Take Me Back, Love Chapter 30: Unknown
"Hi, guys." I grinned, waving, I just started a video call with Georgina and Lila."Babe," Georgina said boringly."Sam, how are you?" Lila beamed."You called today? What a surprise!" Georgina said, throwing a handful of chips into her mouth."Indeed a surprise. Is there any special occasion going on? Did you wake up to the wrong side of the morning?""No, guys. I called to say 'hi' to you, together." "Dummy," Georgina said for no good reason. "How are you spending time with your boyfriend over there?" She winked."Boyfriend? What Boyfriend?""Your boss, Alvin. You're viral on the internet, baby. Let your followers know I'm your best friend so they can follow me too to check out my cool ass." She smiled smugly.Lila rolled her eyes. "Is it true? Are you dating him now? So soon?""No way!" I furrowed my forehead."Why not? The internet says you are." Georgina drew her eyes in askance, "Are you lying to us?""You don't have to believe everything you see on the internet." Lila frowned.
Take Me Back, Love Chapter 31: Party
"Sam, the party is tonight." Alvin reminded me like I didn't know that already. I guess we were sticking to Sam and no longer 'Miss Mark' now. I stopped myself from glaring at him but I ensured my face didn't read any friendly expression."Aren't you excited for it?""What's so exciting about the stupid party?" I scoffed.He rolled his eyes, walked up to me on the couch, and sat beside me. That was not an action that was comfortable for me."Go to my room, there's a box on the bed. It's for you." He said indifferently, taking the remote control from the table to turn on the television.I wanted to ask questions about what it was but sitting beside him was so discomforting so I instead rose to my feet and sauntered to his room. What could he have gotten me? If I was so curious, I had to check it. Duh, what else was I going to do? Not check?The door wasn't locked so I strolled in and to the bed. There was a big box on the bed, increasing my curiosity. Without lifting it first to take i

Immediately the chauffeur brought the Limousine to a stop, flashes from phones and cameras or whatever already filled around us. And yes, this was my first time being in a Limo. The chauffeur got out of the limo and turned around to open the door for us. Alvin was the first to step out of the Limo then he extended his hand towards me for me to accept it. "Why?" I gruffed.He was wearing a grin I could easily tell was fake and was for the public. "Be sensible." He said through grinning teeth.Defeatedly, I accepted his hand then he helped me out of the car. I was almost deafened by squealings from people and I almost went blind by the number of flashes around. Random people kept squealing and were attempting to touch us but there was the presence of bouncers that were stopping them from doing so.Though it seemed like forever, we were able to pass through the stage of the bunch of people and their screaming. We got into the hall and the atmosphere was more friendly. From the golden cha

"Thank you so much, I received it earlier today and I'm damn grateful."Lila said from the other end of the line."It's nothing.""Are you kidding me? Another $10,000?! I'm certain it's got something to do with your boss, let him know I'm very grateful. The Doctor has assured me that Mom's surgery would be great and she'd be fine on or before next week.""Really?" A grin appeared on my lips."Yes. And I can notice the improvement in her health, she's doing really great and it's all thanks to you and God. Our Mother would be fine soon.""Wow, I'm super excited!" I squealed, feeling the greatest form of joy building up in my belly. I was beyond exhilarated. I really wanted to jump on the couch and scream my internals out to express this triumph."If it's got anything to do with your boss, please thank him a million times and give him a chance. I'll call you later. Bye."Whether or not I had admitted it, I had been so scared of Mia dying. She was the only family I had left except Lila, a

"Whoa, a visitor." Georgina said, referring to Lila and shut the door behind her."Oh, she's here." Lila rolled her eyes, crossing her legs on the couch."Of course I'd be here because I live here." She scoffed, walking up to us on the couch and dropped her bag to the floor carelessly."Oh, right. She does. I think I forgot that." She replied sarcastically. Georgina sat on the couch opposite to the one we sat on. "You definitely forgot that." She turned to me. "How's your boss now? Should I be expecting to be an Aunt to a Millionaire baby now?""Georgina, jeez." I picked a throw pillow and threw it at her.She burst into laughter. "What? I should expect that, you were literally living with him. By the way, when did you arrive? I was out with my sugar daddys." She winked."Wow, such a statement to announce proudly" I replied sarcastically. "I arrived yesterday.""Oh, so... your boss doesn't tell me you haven't agreed to give him a chance."Lila drew her eyes in askance."Yes, yes, I

