"So, I'll ask again for the last time. What did you mean by, 'too' ?"
I took another bite of the burger. Twas a signature meal. She was munching too, but occasionally putting her finger to the side of her lips.
"I thought you forgot about it."
She muttered and I chuckled. What I wanted to do was scoff regarding how lowly she had considered my memory. But you know, there are somethings no one has no control over.
"We have only few minutes here. Don't squander it."
She hesitated firstly then drank from the glass of juice. She did the usual then said,
"I'm in no position to say it."
I hit my other palm on the table like I'd seen people do when they are pretty pissed. Ouch, it did hurt. Though slightly.
People looked at me at that but I didn't care. That was why I hated eating in common restaurants. But what could I had done? I wanted to have that conversation

At Work. ~Dia Wealene~ "Hey, Steve." I said over the speaker, the office telephone caught between my neck and collarbone, across the acromioclavicular joint. "I have a lead on your driver." His voice husky but tamed. A part of me feels like almost all professions train the voices of their employees. "Tell me. What have you discovered yet?" "He used to be a drug dealer. He had been involved in several international smuggles. And the latest data of his last smuggling was three years ago. Remind me, where did you meet him in the first place?" I'VE NEVER TOLD YOU BEFORE, WHY SAY, REMIND ME. I thought, but then, "In an elevator when I was leaving work. It's not in Colorado. I think it was when I was in Las Vegas for a business stuff." He went silent for a while. I could here the scraping of pen on paper on his own end. He seemed to be scribbling. Then he came on, "Keep

Her Brother's birthday. ~Dia Wealene~ "Caidine!!" I called climbing down the stairs as I headed into the first palour. "Gotten everything ready yet? Just got a call from him, he would be here in few minutes." Loe rushed to me and I picked him up as I headed to the second Parlour. Caidine was nowhere to be found, neither was Rowe. But the place had already being decorated. There were countless numbers of balloons drooping from the ceiling, and to the wall opposite me was a pasted inscription in the wall: Happy Birthday, Little Brother. To the right of that wall was what looked like a 3D lamp which occasionally projected the several pictures of my brother. The floor had several stuff scattered around it. It should seem dirty, rather it beautified the place. But that wasn't enough for me. I couldn't help but nurse even naughty thoughts since the both of them weren't in view.

Still the birthday. ~Dia Wealene~ "Can someone tell what is actually going on here?" It seemed to me as though I've been made a fool as I maintained the same spot I have been standing on since five quiet and awkward minutes now. Ray was standing before the couch, and Caidine had returned from the rest room. She was standing at the entrance to the second parlour. She had her face to the floor. "You guys don't want to test my patience right now? You know too well that I have no cool, Ray." I tried as much as possible to keep it as a threat but twas really more than that. I was already beginning to lose it. Then suddenly, Ray quit shooting her the apologetic stare and held my gaze, "She's the lady." "What do you mean the lady. Have you ever told me about any la--" I paused for a moment as I finally broke the words. "You mean the maid you impregnated?" I came to

Work.~Dia Wealene~"It doesn't really work like that."I shot bluntly, staring at the door opposite as thought twas the victim, whereas I was talking over the phone."Of course you know, Dia Wealene, but we would need to put some of these things into consideration if at all we want COLORFUL ENTREPRENEURS to keep soaring. If we think we have all covered already, don't be surprised when all our efforts go down the drain in the twitch of an eye."I sighed and spun the office chair around to face the wall TV."Who is the president here, Greg?""You seem to be missing something, Dia. We are all presidents. We all represent the COLORFUL ENTREPRENEURS. You were only appointed because we think it best that you handle the delicate matters."I scoffed, throwing one of my hands back to cup my long sleek hair which reached down my back to the rise of my backside."I'm about to hang the call."

Later that day. At a bar.~Dia Wealene~"Do you want me to replace you with someone else?"I said on top of my voice, taking a leave of the sight of the barman who kept on shooting me this wierd stare. I knew what he wanted."Forgive me, if I have wronged you."He pleaded. I scoffed and looked away, but regrettably back at the barman. Twas a noisy place. We could had chosen a less raspy bar but I kinda needed a typical distraction while discussing with him."This isn't about whether or not to forgive you, Rowe. What if I had been strangled to death before you arrived? What would had been your excuse, you would had snatched my properties, eh? Since I have no child."He tried to reach his hand through the counter at me. Of course he was seated close to me but he did have guts though. I pulled my hand back and glared at him."Sorry."He got the idea and puffed. He got carried away

