💕Madison’s POV💕
“I have to take care of something”he said stumping away…did I do something wrong again?
I sighed and stood up and walked away from the garden,I went back to clas-s and hvgged sadly placing me head on my desk as soon as I got to my seat
“How’d it go”Crystal asked and I raised my head up with a sad sigh
“He just..left”I said with a shrug and Bianca frowned
“What do you mean”Crystal asked
“Well,I did see him in the garden and then he asked me since when I’ve i had my baby said 2 years and then he said “what’s the name of the lucky guy” and I said Mitchell”
“Wait…what lucky guy?”Bianca asked
“Um..my son”
“You think its your son he’s talking about and there’s a possibility he’s talking about your b©yfri£ndor should I say ex”Crystal said and I g@sped…that might be true
“Oh my God”I g@sped
“Yeah..now the next time you get to talk to him,the first thing you should do is to tell him you were talking about your son and you don’t I repeat you don’t have a b©yfri£nd..got it?”Bainca said and I nodded
💕Romeo’s POV💕
I’ve made up my mind not to get too close to Abby anymore so as not to get hurt..I have no chance with her so I’ll just stick to my “girlfriend”
Mum has been gone for a day and I guess she’s been busy..since the greatest competition of all times is coming up soon,jeez I nee-d a shower and I also nee-d to call her
I dialed her number and thank God she picked
📞”my baby”she cooed
📞”mummy”I whined and she laughed
📞”I’m sorry for not telling you before I travelled”
📞”no problem mum..where are you
📞”Russia..settling things in preparation of the competition
📞”ooh
📞”yeah..so how’s my baby doing
📞”I’m…I’m not fine mum
📞”what happened
📞”why didn’t you tell me you knew Abby mum
📞”oh..so you found out
📞”Yeah..and I heard you’re also sponsoring her..that’s nice of you
📞”Merci”she said in a french accent and i smiled
📞”but…
📞”but what
📞”mum…she..she has a son mum..and it..it hurts..it hurts so damn much
I la-id on the be-d with a loud sigh and I heard her chuckle
📞”and why exactly are you hurt
📞”well,if she has a son that mean she has a b©yfri£ndor a husband
📞”okay…so you’re hurt because you wanna be her b©yfri£ndor husband
I can swear she’s sm-irking right now
📞”well,I..I uh
📞”mmm-mmm
I sighed and face palmed myself
📞”okay fine…I wanted to be more than a friend to her,I wanted her to love me..I wanted to be her..her man
📞”wait…so does this mean..you love her
I sighed in frustration..this woman would taunt me to death if I should say the truth
📞”um..I think I do
📞”aarrrrrrghhhh”she squealed so loud loud almost blocking my ear drums…I bet she’s jumping round the house right now
📞”finally,my baby is in love..oh my goody goody
Sometimes mum acts like a baby..what the hell is goody goody..gosh I have one hell of a mum
📞”you have to tell her ASAP
📞”not happening mum
📞”what!!
📞”yeah..she has a son-a two year old at that
📞”how did you know
📞”well,we talked and she told me she he’s 2years old and I asked the lucky guy’s name and she said Michelle”
I called the name with disgust and mum bur-sted into laughter..she paused for a while and she resumed her laughter..and its getting annoying
📞”mum”I whined
📞”sorry sorry…she said Mitchell right?
I hummed and she chuckled
📞”you know what,I think you’re being a baby…and I’m pretty sure you haven’t had a heart to heart talk with her..all I’m going to say is that,talk to her..not just some petty talk but a heart to heart kind of a talk,then you’ll find your answers
📞”what do you mean
📞”I’m not repeating myself…just do as I said..now if you would excuse me,I’ve got business to attend to..don’t forget momma loves you
📞”love you to mum..
📞”bye lover boy..gosh my baby is in…
I hanged up before she could squeal the “L” word into my ears again..I said I think I’m in love with her not I’m in love with her..gosh!
