I was shocked when I felt something kiss my stomach.
“Goodmorning, babe …” I opened my eyes and found the smiling Clyde Marcus in front of me.
“Wake up, babe. You need to eat and take your vitamins now.” I moaned in protest and tilted to lie down. I was about to close my eyes again when he laid next to me and hugged me.
“Clyde, I’m still sleepy!” He laughed softly and put his face on my neck.
“I think you were tired last night.” I slapped his hand which only made him laugh even more.
“But baby.. I think what we did last night in the sand is not safe for you.” I frowned at what he said.
“Oh why?” I will ask.
“The doctor said it’s okay to do that as long as you’re safe. But I don’t think you were safe last night because we did it on the sand and it’s windy there. are you okay?” The regret in his voice was obvious.
I laughed and slapped his arm. “I’m fine!” I answered and faced him.
We both stared at each other. “I think I was the happiest man in the world last night.”
“Why?” I asked again. he smiled and touched my lips with a quick kiss.
“Because the woman that I love the most just said I love you too last night. Who wouldn’t be happy huh?” He said with a smile.
“Really? You’re having so much fun?” I asked smiling.
“Ofcourse ! now tell me, when did you know that you love me?” He asked which made me laugh again.
“Since the day that you offered me to be your slave. I was in denial at first but I know in my heart that I love you. I fell for you. I have to admit that when I first saw you, I really had a crush on youI try to seal it in my heart and mind that I can’t. “His forehead is now furrowed because of what I said.
“Why?” He asked.
I pinched the tip of his nose and smiled. “Because you’re rich, I’m just poor. We don’t matter. those you date at charities, balls, and parties are more suitable for you. Those women you can date are more beautiful than me. Atsaka bagay kayo kasi pareho kayong mayaman. Eh me? I’m just a helper. Not rich and not beautiful- ”
“Uh-uh, you’re very wrong in that part. You pretty, gorgeous, beautiful, and stunning.” I don’t know if I’ve laughed before, but what he said really made me laugh again.
“Thank you for the compliment, then.” I smiled.
“Always remember that you’re beautiful. that is one of the reason why you caught my attention and I fell inlove with you. I don’t care if you’re rich or not. I don’t care about the other women. It’s you that I want. You’re the woman that I love, Nathania. I love you. Always remember that. “He said and kissed my lips. when he left I was the one who smiled at him.
“I love you too. That’s why I’m giving you a chance to change and show me that your feelings are true. If you break the trust I gave you again, I don’t know if it will be built again. just promise me that you will be honest to me okay? “I said as he nodded.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“And I also promise to love you. To take care of you and our baby. I promise to be loyal and faithful to you. And I promise to be a good man for you. I love you so much.”
It’s true what they say when you’re happy, time flies. For the past three weeks, I’ve felt nothing but joy in being with Clyde. And in those three weeks, he proved himself and his love for me. I’m very happy. we’re both happy with our lives right now. Quiet and happy living on this peaceful island. It was late when I finished watching sofia the fist. I think Clyde is in the room taking a shower. I turned off the TV and went upstairs to our room. it’s almost eight in the evening. Maybe it was finished in the shower. I slowly turned the door and immediately heard Clyde’s voice from the terrace. It’s like talking to someone. I frowned and tried not to make any noise as I entered.
“Daniella, I’m busy. let’s just talk some other time.” My forehead only furrowed even more when I heard that from Clyde. I peeked at him and saw his cell phone against his ear.
“I told you, Daniella. Stop overacting! Okay, okay. I’ll call you soon.”
Who is he talking to?
Daniella? said Daniella. Daniella Monroe?
Why would he call Clyde?
I felt my chest tighten. Only Daniella Monroe I know is close to her. Close to him to the point that I even came across them both almost naked. my chest tightened even more and my head warmed at the memory.
We haven’t even talked about what happened that day. And now that she had a nickname, she said ‘Daniella’. I only know one Daniella. Daniella Monroe.
But why did he call? why are they both talking?
Is there something I don’t know?
“Nathania!” I looked up at Clyde whose face was clearly shocked. It’s like committing a sin to look at me.
“Have you been there before?” It asked and approached me.
I shook my head. He took me by the arm and led me to the bed.
“It’s almost eight. You need to sleep now.” It supports me in lying down.
I looked closely at its face. My heart hurts. the pain of remembering what they did that day and hearing what it said to the caller he had called earlier Daniella.
I am not stupid and I am not numb. I’m not stupid either. I know what what happened earlier means.
They still have communication with that Daniella Monroe.
I know Clyde is hiding something from me.
