“Urgh… My head hurts” Brittany grumbles as she holds her head.
Javier chuckles and walk into the room, a glass of water and aspirin in his hands.
“That is what you get from drinking too much” he said.
Brittany glares at him but hiss when a slight pain struck her head.
“Here, baby, it’ll help with your hangover”
She takes it and downed it, she burp a little.
“Thanks!”
“You’re always welcome”
She turns and take a glance at the wall clock, a gasp leaves her mouth.
“I’m late! I’m late!”
“Late for what?”
“Work!”
Javier rolls his eyes.
“Take it easy, your director called and I told him you won’t be able to come to work today”
“Huh?”
“I told him you are sick”
“No, no, no, I can’t miss work!” She said panickly.
“What do you mean you can’t Miss work, what if you are heavily pre.gnant and ready to drop any minute?”
Brittany tensed when she heard the word “pre.gnant”, her breath stopped for a few seconds before she laughs nervously.
“Pre.gnant? That is gonna happen in the farthest, farthest future”
Javier frowns a little.
“Why not in the nearest future? Do you know I’ve been saving for our kids?”
Brittany stares at him with an horrific expression.
*What exactly is running through this guy’s head* she thought to herself.
“Or won’t you like it if we have mini Brittanys and mini Javiers running about in our house?”
“Our house?”
“Yeah, we can’t continue to live with my brother in the mansion. I have a house, we can move there and raise our kids there together” Javier said, his eyes twinkling with excitement.
“Whoa! Ok, let’s not talk about kids yet, that’s so not in my budget now”
Javier’s excitement fades away and he looks at her with a sad puppy eyes.
“You don’t want to have my kids?”
“Not that I don’t want to have your kids, but I can’t now. Right now my career is my priority, I’m tryna build career and it needs all the attention I can give it”
“But we did it without cd and I remember coming in you, what if you are already carrying my child?”
Brittany laughs and shakes her head.
“That’s not possible”
“What do you mean it’s not possible? Can’t you carry a child?”
“I took after pills the next morning,,, so I’m not pr.egnant and I won’t be anytime soon”
“So you mean my juice was wasted?”
Brittany simply winks at him.
“B-but,,,, ”
Brittany leans forward and ksses his lips softly.
“That’s enough, I should go get ready for work!”
Just then that heard a knock on the door, but before Javier could step in the living room, Brittany hears a familiar voice.
“Miss Cox, Miss Luca, open the door, it’s me your landlord!”
She quickly pulled Javier back in the room and shake her head.
“What?” He asked.
She puts her finger in between her lips and tells him to keep quiet.
“Lower your voice, we can’t let my landlord know that someone is inside” she whispered.
“Why?” He whispers back.
“Because we are owing four months rent”
“What?” He exclaims quietly. “Why aren’t you paying your rent?”
“Rora said, she haven’t gotten her part of the rent, though I have paid my part but I don’t think it’s enough”
Javier sighs and shakes his head.
“My brother’s wife is really something else, thank God we didn’t end up together.” he mutters under his breath. “I will go pay him”
“No! Rora won’t agree to it!”
“Hmm, don’t worry, I’ll talk to her. You just take your bath and I will see the landlord”
Brittany nods and head towards the bathroom, while Javier goes to settle the landlord.

“General, it’s time to question that spy, Eric” Brandon reports.
Ian look up with a tired groan, he closes the file he was going through and rests his head back on his chair.
“I can’t question him today, I already have enough on my plate as it is now!”
“So, when are we gonna question him, sir?”
“I don’t know, I will question him when I’m ready”
“Ok, sir!”
Ian yawn and stretch his body on the chair, his whole body feels so stiff.
“I need a massage, go get my Phoebe here!”
“Yes, sir!”
Brandon leaves immediately and within 6minutes he’s back.
“Sir, she isn’t in the room”
Ian open his eyes and quickly sit up, a frown appears on his face.
“Where did she go?”
“A guard told me she went to the infirmary, I guess she went to see Dan”
“Yeah, right. How is Dan doing?”
