☔Episode 41☔
Penny’s POV
It has been three days now since Bryce arrested Sasha.
To be honest, I was low key happy.
This is the first anyone has ever stood up for me.
I’ll be leaving for my ap@rtment today because I think I’m fit enough to do so now.
Chris alre-ady started school with Arley and a lot of b©dyguards going along with them.
It is crazy how much security he provides for two little children.
But it makes me happy, the fact that he think of protecting Chris like he protects his daughter makes me happy.
Bryce walk inside the room and dropped a plate of sushi before me.
“Wow sushi, thanks.” I mumbled and pu-ll-ed it to my front.
“Calm down huh, never knew you love sushi.” He said and I laughed.
He sat down beside me while we eat the sushi.
“Sushi is one of my favorite things.” I told him and picked a piece.
This past few days, I tried to stay myself.
I tried to be happy, to not think much about the tragedy that happened to me.
To be happy and have fun with my girls that c@m£ around to visit me earlier.
Ana and Maggie visited me yesterday, even though I tried not to think much about what happened I still couldn’t help myself.
No matter what I did to her, going to that extent of s£nding the ba$tard to defile me is the height.
From our teenage days Sasha and I were br@nded enemies.
She doesn’t like me,and to be honest I don’t like her either.
It was as simple as that.
“Why does your sister hate you so much?” Bryce asked all of a sudden.
I st©pped eating and sigh.
“She hated me from high school, more like we both dislike each other.” I said and test my back against the headboard.
“When we were in third grade she had a b©yfri£nd, after d@t!ngeach other till our s£nior year her b©yfri£ndstarted being extra friendly to me.
He sometime take me to see the movie, shop for me and all that.
Of course I was young and didn’t know what he was insinuating.
Few weeks later he broke up with Sasha.” I said and breathed in.
“I tried staying away from him, but like most popular boy in high school he keep coming.
Then one day, After school I was about to enter my car when the door was closed and my back pressed against the car.
“What…….what are you doing?” I had asked him.
“You gon’ give me a goodbye kss.” He said with a boyish grin.
I huffed and shook my head.
“You’re my sister’s ex b©yfri£nd, I can’t be ro-mantically involved with you. It will be backstabbing.” I replied him.
He brou-ght his mouth closer to mine and just ask wanted to push him away, my eyes c@m£ in contact with that of my sister.
She was so angry at me.
I pushed him away and ran after Sasha.
“Sasha, wait it isnot what it seems like. I don’t have anything to do with him.” I had told her.
“Who cares about what you’ve got to say Penelope, do you enjoy stealing my b©yfri£nd? Because from now onwards you won’t have a successful relationsh!pPenny mark my word.”
That was what she said to me.
And true to her words, she has been a spoiler in my relationsh!ps.
Not until Alex,he was with me for a long time. I thought that he was the one.
But he left me as well.
And my mother?
She preferred Sasha over me, I didn’t mean for her to love me alone but at least.
She should have loved us equally but no.
She preferred my half sister over me.” I said and chuckled dryly.
“What happened to Sasha’s mother?” Bryce asked.
“She died almost after birthing Sasha and so my dad married my mom.”
“That is a crazy reason to hate someone to the extent of going the extra miles she went.
She is toxic.” Bryce exclaimed and I nodded in agreement.
Sasha is toxic, that I must say.

Sasha first hearing will be tomorrow and to be honest, I wasn’t re-ady yet.
I was scared.
“Go and take a bath so that we can leave for your ap@rtment.” He said and I nodded.
He left the room why I re-moved my clothes then walk inside the bathroom.
After taking my bath, I went back inside the room wearing my robe.
I sat down on the chair and picked up my diary and then my pen.
It is childish I know,
But this diary is like a sister to me, it shows me the genuine love my sister never showed.
‘Dear diary, do you see? How good Bryce has been towards me?
He supported me during my ha-rd time and took care of me when i had no one.
He gave me a job, an ap@rtment, a car.
Everything including happiness.
I dont know what to do with him.
What do i do dear diary?’
I dropped my pen and placed the diary on the table before standing up.
I went inside the closet and took one of Bryce’s many big shi-ts and wore it.
I wore his black calvin klein as well.
I told him not to get me a new wear.
“You done?” Bryce voiced from inside the room.
“Yea, just a minute.” I shouted and fixed the shi-t.
I was wearing a milk colored shi-t un-der I was a black calvin Klein bo-xers.
“Wow! My shi-t look extraordinary on you.” He said and I smiled.
Though the shi-t was big but it enhance my b©dy in a way I couldn’t imagine.
The shi-t makes me bigger.
Like that Kim Kardashian figure.
“Whatever, let’s go.” I went inside the room and gr@bb£d my phone and my diary.
We entered the elevator and it was soon silent.
I felt very nervous being here alone with him.
Two days ago when he took me to visit his doctor i was actually very scared.
I was thinking maybe I have contacted a deadly disease, probably STD it HIV/AIDS or worst still to know if probably am pregn@nt.
But when I got to the hospital, after several tests he told us that I was safe.
I was very happy because even God knows that i won’t live to tell the story if i got pregnant.
Surprisingly his doctor who happened to be his best friend was the same man that visited my office sometime ago.
Mr David.
“A penny for your taught?” Bryce asked.
“I was just thinking about everything that had happened this padt week.” I replied him as he drove inside my driveway.
“Do you want to come inside, I’ll make coffee.” I told him.
