to say..

"Hey"

Olivia was taken out of her thoughts, she managed to offer a small smile which fell as soon as it came..

"Are you alright?" She inquired standing up to her feet..

"My mum doesn't want to see or talk to me.." Bianca painfully murmured, if only she could go back in time, she'd have prevented last night's incident from happening again..

"Neither does my mum...I guess they're still pretty mad"

Bianca inhaled sharply, when she passed by Sandy's room, she could hear her mum's faint sobs coming from inside..

    Olivia went on one knee before Kelvin who had a fallen expression on his face, the little dude was upset because he couldn't go to school with Kiara today.. "Look baby..I promise you'd go tomorrow alright?" Kelvin shook his head in protest "But why can't I go today? those bad boys might try to bully Kiara again" He added with a pout making small circles with his left foot.. "Have I ever lied to you Kelvin?" "Yes..you promised to get me a bike on my fourth and fifth birthday but you didn't" Kelvin retorted with a straight face.. Olivia rose up to her feet with her hands on her hips? really? was he going to use this one failed promise against her for the rest of her life? She could have gotten a bike for him but she had so much on her plate then to even add another expense.. "Alright..I'm gonna report you to Bianca, she knows what to do with you" The doorbell rang diverting their attention, she ruffled his hair and walked away from him to the door pulling it open..

    Olivia took two step closer to Damien with her phone outstretched to him.. "There's no need to be surprised like I said earlier, it's my responsibility now..all you have to do is to be a good fiancee and leave the rest all to me" He calmly stated, but what surprised him the most was that this building was owned by the Sterling's.. One of them at least, but who among his family members can stoop as low as this? Her outstretched hand slowly dropped to her side, she didn't want him to see how vulnerable she was, she had always cleared her bills by herself.. What if Kelvin eventually likes his dad more than her ? "See mummy? daddy took care of everything and you don't have to work so hard anymore" "You're giving him so much credit what about me?" She inquired narrowing her eyes at the two who suddenly bursted out laughing at her expression.. Damien took a glance at his wrist watch, in as much as he wanted this rare moment to last longer, he had to be at a meeting in the ne

    Alexa's heart skipped a beat as Hardin leaned down to her, one of his fingers grazed her cheeks slowly building a toe curling sensation in her body.. She felt her knees weaken by that little touch of his and before she knew it, she fell on her back to the bed after he pushed her forehead with his index finger.. "So lazy..you couldn't even keep up" Hardin scorned moving away from her.. Wasn't it enough that she had to sleep in his room while he slept in the living room last night? Embarassment splashed over her face, she tapped her forehead with a sigh.. His scent still lingered around the room even if he was gone, they came to an agreement last night that he'd give up his room to her but not his bathroom.. As crazy as it might sound, Alexa still agreed to it, she couldn't deny that one part in her silly mind loved what she saw this morning.. Her phone's ringtone pulled her out of her naughty thoughts.. She brought the phone over her face and sat up as soon as she saw

    Damien had a surprised expression on his face, what prompted this sudden change in her? or was she trying to mess up with his head? "Are you for real?" he asked in uncertainty.. Olivia gave a small nod, she exhaled deeply feeling the huge weight on her shoulder lessen, there was no harm in trying right? "That's great! I promise I won't give you a reason to doubt my intentions" Olivia stared at him meaningfully, his last words played over and over again in her head.. His intentions.. *** Bianca sighed in relief when the living room returned to its usual peacefulness, Kelvin was up with Sandy and now for her time alone.. She couldn't help but feel that something wasn't right, she was forgetting something.. With that thought aside, she settled on the couch with the hope of watching her favorite action movie.. "Hmm perfect!" she dipped her whole hand into the bowl of chips.. Just when she thought her day was already perfect and set, the doorbell rang.. She cursed

    Anita's lips curved upward as the flashy blue gem flashed on her face, she ran a finger over the ring before taking it out of the box.. Aldrin had made her wait for so long before he eventually gave this to her, whereas, he didn't ask before she gave him his present.. "I love it..." He sighed in relief, he was glad that she didn't recognize the ring, but deep down he felt guilty, guilty that he forgot about their wedding anniversary.. "I'm glad that you do" He collected the ring from her and slid it on her finger which she stretched out to him.. The sound of heels hitting the marbled floor pulled them out of the little world they had created for a brief moment.. "Elder Sterling!" Anita frowned hard, that voice sounded really familiar to her, and she was right because Tracy's slender figure came in view.. "Tra- Anita shot Aldrin a narrowed gaze forcing the words back down his throat, he simply waved at her which she didn't bother to return.. Well not like he ca

