“Lauren, stop crying!... everything is going to get better in time, stop punishing yourself for not!” Lauren's friend said to her as she was crying nonstop.Lauren is Alex's sister, or better still…Lauren is Alex's half-sister from his mother's side just like Tony is his half-brother from his father's side.Lauren has always been indifferent towards Alex because of the way her father has always talked her against Alex…she never showed any form of love or sisterly affection towards Alex which she began to regret after the death of their mom, All because of her Alex wasn't able to pay his last respect to their mom, which made her regret every day of her life why she had to even listen to all the bad things her father said about Alex.Now Lauren wants to repent from her sins, she wants Alex to forgive her for all her actions and how she had always misbehaved to him all these years.“Why should I stop crying?, uhm…tell me why should I…I know it is all my fault for the get go but is it too
“Wow!” Julia said with a lot of surprise as she watched the grand entrance of her friend.“Doesn't she look stunning?” Ariel said as she brought out her phone to record her.“OMG…I can't stand her, she must always show off her wealth ... .argh,...I just can't stand her!” Sophia said as she hissed and continued to press her phone.“OMG, you are looking so different than ever” Ariel commented as she couldn't help but admire Olivia's good looks.“Oh…come on now!... you don't have to praise Ariel, have just missed you all” Olivia said as she sat down beside Sophia.Ariel, Julia, Sophia, and Olivia have been best of friends since high school day…but each of them has a different upbringing and is from a different class, Ariel's Dad is a politician and her mom is also a doctor so her family has always been well to do, Julia lost her dad at a very young age so it has only been she and her mom…Julia was only friends with Ariel before Ariel became friends with both Sophia and Olivia which made
“Alyssa!?” Olivia asked in shock.“And what is this big news about her?” Sophia asked.“Guys!...I still can't believe that you guys haven't seen the news, like…I mean it has been trending on Instagram and some other platforms for the past few days now!...And even you Olivia I can't believe you don't know about these!” Ariel said.“I told you all have been very busy of late, that's even one of the reasons why I have been adjusting our get together plan, and social media?... I don't even have time for myself so how will I have time for social media; hope you understand now, I am just recently getting time for myself now because the project my company is working on is over '' Olive explained to Ariel emphasising on the fact that she has a company she is managing.“Fine, we understand!” Ariel said as she turned on her phone and typed some things on her phone.“I just sent to our group chat one of the videos I saw online…you all should check it out” Ariel said as they all brought out the p
“Mom!”“Mom!”“Mom!...where the hell are you mum?” Olivia yelled out as she entered the house and dropped her things on the floor.Olivia wasn't sure where her mum was but she was certain that she was in the house because she and her mum were supposed to go and meet with Mr Robert today.“Perhaps she's in her room…let me go check” Olivia stumbled out of the sitting room and went up the stairs to go check on her mum.Olivia checked around the house but there was no sign of her mother. She was already getting frustrated and the fact that she was clueless about her mom's location annoyed her, “Where have you gone mum!” Olivia yelled as she brought out her phone to place a call.The phone rang for a bit because it got disconnected “OMG!... Why isn't she picking up” Olivia tried to call her again but it was to no avail because she didn't still pick up her calls…Olivia dialed the office number and called the manager hoping to hear that her mum was at the office but to her surprise they didn
It was a cool evening…Alyssa was in the sitting room drinking wine and eating cookies, she had always loved to take her cookies with red wine, it has been part of her since childhood, her father loves to take wine, especially red wine, And whenever she was with him and she starts eating her cookies her father would always give a glass of wine so it became used to her to take her cookies with wines.Alyssa scolded through her social media accounts as she couldn't help but scoff at the slightest of every post she saw about herself and Alex.“Oh…How much I hate these bloggers, don't they have other things to do than talk about people's lives?” Alyssa sipped her wine as she told another cookie and put it into her mouth.Alyssa kept on watching and smiling at her phone as different funny videos popped up.After a few minutes of watching and eating, she checked the time and it was already getting late, Alyssa did not know what time Alex usually came back from work but that again reminded h
“OH MY GOD!, what is the time?” Alyssa got off her bed took her phone from the table and checked the time.“What! Ten minutes past nine…what the fuck….how did I sleep so deep my alarm wasn't even able to wake me up…ohh..my..gosh…am sure Alex would be back by now and he might have even eaten” Alyssa got up from her bed and slide into her slippers and went down immediately.Immediately she got down everywhere was silent, no one was in the sitting room nor in the kitchen, Alyssa sat down on the couch feeling so sad that she had gone to bed without waiting for Alex to come back, she felt he might have thought that because of their little misunderstanding in the morning he would have thought that she didn't want to see him that was why she want to prepare his dinner for him earlier before she started feeling sick.Speaking about her sickness, when Alyssa got up from the bed she was kind of surprised that she was covered completely and her hair was packed to the back, she remembered that sh
