"You've been like this for almost two months or more now.""Why not? It's not like I have any business with you." Diana told Wayne plainly.Wayne sighs and look away. "Since you wouldn't take this away from me, I'll leave it for you. I need to go back to work as Aiden night have already arrived."Diana didn't reply her as she watched him leave her office with that sad look on his face. She breathed down and pull the bag Wayne dropped on the table closer to herself. Opening it, Diana went on to bring the content of the bag and she was surprised to see a red dinner dress on it, a silver heel and a black Dior bag. It made her smile, this particular gown had been want she wanted. Earlier yesterday, she had seen it in a shop but the price was too expensive. Not that she could buy it , but she was saving up and so couldn't buy something of such amount as she had many plans. Tihana will be putting to bed in two months time, she needed to have some cash with her. Even tho she know Aiden
Tihana sat at Aiden's office as she watched him flips files over and over again. She had just work up about twenty minutes ago and it's actually like the third time she had fall asleep. "I want to take a walk around. I feel lazy." She told him, Aiden nodded telling her to take her phone with her just in case of emergency. Tihana did as she was told and walks out of the office, walking down the hall way slowly with her chips in her hand. She was actually sure if she's ever going to make it through in the day with eating snacks.Thanks to this baby! Walking down the hallways, Tihana was already used to the peering eyes of Aiden's worker. Each person has a thing or two to talk about. They just won't stop staring. At first, when Tihana's belly was already noticeable, she had stopped wanting to come out. Seems she forgot to get herself ready for such attention. It all became worst when the new became a headline. It hasn't been up to a year of their marriage and she's already pregn
"Sir, you've been drinking and just sitting here all day. You didn't even take your calls neither go to the office. And you won't tell me what's happening, yunno I've been here for years. You can talk to me about anything, and if it's something secretive, then I assure you it's safe with me."Mr Norman sighs and turn to look at Nanny. Giving her a smile , he waved to her to have a seat opposite him. She obeyed and went to sat. Since morning, she had seen Mr Norman just sitting in the balcony and staring outside. The food that was brought it by the maids were still untouched. The only thing that has been opened and actually gone half of, was this drink in front of her. She could've taken it away early, but it was alcohol free so she knew that no matter how many glass he takes, he won't get drunk. She had let him be, but not anymore. "Is Blossom back?""She has been out since yesterday night. I think she's having a sleepover at her friend's again" Mr Norman nods in understanding. "
"Do you think she's going to be alright?" Aiden asked worriedly as he steps out of the room with Diana once confirming Tihana was asleep. "Yeah. She's a fighter and I'm sure she's going to pull through. Why don't you go to work and I'll take care of her? I'm sure you've lot of things to do in your office.""You're right. Please give me a call once she's awake." Diana nods and Aiden thanked her once again before walking out of the apartment. Aiden got into his car and drive off. He arrived at his office twenty minutes later, he had stop by to get some of the documents he forgot in his house so it kind of delayed him. "You came." Wayne says immediately he sights Aiden coming into his office. Wayne had come to work earlier, because Aiden phoned him , telling him that he had something to handle and might be late or won't come at all. "Yes. I managed to pull through.""How's she? Diana told me what happened."Aiden didn't reply immediately and first went to sit down, arranging his fil
"Don't try to stop me father! Otherwise I'd go all over the media's and announce about a cheater like you. How could you do such a thing to me?""Blossom calm down now. You've to understand him, he told you earlier that he had no idea there was a baby. He just find out recently, please don't make this thing more hard than it is already ""So you support him?.. you both disgust me! Just leave my room and don't come back."When her father wanted to say a thing or two to her, Blossom went on to start screaming, causing chaos that her father and the nanny was left with no option than to leave the room as she said. "Shut the door behind!" She screamed behind them.While outside of the room, Mr Norman went to the sitting room and fall like a heavy bag of steak on the couch. The Nanny approaches him. "Please do not overthink your self. You know your daughter more than anyone else, she'll come around. I'd understand her too, this is a whole lot to take in."Mr Norman thanked her and went to
Diana opened the door, and Ofcourse it was who Aiden told her it was. Wayne! In his hands was flower that he was holding out for her, she didn't collect it immediately. Diana stood and look at him for a second before finally deciding to say something. "Wayne, Why are you here?" She left the door open and walk back inside to sit down. Wayne came in, shutting the door behind him. "Well, to talk to you. Ain't you gonna take this flower from me? C'mon, don't be too harsh."Diana rolled her eyes at him and corrected it. "Thank you." She muttered and drop it on the table recklessly. "Well, I see you're still mad at me.""Since you know, can you leave?""Why? Why are you mad at me .. you approached me to ask me to be your 'fake boyfriend' which I agreed, even tho you didn't tell me for how long it'll be. Then I got tired and call it over and you're mad at me?"Diana didn't say anything. Even her had asked herself so many times, why exactly is she mad at him? "I realized both of us ar
