Aria laid in bed that night but couldn't sleep a wink. Her mind was reeling with thought of Frank and what he might have come to say to her.
He looked pretty desperate and even agitated at the sight of another man at her door step but she was too pissed to be moved by his reaction or give him a listening ear not to mention worrying about how that would make him feel.
It was not like they were in a relationship but still she felt weird about the whole encounter earlier.
The fact that he thought she would let him in anytime he shows up claiming he has something to say to her just to get her attention and maybe let him in again annoys her to no end.
Aria was well aware of his antics. If he was at her door steps and acting like he owned her then it could be because he needed her for one thing or the next.
Because even though she has left his company months ago, it still felt like nothing has changed with him dragging

1597 word(s*Aria was feeling too lazy and sleepy to get into the shower as soon as she stepped into her apartment. She has Henry to blame for making her eat so much and heavy.Pulling her shoes off, she plopped down on the bed while lazily reaching down for her zipper before peeling the blouse off.She reached for her face wipe and began dragging it across her face in an attempt to clean the little make up that was still lingering on her face.She went into her bathroom to brush her teeth after changing into her pink silk nightie before dashing back out towards the living room to ensure her front door was securely locked from the inside.Satisfied with her actions, she turned off the switch and wall socket before making for her room. She didn't make it far before she heard a muffled voice outside her door.Wondering if it was Henry, she switched on the light before walking back towards the door but without unlockin

*Frank woke up the next morning to a ray of sunlight pouring in through the curtains. He raised his palm in other to shield his face a little but made it worst when he rolled over and landed on the hard floor with a thud.Poking an eye open, he struggled to get back on his feet but couldn't. He wobbled back on the floor before realizing that his feet were tangled with a pair of sky blue blanket pooling at his feet and any sudden movement would only have his face kissing the floor yet again.Groaning in frustration, he untangled himself free before lounging back on the cushion and finally taking in his surrounding.The first thing he recognized was the photo frame hanging on the creme painted wall.His shoes were neatly arranged beside the cushion while his suite jacket hung on the opposite one. His throat felt dry and itchy not to mention the throbbing pain in his head when he bend over with his head in between his hands.

Aria went back in to meet Frank by the door with his jacket hanging across his shoulder and ready to leave."Wait! Where are you going?""Home!""What about breakfast?""Doesn't matter! Just hurry up and go meet your boyfriend""My what?""I heard you talking to him by the door okay? So I rather not inconvenience you right now. so am leaving"She quickly stood in his way as he was about to walk by her."Look, i don't know what you heard but Henry is not my boyfriend"Frank only scoffed at her statement."Okay fine! You win. Henry is not my boyfriend. I just lied about Henry and I being lovers because I was mad at you""You expect me to believe that?"She replied with a shrug. "What else do you need to believe""What is he doing here so damn early in the morning if he isn't what you say he is"Aria couldn't help but chuckle hard at his jealousy. Who knew he had it in him.

**Aria was speechless and at the same time hyperventilating as every single breath was being knocked right out of her lungs. She continued to blink rapidly as she slowly began to registered all the words he has just said in her head.Gosh, she knew this day would come when someone will ask her to be his girlfriend. She had dreamt about this day and even cried about it too but she never imagined it would be this special. Or should I say unexpected?And when she finally found her voice, she said the only word hanging on the tip of her tongue."Yes!_yes, I will be your girlfriend" she half yelled and squealed.Reaching across the table, he cupped her face in between his palm and kissed her long and hard before pulling away.I bet he has been wanting to do that all evening."Thank you" he beamed at her.Picking up his glass of champagne, he raised it to her."I want to make a toast""Okay" holding hers with a s

*Henry has been avoiding Aria the very moment she introduced Frank to him and somewhat hinted that they were now in a relationship even though he was still nice to her whenever they run into each other every now and then at the parking lot or during the weekend.Aria couldn't understand his sudden change in attitude but she didn't read much meaning to it either. She has always considered him to be a good friend and that won't change any time soon.Maybe he has been busy with work at the hospital but even at that, he always found time to hang out with her back when he was working double shift at the same hospital which kind of brought her to the realization that he could be avoiding her on purpose.That faithful evening, Aria decided to confront Henry about his sudden change in behavior as she patiently waited for him to return from work as usual.She waited for hours for his return and as soon as she heard his foot steps along the co

