The sight I saw got me shocked, I couldn’t believe what was happening right in front of me. There was never a time when I imagined that something like that could happen between the two of them.I had thought that they were only business partners and nothing else attached.“What if the madam see something like this? I just can’t stop myself from wondering who exactly the woman is and why she is so bold to do something disgusting in someone’s matrimonial home” I muttered to myself as I watched them from afar before my reporter’s instinct kicked in and I fished out my phone to get a shot.Immediately I got a shot, I sent it to Pamela and told her to keep it for me since I didn’t want it to remain on my phone should in case something happens.

PETAL’S POVI made sure to visit Bea at the hospital the following day to check up on her and it happened to be the day she would be getting discharged. Her cast was already removed by the time I got there and it was hard to tell that she had an accident on the leg if not for the limping.I was also surprised to find Amanda beside her, helping her pack her bags and other things because I knew they were never on good terms with each other.“Good day Miss Petals” she greeted me cheerfully and I was surprised to see her greeting me that way.For several months, she had been relating with me in a rude way or most time, ignoring me. My expression must have communicated my thought to her because immediately she came to my front and apologized for being rude all these while.“Did she eat something wrong? What’s gotten into her?” I was forced to ask, scanning her from head to toe“She’s fine. Nothing is wrong with her” Bea commented, accompanied with a stifled laugh“I am sorry for always tre

Thick thunderstorms grazed the black sky that fateful midnight as a young lady crawled to the corner of the room where she hid and covered her ears with her tiny hands. She was weeping profusely and any time the lightning struck the sky, she would almost go into an attack mode.“Someone please help me. I am so scared” she kept on crying but it didn’t seem like anyone would comeShe couldn’t contain her tears when another round of loud thunder hit the sky and she broke down completely this time around. Thick mucus ran down her nose as she almost convulsed where she was hiding, her hand holding tightly unto her ears.“Becca! Are you okay? Where are you?” a voice called out desperately and searched through the darkness but she was too scared to even hear or answer.The footstep was approaching the corner where she was as the person called out her name every time before a sudden light flashed on her face where she shriveled in the corner.“Oh sweet Lord! There you are! What are you doing

I even argued that he should go for his morning meeting before we go but he didn’t want to hear any excuse.“I will never postpone it no matter what you say. There is no going back Petals, we have to know what is going on as soon as possible” he insisted with a declarative toneI knew there was no going back no matter what seeing how he was proving stubborn with me.“But… it can wait. I don’t just want to be the reason why you would miss out on your meeting” I tried persuading him but he wouldn’t buy it.“Petals, I am a CEO. I can give a call and the meeting itself will be canceled with no one to question me. Don’t try to persuade me, I won’t take it from you baby girl” he declared and left for the car.He made sure to open the car’s door for me to sit down and closed it before igniting the car.

You might have forgotten but I didn't forget" he told me and I was amazed Never did I remember encountering him at work "I'm afraid I can't remember ever seeing or working with you" I said truthfully and he smiled "If you could remember the time that the company organized a raffle draw and the tents we were supposed to use suddenly developed issues.

I didn’t wake up again for the next five hours after the drugs wore off and by the time I woke up, Stanley was already by my side.As soon as he saw me gradually opening my eyes, he rushed over and bombarded me with series of questions.“Baby! Are you fine? Do you need anything? Does it hurt anywhere? How are you feeling now?” he slammed and my eyes finally opened fully at the sound of his voice.“Gosh! You talk too much. I think calling the doctor is the first thing you should do” I lectured him and he paused to realize that was the first thing he should have done truly.“Ah that’s true. Give me a second” he muttered and pushed the button beside my bed to call their attention.While waiting for them to show up, he took hold of my right hand and gently massaged it to calm me down and assured me that everything would be alright.The doctor came and conducted the necessary checkups before informing us that I was only suffering from a mild concussion due to the sudden shock I experience

Bea walked out to me and finally released her laughter when she was sure that the model was gone.“Will he be okay? He seems affected so much with the diffuser” she asked over my shoulder and I snortedI turned and responded “He should learn how to take what he give others too. How dare he spray my face with some rubbish he tagged an air freshener. All I did was clean the air for him as much as he wanted” Bea slowly raised her thumb up and gave me a wink before rushing to pack up the things we used for the shoot.I took a look around the room to see if there was anything else to fix and when I was assured that everything was in place, I marched towards the door before Bea called my attention.“Can I have two hours off? I have to see someone off and it is very important” she said trying to act cuteI needed no one to tell me that it was about the guy I saw with her at the hospital but I wanted to play dumb.“You want to see someone off?
