A week later, Jayden was discharged from the hospital, Maya helped him sit upright on the bed.
“Should I get you something?”. She asked.
” No, come sit next to me, I want to cuddle you in my arms”. he said smiling.
“How would you cuddle me when your wound hasn’t healed yet?”.
” Don’t worry about that, I just want to feel you in my arms, I haven’t done that in weeks now, I miss cuddling you” he said.
“Are you sure it won’t affect your wound?”.
” Let me worry about that”. he said.
“Ok” ” She moved to join him on the bed and Jayden caressed her into his warmth and kissed her head.
“I have missed this”.
” Me too”.
In the kitchen, the girls were preparing dinner.
“Am so happy, Mr.williams is back to his feet”. Lucy said.
” Exactly! I could see the tension Ms.Maya went through because of him”.Amma said.
“Well, thank goodness, he is fully back”. Linda said and they laughed happily except Miranda who was lost in thought.
” How do I go about this? Mr.williams is around now, how do I go about my plans?”. She sighs at her thoughts and continues.”I must do what I am here for, I will” ” She smirks.
CLUBHOUSE
Mia came out from the clubhouse heading to get lunch for herself When suddenly Justin called her from behind, she turned to see him standing next to his car.
“Going somewhere?”. Justin asked.
” Yeah, what are you doing here?” she asked smiling.
“Well, I came by to take you out for lunch since is your lunch break”. he said.
” Wow, well you are right on time, I was going to that canteen to get my lunch”.
“We can go together”.
” Ok”. They left for the canteen and ordered food before returning to their table and started eating.
“Hmm, this tastes nice”. he said as he sipped from his water.
” Yeah, they have the best meal ever”.
“Sure they do”. he said.” So, I was mainly to ask you something”.
“Ok, what could that be?”.
” Is about Maya, is she hiding from me?”. he asked.
“How do you mean?” Mia asked confusedly.
“I don’t know, I just feel she doesn’t want to talk to me or something, since that get-together, I haven’t heard nor seen her again”.
” And you think she is avoiding you?”. she giggles.”She is not, Maya is just caught up with a lot of things, that’s all”. she said.
“Does she still live with her aunt?”.
” Yeah, but not for now”.
“Where is she? I would love to see her again and ask her out”. he said and Mia stared surprisedly at him.
” You want to ask her out? Do you like Maya?”. she asked and Justin sighed.”You do?”.
“I think so, I know I was stupid back then in school not to ask her out, but right now, I hope I am not too late for that”. he said.
Mia went speechless.

Jayden’s Bedroom
” Get those press out my house in the next two seconds, “Jayden said on the phone and then hung up to see the worry on Maya’s face.”Why are you worried?”.
“Am not, am just surprised how they find out”. Maya said.
” Why are you surprised? You don’t need to worry about any of these, let me handle it”. he said.
“I don’t want anything that will tarnish your image”. she said.
” How do you mean tarnish my image”.
“Nobody knows about me and how I ended up with you, if the press happens to find out how I ended up in your house, won’t that jeopardize your business?”. she asked and Jayden laughed.
” Are you kidding me? do I look like I care, people can say whatever they want to say, I don’t care, Destiny has a way of bringing people together, so how tou are living with me, is not anyone’s concern, so don’t worry about it”. he smiled. “come here, come sit beside me”. he said and Maya moved to join him on the bed and she was checking on the comments of the people, a lot were encouraging and somewhere not.”You see, a lot of people are happy that I am seeing someone”.
“Yeah, but some are not”. she said.
” Don’t put too much attention on the negative comments but the positive ones, look, someone just said we look good together, and look, another one is wishing to be in your shoes, these are the comments you need to focus on, not the negative ones”. he said and Maya sigh.

•••JAYDEN’S MANSION•••
The Next day, Jayden and Maya were having their breakfast in the bedroom, when a knock came in.
“Who is there?”.Jayden asked.
” Is me, Miranda”. she said.
“Come in”. he ordered and She entered with her head bowed to the ground.” What is it?”.
