Javier's POV
4 months later
I can't believe I have been depriving myself from being happy. I and Maria had the best time of our lives. I was so scared she would not forgive me. But she did and I'm grateful for that.
I was on the couch in the living room when she came in and said she'd like to tell me something. I was so curious to know
"We are having a baby" she said shyly
"You're having my baby..." i wanted to sweep her off her feet and swing her around. 'I love you, Maria . I love you, I can't live without you and now you've given me the best news I could ever have hoped for.
Lord, when you walked through that door, with that serious expression, white like a ghost, I thought...I don't know what I thought...that you were going to tell me that you were tired...that I had los

Maria POVI turned and tossed on the bed, and I opened my eyes gradually, and the first thing that came to my mind was the my job"Oh, not again" I shouted.It had become a habit for me to wake up late and I didn't like it no matter how much I tried sleeping early ."Urghhh" i grunted.My phone started ringing, and I rushed over to check who was calling and as I thought it was Emma calling. " babe where the fuck are you, Mr manager is asking about you" she said"Just tell him anything I'll be there soon, on my way" I told her as I risked to grab my toothbrush. I sprinted to the bathroom to take a shower.I quickly took a shower, dried my body up and checked my wardrobe for something to put on, but as usual that's one of the things that always took my time in the morning because I'm very much indecisive."Finally" I shouted while I smiled to my self as I found a Jean and a crop top t
Maria POV I was carrying a tray of chicken with potato stew to the couple who ordered and were already seated when I noticed a dark, tall and gorgeous man seated just opposite the couple. His maroon tie was untied, the top two buttons of his shirt were undone, and his thick hair looked like he'd run his fingers through it recently. She bet he doesn't joke at all, because all he wore was a frown. She was vaguely aware of his other well balanced features, his straight nose, the slash of an unsmiling mouth but it was his dark eyes that held her in there depth, she felt as though he was pulling her toward him with his gaze and she complied. She quickly straightened her black apron and went over to his table as she was the one taking orders. "Good day sir, what would you be having" I asked .He looked at me from head to toe and ignored my greetings. Rude much, but I had to compose my sel
Maria POVMy room was scattered, with clothes litters all around the house, I was pale and unkempt from all the sulking. I was really tired. It's been 2 weeks since I lost my job and I haven't been able to get another job. I tried contacting Mr. James to see if he'd change is mind and give me back my job .I roamed the streets, applied in every company I could think of but all I was told was "we will get back to you" ...I had to snap out of my mood and think of ways to make myself happy, Emma had tried countless times to make me have fun but it was relentless, but tonight I'm going to have all the fun I could think of and no boundaries. So I picked up my phone and dialed Emma's number"Hey baby, you up for clubbing?" I asked."Yaaaaaay!!! Emma screamed, I thought you'd never ask she saidWe agreed to leave for the club by 8pm so she could come home on time and sleep in order to go to work early the next day.
Maria POVIt was just 6: 30 am in the morning , and my phone kept on buzzing and i swore it was Emma trying to run my battery down, but when i picked it up it wasn't Emma calling, so i answered and i heard a woman's voice an elderly voice for that matter."I'm I on to Miss Lopez?" she asked"Yes ma'am" I answered "Congratulations, You have been shortlisted for the job in Ramirez Group of Companies and you'll be required to be in the building before 10 am for your interview with the CEO " she said"Thank you so much, I'll be there" I told her before she ended the call. I quickly jumped of
Maria's POVIts been 2 weeks since i started working at the company, and I must say it has been awesome with a lot of buts. I hardly had time for myself or my friend. Speaking of Emma, she was already complaining on how i had forgotten her, and i don't call anymore, and i totally understood. Work was so demanding. I wake up by 8am everyday, get toI'm work before 9am, work till 7pm, and whenever i get back I'm usually very tired and i have to prepare for work the next day.

The bus finally arrived but it as full of people so I had t
Maria's POVAfter I left Mr Ramirez office I headed over to my office and and grabbed my bag. I needed to get to my apartment and get some stuffs, since he said we'd be leaving for New York in the next few hours."He doesn't care about other people" I thought while trying to catch a bus. I got to my apartment within 30 minutes. As soon as I got in, o grabbed my traveling bag and started parking my things. "Oh, I needed to inform Emma about my trip, so she wouldn't be worried about me" I thought out loud. I picked up my phone and called her"Hey bitch" Emma shouted"Hahhahahahaha, bitch I missed you" I said"Missed you too, I'll be coming to spend the weekend at your place, what do you think?" She asked"That's why I'm calling babe, I'll be leaving for New York with my boss in the next few hours for a business meeting over the weekend and I
Maria's POVJavier showed me my room, and i got settled in. I was so tired, so i took a nap, when i got up i quickly had my shower and picked out a dress (a short body hug gown that showed off my curves). Javier had already told me to rest, before heading to his room which was just opposite mine.I walked to the dressing table and picked up my phone, that was when i realized i had missed calls, all from Javier, just when i was about to call back i heard a knock on my door. I rushed to quickly get a robe to cover up properly, but before i could get to the wardrobe Javier had already come in.He was shocked and his gaze didn't leave me, I felt like he was undressing me with his eyes, and before i knew it we met each other halfway, Javier's arms coming around me .

