THEME:I’M A FATHER! ???
♦IDAHO♦
ROBERT MANSION
DRAKE POV ????????
“Oh finally! You’ve decided to check on us!”
I was greeted by a plump old woman with gray hair, and very red cheeks. I spun towards Dora to hvg her. Dora runs things around my family home
“Dora! you’re looking younger and beautiful every day” I exclaimed
“You better believe it” she countered. We both laughed as the hvg ended
“How are you doing?”
“I’m fine Dora”
“Hmm pretty obvious. Mr Robert is waiting for you”
“Where is he?”
“The dinning room”
“Okay”
I motioned toward the dinning room. I heard laughter erupting from the section as I walked closer.
I st©pped to stare at the faces at dinner..it wasn’t just my parents. We had visitors.
Who are they?
I looked at both women.. They look pretty much alike. Mother and daughter.
Oh! Why didn’t he just tell me I was going to meet Serena Sander and her daughter when he called me at the office.
About my dad,he was super excited on phone and I wondered why? And now I know! It about this matchma-king plan.
But why do i feel like there was more to this whole thing. Trying to help me start a family when I can’t hold down a relationsh!p!
“Oh son!” My mom said. The old lady looked up at me while her daughter face was glued to the plate.
I hissed. I hate ladies like this..shy and Timid. Not my type!
“Drake meet Serena Sanders” mom introduced
“Nice to meet you ma’am” I settled in a chair and poured myself a glas-s of champagne.
“And here is her daughter I told you about Bay Sanders” my dad said
And I looked up at the lady and our gaze met.
I stared intensely at her..trying to recall where I’d seen her face.
“Bay?”I mumbled
Sound like I’ve heard that…have We met?
“Son isn’t she pretty?” My mom asked as she placed her hand on mine
“Have you met Bay before?”
My dad question stunned me out of thought
I studied Bay’s expression
And it struck me! Hell No!
It can’t Be!
She is the same lady I picked at Tessa Club some weeks back.
She is the same Bay is spent the night with weeks ago!
But my dad said she’s a good girl..why was she at the club?
“Drake -”
“Yes Dad” I replied
And I heard sighs from them
“That explains it” my dad added
Explain what?!
It doesn’t explain anything! I met her just once, we had fun right? Yeah I know but I didn’t even remember her up until now.
“Son..Bay explained things to us” my mom said with a smile
What did she tell them?
That we had S-x and i paid her the very next day and asked her to leave!
My dad cleared his throat
“I think at this point we don’t have to waste time”
“What…what do you mean dad?”
My parents exchanged glances.
Serena pats her daughter’s back.
“I’m so glad to inform you that you would be a father soon” he blurted out
“What?!” My jaw dropped
His words echoed in my head
“Be a father soon”
“Son Bay is pregnant” my mom said
I g@sped in shock
“What..impossible” I chuckled
Then I looked at the Sanders!
Bay is pregnant!
Hold up..if she is pregnant how does that make me the father of her baby?
We only had S-x 7weeks ago and we used protec-tion…so how did she get pregnant?
I found myself laughing out loud
These Ladies must be joking! Trying to pas-s me someone else’s child!
“My daughter is carrying your child” Serena said
“My Child?” I snorted
“Did your daughter not tell that she is a club girl…or a night worker..any man would have gotten her pregnant. Not me”
I said finally
“Pardon?” Serena mouth dropped slightly
“Ask her..we met at the club and spent the night at a h0tel and i paid for her service..what does that tell you?”
“Son..listen -”
“No mom!” I stood up
“That child she’s carrying is not mine”
“It your baby” My mom said said
“It was true that you picked her up from a club but..the most important fact is that My daughter has never been with any man til she met you that night” Serena said
Annoyance clear in her voice
She was only trying to stay calm
“Really?! And you want me to believe -”
I st©pped
Images of that night with Bay flooded my mind.
Bay never acted like she was a vir-gin..she wasn’t nervous and neither did she ask me to be careful…No we were both half drun!kthat night after finishing a bottle of champagne. It was ha-rd to tell her status!
But them I recalled the bloodstain I saw on the sheet when i wanted to get my wristwatch! I thought she saw her period over night!
Damn it! Why didn’t I realize that bay would have requested to take a shower before leaving that morning if it was her period!
“Let’s go Bay” she instructed her daughter
They both stood up
“Serena we can talk -”
“There’s nothing to talk about Vivian” she picked her purse.