He still held my hand to lead me out of the barrier of chairs then led me out of the restaurant. I was welcomed by the coolness of the evening breeze greeting my skin with its wonderful harmony playing in my ears. The moon was shining its glory in my direction, enough to make me fall in love with it in an instant more than Alvin."Let's go." He continued holding me, and began walking on the pavement.We still maintained silence for the next few minutes, only swinging our linked hands."Sam," he called, breaking the silence and I glanced at him to catch his graceful smile. "I love you."That was so unexpected so it sounded awkward and made nervousness ignite in me."We've talked about my crazy father but it'd be nice to talk about you.""About me?""Yes.""Talk about me to me?""Kinda, but related to me.""Weird but go on.""There was a day I met you in a store then I secretly followed behind you."He chuckled. "You were with a woman I assumed was your friend, then you both bumped into
Take Me Back, Love Chapter 36: Birthday
"We'll burst the door open then yell 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY'," Lila whispered."Silly, it's not Mia's Birthday." I whisper-yelled with a roll of my eyes."Oh, yeah. Sorry, again. I'm just too excited, so it's making me confused." I glanced at the small cake in her hands then back at her face. "Be sensible."She rolled her eyes. "Whatever. Don't forget; Mom, not Mia.""Yeah, right.""Be sensible." She added.I turned the doorknob and pushed the door inwards, walking in first with Lila following behind me."Happy Recovery!" I said at the same time Lila said-"Happy Birthday!"Mia, who was seated on the bed, chuckled."Lila," I glared at her."'Sorry, sorry, whatever." She walked past me and to Mia on the bed, arching her back to kiss Mia's cheek. Mia giggled. "Thank you."I also advanced to her and kissed her cheek, which made her giggle again. "I'm glad the surgery is finally over.""I am too, thank you so much.""We brought cake," Lila extended the cake, grinning."Thank you too, but I can't
Take Me Back, Love Chapter 37: Danger
"Next time, if you walk into a room and notice me frowning, it's either because I haven't seen you yet and I was missing you, or it's something else and you shouldn't hesitate to ask me about it. You can calm me down with a touch or make things even better, a kiss." He held the arms of my chair to cage me."You are late to work today, you'll have to pay for that." He smirked."P-pay?""Yes, in a gentle way. You made me wait for you for so long, don't I deserve a kiss? Why are you always late?""I already stopped arriving late, even before we traveled to Australia.""I don't believe that, you're late today, again, so you must pay for it." He pulled my chair closer to him and drew his lips to my ear."I love you." He whispered into it. The way his lips grazed my ear made goosebumps form on my skin, from my neck. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. "I have to resume work.""You work for me, it shouldn't bother you if you're not working yet, as long as it's because of me. By

~ Samantha Reese ~~ {Flashback} ~"Please get the door, Samantha Reese." Lila requested, rolling her sleeves up. "I'm the pregnant one here, I shouldn't be overworking.""Getting the door isn't overworking. Stop being so lazy." I groaned and reluctantly rose to my feet, sauntering to the door and opening it.I was so surprised to see Faith standing by the door, grinning from ear to ear, holding a small bag. I opened my mouth to speak but she pulled me into a hug. "Gosh, I missed you. I'm so glad you're fine." I smiled, returning the hug.I gently pushed her by her shoulders."I didn't expect to see you here. Please come in."Shutting the door after she walked in, we took our seats on one of the sofas."Mr. Robert asked me to come here. As your maid, I should be at your service, no matter where you are.""Oh, that's great. I missed you too. Doing some things on my own feels like a lot of work now." I admitted and she chuckled."Then it's a great thing I'm here. Is there anything yo

~ Alvin ~Another frustrating day without Samantha Reese. I had been checking the internet on how to make your angry wife forgive you but it all seemed to be pointless. It was high time I gained the courage to call that stubborn woman I called my wife.I picked up my phone and searched for her name in the contact list. Just one click and the phone was going to be ringing but it felt like the biggest deal in my entire life, it felt like an issue of life and death. I had never been this scared in my life. I succumbed to it and called her. It kept ringing continuously but there was no response.I sighed and dropped the phone on the bed but flinched when I heard, "Hello?"I picked up the phone, staring at the screen like it was a dream."Hello?" Oh my gosh, that voice, I missed it so damn much. I immediately went into a trance after hearing it."It's probably a butt-dial, ignore it." I heard Lila say.I snapped out of my trance and exclaimed, "No! Wait!""Oh, it's real.""What do you wan

~ France ~"Georgina, it's so nice to see you again," I said as Georgina sauntered to take a seat beside me, dropping her clutch on the counter."Yeah, really nice. You probably remember me from Samantha Reese's wedding or something.""Uh..." I scratched the back of my head. That was not the only time we had met. Who could forget Georgina after so many plays we had had together in the past? "Of course not." I chuckled nervously.She smirked. "Great! I was wondering how anyone could ever forget this nasty Georgina after so many times together. So you're simply ignoring me?" She ordered herself a bottle of drink."Georgina Bend, it was long ago, okay? I wasn't ignoring you or anything, it was just supposed to be one-night stands."She laughed out boisterously."One-night stands that happened about a million times?" She rolled her eyes, chugging down a glass of alcohol in one drought."Okay, I agree with that. It has been so long, about 5 or 6 years ago. We were still in college, woman

