Life's sweetness
It's a new day, the gentle breeze begins flowing, it feels so warm.The sun rays glanced over the horizon and slowly rises from the east and peeks through the window and whispers 'good morning'. My life was cosy and sweet. I had the best boyfriend, the best house, the best life, and I am so grateful. My name is Alexa Stuart. My mom disowned me because I refused to leave Andrew, I love Andrew so much that I said, carrying a picture and gently stroking it. It was the gift Andrew gave me during our 2nd anniversary, he bought me a house and everything, he was the light to my dark deep place. My phone began to ring, interrupting me from my day dream, ughhh it was Zoey, my bestie. She's really the best. 'Hey Zoey, ooh, I see at your place 10 pm today... yh yh I totally remembered'. Oh no, tomorrow is Zoey's birthday and I promised to help her find a suitable dress for the occasion. I checked my wristwatch and it was almost 10. I hurriedly ate my breakfast and took my bath. I stood in the mirror staring at myself, I was very pleased with how I looked today. Compared to Zoey in terms of shape, I am no March for her, Zoey has undergone 20 plastic surgeries to give her the perfect body, according to her, but I am happy with my shape I said chuckling. As long as Andrew does not complain. Alexa, you are always late, Zoey said as I approached her. I'm sorry Zoey I'll take any punishment I said chuckling, I only knew Zoey for 2 years but I was sure to call her my best friend, she was a really sweet person.We got into the mall and Zoey started testing all sort of clothes, I was short on money so I decided to go window shopping. ooh what a wonderful man, Andrew is I said, smiling happily. I wasn't watching where I was going and then bumped into a man, I ended up hugging the man to serve as my support. I am sorry, sir. I said bowing my head apologetically, He didn't answer me, but he just stared at me with those piercing eyes and left. I went to go check out on Zoey, and she was done buying her clothes. Let's go home, Alexa. Zoey paid for her clothes, then she drove me to her house, maids and servants were already setting up the place for the occasion, everywhere was lively. Zoey, I'll be on my way, Oh Alexa you are already going home? relax here and have dinner with us.Thanks, but Andrew has not called me today, and I'm kinda worried about him. I left Zoey's house by 6 pm. I decided to walk home. I wanted to free myself from the world and it trouble, walking was my own way of relaxing. I went into the park and sat down on a bench, I was really exhausted. I did not even notice a man sitter on the bench with me. I only noticed him when he stood up to make a call, I think, his friend wanted to propose to someone. I wonder how Andrew will propose to me, I want it to be the most magical scenerio in my life, there should be lots of flowers especially hibiscus,everywhere painted pink oooh what a nice day it will be. I decided I had relaxed enough and decided to go home. It was already 7 pm and I need to get home as soon as possible. When I arrived home it was already 7:40 pm, I really need a shower, I stink. When I was at the front gate, I put my house pin, but it was incorrect. I was flabbergasted, Who changed the pin? This is my house?Right.I am sure of it, Andrew bought it for me. Different thoughts flooded my mind, and I decided to use the doorbell to see who was inside the house. When the doorbell rang, a little girl opened the house, it looks as though a family had moved into my house. Maybe it was some kinda mistake. Hi, little angel. I said smiling sweetly, "Can you call your parents for me?" Dad! Dad!! A beautiful woman is here to see you! I heard a woman's voice she was shouting at the top of her voice, maybe she thought I was her husband chick I said Chuckling. Hey, Woman, come in. The woman shouting earlier invited me into the house. Her husband was already seated on the sofa. This woman must really have a jealousy problem. I sat down on the sofa opposite her Husband's,what can I get for you, Miss? ooh thank you. I'll have just water. So I came here to talk about this house, I live here oooh!! the woman said from the kitchen we bought the house and decided to move in today, it was posted on the internet and the house was beautiful and we wanted to start a new life, in a new environment so we moved here after we brought it the woman said giving me my glass of water. What!!! I said, taking a sip. I really needed to digest what I just heard. Look at the papers and documentary of the contract we made to buy this house, but ma, I said interrupting her was any of my property in the house. No, no, none of your property. The house was empty when we came in, oooh thanks a lot, I'll go now. Maybe my boyfriend sold it out mistakenly. Thanks for the effort. I left the house and dailed Andrew number, but his secretary picked up the call and said he was busy and would call me back. Well, he normally works late that, my baby! I said, blushing. I went to the nearest hotel to stay, when I opened my bank app I had no money in it, I was flabbergasted what!!!!! how Andrew sent me a lot of money and now I am seeing nothing. Maybe I am dreaming, Yeah yeah dreaming, I said, trying to comfort myself, but I knew that what I saw was real. I called Andrew again, but his line was switched off now, I went back to my house to ask the couple living there for accommodation. I rang the doorbell and the woman opened the door. What again!! she said, looking irritated. oooh, can I spend the night here? No, no, no way, my husband is a...... how will I put it he likes pretty women, and I think he has a hunch for you. I want to protect my marriage girl she said to then slammed the door. I could not ask Zoey, I didn't want to become a burden to her, I had no friends around, and my mom lives in another town. I remembered the number card the stranger left, I could not sleep on the street. No way, I'll try my luck. Maybe he may come. 'Speak! oooh sorry, my name is Alexa, the girl you met in the mall and at the park, I found your card and a piece of paper. You can meet me in 123 Streets. Bye I decided to sound mysterious because I did not want to sound like a person looking for free accomodation, life began to seem bitter to me I wondered where all the sweetness has gone, now am trying to lie to someone to find somewhere to stay, my sweet life has become a bitter,bitter experience I hope I'll be better soon. Hey, Jason, get the car ready. I need to meet someone now. Should I send bodyguard, sir? No, no, I can handle it . I saw a black car approaching me then a tall man came out of the car, I could not see his feature, it was dark but I knew he was handsome. You wanted to speak name your price? No no sir no rush. I said it was my first time doing this, and I had to be more brave.