Our gaze met and I noticed the tears that dropped down Bay’s face.
Feeling of guilt washed throu-gh me
Now what I’ve I done?!
They left. My mom followed them and pleaded with Serena to stay.
How did I manage to get myself in a situation like this?
“What do you have to say Drake?”
My dad asked
I ru-bbe-d my forehead continuously
“If your son is insisting that this child isn’t his..then let’s run a paternity test” i heard Serena say to my mom
I’m still finding it ha-rd to believe!
How come she’s pregnant when we’d used protec-tion?
Oh No! No! fv¢k!
The shower!
We had S-x in the shower before slee-ping that night!
I didn’t even realize that until now!
I clenched my fist!
What have I done?
Bay is pregnant! But am i re-ady to be father?!
My mom c@m£ back to the table. She sh0t me a glare
“It still not yours?” She asks
Anger evident in her looks
I tried to control my anger
I hate it when i make silly and stupid mistakes!
Now I’ll be a Father!
Dividing my attention into two..one for work and the other for my baby.
did i just say my Baby?
“You know we can run a test if you’re doubting” my dad said
“No nee-d for a test..the d@t£ you sle-pt with Bay corresponds with the result” my mom said
Then the child is mine!
“It not a bad idea to be a father” he said with croaked smile
Now don’t tell me I have to take Bay to the altar right away! Just because she carrying my baby!
“You don’t know how happy we were when Serena told us about the baby”
Mom said with another bright smile
“When did she tell you?”
“About two days ago.. Serena explained things to us”
“So why am I just finding out now?”
“We wanted to make it a surprise”
Surprise? I snorted
That I’m gonna be father!
I know they are both super excited about the baby thing cause it what they wanted!
Having a fella running the house.
“Even Bay only found out few days ago” my mom added
“You have to apologize to the Sanders” my dad grounded
“Yes son”
“I will talk to Bay tomorrow”
I mumbled
“Why not now?”
“I have a meeting with an investor”
“Okay..just make sure you apologize to them..then we can think of what to do next” dad said
I won’t be seeing that old Lady!
It me and Bay that nee-ds to talk!
And about what will happen?
Nothing is going to Happen!
I will just try to accept the fact that I will be father soon.
♦••♦••♦••♦
SANDERS MANSION
AUTHOR’S POV ????????
Out of frustration, Fury and Anger,Serena threw her purse on the couch aggressively.
Frederick had portrayed his son to be a Young and responsible man but Drake turned out to be the opposite of everything they said about him.
He is Rude,mean and spoilt! A foolish young man who is also irresponsible and she has never seen a man like him!
Drake doesn’t deserve her child!
Serena thought!
Bay deserves a better man!
And If only Drake wasn’t Fredrick’s son Serena would have sl@pped him in the face when he denied his child!
Denying! when everything proves that the baby was his!
“Mom -” Bay called in a low tone but she didn’t respond
Then she tried to t©uçh her mom but Serena st©pped her with a hand up
” I want to be alone” she mumbled
“I’m sorry”
Bay whispered as she blink back tears that threatens to spill.
Serena relaxed and looked up at Bay
“Go to your room and rest”
Bay nodded slowly and made her way to her room.
Bay blamed herself. She regretted her decisions that very moment. slee-ping with Drake had brou-ght her mom pains and now she was also caught in between her irrational steps.
Bay knew her mom felt humiliated when Drake said he picked her at a club.
Serena was heartbroken because she raised Bay well..to be a good woman. But now she was considered a who-re!
That’s the last thing a parents will every want to hear about her Child.
But Serena blamed herself for everything! For depriving Bay of some certain things all in the name of wanting to raise her well and be the Best among the women in Idaho. She felt like she had failed in her responsibility as a good mother. Was that because she wasn’t all that close to Bay?..close enough that they could talk about things a child ought to know.
“It was all my fault” she whispered
That mother to child bond wasn’t strong. No cordial relationsh!p..cause she was too busy with work at the firm before Bay took over.
“I’m sorry Rex..I failed you”
She sobbe-d silently
Minutes pas-sed and she calmed
Deciding that she won’t turn against Bay. If drake doesn’t want his child then it fine.
He wasn’t nee-ded in Bay’s life anyways. He was just a sp-erm donor.
To hell with Drake if he doesn’t want to accept his responsibility as a Father
They would both raise that Child! In the Best way!
She promised.
♦••♦••♦
NEXT DAY
SANDER ARCHITECTURAL FIRM ????