"Samantha?" I asked again, scanning her from head to toe. Maybe I might've heard the wrong name.They paused, gazing at me."Do you know her?" Dash asked."Of course not. Where on Earth am I supposed to know such a disgusting person?""I'm so surprised to know you decided to go after such a cheap thing. I mean, look at her." She scoffed at me, resting her elbow on Dash's shoulder."She was supposed to be for fun but she was proving so hard to get and I wanted to make her my girlfriend to use her and dump her, baby." He admitted, not bothering about the fact that I was standing right in front of them."Aw, my babe is so nasty." She smirked at him, patting his head proudly."I can't believe you're so terrible. I thank God I didn't fall into your crazy trap, motherfucker!" Oh my, where was this courage coming from?"Why is she being so dramatic?" She asked with her forehead crumpled and wearing a lopsided grin.I stormed out of the house and quickly got into a taxi. Samantha was probably

~ Samantha Reese ~"You still won't let me tell anyone you're here? This torture is killing me. Won't you at least tell Mom or Georgina?"Lila asked, finalizing her makeup."No, I'd let Mom and Georgina know today. Please don't let anyone know yet." I smiled at her. "By the way, you look very gorgeous.""Thank you." She grinned."You're going to work? Aren't you late now?""No, I'm on leave again. I'm going over to my boyfriend's.""Oh... I'd love to see this man you and Georgina is so crazy about.""Stupid Georgina. She keeps blaming me when I've got nothing to do with her sleeping around with men." She rolled her eyes, rising from the vanity chair.I chuckled. "That's Georgina for you. I'll talk to her later today.""Please do. Talk some sense into her head.""I'll try to." I chuckled again. "I'm going to take a stroll for relaxation.""You need it. Call me if there's any emergency, don't work too much, don't destroy the house, don't get too emotional, don't do anything stupid, eat.

~ Alvin ~"You're just returning?""Yes, sir." The stupid driver who had driven Samantha Reese had finally arrived but not with her."And where is Samantha Reese ?""She made me drive for a long time and then asked me to stop the car in the middle of nowhere, no matter how many times I refused. She said no one should look for her there because she was going to go further away.""And why are you just returning?""She said I shouldn't return home until today. I tried to follow her but lost track of her. I promise it isn't my fault. I also have no idea where she is.""Please send me the address of where you dropped her off, I'll send it to the police.""Okay, sir, I'll try my best to recall the place." He nodded then left my sight. I returned to the building and dropped me on a sofa."Won't you at least have something to eat?" Mom asked, her tone was soaked in worry.I simply shook my head, resting my head on the arm of the couch and the back of my palm on my forehead."You have to eat,

"Baby daddy?" It didn't take a second before my breath quickened."Samantha? So this is the crazy redhead that's obsessed with you.""Obsessed with him? I find that harsh but not offensive, it's okay." She nodded."Tell me what you mean by baby daddy?" I frowned, beginning to sweat from what she just said."How dare you come here?" He asked in a very intimidating voice, clenching his jaw."Why not? I don't think a couple of millions of dollars would be able to replace the place of a father in the lives of our children." Though she was speaking to Alvin, she was smirking at me.My legs immediately became wobbly, and I lost my balance but before I could fall, I held her shoulders. "Wh-what.. what do you mean?" My voice cracked at every word, and my hands which had a tight grip on her shoulders began to vibrate."Samantha Reese, let's go," Alvin said, fear could be read in his voice by anyone, even a baby."Don't." I pointed my index finger at him, my eyes burning with so much rage towa

"Uh... I don't know." I chuckled nervously."Why do you sound so nervous?" She narrowed her eyes at me."Mom, it's okay. We can't be certain she's pregnant. And if she is, I'm sure it's my child, right Samantha?" He asked and I nodded."You should do a pregnancy test to confirm if she's pregnant because if she's not then it's probably a serious illness. I'll take my leave.""Wait!" I rose to my feet. "What do you mean by you'll be a grandmother again?" I only heard that. "As far as I know, Alvin is your only child.""Oh, he hasn't told you?" She glanced at him."No, he hasn't told me anything." I held her arms. "What is he supposed to tell me that he hasn't? What's going on?" They shared a glance at each other again then burst into laughter. "Calm down. Alvin isn't my only child. He has a sister.""A dog, Mom.""Whatever." She rolled her eyes. "And she has had a lot of puppies." She clarified and I sighed in relief."I can't believe my baby is having a baby." Alvin wrapped his arms a

~ TWO MONTHS LATER ~Once again, another night, no Alvin. I was more than confused. Why hasn't he returned home after three fucking months? I returned to my room took off my jacket, grabbed a towel, and left for the bathroom, sinking into the bathtub. I felt so sick. Alvin not being around had made me very dizzy with terrible headaches.After a long bath, I wrapped a towel around my body and opened the door. I was shocked to see Alvin standing in front of the door, also holding the door knob."Nah, this is probably a dream." I scoffed, rubbing my eyes but he still stood in front of me."You don't believe I'm here?" He raised an eyebrow.Hearing his voice filled my soul with happiness. I wanted to jump and hug him but the happiness was erased quickly and transformed into anger. I walked past him."Please don't give me this attitude." He held my hand but it made me angrier."Let me be." I sauntered to the wardrobe while he walked behind me."Don't be mad at me. I thought you'd be very h