“He is recovering quite well, sir”
“That’s good, I’m yet to figure out how to rescue his family. How are the boys doing, have they been able to track where his family are kept?”
“They did but the location was changed before I could report it to you”
“Hmm, they should continue tracking them. When Dan is fully recovered he will make it easy for us”
“Yes, sir!”
At that moment the door open and Aurora comes in, she holds a tray of food in her hands.
Ian smiles when he sees her come in, but she pretends as if she didn’t see him at all.
She drop the tray on the table and turn to leave, but Ian quickly stand up and rush to hug her from behind.
“What are you doing?” She asked.
“Hugging my woman!” He said.
Brandon clears his throat and Ian glares at him.
“General, I’d better step out”
“Do you need to ask before you leave?” He growled at him.
Brandon doesn’t need to be told twice, he runs out as if Ian just set his pants on fire.
“General, let me go. I have other stuff to do” she said in a blank tone.
Though listening to her clearly, you’d know she is upset about something.
“What other stuff?” He asked her.
“And why should I tell you? Everyone has their own secret things to do!!”
Ian chuckles. Now he knows why his Phoebe is angry, he turns her to face him and rest his forehead against his.
“My Phoebe, I really did need doc Lee for an investigation but it’s not for your parents case”
Aurora scoffs.
“Tell me something I don’t know”
“I promised you that I will find your parents murderer and I will do just that, but you have to be patient with me”
She rolls her but didn’t say anything, she’s already made up her mind to do this on her own, so there’s no need saying anything else.
“Come, eat with me!” He invites her.
“I’m full”
“Are you sure? Or you just don’t wanna eat with your Dean?”
“I’m full”
Ian bend and swoops her in his arms, she instinctively wrap her legs around him.
“What are you doing?”
“Well, since you don’t wanna eat with me, I will just hold you in my arms while eating”
“Humph!”
Ian sits down and start eating in silence, as Aurora is busy playing games on her phone. He’d sometimes forcefully put some meat in her mouth and laugh whenever she tries but fails to bite her finger.
When he’s done eating, he called Brandon to bring the plates back to the kitchen.
“Thanks my Phoebe, that was one delicious lunch, I will get fat in no time if you continue feeding me like this”
She rolled her eyes.
“That wasn’t my cooking, Mom cooked and asked me to bring it over” she lied.
She unconsciously glance at her pinkie finger she had cut when dicing the onions.
Ian catches this action of hers and grin.
“Right, tell Mom I said thank you”
“Whatever!”
Ian stand up with Aurora still in his arms and walk towards the bed in his study.
“My Phoebe, I have stuff back, can you please give me a massage?”
“Nope, unless,,,,, ”
“Unless what?”
“You will have to pay for my service”
“Angel, have you forgotten so soon? You are banned from using money for two weeks,,,, that includes no payment of any sorts”
“B-but that’s not fair!”
“I can transfer the money into your account, when your two weeks is up, I will give your card back to you”
“But I need the cash right now!!”
“Sorry, Angel, you brought this upon yourself”
“Then I won’t massage you”
“Oh? I’m afraid you wouldn’t see your card ever again” ian put her down and laid on his stomach on the bed.
He close his eyes and yawn, waiting for Aurora to change her mind cause he knows his woman can’t do without money.
“Fine!! I will massage you!”
She sat on his back and begin to pound on it.
“What is my Phoebe doing?”
“Giving you a massage!!”

A week and three days later……..
|| Aurora/Phoebe ||
I bolt up from the bed and dash into the bathroom when I feel something rush up my throat. I bend my head in the toilet and poured out my guts, I feel Dean hold up my hair behind me.
“Sorry, Angel” he said as he rubs my back gently.
I stand up and head back to our room, I fall on the bed with a groan.
I look at the clock, it’s just 03:05am. And this is the fifth time I’m vomiting tonight.
“Are you not sure it’s because of something you ate?” Dean asked me.
I shake my head.