BAY POV ????????
I sat at my desk lost in thought. I couldn’t concentrate on work because I was thinking of what happened at Drake’s family home.
Drake doesn’t want his child!
It was obvious that Drake wasn’t re-ady to take on his responsibility! His flesh and blood!
My hand wondered to my belly.
There is a life growing in here..my baby..my joy.
I won’t take it out even if Drake fails to accept it. if
But people will wonder how I got a baby…
It none of their business!
And to hell with Drake if he doesn’t want his baby!
I heard a soft knock on the door.
“Yes come in” Lucy popped her had in first. She’s my Secretary
“Miss Bay someone is here to see you”
“Who?”
“He said that his name is Mr Drake Robert”
“Drake?” I I repeated
Why is he here?
Am I re-ady to face him?
My heartbeat accelerated as i gave Lucy a short nod.
Seconds cli-cked by and the door opened. Drake walked in.
“Good Morning..Bay” he greeted
I shouldn’t act like a little girl who doesn’t know what she wants. I have to woman up and talk straight with him.
“Good Morning” I replied boldly after taking in a handful of breathe to fill my lungs.
He stared at me
“Don’t I deserve a seat?”
You definitely don’t deserve one!
“plea-se seat” I pointed to a couch
He sat with his legs crossed
“So..how are you?” He asked
Sounding like he care
“I’m fine.. thanks”
“And the baby?”
Now the baby?!
My baby is fine! And we’ll be fine without him on our side!
Definitely!
“Fine” I replied sharply
Drake cleared his throat
“We nee-d to talk” he said
Talk about what? That I’m not carrying his child!
Hell No! I’m not re-ady to listen to his heartbreaking words!
He doesn’t want his child so be it!
I accept it!
“We have nothing to talk about”
Drake raised his brow
“I know you’re doubting my baby and that you don’t want it. And it fine by me. So we don’t have anything to talk about here. And forget about convincing me to take it out even if you know it yours..cause I won’t have an ab-ortion” I said sternly
He stared at me In shock
My heart beating ra-pidly.
Drake Adams apple bobbled up and down as he calmed
“Are you done?” He asked
“What?”
Oh well I’m not done talking! I have a lot to say!
“I want to -” he paused
And I found myself relaxing at his intense stare.
“I apologize for what happened last night ” he completed
Apologizing for humiliating my mom? For denying his child? And for calling me a who-re!
“I was shocked to see you at our place. And my parents didn’t tell me about the baby before i met you again”
Thinking about it now..that’s true.. Drake didn’t deny knowing me. He only claimed that I can’t be carrying his child.
“And about the baby I denied it because i didn’t know it was your first..and also considering the fact of how we met at club. I just thought that the baby could be for the other men you were seeing. But I was wrong and slow in realizing that the baby could be mine”
He st©pped
What made him change his mind?
He continued
“I saw the bloodstain on the be-d when I was about the h0tel”
I blocked the images of that night. I realized that the S-x In shower without protec-tion must have made me pregnant!
Actually Jessica helped me realized that!
He saw the stain? Well I never thought of any stain!
Then what about the note?.
“Why didn’t you call me?”
I heard myself say in low tone.
Damn it! I have the weakest will on earth! A second ago I was determined to get rid of Drake but now I was concerned about a note
“Note?” He muttered
Yeah..actually I dropped a note that morning!
I studied his expression. And it struck me that Drake didn’t see the note. So it better not to talk about it.
“never mind” I said
“I saw the note” Drake answered
He did?! and he didn’t call?!
“But..i left it at the h0tel”
Drake said sincerely
I nodded slowly
So he saw it and left it.
Jessica was right! That night meant nothing to him! I should have accepted it right since when She was telling me. That one night didn’t mean forever!
And I’ve been a fool to think that Drake felt something for me!
I should be hating him!
But,
Right now.. Seeing Drake made every fiber of my being stand up and take notice of him.
“Okay”
I really want to end this whole thing..of loving Drake!
I want to dedicate my life to raising my baby.
He sighed
“I apologize for that too. And i want to take on the responsibility of the child. It my baby so I don’t have any choice but to be the father” he completed with another sigh
What doesn’t that mean?!
Drake wants his child!
He want to be to be a father!
Happiness and hope washed throu-gh me.
“I will make out time from my busy schedules to always check up on you and the baby” he added
Does that mean I will be seeing Drake more often?
“Just call me if you nee-d anything” he stood up and Dropped his complimentary card on my desk.
