ESTELLE'S POV.I sat in front of my dressing table applying finishing touches to my makeup, after I finished applying my makeup, I stood in front of my mirror to admire the view.I was wearing a very short lemon green dress that hugged my body, showing off every curve. I picked up my purse and headed out of the house."Where to, Estelle?" One of my neighbours asked."I will be back before midnight." I responded and stepped onto the walkway .I headed straight to One of my favourite spots, although I hadn't visited in a while.It was a night club, But unlike the name, its activities weren't only limited to the night. I pushed the glass door forward and stepped into the building."Hey gorgeous." Theo greeted playfully before pulling me in a hug. "Never thought I would see you again." He said."Well you thought too quick." I responded with a laugh.Theo was the owner of the club, he used to work as a bartender at a club before he decided to start up his own business in the same line.
ESTELLE'S POV. I was sitting in my living room when I heard a knock at the door. I knew it was Brandon coming to visit, so I quickly got up to answer it. When I opened the door, I was met with a stern-looking Brandon. "Hey," I said, trying to keep the mood light. "Hey," he said back, his voice tense. I could tell immediately that something was off. I invited him in and we sat down on the couch. "What's wrong?" I asked, looking into his eyes. He sighed. "It's about the flash drive . I need it for a project and I can't find it anywhere. I think you might have misplaced it." I felt a wave of guilt wash over me. I had been so busy with work that I hadn't taken the time to organize things. "I'm so sorry," I said. "I'll try to look for it now. I'm sure I can find it." I got up and started searching around the house, but I couldn't find it. Brandon just sat there, looking increasingly frustrated. "I can't believe this! I needed it for a presentation on Monday." he said, his voice ri
VANESSA'S POV.I laid lazily on my bed, I had just finished a gym session with Lora. I was so exausted with the exercise. Few weeks before I entered my third trimester, the exercises intensified a bit.With each passing day my belly grew bigger, an evidence of the life that was growing inside of me, sometimes I would stand in front of my mirror just to check out the baby bump.I can't forget Rodri's words one time when he walked in on me checking out my bump in the mirror."You look a bit inflated, more like a balloon but in a cute way," he said trying to stifle his laughter.My eyes narrowed as I stared at him, "there are other cute things apart from balloons." I complained, rolling my eyeballs."Like what?" "Ummmm... I don't know." "You look beautiful regardless," he said with a smile before planting a kiss on my forehead."Thank you." I muttered, making a cute face."So have you prepared your baby shopping list?" He asked."No, I'm still in the process." I answered.We agreed no
RODRI'S POV.I sat behind my desk staring at the workload in front of me, I spent the morning reading and signing paperworks when I heard my phone ring, I picked it up and it was from the home clinic where my Mom was.Vanessa's voice rang from the other end of the phone, it was about my Mom, although I couldn't make out what she was saying, I knew from the tone of her voice that the situation was urgent, so I quickly packed up the documents in front of me."Cancel all the appointments I have for today and reschedule them for tomorrow." I said to my secretary on my way out."Sir, you have a busy schedule for tomorrow already," she answered"Then reschedule for the day after." I said and walked away without waiting for her response.I slid into my car and sped off to the clinic with what seemed to be a thousand thoughts running through my mind. What could be happening? Was she having complications? Did she wake up already? But the tone of Vanessa's voice said otherwise, then the big qu
ESTELLE'S POV.I collapsed into my couch as I just returned from work, it was a long tiring day and the worst part was that I had to miss Brandon's favourite stand up comedy show.He told me two days ago that he bought two tickets to the show for us to have a firsthand experience of the show we usually just binge the show online. But this time he wanted us to have it as a date, unfortunately I had a terrible work load at the office, so I called him to cancel and reschedule for the next one, but he told me he would attend anyways.I relaxed on my couch thinking about what to fix for myself since I was famished, and I wasn't in the mood to order takeouts, so got into my kitchen and fixed myself a bowl of cereal since it was bound to be better in taste and nutrition than anything I'd prepare at the moment.I glanced at the time and saw that the comedy show should still be airing, so I went into my bedroom to grab my laptop , I went online and started steaming the live show.I found mysel
VANESSA'S POV.I was taking my mandatory evening walk with Samira when my phone rang, I checked the caller ID and saw that it was Estelle. "Vanessa, Vanessa I need you, I need help," she cried over the phone."Calm down Estelle, what's going on?" I asked confused."It's Brandon Vanessa, Brandon is cheating on me." she replied."Calm down please. Where are you?" "The playground not far from my place." she said amidst sniffles."I'll be there in a few minutes." I replied before hanging up the call."Where are you going to?" Samira asked."My best friend needs me right now and I have to be there for her." I responded."But you know you're not supposed to go out this late in the evening," "So what am I supposed to do, cross my legs here while she cries herself to death?""I'll come with you then," she offered."Thank you but no, she is going through a lot now and is not in her right State of mind, so the Last thing she needs right now is a strange face." I replied.She hesitated a bit
RODRI'S POV.I sat in my office buried in reading and signing of paperworks when my secretary rang my landline. "Sir the event planner you asked for is here already," her voice rang at the end of the line."Okay let the person in," I responded.I had asked that she help me get an event planner, I was planning a big surprise engagement for Vanessa, yes I wanted to cuff her.Since the other day at the hospital when we confirmed that it was her interaction with Mom that made her react, I felt a certain assurance that she was the one for me. Apparently she likened my mother to a rose waiting patiently to bloom in her book.The event planner walked in and to my surprise it was a man, I had always thought women did a better job at planning events because they had a thing for gatherings."Good afternoon sir." He greeted, as he came into the office."Good afternoon have a seat," I said pointing to one of the seats in Front Of my table."Thank you," he said while taking a seat."So, I have a
MORIAH'S POV.I got out of bed late since it was a Saturday morning, my alarm got broken the other day and I keep forgetting to replace it with a new one.The bright rays of the sun light seeped into the room through the open windows illuminating the room, I walked around a bit stretching and yawning loudly.I went into my bathroom and took my time to have a nice long bath, after taking my bath I went back into the room with my towel on, I had all the time on my hands Afterall.Sitting there on my bed, I started reminiscing on those days when my day started with fixing breakfast for my baby Vanessa. I couldn't believe she had grown up so fast, it felt just like yesterday when I would help her sit on the chair in the kitchen while she eats her breakfast before leaving for school.Now, not only was she grown up, but also expecting a baby for such a fine gentleman. I flicked the teardrops the escaped the side of my eyes with my fingers, she had really proven to be stronger than I thought
