Princess’s mouth was filled with oysters. She paid little or no attention to Sebastian because she was engrossed in her chilled seafood tray. It was a big tray, and she had almost finished half of it. The people that sat around watched her in amusement. “Don’t tell me she is going to finish all of that?” They murmured. Sebastian was lost staring at her, to the extent that he forgot to eat his meal. After finishing the oyster in her mouth, she reached for the banana foster next to her tray, and she scooped some of them. She moved the spoon to her mouth and smiled widely. She looked up and saw Sebastian staring at her. “I’m full.” Sebastian looked at her tray, and he saw she had eaten only half of what was on it. She also took only half of her dessert. “Of course, you should be filled. How was it?” He asked, and she grinned, revealing her white, fragile set of teeth. “I love it! The tray was too big, and I grew tired of eating.” Sebastian raised his brows and laughed. “So why
Stephanie got into the living room, and when she saw the bags at the door, she furrowed her brows. “What are these?” She approached Mary, and Mary picked up a bag and looked into it. “They look like gifts,” Mary teased. She looked at Stephanie and saw she wasn't in the mood for jokes. “Where did they come from?” Mary sighed and dropped the bag she picked with the others. “You know where they are from, Stephanie. Who else would they be from if not Sebastian?” Stephanie ran her hand through her hair in frustration. She searched for the right words to say, but she went blank. “Stephanie, please stop being dramatic. He wants you to be happy, that's all. Come and check them out.” “No, Mary. Isn't it obvious he is trying to buy my attention with all these?” “C’mon, Stephanie. How else would you want a man to buy your attention? It isn't as deep as you think it is. He is a nice person.” Stephanie stared at Mary unbelievably. Mary began to search through the bags one after the other.
~THE NEXT DAY~Stephanie dashed over to her drawer and yanked it open. She took out her comb and ran it through her hair. Princess dashed in through her room door, all dolled up for their trip back home. Stephanie grabbed Princess as soon as she got to her, and hurled her in the air. As she caught her, Princess greeted, “Good morning, Stephanie!” Stephanie placed her on the floor and squatted in front of her. "Good day, Princess." This morning, you appear ecstatic. "Can you tell me what the secret is?" Stephanie tickled her and made her laugh."This is one of the dresses Sebastian purchased for me!" Because I slept off, I was unaware that he had purchased outfits for me. He bought five! I'm overjoyed. They're all so lovely!" She dashed over to Stephanie's standing mirror and turned around, checking herself out once again. Stephanie stood up with a big smile on her face. She checked her wristwatch, which read 8 a.m. "I'm going to be late." She gathered her belongings and took one l
Sebastian looked at his wristwatch and saw it was past noon already. “She should be on her lunch break soon.” He said to himself, staring at the entrance. He heaved a sigh and thought of waiting a few minutes longer. He had promised he wasn’t going to bother her, and he was going to stick to his promise. He rested his head on the steering and closed his eyes. His stomach grumbled, and he hugged his belly, shutting his eyes tight. “I haven’t eaten, Stephanie. Please step out.” He prayed silently. All of a sudden, he heard a knock on his car glass, and he raised his head to see Stephanie. She stood in front of his door with her arms folded under her magnificent twin orbs. He wound down the glass with a large grin on his face. “What are you still doing here, Sebastian?” She asked before he could utter any words. “Ermm… I was waiting for your lunch break so that I can have lunch with you.”“Sebastian, you should go back home, okay?” She responded, and he shook his head. “No, Stephanie
At Night Stephanie sat in front of her full mirror, preparing for her dinner date with Sebastian. Her phone started beeping as she penciled her lips carefully with her red lipstick. She covered her lipstick and placed it in the drawer that wasn't so far from her. She stood up and rushed to the bed where her phone was. She picked it up and saw it was her mother calling on a video call. She smiled faintly and answered the call. “Hey, mom!” She waved her hand at the screen and sat on her bed. Sarah raised her brow when she saw her daughter's cleavage was exposed, and her face was beautifully painted with makeup. “What’s the occasion? Your boobs will fall off that dress if you are not careful!” Sarah mocked, and Stephanie rolled her eyes. “Mom, must you exaggerate everything?” She took a look at her boobs to reassure herself that her boobs won't truly pop out. “Can't you see it yourself? They look so big! When did you grow such big boobs?!” Sarah covered her mouth with her hand in disb
