Jaxon finished the meeting he was supposed to have that day for the whole week and he closed the laptop before him, “wow this is hectic?”

“what is hectic?”

He looked at Silas who walked in and sighed, “the whole reimplementing things,”

“And I have to say it is working, the financing team is finally seeing some profits again and we may be breaking even in a few days,”

“Oh, you think so,”

“I know so,”

“So what about the thing I asked you to find, the reason why my uncle is back and he back on the board,”

“Well he bought some shares from a shareholder last two months reaching 10 percent of the company’s capital and he has even been a shareholder longer than we thought,”

“How I haven’t heard of him before in any of the meetings, the general shareholders meeting, the board meeting, so why show now?”

“Do you know that shareholder?”

    The office was white-walled with the chairs and table standing in the corner while the couches stood in the corner and Alva sat on them facing the woman before her.“Mrs. Smith, I heard about your marriage, congratulations,”“Thank you, I appreciate it,”“So why are you here, are you facing some challenges you need therapy for, or is this about the incident of fifteenth years ago?”“It is about the latter,”“Oh, so tell me what the problem is?”“I’ve been having these trances and throwback dreams which didn’t start until recently,”“Are they different from the snatches you had when you first had the incident?”“Yes, this time they are connected to objects and certain people which I touch on the way…”“Then there is certainly a chance that they are connected to your past,”“I thought as much too,”“First…” She picked up a paper and pen, “…tell me everything that has happened within the last 12 years since we met,”“Well I had nothing for a whole year, going blank and having no record f

    She stared at the doctor who had announced the result.“Yes, you’re three weeks pregnant and healthy ma’am, nothing more,”“What?”She didn’t know what to say, she was speechless, to say the least. Pregnant, how had she become pregnant, she knew how she had become pregnant but she just couldn’t believe it, like they had slept only just once and she was pregnant.The doctor stared at her with concern, “are you okay?”“Y-yes, why?”“You’re so pale, is this not good news?”“No o-of course it is, I’m just…I…”“Should I tell Mr. Smith if you’re too shy or uncomfortable to tell him?”“What no, I’ll, I’ll tell him myself, I’m cool,”“Oh okay then, I guess that will be all,”“Yes thank you,”She stood up and took the test results knowing where she was going but not knowing how she was doing it the shock was too much but she knew she went to the car outside where Jessie waited for her.“Oh Alva, you’re done?”“Yes,”“What is wrong, you’re looking kind of pale?”“I…I don’t even know what to say

    Josephine loaded the programs she was working on and watched the codings load as she cracked her knuckles.“What are you doing?”She heard Andrea walk into the tattoo shop and shrugged, “messing with some codings, I want to create a program,”“Oh,”She sat on the couch and watched her work.“Josephine,”“Yes?”She didn’t look up as she had her eyes fixed on the programs she was running and she didn’t register what she heard next.“I want to introduce Kai to you,”“Huh?”“I want to introduce my girlfriend to you,”She stopped what she was doing and looked up, “your girlfriend?”“Yes, she’s here and I want to introduce her to you,”“Oh uhm… sure, I’ll love to see her, where is she?”“Outside,”She called the lady in and she came in sitting beside Andrea as she smiled, “Hello, My name is Kai and I’ve heard a lot about you from Andrea,”“Oh, nice to meet you,”“Yeah,”They smiled and kept quiet none of them saying anything until Andrea cleared her throat, “yo-you guys should say something

    Jaxon couldn’t concentrate on the meeting he had with his employees the next day as kept thinking about what she had said.*Flashback*“I’m pregnant,”“You’re preg…wait what?”“I’m pregnant,”She stared at him showing no signs that she was playing and he became flustered.“W-what do you mean you’re pregnant, when did you become pregnant, how did you become…., Oh I’m sorry, I…I’m just,”“It’s fine, I understand that you’re just as shocked as I am and I’m sorry for coming in between you and Erin with this, I didn’t plan for this to happen and I’m sorry too, I…uhn…”She tucked her hair which was all over her face and walked out.“Alva…”But she didn’t stop.She picked up her bag which was in the dining and apologized to everyone, “I’m sorry but I’ll be going now, see you later,”She left.“What is wrong Jaxon, I thought she was okay?”“Yeah me too…I guess not…”He sat down sighing.*End of flashback*“Mr. Jaxon?”“Uhn?”He looked up as the manager of the tech department called him and he

    What she didn't expect though was to see Jaxon in the kitchen boiling chicken broth and she folded her arms."W-what are you doing?"He turned around surprised and blushed slightly, "you're back?""Yeah, so what are you doing?""Making chicken broth for you since the last time, it worked well in preventing you from vomiting,""Oh, I—thank you,""Yeah so sit and let me serve you, you came just in time,""Okay,"She sat at the kitchen island and watched as he put the broth for her."Here,"She collected the bowl and smiled, "thanks,""So Uhm...""Mm?""I... Just wanted to say...about the uhm… pregnancy that you don't have to feel like this is a burden to me and I kind of like the idea of having a baby,""Have you told Erin?" Alva asked, trying not to seem so excited about what he just said."No, she doesn't know yet" He sighed, running his fingers through his hair and Alva nodded as she stirred her food."Then why are you concluding yet that it won't be a burden, don't you love her anym

