KAMARIA POV Never try to drown your pain with alcohol because come the next morning you will be in a world of pain and your problems will still be there waiting for you.Last night Bobby and Jonathan came over as promised.But instead of getting into signing the divorce papers we decided to drink. They wanted to cheer me up and in their words, actually this was from Bobby who has never been a fan of Damien. The arrogant prick can wait.Bobby Jonathan and I have been best friends since high school. Bobby and I met first, in the school hallway, actually we ran into each other, literally. That was sophomore year, it was Bobby's first day in school. His friendly smile had been what drew me to him. His teeth was so white against his dark skin. I gave him the direction to the principal's office and when we met again in the cafeteria that was the beginning of our friendship. Not for once did Bobby and I think of dating each other despite how handsome he was. There was never such spark betwee
KAMARIA POV Kamaria open the door is me," Bobby voice rang upstairs. I buzzed him in and then waited with my nerves rattling for him to get to my apartment so I can ask him whether being two weeks late is something to worry about. Bobby has tons of sisters, four of them and him being the only boy and the middle child, I am sure he will know. "Kamaria where are you?" He yelled from the living room. "In here!" He walked in and stopped short at the door. "Are you alright. You look pale?" His handsome face reflecting the worry in his voice. "I shook my head. Is two weeks enough for me to worry?" "What?!" Bobby frowned taking a seat on the bed and keeping the bag containing the soup he brought for me on my desk. "I am two weeks late." I am sure I didn't need further explanation than that. Every boy of dating age understands when a girl says I am two weeks late. "When did you last fuck Damien?" If it was anyone I would probably be embarrassed by the question but this Bobby, my bes
DAMIEN POVI let out an animalistic growl when the phone went unanswered from Kamaria's end, my fist clenching on itself as my anger roared out of control. How dare she not pick my call! Is she avoiding me, trying to get back at me for something?! Is that why she hasn't signed. Maybe the money I gave her isn't enough and she and that lawyer boss of hers are plotting ways to take more from me. My expression hardened into a stony mask of anger and disgust. If Kamaria decides to prove my mother right that she is a gold digger after my family money, then she is going to see the ugly side of me. One thing I hate most is giving my mother something to gloat about. I was about to redial the number again when the telephone on my desk rang startling me, making me jump slightly on my seat. My anger worsened at being made to jump like some damned scardy cat. "What!" I snarled, not caring who is on the other side. I heard a squeak on the other side like my tone had scared the person but I did
DAMIEN POVKamaria was doing her best to hold Lily's stare as proudly as she can without appearing weak to her. For years this was the woman who had the attention of her husband, who was the source of her unhappiness, but right now she was acting like she didn't care, and her detached, cold mask was back in place. I didn't think my girlfriend liked the proud look on my ex wife face because those green eyes narrowed in anger and she looked like she was going to say something scathing. I knew I needed to do something before a cat fight erupts in my office, not that I think Kamaria will stoop that low. My wife, sorry ex wife has a class that most wealthy women of the society can't afford. Before I could speak Kamaria beat me to it. She remove her attention from Lily like she wasn't wasting her emotions and time on and turned to look at me. The fire I glimpsed in beautiful brown eyes were all gone, in its place a look that bothered on hatred. I winced. I had wanted us to go our separat
KAMARIA POV I took a seat across from him and waited. I must confess, now is just the two of us I am suddenly nervous. What is he going to say? Will he accept it? Ask me to abort it? That I am never doing? "When did you find out?" The calmness in his voice is still freaking me out. I can't help feeling that there is something coming. Something I am not going to like. "A week ago," I replied softly, not looking at him. "Were you planning on telling me?" "No," I said honestly. I chanced a look at him to see a look of hurt flash briefly over his face before it schooled back to a cold flat look. "I think we should hold off on the divorce until you have given birth." "What! Why?" I stared at him narrowing my eyes suspiciously at him. "Because I am not letting you leave with my son." I rolled my internally at him automatically assuming it is a boy that I am carrying, and what the fuck does he mean he is not letting me leave with the child. "What are you saying?" A feeling of drea
DAMIEN POVFor the rest of the day I worked in a daze, barely seeing or hearing anything. All I could thinks about is that Kamaria is carrying my child. Inside me I have all these confusing emotions. Anxiety, joy, pride, but the most palpable of them all is fear. What do I know about raising a child. A kid at this moment in my life wasn't something I planned, but now that it is happening I can't help feeling happy about it. There is this feeling of pride that is going on inside me at the thought of being a father. With my head not in the game I decided to leave work early. As I was leaving my eyes fell on the divorce papers I sent Kamaria. I picked it up and flipped through it. True to her words she signed the papers but she stated clearly that she didn't want a cent from me. I scoffed at her pride. I returned the papers in my drawers without signing it and locked it. I wasn't letting her go until she has had my baby. No one is going to raise my baby and if Kamaria believes she h
DAMIEN POV"What!" She screamed into the phone nearly making me deaf. Being brutally honest was probably the wrong course of action but I can't take it back. "I can't believe you fell for her evil plan. How do you know the baby is yours, for all you know it could be for her dark skinned boyfriend," she sneered into the phone, her anger and what she thought of my decision very obvious in her tone. Bobby being the father is something I never considered, and thinking about that didn't sit well with me. The thought of the other man's hand all over Kamaria filled my inside with acid. My silence gave Lily the weapon to continue her torment as she fuelled her theories of the child not being mine with more ridiculous accusations of Kamaria not being faithful to me. I wasn't, so why should I expect her to be . Lily has made a valid point which means I need to contact our family doctor to know if paternity test can be done during pregnancy. "I have to go baby," before she could argue I e
KAMARIA POV On top the twelve story building that houses one of the five star restaurant, in their flower garden my company in a beautifully arranged dinner celebration having a good time. The night air was soft as the summer breeze blew around us. The sound of cutleries striking the ceramics plate added to the beat of the night, while the chatter and laughter from my colleagues lit up the open garden. The dinner celebration was for the top members of my company, but my boss Reign insisted that I come. Reign is the CEO of my company, an advertising and publishing company and my direct boss. I was content to dwell in my small world, allowing the fun everyone was having to swirl around me. I wasn't an overly socialising type and was a little awkward when it comes to small talk, so I just engaged the ones beside me who are willing to chat. At the head of the Reign struck his cutlery against his glass to draw everyone attention to him. Reign is a very gorgeous guy, boasting a powerf
