Rosé POVI could literally feel Navy hold his breath after Alexander’s announcement, overcome with emotions, Tabitha clung to him, with tears streaming down her face, “I just found you,” she sobbed, “I don’t want to die…“You won’t die, ma’am” I reassured her, “Alexander, can you schedule us for the surgery?”“What are you saying?” Tabitha cut in, her voice suddenly firm, “Who is Alexander? Why would I put my life in his hands?!”“Oh…” I exclaimed, her words lingered in the room stifling the air in it. Alexander and I exchanged glances and I mouthed my apologies.“I want the best hospital in Washington, with good doctors who know their patient-doctor boundaries.”“Stop crying, I’ll get you everything to get better,” Navy consoled, patting her back gently.The office held its breath as Tabitha wiped her face dry, stood up, and made her way to the door.“Your car is in the parking lot, isn’t it?” Navy nodded in response. She slammed the door shut and the room released its breath.“Doc

Lighthouse

Navy's POV Cold air whooshed past me as I ascended the stairs of the lighthouse, the evening chills sending shivers down my spine.The lighthouse stood tall, its light cutting through the foggy sky."Why are you sitting here all alone?" I asked, having approached her quietly.Startled by my unexpected presence, Rosé jumped, "You startled me, how did you get here?""I saw the lights on... It is a lighthouse." I teased.Elodie stood up from the little stool to the rims of the balcony. She looked as if she was brimming with thoughts.I waited, eager for her words but nothing came.So I stepped up instead, "I came up to commend you..." I began, breaking the silence, "I see that you're trying." Squinting her eyes halfway, she smiled broadly, "You saw that," she blushed, "Thank you for our first peaceful lunch, it must have taken a lot of self-denial, but you did it for me and I'm grateful." My voice cracked with emotions as Rosé closed the distance between us. "I love you..." She whi

Effortless solution

Rosé’s POVHe knew she was wrong but somehow he still chose her side. As the words left his mouth, my heart sank.“It’s not just a bed, the essence of this room is us. This is our matrimonial bed, and a third person on it is just disrespectful,” I explained, my heart pumping with frustration.I could tell Navy was feeling frustrated too, his eyes flared with irritation as he bellowed,“Why are you making a fuss? We’re not even in a …” he paused, swallowing the obvious remaining words.“When we’re not even in a real marriage,” I bet that’s what he wanted to say but he held back.In a situation where I was busy fighting for what I thought was for ‘us’, it only felt like I was opposing his mother to him. Tabitha’s nicely played theatrics painted a convincing picture of me as the bully and her, as the innocent. She made it look so believable. There was no need to explain myself, the disapproving look on Navy’s face announced his feelings clearly, tears welled up my eyes and threatened t

Love is not the problem anymore…

Rosé’s POVThe new day found me en route Navy’s family home in Italy. I regretted my impulsive decision the moment I rounded up at the large compound. What if showing up unannounced was a mistake? I wondered, my confidence slowly depleting as I took slow steps toward the door.Unexpectedly, the entranceway creaked open, revealing a vaguely familiar face staring back at me.“Enzo?” I raised an eyebrow. Enzo broke into a wide grin, beaming excitedly as he aimed for my handbag.“It’s fine, I can hold it. Please could you inform Mrs Leonardo that I am here?”“Mrs Navidad Leonardo?” He exclaimed in a thick Italian accent.“Yes, yes. That’s me,” I grinned awkwardly, “Then this house is your home as well, please come in ma’am,” Enzo replied.For some reason, he was more cheerful than I last remember. “Is everyone home?” I asked as we advanced to the living room.Enzo nodded, “Everyone except the evil lady Clarissa. We’re finally free from her…”“Oh!” I exclaimed, her absence surely benef

Let go and live.

Paula and I ended our conversation minutes ago, yet I found myself unable to leave Rosé’s room. My mind raced with thoughts, wondering about her whereabouts.Despite Paula’s reassuring words, the lingering fear persisted,- what if she was somewhere in the streets, passed out like the day I found her outside my gate!Trauma, it seemed had taken hold of me, sending messages that stirred unimaginable emotions in my mind.Tossing the phone away, I slumped on the bed. My hands went to my head, as if holding it tightly would keep my thoughts together.A wave of unexplainable emotions hit me, but above all, fear and regret gripped my mind leaving me momentarily lost.Unexpectedly, a soft knock echoed in the room, I looked up to find Tabitha staring back at me. “Is everything alright?” She asked tenderly.In that moment, my troubled heart broke down, admitting my overwhelming emotions.

