At Lorene's Apartment.She got out of work and drove to a grocery store, got her needs, and hurried home to make a quick meal for his dream man. Thereafter, she took her bath, applied her cream, and smelled fresh.(Grrr) Came the doorbell. She looked at her time and it was 1:00 on the dot.“Wow. A very punctual man,” she muttered and hurriedly walked to the door. Her strapless camisole bra upon her cotton linen bum shot made her look sexy and hotter. Now, she adjusted her cleavage to expose more before she opened the door. She was greeted by a handsome gentleman from the Bailey family. The cologne scent emitting from his body was captivating. They locked eyes for a few seconds in silence before Stephen broke the hush.“Hi, I'm Mr. Bailey. I'm delighted to be privileged to know such a beautiful lady.”His voice wrapped up her body and she felt a tingling sensation on her nipples.“Kindly come in,” she said with a romantic smile.“Thank you,” he appreciated her and locked eyes with he
At that point, all his right fingers had gone in and out of her in quick succession, and he kissed and sucked. Then, she began to unbutton his shirt after he had pulled off his jacket.“What do I expect?” She whispered as she unbuttoned his shirt.“Though spontaneous, I will make it adventurous and a memorable one for us.”She smiled, pulled off his shirt, and went into action. Lorene discovered that she was a beginner in sex experience when compared to the sampler before her. She panted and sweated after they climaxed.“I have never had it like this before," she pointed out. Stephen, who was lying beside her on the couch, gave her a peck and asked, “Did I live up to my promise?”She turned her head towards him and said, “Yes, dear. You did.”(Kiss, Kiss)They had their lunch and continued their love escapades until the next morning. They dressed up and Lorene gave him a ride out.(Kiss, kiss)“I love you, my Queen," he said and slighted.“I love you, too. See you later.”She went to
They laughed scornfully at her. As the upcoming First Lady, Lorene raised her shoulders and sounded a note of warning.“Thank you so much, Mrs. Ugly Duckling, for your coordination. As the upcoming First Lady of the Bailey family, I won't have you continue to use the family name. See you later,” she said before they took their leave.“We shall see,” Nichole said ominously after they left. She laughed softly and murmured, “Two of a kind. Cotton-headed ninny muggings. I wish I had a secret camera in my office."She hissed and prepared to resume her work for the day.Trip To The Airport.Denise and Phil arrived at the Bailey Native Home in the nick of time with Denise's car.“Good day, Father. Good day, Mom,” Denise greeted them the moment they got into the house and met them waiting.“Good day, Father. Good day, Mom. I am happy to see you,” Phil greeted them as well.“Good to you to you. You came in the nick of time. Let's go,” Arthur said.They picked up their parent's luggage and wal
At Stephen's Resort.At 4 PM, irregular visitors began to arrive. The staff members were surprised to see such a group of people who were not qualified to visit the resort. They were poorly dressed and famished. Besides, they were unschooled and could not speak comprehensible English. The resort manager and his colleagues observed them as they trooped in with trepidation. “What are they looking for?” The manager asked one of the staff members.“I wouldn't know. This is my first time seeing them.”Then, the resort manager walked up to one of the visitors, looking down on his nose at him.“How may we help you, please?” The manager dared to ask and waited for a response. To his dismay, the visitor did not respond nor cast a glance at him. After waiting for a few minutes, he moved over to another visitor and got the same treatment. Now, he was lost on the next thing to do. At that point, the number of visitors had multiplied and outnumbered the staff members. However, after the visit
Now, the chanting increased and was heard in different directions.“Run for your lives. Explosive,” they shouted on top of their voices.Meanwhile, the Police Squad, who were at the scene to maintain law and order, retreated at once with their vehicles when they heard 'explosive'. It was the same story with the media crew, who could not pan their cameras. They dismantled their tripod stands and headed for the hills. Due to the turbulence, there was gridlock on the major road, which made vehicles impossible because some motorists ran out of their vehicles shambolically with their ignitions on. The pedestrians who were more interested in fleeing the area, were reckless about traffic rules. They impetuously crossed the roads, leaving the motorists who just got out of work dumbfounded.Nevertheless, everyone in the race had an idea of where they came from and where they were running to, except Jude, who had momentarily forgotten that he had not had any meal since the previous day. At th
At The Tourist Center.After Phil announced that ‘we are home’, Denise expected Jude to get out of the car but he did not. Then, he turned and looked at him and observed that his eyes were moist. He was moved to see a beggar tearing up and had the desire to help him.“What is the matter with you, Young man?” he asked him with concern.Phil noticed the tears, too, and was willing to help if he could. So, he waited for his response. Likewise, Jude allowed the tears to drop before he spoke, “I am starving. I ate last yesterday morning."After he made his problem known, there was a pin-drop silence for a few seconds before Denise turned to the driver and spoke, “Take us to the Tourist Center."“It is all right, Young Master," the driver obliged and moved.Even though Jude was depressed, he was attentive enough to hear the driver address him as the Young Master. He stole a glance at him and mulled over his discovery.'Are they not beggars? If not, who are they?'Soon, he found himself in