I’m not talking to anyone..I’ve gotten heartbroken enough,its until she tells me the first time she and “Michelle”had S-x before I learn my lesson
I’m sleepy not talking..I’m just gonna admire her form afar..I guess I’ll just wait for the feelings to go
I ru-bbe-d the back of my n£¢k and went into the bathroom..operation try your best to avoid Abby..here I come
I hope I don’t die during the curse
ONE WEEK LATER
💕Madison’s POV💕
I’m gonna die..sorry,I’m dead,I’m dying…I have died..I’m DEAD!!!!
Romeo has been avoiding me like a plague for the past one week,its killing me…
I text him,he doesn’t reply..even if he does he treats me like some stranger,sometimes her doesn’t come to school and I’m very sure he’s doing that to avoid me,I don’t know what I did
I really wanna hear his voice again..I miss his smile,I miss him-a lot
“St©p putting on this long face Abby,he’ll come around”Crystal said and i scoffed
“You’ve been telling me that for the past 7days…when exactly is he gonna come around..I wanna see him”I gro-an ed and I la-id on the gras-s
“I wonder what’s up with him..i tried calling him but he doesn’t pick and sometimes it doesn’t connect”Bianca said
“I’m fed up…the competition is in 3days and I’m not even in the right state of mind…I just wanna talk to him and say I’m sorry for whatever I did that is ma-king him avoid me,is that too much to ask”
“Hey Abby chill,don’t worry,I have a feeling you’ll both get to talk.”Crystal said
“You sure?”
“Not 100 percent but I believe”she said and I nodded with a small sigh..I hope so,i just wanna talk to him
I got home from school really tired,I made dinner and petted Mitch to sleep…He’s not slee-ping anyways just cudd-ling with his teddy bear
I slumped on my be-d with my gaze on my phone wishing I’ll see a call with “Romeo” written boldly as the caller,I think I have to put my pride aside and text him
Yeah..I’ll do that
I went to whatsapp and cli-cked on his messages..I took a de-ep breath before I started punching my feelings out with the keyboard
I finished typing and I was contemplating we-ther to s£nd or not when Mitchell turned and in the process,pushed my hand to the s£nd bu-tton
“No no no”I screamed staring furiously at my phone..okay calm down Maddy..at least he’ll know you miss him and you’re sorry for whatever you might have done..yeah..de-ep breaths Maddy,don’t freak out
I tried to stand up but I felt a sharp pain at my lower abd0m£n..I stood up properly and the pain wors£ned..no plea-se don’t tell me its today..I reached for my phone and checked the calendar..holy Christmas it’s today
This is bad this is really bad..the pain wors£ned and I slumped on the ground
“Ouch”I winced out in pain and Mitch c@m£ running to me
“Mama what’s wrong”he asked and I couldn’t reply,the pain was too unbearable..I couldn’t even move my legs..all I did was to gr0@nand wince
“Mama..”He called with concern in his voice..I nee-d to call someone but I can’t even move my hands,my phone is on the be-d
“My..my..ouch”I cried out-louder and more pain filled this time..I was alre-ady crying with my hands clutched ti-ghtly round my tummy
“Mama…mama your tummy?”he asked with tears welling up in his eyes and I nodded
“Mama”he called placing his little hands on my tummy ru-bbing it softly
“It hurts”I winced and he wailed….Mrs.Russ isn’t coming home today,she and her kids went to visit her mum who is sick..why did this devil choose to come today of all days?
