“She nee-d rest….she was just having a shock or something like that…..he temperature is really not use to cold….so always make sure she’s warm…I’ll still go run a test on her…
.I don’t want to stay into conclusion again but I think she’s pregnant…..she’s not suppose to be pregnant because she just had a miscarriage…you have to watch her closely…” He said
“Leon…..am disappointed in you!” Grandma said and walk out of the room.
“She might feel pains in her stomach sometimes….a sever one but don’t be too worried it’s because of her previous miscarriage and she’ll be fine” he said and Leon nodded.
Leonel mother hold Grandma’s hand
“Mother how is she?” She asked looking worried
“Looks like you’re going to have another grandchild from……she’s pregnant!” She said and smiled
“So….Leonel….. Leonel is having a child….oh God….I have to go tell my husband…..” She ran inside.
Anthony and Nathaniel Leon’s two brothers and their wives and children were in the sitting room.Grandma break the news to them so that they can be careful around Gem orelse Leon will break someone’s jaw.
Leon felt Gem whining in bed….he stood up and saw her sweating. He took a clean rag and wipe her sweat.
“Eon…….emm…..Leon….” She cried in her sleep
“Am here…. kitten….am right here” he said
“Don’t go……………d.ddont .l.l. Leave me….. Eon” she cried and Leon felt his heart sour….
“Am never living you gem….never…..i don’t care about the past…..I don’t care who your parents is….I love you…so I won’t run away anymore…..am sorry….I almost put our baby in danger again…..Gem I promise you….we are going to have this baby…..trust me” he said.
Am awake…..am staring at Leon who was sleeping at the edge of the bed, holding my hands and resting his head.
He seems to know am awake. He opened his eyes.
“Thank God you’re awake” he said and hu-gged me. His morning voice was so tempting. I just kept staring at him like….what are you doing here……you left me and just show up…..
“Kitten…….I’ll tell the maid to prepare something for you to eat….” He stood up and went towards the door. Few minutes later he was back. He went into.the bathroom and prepare a bath himself. He carried me from the bed into the bathroom.
“I can bath myself…..” I said, I tried to shout but my voice failed me.
“Kitten let me do this…. please” he said and unbot-tonmy shirt. I tried to stop him but my hands were sour and weak. “Just be still” he said
“I said I don’t want to!”
“Kitten!!, I know you’re mad at me…fine you can unleash your anger on me later but now….now….
please….just ba-re with me” he said. He carefully took my clothes off and place me in the rose petals bathtub.
He started by washing my body. I close my eyes as tears run down my cheeks. Leon saw this and his heartache even more.
After the bath he carried me back to the room and dress me up.
“You said you were going to make a call….why did you come back!” I asked
“Because am a big coward…..am sorry….” He said
“You’re unbelievable!” I said
“I know….and i can’t tell you why I left”
“Why?, We promise no more secrets….why?, Are you keeping things from me now?” I asked
“No….am not….it’s just am not just ready yet to tell you….but I’ll tell you after our child is born” he said and my eyes were opened.
“What do.you mean by our child!?” I asked, he knelt in front of me and put his hands on my stomach. He ki-ssed it and said.
“You’re pregnant kitten” he said
“What……,am carrying our child…..oh my God……oh my…” I sheared tears of joy…..I hu-gged Leon without even knowing I was still angry with him.
“Am so sorry Gem…..can you forgive me?, I’ll do anything for.you to.forgive me” he said
I remember his mother…..his family….I wanted Leon to.be in good terms with them….I know he miss them but he refused to admit it.
“Forgive your family and come live with them again then I’ll forgive you….”
“Done!” He said and I frown “I said I’d do anything…if that is what you want then…I….I do it…but as for my father I can promise ypu anything yet” he said and I hu-gged him again.
“Grandma wants us to come eat….do you want your food served her or we should join them?” He asked
“Are you kidding…..let’s join them” i said
I felt nervous. I mean am in the same table with the President and the first lady, The President of j corp, the Chairman of j corp, the great Leonel Mavis family are all here…..wow.
We eat in silence, every one eat so elegantly so mannered but with them I fell so inferior….like I don’t belong her….my eyes met grandma and she smiled at me, I too return her smile to her. I felt Leon hands hold mine.
“You okay” he asked and I nodded.
Suddenly my abdomen had a sudden pain. I adjusted in my seat…. feeling uncomfortable. I Gr0-n a bit as the spoon fell off my hands
“Gem” Leon called
“Am fine….am fine….my stomach it just hurts a bit and stop…..it’s not painful anymore” I said and he nodded looking worried.
Leon was discussing with his brothers and I choose as-sistant mom in the kitchen with the maids.
“Mom….can I help you with anything?” I asked
“Oh dear…..no no it’s fine…..” She Said
“I’ll help you cut the vegetables” i said and grab the knife, I began to cut it before she disagree
If was fun being in the kitchen with Mom until
“Why are you in here?”………it was Leon again…

I prayed continually in my heart that Leon doesn’t cause any trouble.
“I….I wanted to help mom” i said and he walk down to me….he look at the vegetables am cutting and smile
“They are cute…..but you’re feeding humans not animals…..why are they so big?” He asked,
“…..” I was speechless.
“Let me show you how it’s done” he said and hu-gged me from behind. His big hands covered mine as he started moving his hands, I allowed him move my hands. I was like a little child who is shown how to write.
The scene was so beautiful as Leon mother smiled from behind, he watch how tender Leon was to his wife. She was so small in his arms.She could tell Leon really love her.