"You sent them out together purposely right?" Tihana asked with a smile as she start unpacking everything that Aiden had bought. "Yeah. I noticed they both still have a lot to talk about. Do you like it?" Aiden asked when Tihana finally come across the gold necklace he had bought for her."It's beautiful. Can you help me?" Aiden nods, take it from her hand and out it across her neck. Tihana picked up her phone and look at herself through it's screen.."Thank you Aiden. This is beautiful.""I'm glad you like it. Uhmm, My mother actually called." Tihana turn her head to look at him. She was kind of surprised, or maybe got a little nervous when Aiden talked about his mother. "She was asking if we could visit her some time.""Yeah we could. Should we go over for dinner tomorrow?"Aiden smile. "You're so beautiful. Yeah, I'll let her know right now."Tihana blushed at the compliment and watched Aiden send out a text message, obviously to her mother. There was silence, as Tihana starts a
"So? You wanna talk about it?" Wayne asked as they got into the car, they were driving back to Diana's apartment. "Talk about what?" Diana asked, pretending not to realize what he was talking about. Deep inside her, she knows for sure that she really missed Wayne and had waited for Soo long to hear him say those words to her. It was just that, it came unexpectedly to her. "I told you earlier. Could we stop the fake relationship and maybe, make it real?"Diana turn her head and look at him.. shyly, she looks away and stare out of the window. "Well. That was unexpected and makes me feel uncomfortable.""Why uncomfortable? We were doing it before, the only difference is that it's real now. Tell me, you don't wanna be with me? Or you prefer the fake relationship to the real one?""That's cute of you Wayne. But can you give me time to think about it?"Wayne didn't respond immediately, it wasn't because he didn't want to . It's because he had no idea what else to say, if there's one t
SEVEN MONTHS LATER~~~~ Tihana Turner walked down the aisle, being led by her Father. As she looks at everyone through her vile, she couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes. It was such a beautiful day for her, more beautiful with the fact that everyone had a smile on their face , watching her. Aiden had decided to re-hold their wedding, and this time, he wanted it to be real. Maybe this was the reason why Tihana was tearing up. Having to get married and knowing that this time, it was because they both love each other. And this time, there's no contract. Collins is a year old, and a child full of life. He had been Tihana's source of happiness. To Tihana, the birth of Collins had brought nothing but happiness in her life. She's going to give him to best and train him to be the best boyfriend and the best husband whenever it's that time. She stood opposite Aiden as the priest read out the vows. Aiden hadn't hesitant to say his own vow, he was sure he's ready. Ready to spend the
Tihana stayed at the hospital for more two hours with Emma and her mother whom the doctor announced will be discharged after a week and suggested she go into therapy immediately. Tihana called Aiden to come pick her up and now, she's standing outside the hospital and waiting for him. Then she heard a footstep that seems to be approaching her.... She turned her back and it was Emma. "I thought you went in to stay with her.""I did.. but she's asleep now." Tihana nodded and look away, her eyes fixed on the hospital gate. As she wanted to see Aiden's car. She missed Collins already and just wanted to have him on her arms. Cooing him... Even tho it's tiring, it was a beautiful moment and she tend to keep that beautiful moment for a long time, Collins is currently six month old, how fast time flies. "Tihana. Thank you for always being here for me, I dunno what I could do without you. I realized that it had always been you... My life had always been meaningful, thanks to you.""C'mon
Tihana walked down the stairs and made her way to the kitchen where she took out a bottled water and drank from it. Sighing, she put it back and walk away. While making her way back upstairs, Tihana heard the door open and she look behind here to see it was Aiden, looking pale. "You alright?" She asked and walk back downstairs then approach him and stood in front of him. "Just coming back after visiting grandfather.""Is everything okay? You should be in the office now. You told me you are going to the office after visiting him, did your plans change?""Sit. How's Collins?" Aiden said both words and Tihana went on to sit next to him. "He's asleep. Tell me what happened ""Grandfather will be retiring, and he wants to hand over all the company to me.""Wow! That means more work on your desk. Why did he then tell you at the last minute?"Aiden shakes his head negatively and was about replying when a maid interrupted them. "Ma'am... Your phone have been ringing non stop. Sorry I inte