At work.~Dia Wealene~"I can't think of anyone precisely for now."I had thought for a while before speaking over the phone. But it seemed more like trying to convince myself other than the person I was discussing with."Maybe you should take your time."Steve urged. I nodded,"I'll try to. But who could be so close to me that would had sent such rogue as Rowe to me. I guess the person wants me dead."I heard Steve chuckle and wanted to take it out on him but held back as he came on,"I don't think his motive is to kill. If it's that, he would had done that pretty sooner than this. I think it's a game, a game of intelligence. I can't place it yet, but I'm still working on it."He paused and continued,"Is there something else you need to tell me about him? We don't have time anymore. If you think you have anything which would be helpful, why don't you tell me?"I sighed."I don't t
Dia: A Lover's Revenge The Beach's bitch.
In lest than fifteen minutes, we've arrived at the enclosed beach for private purposes. A beach opened to only folks like me; not only rich but affluent and renowned. Most times, on a typical day, there are few or nobody present. And we barely have the splashing of the waves by the swimmers, because many go there to catch a view, discuss and feel the caresses of the gentle breeze."We sure aren't going to swim, are we?"Alfred quizzed as we walked through the opening into the vast space."Of course not, we'll just sit and talk. I wanted to let out some steam.""Oh. "He nodded and we headed to the spot. There were only two couples to the right and left. To the very end by the left was a small cafeteria for grilled chicken, cheese and wine."Rowe, go grab some snacks. Something cool enough."He left immediately and I turned to Alfred,"I'm sure you won't mind sitting on this sharp san

A week Later.~Dia Wealene~"Let's move to the last agenda of the meeting."Greg called and the founder took the stance. As usual, we were seated around the official table, a typical meeting of the COLORFUL ENTREPRENEURS. A meeting due."There have been some uprising of late which majority of us have been turning blind eyes to, though it keeps preying on the development and growth of our association."He paused for a while then continued,"As little as leaches are, their effects on the growth of a plant cannot be ignored. Same falls on this stray, which seemed rather of less value but is stylishly eating deeply into the stem of our growth.""Can we have the direct approach to this matter?"The lady of the couple amongst us came on. What she had meant was CAN YOU COME OUT CLEAN PLEASE?Majority of the CEO's of this association seem rather reserved. And that is owed to the belief that the fo

Group Vacation: Maldives.
Four months Later. Maldives.~Dia Wealene~"How many times have they kicked?"Caidine called at me, walking out of the hut to join the remaining three of us. We were seated at the edge of the long wooden elevated basement on which the hut had been built. The row of huts were built on the ocean.I had my head resting on Albert's shoulder and Ray seated next to me. Caidine got to us and handed each of us a hollow, long cup of tasty spicy juice. Ray let her sit next to me."Now you've made them seem jobless. I don't believe that all babies do is kick. They sure have some other tasks they catch up to."I teased. I knew I was being unreasonable but no matter how sour and crazy my joke seemed, Albert's laugh was always the loudest. And sometimes, I am forced to think that he laughs at how boring my jokes are.And he has been acting that way since he discovered that I was pregnant with his twins. Two g

The Introduction
Wealene's multimillionaire house. Yorkshire.~Albert~"Let no one say a thing, I got this covered."Dia promised as Ray, Caidine, and Ray jr in between them walked towards us after pulling over their own car in Mr Wealene's large compound."Everyone seems to be here. But who is the owner of those strange cars. I hate to believe that crazy Mr Wilson is here. But it's all good, everything would be sorted today."She affirmed as she ran her arm into the space between my arm and waist. She held me like couples would do and called,"After me, y'all."As we walked towards the door, I wanted so badly to tell her the last secret but sincerely I was scared. And I still am. I should tell her but I just can't, no matter how hard I try.But the fact is, the truth cannot stay hidden for long. In just less than five minutes, all would be ratted out. The only concern that scared the hell out of me is her reactio

Sweet Home.~Dia Wealene~"When did you get a new Ferrari?"He queried as soon as he pulled over in my compound. One thing was the fact that I couldn't believe that this was the end of vacation, let alone the recent stance he had just assumed."What Ferrari?"I turned to him but he had stepped out of the car and walked over to my side. He got the door and I stepped out. He pointed in the direction of the garage. Parked was a red Ferrari. "I never drove this in, and I don't remember telling the automobile company to bring a new car. Nor did Caidine tell me about any--"I hesitated for a while as a supposition suddenly hit me."Come."I walked towards the door as he caught up with me. He held my hand and we both walked into the parlor."Where are they?"I quizzed, walking into the empty first parlour. Then suddenly, came the blast of music over the speaker, b

