Chapter Five
The driver gave us a ride as I instructed, and I went shopping to buy things.
I bought clothes and different things. I enrolled him in one of the best schools in New York.
We went back home and when Liam arrived, he came with a new bicycle for Samson.
“I am enjoying this new chapter, I hope it continues forever, dad! Thank you for this, it's my dream to own a bicycle and you gave me without asking”
“That's why I need you to always free with me, you need to discuss what you need to me, I might be busy with work and I don't know what you need, Samson,open up to me whatever you need, if i am capable of doing it, I'll, I just feel like you will need one and I decided to get one”
Samson's eyes sparkled with joy as he took the new bicycle for a spin, the wind tousling his hair as he pedaled around the neighborhood.
“Thank you Liam, I am glad you are making my son happy again”
“Anything for you, and do not forget he's my child”
“I love you, I am just scared, I am scared your family won't accept me again”
“You don't need to be scared, I'll be going to my family house soon to announce to them who I fall in love with before taking you along again”
“I am just scared”
“They will accept, they really wants me to be happy again, I used to hear them say my brother didn't deserve who he marries and that you are too good for him, it was when I traveled home last year I heard that, I never even wanted to know you because I do not like my brother, not because we are step brother, but because of his character, my step sister is my bestie, we love each other, they will be happy you are marrying to the family again, we are step-brother remember?”
“I know, it's fine, I'll just have the Faith, I am glad I found you, I never knew I could fall in love, please don't hurt me”
“You don't have to tell me that, I know, I can't ever hurt you, I wish you knew how I love you, I wish you knew how I wish to make you mine forever, I am even scared more, I am scared you might leave me for my brother later”
“No! That would never happened, such thing won't happen, Alex is not someone I could go back to, he doesn't worth that”
“I hope so, then I would tell a maid to come, she would take you to your room and Samson room, she will be your personal maid, the one you can send errand, I will make sure she's someone I can trust”
“Thank you Liam, this is so huge, I blessed the day I met you”
“If you need anything you are free to let me know”
“You have done enough, more than I thought, I wonder why Alex is not like you”
“Well, people do not know what's going on, my mother left my father because he's too busy with work, and she married Mr. Wilson, but the fact that she remarries, my dad still love her and he takes care of the bills of her family, he gives my mum money every month, take care of the children she gave birth to for Mr. Wilson, and I am actually free with her family, I go there anytime I want”
“Whoa! I didn't know”
“Well, Alexander, your ex-husband is not just a serious type, my dad gave him one of his companies, he sold almost everything in there, he almost ruin my father, and my father gave him $20,000M to go and do whatever he wants to do with it”
“Whoa! Some step father won't do that, your father really tried, but I never knew that, Alexander never told me that, I married him when he was a worker at a company, he was sacked and I was the one working so the family could survive”
“It all happened before he got married, and even before he got married, they warned….”
“Warned him? What's that?”
“That's all in the past, what matters right now is that we are both in love, right?”
“Hmm, yes, where's Samson, he's so happy that you got a new bicycle for him, and he doesn't know anywhere here, where did he ride it to?”
“He wouldn't be allowed to go out of the gate, don't worry about that”
“Whoa! This your house is too big, your parents must be very proud of you”
“Yes, they are”

The sun shone brightly through the sheer curtains as I awoke to the unfamiliar stillness of the morning. Without the pressing demands of work or the early morning rush to the gym, I found myself at a loss. A sense of restlessness crept in, filling the void that was left by her busy schedule.
I rose from my bed and walked to the window, admiring the view of the city skyline. Liam's luxurious home was a far cry from my own modest apartment, and yet, I couldn't help but feel out of place.
My son came to my room and hug me, “Mum, I am enjoying this house, I don't want to leave”
“I understand you because I can also feel it here, and Samson, you will be attending the most expensive and biggest school in New York now”
“Whoa! This is so wonderful, and I was against you gyming at first”
I smiled, “The maid will soon come and take you to bath for you” and just as I said, the maid came and Samson followed her.
I can see joy all over Samson's face.
Some minutes later, someone knocked.
“Come on” Liam came in, “Good Morning”
“Good Morning darling” he walked towards me.
“How was your night?” I asked.
“It was fine, and yours?”
“Fine, I don't think I will be fine being at home without doing anything, like is there any vacancy at your work please? Probably chef, I can cook very well, I know this is not part of the agreement, but please”
“Just be here, you will get used to it, watch movies, play games”
“Please, I am not used to that lifestyle”
“Then will you be my personal assistant”
“Yes, I'll be happy”
“Alright, my P. A is traveling next month, by Monday you can start”
“Thank you” I said, and kissed him lightly on his lips, he pushed me closer to him, and kissed me passionately.
