~After a week~

Stephanie got to the office with the same puffy eyes she had yesterday. She wasn’t sure she wouldn’t be able to get rid of it anytime soon, so she didn’t bother doing anything about it. All she needed was a good night's sleep and how to forget Sebastian totally.

Danielle and Thomas had arrived at the office, and when they didn’t see her, they called her but Stephanie didn’t answer the phone because she was close to the company already. Dr. Peter stormed into their office in anger, he stared at Danielle and Thomas before speaking.

“She still hasn't arrived?!” He spat in anger. An important client of the company was waiting in his office, and he had asked to see the marketing head which was Stephanie. “He has been sitting for twenty minutes now, waiting for her! Didn’t she check the time?” Dr. Peter was angry and equally frustrated. He was beginning to grow tired of Stephanie's incompetence that she had developed in the new year.

Danielle stood up in great worried and

    “Mary! What is taking you so long? Don’t tell me you are going through her stuff again!” Sarah shouted from the kitchen. She asked Mary to take care of Stephanie’s room against her return, and Mary was taking years to do that. She got no response from Mary, and Sarah heaved a sigh. She stormed out of the kitchen and headed to Stephanie’s room. She barged into the room and was about to shout when she saw Mary sitting on Stephanie’s already laid bed. She had a paper in her hand, and she looked lost staring at it. “What is that?” Sarah asked as she approached her. Mary heaved and showed her the paper in her hand. It happened to be a picture that Stephanie and Owen took when they were still together. Sarah collected the picture and stared at it for minutes. She saw how happy Stephanie looked in the picture and it broke her to know that happiness didn’t last long. “I saw it in a box she kept under her closet. I don’t know why she has that, Mum, but I don’t think she needs it anymore. We

    ~The Next Day~ Stephanie felt someone sit next to her on the bed while she slept. She turned to her other side and slowly opened her eyes. She saw her mother and father staring at her as she slept. She wrinkled her forehead and rubbed her eyes with her finger. “Mom. Dad. What’s wrong?” She asked. Sarah was sitting next to her on the bed, and Philip was standing next to Sarah. “Good morning, Stephanie.” They chorused with a bright smile. Stephanie held onto the bed with her hands and pulled herself to sit up. “Good morning.” She covered her mouth and closed her eyes as she divulged a yawn. “How are you this morning?” Philip asked, and she bounced her head. She opened her eyes and looked at them again. They seemed suspicious, and Stephanie knew it. “Should I be worried? You are in my room so early in the morning.” Sarah smiled faintly and moved her hands to Stephanie’s legs which were still tucked under her duvet. “We are here to talk. We wouldn’t want your siblings to listen to what

    ~The Next Day~ “Stephanie, please pass me the butter.” Sarah quickly placed the washed chicken laps in a bowl with her right hand and stretched her left hand to Stephanie. Stephanie picked up the butter that was in a small bowl and passed it to Sarah. “Thank you,” Sarah said, and cut some of it into the heating pan. “Can I beat the eggs now?” Stephanie asked, and before Sarah responded, Mary walked into the kitchen looking very beautiful. She braided the sides of her brown hair and applied some makeup. “Hmm… Where are you going looking so beautiful?” Sarah twitched her eyes brows, and Mary giggled. “Stephanie, you are still in the kitchen?! I told you, you would be following me to my friend’s birthday party!” Her eyes popped open when she saw Stephanie was yet to prepare. “Oh my, I’m so sorry, Mary. You didn’t remind me again. I totally forgot. Is it time now?” Stephanie asked sadly, and Mary shook her head. “You have fewer hours to prepare though. I’m done with my makeup, all I ha