I was still wincing in pain when I heard my phone ring..thank God..I hope its Bianca or Crystal
“Mama..your phone”
“Go..go..b..bring…”i strained out my voice and it seems he got the message because he hurried to where my phone was and brou-ght it to me..I didn’t even check who the called was,I just picked it
“Abby”I heard Romeo’s voice
“Ro…ro..ouch”I winced with tears streaming down my eyes
“Abigail,what’s wrong what’s happening..are you okay”
“Mama..mama tummy hurts”Michelle screamed and I was grateful for that
“Your tummy hurts?..okay I’m coming right now,I’ll be there in a sec”
“Hurry”
That c@m£ out as a whisper filled with pain
“Mama..you’re gonna be okay..”Mich as-sured and I held his hands..Romeo a hold come quic-k..I’m dying here
💕Romeo’s POV💕
“I’m fed up with your childishness Romeo..is that even an excuse?”Ken fired and I rolled my eyes
“What exactly do you want me to do then”I fired back
“How about you get your $h!t together and st©p behaving like a d!¢k..talk to her or better still go to her place and talk to her face to face…why would you say you’re trying to get rid of your feelings by avoiding her..look that’s a bad decision..who cares if she has a kid or some b©yfri£nd..you are Romeo Grande,getting a girl isn’t ha-rd ”
“I don’t wanna get her like that,I wanna make her fall in love with me,make her feel the same way I feel about her”
“Well,how do you intend doing that by sitting here,su-cking on some chocolate bar with a bottle of Vodka..look,you’re getting stupid..talk to Abby or I cut your ba-lls off and give it to her as a gift”
.
“You’re insane”
“No..you are the insane one here..look,dude just get your act together mhen”
“I’ll think about it”
I took my helmet and exited the bar
“Think about it?..I don’t want you to think i want you to take actions..go get the girl”he screamed trailing behind me and I sighed as I got on my bike
“Look,I drank quite a lot and I’m tired,I nee-d a good night sleep..we’ll talk about this tomorrow okay”
“You never listen”he huffed and I laughed as I wore my helmet
“I know..see ya buddy”I sped off with a sm-irk on my face..Ken Ken Ken…such a trouble
I got home and I started undressing as soon as I got to the front door..I’m really exhausted
I glanced at my phone and i have 15 missed calls from Tiana..I hissed and threw my phone on the be-d slumping on it with a thud,mum hasn’t called since the very day I told her I didn’t have a “heart to heart” talk with Abby
I have to admit it..I miss her..so damn much,I just wanna see her and hvg her and k!ssher and..jeez Romeo slow down on the daydreams
I wanted to stand up but I got st©pped by the ding sound of my phone
I took it and oh..its a WhatsApp message,from..from Abby
Its a whatsapp message from Abby!!!
Oh My God..calm down Romeo just re-ad
I cli-cked on the message and I re-ad her message…
📱📱📱📱
Um..hi Romeo,how are you doing?Great right?well if you ask me I’m not fine..what did I do?
Romeo is there’s one way or the other I’ve wronged you plea-se let’s talk about it..I don’t like being avoided especially by the person I cherish and means so much to me
I really wanna see you..I miss your smile and your crackheadness-if that’s a thing
I really wish we could talk..I feel as if I broke your heart or something..like I did something terrible to you,I wanna see you plea-se
I’ve been really miserable the past one week without you and..and..plea-se let’s just talk I’m begging
I miss you❤
📱📱📱📱
I smiled at the last [email protected] left s heart..not just any heart but a red heart
I also miss you Abby and I feel really guilty..I can’t believe I’ve hurt her this much
I took one last look at her number before j cli-cked on call
It ringed for sometime before she picked
📞”Abby”
📞”Ro..ro..ouch”
My heart races 20times fas-ter when I heard her pain filled voice..is something wrong with her,is she hurt?
