"My best friend is in town and I was wondering....""Yeah, you can go see her," Damian agreed before she could complete her sentence."Really?" Maya’s face lit up."Yeah. The driver will drive you there and bring you home after you’re done," Damian said."Yay.....thank you so much," Maya squealed in excitement and rushed to hug him.Damian’s body froze immediately Maya wrapped her arms around his waist, pressing her soft body against his. Her warm body sent tingling sensations throughout his body and he couldn’t stop himself from sucking in her sweet scent. Just as he was about to hug her back, she pulled back."Sorry, I was just excited," Maya said bowing her head in embarrassment. Damian cleared his throat and loosened his tie a little. The effect of Maya’s hug had not left him completely."It’s fine, have fun with your friend." Damian said and left. Immediately she heard the click sound of the door, Maya squealed in pure joy and high-fived the air. She quickly rushed to the bathroo
Damian was sitting on the bench outside the ward when Maya got there. He had his face buried in his palms and his hair was messed up. He was tapping his right foot slightly on the tiles."What’s wrong with grandpa? He was fine earlier. What did the doctor say?" Maya said sitting next to him. She lifted her hand and started patting his back softly when she heard him sniff. Was he crying? Maya didn’t know how deep Damian affection for was old man was because he never showed it. Seeing this she felt so bad for him."I’m sure everything will be fine. Let’s...""Damian," a male voice had Damian’s head up."Doctor, how is my grandpa," Damian asked the doctor."Master Dan had a mild heart attack but he’s not in danger for now...""What do you mean for now?" Maya asked worry written all over her face. Damain stole and quick glance at her and he almost smiled. Nobody has ever cared for his grandfather this way, not even Amber." He has to stay away from stress and have enough rest. He had stop
Master Dan insisted he was discharged that evening, claiming he was fine and keeping him there was useless. Neither Maya, Damian nor the doctor could change his mind so he ended up going home that evening.Audrey was already in the living room they arrived. She immediately got up from her seat as soon as she saw the family enter."Master Dan, Mr. Makari," she said bowing slightly."Hello Audrey," Master Dan smiled. "I hope you are ready to do what I’ve asked of you," he said with a sudden serious expression."With pleasure Master Dan," Audrey smiles. "And here are the pictures you asked for," Audrey said swiping through her tablet to show the old man the pictures." Wow, blue theme. I love it," Master Dan smiles."Keep this up and I’ll double your money," Master Dan winked. Audrey proceeds to take Maya’s measurements and shows her different designs to chooses from."Just give me anything stunning," Maya smiled sweetly and Audrey nodded. After packing up, she bid gooodbye to the family
Damian stood in front of the altar with his head bowed. He didn’t know he would be this nervous on his wedding day. He didn’t even plan to get married. His plan was to stay single forever until Maya came in way."Here comes the bride, here comes the the bride,"the pianist played the tune softly making Damian lift his head.He almost choked on his breath when she saw the woman grandpa was bringing to him. Is that Maya? Why did she look like she just descended from Heaven? Audrey did a perfect job with her dress and Maya wore the dress perfectly. Every step she took was gracefully and her fair lucious right thigh peek through the lower part of the dress. Her hair has been adorned with beautiful blue orchids.The gentle sea waves and breeze complimented her gracefully nature.Since the theme of the wedding was blue, grandpa bought a small beach in Miami to match the theme and all."Good luck kiddo,"Grandpa smiles, patting Damian shoulder. Damian and Maya stood face to face with each other
"I understand if you want us to take things slow. I’m willing to move at your own pace. I just couldn’t keep my feelings to myself anymore," Damian smiled and stood up. "I’ll leave you to change, you can call me if you need anything," he said and started walking towards the door.Maya watched Damian close the door behind him and she let out a deep breath. Deep down she knew she knew she felt the same way towards him,yet she couldn’t bring herself to tell him how she felt but something deep inside her was stopping her. That was fear, the fear of being hurt. The fear of being rejected. She was Damian’s class. He was rich whiles she had nothing. What if he met something who matched his luxury? What if he met someone made for him?"Maya what’s wrong?" Maddie’s voice interrupted Maya’s thoughts."Everything is fine," Maya lied, forcing a smile."Don’t lie to me Maya, Damian just walked out and he looked...I don’t know disturbed or something," Maddie said worry filled her voice. "Please What
"She’s in a very critical condition right now. We’re running a few tests on her. When the results are in, we’ll get back to you," Dr. Simons told they people who were waiting anxiously outside. They all had worried look on their faces, especially Damian. He looked like he would go crazy any moment. When they arrived at the hospital, Damian wouldn’t allow anyone to come close to Maya. He insisted Simons would that and that was what happened."What happened to her? You were with her so what the hell happened?" Damian yelled at Maddie who had been crying all this while."Damian please relax.""Don’t fucking ask me to relax!" Damian yelled punching the wall behind him. " My wife is there battling for her life for some reason I don’t know and you fucking tell me to calm down," Damian yelled, tightening his grip around Maddie’s throat, ignoring the tears that were rolling down her eyes."Damian let her go, hurting her won’t change a thing. Maya need our prayers now," Master Dan said trying
THREE DAYS LATER"It’s been three days Grandpa, three days and she hasn’t even shown any sign of...""Relax son. Patience," Master Dan tried to calm his son who looked like he was going to burst out of frustration."Patience? I’ve been patient enough. Three days is enough to make anyone go crazy," Damian yelled."Being like this all the time won’t help the situation. We all care about Maya but that doesn’t mean we should all crazy. Let’s just keep praying,"Master Dan tried to speak sense into his grandson’s head."We’ve been praying for three days now but what..." Damian took in a deep breath to calm his burning nerves."Any sign of her?" Master Dan asked, diverting the topic."No." Damian simply stated. Master Dan sighed and shook his head. "But I’ll kill her if I ever set my eyes on her," Damian growled."My men are still out there searching for her," Damian added much calmly.Before Master Dan could speak, a nurse rushed out and run to them."She’s awake," the nurse told them and D
Later that evening Maya was discharged from the hospital after much persuasion from Damian. He carried Maya bridal style to the waiting car downstairs. In the car, Damian wouldn’t stop showering Maya with kisses. Master Dan who was in the front seat would occasionally look at the two love birds and shake his head. He was glad Damian had found someone who genuinely made him happy. He said a quick prayer, wishing the new couple the best in whatever they did. He prayed they would stick to the end no matter what they face.Given Damian’s reputation, a lot of evil palms will be set against the couple and it was Master Dan’s fervent prayer that the couple would fight all these and emerge victorious.The driver drove into the compound and as soon as he opened the door, Damian stepped out and carried Maya into his arms again."I’ll forget how to use my legs if you keep doing that," Maya pouted."And I’ll gladly carry you around," Damian smiled as he walked inside. He took Maya straight to the