“No, maybe later tomorrow. I’ve to go to the office.” He said and I blu-shed.
I really forgot that he is a business tycoon just because he was spending times with me.
Trying not to come off as clingy , I smiled at him and waved him off.
Instead of leaving like I initially thought, he walk up to me and brou-ght his mouth closer.
I involuntarily closed my eyes and soon his mouth c@m£ in contact with my forehead.
“Stay safe.” He whispered before walking away towards his car.
He got in and drove away.
What do i do with you Bryce?
I unlocked my door and walk in.
Damn, this place nee-d alot of cleaning.
“Welcome Miss.” I heard a voice behind me.
“What! You’re here, why?” I asked her.
Chris Nanny.
“I always come to work everyday, Mr King as-sured me that you’re safe. Im sorry Penny, you went throu-gh all those harshness.” She said and started crying.
“It’s okay,I’m good now.”
“I think Mr King like you a lot Penny, you should have heard how scared he was tbat day.
You are Lucky.”
Am I?
Episode 42☔
Bryce’s POV:
It has been two weeks after Sasha was prosecuted and found guilty by the law.
She went to jail with her p@rtner.
And Zen,she was yet to sign the divorce papers.
I guess she want me to f0rç£ her into signing it.
I walk out of my room wearing a black jeans and a white T-shi-t.
I was about to go and visit penny when my phone rang it was my mom.
“Happy Xmas mom.” I greeted her.
“ Bryce my son are you coming home tonight? what about Arley my grandchild is she alright?” mom has always been the protective type.
“Arley and I are fine and I won’t be coming home tonight, I’ll be spending it with someone who is very dear to me like my family, but she doesn’t have anyone to spend this night with so I’ll be there because I promise that I’ve always been there for her so I’m sorry Mom.
New year eve I will be there I promise.” I told her.
“Okay son take your time and I hope she doesn’t turn out to be like that stupid woman.” She said and I chuckled.
Mom never likes Zendaya she always thought that Zendaya is corny.
I don’t reallu know how to put this but they never had a goocooking.ionsh!pbefore they never had relationsh!pof mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has and I don’t blame mom because no mother will be happy when her daughter-in-law prefer her job to her family.
“Alright Mom bye I love you.” I told her then hang up.
“Arley dear, wow you look like a fairy princess love.” I told her and kssed her forehead.
She was wearing a blue bright dress, her hair don’t up in a ponytail while her bright eyes matched the dress.
“Thank you Daddy you look good too.” She said with a cheeky smile.
“Let’s go.” I gr@bb£d her hand and we make our way out of the house.
I help her inside the car and I got in as well.
The drive to Penny’s ap@rtment was 15 minutes when we get there she was cooking.
“ what are you cooking?” I asked her.
She smiled and led the way to the kitchen, Arley followed Chris to his room.
“Merry Christmas.” She said and I chuckled.
After we have got to the kitchen?
“Merry Christmas to you too.” I told her and kssed her cheek.
She flu-shed and turn around quic-kly.
“St©p doing that Bryce.” She said and I bite my l!ptrying to muffle my laugh.
“But you’re flu-shed, you like it. Admit it.” I taunted her.
She turned around and glared ha-rd at me.
“Okay so what can I help you with?” I asked, changing the subject. I didn’t want to do anything that will make her doubt me or keep her distance from me.
“Here, help mecut this tomatoes and then the carrot and brocolli.” She said and i nodded.
I picked a bowl and placed the carrots inside. I washed them and started cutting it.
I noticed that she was watching me so i st©pped.
“Whats wrong?” I asked her.
“You.hold a knife like a professional chef.” She said anfand i smiled.
It boost my ego that she said something like that.
She loved it.
“Well thank you mi amor but we have to finish cooking really quic-k because I’m hungry.” I told her and she rolled her eyes.
“Well thank you mi amor but we have to finish cooking really quic-k because I’m hungry.” She mimicked me.
“Did you just mimicked me?” I asked her, feigning annoyance.
“No sir, I didn’t sir.” I chuckled and shook my head.
What do I do with this woman?

“Onion plea-se.”
I hand over the onion to her.
“Tomatoes.”
“Carrots.”
“Broccoli.”
I was handing over everything to her while she cook.
“Bryce get me some water.” She said.
“Coming right up.” I told her and went to the sink to fetch some water.
After giving her the water I stood at a corner and watch her make the sauce.
Both of us made a wonderful team while cooking.
I was very happy and she was happy too.
Today again i did something I’ve never done before.
Cooking with a woman who isn’t my mother.
I’ve never cooked with Zen.
She doesn’t even have the time.
If she isn’t abroad, she’ll be on social media platforms posting her pictures all over the places.
“A penny for your thought?”
“1 billion dollar.” I said and she laughed.
“You want me to rob the bank?” She asked and I shook my head.
“I will lend you.” I told her.
“Oh thank you Mr billionaire but I dont nee-d it, have a cu-p of tea.” I collected the tea from her and muttered a thank you.
“Did you get me a Christmas gift?” She asked and I nodded.
“Yea,” I sip on my tea. “But I’ll only give it to you tonight.”
“That’s not fair, at least tell me what it is huh?” She said giving me that puppy eyes but I wasn’t falling for it.
“No, it is a surprise from me to you.” I told her.
“Hummph! Whatever.” She said and snort.
Sometimes she act child like but it is cute.
I love it, I love everything about her.
And the surprise that I’m gonna give her tonight, I hope she loves it because I’ve been planning for it for about two weeks now.
