Written by ? Angel Louis ?

? Chapter 40 ?

“I’ve missed you so much. Heaven knows”

“Me too, so much” she breathe deeply, resting her head on his chest in a relaxing manner.

Then, she tilted her head away from him when she remembered the reason she called him aside. Her face dropped completely.

“What’s she doing here? You never told me she was coming?”

“Baby… ” He drawled, cupping her face with his palms as he gently smoothened it with his thumb.

“I didn’t know she was coming either. We are just working on some contract for the company and the management paired us to do it together… You see”

He explain. He could already see the slight frown on her face.

“How many more days will she have to stay?”

“Just tomorrow. Hope you’re cool with it..” he asked staring at her with those ocean blue eyes.

She pulled her face from his Palm and looked away.

“I was cool with it for the past days, why won’t I now? ”

From the sound on her voice, David was smart enough to notice that she wasn’t one bit okay with it.

“Hey, Ana…” He called.

“Yes?”

“Don’t you Trust me anymore?”

She exhaled sharply at his question and then nodded a yes

“I do.. but, it’s just that I don’t trust her. I don’t trust her around you. You know full well she has feelings for you..”

“And I feel nothing for her, that’s a big difference okay.

She has passed a night in your absence and nothing happened.. now you’re back, aren’t you convinced that still, nothing will happen?”

After a long pause, she nodded.

“Yes. I’m convinced. I trust you”

David smiled warmly at her and pulled her to a warm hug.

“How’s your mum? Any improvement on her health?”

He asked, kssing her hair.

“She needs to go to the hospital David. Please. Only the doctor can tell what she’s passing through.

The medications the pharmacist gave to us is doing little or no good. She’s needs real medical attention”

A tear slipped off her eye as she stated out everything to David. It hurts deeply to see one’s mom in such a dwindling condition.

“If that’s what you want, then I’ll take her to the hospital first thing tomorrow morning. ”

Ana’s face lit up in happiness.

” thank you so much David..I’ll be the happiest and grateful person if you do this”

“I’m glad”..

“But David… Won’t you drop the kids tomorrow in school?” She asked.

“Nope.. there’ll be no lesson tomorrow, their exams are rounding up today…

They’ll be at home tomorrow. So while I take your mom to the hospital, you’ll look after them”

“No problem” she smiled and hugged him more.

“I have to take the kids to school. They’re waiting already” he stated after breaking away from each other’s arms.

“Please take care of Junior, keep the house busy and the kitchen too. I’ll be back soon.

I love you” he pulled her face closer and kssed her before walking out.

He walked to the living room and met his kids who were already done with breakfast and sitted on the couch, patiently waiting for him.

“We were thinking you have forgotten about school since Ana is back” Janietta rolled out with a chicken smile.

“You took so long” Noel added.

“I wanna stay home with Nanny-Rosie” Kayla pouted.

“Urgh. There’s no time for this Kayla. You can stay with her tomorrow.

And I’m sorry guys for taking long.. I was actually trashing out some issue.

Let’s go now” he picked up his car key, took one final glance at Alicia whose face had gone swollen and purple with annoyance… Before walking out on her with his kids.

Not like he care. To him, He didn’t do anything to warrant such from her.

ALICIA

I just can’t believe that Lowlife is back. Why now? My plans for this stay is null with her around.

I need no soothsayer to tell me David has something for Rose, His Nanny. I’m not blind, neither am I stupid.

But one thing is sure, whatever feelings David is rearing for his low life idiot?, it won’t work. Not when I haven’t given up my feelings for him.

Not when he’s what I want for myself.

I won’t let David slip off my fingers cause he’s the reason I rejected Oscar for a No just cause ??

ROSIANA

Immediately David left with the kids, I came out of his room and met Alicia in the living room sitting on a couch.

Our eyes met and she threw me a dangerous glare. I just ignored.

I decided to go about with the day’s activity by ignoring her in all possible way.

I knew her eyes were fixed on me most of the time but I acted ignorant of it.

I prepared lunch that morning and tidied up the kitchen and used plates.

After that, it didn’t take long before Junior woke up and his cries filled the neighborhood.
