"Baby, it's way past your bedtime." Melissa stammered, hoping she could convince him to go to bed."Please, mama." He continued to stare at her with pleading eyes."Okay, what is it you want to talk about?" She asked, even though She might regret it.""Do I have a Daddy?"Melissa massaged her temple, wondering what she was going to say or how she was going to start the conversation."Do I have a sister?" Ryan asked when his mother said nothing to his first question."Wait! Where did you get all these thoughts from?""People call Rumi my sister because we look alike. I like Rumi and she likes me too.""Rumi's Daddy came to school today. I saw him. I look so much like him. Is he my Daddy?"Melissa sighed. "Why don't you go to bed, honey and we will discuss this tomorrow morning.""No mama. Please tell me. I want to know before I go to bed. Why did you keep Daddy away from me? He looked so sad and shocked when he saw me.""How do you know he is your dad? And why are you so worried about
Betty stared at her mom since Vicky was the eldest and believed Vicky should have a better answer because her mind was blank."Well, you and Ryan look so much alike but I wouldn't know. It's only your Dad and Melissa that can tell us what is going on."Rumi smiled. "Can Melissa be my mommy? Please? I like her so much." The little girl pouted.Vicky and Betty took a glance at each other."You will have to discuss that with your Daddy when he's back from his trip.""Okay, but when will he be back?" Rumi asked, looking worried."I can't say, my love. But soon. I will call him before I go to bed tonight and let him know that you miss him and you have something important to discuss with him.""Okay," Rumi mumbled not so cheerfully............Betty was able to bribe Rumi into going to bed after that awkward conversation. Elizabeth tucked her in, kissed her cheek, deemed the light, and quietly exited the room. She returned to the living room and met her mother by the bar area, sitting on t
Rhoda scoffed in disbelief. "Weren't you all taught some ethical manners before you all were employed here?""I don't know where your husband is, Please take your leave, I've got work to do!"Rhoda's eyes met with a glass of water on Melissa's table. She reached for it and splashed it against Melissa's face, drenching her body.Mel instantly rose to her feet. There were splashes of water on her laptop and even some of the documents that she was working on."What the hell?" Mel shrieked, wiping her face with her hand. She was also trying to hold back tears. Today was already a rough day for her even before Rhoda's presence."That's for being rude to me and thinking you could come from nowhere to take my husband away from me.""You should be ashamed for forcing yourself on a man that doesn't give a damn about you." Melissa had no idea where she got her confidence from but she was determined not to show her weakness before this psycho."Wow! You've got so much confidence for a mere slut.
"I don't know what you are talking about," Melissa said, then turned her attention back to the table. She wiped her laptop with the dry clothe, closed the device, and put it in her handbag."What are you doing?" Betty asked. "You can't avoid all situations by staying quiet or walking away.Melissa heaved a deep sigh, turning sideways to look at Betty. "It's been from one thing to the other. Yeah, Damien and I are not on good terms but I thought I could manage to work here regardless but it seems really impossible as each day goes by.""I come here every morning with a positive mind but something tries to kill my mood every time. If I don't get into a heated argument with Damien, then it's something else. Only God knows what Rhoda is going to do to me next when she corners me alone. Maybe it's time I quit!""I can't believe she would come in here to ask for Damien's whereabouts especially when I don't know where he is. I've been trying to reach him too since last night and Please don't
"What would you have done if you were in my shoes?" Melissa said to Emily as she cuddled closer against the pillow.Emily sighed, taking a seat on the bed, and facing her younger sister. "I think I am proud of you. For someone who is gentle, you stood up against Rhoda and I'm glad you did.""Well, if I were to be in your shoes, of course you know I'm not gentle so I would have done something nasty. Probably hit her in return for splashing water on me but again I understand you were in a work environment and I commend your patience.""It's probably good that you only talked back to her because that bitch is psycho. She might have gotten you arrested if you laid a finger on her.""I honestly didn't think about all of these then but it's something she can do. I'm glad I didn't lay a hand on her." Melissa mumbled."I'm sorry all of this is happening. I know it isn't your dream to marry a dude who had a wife in the past but are you going to let that prevent you from being with the man you
Melissa couldn’t stop smiling as she sat at the back of the taxi, looking outside the window, at nothing in particular, as she was engrossed with her beautiful thoughts. Today was Zion’s birthday and she was heading over to his place to surprise him. Mel had no idea why she felt so excited as though it was her birthday.After what felt like a forever journey, Melissa arrived at her destination. She paid the taxi man and got down with three gift bags. She made her way into Zion’s apartment building and took the elevator up to his floor.She brought out a key from her purse, unlocked the door, and helped herself in.Hardly had Mel taken five steps into Zion’s apartment when she heard noises. She stopped in her tracks, the smile on her face slowly fading away. It wasn’t just any noise but sounds of moans and grunts.Melissa unconsciously let go of all three gift bags, letting them fall to the floor. They were filled with gifts for her boyfriend. She had even ordered some food and cake wh
“Come on, don’t be a party pooper. I didn’t bring you all the way here to keep thinking about that asshole.” Emily said through the loud music, playing in the background.“Yeah, it’s easy for you to say. You never liked Zion so you’re probably laughing at me in your head.” Melissa said, taking sips of alcohol from her cup.Emily sighed, occupying the high stool close to where her younger sister was sitting.“Look babe, I understand how you feel. You just got betrayed by a guy you dated for years and your so-called best friend. Of course, no one in his or her right senses would feel happy about that. I know you feel like a fool right now and all sorts but I promise you that those two idiots deserve each other.”“I forced you to come to the club with us because there’s no point in being sad because of them. Those bitches aren't worth your tears or worry.”“That’s not the point. I just feel so stupid.”Emily smiled sadly. She stretched her hand towards Melissa’s revealed lap and gave it
It was a hassle migrating to the VIP area because of the crowd but Melissa eventually got there. She gave an excuse to the bouncer securing the area, lying that she was with the stranger man, and then went straight to him.Coming to a halt where he was, He was about to take more sips of alcohol when she took the cup from him and placed it on a nearby table.Before Damien could question her presence or actions, Melissa sat on his lap and slowly started straddling him.Damien wanted to push her away but he lost it the moment Melissa’s fat ass collided with his dick through his pants.A knowing smirk crept to her lips when she felt his bulge against her. That triggered her confidence, making her increase her pace in straddling him.Melissa eventually adjusted herself on his lap, to his side so that she could see his face on a much closer level. Her breath hitched. He had the most beautiful features that she had ever seen in a man, his hair was perfectly styled and his eyes were so beauti