“Good morning Alex” Alyssa was Already at the dining table having her breakfast when Alex came down from his room with his suitcase.“Are you off for work Already?...won't you have breakfast first?” Alyssa asked like everything was fine between them and like nothing happened the previous night.Before Alyssa left her room in the morning she had promised herself not to think about what happened between she and Alex last night and she also promised herself that she was not going to talk about it and act like nothing ever happened since it was all her fault in the first place, she even said to herself that if Alex brings it up she was going to act like she didn't remember anything so he would think that she wasn't in her tight sense last night when she came to his room.“Give us some privacy!” Alex demanded as everyone in the sitting room, kitchen and even dining room quickly went outside as ex had instructed.“And why did you ask everyone to leave?” Alyssa asked softly.“Aren't you funn
“Ma we can't let you in”“Why? Tell me why! I just want to see my brother so what crime have I committed that you can't let me in? I already told you all am not going to leave here today until you let me see my brother” “Ma no one is around and our boss would not like it if he comes back and sees you here! Ma please leave or better still call him and let him know you are here so we know if we should let you in or not” One of the bodyguards at Alex house said.“If he was picking up, do you think I would be here now arguing with you…uhhh..tell me? Just let me in, if he is not around then I will wait till he comes” Lauren said with all determination.Two guards held her by her hands and started dragging her away from the front of the house saying she was causing commotion.“Let go of me! Let go of me you fools…Argh..let go!” Lauren yelled out to the bodyguards that were dragging her out but they didn't answer her.“Am going to make you all pay for these if you don't let go now” Lauren t
“What are you doing here?” Alex asked Lauren immediately if he saw her with Alyssa.“Get out now!” Alex yelled.“Reduce your voice, she's just regaining consciousness now please, and I will go” Lauren said as she was about to stand up when Alyssa held onto her.Alex was shocked he wasn't sure what was happening but he didn't want to see her.Alex immediately went to Alyssa. “ Hey baby doll…how are you feeling?” He asked out of curiosity.“i'm good, don't shout at Lauren” Alyssa said.“Please don't talk Alyssa let Celine get to your doctor first and let her check and be sure you are fine before you start talking” Lauren said calmly.“Yes, don't talk Aly” Alex agreed with Lauren.Celine came in shortly with the doctor and she told everyone to wait out while she checked up on Alyssa.Few minutes later she came out and informed them that Alyssa was fine and she was asking Alex if Alex should go see her.Alex immediately went to see Alyssa. “Hey baby doll, are you asking of me? I'm sorry I
THERE WEEKS LATER A sunny afternoon Alyssa was coming back from the hospital when she went for her check.Immediately she stepped out of the hospital she saw a taxi but as she tried stopping it the taxi took another way so she wanted to cross over to the other side of the road to stop a cab from there as she tried crossing the road a car came with full speed as it hit Alyssa and ran off.Alex who was following Alyssa from a distance all fainted as he watched Alyssa fall to the ground…when he was following her and he saw that she went to the hospital he was wondering what she went to do their but at these moment he couldn't think again he immediately ran to Alyssa who was already unconscious as she laid lifeless on the ground and blood was drip from her head.Alex was so scared he immediately rushed Alyssa back to the hospital.Olivia and Tony stopped the car miles away from the accident so nobody would suspect they did it and they looked at each other and congratulated themselves.To
Few days laterOlivia's friend called her up and informed her about Alyssa. She told her that she saw Alyssa and a lady at the hospital the other day but she wasn't sure which of them was sick and Olivia thanked her friend for the information before hanging up.She called Tony immediately and informed him about the new update that Alyssa wa going to the hospital and she was going with someone, Olivia didn't listen to her mum she joined hands with Tony to bring down Alyssa and Alex and Olivia mum knew about everything but she did not about since Olivia had informed her that they were going to get billions from these and they could run far away with the money.“Alyssa i will be the end of you trust me” Olivia muttered to herself.********“Thanks Lauren…I can't thank you enough for what you have done for me” Alyssa said.“Come on Alyssa don't thank me, I mean you have also stood up from me once so what in the world are you thanking me for” Lauren said as she laid down on the couch.“And
