Niko opened the door with a heavy feeling, standing in front of the tall mansion and taking in the look before deciding on going inside.“Would you like..”“Just stay here. I’ll be out in a few.” He said before walking towards the house.He was in a two piece designer suit and a pointed shoe matching up his look. He gulped down as he stepped into the house, and the first image he was used to all of his life, his father already standing in front of the door waiting for him.“Look who decides to show up.” He said as he eyed him.“Good afternoon to you too.” He said with a sly smile on his lips before walking in.His eyes widened as his brows contorted in a frown as he looked at them all.“Seems like it’s a whole family.” He muttered.“Good afternoon grandma, mummy, and all other people in the seat.” He greeted me before finding his seat in the house.He was known to take the lowest seat in the house, not that he minds but it still hurt him that he needed to take the lower chair and his
“What did you just say?” Niko chortled back, finally breaking loose from Joe as he approached her.“I…I’d..didn’t think you’ll..”“You didn’t think it was of importance right? You think I just want to see your face and play with you or take you out. Hum!” He raged.“I didn’t expect you to message me right now, I did not know that it was of importance. You made it sound like if I didn’t come, you were going…and I wanted to do something so I had to drop it. I’m very sorry.” Reyna added.Niko clenched his jaw, words failing him for some moment and his sweaty face made it so hard for him to say anything again. He gritted his teeth together, turning to look at Joe who just pressed his lips together without saying anything.“We have to talk.” He said through the gritted teeth before approaching the stairs.Reyna felt a weight coming to her as he made his way up the stairs, only for him to brush past her the moment he passed without sparing her a glance. She sighed before replaying all the w
“And who do we have here?” A voice towered over them before Niko decided to raise his head up and see.His jaw hardened immediately as Reyna looked at the tell guy who for some reason bore resemblance to Niko.“And you must be the lady who charmed my brother's heart. I’m James.” He said as his lips curled up into a sinister smile before dragging a chair to sit down.“You’re not invited here.” Niko said through gritted teeth.“Come on brother.” James replayed, nudging his brother's arm as his eyes went back to Reyna.His piercing eyes peered at her from her bosom down to her legs. Even though he knew she knew he was looking at her without shame, he neither cared nor bothered about what she thought. What was on his mind eas how this gay brother of his got a beautiful pretty girl?“What’s your name?” He said after peering to his satisfaction.“Get out of this room now James!” Niko bellowed on him gently.“Chill brother.” A scoff passed through James' lips.“I’m here to see someone who wa
“Ohhh..”Reyna drawed out.“Don’t mind him. He can be a jock sometimes and can be a bully..but..”“You don’t have to side with him, I know what I saw. I have my impression of him, you have yours. Don’t worry.” Reyna cut him off as she turned to the window.The truth was that she was very surprised, how would one brother open their mouth to say something like that to their brother, not in their house, not in private but in public and when his fake girlfriend is there.. not that the brother knows that they’re fake but at least he should behave being cultured or mannered.She couldn’t imagine Alan ever doing like that to her, there was even no way he'd open his mouth and disgrace, embarrass her like that in front of someone.“Is your family always like this?” She spoke out after some time.Niko has decided to drive them to another restaurant. It was late already so they were just driving around, trying to find a nearby restaurant and where they could just eat and call it a night.“My fami
Reyna awkwardly smiled before continuing with her food. He was something, something she wanted to know more and something she doesn’t want to know.“Just wat. It’s getting late already and we have to return home.” He said.Reyna smiled back at him as she continued her food, with a lot of thoughts in her mind.The ride back home was settling and nice. Although there was no communication between them both, there was still that feeling that everything has been settled and there is no more need to argue and run from each other. Reyna watched the way he drove the car, not too slow and not too fast. And the way his head bobbed along with the music that was playing in the car. It was rap music, but he shook his head along with it like he knew every part of it.“You like raps?” He asked her as they were close home.“Not really.” She replied.“What kind of music do you listen to?” He asked with furrowed brows.“I don’t really have a type. I’ve not had time for music, so I can’t say. I just lis
“What are we going to do to that bastard of a son! Your mother can’t just allow him to take what she left for us!” Nikos' stepmom yelled across the room.“He has a right to take it but he’s so useless to know how to manage it. We can’t afford for him to take it, with his stupid brain of his, I won’t be scared if he decided to spend it all on girls.” His father replied, pacing across the room.Both of them were in their thinking mode, wondering why such inheritance would’ve left for a boy who does nothing but waste his life on random girls, and random boys, his sexuality still unknown. The door barged upon with an angry James entering the room with a flared nose and red eyes.“My boy, who did this to you?” His mother said as she hurriedly rushed towards him.“Father,” James greeted as he nodded at his father.“Isn’t this a son that is useful for both the company and for us, why can’t he just be like you and always respect us instead of doing his nonsense all around!” His father blared
