Chapter 11
It's time for closing so I arranged the desk and packed my things and the things I will be needing at home for my unfinished design. Done with packaging I bid my colleagues goodbye before walking out to get a ride home. Still waiting for a taxi when black car parked in front of me which I had to move back in case the person wanted to open the door. I take two step away from the car which the car door was open and Kelvin came out of the car
"Hello Princess" is the first thing the guy said as soon as he got out of the car. I was surprised to see the person standing in front of me because he was the last person I expected to see. He keeps staring at me waiting for me to say something which I on the other hand don't even know what to say but I tried to speak up
"H..Hi" I stammered shyly of him and was short of words about our last encounter. I never in my wildest dreams think of ever seeing him again
Chapter 12Immediately it's closing time I left without adding any extra minutes. Already at my doorstep, I removed my phone from my bag to call Sam and Mia to come over so I can have some discussion with them which I had with Mrs Charlie. I really don't wanna take the risk of not telling them just like last time that they got angry with me for not telling them before taking the decision. I called them both before opening the door to my room, as I set my foot inside the room I threw my bag on the couch close by before removing my clothes. I had the intention to bath but I was too tired to do that so i lay on my bed to sleep for a while before they arrivedI was too tired to know when Sam and Mia came in but I know they each have a spare key which they go around with in case they want to come and rest or come to visit me which most of the times am always exhausted so for them not to disturb they with knocking they opened the door themselves.
Chapter 13I called Sam and Mia telling them to meet me at my work place during the break if they're free, so here I am patiently waiting for them to arrive since I told them I will be waiting for them at the coffee shop opposite the office. I have been waiting for them to arrive since but they have not. I was playing a game on my phone and checking the time at the same time before the break was over. Busy with the game that I am playing I didn't know when they arrived until Sam collected the phone from my hand, which I raise my head and see them both standing "Hey guys""Hi Lilly. We're sorry we're late, traffic" Sam said"It's okay, just arrived not quite long. Let order for something am hungry" with that I called the waiter, tell him what we want before we started discussing"So babe, what's up" Mia said"Well, have come to a conclusion about Mrs Charlie offer"
Chapter 14Quietly sitting in the backyard still thinking about what just happened some hours ago, I don't know what has actually gotten into me because I know very well I am not supposed to get attached to anybody for the time being because of the pregnancy. I have to complete the necessary procedure before I get into any kind of relationship. Then the bitter truth is down on me who knows maybe he won't reciprocate the love I have for him or even like me if he finds out I'm carrying someone else's child. I know I am just wasting my time on him since I am just crushing on him from far without him knowing but I wish I could have him all to myself which I know it's impossible. I know he only kisses me because he's drunk. If not, what will he do with the likes of me? If he's in his real state of mind he won't even take a glance at me talkless of kissing me. I sigh and get up from where I was seated and walk inside to continue my work.•
I'm confused and speechless standing there looking at my crush, the man I almost had sex with, the man that kissed me yesterday for which I couldn't sleep properly thinking on how or where to see him his right here in front of me. I'm going to be my crush's wife surrogate. The man who had been dying to have all to myself is already taken and married, which is popularly known in the whole of Ghana even though I just got to know his name but not him in person. It's Mrs Charlie that break the tension seeing we don't want to speak up which speaks up first because we both were still staring at each other forgetting about her"Can one of you just tell me what the hell is going on here or did you both know each other before?" she asked looking between me and her husband "one of you should speak up and tell me something. What the hell is going on here? making me look like a fool in your midst" she shouted angrily"And what the hell did you wan
It's closing time already while Sam is outside waiting patiently for me to come so we can go since I will be going to his place then from there I will go for my night shift. About to enter the car when my phone rings which stopped me from entering the car. I bring the phone out from my mini bag seeing it's not a known number I decided not to pick but the person called again " Hello" I said through the phone"Hello Lilly, where have you been ? And I hope you're fine and okay? I asked the maid to call you earlier but told me you're not responding""I'm sorry I left earlier than planned. Don't worry I'm safe and sound""That's good. I personally went to your room thinking you were in the bathroom that why you didn't answer the maid. Once again I'm sorry about yesterday incident, I don't know maybe it's because of that you left early without having your breakfast. Please do try and come, I promised you that eve