“I don’t think so, remember I didn’t eat before going to bed”
Yeah, it started since before I went to bed.
******
Flashback|•|•|
I look around the table, nothing looks appetizing to me. In fact the aroma kinda wanna make me puke.
Dean puts five slice of fried plantains on my plate.
“Eat, my Phoebe, these are your favorite” he said.
I nod with a smile.
” Thank you” I told him.
I eagerly poke a slice and take it to my mouth, I chew it and swallow it but it quickly comes back up. I got up and rushed into the nearest room, I locate the toilet and vomited it out.
Everyone looked at me worriedly when I returned to the dinning room, Dean is even more worried.
“Are you ok?” He asked when I sits down.
“Yeah”
“Are you sure?” I nod. “Do you want me to dish something else for you?”
“No, I will go get something fruits later”
He didn’t say anything else, but he keeps giving me worried glances. I take a peek around the table, Javier has gone back to eating his food, but Mrs Morgan is staring at me intensely which makes me kinda uncomfortable.
|•|•|•|
Later that evening,,
We are back in our room, I have a plate of sliced apples on my lap, while Dean is working on his laptop..
When I’m done with my apples, I drop the plate on the nightstand and laid on our bed.
“Ready for bed?” He asked me.
“Yeah”
He laughs briefly.
“I noticed you’ve been sleeping quite a lot lately, you’ll get fat soon” he said.
I rolled my eyes and turn away from him.
“Don’t disturb me, I really need this sleep, I’m so tired”
“So,,, does that mean, no good night kss for me?”
I turn back to him and sit up, I hold his face, pulled him closer to me and plant my lips on his. Right at that moment, I perceive his cologne, before I could move away I puked in his mouth.
I pulled away and gasp!!
“Dean, I-i,,I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to do that” I said.
Surprisingly, I found myself crying. Why am I being emotional? This is so unlike me?
He takes a wiper from the nightstand and wipes his mouth. He rushed to the bathroom and brushed his teeth, he comes back and carry my crying form to the bathroom.
He takes out my brush and hands it to me, I brush my teeth while still crying. Why can’t I stop crying for godsake?!.
“Angel, it’s ok”
“It’s not ok! I puked in your mouth!” I cry more.
“It’s fine, I like it when you puked in my mouth”
“You are lying! You are lying!”
When I’m done brushing, he carries me back to our bed and cradles me.
“I’m sorry,, so, sorry”
“Angel, it’s fine!”
He continues saying sweet nothings in my ear.
End of flashback|•|•|•|
And that’s how it has been since last night. Everytime I perceive his cologne, I’ll puke and he doesn’t want to stay away from me.
“I think I will have Lee do some test for you tomorrow”
I shake my head.
“I’m fine, maybe it’s because of your cologne”
He frowns.
“What? This is the cologne I’ve been using”
“Oh! But I’m fine, I’m sure it’ll stop by morning”
“You,,,, ”
“I’m fine, let’s sleep” he simply nods and we laid down, his arms wrapped around me.
I will talk to Britt about it in the morning, she’ll sure know what is wrong with me.

|| Ian/Dean ||
“General! General!”
My eyes snap open. Brandon’s face greets me, I quickly sit up and look around. It’s already morning and my Phoebe is no longer in bed with me.
“Where’s my Phoebe?”
“She went out, sir!”
“Did she say where she is going?”
“She said she is going over to Brittany’s”
I nod and got off the bed.
“Sir, you have a guest”
“A guest? So early in the morning?” I mean it’s just 9am.
“Yes, sir, and he came with his luggage!”
What? I frown.
“Who is he?”
“It’s best you come see for yourself”
I sigh and follow him out.
*******
*Why did you come here?!* I hear mom asked someone in shushed voice before I enter the living room.
“Mom? Who are you talking to?”
She turned to me with eyes wide open as if she’s caught doing something wrong, I narrowed my eyes.
I turn and fist my hands at what I saw. He stands there with an arrogant smirk on his lips, his luggage stood next to him.
“Aren’t you gonna say hi to your uncle?”
