JULIEI got back from Adam’s place that night exhausted. We didn’t engage in any sexual activity, but it was like the whole conversation had an effect on me. I got home some minutes past 11pm and I didn’t want to disturb Madam Morello or Bryan, whom I knew would be long gone somewhere in dreamland, probably eating all the chocolates I wouldn’t let him eat in reality.I had my own key, so there was no need to call her to come get the door. I just got in and walked straight to my room to get a shower and retire for the night.“Who’s there? Julie?Is that you?” I heard Madam Morello’s voice.I guess I thought wrong. She was still wide awake. She was probably up hoping I would come home earlier like I had promised.“Oh! Hey, ma’am. Still awake?” I paused my steps and walked towards her.“Yes, I am. I just got up ‘cause I heard the door squeak. Had to come make sure it wasn’t some intruder” She rubbed her eyes and made for the kitchen.“The house is calm, which means little man is asleep” I
JULIE“Mum! Mum! I think you have a call” Bryan yelled from the living room where I left my phone of the couch.If it was a few months ago, he would have picked up the call without caring to know who the caller was.“Oh! Let me get my hands dry. Hand me that napkin, baby” I pointed to the blue napkin close to him.“Okay, mummy!” He did as I asked.“Oh! Lisa. I can only wonder why she’s calling as early as this” I dabbed my palms with the napkin and picked up the call.“Hey babygirl!” I said excitedly.“Young woman! Do you prefer I get a heart attack before you pick up the damn phone?” She fumed.“Relax! You’re too aggressive, Lisa. When last did you get some good sex?” I joked.“That’s none of your business. Why didn’t you pick up all these while?” She was still annoyed.“Calm down, Lisa. I have been in the kitchen trying to prepare something for the day. I wouldn’t have known you were calling if not for Bryan who just brought me my phone now. You know I would never intentionally igno
JULIE“Mwah! I love you too”I was getting my own pound of flesh being a pain in Lisa’s ass, but I knew how brutal hers usually was.“Okay then. I just need to round up with this cooking and get a good rest and we would get prepared” I concluded.“You could stop the cooking. There’s more than enough dishes here for everyone”“I really wish I can, but I’m like midway into in and I can’t just turn back now”“Was it the date that got you this tired? I didn’t want to point it out, but you sound really exhausted. Are you sure it’s just a date you had or was there something else involved?” She inquired.“Get off my phone, Lisa. I will fill you in on everything when I get there. There’s a lot I need to tell you”I finally concluded I was going to tell Lisa the truth about everything. I was ready to damn whatever consequence that it would result in. At least, it would be better than keeping it any more longer.All she would do is get mad, but she would still come around. Besides, I planned
JULIE“I’m sorry about that. I know you must have been so worried about me. It’s just that I have been battling with this crazy headache since I woke up this morning” I explained.“Headache? Have you had any drugs yet?” He asked.“Yes, I have. But it seems the pains have developed some sort of firewall against the drugs. I could barely get up to make something this morning”“Oh, sorry about that. I think you should get some rest. I’m sure it’s the drinks from last night and you’re not used to being on the road that late, right?”“’Yes yes. It’s funny I didn’t throw up when I got home last night”“Well, like I said, get some rest. Before that, you have to eat and have a warm bath. That would also help in easing the pains” He suggested.“Alright. I’ll do just that, Adam” I replied, knowing fully well that I was too tired to even get up again and take myself to the bathroom.“Okay then”“That’s enough about me. Tell me how your night went” I adjusted my head on the pillow.“Pheww! I mus
JULIEBryan hadn’t gotten a rest ever since I told him we’d be attending Tracy’s party. I was certain he was even more excited than the celebrant. His eyes were glued to the television throughout my sleep, but his mind was a;ready at Lisa’s place. Little wonder he went as far as keeping tabs on the time to know when to take his bath and wake me up, even without me asking.I got up and we both headed to his room to pick an outfit for him.“Baby, won’t you like to eat before we head out?”“No, mummy. I already had cereals when you were asleep” He declined.“And you were filled?”“Yes mummy. Can I wear this?” He picked up a green incredible hulk T-shirt.“Yes. Is that what you want?”“Yes, mummy”“Alright then. It can along with these denim shorts and sneakers on your bed. Put them on and stay in living room. I’ll go get dressed now” I concluded and left his room.I was happy we didn’t spend much time picking out an outfit for him. I was ready to say Yes to whatever choice he made.By t
JULIE"Haha! I'll give that a thought" She replied."Well... Don't get too proud though, but you really look stunning today. One would mistake you for the birthday girl, and I wouldn't even blame them, 'cause you look it!" I complimented her."I know that already, girl. I mean, with all the planning and stress I've been through the past days just to give Tracy a good enough party, I as well deserve a cake and a birthday girl tiara" She wiped off an imaginary dirt from her her sleeves."You're such a proud woman!" I rolled my eyes at her again."Again, I know that already, Miss Humble Pie of Nevermore Land" She mocked, and we both laughed."Nice party you've got here" I commended as I admired the setting around me."Thank you, Julie. Wait! How were you able to fine the right gown for Tracy?" She asked, like she suddenly remembered."Oh! About that... I honestly did not know what size she would be. I just imagined how she looked and took a wide guess. Although I was actually scared of p
JULIE"Why? Why would I stop talking to you? Don't tell me you're already drunk. It's barely 13% alcohol" She was confused."Just promise me, Lisa""You didn't kill your date, did you? Waoh! It was my husband right? Was it? Was it?" She sat up ready to launch at me if my answer to the latter was affirmative."Eww, Lisa. Why would I even think of going on a date with your husband? I would never do such!" I was disgusted by what she said."Eww? You mean my husband is not attractive enough to go on a date with? Is that what you're trying to say?" She questioned."Stop, Lisa. Please! How did you even arrive at that conclusion, for fuck's sake?""Okay okay. I'm just thinking aloud""Please, I have no interest or business with your man, and it hurts me that you think I would do such a thing to you""Alright. I'm sorry about that. So, what happened, then?""I want you to promise me you won't cut me off or even flare up after this" I asked one more time."Okay. Now, you're beginning to scare