THREE DAYS LATERAlex was done with all he had to do so it was time he traveled back to town to go check up on Alyssa.Alex had told Jake to keep an eye on Alyssa since Alyssa told him.not to stay back that she wouldn't need anyone to protect her Alex told Jake to ensure she doesn't find out that he was keeping a tab on her.For the past three days Alex had buried himself with work so he didn't feel much pain. A huge part of him was still missing Alyssa but as he was working day in day out there was no space for depression.Alex knew that going back to town means he has to seal with his brother annoying schemes and plot and seeing Alyssa form a distance without going to her.It hurts to think about all that but he was prepared, and he hoped he was prepared enough for the worse case scenario.He took off in the morning with some of his bodyguards and arrived almost in the afternoon so he went straight to Alyssa house to inform her get that he was back, Jake had told him that she was at
“I have made up my mind Alex I don't want any treatment! And I don't want to travel to anywhere inside I want to go back home, I mean my house back to town…after reading these letter I know I don't have more than a month left even with the help of drugs do I better make the best out of the days I have left on earth” Alyssa said.“Stop saying that Alex, think about me how do you want me to survive without you Alyssa, I can't live without you Alyssa…you know how much I love you now so why are you doing these why are you saying all these, you are not dying my love am with you we will go through there together” Alex eyes became watery.“But that's my faith Alex and I can't let you change it and I won't allow it affect you Alex” Alyssa said.“And what do you mean by you wouldn't make it affect me?” Alex asked curiously, hoping it was not what he was thinking.“I want to end this Alex, I can't let you go through the pain my dad went through after my mum's Death and I am sure you will be abl
Three Days laterThe past few days have been the best for both Alex and Alyssa and they could both testify to it that they have enjoyed every bit of it. The time they spent together, when they watched movies and ate together, when Alex took Alyssa on a long drive one of the nights and when she prepared a meal for him they enjoyed every bit of it and hoped for more.It was a blissful Saturday morning when Alyssa woke up and decided that she was going to go for a little shopping since she needed a new shoe, Alex wanted to follow her but she told him not to worry since he had lot of work to do since and all thanks to her he was having little time at work during the week so she told him to stay back and work that she wouldn't be long.Alyssa left a few minutes after they had their breakfast together. And Alex went ahead to work since he had a lot of work to do.In an hour time Alyssa was already at the mall, she went with some bodyguard as Alex insisted that he was going to go with her if
—--------EVENING----------- Alyssa was so excited throughout the day that she even decided to prepare dinner since she had her husband for the very first time.She went grocery shopping with Jake and called Mrs Jane to find out what Alex's favourite dish was.She happily prepared his dinner since he had called her to inform her that he would be coming back earlier than usual today.Alex called Alyssa ever second he was free at the office just to heard her voice and Alyssa was so happy about it, she had never been called so frequently by anyone in her life except her aunt when ever she wanted to nag her or ask for her help but expect that she had never been called just to be reminded that she was beautiful and the best thing that has ever happened to someone.Alyssa waited patiently for Alex to come back immediately she was done cooking she went up to her room to take her bath and she got dressed in a simple ware that is a bum shot and a round neck top that suits her skin well. Alex a
“What took you so long to say those words to me, have been dying to hear you say that you love me” Alex said looking into Alyssa's eye.“I still can't believe these Alex, I mean I just hope and not dreaming because if I am then am never going to wake up from.these perfect dream” Alyssa said.“no baby doll, these isn't a dream and I can tell you fot such that I love you. Not only in your dream world but in reality, I have fallen in love with you and everything about you and I don't want to ever loss you to anyone” “And you are never going to lose me to anyone as far as I am alive and breathing” Alyssa replied as she gave Alex a big hug.“How about we watch a movie?” Alyssa suggested to Alex.“Yeah that's just perfect, I will go set up the cinema” Alex said still holding unto Alyssa.“Sure. And I will go grab us some snack from the fridge” Alyssa said.“OK then” Alex was still holding unto Alyssa he didn't want to let go of her as if she was going to run away if he did “ let go Alex am
I LOVE YOU “This woman, her drama never ends,” Alex said to himself.“And what is she doing there?” Alex asked the maid.“No idea sir but I guess she is planning on spending the night there because she went with her pillow and a bed cover” The maid responded respectfully.“OK then, you may take your leave. I will handle it from here on, '' Alex said.“OK sir”Alex dished his food in a Plate as he eat… he had tons of documents he had to go through and sign but also he could think of was Alyssa and why she had suddenly changed towards him, why she keeps saying thing that would hurt his feelings every time he tries been sweet to her, Alex felt like if he didn't open up to Alyssa sooner than later then he might end up regretting it. He knew the contract was going to affect everything but still he didn't care all he wanted was Alyssa and her love the rest are aside for him.Alex finished eating his food and went up to his room to work.“ Oh my God! Where am I going to sleep like this?” Al
