THE ONLY HEIR chapter 77
It is 7:25 pm.I was laying on my bed and just staring at the ceiling. I was buried deep in thoughts and the sound of my phone ringing brought me back to the surface. Although I preferred being buried. The call was for Mark. I watched it ring once and after a very short second it began ringing again as soon as it ended. I didn't want to hear his complaints or his icy voice or his plan. I didn't want I hear anything I wanted to be spared.“Good evening." I said into the phone.“What took you so long?."“I don't get you."“What took you so long to answer the call."“Oh, I was making pasta in the kitchen, I didn't hear my phone ring."" It's fine. “ He said with his normal tone."Don't get fat. “ He added." I would keep that in mind. “" Why are you so nice this evening?. “ He asked me." I don't think I'm nice, you call this nice?. I just think I'm tired. “" That's understandable. I'm actually on my private yatch right now. I had seen the sunset, it was really beautiful. “" It w

I found myself taking the bus. But I know I wasn't going to work, why would I?. I would never go back to that shitty company. I was going to the way to my work because I wanted to see Frank. I wanted to talk to him, maybe tell him good bye, maybe get him to tease me a little bit. Maybe I could get him to call me beautiful. I was going to explain why I was doing this.“His last words to me was I'm disappointed in you." I said to myself. How shitty was that. What did he even mean by that?. I was walking closer and closer to the road he parks his food truck. And as I went closer, his food truck came into view. It's true what he said, that I should take in more of the scenery. I didn't even notice how beautiful the trees were, I was blocked from the beautiful songs of the songbirds. I was blocked from the wave of freshness. I was smiling when I came up to Frank's food truck. They were people buying things and I decided to walk a little out of view since he hadn't see

“Be safe." He simply said and took his eyes away from mine. He went about his business and he ignored me. He wasn't sad or angry he was just…. normal Then I realized that he was done talking and I was supposed to leave. I felt empty, disappointed... Why?Was I expecting him to talk me out of it, was I expecting too much. I thought he liked me, the way he looked at me, the way he held me that day at my house, he likes me or maybe he doesn't, maybe he's just being friendly, maybe he saw me as an ordinary girl, I was confused. I stopped to take a breath, do I like him?.Yes, I knew I liked him. Why do I like him?. That one went unanswered. Jesus what is happening to me. If he had talked me out of going, would I have listened? Would I stay?.Probably not, I was hoping to see someone act caring. I hoped that someone cared, I had hopes that he cared and I was just putting my hopes too high. Maybe I missed being everyone's Sweetheart. I missed being begged and adored and wors

“Its a long drive. “ I confessed." Yes it is. Their houses are built somewhere up the hills. They're hidden from the real buzzy world when they're in their houses. “" Darwin lives alone?. “" Yes, so does Mark. “ Then the car fell silent again.But then I knew that I wasn't going to bring up another topic again. I knew that I felt calm and relaxed and there was no need to talk some more. I looked outside the window and I watched the road, it was very beautiful. The houses were beautiful too. We were passing by the very urban houses. Houses that had terraces and pools at their roofs. Houses that I could only dream to live in. I rested my head back in the head rest when I got fed up of feeling oppression from these wealthy people in their wealthy houses.“We're almost there." Robert told me.“Before we get there, I want to ask, is his house really beautiful..."“See for yourself." Robert said. Yes, his house was beautiful. More beautiful than I had imagined. Jesus it

When I had my supper/dinner. I went to my room as Mark said and I decided to take some rest. It felt so uncomfortable, I was used to sleeping very late. I was used to sleeping off after watching TV and waking up in the middle of the night to find myself sleeping on the couch. I was used to doing a lot of things before bed. And now my body was terrified. It was scared of doing something new. I haven't watched TV for a long time now, I felt oddly bored. And now I had to sleep when the sun was going down. I looked outside my window. My bed was very high, I didn't have to stress myself to see the sky. I was snuggled under the blanket, I was smelling like candy and I was feeling like a beautiful flower. I had watched the sun set and it was very nice. It gave me a rich kind of feeling. I was in a high vibe right now and it was all thanks to Mark. I fell asleep when I heard that dainty sound of the fading song coming from downstairs, Was Mark playing it?. I d

I took off my clothes and I went to take my bath and I turned to see the door opening. It was Mila.She was walking towards me and I was stark naked. I couldn't cover my body with my hands, it would seem weird because she was staring at me as if I was fully clothed. How many naked women had she seen?. It would be a lot and they would be sexier and more fit. But I was sexy and fit, on an unbelievable level since I hardly work out. “I'm here to do your make up." She told me straight up. “Oh, okay."“Put on a robe and have a seat, or you can just have a seat if you prefer being naked, girl."“Okay, I'll put on a robe, okay?."“Stop saying okay."“Okay."“I'm serious."Then I was silent. If I wasn't affirmative, how would we communicate. And then she started laughing.“I'm just fucking with you." She said opening her big box. Come on put on a robe, let's work on your pretty face. “" Sure, give me a second. “ I put on a robe and I sat down and allowed her to do my makeup."

