Waiting fully dressed on the bed for Edde to come pick me I dialed my mom's line but surprisingly she didn't answer so I texted her, just as I was about calling Melanie my phone rang showing her caller ID making me grin excitedly and swiped to the answer icon. "Hey Mel, I was about to call you and you coincidentally called, how are you doing and how are lectures going?" I asked in a wide smile as Mel took a deep breath. I'm sure that came with an eye roll. "Well, college is becoming boring and I think I'm gonna drop out soon" she replied in a sigh as my mouth fell open with her crazy response. "You're better than that Melanie! We are fucking in our final year in college! It's only a few months remaining for us to graduate, so why don't you complete school and get the certificate… I wonder where you got this drop out idea from" I said in a frown as she hissed. "What about Mrs Loxley? Have you started your online class?" She asked as I twitched my lips, it's crazy that I haven't even
Elizabeth stood by the mirror straightening her hair as she kept glaring scornfully at Edde's reflection on the mirror, he was so focused on his phone that he didn't even care to check out the outfit he made her wear or just look at her for once at least, she felt invisible "I'm sure he is texting or sexting his lover, he never paid attention to me this much" she thought and hissed loudly hoping Edde would hear her loud hiss and look up at her and at least inquire what bothered her but no, he seemed not to have heard her hiss. "Edde please dress up you're coming with me" Elizabeth said now turning to him with her hands placed firmly on her waist. "I can't come with you, antenatal is for women and not for couples" at least he agrees that we are a couple, Elizabeth thought, rolling her eyes heavenward. "I don't care who it is meant for, remember I told you that if you don't come with me Amma call your dad so. You're coming with me" she woofed as Edde sighed sitting up. "Elizabeth, pl
"What's going on?" Elizabeth gasped as she entered inside the room staring at Edde who lay on the bed sleeping peacefully and snoring loudly "I thought he said he was gonna go to work today? Is he that tired?" She mumbled as she kept her bag on the couch walking towards the bed he lay. She sneered at herself "I tiptoed all this way expecting to see something crazy but I rather saw him sleeping" she said shaking her head at her clumsiness as her eyes glued to his face, he looked so handsome and less dangerous sleeping. "You should sleep often" Elizabeth mumbled in between her breath as she stood from the bed stretching her body tiredly headed to the bathroom "Why didn't she come? Or was I just overthinking?… No! I wasn't, the text was clear! Edde is having an affair with Miss Anonymous and I will catch them" Elizabeth thought as she pulled off her dress and walked under the shower turning it on and letting the water wash her freely. Edde woke up letting out a loud yawn and rubbed his
The next day, Edde stood at the balcony staring down to the passing cars in traffic, he hated himself for saying harsh words to Elizabeth but at same time he felt like that was the right thing to do, he hated that she acted so possessive over him in front of Sadie and he also hated the words he said to her, there are better ways of solving issues like this! He turned back to the room as he had been waiting for Elizabeth to wake up hence it was already late in the morning, turning to the room he sighted Elizabeth through the transparent white curtains that separated the room from the balcony, she was already awake seated on the bed and yawning tiredly as she stretched her bones. He looked closely at her observing her mood as suddenly she hurried out of the bed like a bug stung her, she dashed into the convenience covering her mouth with her palms. "What was that for?" Edde mumbled as he made it to the convenience to see Elizabeth leaned over the toilet sink puking her lungs out "Eliz
"Hello De De" Sadie said in the sexiest tone that blended so well with the low suiting music playing, Edde slightly smiled at her as he welcomed her into his arms. Elizabeth watched the scene in disgust feeling disrespected "I refused to show my anger to this" her head screamed as she sipped her drink. "Hey Sadie, I am sure you saw us so why don't you get your cheap ass to greet us!" Rue said obviously pissed off as Sadie turned to her and rolled her eyes turning to Elizabeth who acted like she didn't see her. "Elizabeth you're here, hi!" Sadie said, letting out a fake smile which Elizabeth gave back. "And you're here too" Elizabeth simply said and continued sipping her drink as everyone stared at her in shock by the way she acted, Edde gazed closely at Elizabeth wondering why she wasn't feeling affected. "De De, I think we should hang out before the event starts" "Yes we should do that" Edde replied as he followed Sadie out, Rue and Wyatt watched their retreating backs as they
Waking up from a nap Elizabeth yawned loudly as she swung her leg down the bed tiredly she had slept out of tiredness from the all Star party that she woke up so late. Elizabeth grabbed her phone from the table as she checked the time and it was already 12pm she sighed and stood from the bed, she looked around the room but couldn't find Edde as she groaned loudly walking out of the room. "Edde!" She called out weakly as she matched down the stairs "Mr Loxley!" She shouted, almost coughing out her lungs as an elderly woman rushed out. "Good afternoon ma'am" she greeted nervously as Elizabeth stared at her confused on who she was. "Who are you?… Please?" She asked curiously as the woman smiled lightly. "I am the head maid and cook of this mansion?" The woman said bowing slightly as Elizabeth raised her brows confused. "Which means there are more maids and Cooks in this mansion? So where have you all been? Why doesn't the kitchen have utensils!?" Elizabeth yelled harshly, making the
Five months later, Elizabeth was Seven months gone in her pregnancy which made her belly big and uncomfortable for her, her appetite increased and she never let anyone cook or do anything for her if not Edde. It was a beautiful new day and luckily Edde was at home, Elizabeth knowing that Edde was at home because of Sadie felt so sad, she needed Edde's attention and she wasn't getting enough of it she felt like a burden to him with the way he gabbles each time he does things for her but once he is around Sadie he seemed happier. Elizebeth trailed down the stairs as she sighted Edde sitting on the couch and watching his favorite business show, she hissed loudly trying to get his attention but he was so engrossed in the show he saw that he didn't turn to her, she matched down angrily holding her belly out of the slight pain she felt as she sat on the couch facing Edde. Noticing her presence Edde turned as he shrugged his shoulders at the look on Elizabeth's face as he turned back to the
Throughout the night Elizabeth couldn't sleep, the loud moaning noises coming from the next room hurt Elizabeth so bad. Edde left her alone in a large room just to go make out with his goddamn Ex. Her cravings were becoming so bad and her back ached so badly, she needed him around but he was too far from her. Elizabeth picked her phone from the side table as she dialed Edde's line after a long ring ended without him picking up. Elizabeth could feel hot tears smudging her sight as she let it flow freely down her cheeks, she lazily held her waist as she helped herself up she dragged her feet to the door and pulled the door open just to dump into Ray who was about pressing the doorbell. "Oh h…hi, Betta how are you?" Ray stuttered letting out a slight smile as Elizabeth shut the door stepping out. "I am fine, thank you" She replied curious about his sudden kind attitude "Do you need my help?" "No no! I just came to see how you are doing hence Edde isn't with you" he said as Elizabeth