📞””Abigail,what’s wrong what’s happening..are you okay”I asked hurriedly,eager to know what exactly is wrong
📞”mama..mama tummy hurts”I heard the little boy’s voice and I spranged up to my feet
📞”Your tummy hurts?..okay I’m coming right now,I’ll be there in a sec”I quic-kly picked up my bike keys and I rushed out of my room
📞”hurry”she said in a fragile whisper and I hanged up
I raced down the stairs and in a flash,I got on my back and sped off like my life depends on it
Hang on Abby,I’m coming

💕Romeo’s POV💕
If anyone should witness how I’m ri-ding at high speed,I’ll definitely be called a mad man,I’m ri-ding like a man rushing to meet his wife in the labor room..this better be worth my worry
I finally got to her place and rushed to her front door..I opened and entered the house
“Abby”I screamed her name and I heard little footsteps towards me
“Mama’s tummy”I heard the boy’s voice beside me and I rushed to him…
“Where is your mama”I asked and he held my hand leading me to her room-i guess
I got to her room and I saw Abby curled up like a baby on the clutching ti-ghtly to her tummy wincing in pain..she’s even crying
“Oh my God Abby”
I rushed to her and raised her head up cu-pping her cheeks
“What happened”I asked wiping her face with my hands
“Cra..cramps”she muffled out and I nodded
“Firstly,we have to clean you up..um..I have to str!p you off your clothes”I said and her closed eyes opened in shock..I almost laughed
I turned to the little boy who was crying and staring at his mum like this is the last time he’ll see her,he must love his mum so much
“Um..little guy,get me a blanket or towel”I said and he scurried to the wardrobe,brou-ght out a blanket and stretched it to me,I collected it and used it cover Abby,I reached inside and started undressing her-the blanket is to prevent me from seeing her..you know..ba-re b©dy
I un-bu-ttoned the shi-t she was wearing and I pu-ll-ed it off-i’m pretty sure my hands brushed her bo-ob s-I reached for the shorts and pu-ll-ed it off too,now the [email protected] gulped and looked at her,I wanted to reach for her p@n-ties but her hands st©pped me
“You’ll take it off yourself?”I asked and she nodded,I carried her up in bridal style with the blanket still covering her and I took her to the bathroom..I placed her in the bathtub and she used her hands to cover her bo-ob s as I re-moved the blanket
“You have to take off your p@n-ties?”I said and she nodded..I turned back to allow her take it off
“Done”her frail low voice said,she must be in a lot of pain,I turned back and her legs are curled up.
“Um…do you..do you have uh…sanitaries?”i shuttered and she shook her head negatively..it feels really weird doing this-like really weird
I sighed and filled the tub with warm water-she shivered as the water filled her n-ked b©dy,I added soap and she relaxed in it..her b©dy is covered now due to the foam
“You relax here while I go get you sanitaries okay”I said and she bowed her head and nodded shyly-she must be so embarras-sed,I smiled at her cuteness and she looked away
I pe-cked her on the forehead before I left the bathroom,I got back to the room and the little boy c@m£ running to me
“Is mama okay?”
“Yeah..she’s fine”I said and he breathed out
“I wanna go get your mama something so..don’t disturb her okay?”I said and he nodded..I ruffled his hair and he smiled
I took quic-k steps out the house and mounted on my bike..where exactly I’m I gonna find sanitaries,its pretty late and most sto-res would have been closed..I think chemists would still be opened,I don’t even know my way around here..God help me
After ri-ding for about 20mins I finally located a chemist..I parked my bike and ran inside the chemist..I’m drenched with rain-yeah,of all days,rain chose to fall today..and I fall sick if I’m in the rain for too long..its all for Abby Romeo..all for her
I got to the woman at the counter and she g@sped as soon as she saw me-well,who wouldn’t
“Oh my Gosh..Romeo Grande”she squealed and I gave her a small smile
“Hi”
“Oh my gosh…this is a dream come true,what can I get for you”she said trying her best to comport herself and she’s doing a really bad job comporting
“Um…do you have um..sanitaries”i asked awkwardly and she grinned
“For your girlfriend?”she said and I wanted to say no but I smiled at how that sounded
“Yes,my girlfriend”I said and she led me to a shelf
I didn’t even look I was just picking,I picked up to 10 because i didn’t know the type she’s using
I paid the woman and I hurried out of the chemist..I was almost mounting my bike when an old woman st©pped me
“Young man”she called and I sighed in frustration..
“Yes ma’am”
She di-pped her hand in her bag and pu-ll-ed out a small container and stretched it to me
“That’s ginger powder…mix it with honey and warm water,and she’ll be okay”she said and I smiled in appreciation-she must have known something was wrong due to how tensed up I am
“Thanks ma’am”I said with a bow and she smiled
I mounted on my bike and I rode off..I don’t have any money on me,I would have given her something..well,I hope I see her again someday
I got back and I rushed inside with a bag of various types of sanitaries
I got to the be-droom and I dropped the bag on the be-d,I went to the bathroom and I saw Abby trying to get out of the tub…she’s now wra-pped in a white towel,maybe her baby helped her
I went to her and carried her in bridal style to the be-droom and la-id her on the be-d.I made sure my b©dy isn’t tou-ching the be-d because I’m really drenched
I walked to the wardrobe and I took out a baggy shi-t which of I’m correct,would st©p right below her bu-tt and a short
She also nee-ds undies but where is she keeping them
“Um..Abby where are..