Maria's POVJavier was discharged after three days, although he couldn't do certain things by himself he was out of harms way and there wasn't any need for him to remain in the hospital. We went home and I made sure I took absolute care of him.The doctor gave him drugs which he'll take for pains. Each time he took the drugs he always felt like sleeping.He tried severally to trick me into his bed, but I knew he wasn't strong enough for what he wanted and I made excuses and avoided such activities.I missed him, seeing him in his naked glory made me feel some type of way but I had to be patient, at least until he recovered.I hadn't had a good sleep for like a week now. I opened one eye. Sunlight poured into the room, marking
Maria's POVI didn't want to stand and here him talk and so i excused myself and left the house. And i intended to have all the fun i could think of. I called Emma to know if she'll be available, but as always she had an excuse. I had to hit the club all by myself.The Uber driver arrived and i enteredIt didn't take us up to 30 minutes before we got to the club.I entered the club, it was full already. I needed scotch so bad. I'd already became a regular customer and so the bartender already knew what I liked taking."Your regular, I know" the bartender asked smiling"Thank you" I replied returning the smileWhile waiting to for him to get my order ready, my mind drifted back to what happened between i and Javier some minutes ago.I wanted to believe every word that came out of his mouth, but my fragile heart can't and won't take it if he hurt me again.The bartender brought out the bottle of scotch and I couldn't
Maria's POVI woke up pretty early the next morning, and I had too quickly creep away since I don't want Javier to see me in his bed when he wakes up. He looked so good, I wanted to stay and watch him all day, but I couldn't.He deserves to be put is he'd severely, I shouldn't forgive him so easily.I'll make him think that our night of passion was nothing to me.I remembered all that went on last night. Them heat hadn't cooled with the setting of the sun. Now, some time after lunch , I sat in icily my room and acknowledged i was hot in part because of the summer's evening, but also, because of the way Javier had looked at me.The way he'd spoken to me.Now, in the privacy of my room, i let out a soft mo
Maria's POVI was enjoying every bit of why he was doing to me and I didn't want it to stop."Maria you shouldn't let this happen". I thoughtBut I threw caution to the wind. It had been a while since we'd been intimate. I knew I should continue but my body needed it . Needed Javier, and so I pulled him in for another kiss, he carried me bridal style and took me upstairs to his room.Moments later, Javier's hand moved, shifting upward and unfastening the front clasp of my bra. And then, without missing a beat, his mouth followed to my breast.That's when o lost touch with reality and lost my grip on any control i thought I had. Javier's tongue stroked my nipples and i became engrossed, totally, irrefutably absorb
Javier's POVThe moment i entered my room, i headed right for the mini-bar. Maria had shaken him to the core. Even just spending time with her had been something else, something simply fantastic. A short while later, as i sat out on my balcony drinking a scotch, i realized that i could still sense Maria's taste, even after the strong drink. It was there, on my lips, mouth and tongue. I closed his eyes for a minute and thought about how Maria had looked last night.Same woman. Same sex appeal. I was convinced that no matter what Maria wore, she would always grab his attention and draw him in.And that was what worried him. He didn't want any woman to have that ability. I'd become used to protecting my heart...and my mental state. I couldn't risk falling into that black hole again.Because the next time, he might not
Javier's POVI carried her out of the club despite the stares, and her screams. I couldn't care less. She tried to pull away, so i carried her and put her in the car. She didn't find this funny because she was fuming, when we finally got to the house, she opened the door and walked out straight into the building.I needed to talk to her and i didn't care how she would react, all i needed to do was get her attention. Before i could get to the living room, she had already climbed up the stairs so i followed suit. Unfortunately for him her door was locked."Damn" I screamed as I kicked the wall.i stood rooted in a place for minutes. "She was doing the right thing, I had no business being in her room" I said to myself.
Maria's POVThings had changed for me. I didn't even care if I hurt myself in the process, a part of me was cut out.I was able to move around the house without the help of Rosemary.Kesha was still around though, she helped me sometimes especially when she wasn't with Diego. Those two I mean Diego and Kesha they where too cute to watch. They loved each other so much, and I wanted to be I there shoes.And while I thought about being like them I thought of only Javier. He was the only man that had my heart, but he'd hurt me beyond my imagination. On the days Kesha was around we'd gist an
Maria's POVI finally came to terms with the fact that I’d lost my baby and I blamed him. I blamed Javier and I didn’t want to lay eyes on him.Javier tried coming to see me but I had the doctors and nurses whichever that was available send him out. I really didn’t want to see him. I only saw flashes of his wickedness each time he came around.Veronica stayed with me at the hospital while Samantha and Andres came visiting sometimes with little Andrea. Mr Francisco Ramirez called once in a while, he’s have loved to be present but he had so many business meetings, and he was glad Veronica, Samantha and Andres where around.“You deserve the love there showing you, I’m sorry for what he did to you , you’ll be alright. I just hope you can ever forgive him” he said during one of our phone conversations