    Alva sat in the chair that the woman provided for her and took a breath, she was nervous, to say the least, and she didn't know what to expect."So shall we start now?""Yeah sure, I'm ready,""So what you'll do is close your eyes and listen to my voice, I'll lead you through the night, if you think it'll be too much, you can opt now and do it later,""No, I want to do it now,""Okay, so close your eyes,"She did and listened to two snaps of her therapist's fingers, "it's fifteen years ago, November 15 to be precise and you left home, what happened?"*Flashback* Fifteen years ago.Her parents were fighting, not beating themselves but shouting and she hated that, the loud voices and the scream, she hated them all and she wanted to leave.She put on her coat and took her boots looking to make sure no one was seeing her and she left.She didn't know where she was going but knew that she wanted a quiet place so she went into the alley that was beside the house.That led her into another

    Jaxon dropped his bag as he walked into his house of Erin and turned to kiss her, "hmm, I've missed this,""Me too,"They smiled and went into the dining area where Erin already set up a dinner table. It was beautiful and complete with all the candles and wonderful dishes and Jaxon felt his mouth salivate.He had been the one cooking the food, he forgot how it was to eat a nice dinner made by your girlfriend, "wow, this is—“"Yeah, I know right, well sit down, and let's eat,""Okay,"They sat down and Erin poured the drinks into glasses passing him the wine, "didn't want to open the wine till you were here...""Appreciate that and you look gorgeous,""Really?"She looked down at the black gown she was wearing and tugged at the strapless hands, "I got it just for tonight,""That’s nice,"She had also packed her hair into a ponytail leaving the curves of her neck on display and a necklace adorned them, "you look so pretty,""Thanks, now let's eat,"He smiled and dug into the food savori

    Everything was suspicious...Was what Alva thought the next morning as she woke up from sleep.She had no memory of what had happened last night and she had her clothes strewn over the floor like she had had sex.She hadn't right or had she?She ruffled her hair trying to remember something, anything that indicated that she hadn't gone crazy and done something she shouldn't have the other night.She couldn't remember anything.Like yes, Jaxon had probably been sleeping with Erin and having lovey-dovey nights with her but that doesn't mean she would have slept with someone right, not to talk of her ex-boyfriend.She groaned and sat up on the bed wondering if she had taken any alcohol too as her head felt like it was about to explode. She held her head wincing and sighed. She wouldn't have since she had heard severally that a pregnant woman shouldn't take alcohol and she had ordered soda when she first came into the club.She did remember the early parts of the nights but the major part

    Alva went to Jaxon's house the next day her heart beating fast and she found them fooling around in the kitchen, "what are you guys doing?""Cooking,""Mama!" He rushed into her hands even though he was already a little past three years old and she caught him in her hands."Why are you doing that when you know you can't handle him?""Who told you that?""Look at his hands..." She pointed to his hands that were stained with sauce and he looked away guilty, "Okay, maybe I did indulge him a little,""So what are you guys cooking?" She dropped Jay on his feet and went to the counter where he was finishing up a spaghetti sauce, "spaghetti and meatballs,""Hmm, it looks so good,”"I know right,""Well, I have something to tell you when we're done eating...""Not before I show you something I've been preparing,""Oh really?""Yes, I hope you like it,""Okay, I'm curious now,"He served them the pasta and they ate before getting ready for wherever Jaxon was taking them to, "won't you tell me n

    They were back at the house two days later and Alva was taking a bath in the shower. She had had a brief period of cooking and she thought she should take a bath. She was feeling different though she couldn't explain and she had vomited, she wasn't sure if it was what she thought.Pushing the thought back from her mind, she picked up a towel and wrapped it around her before going into the room that was theirs. Jaxon wasn't there, she wondered where he was.She cleaned off her body and when she had dried off her hair, she went to the closet to decide what to wear. Jaxon's clothes were there and so also hers but something in her decision to pick up Jaxon's shirt and she put it on.She would like to see how much he could resist her or maybe she just wanted to turn him on.She flipped back her hair and went into the sitting room.****Jaxon was finishing up a call when she walked in. He stopped talking for a moment and stared at her, "Jaxon?" Silas said on the phone, "... what's wrong, is

    The next few weeks were used planning the opening of Alva's gallery and Madison was busy with the fashion week. It was hectic as usual and Madison was trying to put on her shoes as it was her turn to walk the runway.She had walked a lot of shows that night and she was tired. She had this last show to run and that was all."Okay give Madison over there a touch of her makeup," the designer they were modeling for directed a makeup artist to her and she got her look touched up."Okay then, you're ready," the man said. She stood in front of the cover to the backstage as she waited for the other model to come in and she went onstage. All eyes were on her or maybe it was the design she wore, she had the looks of everybody on her, she just wished she could smile but she couldn't.She made her turn as she got to the end of the runway and walked back."Okay finally, the group walk," the designer directed.They arranged themselves as they waited for their cue to go onstage and all the models

