Roof-Top Surprise

"Hmmm, she's so smart. Serious with her job even though she knows she can just sit at home all day and you take care of her bills. And she works hard for her money. Gregory, how on earth did you score this girl? Teach me, I want to learn, before loneliness deals mercilessly with me." "I thought you said you weren't lonely?" "You know my solution to loneliness is only temporary," Max said. Gregory laughed. "Max, stop, please. You're killing me." "Well, hopefully, you'll give me tips one day. But while we're waiting for that, I think I should make my proposition first. I'd like to hear her reply. How soon can we start working on these features?" Max enquired. "I'm ready when you are. You have to let me know when you're all set, financially." Gregory said. "Alright, let me just put some things together. I'll let you know." Max stared at Gregory for a while before he decided to say what was o

To Fall For Him

"I'd love to visit again, with you," Rosie said boldly. Gregory's smile widened, and his dimples deepened. "I'll take you there." He told her. "Let me know when you're ready to visit so that I can book a reservation for us." "Oh Greg, today is so beautiful. I can't remember the last time I was pampered like this." she walked over to his seat and hugged him from behind his seat. He lifted her hand close to his lips and kissed her fingers. "Why... you're a beautiful woman Angel. You deserve to be pampered, always." he stroked her arm. They remained like that for a while before Rosie released her hold and moved over to face him. She whispered the words he hadn't been expecting. "Can I kiss you, Greg?" Gregory pulled her to his lap and captured her lips in a sensual kiss like his life depended on it. The band stopped playing and filed out, followed by the security who locked the entrance door behind him. "Thank you for being my biggest cheerleader. I feel like I'm in bloo

Speak No Evil Of The Dead

Owen was seated comfortably on one of their sitting room sofas. Rosie's mood automatically changed. She looked around and saw her mother seated in the dining section while Annie sat beside the short stairs that led to the kitchen. The air in the room was completely tense, and she didn't need to be told that Owen was not welcome. "Hi, Rose." Owen greeted, standing up immediately when he saw her. "What are you doing in my house?" She asked, ignoring his greeting. "Good evening Mom, Annie." She greeted her family and they responded. Evelyn Bainer pretended she was focused on her phone while Annie had her eyes on her sister and uninvited visitor. "I... I came to see you." He stuttered. "You must be raving mad to think that you can walk into my home whenever you care to and say rubbish after insulting me and my family. Are you that stupid?" She asked in annoyance. Owen stared at Rosie, alarmed at her choice of words and her sophisticated appearance. He'd never seen her look n

Kathrine Johnson

"Angelina!!" He exclaimed. "Do not speak of your mother in such a manner ever again. Do you understand?" He warned sternly. When she didn't offer a reply, he asked again. "I need to know that you understand what I just said, Angie.""I understand." She grumbled. A few seconds of tense silence passed. Then she broke the silence by asking about Rosie in a much better tone, changing the topic. "How's Roseline?" Gregory sighed. "She's fine." He drew her to an embrace. "Your mother was human and no matter what she did, she deserves our forgiveness.""You love her? I'm not talking about the dead. I'm asking about Roseline. Do you love her?" She asked, shifting the topic back to Rosie. "I see the way you look at her, the way your mood lightens up when her name is mentioned, and the way you smile when you see her. Does she feel the same way about you?" "Hopefully, she'll get there soon. I'm working hard to make sure of that." He replied, creating a smile on Angelina's

Bernard's Disturbing Disclosure

"Clean this mess up," Kathrine told one of the armed men in the building. "Trace the name and numbers she gave us. I would love to meet them all." She said.Angie quickly rushed back to the car. She met Rufus already coming to find her. They went back to the car and were fast enough to get comfortably seated before Kathrine joined them."You took a while before coming back, Mommy," Angie told her mother immediately after she got into the car."Drive now." She told Rufus then turned over to Angelina. "I had a little issue that needed my attention. But I'm here now, what do you want? Would you like candy sticks?" She asked, touching Angie gently on the cheeks. Angie shook her head. "No, I just want to go home.""Me too Baby. Look," she posted at one of Angelina's favorite signs. "That's proof, we're almost home."Angie nodded. "When will Daddy return?" She asked, wishing her father was around, as she wanted to share what she saw with him."Soon baby." Her