He was almost leaving when he said
“Apologize to your mom on my behalf” I manage to nod since my voice failed me.
“Take Care” he said
And walked out
I let out a shaky breathe when the door cli-cked closed.
My f!ngersdrawing circles on My stomach.
A smile formed on myl-ips against my will..or maybe I just want to smile…and feel the happiness
Drake accepted his child!

EPISODE ••• THIRTY
THEME:THIS FEELING ????
°°°°°°° 10 DAYS LATER °°°°°°°
RIA POV ????
“Don’t forget to get the hand towels too!” Mrs Elise reminded loudly from the kitchen
“OH yes!” Cas-sidy exclaimed and then rushed to the large table to gr-ab the pack of towels.
Mrs Loretta sat on the couch arranging clothes into the Big Paper Bags.
10 Days pas-sed since they supplied the materials and we were able to finish 30 Dresses!
I must admit that it wasn’t an easy task but we did it anyways!
Mrs Elise,Mrs Loretta,Cas-sidy,Phoebe and Phoenix and I!
During those periods, Mrs Loretta and Cas-sidy spent most of their time at my place..they even sle-pt over at some point so that we could finish before the Amber Foundation d@t£.
The Five – Day Event starts tomorrow so we are taking the Dresses to The Foundation.
“All set” Mrs Loretta said with a sigh
The door bell rang
“That should be Mr Ian. I’ll get it” Cas-sidy said as she made her way to the door.
Yesterday on phone,Ian said that he would be the one to Drive me to Foundation.
“Good Morning Ma’am”
I heard someone say at the door. It was a familiar voice but not Ian’s. I turned and saw his driver Ben.
“Where is Mr Ian?” Cas-sidy asked him
“Mr Ian is quite busy at the office so he s£nt me to drive Miss Ria to the Foundation instead”
Wave of disappointment hit me.
Why didn’t he just call to inform me that he couldn’t make it before s£nding his driver.
I was alre-ady anticipating my company with Ian. I had been pinning for his company cause i haven’t seen him since the past two days.
Now offended that he couldn’t make it here when he had insisted that he would go with me.
Why am I so mad because he didn’t show up?
“plea-se take this to the car”
Loretta gave few of the bags to Ben. It was filled with clothes which we alre-ady packed and taped each kids name on it.
“Okay Ma’am” Ben replied
“Let me help with the rest” Cas-sidy went back to the couch to get the remaining bags to the car.
I shouldn’t be disappointed!
It occurred to me that of the two of us,I was behaving a whole lot more unbusinesslike than Ian.
He spend most of his time at work,calling me once or twice in a day to check up on me and coming over to say Hi just once or twice a week while I on otherhand was expecting more. p@rt of me wanted things to be different. Wanting more than just calling once a day and seeing him once in a while.
He’s keeping things Businesslike!
While I’m pinning for his company all day and offended that he didn’t show up today!
Which meant that I nee-ded to practice what I preached!
Strictly Business!
Beginning immediately, by putting a st©p to the latest disappointment that was running ramp@n-t in me. But getting rid of that disappointment was easier said than done. Because no matter how ha-rd i tried,I couldn’t seem to st©p wishing that he was here to drive Me to Amber Foundation.
“Drink this before leaving” Mrs Elise gave me a glas-s of apple jui-ce.
“Thank You” I said and gave It back to her after I drank little from it
“You might nee-d this too” Loretta handed me a bottle of water
“Everything is set” Cas-sidy announced with her hands folded at the door
“Let her go with you” Mrs Elise suggested
Our initial plan was that Ian and I will move the dresses to the Foundation while Mrs Elise and Cas-sidy will go and see Principal Brenda. I Alre-ady made the sample of uniform along the line of Amber Works. And I told her Mrs Elise will bring it today. Mrs Loretta will stay back at home and rest.
“Cas-sidy will you go to the Foundation?” Loretta asked
“Yes!yes!” She replied happily
“Okay then Elise and I will go to Owen” Loretta said
“Hmm Mrs Loretta you can stay back at home and rest”
“No..no I will go with Elise. And plea-se don’t turn me to an old Lady” we laughed
“Okay see you later” I said to them before leaving with Cas-sidy to the car.
I settled in the backseat while Cas-sidy sat beside Ben at the front space.
My phone binged.
A message from Ian.