    The next few weeks were hectic for Alva, from going to the gallery to seeing the artist, she had a lot to do before her opening. She was eager to do it."Uhm... We should place that painting to the side..."The paintings were already in frames and they were hanging with other workers and Helen in view, "this is looking beautiful already,""I know right, the paintings are just a good backdrop for the whole setting,""Okay and that would be a wrap," she said after the last painting was hung."Let's take a seat,"They sat down after the workers had all left and it was in Alva's office. The pieces of furniture were already set and the designs were done, "this is all looking good, so the opening is next week right?""Yeah,""I've invited all the people you told me to invite and there are a lot more on my contact list,""Oh thank you, Helen, you're such a lie-saver,"'it's you I should be thanking,""And how is your mum?""She's good. She was happy you came over the last time and the women

    They arrived at the Incheon international airport and it was bubbling. A lot of people were going in and out of the terminal and Jaxon grabbed his luggage with Alva's, "okay let's go,""Where are we going?""Just follow my lead okay,"She nodded and followed him going to the parking lot where cars and taxis were parked, "we are going to this place, can you take us there?" He gave a paper to the driver and he nodded."Sure,"They got in and he took them to the Incheon terminal in Korea. She was surprised when they got there, "we're going by ship?""You know I did tell you that I wanted us to go on a cruise together...""Yes you did but I didn't know you meant that,""Of course, I did let's go,"He led her through the rows of ships available and got on one that an attendant led them to, "Mr Jaxon Smith right?" He had asked."Yes,""We got your solo cruise ready, over here,"Thankfully it wasn't Korea he was saying so Alva understood what he was saying, "You got a solo cruise?""Hmm hmm.

    Anywhere Helena went to, she always captured people's attention because of her striking beauty even though she didn't dress all classy and gorgeous, but she always had admirers.Her long Raven hair fell to her back almost reaching her bum and enchanting emerald eyes that could put one under a spell.Clinging her fingers round the handle of the carriage, Helena squinted her gaze at the piece of paper in her left hand as she stared at the list of items, her mum had told her to buy in the medium shopping mall not too far from their house.Helena being the free-spirited girl and uhm! Well, always find herself in one trouble and another, she decided to go to big shopping mall located further in town.She hummed, darting her eyes quickly on the shelves in the grocery store as she pushed her carriage slowly.She was so happy today, well, always happy, she picked a can of corn from one of the shelves when she heard a loud voice.“I can't give it to you, old man,” A beautiful girl said firmly

    They held the after-party at Jaxon's family house and it was held in the form of a dinner party. They had changed into more comfortable clothes after coming back from the church and they all sat around the table smiling. Jay came to meet her from her sister's laptop where he had been."let's all make a toast to this remarried life and a happy one at that," her father said standing up and the rest of them stood up with their glasses raised."To a happy remarried life!" They all said and drank.They sat down, "let's get to the food then...""Okay,"The housekeeper came to Maria and served the food making sure everything was neat and delicious. It was a feast to say the least, ranging from chicken to fried rice, to steak, there was a whole variety of food and it was to celebrate her, and she was grateful."Thank you, Maria,""It was no big deal, have a nice night, okay?""Okay,"She went back to the kitchen with the assistants that had helped her with the food and they dug in."Wow, this

    The opening came sooner than it was expected and Alva had everything in motion. The food, the drinks, and the people coming in, there was a lot."Oh hi Margaret, how are you doing?" She greeted a painter that had brought her work to her."Good and you?""Good too, thank you for accepting my painting,""It's alright, it was worth the gallery,"She smiled and went in bringing into view another client that came in and so and so people started entering. Soon she saw the women that were her kind of companions, Helen, her mom, and the other women, "Oh hi...""Alva, I'm so happy to see this,""It's so nice,""My husband said I must buy one today...""Oh I'll be happy to sell to you and thank you" Alva replied to the ladies and Helen winked at her from the side.They were all wearing elegant clothes and it matched the atmosphere she had set the gallery to be, "we'll have your fill of the artworks, there are also finger foods and wine,""Okay, thank you,"They went to view the arts and Alva sa

    They finished picking the clothes and Jessie had picked this beauty of a dress for herself. It was purple, it had wide straps and the edge kind of fell off her shoulders. Josephine had concluded that she wouldn't be wearing any dress as she was okay with the jeans and shirt she always wore while Madison had picked out a black dress, typical of her.Alva on the other hand went with the slim but flay at the end dress and when she had told the attendant what she wanted to be adjusted, they left the shop."So let's go to the bar then, I made a reservation,""Is that alright though, I mean we're going to be drinking and we all brought our cars?""We can call a driver to come drive us,""Oh that's true," Jessie replied and Alva was surprised. She hadn't known she could be a voice of reasoning when they were going through drinking but it was alright."To the bar then,"They all got in their cars and drove to the address that Alva sent them.By the time they got there, they were already hyped