James stormed out of the house into his car. His driver already noticing the shift in mood to be more aggressive than how they came in, only tightened his lips together and faced the front.“Take me to the office now.” James muttered before the driver nodded.He revved the car engine silently, not wanting to make anything disturb his master to the extent that he’ll get angry at him. His boss was a temperamental person and the slightest of things would make him angry. The driver clenched his jaw as he hit a bump with the car tyres.“Can’t you drive well or you just want my stomach to be uncomfortable this morning!?” James yelled out from the back.The driver sighed, gulping nervously as he hurriedly apologized.“My eyes skipped that part. I’m really sorry boss.”“Better look at the road very well! If anything happens to my car, I’m sure your family can’t pay it off so drive well.” He yelled again at the driver.James sighed as he clenched his jaw hard. He was angry, and his mind was be
“What’s wrong sister? You look angry. What did the doctor say?” Alan said as Reyna walked back into the room. His eyebrows scrunched up in worry immediately. No matter how uncomfortable he felt, he wanted his sister to be fine. A smile bloomed on her face immediately as she bent down and stared into his face,“Everything would be fine, all I need to do is see uncle and his wife, the operation still take place tomorrow. Don’t bother yourself with whatever they might be happening.” Reyna said, hurriedly patting his head and throwing him one of her smiles. The both of them talked for a while, an attempt by her to make him believe she was really fine before she finally picked her bag and left.Dumbfounded Larissa had no idea what was happening, glancing beteeen the door and Alan that’s as looking at her, she hurriedly smiled at him.“Take care of yourself Alan, I’ll be here tomorrow and I’ll make sure to look after her. Don’t worry alright?” She said before walking outside the door.S
" To the new CEO and her company " Joe stood up for the toast and we all did the same thing. " To us " we all yelled and then we drank and then ate that day. All through the dinner,Reyna only thought about one thing all through the night, and it was that she was a contented woman. After the celebration we locked the new building and then decided to head home. We went home in two, Reyna went with Niko while Lucas drove Larisa and Joe home." I will call you when I get home, Reyna, " Larisa said before getting into the car with Lucas and Joe. She waved her hands at Reyna as Lucas started the car and he drove off. Lucas dropped Joe off at his house first because he wanted to have alone time with Larisa. He drove them off in silence, although he had a lot of things he wanted to talk to her about, he was nervous to tell her what was on his mind.Larisa on the other hand was getting impatient due to the silence between her and Lucas because she had wanted to be alone with him all day and s
They both got down from the car and then Reyna took in her surroundings. they were at a small exquisite white two storey building and she could see Joe Lucas and Larissa standing in front of the building and the three of them a to Niko with a smile" I have not even done anything for you " he said with a hearty laugh and she looked away from him back at the house. before she could think Larissa was already squealing out and rushing to meet her friend." I am so happy for you, Reyna. You are successful and so beautiful. We made it through, even after all the tough times we had in school and everything we went through. Larissa said to her friend and she laughed at her friend's choice of words." I'm so happy that we made it to Larissa but I wouldn't have been happier and it wouldn't have been possible if not that I had you by my side. you are everything a girl could ever wish for in a best friend. you made me want to get better and even when I was sad about fashion sometimes you made me
" Hello beautiful, how was your day? Niko said and Reyna blushed at his words over the phone. she knew he was calling her to congratulate her on her success" Hi Niko. where are you?. you missed the whole thing " she said with a pout" I'm so sorry I was held up at work that's why but I'm here now. I need you to come out to the parking lot with your things " he told her and she wondered why he asked her to do that but she wanted to see him too so she had no choice" Okay then I will see you soon. let me just grab my things and then wrap things up inside and then I will come to you. "She said" I will be waiting for you then babe. bye " he said and she ended the call. She walked back to Alvarez and then thanked him again before going inside to grab her things. She told Dylan she was leaving and then she left the hall for the parking lot.She was searching for Niko and his car as she thought of what to do when she finally found him. she wondered if she got her a present and if she shoul
