“Yes, you know he has a lot of business to handle, he will be back”. Lucy said.
” But he is rude for leaving without telling anyone”.Maya said.
“He will be back, just try to stop worrying about him, something must have come up that needed his attention”. Amma said and Maya stood up to leave.
” Ok, if this is how he wants it, no problem, even if he is right on what he did, but I will prove him wrong for that, he should have told me he will be out for days or even call me to say so “. she sighs angrily.” I don’t even know why I am worried about him”. she took the glass of milk from Andrea’s hand and drank from it before she left for her room, the girls stare after her and sigh.

” That’s because I am not hungry”.
“And now?”.
” I am fine, I can take care of myself and my baby ”. she said and her tummy growled.
“Open your mouth”. he orders as he takes a scoop of the noodle closer to her mouth.

“Can you leave my room now?”. she orders.
” No, I am not leaving”.
“Why?”.
” Because it’s my house and no one orders me around in my own house”. he said and Maya scoff.
“Ok, suit yourself”. she turns her face to the other side eating her fruit.
” I know you are angry because I didn’t tell you where I was going before leaving”.
“I don’t care, it’s your thing, whatever you do doesn’t concern me, after all, I will only be here for months, and then I can have my whole life back and focus more on my career “. she said and Jayden smiled.

“What you did was wrong, why will you leave a pregnant woman alone for days, do you know the tension it caused her?”. Ryan quarrels.
” Even if you don’t intend in marrying her which I know you will, when you finally realized your true feelings for her, She is human, and she has blood running through her veins, she can’t voice out to you that she needs your attention or care, but you as an educated businessman should have known that”. Theo said.
“I support Second bro on this, you should always make her happy, she is your responsibility now”. Ryan sigh and sip from his drink.” Did you try to apologize to her”.