    “Stephanie? What are you doing here?” Owen picked up her phone from the floor and gave it to her. Stephanie was too stunned to speak and all she did was stare at him. “Here… Your phone.” He stared at her shocked face. Stephanie hurriedly collected your phone from him, grabbed his bag, and stood up. She proceeded to the door in the twinkle of an eye. “Stephanie!” “Ma’am, your tequila is ready!” Stephanie heard the voices call behind her but she didn’t look back. She kept storming to the door. Her eyes were on the door, and she didn’t shift her focus until she was out of the house. She saw a Taxi heading to where she was, she raised her hand to wave it down, then she remembered Mary. ‘I’m here to watch over Mary. If I leave now, how will I do that? What will I tell Mom?’ She gulped hard and lowered her hand. She turned away from the road and looked at the mansion. ‘What the hell is he doing here?’ Stephanie saw Owen hurry out of the door, he was chasing her. When he saw her standing a

    Stephanie’s phone made a beep which made her open her eyes. She threw her hands on her drawer and picked up her phone. Her sleepy eyes closed and opened before she took a look at her phone’s screen. When she finally opened her eyes to check the message that had popped in, her eyes widened in great shock, and she sprang up. It was a message from the company she had submitted her credentials to. “I have an interview in an hour?!” She roared and jumped out of bed. Her heart was thumping violently against her chest. She was very surprised and was still in shock as she rushed to the bathroom. As she was in the bathroom, her door flung up, and Sarah entered. “Stephanie, are you okay? I heard your screen,” Sarah uttered fearfully as her eyes scanned Stephanie’s room. When she didn’t see her in the room, she moved to her bathroom door and placed her ear on it. “Stephanie, are you in there?!” She asked in a louder voice, and Stephanie heard her. “Mom, Mom is that you?!” Stephanie asked from i

    “Sebastian?” Stephanie struggled to mutter, and she watched him stand up. “How are you, Stephanie?” He walked to where she was standing. Stephanie wanted to move away, but she was too stunned to move. When he got closer to her, Stephanie didn’t hesitate before she lifted her hand and spanked him in the face. Sebastian’s face fell to the side and clenched his jaw as he felt great pain in my face. “How dare you, Sebastian!” She yelled, and Sebastian turned to look at her. “I’m sorry, Stephanie.” She shook her head and picked up her bag. “Coming here was a horrible mistake.” She turned to leave, and Sebastian quickly grabbed her from behind and embraced her tightly. “I’m sorry, Stephanie,” He mumbled, and Stephanie struggled to release his grip around her. “Let me go! How dare you touch me? After what you did to me!” She yelled, but Sebastian didn’t let go of her. Instead, he tightened his grip around her. “Let me go!” Stephanie’s voice was low and quivering. Tears streamed down her e

    ~ After a week~Stephanie stood in front of Sebastian’s company. She gazed at the building and began to replay all her parents had told her. Sarah and Philip called her for a private chat after she told them what happened at the company. She told them she wasn’t going to go back, but Sarah and Philip told her to embrace the opportunity since other companies didn’t get back to her. They told her she could start in the meantime and when she secures another job somewhere else, she could leave. After so much pressure from her parents, she told them she would return, and if she didn’t feel comfortable, she would leave without thinking. Stephanie heaved a sigh and slowly walked into the company. As she approached the receptionist, the receptionist looked up and hastily sprang to her feet. Stephanie knitted her brows, wondering why she acted in such a way. “Miss Stephanie Taylor. Welcome, Ma’am.” She gave Stephanie a slight bow, and Stephanie reciprocated the bow in surprise. “Good mornin

    Stephanie sat on the chair in front of Sebastian’s desk, she had a file in her hand, and she was busy going through its content. Sebastian on the other hand was busy gazing at her. He replayed all the memories he had with her in New York City, and he couldn’t wait to create more. “How is Princess?” He asked out of nowhere, and Stephanie raised her head. She looked at him and noticed how he had been staring at her. “Princess is fine. Always fine.” She glued her eyes to the file again, and Sebastian nodded. “I can’t wait to see her again. I miss her.” Stephanie looked up and heaved a sigh. She raised the file and shook it. “So you have new clients now?” She asked, and he nodded. “We have about five active ones. There will be a meeting soon, and I think we will get a new client. Mr. Coleman, one of our clients, wants to introduce a new partner this morning. He needs some cloth designs for his partner,” Sebastian informed her. “And this meeting is to start in ten minutes?!” Her eyes

    ~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,”