At The Tourist CenterAfter Denise and his team drove off, Robin took Jude to one of the single rooms and informed him, “This is your room for now. Make yourself comfortable.”“Thank you for this, Sir.”“Do not mention it. Do you want your dinner to be served here, or would you have it at the restaurant?”Jude, who was not exposed to such a dignified life, looked at him for a while before he made up his mind, “I will prefer here.”“It is all right. That is the menu list on the table. Let me have your order at once.”He looked at the menu and quickly placed his order, and volunteered, “I can pick it by myself if you permit me.”“Oh! Never mind. I will be back before you know it,” the Security Officer said and left with the order. For three years, Jude had not lived in a house nor slept on a bed. That night, he would not only sleep in a room and on a bed, but in a Five Star Tourist Center. The kind of cars that he saw in the car park revealed the caliber of guests that lodged at the ce
Denise’s and Phil’s POVDuring their meeting at Phil’s office on Thursday afternoon, they mapped out a plan on how to annihilate Stephen. After brainstorming, they came to a consensus that they had to visit the island that was home to the indigent members of the society incognito. When Denise’s late father, acquired the island from the government many years ago, he was faced with the problem of displacing them. In his benevolence, he reserved a portion for them, which they had occupied until that day. By way of appreciation, they ensured that the Tourist Center was free from any form of attack from any quarter, and they had been enjoying that bilateral relationship. That explained why Jude had never operated in that environment. After work, they disguised themselves like buskers and beggars by dressing shabbily and got to the island. They had five hundred pounds notes which they flaunted. Likewise, they tried as much as possible to adapt temporarily to the unkempt environment by ig
At The BarracksBrown arrived for the meeting at 7 AM. As the head of his family, he knew what to expect from the other Family Heads but he was prepared for them.“Good morning to you, our Patriarch,” he greeted him“Good morning, Brown. How are you?”“As you can see, I am good. What about you?”“I could not catch a sleep last night because of today’s meeting.”“It is expected. We cannot run away from our responsibilities.”“You are right. If those before us had run away from theirs, who knows where we would have been by now.”“You are right.”At that point, the scumbag, Stephen, walked in and greeted them, “Good morning, our Patriarch. Good morning, my Family Head.”The two elders did not bother to respond to his greeting nor glimpse at him. The Patriarch ordered without looking at his face, “Wait in the hall.”“Thank you, our Patriarch,” the momentarily repentant Stephen said, walked to the hall and took his seat. He watched the family heads trickling in gradually before the Patria
Denise paused and looked at her innocent face without responding, but she continued, “Are you still mad at me?”“Eat your food first,” Denise responded and kept feeding her. She took two more spoons and stopped. “I am okay. Thank you,” she sobbed.Unfortunately, Denise failed to respond to the situation. He was angry with the woman that he must save her life.‘I have to concentrate on saving her life first. I can get angry later,’ he advised himself and smiled. He scooped the food and then urged her, “Sweetheart, I don’t think you are okay. Just take more spoons and you will be okay.” Olivia saw it as an opportunity to strike a bargain with her husband, and she quickly asked, “Answer me. Are you still mad at me?”Denise smiled and asked her too, “Can I ever be mad at my beautiful Angel?”(Peck)She gave him a dampened smile and wiped the teardrops that trickled down her cheeks with the back of her hand. Denise was emotional at that point. He dropped the plate and the spoon on the
Now, he gave her a call for the second time. The phone rang several times and timed out.“She must have gone to sleep,” he concluded and went to sleep as well.At the Tourist Center.The Officer was happy with the changes in Jude’s composure. His youthfulness radiated as he was constantly happy. The moisture that usually gathered in his eyes whenever he wanted to speak was not there. He enjoyed making music with his piano rather than watching the television. When the Security Officer got to his room that afternoon for his lunch, he observed that he spoke freely with him; more like a relation than a stranger.“How is your day going, Jude?” he inquired.Jude smiled, paused from the keyboard, and responded, “My day is going well, Sir. And you?”“Fine. Your lunch is here.”“Okay. Thank you, Sir. How about the boss?”“The boss is good. He sent his love.”“Oh! I hope I will meet him soon.”“Yea! You will meet him sooner than you can imagine. Just relax.”“It is okay, Sir. Thank you for your
