SOPHIA Melissa got up from the couch and ran towards Damian, grinning with a broad smile plastered on her disgusting face. She opened her arms for a hug and Damian also did the same. Instead of Damian hugging her, he held her by her hands and drew her close into a deep kiss. They kissed passionately and Melissa was moaning in pleasure. I don't know if she was doing that to get me pained but for sure it tugged my heart with pain. All those while, I shut the newspaper and calmly kept it by my side as I seethed staring at them. Oh yeah, I never wanted them, none of them to think I am hurt seeing lovebirds make love sneerily in my presence. I couldn't help but reveal the unexpressed anger on my face as a groan escaped my lips as I frowned at them.They pulled away from the kiss, Damian's hand possessively encircled Melissa's Waist and his other hand around her upper back. Melissa hung her hands around Damian’s neck, their smiling faces locked together. They leaned in and pressed thei
DAMIAN For four days now, I have been seeing how lonely and emotional Sophia has been. The only person she talks to is Selena. Yes, she messed up. She did the worst scandal I ever thought she couldn't do. I never thought she could be like that but she did be. At times I do wonder if all that Authur told me about her was true. He told me she wasn't a pervert but now I am seeing a different Sophia. How bad can she get? Huh? I couldn't help but question myself and if someone could give me a reasonable answer to the question I would be the happiest man on earth. If not for the fact that Authur has been working with me for years and I trusted him so well I would have made him suffer for giving me false pieces of information about Sophia, or was Authur right about her? Or did she suddenly change? I don't know sh*t. I made up my mind to avoid her but… but whenever I set my eyes on her she does things to my heart. My blood does rush down there and my head always ends up being a mess at th
SOPHIA When I heard Melissa greet someone “Good morning Sir,” I was about to wonder who it was but I tossed the thought when Damian's scent caught my nostrils. The smiles I had on while I was talking excitedly with Selena vanished in the blink of an eye. My face became aloof and my heart pained like someone squeezed it into a piece of paper. What is he doing here? I couldn't help but question the hell out of myself. I tried not to put on a frowning face but I couldn't since my heart was heavy with emotions. My face has to follow my heart. I can't pretend to be unaffected after he believed all the lies and made me the bad egg. I just needed him to believe in me that I didn't do anything of those things flying around that I didI stared at him briefly and I could see emotions in his eyes. I am sure it is because of the last deal he lost that is becoming a big deal for him to pass over. I wished you would have lost a deal again and again and again for all I know is I don't care. The e
SOPHIA. I leaned at the wall near the window with my hands crossed over my chest, frowning at the beautiful view of the countryside. Different thoughts ran through my head and I was also tired of the kind of life I was living. I am so dumb for thinking in the first place I married the right one for myself.A lonely tear found its wall down my cheek which I had no idea it formed in my eye. I just felt it trailing down my cheek. My phone rang, I slowly turned to look at the phone beside the pillow and the sound of the ringing phone only deepened the frown on my already emotional face. “Who could be disturbing me?” I thought lowering my hands from my chest as I stood still like I had no life in me. The ringing came to a halt after some time so I decided to keep frowning at the view of the countryside through my window. At least, it's a good thing to look at.I snarled when the phone started ringing again, “The person won't quit” I uttered inwardly with my fists clenched by my sides
SOPHIA What could it be? I wondered as my phone chimed and I took it up with my eyes engrossed in the screen‘Meet me in the sitting room right now, Sophia.’ The text message sounds very urgent. I got up from the bed and I tied my gown around my body. “I'm here Dad,” my voice struck into his reverie as he sat on the couch with his shoulder slumped, he gave a sharp inhale as he stared at me with his eyes shadowed in frustration. What might be wrong with him? it should better be something measly, I thought. “Sophia I called for you because you will be getting married to Damian in a few days.” He huffed then cringed his head in shame as his foot kept tapping the floor slowly. My body stiffened as my eyes widened.Unbelievable! With a confused look, “What? Is that a joke? I don't understand why telling me this out of nowhere,” My voice quivered. He slowly looked at me with his head slightly raised, “You have to Sophie, consider me, else I will end up in jail.” I stood right in f
SOPHIA I stormed out of the house without looking back or caring to listen to my Dad as he called behind me. I just can't sit and watch my humble self get married to a man I haven't seen in my entire life. My greatest fear is he is a billionaire. Who knows if he is Christian Grey kind of Billionaire? God forbid. I have to put in my best. I love Jimmy. What will become of him if he knows that I am getting married to someone else? He won't take it likely on himself because Jimmy loves me too. I have to go talk to him. He has been supportive since I have been with him, He is caring and to crown it all he respects me a lot. I can't break a good man's heart. My heart won't let me be since my guilty conscience will deal the hell out of me.“Take me to Nw 7th Avenue Rd.” I got into the car so I will go talk to Jimmy. He is not that rich but he has a reasonable number of well-to-do friends. He can come up with something reasonable and also get some help from his friends since they are his f
SOPHIA I guess it's over between us. I have to face my dilemma. Life can be so frustrating, I can't believe all this is happening at the same time. Whatever it may be, let it be. I sat on the chair with my hand resting on the adorned table with beautiful flowers in the center as I looked at the glittering smooth surface. My fingers tapping on the surface, honestly my gaze is here but my mind isn't here, I kept pondering on all that happened just today, the more I tried not to think about it the more it kept drawing the picture of Jimmy in my head. I heaved a sigh, “Barman, come” as I motioned my hand at him with my eyes sank in frustration. “I am here, Madam.” He said with a mellifluous voice, as he bowed to me. My face was stern, “give me a bottle of Vodka”“Okay ma,” as he leaves. “Wait,” my voice struck him and he stopped in his tracks suddenly and walked back to me. “Make it 5 bottles,” I said slowly as I narrowed my eyes on him. “Don't be surprised, is this the first time
SOPHIA “I told you to get up and let me take you away from here but you claimed to be so stubborn. Keep quiet,” His voice firm as he struts towards the door. He walked with me over his shoulder to a black GLC 300 SUV and pulled the back door open. He dropped me recklessly, “Now don't be so vicious, you had only alcohol and you are behaving like this? what could have become of you if you took the drink that guy gave to you.” As he bent over me to buckle my seat belt, I pushed him away, “Leave me alone.” He glared at me, “Silly, Don't push me, and don't push your Savior.” He finally buckled my belt and closed the door. “Andy, Drive.” The driver nodded subserviently, “Yes Sir.” As he moved the car. He broke the calm atmosphere in the Car “Where is your house?” I'm not telling him I don't know him, what if he is a bad guy? And who knows if he has succeeded in kidnapping me? I made him look at me as I pulled him by the collar, I looked into his eyes, “I'm not telling you, Go to he
