“ I have meetings to attend today again, Please let me know when you want to see her. And please, don’t tell Grandma for now” Alfred pleaded. “ Don’t worry kid, your Secret is safe with us” The youngest said and Alfred left. The uncles looked at the Assistant and he bowed his head and walked ahead of Alfred to get the door. Alfred had called his uncles that morning before the meetings started. He thought about it the previous night before he could sleep, he wanted Everything to move smoothly and so, he took that bold step. They went home, Vanessa and Mara were in the garden playing games when the gates opened. Vanessa turned to see who it was and her heart started beating fast. She held her chest, surprised on why her heart was beating. “ weird” She said. She looked at Mara who didn’t stop what she was doing and she raised a brow. “ Mara, your Daddy is back” Vanessa said and Mara rolled her eyes. “ I don’t want to see him” She said. “ why?” Vanessa asked. “ Because he did
“ yes I can, just give me thirty minutes and your food will be ready” Vanessa Hurried inside the kitchen and closed the door. “ Good gracious” Alfred heard a sigh of relief, he finally got rid of her. “ She’s beautifully annoying” He Smiled and went to his room. ---Bella and Mary stood beside each other watching Vanessa as she cooked on the Cooker. She was so busy doing her works that she didn’t knew Bella and Mary were still there. They were so surprised to see Vanessa in the kitchen, cooking for Alfred. As Vanessa turned to take a knife from the cabinet, she saw them. “ Oh I didn’t know you guys are still here” She said Looking at them. “ Your name’s Bella right?” She asked Mary. “ No ma’am, it’s Mary and this is Bella” Mary said. “ Whoa! Sorry. Your names are beautiful” She smiled. “ Thanks ma’am” Mary and Bella said together. “ It’s nothing, My Mara always talks about you. Thanks for taking care of her” Vanessa thanked Bella. “ It’s Okay ma’am, it’s My Job” She said. “ Can
“ There’s something in your mind, tell me” He said. Vanessa Opened her mouth to talk and the door opened. Alfred sprang up, he was shocked. Vanessa stood upright looking at both Alfred and the person that just Entered the house. “ Who are you?” Vanessa asked as Alfred didn’t sat anything. The lady turned to Vanessa, she looked at her from head to toe and looked at Alfred who was dumfounded. “ Who are you?” Vanessa asked again. The lady walked closer to Alfred and hugged him, Vanessa’s heart started beating fast that she couldn’t control it. “ I missed you so much Baby” The lady said with her head on his chest. She looked at Vanessa whose expression had changed and she smiled. “ My name’s Kiara and I’m his girlfriend” Kiara said arrogantly. “ And you, who are you?” Kiara asked Vanessa, Vanessa looked at Alfred, she looked at Kiara and ran upstairs. ----Vanessa entered the room, she closed the door and held her chest. She sat down on the beat patting her chest and took
“ What is all this, what is she doing here!” Alfred sat on the sofa with his hands on his head. “ What brought her back? I’m not even in love with her again” Alfred sighed, he didn’t even knew what to do when she hugged him in front of Vanessa. “ I would have stopped her, I would have pushed her away” He heard Mara’s voice from the room and he stood up. He went up the stairs and stretched his hand to knock the door but paused when he heard Vanessa’s voice. “ It’s okay baby, don’t cry. There’s nothing we can do about it, she’s your Daddy’s girlfriend” There was sadness in her voice when she spoke, Alfred felt so bad. He knocked on the door and Vanessa Opened it but didn’t give him the way to enter the room. “ What do you want?” She asked him and he sighed. “ I’m Sorry Vanessa, I didn’t know….” She interrupted him “ I’m not interested” She said and was about closing the door again when he grabbed her hand.. “ Release my hand” She said but he held on to it tightly. “ Listen to me,