Diana walked into Wayne's family home. They were still at the family house and had just finished dinner an hour ago before she went to talk with Damon. Wayne said they'd be leaving tomorrow as he didn't make plans for them staying there for more than a day. "You're back?" Wayne asked as he had just walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his body as he looks at Diana. "Yes.." Diana said and went to sat on the bed. She couldn't wait to return to New York, meeting Damon here was kind of unexpected and made her uncomfortable. Diana wondered what could've have happened now if she and Damon had had a very bad relationship that they couldn't stand each other? "You never told me how you get to know my Brother. Damon.." Wayne said and Diana looked at him, her eyes betraying her as she looks away. "You should put on your clothes. I'm going to take my bath too." Diana stood up and deliberately walked into the bathroom, but come back soon after to pick up a towel from the war
"Am nervous " Diana complained as she stood beside Wayne's car. They have gotten off the plane twenty four minutes ago and had just arrived at Wayne's family home at Australia. "They don't bite." Wayne gently told her and all Diana did wad to nod and try to calm down. Wayne had once told her he wanted her to come and see his parents, to meet them. But she had thought it's just something many guys will say to make a lady submissive but when Wayne announced to her yesterday after Tihana's engagement that he had bought their tickets and their flight will be in the morning. Diana had thought it was a joke until Wayne showed it to her. He had gotten the ticket about a week ago and had paid for everything while waiting for the perfect time to announce the news to her. Surely, she had called Tihana on phone that night to tell her about it and she's very sure she interrupted something between the two newly engaged couples and the baby was there with them too, cause she could hear him ma
Tihana woke up and stood up from the bed with a headache. She sighed and stood up, leaving the room and searching for the nannies since her baby wasn't in bed with her. Once Downstairs, she noticed how dark the sitting room was and it was quite unusual. She wondered how long she have been sleeping that she didn't even notice Aiden leave the house. "Gladys!??" She called out the first nanny's name whom she knew is always around. When she didn't hear a response and everything was died silent, she proceeded to searching for the light switch. Just when she was about touching it... The light turned on and that's when she realized that this has been nothing but a surprise. The sitting room was fully decorated with Flowers."Surprise!!" Diana yelled and hugged her from behind. And then Wayne, Trenton , Emma , Blossom and the rest of the family was there. Including grandfather!"What's going on?" She asked, with a smile on her face to cover up the anxiousness on her face. Diana didn't r
__A MONTH LATER__ The cool evening breeze perishes on Emma's body as she smiles happily. If there was anything she like the best recently, it was being a student once more. She couldn't imagine if she'd be a student still if not because of Tihana. Emma had had it in mind to become successful and make Tihana proud, she had as well wanted to teach the kids never to treat someone badly just because they're not so family. She's going to keep using herself as an example. The grudge she hold unto Against her mother was over, she have only tried to make her mother a better version of herself. Emma had been surprised when she discovered that everything about Tihana's marriage that she thought was real was all fake. Also hearing about all the challenges and the pains she had been through trying to keep that huge secret made Emma felt bad. Tihana had been through a lot , and she doesn't deserve to go into another pain. If anyone deserves happiness more now, it was Tihana. Her life ha
"Can I come in?" Blossom asked as she perp into Tihana's room. Everyone was retiring back home group after group, and only few remains. Blossom had just noticed that Tihana wasn't there anymore. About Trenton and Aiden, she had seen them both walks away from the crowd. How badly she had wanted to follow them behind and find out what they're talking about. But since she's trying to make a change in her life, She felt that will be inappropriate and so, she had stayed back. "Blossom? Please come in." Tihana stands up from her bed and sat instead... Trying to put on a happy face so she couldn't see how unhappy and stressed she looked. "Hey sis.... Why are in your room instead of having fun?""Nah, I'm not really that much of a party type. Most especially, I'm stressed and just need to catch some sleep before Collins wakes up.""Oh. Sorry about that. He's in his room?"Tihana nods. "With the nannies.""I'll leave you to rest then." Blossom give her a smile and turn to leave but Tihan
The welcome back home ceremony for Tihana was lit. She had stayed back in the hospital with her baby for another week before she finally discharged. All through her stay in the hospital, Aiden was there for her. As much as Tihana was so happy to hold her in her hand, she was sad. As the first thought on her mind was if she's ready to give up on her baby? She haven't known what the joy of motherhood is until this minute. She wanted to by with her baby and watch him grow into a big baby. But she did signed a contract that she won't be in that baby's life after he's a year old right? Thinking about this alone was enough to keep her heartbroken. While Aiden had been all around her, showering her with gifts and telling her all the sweet words... Tihana still feel like he was doing all that just to appreciate her for giving birth to his baby. Blossom had been there too, and so was Diana,Emma , Mr Norman and Ms Turner. The only person that Tihana hadn't heard from since she put to be