“Mark?." I said knocking on the door. But there was no response. " Mark?. “ I said more louder." Yes?. “He said from inside." It's me Lisa. “" I'll be there. “ He said and then I waited for him. He opened the door. And then a very beautiful look crossed his face. His eyes held emotions." Wow, Lisandré, you look very beautiful. “ He said to me. For the first time in a long time, he used my name, my full name. " Thank you, you don't look bad yourself. “ I told him." Wow. Take my hand. “ He said stretching out his and and I took it." We already have locations. Make sure you pick the one you like, it's going to be signed under your name. And you'll be stuck with it until you can get a chance to change it up. “ He said it like a wealthy man... He said and I quote “you'll be stuck with it until you can get a chance to change it up." He said it as if he was talking about a pair of shoes or toothpaste... This was a house and he was talking about choosing the one I like, can you ima

“Why don't we go on a date?." Mark asked me." A date. Are you asking me out on a date?. ““Yes."“Okay."“I have a location in mind or if you want to pick you can..."“Let's go to wherever you want." “Okay."By the time we got to the restaurant. The sun was going down. I felt boujee. I was waking with Mark... Everybody was staring... I was beautiful. I felt like a princess, I felt like a sweetheart again. I would never let this go. I was sitting facing him. “What's your favorite colour?." He asked me.“Maroon." I told him. “The colour of your eyes." He said smiling." Technically, yes. “ I said and I laughed." That's a beautiful colour, it's beautiful to stare at. its something I'd want to see when I wake up. “ To be honest. Mark was lovely. He was like a perfect gentleman, that's if you get to know the real him not the armour he shows to the world. “What's yours?." I asked him. “Black."“Respect."“The wine tastes great." He said.“The food tastes amazing. I love

My mum, my little brother, my elder brother Kai, my lovely Ará and me... All of us. “Good morning." I said to my mum.“Where's Ará?." I asked nobody in particular.“She's preparing breakfast." Kai said. I headed for the kitchen.I saw here there, handling some pots.“Good morning." I said to her walking into the kitchen.“Good morning." She said Smiling. “I woke up and I didn't see you, I figured you must have gone out for a run." " I did. “" Why don't you join me in making breakfast.“" Are you sure you don't want to have a cook or maybe just a house keeper and the house keeper can employ people to come and do some stuff. ““Remember what happened with Rosé..., Remember?."

It was late afternoon already.“You're my mother..." I whispered to myself, I figured that if I wanted anybody to hear me, I had to speak louder but I couldn't find my voice. “My mother's name was Bridgette, was it her you gave... Was I the baby?." I asked her..., My mother, my real mother. Looking at her I didn't know what to say, we all didn't know what to say. We all looked ashen and spooked. I wasn't the only heir after all, I was the child of a lovely affair. Something in me spurred, gave life to light. She was my mother... I felt as if I was another person entirely, I didn't feel like my name was Darwinson Charleston Andersons.... No, I didn't feel like I had a name but I felt that I had a past a, strong past and there was a strong love that brought be to the world... Not the strange type Bridgette and Anderson had, finally I could call them by their first names... I whispered it out “Bridgette Andersons and Anderson Cooper Andersons." It sounded good to my ears.

Once again I was making lunch while Kurtis spoke to Solo. To keep my mind away from what was happening, I decided to bury myself in poems, poems that nobody had heard.'I know but I don't want to believe, that there is no such thing as love, I know it's true that love dosent exist but If believing in it is being foolish, then I want to be foolish, if being foolish is being happy, then I want to be foolish it's not everytime in your life that you have to be wise, sometimes you know what happens next, so why not close your eyes and fall blindly into love even though it comes with heartbreak(s), at least you were once happy, at least you were once foolish. ''I have the mind of a ninety year old but the heart of a three year old, I love desperately and I care quietly, I miss calmly and I wait patiently, I want truly and I think fastly, I think deeply, I listen, I understand truly, I judge with reasons, I'm calm, my heart is stupid, my mind is mature, I won't compare myself to a lonely fl