Day 7
Colorado.~Dia Wealene~"I wish we could stay a week more."I complained, tracing my pinky finger through the deep hollow between his two pouting chests. The tip of my skin feeling the hardness of his torso. My head was on the spot where the shoulder meet the chest. We were both in bed. We just finished having sex. And it hadn't been forever since we got here. It's late at night. We're in a hotel. Hyatt Residence Club Beaver Creek, Mountain Lodge."We will. But not now. We will go on several other vacations after our wedding."He assured, stroking the loose strands of hair on my temple. Gentle caresses that turn me on."But wedding can wait. Let's just enjoy many more days alone."I looked up at him, my head poised, chin on his chest, eyes sorting out his.He suddenly sat up, leaning on the head of the bed. He helped me up too and made me sit in between his thighs, his warm arms wounded around m

Day 5 and 6
In the middle of the ocean. Bangkok.~Dia Wealene~"Where'd he go?"I walked into the large sitting room in the yacht. My eyes were slightly heavy from sleep but that wasn't enough to slow me down. I walked past the numerous couches locked into each other in a circular mound in the heart of the space.I put up my left hand and caught the sight of the diamond ring glistering. I smiled at the memory of a day before yesterday. I kissed the ring and let out a light laugh. I walked towards the door.We'd spent the previous day in a private jet and had flew all the way from Vegas to Thailand. I have no idea how he chooses his thing, but he seemed obsessed with long-distance stuff.The 24 hours we spent on the jet passed by so quickly, since we spent most of it playing games and watching movies. And earlier this morning, we've set on the ocean and had had some sex spree. And I was just waking up. Waking up to hi

He proposed...
"Albert?"I turned around. I was on a cliff with a flat, rectangular top. At the edge of the cliff on the four sides were lit candles and in the middle were sprinkled pink flowers all over the place."Albert?"My heart would liquefy. I'm sure."I'm here!"I heard his voice from the path that led up the cliff. I hurried towards there and couldn't move any further. There were rocky stairs that lead up the cliff. And at the edges of the stairs were candles too. That must be what we had climbed.Albert was walking towards me, climbing the stairs, and in his hands were two giant bouquet of different kinds of flowers I'd never seen."Albert?"I wasn't sure of what else to say as he got to me and handed me both the flowers."Come, my love."He called and I followed him not sure of what to expect even though my sixth-sense was loud enough.As we got back to the spot I had left be

The Surprise
Grand Canyon.~Dia Wealene~"Do you really think this is necessary?"I argued, not sure of what else to say. Of course I was been beaten by curiosity as well as anxiety, but both had pressed on me so greatly that I was beginning to feel uncomfortable."We're almost there. You don't have to worry, as soon as I park the car, you'll be in my arms all the way through, till we get to where we are going."He explained. But I kept up the pace of the argument,"But really, Albert. It's already night. Having a blindfold on me makes no difference."I could feel a silhouette eating me up as he pressed his lips on my cheek."To me, it matters. Just trust me, baby."There was plea in his tone and I wasn't ready to prove further."Fine."I muttered, even though twasnt enough. I wanted to tell him to kiss me in the lips to shut me up but I let the urge slide.We had left Japan early this mor

Day 2 and 3
Thermae Bath Spa. Japan. ~Dia Wealene~ "This is one of those. At least, my young days tasted some of the renowned English buildings in some part of the world." He replied, explaining. He was leaning on the border of the Minerva bath. Twas like a large pool with steams, but I could tell from the feel of the water on my skin, that the water is well treated; mineral-rich. "But it's rather strange. A UK establishment in the heart of Japan. Maybe I should say it's impressive. One of these days, Cleavinks should have a branch too in one of these Asian countries. I'm sure their folks are pretty innovative." He turned to me at that, closing the space in between us; we were facing the front before the turn. "No folks are dumb. But really, have we come all the way to Japan to talk about business?!" He pulled me closer and stole my lips. His left hand at my nape, and the right sliding down my back till it h

Day 1
Few Days Later.~Albert~"Where to?"She quizzed, taking a quick glance at the side of my face. I turned to her as quickly as I could, my eyes straying off the express road, my firm hands drifting the steering wheel through the road."Disclaimer: All you have to do for these seven days is to sit back and trust all of my words. Because if you ask me again to where I'm taking you, I would have no choice but to tell you, which would make it no surprise anymore. You know, I can't really keep a secret from you anymore."I paused. The rays of the sun stealing through the window of her seat beside me revealed the glee sweeping past her face. I guess I tried. Caidine had told me to give details whenever she asks a question. I had forgotten to ask her why, but I guess it's really working and helping."What else did Caidine teach you?"She sneered at me. My heart missed a beat. I wanted to show it as Caidin
