I’m so pissed right now. I’m all dressed up waiting for his text, call or even his appearance yet nothing of sort. I’ve called him twice now and he didn’t answer. Is Liam messing around with me because this will be the final straw? I’m so done with all his shenanigans. I grab my purse and head over to his house. I ring the doorbell thrice and no answer. Liam Johnson, I just hope our paths don’t cross after this. Courtesy demands that you at least call or text if there was a change of plan but no. The door creaks open and Liam peeks his head out of the small space created. “Why are hiding behind the door? I can barely see you.”“That’s the point. I’m sorry I couldn’t call. I wasn’t feeling so good.”“Are you dressed?”“Yes but….”“There’s no but. Liam, I know you and that’s why I’m not going to ask you if you’ve called the doctor because I know you’ve not and will not.” I say pushing myself in.“I’ll be fine.”“That’s for the doctor to decide. Where’s Laura?”“She with my mum.”“I’m

I stare at her phone ringing for the umpteenth time. Asides from the fact that I feel like I've been hit by a truck, there's no way I'm going to notify her that a certain Frederick is calling her phone none stop. Okay maybe I'm exaggerating a bit. "Your phone has been ringing. I was too weak to bring it down." I say as she enters the room. "It's okay. Dr Philip said you should get a lot of rest and maximum rest is what you'll get.""I still smell like vomit even after changing clothes. I really need a thorough bath so as to get rid of this smell."Why am I getting a stare from Cara that says you just said something abominable. Oh, hope she's not thinking I'm insinuating she gives me a bath. "I'm not suggesting you give me a bath.""Good because I couldn't even phantom the thought.""Many women would jump at the offer.""I'm not one of those many women. Do you want me to help you to the bathroom or do I just mop your body?""Please assist me to the bathroom."I try my best not to pu

I hand over the drugs to him and a glass of water . He tries to hold the glass cup but his hand is shaking badly . "I'd help you pour some in your mouth , guess who the little baby is now ? " I say as I giggle and draw closer to help him use his drug . "Thank you" he says trying to force a smile . This is the first time in ages I'll see Liam weak and vulnerable. He has always made extra efforts to be take charge of every situation. He takes a sip from the glass and hurriedly throws the drugs down his throat. He struggles to swallow them . " I hope I never fall sick ever again." He mutters in frustration. I put a pillow at his back so he can sit a little upright for this food to digest. "Cara I know I'd be asking for to much but please can you stay at my place till I feel better, let's say five to six days . " I go mute for a moment and i minutes with my eyebrows raised. "That's a lot Liam, 6 days is a really long time ; that's approximately one week. " one a second thought, "I'd d

Words cannot express how grateful I am that Cara has been staying with me these past few days. She treats me like an egg and subtly, it makes me happy. Feels like it’s been ages since someone cared for me this much. It was a huge error on my part to even offer to pay her while she was here. She was offended. I'm glad I closed that chapter quickly and brought up an amusing topic.“What’s making you grin?” She asks “How long have you been standing there? ”“Not quite long. brought your dinner.”“Thank you. You should have called me rather than stress yourself by bringing it up. I can walk, remember?”“I don’t want you stressing.”“I’m not.”“I hope I don’t get addicted to eating your meals. You cook so well.”“You say this every day. Thank you.”“That’s because it’s the truth. The way you keep stuffing me with well-cooked meals morning, afternoon and evening. I hope I can make out of my door without struggling.”“Please, that’s too much exaggeration.” She says giggling.I love that She
Rekindle CARA
CARA“Somehow I love putting Liam on his toes. You can call me weird, I don’t mind. I understand that he is simply asking for a harmless outing to make up for how he previously treated me, to make things right, and to make the few remaining moments we have together special. I ponder for a few minutes while staring at Liam, "Liam has always been a really sweet soul and the softest person you can meet but acts so tough . I break the silence with a long, stretch, very audible sigh.“Liam you do not have to look gloomy, I’m sorry I reacted the way I did . I over reacted .” I say giving him my puppy-eyed expression while focusing on his eyes. “I just want to make you happy and see you happy for the longest of times” he says looking like a kid his mom took candy from . I I approach him and smile as I hug him. He brightens, and I am relieved. “Is that a yes then?” He asks me with the nicest smile. “It most certainly is,” I reply, extending my hand to shake his and signalling that the bu

“It’s so good to see you Rosa.” I say cheerily as I open my arms to hug her unfortunately she didn’t respond to it. “I’m so annoyed with you.”“What have I done this time?”“You’ve not been answering my calls!”“Because I know how you get when I’m sick. You wouldn’t even let me lift a piece of paper and I know your detection skills never fail you. There’s no way I could have hidden it if I decided to respond to your call.”“I forgive you because I know how I can be but you have to make it up to me.”“Definitely.”“Hope you are feeling a lot better because you look like it.”“I am.”“I dropped by the office and Veronica told me you’ve not been in for a while.”“Yes, I decided to take the week off.”“Liam I know would never take a leave except it has to do with Laura. Must have really been bad.”“Yes it was but the doctor insisted that I needed rest, a lot of it.”“Great. Where’s Laura?”“She’s with my mum. How’s traveling round the continent coming along?”“It’s been wonderful. Guess

I continually try to maintain a straight face but Rosa has her way with me. I am almost never serious around her. We enjoy teasing each other , She is my closest friend asides my friend from high school; Lucas Walter. He stays in Paris and comes once in a blue moon. His dad is a best friend and business partner of my dad. Our families had Sunday dinner together once in a month. His dad and mine will have some chitchat and go golfing afterwards, while Lucas and I drive down to the basketball court in the estate . I tried not to smile until Rosa says “ both of you will make a great couple” as she starts to hum to the popular “here comes the bride song used to usher the bride in at the church weddings.” I can already picture her in her a white , simple but well laced and stoned armless wedding gown , a simple but absolutely beautiful pearl pair of earring and bracelet , her perfect styled low bun and ultimately her smile that radiates and lightens up the whole room. “ she adds . As she

I had no choice but to tell Liam the reason I left and ended things was because my mum was critically ill and needed treatment. I also lied that I had to end things with him because I didn't know how the next days, months or years of my life would look like. Where I would be and so on. I didn't want to complicate things for him hence my reason for ending things with him. Having responded to his long troubled question, I'm assured that such question will not surface anymore. We both cried like babies and bid ourselves goodnight and the rest of the week he spent with his mum. He offered I came along but I rejected. A family dinner or breakfast at the table with his father is the last thing on my to do list. Right now I really don't care about his opinion on where Liam and I stand now. I've suffered too much and if being with Liam makes me happy then I will be with him regardless of what his father has to say. You sound so confident. Knowing you as well as I do, you'll be out of town