I woke up the next morning to find the bed empty. I went to the sitting room. Solo was already dressed and he was drinking coffee.“Hey baby, why are you dressed so early?." I asked him." Mr Kurtis called. He's going to have a meeting with us today. He wants us to be there earlier today. “" Okay.... When will you be back?. “" In the afternoon. “" Good bye. “ I told him and he dropped his cup on the table." I love you sweetie, take care of Kai and yourself.“ He told me. I watched him leave.I went to the bathroom, I brushed my teeth and I had my bath. I was still dressing up when I heard the knock on the door. Did Solo leave anything in the house that he should have carried. I tied a towel around my chest. I went to the door, I undid the locks and then I turned the door open, standing there was Kurtis. He walked past me.“Jeez, Solo just left, what if you met him here."“I saw his car leave, I knew he just left, I was outside."“ For how long?." I asked him.“N

I woke up and made breakfast for Solo. While Solo was still asleep, the phone rang.“Hello." I said into the phone.“Hey baby." Kurtis's voice cut through the phone.“You called this early." I said above a whisper."I've been awake since dawn, I didn't know if would be so early, I'm sorry. ““You don't have to be, I was just worried that Solo might have picked the call." " How are you doing?. “ He asked me. “I just made breakfast... I'm good, how about you?."“I miss the hell out of you." He told me“I miss you too."“How about I come and pick you up today. My yacht is out in the ocean."“I don't know about today..." I started to say but he cut me off.“Solo is going to be done with his work soon, in two days time. I can't hold him here, surely he's going to get any contract, I can arrange that but I don't know how valid that plan would be, we literally don't have time on our hands, I've been thinking about it for so long and it's chewing me up. “" I thought about it too. “" I

I went home. As if Ana smelt it... As if she knew that I had done the abominable, she smiled a very fake smile.“Gael, you're back." She said to me. It wasn't Mrs Garcia or Miss Gael, it had changed to Gael, only Gael. But I felt good, I felt alive, I felt in love again almost reborn... I was born again. Gone was the old Gael and come was the new one. Not that they both of them had too many distinct features they didn't, they had too many in common, but this new me was the manifestation of the reborn Gael, the one that was formerly lost in being loyal... The one that had to quench her fire to fit in a type of lifestyle. “Yes, I'm back. “ I told her... My voice seemed foreign to me, it was much more bolder than the former, I was much more confident. “Hey Kai, how are you doing?." I asked Kai. “Momma." Kai said giggling. I took him from Ana.“Thank you Ana.“ I told her. She walked out of the door without saying anything. I was still in the bathroom having

The next day, after Solo had left for work. I took out those boxes, sat there in Kai's closet and I tore them. Toy train and cars that could moves with remotes... There were too many toys in the first box, too many that I wondered how Kai would play with them, all. Then in the other box were jewelries... How would I explain how I got them. I knew that I would have to come up with a new lie. If Solo asked who bought them, I would say that my colleague, Marietta gave them to Kai... She had a rich uncle no, I wouldn't say she had a rich uncle, I could say that she had a rich brother and she had a wealthy family too... And she loves Kai, should add that she also has a daughter or maybe I'll say she has a son. When Solo had come back, he had met me sitting in the living room with the two boxes on the table.“Jeez babe, what are those, the boxes are huge."“The boxes are huge aren't they... Let me tell you, come and have a sit. Do you remember Marrietta, my colleague, the funny lad

I heard the knock on the door. I wondered who it was. I was in the kitchen setting the things I would use to prepare dinner. I turned the locks, opened the door and I saw Kurtis standing there with two huge boxes standing beside him. When he saw me, he bent and he carried the both of the boxes and they seemed heavy. “Good afternoon." I said and he walked past me.“These boxes are heavier than they look." He said to me laughing. He dropped it on the table." I wasn't expecting you. “ I said to him." I know. “ He said walking to Kai's bedroom. " I was just in the office and I thought I'd come and surprise you and Kai. “ He said touching Kai's face." What's in the boxes?. “" Toys, mostly and the other things are just for you.“" For me?. “ " Yes, I picked them today myself. I'm sure you'd love them. “" Thank you, but what are they?. “ I asked him." You'll find out when you open the box. “ Kai was awake so they were playing together while I was cooking in the kitchen

“I'll be back soon." I told Ana. I turned the door and I walked out of the house. I went outside and I saw a different car, but it was black. And sitting behind the wheels was the same driver.“Hi." I said to him. He smiled at me. It didn't take long before we reached the beach. I climbed down from the car. The sun plastering on my body. The wind scattering my hair and my dress, kissing me everywhere. “Mr Kurtis will be waiting for you in the boat right there.“ The driver said pointing to a boat. It was the only boat that was there and it was big. Written on the body was 'Aqua-Marine'. I liked the name, very much. I walked to the deck and I turned around, the driver had started to drive away. This time there was no body to lead me. I saw Kurtis standing there when I was on the deck. He smiled at me. I turned to the ocean then to look at him.“Eyes like the heart of water." I told him. He laughed and stretched out his hand to me.“You look beautiful."“Than