The clerks noticed the same attitude and were astonished. Without looking back, she walked to the car park, got into her car, and drove to the gate. She stopped and got out of the car. The Security men were surprised to see a woman who was raging a few minutes ago walking solemnly to their office. Quietly, she picked up her phone and drove away.‘What must have happened? Who is the President of the Bailey International Conglomerates?’ She mulled over and drove on. Nevertheless, she never considered calling Stephen, neither was she aware that she narrowly escaped the police arrest. Now, Denise had sent for the Security Officer who drove to the Admin Block after Lorene drove off.“You called me, Boss,” the officer stated.“Yes. Why did you call the cop on that woman?”“I did not call the cop, they just came.”“How? What do you mean by they just came?" Denise furrowed his brow and asked him.Incidentally, the security officer was not aware that Denise was not in the picture of the arra
At the Gate.‘He would be surprised to see me,’ she fantasized and parked. She honked with the confidence that she would not be turned back anymore. Then, the Chief Security Officer, who had seen many of her types since the previous week, walked up to her by himself.“Good day, Ma’am. How may I help you?” he asked her politely.The new face she was seeing for the first time looked more mature than the security guard who had embarrassed her the previous week. “I wish to see the President,” she said confidently.Now, the CSO observed her again and inquired, “Are you on an appointment with him, Ma’am?”“Yes. He must be expecting me. Please open the gate. I want to avoid keeping him waiting,” she made clear.The officer locked eyes with her and then declared with a mockery smile, “I see. Sorry, Ma’am. The President is not on the seat.”Just like anyone would be, with a surge of hostility and violence, she got out of her car and began to rant, “What do you take me for? A kid? After int
Under the present circumstances, Stephen’s head could not process the information he got at the same time. From the stranger’s speech, he grasped that he was aware of the issue at hand. Then, he looked at the two elders and inquired, “Oscar’s wife?”Stephen, whose purpose of visiting his Patriarch was to find a solution to the river of problems that was drowning him, had just discovered another problem.All the same, he had to straighten things out, “I don’t have anything to do with Oscar’s wife. I ….”However, the Patriarch and the Family Head thought that his explanations were lies and aggravated his already bad case. The Patriarch rose from his couch with his military demeanor and the might of the Patriarch of the Bailey’s family and thundered. “I will not hesitate to throw you out of the barracks after the soldiers have court-marshaled you if you think you can dance on our intelligence.”Now, Stephen was aware that he had screwed up and that making excuses would cause him more t
At the Barracks The daily drilling of the young soldiers, which Gen. Bailey looked forward to every morning, took place at 6 AM and lasted for one hour. As a matter of routine, he was in his studies, reading through the dailies after his breakfast, when he got the email from Barrister Guidance. He quickly read through it and was timorous. “Has Stephen gone nuts? How many women does he want to have at the same time?” The nonagenarian Patriarch asked while cold sweat formed on his forehead. He went through the mail again and discovered another serious point.“Accusing Arthur of using Nichole as a nanny is an insult that her children would not take. No wonder Denise was distraught during the meeting,” he thought.At that point, he got a call. He looked at his phone and discovered that the caller was Brown. He took a second look at his phone and vacillated between picking up the call and ignoring it. Shortly, the call timed out.When he was about to concentrate on his emails, he got a
After their breakfast, they prepared for work and got out of the house at once. Then, Lorene stopped him off.(Peck)“See you later, Love,” Stephen said and got out of her car.“Bye. Love,” she responded and drove off to the hospital. It was quite unfortunate. Stephen had devoted his love to her, who possessed all the attributes he needed in a wife, but she was in love with Arthur Bailey and not Stephen Bailey. “This is good. With a wife like Lorene and her friend Evelyn, I will have a blissful marriage,” he mumbled before he boarded a chartered taxi.Then, he sat comfortably in the back seat. While he was approaching his house, he turned on his phone to transfer the payment for the ride, but an epiphany occurred when he saw the different breaking news popping up on his phone. He punched on one of the news and saw his resort as a heap of rubble. Then, he looked at it critically to confirm that his eyes were not misleading him. When he confirmed it, he rested on the headrest of the
The other Family Heads attacked him at once and demanded, “Why did you not ask her son before he left?”Now, Zoey could not help but laugh. To defend himself and maintain his dignity, the Family Head explained, “I was about to ask him, but before I looked up, he had gone.”“Coward. You knew nothing but to insult and push a fellow Family Head," Brown blurted out and the Family Head rushed at him, but he was restrained by the other Family Heads. Then, the Patriarch ordered, “Go home, all of you. The meeting is over.”They began to file out one after the other, still barking and yelling at each other. Then, Oscar shouted, “Zoey, get into the vehicle and let us leave here.”Zoey glared at him and got into the car. She did not relent in rubbing it in his face, “Can you shout at me, Oscar? You could not raise your voice when it was necessary.”Oscar, who was used to such berating, ignored her. He turned on the ignition and drove off.At The Tourist Center After Denise got out of the cal