*Lunch time with Frank turned out better than she has thought. It was a proposal in disguise. Not a marriage proposal but she got the kind of offer no one has extended to her before.Frank had requested that she accompany him to go see his mom at the Okoji resident at Ikeja.Aria went from being surprised to having a nervous break down within a blink of an eye as she sat there staring at Frank and hoping for it to be a joke but he was dead serious because he seemed to be wearing one of those his facial expression that screamed 'am serious'She didn't know how to react to the news and Frank seem too excited for her to turn him down. Aria wasn't ready and she knew it.Going to meet his mother could be a big deal if not the real deal. She continued to bite down against her lower lips in silent panic as she stared at the couple occupying the next table to their left.They seemed so in love.Was she in love?She took a minute

**Never in Aria's wildest dreams did she imagined she'd be spending the night at the Okoji's resident and on such short notice.No one mentioned she would be sleeping over on her very first day of visitation. At least she would have come prepared and not dressed in an alter necked chiffon with a high waisted skirt.You'd think it was easy to just say no and that will be it. The moment the old lady turned on her charm and even sniff a few tears, she knew she couldn't say no even if she wanted to and just so you know_she even went down with a seizure at the very thought of Aria turning down her request and that my friends was how she ended up spending her very first night at the Okoji resident alongside her boyfriend,in his old bedroom.Aria couldn't bear for them to leave her at that state she was in even though something told her, Frank was indifferent about it much to her disappointment.She was his mom for Christ sake

**Aria realized she was snuggled up against Frank in bed the next morning the moment she opened her eyes.Frank on the other hand was still snoring away with his arm snaked around her waist and holding her in place.She leaned in a bit closely and tracing every features on his face with the tip of her finger. His full eyebrow was perfect, falling against each other in a well defined line. She caressed the bridge of his nose leading to his chiseled cheekbone before pecking him on the side of his lips."I would have really preferred that kiss on my lips you know?" Frank had told her before poking each eye open, one at a time.She jolted back a little at the sound of his voice."So you weren't sleeping?""I was actually waiting for you to kiss me out of my slumber" he replied with a smile."You will have to wait till I brush before you get that kiss"He grabbed hold of her before she could hurry o

