" Then what happened?" Martina asked eagerly." Be patient will you?" Her mother softly reprimanded." Your father would come every evening to the cafe and ask the manager to specifically ask me to serve him. It reached to a point all the employees in the cafe didn't bother to attend to him. He would sometimes ask me to accompany him in his table and ofcourse the manager never objected to it. What I didn't know was that he had taken upon himself to pay my salary so my duties were limited. We got to know each other but I never knew he was from a rich family since he used to dress up casually. One evening he proposed to take me out and we agreed that it was to be the following day but that day I didn't come back.My mother's health worsened and she was rushed to the ICU. I had to go accompany her in the hospital. Your father came to the cafe ready to take me out but did not find me" Her mom paused,took a glass of water,took a sip to wet her already dry mouth." At first he thought I had
Looking at her daughter's expecting face, Martina's mom continued." So when his parents came to threaten me for the second time,I had already made up my mind so I agreed. I knew that whatever decision I was making was unjust to him but I could never put the life of my child at risk. His parents then arranged a man and took pictures of me and him being intimate, ofcourse they were still human enough to not make me actually sleep with him. With the pictures as evidence, they demanded that I disappear from the city and if possible from the country. They had made it crystal clear that the moment they got caught of my presence in that city,that will be the end of my life. I used the little money I had and moved out of that city but did not leave the country. I did not have enough to escape to another country nor could I go empty handed and pregnant at top of that to another country. I rented a small house and started job hunting and finally I got a job as a Nanny to a single mother. I wor
" What are you saying mother, how can I ever blame you? If anything I have to thank you for loving and caring for me all those years. You suffered alot just to bring us to this world and suffered even more by raising me singlehandedly and that in a foreign country. I am so proud of you mother." Martina said her voice filled with gratitude.She was thankful that despite the difficulty,her mother loved and took care of her. They may not have lived a fancy life or had luxury things,but her mother ensured that she ate three meals a day,wore decent clothes and went to school just like any other child.Martina saw how her mother had worked herself to sickness just to provide for her. Although their life wasn't smooth each day,she was thankful they had each other. She didn't care about luxury,after all those were materials things but her mother gave her the most priceless and luxurious Love, mother's Love."Am glad you think that. The life I gave you might not be as good as the one your sist
Lucas finished his breakfast and decided to leave but the little woman was nowhere in sight.He knew for sure she is as avoiding him but couldn't place his finger on why though.He decided to go and knock on her door to excuse himself since he was getting late for Office.He walked upstairs and knocked lightly on her door. After a few seconds,the door was opened revealing a beauty clad in a white fluffy towel that covered the places Worth covering.Her hair was still wet and some droplets were falling on her shoulders and disappearing somewhere he wished to take a peek at. She looked fresh and edible.Controlling his thoughts that were even surprising him,he cleared his throat." I will be leaving,thanks for everything." He said and turned to leave before marina could answer him,not like she had anything to say.She just nodded her head even though she knew that he can't see that gesture.She thanked heavens that he was finally gone. Now she can prepare herself and head straight to Of
A week passed by very quickly and the time for Martina and her mother to return to country B arrived.With the help of the cab driver,they loaded their bags and headed straight to the airport.They had arrived an hour earlier to their flight departure time. Martina was excited to finally leave country B,it's not that she didn't love the place,on the contrary she liked and adored the place since it's where she had the most beautiful memories of childhood and growing up. But it was about time she went back to reunite with her family. It was the high time she went and spend quality time with her sister and catch up.Her mother on the contrary had a mixture of emotions. Yes,she was excited but she also felt nostalgic.That is the same country she grew up in, where her mother's remains were buried. It was the place that gave him happiness but also snatched it in a blink of an eye. Her feelings were complicated.After waiting,the announcement to board the plane was broadcasted and the two w
Turning to his secretary, Dimitri fired a number of instructions to him." Get me a new suit as soon as possible. Delay the flight departure by thirty minutes and make sure when we come back,I have all the details I need about that lady. It doesn't matter where you will search,dig any available information about her." Dimitri instructed.Even though his secretary felt that his president's orders were absurd he couldn't complain and will have to carry them to the latter." Yes president."replied the secretary and left to carry out the orders given to him.Dimitri moved to the private lounge prepared by the staff and excitedly did a conference call to his two other friends.Lucas who was reading through some files saw his phone indicating an incoming call. Taking a glance,he saw that it was a conference call from one of his friends Dimitri. He didn't need to be wise to know that the other person was Marcus on the call.The three of them have been friends since childhood and their friend
" Ofcourse I don't do favours for free,you have to pay a small price to get your request done." Marcus replied."Did you hear that? I wonder what he will ask for this time. I still haven't gotten over you robbing me my most treasured island last time." Dimitri complained." Hey buddy,can you compare the damage I saved your ass from if that guy had sued your company. That island is nothing compared to the amount of money you could have lost when your clients lost their faith in you and business partners pulled out their investment on your company." Marcus defended himself.Yes,to help Dimitri he had asked for an island the two if them competed to buy but the owner had chosen to sell it to Dimitri that he looked lesser evil compared to Marcus.Loosing to his friend,he swore to revenge and take that island back so when the chance presented itself with Dimitri in dire need of his help, how could Marcus let go of it.He had offered to help Dimitri with the condition that he had to transfer
Her mother could see the faint blush spreading across her daughter's face and decided to spare her. She just hoped that her daughter will get a good man why who would love and pamper her just like she has been doing. Her time here was limited and even though she had just had a kidney transplant,she was sure it wouldn't push her for more than three years.She just wished that within those three years, her two daughters will find their soulmates and get married and if possible gift her with cute grandkids she can spoil." Are we heading to a hotel or?" Her mother decided to ask and divert the attention of her daughter." No mother,I already bought w house for us here. I didn't buy it literally,I asked my friend to look for a house according to your preference and I just send the money to complete the purchase." Martina explained." That's thoughtful of you but dear,you don't need to do that. It's your house so it should be the house of your choice. I am old now and can make do with anyt