She didnt let me go finish before pointing to the right side of the wardrobe
I opened it and I li-cked myl-ips at the sight of various beautiful undies..I gulped at the thought of how she’ll look like in them..jeez I’m too dirty minded
I picked a p@n-tie and I closed the wardrobe
I placed them on the be-d and pu-ll-ed the bag closer..I poured all the sanitaries out and she g@sped
“Um..I didnt know the one you use so I uh…
I ru-bbe-d the back of my n£¢k nervously and she chuckled
She pointed to one and I gave it to her..
I t©uçhed her forehead to feel her temperature and she’s burning a little bit
“You’ll dress up yourself right?”I asked and she mouthed a yes
I pu-ll-ed off my shi-t and she looked away shyly..I sm-irked and walked to the bathroom to squee-ze the water away
I hanged it on the door and went back to the room
I nee-d a new trou-ser..this one is soa-ked
I glanced at Abby who was alre-ady some dressing up
I took out the ginger powder from my pocket and made for the kitchen
I poured a cu-p of water in the kettle and placed it on the burning g@s cooker
I took two teaspoons of the powder and poured it into a cu-p
I searched the shelf for honey and voila there it is,I took the jar of honey and placed it on the counter
“Take”I heard the boy’s voice and I turned..he was stretching a trou-ser to me-like a man’s trou-ser
No can do baby boy but I’m not wearing your daddy’s clothes
“Its your dad’s I’m not wearing it”I said as I poured the alre-ady warmed water in the cu-p
“Daddy?…I don’t have daddy,I only have mama”he said still stretching it to me and I raised my brow
“You don’t ?”
“Mmm-mmm”he replied
I went to him and carried him to seat on the counter
“What’s your name little guy”
“Mitchell”
What?..I thought that was the name of..wait a minute,the first time I c@m£ here,I heard her say”mitchell get away from the door”
Oh my Gosh Romeo you’re so..stupid..very stupid
Jealousy doesn’t fit you..so you’ve been hating on an innocent boy thinking he’s her husband..I even compared myself to him
I’m so stupid
“I like your hair”I said and he giggled
“I like that”he pointed to my tattoo and I smiled-i got the tattoo when I was eighteen
When I was still in my bad boy lifestyle,I still love it tho,and I don’t regret getting tatted…but I cover it most of the times
“You like it?”
“Yes..its pretty”
I laughed as I added two spoons of honey in the mixture
I mixed all.of it together and I got him down from the counter
We got to the room and Abby is still in a baby position,does it hurt that much?