Wings Of Change ~Epilogue ~
Seven years has gone by so quickly_and nothing has changed with the Okoji's as they seemed to be growing side by side and deeper in love with each other with each passing day.Frank was still the perfect husband and father to their daughter. Even his staffs at the office could swear that he was now a better boss than what he used to be. With the new promotional policy that include a fat cheque and family trip to vacation outside the country during the holiday season was enough to make him the best employer of each year.To say everything was moving on well was an understatement. Their lives was close to being perfect.Aria on the other hand would visit her parent occasionally with her daughter so she could get to meet her cousins and grandparent. She decided to quit her job at the publishing firm at some point just so she could focus more on spending as much time with her family as she possibly could while taking up writing as a side hobby.Her litt
Wings Of Change ~soft skin ~
Thirty minutes later, Frank walked into the private room where Aria was admitted and placed little Evergreen who was still sleeping in her carrier on the sofa right beside the bed.Feeling overwhelmed and emotional, he plopped down beside her on the bed before caressing the soft skin on her cheek.The heart monitor was beeping as if it was counting her heart beat on a steady repeat. Her oxygen tube was sticking out of her nose uncomfortably. Aria chest was barely rising and falling under the sheet she was nicely tucked into.Aria looked more asleep than in a coma. Her thick mass of brown hair was brushed backward and hidden under a blue hair net to avoid getting in the way.Her skin look really pale without getting much sunlight as she has been kept in that room for way too long now. The white curtains covering the window was half drawn to allow only a bit of air into the room.Frank took hold of her IV free hand in his and gave it a little s
Wings Of Change ~not guilty ~
*Frank felt awfully uncomfortable as he sat between his mother and best friend in the nearly filled courtroom with a clenched jaw that clearly expressed his dislike for being there.He rather be home with his daughter or at the hospital with Aria but that moment was because of her and missing out on the final court hearing against her captor was not an option he'd like to consider.To think that Henry was pleading not guilty to all the charges levied against him, causes every blood running through his vein to boil with anger and the hair on the back of his neck to stand on edge.Henry has no single act of remorse in his heart not even after all he has done.Aria was in a pitiful condition because of him and it would be over his dead body to see him walk out of there, a complete free man. He already made sure of that by hiring one of the best attorney he could find.His lawyer, barrister Roland_ has assured him that Henry wasn't gettin
Wings Of Change ~bloodline ~
Frank sat with blood shot eyes as he searched Sandra's face for anything that proofs that all she had told him was nothing but pure lies from the pit of hell but the more he looked at her, the more he realized it was nothing but the absolute truth.His hands was balled into a tight fist by his side with muscles trailing the walls of his neck at the shocking revelation.Frank was beyond livid at that point as he was struggling against whatever anger that was coursing through his veins at none other than himself."How?" He growl at her."It's all started when you left for London and your father offered me a job to be his secretary. I thought he did it because of how close we were but sooner than later_I found out his real reason for doing it" she took a pause before she continued. Her eyes barely meeting his due to the shame and guilt that was all too visible to the eyes."I tried everything possible to resist him but not for long because you were go
Wings Of Change ~step brothers ~
**It's been two whole month already and Aria still hasn't woken up from her coma. Even though the doctors had assured Frank over a month back, that her chances of waking up was pretty high but even at that, she still hasn't shown any sign of waking up other than the little twitching of her hand that had occurred more than twice during his frequent visit.The doctor had explained it to be her reflexes but Frank would rather not give up on her recovery_reflexes or not. That was the only proof that she was still in there and could also hear him talking to her too.Frank made sure to visit every single day as the hospital was practically his second home at that point. He spend most of his time there beside her bed and making sure she was getting the treatment she needed.He wanted to be right there when she wakes up. The first person she looks at and have her know how much he has missed her and finally be able to see her beam her charming smile at him
Wings Of Change ~racing heart ~
Frank had arrived with Aria back at the hospital some minutes later and refused to leave her side even for a second as he was mounted protectively by the door of the theatre.Both his mother and friends stood beside him in silent. No one was willing to say any word out loud as their head was hanging low in silent prayers for everything to turn out well.They had endured so much during this few days and couldn't bear to face any more than they already had been made to go through."She will be alright man" Kelvin had assured him with a gentle tap to his already tense shoulders.Frank only gave a small nod in acknowledgement. Probably too overwhelmed to say anything as he continued to glance ahead.Lizzy stood by the far left beside Frank's mother with tense shoulders. She could barely look Frank in the eyes when she was let in as well. Her guilt was eating away at her grief.Lizzy couldn't believe she had played a part in her friend's misfortu
Wings Of Change ~contractions ~
**Frank continued to pull relentlessly at his restraint over and over again while trying to break free and reach for Aria who had passed out cold on the bed at this point.She hasn't lifted a finger since Henry had abruptly left her on the bed and hurried out the door without a word.Frank knew something has gone wrong and was dying to get to her and began dragging the chair he has been tied to across the floor in a bit to get to her. Even though he kept calling at her, he wasn't sure if she could even hear him which only fueled his need to break free.He was half way across to her when Henry returned and rushed over to her side on the bed and scooped her into his arms for a moment before placing her back gently against the bed."What's happening to her" Frank had hissed angrily at him but Henry gave no reply as his only focus was on Aria and getting her to respond somehow.He cursed under his breath a few times after he felt
Wings Of Change ~psycopath ~
*Aria has no idea how long Henry has been gone but she knew he'd be back soon and had to move faster. She hurried back to the bathroom and searched for anything sharp but found only an old toothbrush stuck at the trash can and quickly retrieved it.Breaking off the edge against the hard floor, she rushed over to the door and began to use the edge to pick the locks in hope it would come off.She could feel the hard imprint of the locks pressure, pressing against her palm but she was far from giving up.It was either now or never.She was half drenched in sweat and her own tears by the time the lock finally came off. Her joy was short lived when she felt another wave of pain shot through her and making sure to draw a wail of agony from her lips.The contraction was becoming more frequent than normal. She noticed the warm liquid trailing down her thighs and knew her water has broken.The inevitable was about to happen and
Wings Of Change ~sick bastard ~
*"So where are we travelling to" Aria had asked Henry out of the blue still munching on her chicken.A little smile creep up across his face at her question. He wasn't expecting it but he was happy she was showing interest in his proposal.He was expecting her to resist some more and not agreed readily. But either way he was eager to give a reply."We can travel to anywhere you like. Just say the word and we are out of here" he spoke enthusiastically."So you are telling me that you'd throw away your career and whole life just to run away with me?""Not exactly but for now, yes!. We can always settle somewhere and I could start up a clinic there" he explained with a thoughtful look in his eyes.Aria only replied with a small nod. Still deep in thought. She was processing a lot at that moment without giving away anything.If Henry was willing to give up everything then it could only mean one thing. He won't hesita