Chapter 17I will be going clubbing with Sam and Mia today, since it's been a long time since we went clubbing even though I told Sam and Mia that I am not going since I have nothing to do there but they Insisted I go with them so here I am dressing up for the club.Kelvin on the other hand has been disturbing me non-stop, telling me he wants to see me or he will visit which I don't think him visiting me is a good idea so have been giving him different kind of excuse so he won't think of coming but I called him tonight informing him to meet me at the club we first met. I opened the back door and was about to go out when I bumped into someone.I looked up to see Mr Charlie standing at the doorstep. I shifted a little bit back before I stepped aside and walked out on him but unfortunately he held me back " can you just leave my hand for me?" I said taking away my hand from his grip"And where do you think you're going by this time of the
Chapter 18Loving someone and keeping it's a secret is though.*************************I was pacing up and down in the room thinking about what just happened between me and Mr Charlie, my crush. I felt suffocated in the room but couldn't go out. I don't want to have any encounter with Mr Charlie, not after what transpired between us. I know I shouldn't have given in, I don't know what to think again because I feel like Mrs Vivian is going to find out about what we did in this room. I wished I could just leave because I betrayed the trust Mrs Vivian had for me. I just wished I could take the hand of clock backward then I wouldn't have Charlie had his way withI went into the toilet and bath. Maybe I will feel a little bit at ease but no I felt nothing like that. Rather the scene just keeps replaying in my memory as if it's just happened now. That means I have ruined everything between me and K
Chapter 19I tried my possible best to avoid mr Charlie as a plague, and I mean human plague because I don't want to have anything to do with him, I know the first time was a mistake which I don't want it to repeat itself. I don't know what he will come with next time so I'm trying my possible best to go far away from him before he caused problem for me with his wife which she has been nothing but sweet to me that I'm still feeling bad for having sex with her husband behind her back and that again in her matrimonial home. I'm getting ready for work but I want to be sure Mr Charlie is not around or any where close to my room. I quietly tip toe out of my room like a thief not wanting to be caught because that exactly how I could describe my action I successfully tip toe out of the house with seeing him which I rushed to the carI sighed out immediately I entered the car glad I wasn't caught nor seen by Mr Charlie which I'm happy for that. The
Chapter 40Father came back and had a discussion with Charlie which I didn't listen to because I was busy with Rafael which he slept off and I took him to the room knowing fully well he's not going to wake up anytime soon. I dressed up and walked out to see Charlie already waiting in the car so I bid father farewell before walking over to meet him "so" i said immediately I get comfortable in the car"What?" He asked"What did you discuss with my father?" I asked him"We have concluded to have the wedding in two months time""What?" I shouted "that's too close and I haven't prepared yet" I complained"What else did you need to prepare for?" He asked"The wedding of course""You said a simple wedding which will take place in a church so I don't think you need any preparation for that"
39I didn't know what came over me that I didn't push him away but maybe because I missed him I kissed him back but stopped in my track recalling where we were "we have to stop someone might come in" I said which I don't think Charlie gets what I was saying "let's go to the car but promise me you won't drive off""I promised" with that being said he picked me up and continued kissing me while we walked into his back seat where he lay me down removing my clothes leaving me in nothing because it's just a short gown I am wearing without bra or pants which gives him more access to do whatever he wishes with me. I don't know why he likes breast so much because immediately he set his eyes on my breast his eyes become darker which he quickly began to suck on it while he play with my pussy I didn't stop him because I was enjoying the pleasure his giving me seeing his the only one pleasuring me I grab his member into my hand and begin to stroke
38Charlie povEver since Vivian's death I couldn't think straight so I decided to give myself a break from everything when I know deep down I have people to take care of especially my child but I don't seem to be doing things right which I think I need time to collect myself back before going back to my former self.I know the last few month begre Vivian death we were the best of couple but we were once deeply in love until decides to take her job her major priority than me her husband which lead t everything but I shoulder blame her alone knowing fully well I was also at fault but losing her makes me realize how much she means to me because I missed her so much that it's hurt me so I did what I think was best for me "Mike takeover all the company for now I will be out of the town for a while" I had said to my PA which I off my phone that instant and flew out of the country without informing anyone where I was goi
37I sat on the doorstep crying recalling our last discussion "I know you will take good care of the baby and charlie" I weep harder "have forgiven you for everything and I promised not to sue you" she had said on that fateful day which I never knew she was saying goodbye to me. She even went shopping for me and showed me love. She was there for me any slight chance or opportunity she has even when she's not around she makes sure her maids take care of me and there I was having affair with her husband even had sex with him under her roof when she's around or not.I cried to the extent that my tear gland was dry but couldn't get up from my position till Mia arrived and picked me up "what happened to you lilly?" She asked concern which I begin to weep again"I betrayed her trust and cheat on her with her husband now she's gone without me seeking for her forgiveness" I wiped"Shhhh who is gone?"
