Please do let me know if the spacing now is much better. Thank you Kitten’s
The nightfall came and the papers I signed were already notarized which is quite absurd for me but nothing is impossible for a man who has connections and money.“ Mommy, are we going to sleep here?” Alexander asks while I tuck him in on his new bed. “ Yes, Your Dad is a stubborn man and he’s not allowing us to go back to the apartment.” I honestly said. I usually talk to my son like I would to an adult person. Some people think it's a bit harsh but my son understands more things than other kids at his age. Pampering him like a baby will not help me at all since I raised him by myself and with the guidance of my Aunt Lilian.Speaking of her, Clyde sends people to pick her up but she refuses asking if they can come back tomorrow morning. I know she had her reason and since I could see her the next day made my mind at ease. A knock on the door was heard before Clyde came into our view wearing a simple white shirt and pajama.“Can I come in? or am I disturbing you guys?” He asks in his d
I wore the white puff-sleeve dress that Clyde brought to the dressing room. I used my beige flat sandals that matched the color of the tiny flowers printed on them. When I reached the door I saw Clyde was resting his back on the wall while his arms were crossed together. He seemed to be in deep thought but the clicking sound of the doorknob when I closed the door made him glance at me. A smile crept on the corner of his lips while his eyes were shamelessly scanning me from head to toe.“ I figured out that dress would look good on you Kitten.” He spoke while offering his hand. I took it in and we walked to the elevator.“ I wonder how you know exactly my size on clothes?” I ask even though I knew he had someone watching over us for these past six years.“ Isn't it obvious I'm obsessed with you Kitten so it's just normal for me to know these details about you and our son.” He was bluntly admitting his obsession and I couldn't help but blush. Gosh, does this man not know how to filter hi
When we walked around the place I noticed that there were only staff or employees working in every establishment or shop. Even if the restaurant is empty of people but it is still open. When I looked further, It was only then that I realized that it was only us inside this shopping mall.“ Clyde, Did you perhaps booked this mall for us only?” I confronted him.“ Yes. Why is something wrong with that?” He was confused which made me frustrated. To think that he splurged his money like this makes my head throb. To be able to visit this store I had to save up 3 months of my allowance so I could buy a pair of new clothes for my son. I can count only on one hand the times I came here to buy something. It was also only in the month that they had an event in this place and the price of the clothes was 50% off. Wait, when I think further, if he can book this whole place, can he also make the shop where I buy my son’s clothes go down with their price? My brows furrowed and he pulled me in tryin
After buying my son a few pairs of clothes Clyde phoned me. He said we would meet up at Mariposa restaurant for our lunch. Within fifteen minutes we reached the place and I saw Clyde sitting on a chair, his legs crossed while he smoked a cigarette. He looked so mysterious and lonely. I didn't even know he was a smoker. It was only now that I saw it. He looked like he was in deep thoughts but like he had a third eye or something he glanced in our direction and our eyes met. His hazel eyes looked so dark and gloomy but his facial reaction did not change when he swiftly dipped the cigarette in his hand on the ashtray. I saw his eyes averted to our son who was busy looking around. If I'm not mistaken I saw relief flood on his face knowing our son didn't see him. Someone from his bodyguard came and handed him a bottle of cologne. He sprayed a few before walking to meet us at the entrance of the restaurant.While we eat Clyde discusses our son moving to an elite school in St. Louis County.
When my son said they can only spend on the budget his mom set. It makes me feel inferior about myself. Was I really that incapable to help them enough that they have to set aside money for shopping and mostly it's for my son’s needs? Alexandria was already content to have one piece of blouse or trousers. They live so frugally that it makes me feel so ashamed of myself. I can only count in my hands the times I wore the same clothes thrice. I ate what I wanted. I even have a personal chef at home to cook the meal to my liking. I live a lavish life while my family, the one who should live without worrying about tomorrow. Has to save up money in case of an emergency. I start to question myself if I really did enough to make their life easy these past few years? I felt like a heavy object was placed on both of my shoulders that I couldn’t stand straight. My body slumped on the chair like I ran out of energy dwelling within myself. When I decided to pursue them after six years of MIA I tho
Chapter 15*The Wedding*Within a few days everything was arranged and today we are all ready to go to the Capitol of Jefferson. Zoe, my best friend was pick up in the airport by Clyde’s sole witness and lawyer Mr. Reid. When we reach the municipality of Jefferson we are guided to the venue where our wedding will be held.I wore a white satin square neck long sleeve bodycon dress. Nothing special about the dress, my Aunt braided my hair and made it in a bun. My face has little to none existence make-up because the makeup artist said my face has natural pinkish cheeks and my lips don't need coloring, a simple plumping lip gloss was applied on it. My white heels aren’t that high but I was hesitant at first to wear it when I remember it was one of those signature heels I touch when we visit the shopping mall. The damn brute although he didn't buy all the things my eyes lay on or my hand made contact with but almost half of the things I asked him to bring back to the stores was already ins
Clyde bent down and placed his hand on top of my legs. The warmth radiating from it is enough to start a spark between us and I’m so worried about my reaction towards him. It’s getting harder to suppress my feelings and the fact that we are married now might subconsciously ease my mind and let my guard down. “ Kitten, please look at me.” He sounds desperate without a hint of anger in his voice. Does it not matter to him that I beat him with flowers? Curious yet still angry I look up to meet his gaze. “ I hate you, You know that?” I said without blinking and I could see a flash of pain in his eyes but it was gone before I could thoroughly annalise it. “ I know, I deserved it. I’m sorry.” He looked calm and understanding while admitting his faults. “ Still I hate you Clyde.” He sighs and buried his face on my leg, hugging it. Then he went back to his original position and grabbed my right hand. “ I know it's unforgivable, and you can beat me again when our guests leave but for now
“Awe don't you want to sleep over Auntie?”Zoe asks, hugging the poor old lady from behind.“ I’m a bit too old for that and I can't sleep if it's not my bed Zoe.” She replied gently, patting my best friend's arm.“ Granny, I promised to visit you on the weekend after I start my school.” Alexander lifted his cute little pinky finger as a sign of his promise. Auntie Lilian was delighted to hear it and sealed their promise. “ I will bake your favorite carrot cake if you come over.” Alexander clap his hand while jumping in joy.“ Well, I didn't know that carrot cake is your favorite son. Don't hesitate to tell Dad what you like and we can ask the chef to make it.” Clyde butt in placing his arm casually on my shoulder. I wanted to shrug it off if not for my Auntie.“ It’s ok, Daddy, I like the way Aunty Granny makes my carrot cake, I think no one can make it like she does.” “ Silly Child, There’s nothing special about the carrot cake.” My Aunt patted my son's head.“ No, Granny yours is t