A Disturbing Disclosure

They arrived at the Eatery after a few minutes' drive. Rosie was helped out of the car by Bernard. She saw the name of the place and chuckled. They were welcomed at the entrance and directed to an empty table. The Eatery was neat, well-furnished, and upscale. A clear statement from Bernard that he knew just how to flaunt his wealth.It was rumored that he was paid as much as his immediate Boss because of his high intellectual capabilities and the fact that he brings a lot to the company. And it is clear as air that Global Link cannot afford to lose a staff such as him. They ordered for food with Bernard settling for Spaghetti and Rosie for wheat swallow and seafood okra."Mushroom," Rosie said adjusting in her seat. "Who gives their restaurant such a funny name." She laughed heartily."I had the same reaction the first day I visited. I couldn't hold back my surprise." Bernard responded. "But, do not let the name deceive you. They are very good. I must say that

Age Difference

"Annie, I need to tell you something. It's really important." Rosie said, staring wide-eyed at her sister. As usual, it was the weekend and she was home. After the lunch she had with her Boss, she realized it was best to start the journey of introducing Gregory to her family pretty soon. She then made up her mind that it was best to tell Annie first. Then see how she'll accept the news before proceeding to their mother. But even though she'd made the decision, it took her weeks to finally muster the courage to actually open up. It was one of those lazy weekends and they were watching a movie together in the sitting when she decided to break the news to Annie."What is it? And what's with the look on your face?" Annie asked. "I don't know how to start," Rosie replied, calmly. "It's about my love life..., Gregory." "Oh my Goodness! You guys are going through rough patches? What is it about? Whatever it is, you can always resolve it. There is no perfect couple. Most people go th

From The First Day I Saw You

Tuesday morning, Rosie worked till 3:45 pm before heading to her Boss's office to take the rest of the day off on account of feeling weak and dizzy. Bernard insisted on taking her to the hospital or home at least. But after spending a couple of minutes convincing him she could take care of herself, he reluctantly let her go. She arrived at Brass a little past four and met Genevieve, the crazy secretary. Recalling their previous encounter, she smiled and she walked up to her. "Good evening ma'am." She greeted. "Is Gregory around?" The secretary looked her up and down and let out a mocking laughter. "He's not on seat." She replied and turned her focus back on her monitor. "Where did he go to?" She asked politely. "My Boss, Mr. Gregory Johnson is not on seat Madam. Even if he were to be on seat, I'd never let a disrespectful brat like you inside his office. If you really wish to see him, get an appointment." She said again.

Family Dinner

The Bainers were busy getting their dining space set for dinner while anticipating the arrival of Gregory, their guest for the night.The dining table was adorned with faux flowers and vases. The china set, carefully and neatly arranged on the table. Evelyn had brought out her best tableware.Having set up the dining space and arranged the whole house, she sat down in the sitting room with her daughters, awaiting their guest."Honestly, I never knew this house could be this sparkly. I can see my reflection in the tiles." Annie said, causing an uproar of laughter."That goes to show how lazy you and your sister are." Evelyn replied."Me?" Rosie asked surprised. "I don't even live here.""Not living with us doesn't exempt you from sweeping and tidying up the house whenever you are around. And don't tell me you tidy the house because if you do, your sister wouldn't have made such a statement." Evelyn replied."Annie," Rosie called. "Look what you cause with

Who Killed My Father?

Inside the house, Rosie met her mother pacing the room. Annie was seated on the sofa with her phone. "You cannot be with that man," Evelyn stated once her daughter stepped inside the house. "He should be in his mid-forties, Rosie." "He's fifty-five." Rosie corrected. "Fifty what? Jesus Christ!! That's worse. What's going on honey? Don't I love you enough? Daddy is not here, I know, but I've been trying to fill that void. You can't be with that man because you miss your father. There's a difference between the relationship you would share with your father and that of your spouse." Evelyn explained. "He has a name, Mommy. Don't refer to him as that man. And Daddy's absence has nothing to do with my relationship with him." Rosie paused. "Mom, Gregory understands me, he's patient, he supports me, goes out of his way to see me happy. I've had a fair share of assholes in my life. But this is a good man. He makes me happy, can't you see." "He has more experience than you, Rosie. He'