ADAM“You can’t be serious, Max. You mean, they had to pull out after they found out we launched?” I was shocked.“Trust me, Adam. I ran a quick survey yesterday and discovered that they haven’t been in business for some weeks now” Max returned.“Oh wow!”“And from the comments I’ve been seeing on social media, it seems they weren’t able to keep up with the wave we have been pulling in just a few weeks after launch” He continued.“Crazy! This means we’ll have to intensify whatever marketing strategies we’re making use of. The aim is to overshadow every other brand and be the go-to sportswear brand in the whole of London” I said, stroking my beards.“Yes, yes! Now, we have people talking about us in a positive light, we need to keep being in their faces, and that means coming up with innovative designs and all that” He recommended.“That’s not a problem at all. I already scheduled a meeting with Julie and a few others. We’ll be discussing our next moves, before we put it out to the res
ADAMI got Max and Samantha fired the next morning without thinking twice about it. Unlike Max that tried to make an appeal, Samantha was very proud of the act and showed no remorse about it. I sent them both away and threatened to get them arrested if I ever saw them around the company.The past weeks had been a roller coaster for me. First, it was me thinking Julie had betrayed me, and sending her away. Then, it was Max, someone I regarded as one of my closest friends.I wasn’t surprised about Samantha being the mastermind of it. She hated Julie with everything in her and never failed to show it at the slightest chance she got. But, Max? He was way too close to Julie; her closest friend in the office. I never expected such from him.I didn’t know how to approach Julie with everything that had happened the past days. I mean, I sent her away for the second time without even hearing her out. That was so cruel of me.I tried calling her, but her line wasn’t reachable. I had to go see he
ADAM“I have no intentions of hurting you, Adam”When Julie came back, I did nothing but take her in with good cheer. I never knew all along, the plan was to get back at me because of what happened between us six years ago.I spent days brooding over what the one person I loved so much did to me. The betrayal pierced so deep into my heart that I couldn’t get over it. I tried so hard not to believe it was true. I so wanted to to be all a joke or prank.With how innocent she looked, one would hardly suspect she had such an evil intention towards me.I mean, we already bonded so deeply and I was planning on moving her and Bryan to a more befitting apartment close to me, until she was mentally ready to move in fully with me.My major worry was Bryan. It had been over two weeks Julie left and I couldn’t reach her again. A part of me strongly doubted if Bryan was really my son like she said, or if it was all part of her lies to get closer to me, to execute what she had in mind all along.I
JULIE“You have broken the trust I had for you, Julie. Goodbye”Adam’s word kept ringing in my head as the days went by. I tried but just couldn't get over it.I tried to recall everything that happened that fateful day. It was just so fast and scripted perfectly that I didn’t even have the chance to think about what was happening around me.Adam didn’t give me a listening ear either. It was like he was under a spell or hypnosis. The evidence was there; it was their world against mine. I was unknowingly with an official document of the company, which shouldn’t even be in my possession in the first place.I wasn’t given the chance to explain myself, which made me disappointed in Adam. I was sure he thought of me as evil and didn’t want anything to do with me again,The look of betrayal on his face said it all and it took a lot of self-control from him not to get me arrested at that point. Rather, he sent me away again.“Who could have been behind this?” I asked myself.Only Samantha ca
JULIEIt had been two months since things got completely rosy between Adam and I. Two months since he finally introduced himself to Bryan as his father.Things have been going so smoothly ever since. I usually sent Bryan off to his place to go spend some weekends. Sometimes, at Adam’s request, others, just because I wanted to have some “Me” time without Bryan’s problems.Soon, we came to an agreement that Bryan would be spending the weekends at his place, when Adam would be free enough to relate well with him. I also went over to see him when I could and he never failed to have sex with me whenever I was at his place.Things were finally back to normal, as I always wished for. Everything seemed to be going well. Samantha no longer threw herself at Adam. Seemed she had swallowed the bitter pill at last.I was supposed to meet with Max and a certain client at a hotel lounge, with a sealed document Max gave to me the previous day at the office. According to him, the document was for a bu
ADAMIt had been a week since father visited me in my office, seeking to be in the know of what was happening between Samantha and I. He left the office in utter shock after I had told him I had a baby child with Julie.All those years, just like me, he thought that Julie got rid of the pregnancy like I had commanded her to. He had nothing else to do at that point; there was no other way he could help Samantha talk to me, because my mind was already made up.As soon as I got to work the next day, I angrily sped off to Samantha’s office to confront her about what just happened.“How dare you try to involve my father in my personal life? What gave you the guts to do that?!” I thundered at her.She fidgeted, as she had never seen me in such mood before. She tried to calm me, but I wasn’t having any of that.It wasn’t enough that she kept on forcing herself on me, she also had to drag my dad into something he had no business with. That was way out of line.“I know everything. He told me.
