I'm pregnant again , cant say that I'm feeling fearful but I am feeling a bit afraid . My number one worry is whether I can do it or not .
It scares me , that I might not be as engaged to my child as I want to be.
Going back to work has been the most amazing thing ever , I got a few stares - obviously because of my new to the country Louis Vuitton dress - but also because of the glow that Jozea spoke about .
Ace drops his hand on my thigh as he drives . He drops constant stares to my direction with a small smile .
"I'm living my biggest and wildest dream." He finally speaks .
"I always told my mother that I'd find someone I loved . I told her that we'd have children and jobs that allow us to live a comfortable life but I always told her about the love that'll fill my home ." He says . Taking me off guard .
"I wish I could've met your mom." I say .
"She would've loved you. You know , she was just like you. She was confident , intelligent, headstrong and the most beautiful woman I'd ever laid my eyes on. Only difference is that your ass is stubborn." He says with a smile that reaches his eyes .
"I grew up in a community where marriages were arranged , based on material or physical things and not love . Our neighbors used to laugh at mum whenever she spoke about me wanting real love .
I remember that Ms Ruby wanted me to marry her daughter Anastasia. My mum rejected the proposal.
I'll never forget that day , dad was angry . Telling mum that she didnt want a good future for me . My dad was more of the traditional type too .
Raised me to be a provider , to take care of my family . Mum wanted me to be happy . Oh , I miss them so much ." He says, looking straight onto the road .
We are about five minutes away from the company .
"I remember how Mum never wanted to argue with dad infront of me . She'd give him 'the stare' and dad would immediately stay quiet . I always wanted a relationship like that." He says.
"We can work on that." I say to him .
"We are already there baby , we barely even argue . Mostly because you always wanna be right." He mumbles the last part .
"I heard that ." I says .
He chuckles and parks the car on his reserved spot .
"Lunch?" He asks .
"Thai?" I ask him after nodding .
"On you?" He asks , and after giving him one look .
"On me." He says . I smile to myself .
"Yep , see you then." I say to him , he smiles and stares at me.
"Yep , mum would have loved you . That stare was just like hers ." He says smiling .
We get into the company and work flies by . Lunch comes flying in and as we're sitting and eating , a knock sounds on the door .
"In." I simply say . Then wipe the sides of my face .
Someone I haven't seen in ages enters .
"If it isn't Bella the bitch ." I say smiling at her . The corner of her lips turn up .
"Mrs Bernett." She says nodding her head slightly , her left hand drops an envelope on the table and I notice a ring on her finger . Someone could actually stand her enough to marry her . I guess love really does exist .
