“What’s the problem with you, Marco? Why the sudden cough?’ Her hands were placed on his chin.“Get me water, babe. I need water urgently.” He begged for water with his hands wrapped around his mouth as he gasped for air.Bella hurriedly stood in speed and rushed to the kitchen, grabbed a glass cup, and filled it up with water before returning to the sitting room and handing it over to Marco.He collected the glass of water from her hand and drank everything within a blink of an eye. Bella still placed her hands around his chin and looked into his eyes, trying to find an answer within those innocent eyes of him.“Babe, Did I say anything wrong at all? What’s the reason behind the cough? This is basically the first time I’ve seen you cough this hard before. You can talk to me if you need someone to talk to. You know that I’m always right here for you to listen to all your pain and worries.” Her mind was calculating everything that could be going on in Marco’s mind.He cleared his throat a
After thorough driving from one junction to another, Ethan decided to stop at a bar to take a bottle of drink.He was so angry at himself for the mistake he had made earlier with Bella. He kept on drowning himself without minding the repercussions of his actions.Ring…. Ring….His phone rang out loud, but he didn't bother looking at the screen to see who was calling him before declining the call.Ring….. Ring…It rang the second time, and this time around, he didn't bother picking it up; he placed his hand by the side corner of the phone and switched it off.“Damn! What the hell is wrong with Uncle Ethan? Why doesn't he want to pick up his phone? The time is 12:00 a.m., and he is not yet back from work. This is totally unlike him, or is he sleeping out with some pretty ladies?" Nadia pondered, with different thoughts roaming through her mind.The waitress, who stood from a distance, could see that Ethan was almost drunk. She went to where Ethan sat and withdrew the bottle from him.“Who are y
Saturday came so fast, within a blink of an eye. The bright morning sun dimmed so deeply into Nadia's eyes as she lay on the bed. She rolled around the bed from one place to another before struggling to wake up after having a sleepless night because of the absence of her uncle, Ethan.She yawned with her hands placed in between her mouths, stopping the bad breath from coming out of her mouth due to her not brushing last night. She came down from her bed and picked up her phone to check if she had any missed calls from her uncle, Ethan, but to her amazement, there wasn't a single call from him.Nadia entered the bathroom and took her brush along with her. She brushed her teeth carefully and showered quickly, and once she was done, she moisturised her skin with the perfect cream for her skin. Her mission for today was to go look for Ethan in his office with the help of the security man. That's if only he'll grant her the request to look for her uncle all by herself.“I hope it's not wha
After spending up to, like, an hour in the kitchen, Nadia was able to make something for Ethan. She made chicken and waffles for Ethan after burning the midnight data just to watch how it’s been done before she finally found an avenue to test it out today.She sniffed it to know how it smells now and if the smell is tasty enough for Evan to give it a taste. "Hmmmm.. It smells so nice and is appetising enough for the mouth to taste a bit. I believe and trust that Ethan will love this one for good.” She whispered with the little voice dancing in between her throats.Nadia hurried up and cleared the kitchen, which was heavily messed up with different plates and utensils dancing in every corner of the kitchen. She felt so happy that she was able to make breakfast for her uncle for the first time, even though she knows that he won’t be in support of that. Ethan is so rich that he employs anyone with a desired position to work for him. Starting from the garden down to the laundry, Ethan has s
Ethan stood up from the dinning and went upstairs after taking some drugs to reduce the slight headache he was feeling while he was still upstairs. He rushed upstairs to go pick up the phone so that he'll be able to follow up the contract he wanted to give Marco. As he got to the room, he searched around for his phone but it was nowhere to be seen. He carried the bed and moved the standing table bedside his bed looking for his phone yet it wasn't there at all. Suddenly, he ran downstairs to the kitchen when Nadia was busy with washing back the used plates and arranging the utensils in the right place. He kept on searching everywhere while Nadia glanced at him with a stern look. “What's the problem Uncle Ethan? Why are you behaving as if you lost something very important? ”- she stopped washing and gave all her attention to him. Ethan looked at Nadia with a furrowed brow, the facial expression of frustration was written on his face. "I can't find my phone, Nadia. I need it urgently
"Ummm... a slim, tall, fair lady with beautiful curves. I don't know her name, but that's the perfect description of how she looked."“A slim, tall, fair lady? I can't really remember if we have any staff like that. There are a lot of staff working in this bar, and from what I know and can recall, there's no one possessing those characteristics. The bartender raised his left eyebrow and answered him with a stern look.. 'But I saw her yesterday, and in all honesty, she was the only one in the bar, and she was the one that attended to me yesterday." - Ethan nodded his head positively to prove to the bartender that he came here last night.While he was still trying to figure out the best way he could convince the bartender to help him question all the staff working in the bar, A young girl passed them. She was putting on a silk brown gown with her well-polished black shoes.“Hey! Come back here, Nita." The bartender ignored Ethan, who was sitting in front of him, talking about his misplaced
“I won't watch you do that to me, you bloody sucker." Nita pushed him away from her body.“Young lady! Hand over my phone to me, and don't let me lose it on you."She walked back and forth, clapping her hands together. “Well, Mr. Ethan, you can have your phone and have it for good." She handed over his phone to him.“Wait! Did you just call me by my name? How did you get to know my name?"Ethan was terrified that someone as such knows him by his name, knowing fully well that this is his first time just knowing her.“I think my business is done here. How I got to know your name is none of your business. Take your phone and leave my presence."Nita took the phone and placed it on his chest, planning to take her leave back into the bar. Ethan pulled her back. “Who are you? I'm still surprised at how you got to know my name. Have you been stalking me?"“Hey! Young man, or whatever you are being called, Please stop holding me like this; you'll injure my skin." Nita retracted herself from his tigh
Ethan drives off to his apartment after he has secured his phone from Nita. The joy of meeting a new girl was evident on his face from the way he smiled.“Finally! Uncle Ethan, You are back. What took you so much time to get back home?” Nadia quickly ran to grab his arms as she saw him approaching the door.“Yes! I’m back, and I finally secured my phone.” His face was still basking, with smiles all over it.Nadia slightly removed her hands from him and watched him giggle out loud as he walked into the entrance of the apartment.“Something is fishy somewhere. Why is Uncle Chin filled with a smile and happiness? Did he win thelottery?” She ran after him to find out the reason behind his bright smile.He sat down on the chair and crossed his legs on his thighs, mesmerising about all that happened tonight.“Uncle, why are you so excited today?” Nadia sat down closer to him, trying to know what was behind his big smile."Well, Nadia," Uncle Chin began, still wearing his infectious smile, "let me