**Don’t stay away**Stephanie disengaged from him and took more time to check out what was in front of her. At the four corners of the chair, about five to six centimeters away were wooden pools with tiki lamps on each of them. On the sand were about seven pillar candles surrounding the furniture. On the table, which was covered with white linen fabric, were Colonettes, bold bloom flowers, two bottles of exotic wines in small wine buckets, glass cups, some rose petals, cutleries neatly arranged, and plates that had different kinds of appetizers on them. “When did you set all these up?” Stephanie asked in astonishment as Sebastian dragged the wooden chair backward so she could sit. “Is that necessary? We are here now, we should think about the present.” He responded as he walked to his chair. She bounced her head shyly and looked at the delicacies in front of her. There was Chicken Pasta Salad, Hard boiled eggs, fruit salad, and grapes. “Are we going to finish these? These are too m
Stephanie woke up with a large smile on her face. She covered her face with her hands and giggled as she remembered what happened last night. She heaved a sigh and turned on her side to see the bouquets Sebastian got for her on the drawer next to her bed. She reached for her phone that laid next to her bedside lamp, and she switched it on. As the phone came on, a message popped into her phone from an unknown number. She creased her brows and clicked on the message anxiously. The message read, "Just know that there's love in the air that you and I can both experience at the same moment if you feel the morning wind around you! Wake up and send me a text message. Good morning… From Sebastian.” Her smile was like sunshine on a ripening garden as she read the text to herself. “But wait...” She narrowed her gaze at the text. “How did he get my phone number? I can’t remember giving it to him,” She thought aloud. She was jolted out of her thoughts when her phone began to beep. She saw it wa
Stephanie got into the company and walked to her office. Immediately after she got in, Danielle walked up to her with a grin on her face. “What is it this time, Danielle?” She asked. and Danielle burst into laughter. “I saw both of you,” She said, and Stephanie raised one of her brows and walked to her desk. “I don’t understand you. You saw who?” Stephanie teased. “I saw you and Sebastian! I saw when he kissed your cheeks in the car,” She responded in a whisper and a smile crawled up Stephanie’s face. “Well, it was just a ‘see you later kiss’, okay?” She sat on her chair and placed her bag on the table. Danielle shook her head and moved closer to her. Her desk was not so far from Stephanie’s, so she pulled her chair close to Stephanie’s chair and leaned closer to her. “You can’t deceive me, Stephanie. I have known you for months now. You would never let anyone kiss you. Except…” She paused, and Stephanie rolled her eyes. “It’s very early in the morning, Danielle. Don’t you have work
~Few Month Later~ Sebastian sat in the living room working on his phone when Liam ran into the living room, giggling. “Dad! Auntie’s baby just kicked! I felt it under my hand when I touched her belly!” He said with great happiness. Sebastian opened his arms and picked Liam up. He placed him on his lap and kissed his cheeks. “Is Mom awake?” He asked, and Liam bounced his head. “Yes, she is! She woke up a few minutes ago, when I was touching her belly.” He said, and Sebastian smiled and nodded. “I should go and say Hi to her. Wait here, okay?” He said and placed Liam on the chair. He stood up to leave but Liam held his hand and made him stop. He looked at him and furrowed his brows. “What’s wrong, Liam?” He asked. “What about mother? You promised me I would be seeing her this month. When will it be, dad? I miss her.” Sebastian heaved a sigh after listening to Liam. He squatted in front of him and held his two small hands. He poked his cheeks softly, and Liam chuckled. “Liam,
Stephanie smiled from her sleep and slowly opened her eyes. Sebastian’s hands were wrapped around her on the bed they laid. His face was so close to her that she could feel every little breath he took. She stared at his face for a long time, falling in love over and over again. “Why are you staring?” Sebastian asked all of a sudden, keeping his eyes shut. Stephanie chuckled and poked his cheek playfully. “Can’t I stare at you anymore?” She asked, and he smiled and opened his eyes. “If you can’t stare at me, who can?” He asked, and her cheeks flushed. “Thank you, Sebastian.” “What is that for?” “For not giving up on me. You could have done that a long time ago, but you didn’t. You kept looking for me. I feel like the luckiest woman on Earth.” Sebastian divulged an overwhelming smile and bounced his head. “Thank you too. You coming into my life as being the best thing ever. I love you so much, Stephanie, and I won’t stop loving you.” Stephanie bounced her head and embraced hi
Stephanie went on her knees in front of Sebastian, who stared at her with lust and pleasure in his eyes. “Are you sure about this, Stephanie?” He moaned as Stephanie began to unbuckle his belt. “I’m pregnant doesn’t mean I can’t play with you, yeah?” She pulled down his boxers aggressively and grabbed his engorged manhood in her hot hand. “When was the last time you did this?” She asked, raising her head and looking at Sebastian’s face, which was reacting to her hands around his erection. “The last time was when I was with you, Stephanie.” Stephanie went on to roll her tongue over the cap of his rigid shaft, which made him throw his head back in excitement. “Not even with Rosabella?” She asked and started moving her mouth up and down his hardness. “Never. I told you that we don’t have such a relationship, Stephanie. I love only you.” He lowered his head to look at her and she let out a satisfied smirk. She withdrew her mouth from him and stared at him like she had never seen