    Xander walked calmly onto the eatery, he had tried his best to beat the time but he couldn't, he searched around for her familiar face until he spotted her sitting by the side of the long floor to ceiling window.. He took in a deep breath as he approached the table.. "Hey you made it" Her unusual chirpy voice rang in his ear.. He took a look behind him just to be sure that he was the one, seeing no one behind him, he took a seat in front of her.. Different thoughts ran through his mind at that moment, there was something different about her that he couldn't comprehend.. "Are you listening?" Her voice pulled him out of his thoughts, he simply shook his head with a polite smile.. "Uh..sorry about that, I zoned out for a minute there" Bianca took the menu from the table going through it, she was so hungry, her mum and Nathan only made food for themselves and when she had asked about her share, her mum simply replied.. "Go get yourself a man" She snorted recalling that

    The most awaited weekend Kelvin had been looking forward to was finally here, he had bugged his mum on how to make the day go by faster just so he could visit his dad.. Olivia touched her forehead with her palm listening to Kelvin's nonstop talks, he hasn't been this excited to hang out with her like he was doing now.. "Kelvin get back here!" She yelled after his little frame that just jumped out of the bathtub still in his play pants and also covered in soapy bubbles.. Meanwhile.... Sandy giggled as the water from Kelvin's water gun sprinkled on her face, it was obvious the kid was so excited to spend the weekend with his dad.. "Kelvin!" Olivia yelled out frustratedly running down the stairs.. "Mum will you please tell him to stop stressing me so early? maybe I'll just cancel the plan" Kelvin stopped abruptly when he heard his mum's last words, he turned to her in surprise.. "But why?" "Gotcha!" Bianca screamed out swiping him off his little feet, he was so slipper

    Kelvin's smile grew wider as the car came to a halt in front of his dad's supposed house, he bounced up and down in the car impatiently.. "Mummy can we stay here from now on? daddy's house is the best!!" He shrieked almost making every one go deaf.. One of the guards stepped out of the car behind them and opened the car's door, almost immediately, the chirpy kid bursted out through the door running and screaming around in circles.. Olivia sighed exasperatedly stepping out of the car, her eyes caught sight of the familiar silhouette coming out of the building. Her breath hitched for a while, this was probably the first time she had seen him in a casual outfit other than a suit, he was on a deep blue Tshirt coupled with a pair of black jean pants .. Even when they were at Chicago, he always wore his suit and at night, his PJs.. "Daddy!!!" Damien's lips curved upward as the kid ran to him at full speed.. "Slow down Kelvin!" Olivia yelled out assisting the guard who was ta

    Despite all that had happened to Tracy in the last few weeks, she was smart enough to understand that revenge wouldn't help her out at all. She pulled her gaze off the large screen showing the live footage of Damien and Olivia's wedding. That should have been her daughter smiling so brightly on the screen, but the latter messed up her chances. If only Olivia hadn't come into the picture, maybe everything would still be intact and in place. The Brown's wouldn't have been broken apart like it had. Taking a huge deep breath, she gripped the handle of the wheelchair where a dazed looking Asher sat. The doctor said he was still in shock of whatever had happened around him but it's been days since he woke up and the only word he uttered was "Olivia" Tracy wasn't oblivious to the fact that Asher had something for Olivia. "Your dad and Rihanna has chosen their own path, I think it's time we get going and start our lives afresh" They had to catch the fastest flight to Florida w

    Few days later.. The most awaited day in the city came by so fast. The day were the two souls were finally going to be joined together by the sacred bonds of marriage. A majestic church was transformed into a breathtakingly opulent wedding wonderland. The stained glass windows adorned with intricate stone carvings filtered the sunlight casting kaleidoscopic patterns across the polished marbled floor covered with a plush white carpet runner embroidered with gold thread. Garlands of lush greenery and exotic white flowers which included, roses, orchids, and gardenias entwined the wooden pews leading up to the altar. The air was sweet with the scent of blooming flowers. All these extravagant decor had everything to do with Anita Sterling, the most joyous soul on earth. She had been anticipating this day so much if not more than the couple and finally it was here. As the orchestra's strings swelled, the congregation rose. Their faces turned toward the back of the church. Th

    Alexa took a glance at Hardin seated next to her in the car when he didn't make any attempt to step out of the car. Today, her older brother had summoned her to the Sterling's ancestral home for an urgent meeting, and she had taken advantage of that opportunity to introduce Hardin to her family. Except that the latter was feeling nervous about this meeting. Hardin knew that he had to face his girl's family sooner than later. He wasn't scared of meeting them but rather be was scared that they might look down on him because of the huge gap between their status. Or worse they might shoo him away from Alexa which he wouldn't be able to bear. Alexa's hand fell on his palm fisted on his lap. She gave it a soft reassuring squeeze. "Trust me. Everything will be fine. My brother might seem tough but he is actually soft hearted on the inside and my dad isn't much of a trouble either" Hardin released a deep breath, he casted her a glance. "And your mum? There's still enough time