“ I’ll have to warn everyone in the house not to ever let anyone in without my permission” He started the car and Rove out of Kiara’s house. Alfred was on his way to the house when another call came in, it was his grandma. “ What again?” He wanted to answer the call but ignored it. “ She might also want to come to the house. What should I do now” He put his phone on silent and continued driving. When he reached home, Vanessa and Mara where not in the sitting room as usual. Mara would have run to him and welcome him if only Kiara hadn’t came to the house that day. He went straight to his room and lay on the bed. The day was already so hectic for him since in the morning. He wanted to rest but Kiara had spoiled Everything for him. He wondered why she chose that moment to come back in to his life When his Grandma had already separated them. It was already 9:30pm and Alfred closed his eyes to catch some sleep but even the sleep was Angry with him. He stayed awake all through the ni
“ I’ll go with you when you are leaving the town. I want to spend some time with you” She said and he sighed. “ What about work?” he asked her. “ Daddy will take care of it” She said looking at her Dad. Many was Always out of town and wasn’t serious about her work, she was the Manager of the Fashion Department but left all her works to her Assistant. They spend hours doing the same thing. Few minutes later, Alfred Check his wrist watch and stood up, Mandy was leaning on to his shoulder by then. “ What?” She asked standing up. “ I’m Going back to the hotel, I’m so tired from the flight last night” He lied so that he could be free from Mandy. “ Oh, I’ll go with you” She said picking up her designer bag. “ No, you should stay with Grandma” Alfred bade his Uncles Goodbye and left. “ Do you think you can fool me?” She Chuckled and went out of the reception, she saw Alfred left the premises in his car Hurriedly. She got in to her car and drove out of the hospital, following him.
“ What!!!!!” The Uncles Exclaimed. “ Is Alfred out of his mind? How can he Marry a girl as rude as her?” The Uncle Laughed, he brought out his phone from his pocket and dialed Alfred’s number. “ Come Home Now!” He yelled on the phone and cut it. “ Who did you called?” Vanessa asked him. “ You’ll soon Know. Just go in and start packing your trash, You are leaving this house Today” He sat down on the sofa Angrily while Vanessa folded her arms. “ Do you think you can send me out of this house? I’m going nowhere” She said to him and also sat on a sofa, she crossed her legs waiting for whoever he called to come in.. “ What is she doing here?” The Uncle pointed to Vanessa immediately Alfred Entered. “ Who, Vanessa?” Alfred asked “ So her name’s Vanessa, yes I’m talking about her” He said. “ She’s….” Alfred looked at Vanessa and she looked away. “ She’s the girl I was telling you about” He said. The Uncles exchanged glances , Vanessa was also surprised that Alfred had already told those
“ Yes I know” She said. “ what happened?” He asked her. “ I’ll tell you but promise you’ll never yell at Mummy again” She said and he promised. “ Mummy Bake cakes for him when his wife did her birthday” Mara said and he raised a brow. His Uncle didn’t have a wife, his wife died years ago. “ His wife?” He asked and Mara nodded her head. “ Yes that was what he said but she was so Young. He didn’t pay my Mummy all the money and he threatened her back then” Mara said. Alfred’s jaw dropped, he didn’t know all that happened between Vanessa and his Uncle. Alfred sighed, he looked at Mara and smiled. “ Don’t Worry, I’ll take care of everything” He said and Mara nodded her head. “ No smile for Daddy” She smiled and hugged him. 8:30pm After Mara has fallen asleep, Alfred went to Vanessa’s room. He found her on the bed crying, She was Shocked to have seen him inside her room and she quickly cleaned her face. “ What do you want?” She asked Sitting upright. “ I…I’m” He sighed and leaned o
“ Let’s live in the same house with Everyone, with Aunt Mandy, Little Daddy and Grandma. I want to stay with everyone” She Said happily. “ Okay then, let’s do that” Vanessa said to Alfred. “ That’s Good, I like that too. But are you sure you can stay in a family house?” He asked and she laughed softly. “ Of course I Can” She said and he smiled. “ I can’t believe this is happening, it’s just like a dream. Vanessa, I can’t thank you enough” ----- The Day finally came, The Day of Vanessa and Alfred’s wedding. It was such a beautiful sight to behold.