Niko left the building and got into his car before hitting the road. He was going to go and see Reyna today because of what he prepared for her. his father had wasted little of his time because of the nonsense he spilled out. It took a lot of self control to hold himself so he wouldn't have to slap his father because the man knew how to get on people's nerves."Call Lucas "Niko told his car and the car began to dial Lucas's number. he drove slowly while waiting for Lucas to pick up. After the third ring Lucas picked up the phone call."What is going on Niko, I was about to call you when I didn't hear anything from you all morning "Lucas said"I'm sorry I was stopped by my father on my way so I had to listen to what he had to say "Niko said and Lucas laughed. "The news came to him and he decided to come and beg didn't he. don't tell me you listened to him because Niko you have a soft heart "Lucas said and Niko smiled"I have a soft heart but only for the kind of people who deserve it a
"If that is all you have to say then I will take my leave now dad, thank you "Niko said with a forced smile. He tried to leave the room but his father blocked the way."Niko, I want to talk to you about something and you are trying to walk off. I am your father "he said and stopped Niko from going away."And I have nothing to hear from you. I have an important meeting to attend to "Niko said but his father held his hand causing him to stop on his track."What do you want now? "Niko hissed out, anger clearly in his voice"Just listen to me son please, let me come in and we can talk about this Niko please give me a chance "he begged and Niko was silent for a while before he finally spoke"Fine you can come in then "Niko said and his father smiled. He let him enter the office and then he closed the door after them."Niko, I will make this very short. I am your father and I raised you with the help of my wife, your mother "he said"You mean my step mother, the same woman who maltreated me
5 Niko had made a new announcement and that was what Jeremy’s guard had shown him, catching everybody completely off guard, Nirvana had announced that they will be signing a new deal with the Lynch group of companies and that there would be percentage for every company that works with Lynch group of companies or have shares in the companies. There have been a lot of rustle and bustle, interviews both TV and personal since Nirvana announced the new deal. It became the talk of the town and for a big company like Nirvana partnering with another Multi billion dollar company, the news soon spread far and wide. “We got a proposal for this deal from the owner himself and we feel so honored to be considered, really and for everyone that believes in us. We all say a big Thank you to you guys. Expect more from us.” Niko said in one of his interviews. “Board meeting, Now.” Niko called and all the board of directors gathered in the meeting room. It had been a busy day for everybody as e
Jeremy and Niko both laughed it off and just had an handshake and both hugged each other. Reyna came downstairs to meet them. “What? You think I wouldn’t say a personal goodbye to you?” Reyna said as she smiled, making Jeremy also smile. “Bye. Do have a safe trip.” Reyna said, hugging Jeremy and giving him a peck on his cheek. “Thank you. I sure will.” Jeremy said as he laughed and said his goodbye to Niko and Reyna. “You both take good care of yourself.” He added as he hoped in his car to take his leave. The engine revved and the car left the building not long after. They finally got back to the city with Jeremy resting his head on the window and thinking about his meeting with his daughter Reyna and the new memories he looked forward in making with her. Jeremy got home exhausted, making a cup of tea for himself as he thought of everything that has happened these past days. Jeremy thought about visiting his wife’s graveyard before going to the office. Taking a shower, Je
“Thank you.” Jeremy said excited about Reyna agreeing to come see him sometimes and just then Niko made his way back to where he’d left Reyna and Jeremy. Jeremy’s guard came in almost at the same time too to get Jeremy’s stuff. “Careful with that bag, take that first and you can come in for the other.” He told his guard who immediately heeded to the instruction. “I also want to have a word with you, Niko.” Jeremy said as Niko was about to seat, Niko stood back up immediately. “Oh No. Seat, please.” Jeremy said while also having his seat back too. “I’ll leave you both, I need a shower anyway.” Reyna said, standing up and heading into the room. “Okay.” Niko said. “Take care dear.” Jeremy said to her because he knew he might not get the opportunity to see her before he leaves, she seemed tired and had yawned before leaving and he wouldn’t want to disturb her by asking her to wait behind. “So, Niko. I just wanted to say I’m sorry.” Jeremy started and Niko looked sur
2 “Goodness, I am so full.” Reyna laughed, rubbing her belly. “I can’t believe we left Lucas and Larissa there alone.” She added. “Why? They’re adults, they need some alone time just as much as we do, Hence the reason we’re going home for a night of Netflix and chill.” Niko said seductively, raising both eyebrows. “Hmm. Really?” Reyna said equally trying to be seductive too. “We could start the “chilling” here too.” She added, rubbing her palm on his thigh. “No. I love my life, Reyna. Let me live. Not here.” Niko immediately protested and they both laughed. Getting home Niko drove into the building, packed the car properly and both of them got out laughing. They got inside the house to see Jeremy packing his bags, Reyna and Niko looked at each other in confusion, although there was no reason for it. “Oh, you guys are back.” Jeremy said, zipping one of the bags he had packed already. “Yes, we are.” Niko said. “What’s going on?” He added and raised one of his eyebrows in