I placed the tray on the stool beside the be-d and Mitch tapped me
“Change your cloth”he said and i smiled lightly collecting the trou-ser from him
I went to the bathroom and I put off my we-t bo-xers before wearing it
I got back to the room and I went to Abby..I sat on the be-d and carried her on my l@p with her head on my che-st
I blew air into the warm honey mixture and I started feeding her with a spoon
She whimpered as I fed her,she’s really burning up
I finished feeding her and I placed the cu-p back on the stool,I looked onto her face that was still buried in my che-st and I smiled,I feel like a billion dollars right now
I reached into her shi-t and placed my hands on her ba-re tummy and she shivered,I like how my t©uçh has effect on her
I ru-bbe-d her tummy soothingly and she relaxed,she wra-pped her hands round my torso and I grinned
I grinned wi-der when I remembered what Mitch told me-he doesn’t have a daddy
When she finally sle-pt off,I placed her on the be-d,covering her b©dy with the duvet
Mitch c@m£ beside her and pe-cked her on the cheek
“Good night mama”he said and I smiled,he really loves his mum
I sighed and stood up from the be-d
“Aarrchu”
I gave a loud sneeze and I face palmed myself,I knew I was definitely gonna fall sick
I gave another sneeze and I gro-an ed
I tucked mitch well un-der the duvet before going to the sitting room,I guess I’m gonna sleep on the couch
I gave another sneeze and I sniffed,I la-id on the couch covering myself with a blanket,I’m not even comfortable
Gosh I’m alre-ady shivering
💕Madison’s POV💕
There were a lot of things I wanted to say to Romeo but I couldn’t due to this stupid cramp,my cramps is something I would call a death s£ntence
Anytime it comes,I always feel like dying,its always a bad experience
Romeo was really a darling,I can’t believe he bought me almost 15 br@nds of pads just because he didn’t know the one I use
He even got drenched..I’m really gonna find a way to thank him
And also,I can’t believe Romeo has a tattoo..a really beautiful tattoo
Its a tattoo of a howling fox that covered the side of his n£¢k to the right side of his b©dy to his hands
He looked really h0t with it
The honey water he gave me really reduced the pain..he even ru-bbe-d my tummy..gosh I’m blu-shing
I opened my eyes and I looked around,where is Romeo?
I stood up on my feet and whoa,I’m only feeling little pains
I got out of ~the room and I heard a loud sneeze,I walked to the sitting room and I saw Romeo on the couch shivering..Shivering!!
I rushed to him and pu-ll-ed the blanket~ from his head,I felt his temperature and oh my God..he has fever
He must be feeling cold due to the rain
He opened his eyes weakly and I smiled at how long his eye lashes are
“Abby”he called and sat up
“Hey,you nee-d to rest..you’re burning up”I sat beside me and he smiled
“You’re okay now?”he asked and I nodded
“Thanks to you”
He sneezed again and I pu-ll-ed him up by his hands
“Come on”
I pu-ll-ed him to the room and I pu-ll-ed him down to the be-d to lye down
“You stay here,I’m coming”I said and I turned to go but he held my hand
“I’ll be back”I said and he nodded weakly,I hurried to the kitchen and took a bottle of cold water from fridge and poured it into a bowl,I took a towel and I returned to the room,I can’t believe he fell sick all because of me..the cold water would make his temperature steady
I placed the bowl of water on the stool and sat beside him on the be-d
I folded the the towel and di-pped it into the water,I squee-zed the water out and i wanted to place it on his forehead but he caught my hand
“Go to sleep,you’re not feeling well you know”he mumbled really and I smiled
I placed the towel on his head and he took my hands in his
“You’ve done more than enough Romeo,if you hadn’t come,I would probably still be on the ground crying my eyes out”I said as I took the towel from his head and di-pped it into the water again squee-zing it,I placed it back on his head
“And also,I’m sorry..for whatever I might have done that made you to avoid me,I don’t…you don’t know how I’ve been for the past one week,I’ve been really really sad..I missed you”
He kept staring at me without saying anything,I cleaned the tears that was almost falling and I wiped his forehead with the towel
He held my hands and sat up,pu-lling me close
“No,I’m sorry Abby,i misun-derstood something that made me avoid you..I’m really sorry..I just..”
I placed my f!nger on hisl-ips to keep him shut and I smiled
“All that matters now is that..you’re here..with me”I said and he smiled
His hands went to my w@!st and pu-ll-ed me close to himself
“And I hope it stays that way forever”
He placed hisl-ips on mine and he k!$$£d me pas-sionately,I didn’t waste time before I reciprocated,I don’t care about anything right now,I don’t even care about Tania..all that I care about now is Romeo
The k!sswas so pas-sionate..it was like we were expressing our emotions throu-gh it
My hands went round his n£¢k and he pu-ll-ed me to sit on his legs
I wra-pped my legs round his torso..with my hands buried in his think brown hair..he smiled against myl-ips and he de-epened the k!ssthe more
I think this is a dream,I’m k!ss!ngRomeo,if this is a dream,I don’t wanna wake up..never ever
