Lucien sighed as he followed her up the stairs but she was quick to lock the door .
” Lucia please open up , let’s talk about this . Please trust me nothing is going to happen between us there . I love you and you know that . Please don’t do this ” he said and after waiting without hearing anything , he turned back and headed for his room , but felt a hand wrap around his back as he was about entering the room .
Lucien smiled in relief as he turned and held her close to himself .
” I promise you that nothing will happen and for the fact we would be in separate suites till I return ” he said .
” It’s fine , ” Lucia said and kissed him which Lucien responded to immediately and Lucia wrapped her legs around his torso .
Lucien supported her weight as he carried her into the room .
He dropped her on the bed and the rest was history.
…..
Thelma dried her tears as she wondered where she had gone wrong for Derrick to be giving her a cold shoulder all day .
She turned and startled at the towering figure before her and shook .
She was about moving away from him when he pulled her closer and engaged her in a frenzy kiss before pulling away.
” I am sorry ” he said calmly cupping her face and wiped the tears trickling down .
” I am sorry for making you cry when we are not even married yet ” he said and Thelma nodded .
” I just got into a bad mood and everything was irking me . Lucien was the only one who could help me a bit ” he said and Thelma smiled and pecked him on the cheeks .
” It’s fine but please don’t do it again . I was very worried and couldn’t come with any thing or mistake I had done to deserve the treatment ” she said and hugged him tightly making Derrick smile .
He really loves this lady and won’t do anything to hurt her .
Even if it means dying he would do it.
” Derrick I want icecream” Thelma said with a groan .
” Anything for my queen, I will just go get you one from the freezer” he said pulling away .
” No I don’t want the one in the fridge , I want a freshly made icecream not the one in the refrigerator for a long time. ” She said tearing up.
” What but this is already night Thelma, how do I get you a freshly made icecream by this time . ” He asked in surprise.
” So you won’t get me a new icecream . What have I ever done wrong ” she said in anger walking to the bed.
” Ok calm down I will go get you the icecream now ” Derrick said itching his hair as he picked up his car keys and walked out of the room. .
” Was this how pregnant women behaves and Thelma hasn’t even gone far in her pregnancy and she is already giving him a lot of troubles .
He got into his car as he thought of possible places to go get the icecream this night and remembered Twitzers , they were always open 24hours 7 days and he had thought they were stupid but now he knew well that emergencies like this could come up and he was grateful for their relentless services .
Derrick got to Twitzers after a twenty minutes drive and hurriedly got in.
He walked to where the icecream products were displayed .
” Ok make me four plates of icecream of the different flavors you have here. ” He said and the attendant nodded .
She wasn’t surprised because people has also come with similar request like him .
” What size are you buying ” she asked pouring the materials into the icecream machine .
” The biggest size ..” he said
” That would be a bucket size ” she said with a grin .
” Yes do it and please be fast about it before she throws more tantrums” he said frustratedly .
” Lady problem right ” she asked pressing out the already made icecream into the container .
” Yes , pregnancy hormones ” he said not minding if she was poke nosing but he just needed someone to talk to and she had proved herself available.
” Oh wow you are married ” she asked staring at his hands and not seeing any ring .
” About to ” he said with a wink making her flush .
” Here have the icecream, I made vanilla, chocolate, strawberry and banana flavours ” he said and he nodded appreciatively .
” Here , have my card ” he said and she collected his debit card which she used to debit him after he had typed in his pin.
” Can I have your ,,This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Number ”
Before she could finish saying it he had already ran out of the store and Bella cussed herself for not playing fast .
She was really attracted to him and damn if he had a pregnant wife.
They were not yet married so she could still shoot her shot at him .
She walked out of the counter with a cup of icecream as she headed to get some snacks to go with it .
She can’t wait and she was happy for the good luck which had shone upon her today .
Just to trap him and snatch him .
..
Derrick received a call as he was about driving in and he groaned when he saw it was his aunt.
What is it with this woman .
He accepted the call and placed it on loudspeaker still driving in .
He waited for his Aunt’s voice to pop up
” Hello Derrick , is that lady still in your house ” she asked with a mean tone .
“. What lady ” he asked playing dumb .
” That low class lady that you intend to get married to ” she said and Derrick gripped his hand tighter on the steering .
” Aunt , she isn’t low class , she was helping my bestfriend in his house. ” He said although he sounded stupid .
” Ok what are her parents occupation . What class are they from ” she asked.
” Aunt stop being a pain in my neck and just let me be . Mum approves of my relationship so stop this madness ” he said and he heard his aunt hiss .
” Even if you bring a blind woman to the house , your mom would still approve it ” she said and Derrick almost laughed at her words but he held himself .
” Aunt lets not prolong this issue , I am getting married to Thelma in a few days time and there is nothing that anyone can do to stop me . Not when she is pregnant .” He said and he heard his aunt gasp .
” Pregnant” she muttered but he was quick to hang up .
Damn
So much trouble for one marriage.