ADAMIt had been a week since I had the most mind-blowing sex in a while. A week since I got to spend quality time with the woman I loved dearly. Also a week since Julie told me that Bryan was my seed- a result of one of the numerous sex we had when we were still together six years ago.The news was the best thing my ears ever heard in years. Not even the launch of the fashion brand could rival the joy the knowledge of Bryan being my son, brought me.Everything seemed brand new to me ever since I got the news. I smiled more as my happiness knew no bounds.For so long, I always imagined what it would be like, having my own son, whom I’d give everything he ever wanted. The fact that Bryan was one smart kid, warmed my heart the more.“He’ll go on vacations in any country of his choice” I thought to myself.“I think I should get him a car and a driver who would be taking him anywhere he wants to go to” I thought again.“No, that would be too much” I disputed.“Nah! Nothing is ever too m
JULIEI just had the best sex of my life and instead of feeling used and disgusted at myself, I felt satisfaction like never before. Prior to that day, I never realized how much I needed the orgasm that came from a session of intense sex.It was as as if my whole body had a total revamp; like every organ got changed and became brand new. I had goosebumps all over me for a long time as I laid on the bed with Adam.My legs were still feeling shaky from the climax it just went through and my pussy felt sore. I didn’t care. I had gotten the satisfaction I needed and I was open to more, regardless of how tired I was.I never planned to have sex with Adam. It was never my intentions to get intimate with him. The plan was to go to the wedding with him, spend some time, dance, then get home to have my rest. But the incident with Max which changed my mood, got me craving something to ease myself of the mood swing and sex was just the perfect fit to my puzzle.Adam, on the other hand, panted he
JULIEThe ride back to Adam’s place was a calm one. As I sat next to him at the passenger seat, I couldn’t help but have a feeling of relaxation all over me. Just like at the wedding, a soft melodic romantic song was drifting from the car speakers and this made the atmosphere even more serene.He stared down at me and touched my face calmly, while I snuggled up into his warm embrace. With his arms around me, I felt nothing but safe.Justin was focused on his driving and constant humming to the music. It was like the classic romance movies I grew up watching, only that this time, I was the main character in it.“How are you feeling now?” Adam’s deep sensual voice calmly pierced into my ears.“I’m feeling a bit better. If we could stay in this position longer, I might feel completely better” I said and giggled.“You are permitted to stay for a long as you want” He rubbed my shoulders with his palms.“I’m sorry I had to make you leave the wedding earlier” I apologized.“It’s fine, Julie.
JULIE“Hi, Max” I managed to say.I looked at him and looked away almost immediately. I was so ashamed to look at Max for long. He faked a smile, but I knew that deep down, the smile meant nothing but the feeling of being betrayed and disgust for me.Adam stared at me as I acted weird. I was sure he expected me to be all happy seeing Max, but my countenance was just the direct opposite.“Is everything okay? You both are acting very awkward right now, like you just saw a ghost. Or, did you?” Adam asked, looking around in search of the presumed ghost.“Hahaha! I’m sure she’s just too tired, or maybe she never expected to see me here” Max responded, still smiling at me.As his smile grew wide, all I could see was a broken man, masking it with laughter. I had to cheer up to avoid any further interrogations from Adam.“Yeah. That might be the reason, I guess” Adam nudged my shoulder.“I never knew you’d be coming along with her, though. I expected you’d be here alone” Max continued.“Well…
