Grandma Smith's POVI had felt the need to go spend some time with my busy grand daughter. Even since the death of my son which happens to be her father, I have longed for her the more but it was if she was straying far from me. Her father wouldn't be happy in heaven if he saw me doing this to the only prized possession he had on Earth. I made up my mind to go visit her; but I knew I needed a tangible reason to be at my grand daughter's matrimonial home. I packed up my things and ordered to driver to drive me to the airport, I wanted it to be a surprise so I placed a call through to the assistant."Hi there, where's your boss?""Mrs. Smith, good morning, she has not reported to work today but she has confirmed that she will be in tomorrow. Is there any other way I can be of help to you ma?""Yes there is, I'll be landing at the Singapore airport tomorrow, help me prepare a ride to the mansion.

BECKY'S POVI had to get out of the hospital, and fast. I knew I had to go see Ann at the other side of the city and be home in time for the family dinner or Granny is going to throw another fest of rage tonight. I certainly wasn't ready for another bout of drama today. I thought fast, approached Tyler and intentionally spoke aloud."My husband, give me the car keys, let me go and get the ingredients for the sandwich at the superstore at the other side of town." I said, rubbing his shoulders and rubbing my body against him. He looked at me and I could see the look of surprise clearly written all over his forehead as he tried to interpret what I just said."What did you just call me?""I called you my husband, or aren't you?" He looked at Granny first, who already had a smile on her face then back to me. He reached into the pocket of the shirt he had been wearing and took the keys out. "I want to pick something in the car since I will have to call the driver to come pick us up with t

CHAPTER 16BECKY'S POVThe next day, I called the driver and instructed him to go drop Granny at the airport but Tyler insisted that he wanted to do it himself. He was going to miss his grandmother-in-law so much."Don't worry, let me go drop her at the airport, I have to make sure she's tucked in and there's no issue at the airport. I'll make sure her plane departs before I leave the airport. Don't worry, she's in safe hands.""Okay then baby, I entrust my most precious treasure into the hands of my most favorite person." I heard Granny giggling at the corner.I went upstairs and got prepared for work, it was going to be a big decision day at work and I knew I also had to prepare mentally for the consequences of those decisions. I gave my Granny a big hug and my husband a quick peck on the cheek.****I just got off the phone with Granny confirming that she had safely landed and had arrived home already. I flipped through the carefully docked calendar on my desk, I had so much work to

BECKY’S POVThis was surely the end of the world. I couldn’t even think straight any longer. The news broken to me was like the detonation of a million atomic bombs; I become disoriented, unsettled and broken. I didn’t even know what I was saying again.Tyler must have paid attention to me and he came to my rescue. I didn’t even care if I hated him any longer; I just followed his every command sheepishly as I watched him turn the car in an hundred and eighty degrees to the way to the airstrip. My surroundings suddenly became blurry and felt waves after waves of nausea sweeping through me.Tyler kept looking at me with a reassuring look telling me with his eyes that everything is gonna be okay. We got on the airplane and I fastened my seatbelt as the bird screamed, tearing through the Singapore open sky with a high speed.My mind was adrift cos I didn’t know when we landed and we were ushered into the helicopter that would take us to the hospital. On getting to the hospital, we met the
