Chapter 56 (Getting on her nerves)
THE MORRIS MANSION*
Leo got back home and when he entered the house, he saw prudent eating his favorite cookies, while watching movies.
“How was your outing?” Prudent asked, immediately she laid her eyes on leo.
Leo said nothing and found his way to the couch, as he sat beside her. He took the bowl of cookies and started munching on them one by one.
“Hey, that’s mine?” Prudent hollered and Leo rolled his eyes dramatically.
“Why do you like trouble?Am finally here sitting with you and you’re whining. You should be grateful instead.” he said with a smile.
Prudent gasp when she saw how handsome he looked when he smiled. Though he smiles but tonight was different and she kinda liked it.
She didn’t know what came over him to the extent that he sat on the same couch with her and at the same time, eating her cookies too but she liked it and didn’t want it to end.
“Yeah you are right, I should be grateful,” she crossed her hands over his shoulder and he looked at her but suddenly focused back on the television.
“Mom and dad aren’t back yet?” Leo asked.
“No they are not, so how was yours outing?, I bet it was boring” she said with a smirk plastered on her lips.
“Nope, it was the coolest thing ever, I enjoyed every bit of it.” he said and she crossed her hands under her b.oobs.
“Tell me more, what made it fun?”
“I saved a little girl from abduction and handed the criminal over to the police.” he said and shivers ran through prudent’s spine.
She sat upright and crossed her two legs on the couch like a buddhist.
“Oh my God!, Is it that bad?” she asked and he nodded his head.
“So after rescuing the child, we were taken to the station for questioning. I answered all the questions and the real criminal came in and the mother of the child slapped her more than thrice, gosh it was a satisfying sight.” he explained.
“Wow, that’s a mother’s love. She seems like a strong person.” Prudent applause.
Leo reached for the television remote and changed the channel since he wasn’t enjoying the current show.
“Yeah, she’s such a strong lady and it turned out that I know her.” He said and prudent eyes lit up in excitement.
“Who is she?”
“Asha davenport.” he said with a shrug.
“Oh, I’m glad you saved the day.” Was all she could say. Deep down she wanted to ask more questions but kept it to herself.
“You miss her, don’t you?” he asked, after a few minutes of silence.
She moved close to him and laid her head on his shoulder, then closed her eyes briefly.
“Yeah but there is nothing I can do. I haven’t even laid my eyes on her child. It’s a female right?” she asked with her eyes still closed.
“Yeah and she looks very adorable and unique. But wait!What really happened that broke you guys?”
“Dad got into an accident and became crippled. Then things got hard for us and Asha, as a sixteen years old, worked in a bar in order to support my mom in putting food on our table.
Few days later mom learned that Asha was pregnant and told her to terminate the pregnancy but Asha refused. She told me she was scared and she couldn’t see herself killing an innocent child and I understood. Mom disowned Asha and stopped providing food for her, and she also got tired of my dad and left the house as she took me along with her.” Prudent explained and a tear dropped on her cheek, which Leo wiped with his thumb.
“It’s ok, everything will be fine.” He muttered even though he wasn’t so sure.

ASHA’S RESIDENCE*
“Where is the key?” Josh asked immediately if they stopped in front of Asha’s apartment.
Asha removed her handbag from her shoulder and passed it to him, while using the other one to support Tara from falling.
Josh checked inside and found the key. He brought it out and opened the door and Asha entered without another minute outside.
Immediately they got inside, Asha headed for Tara’s room and dropped her on the bed. She removed her shoes and uniform then wore the pajamas on her.
“She seems like a deep sleeper.” Josh chuckled.
“That’s how you are too, she took it from you.” Asha replied and covered her with the duvet, then they walked out of the room.
“Thanks for today by the way.” Asha said as they entered her room.
“It’s ok, you shouldn’t thank me, she’s also my daughter.”
“I am glad you know that.” Asha said reluctantly.
She was so angry and sad at the same time. Thinking about what happened today gave her the creeps.
“Are you ok?” Josh asked, immediately he noticed how moody she was.
She turned to him and nodded her head.
“I am fine, I just need to study. I have been absent from school for days.” She said with a deep sigh.
Josh knew she was still triggered at what had happened earlier and he needed to make her feel better.
He walked up to her and hugged her from behind then placed his neck on her shoulder, his hot breath teasing her skin and she gulped down nothing.
“Tara is fine now, there’s no need to be nervous” he whispered to her and she smiled.
“Thank you Josh,” she whispered back and he kssed her on the shoulder.
After staying for a few minutes in that position, she removed his grip from her waist and he frowned.
“I need to study.” she chuckled, while he pouted his lips like a five year old.
Asha moved over to her reading table and brought out three textbooks. Afterwards, she started studying each topic one by one.
Josh got fed up with what she was doing already, since the room was quiet and boring. He wanted to hear her voice badly, he wanted them to do something fun.
“You have been reading those textbooks for over ten minutes now, I can’t believe you are reading while I am here.” he mumbled.
She turned her chair around and raised her brow at him.
“So what do you expect me to do when you are here?” she asked.
“We should do something fun, instead of reading.”
Asha closed her books and turned to him as a thought crossed her mind.
“Tell me about your mom.” she suddenly said.
“My mom?” he asked as if he didn’t hear her the first time and she nodded.
“Alright then. My mom was the sweetest woman I’ve known so far. Despite her being a mistress, she was still so loyal to my dad, she loved me a lot and because of that love she died. She died while saving me.” Josh sniffed.
“I am sorry about that.” Asha said.
He pulled out his phone from his pocket and showed her what’s on his screen.
“That’s my mom, i look a lot like her right?” he asked but Asha said nothing as she kept staring at his phone’s screen.
Suddenly she recalled the face of the cleaner in Tara’s school and everything that happened that day.
“It all makes absolute sense now…but can it be true?” She asked in a whisper to nobody in particular.
The expression on her face was a shock and Josh had to ask.
“Asha are you ok?”
“Yeah I am fine, she’s really beautiful and the resemblance is there.” she replied with nervousness in her voice and Josh could sense it.
“Are you sure you are ok?” he asked again but got no response from her.
She left her reading table, then walked over to the bed and the next thing she did, shocked Josh to the bones.
She sat on his thighs and wrapped her hands around his neck, then merged his forehead with hers.
“I am fine, you should go to bed.” She said and when she was about to get up, Josh pulled her back on his thigh and captured her lips.