“Am here to call Ms.Maya, there is someone in the living room who wants to see her”. she said and Maya stared confusedly at her.
” Who? Mia?”. she asked.
“No ma, I don’t know him, I forgot to ask him his name”. she said.
Maya and jayden look at each other.
” Ok, I will go see who it is”..she stood up from the bed and left with Miranda to the living room, She stared confusedly at the young man seated comfortably on the couch, he looked good with amazing stature, and he turned to meet eyes with Maya.
“Maya?”. he called happily and rushed to hug her.
Maya was caught off guard and she pushed him off quickly. The girls came out of the kitchen and Miranda went to them.
” Who are you?” she asked confusedly.
“How do you mean? Don’t you remember me?”. he asked smiling lovingly at her.
” Am I supposed to? Just tell me who you are”.
“Why are you pretending you don’t know me? Are you denying me right now because you are living in another man’s house?”. he said.
” You are beginning to confuse me, please, I think you are mistaking me for someone else”. She said and turned to leave, The young man grabbed her by hand and pulled her into his arms, The girls were surprised by his action and Maya was struggling to pull away from his arms.” Let go of me”. she yelled.
“Stop pretending you don’t know me, Maya Charles, after everything we have been through, is this how you pay me back”. he said.
” Get your filthy hands off her!”.Jayden voice out from the stairs, his voice was like a roaring Lion, the young man pull away from her quickly seeing the dangerous look on Jayden’s face and the way he was walking towards them, he gulped anxiously as Jayden stood in between them staring hard at him.”Who the f**k are you and what are you doing in my house?”. he asked angrily.
“So, you are the Jayden Williams that stole my woman away from me”. he said boldly.
Maya and Jayden were confused and surprised.
” Your woman?”He asked confusedly.
“You heard me right”. he cleared his throat “Let me introduce myself properly to you, am Erik Smith, and this woman here is my fiancee, we have been dating for long before I left for the state, and we lost contact with each other, I just came back few days ago to look for her and I was told she and her aunt moved from their old place to a new place, I had to search round for them only to find out about the news between you two yesterday, and now I want my woman back “. he explained.
Maya was surprised.
” What are you talking about? I don’t know you”. Maya said.
“Stop denying me, Maya, please”. he said sounding serious.
” What proof do you have to think she is your woman”. Jayden asked.
“I have proof”. He brought out his phone and showed Jayden the pictures of him and Maya together.
Maya was confused on how her pictures were on the strange guy’s phone, She had never been with any man in her entire life apart from Jayden, and she wondered where this one came from.
” Get out of my house, you have no woman here”. Jayden said and Erik scoffed.
“Am not leaving, you can’t stop me, I have heard a lot about you and I am not afraid of you, I am here to take back what belongs to me, Is either we do it on the easy way or we do it the hard way”. he said and Jayden grabbed his collar tight.
” Now listen to me, I won’t repeat myself again, get your sorry a*s out of my house”. he said angrily and pushed himself.
Erik smiles and adjusts his shirt.
“This isn’t over Mr.williams, you will hear from me soon”. He smirks and walks away.
Maya sighed tiredly, Jayden turned to her and caressed her face.
” Are you ok? Did he hurt you?”. he asked firmly and Maya rolled her head.” Let’s go back inside” ” He took her hand and they left for the room. The girls went back to the kitchen.
“What is really going on?”. Linda asked confusedly.
” That guy is up to nothing good”.Andrea said.
“Yes, I don’t know why he says Ms.Maya is his fiancee”. Lucy said.
” What if he is right”.Miranda said and they turned to her in surprise.
“Why will you say that?”. Linda asked.
” I just see the truth on what the guy is saying, what if Ms.Maya knows him, but pretends not to know him”. Miranda said.
“Will you be quiet, how can you say a thing like that? If you know what is good for you, just shut that thing you called a mouth, or else, Mr.williams will cut off your tongue and feed it to the dogs”. Linda warned.
“I was just saying, I didn’t mean it the other way”. she said.
“Ms.Maya is not like that, if she knew the young man, she would have said so”. Amma said.