“Mom…..are you….uhm….can you bake some cookies for me later….I want Gem to taste your cookies….I missed them” Leon said and his mother smiled as a drop of tears falls from her eyes.
“Yes….yes I… I’ll do that son….thank you son….” She said. I smiled at Leon and ki-ssed his cheek.
“Thanks Leon!” I whispered as he hook his hands round my wai-st.
“For what?” He’s voice was so seducive
“For forgiving her” i said
“Every I do….is for you kitten…they all are for you….only if you promise to always stay by my side”
“Am not going anyway Leon…. unlike you who always leave me” i said and look away from him. He ki-ssed my head and hu-gged me. My head rest on his che-st.
“Am sorry….I’ll never leave without notice again” he said
“That’s what you always say” i tried not to cry though my eyes were red.
He broke the hu-g and cu-p my cheeks
“You made me come here alone….” I said and he frown.
“Am such a moron for doing that….am so stupid for leaving you….am a very big fool for doing that……” My tears finally drop and he wipe them away. “But am sorry and am telling you it will never happen again…..I love you….I love you so much”
“I love you much more” i said and he smiled and his li-ps met mine. He pulled me close and de-epen the ki-ss.
Mom watch the two lovers being R0m-ntic.
“Uh….ehmmm….” Someone cleared his throat. I broke the ki-ss because I know Leon won’t. How could I forget we were around people….I felt so embarras-sed. It was Leon’s father.
“Mood spoiler” Leon whispered and anger filled his face again as he look at his father. His father frown too.
“Leon….” I whispered and he looked at me.
“Son…..”
“Am not your son!!!” Leon yelled, so loud the hall echoed. I’ve seen Leon angry before but not to this extent….His muscles were even reacting to his anger….he was going to explode.
“Leon…..” I whispered
“Stay out of this Gem…..let’s go inside” he dragged my hands along.
We got to the room and he slam the door. He finally let go of my hands and walk towards the window. Trying to calm himself he was taking a de-ep breath.
“Gem….am….am sorry….I don’t usually…..”
“It’s okay….I un-derstand” i said
“You…. you’re not going to scold me for yelling at my father?” He looked surprised
“Why should I?, He deserved that….but…Leon….can you forgive him for me?” I asked. He walked closer to me and hu-gged me.
“Am so intoxicated to you…..you’re like a drug I can’t leave…..” He said pressing me more to himself. “I’ll try Leon…I’ll try…..but remember…it’s all for you…” I broke the hu-g and look de-ep in his eyes.
“Leon….is everything okay?, Is it about what you want to tell me?” I asked and I saw the fear in his eyes “I’ll wait till you’re ready to tell me…..don’t fell guilty…I’ll wait..am fine” I said and he smiled as his eyes goes red, it’s like he’s trying not to cry and he hu-gged me again.
Jolene’s father slam the files on the ground….He’s mission wasn’t successful.
“Those useless insurance…..how could they dare now to rele-ase the property file…..”
“Daddy calm down…there should be another way…..I have a plan…..but we have to lay low for now……”
“Yes honey….live this to us….all you have to do is play along……let your guards beat you up”
“What???, No way!!!” He yelled
“Daddy listen to mom…..we know gem has a heart of gold….she still cares about you…I know….you have to be beaten you so that you’ll be rushed to the hospital…..we will call gem and tell her you’re hurt….she’ll come running…..we have to be close to her again…daddy we nee-d her” Jolene said and her father grow silent
“Fine…..let…..let’s do it”
Leon was with his brothers, the truth be told…am really nervous to be close to them….they look so…..I don’t know?, Like…too high for me to reach….I’ll just hang around with Mom and Grandma.
“This is Leon when he was 2….oh…here is when he took his first step” mom show me Leon’s memory photo box.
“Aww….he’s so so cute…..” I said and we laughed, I saw a picture of him being nak-ed.
“He went to the beach that day and refuse to wear clothes…..I for-ced him but he run away nak-ed……” She said and we laughed again “back then he was 5….and….” My phone started ringing.
“Uhmm excuse me” i said and look at the callers Id….. “Jolene?” I said why was she calling me……..
“You can go answer the call…..we…will wait” grandma said and i nodded. Grandma frown, that name Jolene….. wasn’t that the name of the ha-rdin kid back then…..?, “Strange” she said
“Mom….I know what you’re thinking but it’s not…..there are millions of people called that name in this world”
“I hate hearing that name……I hate that family” she said.
I walked towards the guarden
“Hello?”
“Gemgem……what do we do!!!” Jolene was crying
“Stop the act Jolene….why are you calling me?” I asked rolling my eyes.
“Dad…..it’s dad and am not acting…dad was beaten up….I don’t…know….we…we are at the hospital……dad kept calling your name…..”
“What!!!, What….what hospital???” I asked
“…….. Hospital…. please be quick…..” She said
“Am…..am not in town…..but….I promise I’ll be there…..just wait” I ended the call crying. Even though he’s not my real father…he was the one who brou-ght me up…gave me shelter….. and the love I have for him as a father will be ha-rd to eliminate.
I ran back inside
“L….Leon…..w…where is Leon?” I painted as I asked Sasha
“He is upstairs with his brothers…madam Everything okay!!!”…..i didn’t answer her as I run upstairs crying.
I entered the room crying “Leon……” I called and he jumped off his chair and ran to me.
“Gem….what…what happened….why are you crying….are you hurt…..!” He was in great pains…
