“Oh my gosh I’m so sorry please.”
I soon realized what I had done. Spitting out the contents from my mouth to her face was never my intention.
I stared at her ruined dress and felt more bad.
“It’s okay” she brought out a kerchief and began to wipe her face.
“I’m really sorry about the mess. It’s just that I never really expected you to say that. I mean, we’ve been friends for long and you’ve never mentioned anything about them. Or even ask about them either. So I got sort of ermm..”
I paused, coughing a little.
“It’s no big deal David. I just want to get to know them”
???? ALICIA ????
Fvck! It’s definitely a big great deal!!! A big deal I must admit. It’s so not easy for me to make out time and be with kids.. but I got to do this.
At least for the Feelings I have for him.
If I get to be very close with his kids, like Nora had adviced, I think I might easily get a chance to be with him..
I so much yearn for a chance with David and I’d do anything to go to that extent.
“You sure you wanna meet them?”
He asked again… Looking so unsure.
“Yeah,m. I mean it” I nodded.
Why does he keeps asking that? I’m dead serious about it and I mean every word.
Even if I don’t like kids, I just wanna pretend I like them. In order to win their hearts so I can have my way with their Dad.
From what I’ve noticed, he has so much affection towards his kids and it’s literally taking his time that he doesn’t even bother to get a new wife.
The hell?.
He’s still too young and full of life.
That little man standing between his legs surely needs attention. And David don’t have to neglect it.
“It’s okay. I’d really appreciate you meet them.. they will definitely be Happy to see you”
He flashed me sexy a smile.. revealing his White teeth.
I smiled back and continued with my food.
???? DAVID ????
“They will definitely not be Happy to see her!!!” I half-yelled to my best friend Mark. Who sat with me in my office.
“Seriously Man. I don’t get the reason why you’re freaking out. She just wanna see them and know them.. that’s worth something don’t you think?”
Yeah. It’s worth something..
I sighed out..” she’s actually the first lady friend to make such request. So it’s definitely worth something” I breathe hard.
“Then Relax…”
“I can’t mark. My kids… They’re not gonna be so happy with it.” I pointed out.
“How sure are you about that? They haven’t met her yet so you can’t possibly jump into conclusions”
“My kids don’t wanna see me around women or anything on skirts..” I spoke out with so much worry.
“Seriously David.. you need to start thinking about yourself for once! Stop worrying about your kids.. you and I know that as a man with four children, it’s not easy… You need assistance..
You can’t possibly handle them all by yourself.. don’t you think it’s time to start thinking of getting yourself a girlfriend? You surely need one bro”
The aspect of me needing an assistant, Mark’s definitely right.. he’s making sense..
I’ve been too busy with kids and alongside I forget about myself.. I can’t do this alone. It’s so frustrating!
I have seen hell these past nine months without Mariah and it hasn’t been easy.
“You’re kinda right in all of these Buddy. But I can’t help to think how my kids will feel about this decision.. you know them so well so I guess you know what I mean”
Mark took a deep breath and adjusted himself a little on his seat.
” They won’t like the idea, but in time they’ll adjust. Trust me” he assured.
And I gave in with a smile.
“Yeah, they will..”
“David don’t act or feel bad about this . Give it a try and you’ll see what I mean.
Alicia has shown interest in your kids, that’s a first step in knowing a good woman who can take care of the kids with you.
Alicia likes you alot and you know it. Why not try things out with her. The kids will come around”
He reassured me and I felt a little relieved.
Mark my best friend has a way of making me feel better.
Just so you know, Mark is also a father of a sweet baby girl. Same age with Noel I think.. or I guess she’s seven.
“So how’s Karen?” I asked.
Mark’s a single dad too. He’s been having issues with Karen’s mom… His girlfriend.. Ella.
To me, I think Ella’s done with Mark but as you have it.. my friend still loves her Alot and he isn’t ready to move on. He’s been single ever since while taking care if the child she bore him.. still waiting for the day Ella would come back to him and her daughter. Karen.
Ella most times comes to pay a visit to Karen. She doesn’t talk much with Mark and my best friend still acts like everything is okay… But deep down, I know he’s hurting and he seriously wants her back.
“She’s okay.. she has been looking for an opportunity to come spend time with your kids during weekends. But I seriously don’t want to add to your stress cause I know janietta and your stubborn Noel are already good in playing that part”
He chuckled slightly..
He does know my kids too well.
“They are a handful… I’ll definitely think over what we just discussed.. and I’ll see what to do about it. Who knows, you might be right about Alicia. She may be the right person for this”.