    Tracy's hand shakily reached for the door's knob leading to Asher's ward. Her heart raced wildly as the door creaked open. She took a step in and almost immediately, a surprised squeal left her lips. Her legs almost gave way, but luckily, she regained her composure and hurried to the bed where the lean figure lay with his eyes wide open. "Asher" She cried out softly caressing his hair. He was awake. Meanwhile, Asher's face was as still as a statue, he hardly blinked or changed his line of focus. Tracy rained multiple kisses on his face but that still didn't generate any reaction from him. There were several questions running wild in her head that needed to be answered. "Asher..can you hear me? it's me your mum" She reminded him taking his hand in hers. She brought his hand to her lips and began sobbing. Now she had a new ray of hope. He was awake and that was all that mattered to her. *** Olivia sat on her bed reading a book in the peace and quietness of Damien's r

    Bianca flashed a smile at the kind receptionist who led her to the door leading to Xander's office... Her hubby must have been working his ass off and had probably forgotten to have breakfast before coming to the office and it was certain that he might skip lunch too. But not on her watch. She had decided to pay a surprise visit to him today by coming over to his company with his lunch. She pushed the door open and stepped in with all smiles.. "Hey, Mr Gray I see you're busy." Xander was startled at her sudden familiar and chirpy voice, he snapped his head up from his PC to her. She plunged to the chair in front of his large desk with a broad grin on her face placing two takeouts on his desk. From her facial expression he got that she was excited to see him. "Wow! I wasn't expecting you to show up. You startled me for a second there" She sprang up to her feet and walked around the desk heading to him, once she drew close enough she stood behind him and leaned dow

    All throughout the ride back home Damien's hand never left Olivia's tummy no matter how many times she made jest of him. He just couldn't contain his happiness and the same goes to Olivia. "Don't you think you are overreacting?" Olivia inquired arching a brow. She wasn't complaining or anything, it was just it felt weird for him to caress her flat tummy. "Come on. I wasn't there for you when you were pregnant with Kelvin. The least I could do is to make sure that I'm always by your side from now henceforth" Olivia sighed in defeat, she tilted her head by the side till it fell on his shoulder. "As you wish Mr Sterling" *** Hardin wiped off small food crumbs by the corner of Alexa's lips using his thumb. He took the dirty dishes along with him to the kitchen. "You don't have to do the dishes. I can manage on my own" Alexa lazily offered running her palm on her stomach. "Nah. it's nothing much" It's been a while since she last ate a really nourishing homemade foo

    Damien and Olivia waited patiently for the results of the test carried out. The result was said to be ready in the next thirty minutes. "Are you sure you aren't feeling any discomfort?" He asked worriedly. Olivia's face fell for the umpteenth time in a row, Damien had been bugging her with that same question over and over again. "Yes. My ears are about to be blown off by you. I told you already right? I'm fine quit worrying yourself for nothing" Damien chuckled at her response, he brought his hand to her blonde hair stroking it lovingly. "I can't help but worry about you honey" Olivia flashed him a look of surprise, he just addressed her as 'Honey' and surprisingly it sounded right to her ears. Luckily for Olivia who was gradually burning in red color, the door opened and a doctor stepped into his office while a nurse followed behind him. He took his seat behind his large brown desk filled with some papers clipped together and his name tag. "Mr Sterling. I'm deepl

    Hardin pulled away from Alexa after a few seconds of their lips locking. He cupped her face in his hands while his eyes never left hers for a second. Her face was expressionless and he noticed that she didn't reciprocate to his advances. Or furthermore, she wasn't interested in him like he was in her. The thought of that shattered his heart into a million tiny pieces. Maybe this had something to do with the huge gap in their status. But at this point, nothing mattered to him any longer except the lady standing close to him. Whether she accepted him or not, he had decided to pour out his feelings. She hadn't said a word neither had she blinked or make the slightest of movement. Perhaps, she was still in a state of shock, which was very true. Although this wasn't the first time Hardin had kissed her, but this kiss which lasted for a few seconds felt entirely different. Her heart thumped wildly wondering why he did that. Different questions and assumptions filled her mind leavin

  • Mummy, Daddy is on his kneels   Chapter 156_ Hangover

    The once messy apartment which belonged to Alexa was made spotless and neat after a few hours of cleaning by Hardin.. He picked up the trashcan and proceeded to the living room where some of her dresses and socks were littered. A few empty packs from various snacks covered the table in the midst of the mini living room. "How come I never noticed any of this whenever I come in here?" He questioned no one in particular.. After taking out the thrash from the table, his eyes caught sight of a thin strip paper like object lying lazily on the table.. Hardin's brows furrowed, from the two clear red lines flashing before his eyes, he already knew what this was. He picked it up examining it closely, this was a pregnancy strip. And worse of it all, it was showing two lines which meant that it was positive. Was Alexa pregnant? if not what was it doing in her apartment? Meanwhile.. A smile carved on Alexa's sleeping face when a mouth watering aroma filled her nostrils. She stir