“I’m sorry for not meeting up as planned. Something c@m£ up at the office so i had to stay back and attention to it. I’ll make it up to you whenever I’m less Busy! Take care”
“Ben what’s Mr Ian doing at work?” Cas-sidy asked
“He should be in the meeting with the Board of Directors now”
“Okay..but how do you know?”
“Mr Ian told me that himself before i left the office” Ben responded
“Okay”
What should I s£nd to him?
“Okay I un-derstand” I typed but I deleted it
It sounds too simple and Ian might think I’m mad at him.
“We’re on our way to the Foundation now. Thanks for s£nding Ben!” I s£nt it
Cas-sidy and Ben are now engrossed in a conversation.
My phone vibr@ted. Message from Ian
Is he typing in the Meeting?
“You’re welcome. s£nd me a text when you arrive at the Foundation”
“Okay” I replied
And waited for another response from him which never c@m£.
♦••♦••♦••♦••♦••♦
AMBER FOUNDATION
The SUV turned off the main road onto a pri-vate driveway. The driveway was lined on both sides by Red oak trees,the br@nches reaching out to each other to form an arc overhead that blocked most of the sun scorching rays. Amber Foundation was a three sto-rey mansion. When the building c@m£ into view,i could ha-rd ly believe my eyes. It was beautiful and well decorated for the event. I noticed the people in the Big Garden..they were all dressed in the same uniform setting up the Garden for the event.
Cas-sidy and i c@m£ out of the car.
I looked on and saw Mrs Perla. She smiled immediately when our gaze met.
Cas-sidy spun towards her to hvg her as if she were greeting her mother or her favourite aunt. Cas-sidy is actually free with anyone..and I love that spirit.
“Ria”
Mrs Perla c@m£ to me with a plump older woman with extremely gray hair, very red cheeks and nose.
“Mrs Russell meet Ria Robert. Ria this is mrs Russell. She runs things around here whenever Madam Charity isn’t around”
I held out my hands to her
“It’s nice to meet you Ma’am”
“Likewise” she replied
“The dresses are in the car”
“Oh! plea-se bring it in. The kids are anxious about their dresses” Mrs Russell said with a bright smile.
Cas-sidy went back to the car.
She and Ben brou-ght the bags to us.
“What about Ian? He told me that he would be here with you”
Mrs Perla said as we made our way to the Mansion.
“He is busy at work”
“Okay”
Then she helped with the door..allowing Ben and Cas-sidy to go in first then Mrs Russell before we both stepped in.
“Miss Ria!” The children screamed when we got to the waiting section.
“They’ve been really waiting to try their dresses” Mrs Perla said
“Hello Children” I greeted cheerfully
“Hi Miss Ria!” They chorused
I noticed Cas-sidy waving at the little girl she liked we c@m£ to measure them.

LINT CORP ????
IAN POV ????
I sat at my desk handling the hundreds of Mundane tasks that running my industry required. My thought on Ria.
I just ended the meeting with the Board of Director.
And I was so eager to finish up and see Ria.
My phone binged.
I looked down. It was Harvey Wesley! My old Friend. We attended the same high school and college. He owns the Best construction company in Chicago.
“Hello” l said
“Hey! Long time Buddy!” He said
“Yeah dude.. It been a while” we both laughed
“So how are you Man?”
“I’m cool Harvey. And it really nice to hear to you”
“I sincerely apologize for not calling to check up on you Man” Harvey said
“Likewise dude”
“What’s up with you?”
He added and I chuckled
“Harvey…just work” I responded
“Yeah I know it work great CEO”
“You’re no different Harvey”
“Of course! I’m different! I run just one company while you’re running an industry. That’s big! Great work! and I must say that you ba-rely have time to hang out or any free time..just work”
“Hey man.. come on!”
“But it the truth buddy”
“No”
“You seem too busy to me..too work oriented ever since you bec@m£ a CEO. I know how you used to be Ian”
“Yeah..i know Harvey. But you must also know that I’m not really all work and no pla-y”
“Really?”
“Yes Harvey”
“Hmm but I still can’t see where you have time for a wife and kids”
“Wife and kids? There you go against Harvey!” we laughed
“Did you call to remind me that I’m yet to get married”
“No!” He coaxed
And we laughed again
“Don’t mind me buddy”
Yeah! I don’t have to take his words seriously. That who Harvey is,he could be very funny..and also annoying with his words whenever he teases you. Harvey is a family man,father of two and married to one of the t©p most models in USA.
But he doesn’t have to remind me that I’m yet to start a family.
