"Oh, Brielle you are here?""Yes, how are you today?" "Am good, why are you here so late?" She replied, stealing a glance at George. "Good evening Ma'am." "You must be her boss." "Then you be George Barlow." "Yes, it's nice meeting you.""I can't say the same for you." Nana retorted."I know." "Am glad you know that, and what are you doing here?""Nana." Brielle half yelled. "You don't have to be so straight about it. She rolled her eyes at Brielle and turned to face George. "I came with Brielle to come see you." George replied."Margret came today, she kept me company." Margaret is a little girl that lives in their neighborhood, she loves hanging out with Nana and Brielle. Especially when they go to the pack. "She has been asking about you.""You know she had a life, and a lot of things you deprived her from. Her friends and I." "Am sorry, it turned out that way. I didn't mean for it to turn out like that." George said with a sad expression. "Nana,it's time for us to go. I w

"I don't want to talk about him." Brielle replied and returned to her food.The dining became silent for a few minutes, she looked and saw how George was concentrating on his food. It's like her answer took them back to square one, of being in silent company of each other, she was starting to enjoy his company."You know, he was an abusive father." George raised his head at her voice. "You don't have to say it.""He didn't give a penny about me, it has always been grandma. She took over his responsibility""I really admire her resilience, even when he is her son." George butted in "Yes, she took me from him at three, she wasn't always around, but after she came back from one of her trips, and saw me begging my neighbours for food, she cried that day, and since then she didn't allow me to go back to him. She made it her responsibility to take care of me. You know, that man comes every day demanding I go back with him." Brielle laughed trying to hold in her tears. "It's his guts for m

"For what in particular." "I don't know, for everything." She said, rubbing her head."How can you apologize for everything? Are you also apologizing that I dropped you off, or that I sent my regards to your grandmother. I want to know what in particular." "George, please let's not do this.""Ok then." He laid down."George." When he didn't answer her, she called him two times. When there wasn't any reply coming from him. "If you want to snub me fine, go and do that." She took her pillow and left the room."Where do you think you are going to?""None of your business." "It's my business.""Why." She retorted with an angry expression."Because I chose for it to be my business." They stared at each other, before George broke the ice. "Like seriously, you are angry right now. I should be the angry one.""No, tell me shouldn't I be angry, you laid down there ignoring me." "That's because I was angry." "No problem then, maybe when you aren't angry we can talk again, for now I will li

"Ehhm, I will have to think about that." Brielle said, feigning thinking expression. "I need my answer now, you had all night and this morning to think." "You need to work, sir." She pecked him, and made a beeline for her office, when George drew her back. And claimed her lips, he nibbled on her lips, gaining access into her mouth. But their heated moments was cut short, with a knock at the door.Brielle jumped from his arm, and strengthened her clothes, when she was done. George answered the door."Come in." Mr. Rowan came into the door, Brielle greeted her on her way out."We are done with the evaluation, this is the hard copy, I also had it sent to your email.""That's nice, I really appreciate your team, await my response." Their discussion ended, and George continued with his day's activities, when his phone chimed alerting him of a text message. "Check the tabloid." From Michael. He was happy seeing the headlines, he was happy with the progress. All that is left of him now i

Working for him for few months now, she knew about his sexual life, it rotates around many women, this was another reason she decided to quench her feelings for him, afraid of getting hurt like him. She did know when darkness elopped her.She woke up the next morning, with the noise coming from the bathroom. It's Saturday, she will be hanging out with her grandmother and Margret. "Good morning." She greeted when she saw George come out of the bathroom. This made her mood sour, she stood up from the bed and went out. She met Yaya in the living room. They talked and then made breakfast together. George came down and joined for breakfast, the it turned out to be the most awkward breakfast. After their breakfast, Yaya and Brielle left. Margret opened the door for them. "Elleeee." She yelled on seeing her, jumping into her arm. She pecked her forehea

"So, this is how it is going to be, she can't even look at me again." He muttered to himself, he wore his top as he went to join them for dinner. He wanted to see her reaction during dinner in the presence of Yaya little did he know that she avoided being in the same space with him. "Thank God you're here, let's dig in." George looked around to see Brielle but she was not in sight. "Where is Brielle?" He asked."She has eaten.""Ok." They started eating, and at the end of their meal Yaya brought up a conversation."George, whatever is the problem, you guys should sought it out, both of you are blind to see how this is eating at you." "It's nothing serious, just a couple conflict." "And she is avoiding you, she had to lie about eating to avoid you."."You said she has eaten.""That's what she told me, and expects me to believe, but I didn't see anything showing that she ate." George's expression darkened at that. He dropped his fork, and stared at his almost empty plate. Yaya stood

"Who?""Everybody I passed by." "Noooo, do you know them?""What do you want to do if I know them?""I want to know if it's those I can trust to keep their mouth shut, news can travel fast." She said with puppy eyes at George."Forget about them, they won't say anything.""They will." The remaining drive Brielle kept on bickering about those that him carrying her and what they would say. George was so happy that they were able to push what happened behind, he knew somebody else who would be happy, Yaya. "Forget about them, if they don't talk now they will talk later." He said with a playful smirk. They came down from the car, as they arrived."They might say something bad or different." "You care too much about what people will say, what the worst they can say." He asked as they got to the door, looking down at her."That I'm sleeping with my boss." Brielle blurted, she covered her mouth immediately."Aren't you sleeping with me?" He asked with a crooked smile. "I'm not." She sai

He asked when Michael didn't say anything."The deal with Mr. Brown has been finalized, you will be hitting the club, for some relaxation.""No." George blurted immediately."Chill, you don't need to sound so pissed.""Have some work to do, talk to you later." He cut Michael off the line. He rarely gets pissed on anything Michael does.The day progressed fastly, George checked his wrist watch, as massaged his temple.