Sebastian got to Italy at night, and he headed right to Stephanie’s apartment. Stephanie on the other hand took care of the apartment and prepared dinner for him. She sat in the living room, waiting for him to arrive. Soon, she heard a car pull up in front of her apartment. She sprang to her feet and hurried to the door. She opened the door and saw Sebastian standing at the gate with a large traveling bag. “Stephanie?” He called with great happiness. “Sebastian.” She ran down the porch and Sebastian let go of his bag and opened his arms wide to accommodate her. Stephanie ran into his arms, and he embraced her carefully, lifting her from the ground, and she laughed out loud. “Gosh, I missed you so much.” He grabbed her head and planted a fierce kiss on her lips. She chuckled and bounced her head as soon as they disengaged. “I missed you so much too.” “I’m sorry, Stephanie. I’m so sorry for letting you go through all these on your own.” Stephanie shook her head and looked at
~After Four Months~ Stephanie stepped out of the house to water the little garden in front of the house, carrying her protruded stomach with her. As she watered the plants, she noticed someone was staring at her. She looked to her right side and saw her neighbor, a woman, looking at her. “Hi.” The woman greeted, waving at her. “Hi, Good morning, Ma’am,” Stephanie responded, smiling politely. “Can I come to you?” She asked, and Stephanie bounced her head. “Sure.” Stephanie watched the woman walk out of her compound and head to her compound. She hadn’t seen the woman for about three months. “You’re back, right?” Stephanie asked when she got closer. “Yes, I am. I had to travel out for business.” Stephanie bounced her head and chuckled. “I could guess. I haven’t seen you for three months. I thought you relocated already.” “Nah… What's your name?” She asked. “I’m Stephanie. And you? What’s your name?” “I’m Fiona. It’s nice to meet you.” She stretched her hand to Stephanie, and
Stephanie grabbed her phone and pressed it against her ear in shock. “You are pregnant?!” Sarah asked again, and Stephanie began to pant very hard. “Hey, are you okay? You don’t look so good.” The Doctor said, staring at Stephanie. She looked at him and shook her head. “I… I am good,” She mumbled and stood up. She looked at the file in her hand again. Her eyes heated up quickly and her emotions escalated. “Mom, you heard the doctor.” She mumbled as she walked out of the office. “Oh God, what are you going to do? Stephanie, this is serious.” “Mom, I know! You are not letting me think! Can you please give me a second?” She yelled in tears, and those that were around stared at her. She rested her back on the wall and slid down, crying profusely. Her phone slid out of her hand and slightly fell to the floor. ‘What are you going to do, Stephanie?! You are pregnant for Sebastian! Are you going to tell him? Are you going to keep this baby?’ “Stephanie, are you there?” Sarah asked a
~ After two days~Stephanie arrived in Italy very early in the morning. Luckily, her father could help her get an apartment there after she explained all that happened with Sebastian. They tried to talk her out of running away, but she had made up her mind already. She needed to stay far from him, from everything. Maybe then, she would be able to think and feel better. She got into the living room and looked around the apartment. It wasn’t very big but was perfect for a single lady like her. The furniture was covered with white clothing, and the polished floor looked clean. She began to remove the clothes from the table and chairs when her phone began to ring. It was Danielle calling. She smiled widely and answered the phone. “Hi, Danielle. I thought of calling you after I finish cleaning the house. I didn’t know you would do the calling first.” Danielle giggled and responded. “Well, isn’t that good? What if you forgot to call me?” “I can’t forget that kind of thing, Danielle.
Stephanie sneaked into the room early in the morning to find Sebastian still sleeping with Liam lying next to him. Her eyes were swollen because she couldn’t sleep throughout the night, so she was awake. The way Liam and Sebastian held each other made her stare at them for so long. She could feel a part of Sebastian that was missing was finally complete. Even in his sleep, she could feel he was happy, finding out about Liam. Stephanie exhaled softly and silently reached for her things. She began to pack her stuff. She was going to head home and think about everything all over again. She had cried so much because of love and it was beginning to seem like she needed to stay away. The hurt was becoming too much. She also refused to write any notes because she didn’t want him to find her. Maybe when she was done thinking about everything, they could talk things out. She headed out of the hotel room shortly, drowning in sadness. As she walked down the corridor, one of the doors in
Sebastian got back to the hotel room at night. He ran off, trying to compose what he was going to say to Stephanie, but his head was blank. He was too shocked to know what to say. He got to the hotel room and saw the door was unlocked. He opened the door and saw her sitting on the bed. She sat, facing the large window and staring outside. He moved closer to her, and when he looked at her face, he saw it was all swollen and red because of how much she had cried. He went to his knees in front of her, his eyes were glittering under the lights of the hotel room. He was on the brink of crying too. “I’m sorry, Stephanie. I never knew…” “You don’t have to do this, Sebastian. It’s obvious you didn’t know.” She threw her head backward and blinked her eyes severally. “I swear, Stephanie, this doesn’t change anything.” “Of course, it does, Sebastian! You have a son, and you have every right to take care of him, okay? He hugged you, he was happy to see you. You can’t just push him away,”