Crazy-happy men

106NAVY'S POVEveryday was the same now, I woke up with the same emptiness and ended the day drunk. Still, Tabitha insisted it as progress. "You can only get better after now..." She’d say, "now, get up. Breakfast is ready"I sat up from the bed and unexpectedly held her down as she tried to leave."Is everything alright?" "I won't be around for your surgery tomorrow..." I began, Tabitha furrowed her brows quizzically, waiting for an explanation."I'm traveling..." I continued, "To where? We've discussed this severally. You're not a child, Valentino. How long has it been?""Five days," I mumbled,"And she hasn't reached out to you yet. You can't let her keep,...""I'm not going to her, Tabitha." I cut in."Oh!" She paused abruptly, "It's a business travel, might take a week or two...""Oh, that's a long time, but it's good. I'll be waiting when you come home." She said, finally walking away.The door slammed shut and I buried my face in my pillow.Recently, the moments I held my

Margaritas or Tequila sunrise

NAVY'S POV"Oh, come on! That is barely even a matter. The French Government are just being mean!" Monsieur Luc vented as Taylor poured him another glass of whiskey."Luc, allow him speak for a second. What were you saying about Rosé? I am quite curious," Trent leaned in,I exhaled loudly, covering my face with my hands."I’d rather not talk about it..." "Well, to hell with the story!" Luc exclaimed, "let's drown our sorrows in a full glass of whiskey and gulp it in one go, it'll burn down our throat and wash away all these pain in one go.""You must crazy," Trent reposted."He's not crazy, he's just drunk. This is our third bottle, sir" I quipped, barely able to keep my eyes open. "Should we call it a night, gentlemen?"Trent blinked in disbelief, "I didn't think anyone was waiting for you at home," "Well, no one is..." I replied hesitantly."Good then, because we are to a club next. I know a bad place""Club?" Luc exclaimed urgently, "my wife will kill me,""It's just one night, m

Knee-deep

Luc widened his eyes, mimicking my expression.“You can’t remember calling her by another woman’s name even though you were knee deep inside the young girl. How wicked of you?!” He teased. “Why am I here? How long have I been asleep for? Why did I pass out that way? I would never sleep with my assistant, what did I drink? What did you give me?”“Don’t make a fuss about it, boy. It’s just sex. What is the need of denying yourself some pleasure? Just do it, she didn’t sound like she hated it anyway…”“Why are you saying it like you were there?!”“Oh, everyone was there. You two were literally calling us all to watch. And that girl, you kept calling her Elodie.” “What?!” My jaws dropped, “I…” words failed me.Just then. Trent strolled in with an air of aloofness,“Nobody saw you, champ, relax. But he’s right about every other thing… and your phone has been ringing.”“Don’t you have a life outside work? Your design ‘Elodie’ is on every billboard now. Just have fun and relax,” he contin

The day he’d come for me

I lost the motivation to do anything or go anywhere. I just wanted to document my pregnancy journey, every moment of the day. But even that had gotten boring, I lost interest in it when every passing day was a painful reminder that my daughter might not have her father, just like me.For days I was strong, I held it all in and ate breakfasts and dinner whilst battling a sore lump in my throat. I missed him, in a way unimaginable, it ached. I would've rather taken our fights over the absolute absence.Every day I woke up, I silently prayed the day would be the day he came for me."Hi happy pregnant lady, how is your documentary going? Can I see?" Maya's chappy voice echoed in the silence, bringing me from my thoughts.Maya, by the way, had been a huge sponsor of my documentary, I owed her a time view at least.Unwillingly, I pivoted the laptop to her, pressing the play button.Gentle, soothing music began to play in the background, as the visuals of my stomach progressing for the las

Loving is hard

NAVY'S POVPerhaps it was the fact that Luc and Trent were so convincing that my time with Taylor meant nothing."Tell me, will you see her when you go back to Washington?""She knows exactly what it is, son. Don't be too bothered about it." Luc emphasized.One drunken night with Taylor turned into two and then to three.Soon, we had lost count of how many nights we spent together. I grew more comfortable in Luc's house than the hotel suite booked for me.For weeks in Paris, I lived the fast life, clubbing and partying with Trent and Luc half the time, and living in Taylor's spread legs the other half. I had so much occupying my mind that Elodie was completely pushed to the back of my mind.To be honest, until I shoved the door open and heard her exchanging words with Tabitha, I had completely forgotten how chaotic it was with her at home."Are you sure you want me to leave?" She asked, her voice quivering with emotions.Well, I needed my peace. I needed the life I had in Paris. Happ