“Well I called to invite you to a p@rty”
“what p@rty?”
“Oh My God! Now he doesn’t remember”
“plea-se tell me Harvey”
“BMW as-sociation p@rty”
“Oh!”
“Now you know”
“Yes..yes..when is it?”
“In three weeks time. We had to set things that way because of Amber Foundation p@rty. 3weeks is enough to rest and prepare”
“Yes”
“So will you be there?”
“I don’t -”
“Make out time Ian.. Who knows you might find your heartthrob at the p@rty” we rolled into laughter
“Harvey I don’t nee-d to find an heartthrob at the p@rty”
I have someone…who my heart beats for.. Ria.
“So are you coming with someone this time around?”
I was silent
Thinking of Ria..will she agree to go with me to the p@rty if i ask her to be my d@t£?
“Are you there?”
“Yes Harvey”
“Look man if you aren’t sure..just tell me I can hook you up with someone before that day”
“No thanks Harvey”
I won’t be hooking up with any other Lady!
“Okay I will s£nd you the invitation then”
“Okay”
“And we could gr-ab a drink before that day too”
“I will give you a call Harvey”
“Okay”
“Bye” I hang
Harvey is the current Deputy of the as-sociation. The BMW is an as-sociation for Businessmen and women in Chicago. The p@rty is more or less for the all rich people in the state and beyond.
It a time when you get to meet new people and probably make new Business p@rtners. It a Day Event.. Mostly held on a Saturday evening..more like a Dinner p@rty with Media houses storming the whole Place.
I have to be there to repres£nt my industry.
But I don’t want Harvey hooking me up with any lady like last year.
He introduced this Lady to me at the p@rty. Her name was Valerisa and she is a Jeweler like my mom.
We flowed freely that night and somehow we ended up at a h0tel. For me it was nothing but a fling and a moment of enjoyment.
But two weeks after i met Valerisa,she started pestering me to introduce her to my family. Like she wanted something more than just spending good time together. She wanted commitment and I wasn’t re-ady for such which I alre-ady too her about it since the p@rty.
So in the end Valerisa got mad at me when she s-en-sed that we couldn’t work.
I’m not a saint! I’ve been with women in past..not to many but few.
But i never felt anything this strong with them like how i feel for Ria.
And I honestly don’t know why it like that.
Why I can’t get her out of my mind.
I looked forward to seeing her and sometimes I can’t seems to concentrate on work if I haven’t given her a call.
So many thing I wanna do with Ria.. but she only sees me as a business p@rtner.
Maybe it the Best thing to do.
Acting as a Business p@rtner as gotten me closer to Ria than I expected.
She is exceptional among all the women I’ve met.
My heart beat ra-pidly whenever I’m with her and I get this flutter in my belly anytime i watch her smile and laugh. I love that inexplicable thing about her that made me come alive..more than I’ve ever been with any woman.
I love Ria.
But does she feel the same way I do?
I doubt it!
That fear I saw months back was still evident in her eyes.
No love in her eyes – only Fear – fear of being t©uçhed by a Male.
And i hated it! I s-en-se it each time I lean close to Ria..too close and sometimes when I try to t©uçh her.
What could it be? What could have made her that way?
I’m aware that Ria is only trying to act calm and cool around me. She’s not settled yet. Like she isn’t convinced that i mean no harm to her.
I just want to make her happy.
I wanna be the reason behind her smile.
But that fear..about her past..
What does it entails?
Could it be that someone took advantage of her?
I shouldn’t try to find out if Ria doesn’t want me to know about it.
But Whatever it is..it must be really Bad.
I just wished that Ria could open up to me so we can conquer those fears together.
But I can’t do anything since she doesn’t want me to know or maybe I don’t deserve to know.
So I will just let it slide and not bother about her past. I’ll focus on Ria. If she’s having issue trusting me then I will work on myself. I only have to prove to her that I’m worth a chance.
Her past doesn’t matter to me!
I will make sure Ria trust men again!
And I’m sure as time goes on she will be free with me and open up to me about it!
A knock sounded on my door.
“Come in”
Ramsey popped his head in
“Sir the designers just called”
“What did they say?”
“They are moving in the furniture today”
“Okay”
“Do you nee-d anything Sir?”
“Yes Ramsey plea-se get the contact of the best Advertising agency in the state”
“Okay Sir” he closed the door
Ria’s place is almost set!
And as a matter of fact I’m pretty impressed with the designers works!
Tbc