36The next day the doctor came and checked on me and he asked a few questions and I replied which he left. I was hoping his gonna discharge me but that didn't happen so here I am still in the hospital walls which I dislike so much but glad father is here by my side to look after me and the baby while Sam and Mia come whenever they closed from workHave been sleeping throughout the day so I didn't know maybe Vivian came or not which I couldn't bring myself to ask father nor Sam even though it's not a big deal still in the train of my thoughts when Sam speak up "Mrs Adams said she will be coming over today" Sam said"She shouldn't have bothered herself I will soon be discharged""You can tell her to go back when she comes" he replies"I'm not that rude""Say that to someone that doesn't know you" he said and walked out with the baby in his hand whi
35I couldn't stop looking at the baby because without no one telling me I could clearly see that the child belonged to me and Lilly because the resemblance is there. He took every little bit of our feature but who am I to say it out loud that's the baby is hers and not Vivian there and then I recalled the day I had sex with her without any protection which lead to this but I won't say am disappointed rather am glad because atleast she's hook to me in one way or the other Vivian decided we go for shopping for the baby which I complied because everything she says now is what I follow.We spent some hours shopping before she finally said it's time we go which we went directly to the hospital to dropped what we bought "honey when we go there please I need some time alone with Lilly" she pleaded"Alright but you have to make it snappy because you haven't rested for the day" I said while she smiled and kissed me. When w
34I woke up and the first thing I heard was the baby's cry which made me open my eyes quickly even though they felt heavy. I opened it just to see Vivian holding the infant tears streaming down her cheek. I couldn't speak up seeing the sight in my front then Vivian raise her head and saw me "you're awake?" It's come out more like her asking herself than me because of how her voice is "called the doctor" she said to Charlie standing behind her before she moves closer to me handing the baby over to me"Thank you Lilly" she whispered which I smiled a little bit at her and the doctor arrived Charlie following right behind him"How do you feel, Miss Lilly?" Asked the doctor if I wanted to speak up but my throat was dry, and the doctor noticed, "Please help her with a cup of water." He said that Sam helped with the water. I drink the water and felt a little better before speaking up"I'm fine" I rep
33I sat there expecting the inevitable "go and come back later I will soon be through" the doctor said which it's the only thing I could grab from their conversation the nurse left and he turned to me " well she has just a week to go" he responds"What?" I shouted "tell me you're joking or something else'' I said not believing when I know deep down he's not going to lie to me"I know it's come unexpected but I'm sorry to say that's the bitter truth and the reality of it" he tried to calm me down which I just sat there not knowing what to think again"So what happens in the final stages of glioblastoma?"I couldn't help but asked"Well glioblastoma is a brain tumor so seizure occurred in nearly half of the patients in the end-of-life phase more especially in the one-third of the patients in the week before dying. Other common symptoms reported in the end life phase are progr
Chapter 32After getting back to my sense I quickly ambled out of the room and open the next door but I couldn't find her in the room"baby" I shouted going down the stairs "baby" I called again but got no reply which I quickly walked down the stairs about to trip when i quickly grab the handle "Vivian" I screamed on top of my voice shouting her name but got no reply which I saw one of the maids standing down the stairs "where is my wife?" I shouted which the maid shifted back a little bit scared of how I'm shouting "where the hell is my wife?" I asked shouting at her as if she's the one hiding my wife which makes her to shift a little bit away from me before she opens her mouth to speak but couldn't speak up due to the way she's shaking "answer me" I shouted at her seeing she's wasting my time"She.. she..." she stammered all her body shaking from fear "she.. she walked out the door" she replies shakingly which I didn't wait fo
