I miss the days I could go out, be crazy and just have fun, days no one cared who Gigi was, when no paparazzi tried to be the first to unveil my identity. Some how word for out that the mysterious CEO is around. My being me, I used the main gate and called a taxi, leaving my car and the nosey men and women waiting at the gate.
“are you sure this is the right address? “
The driver asked for the thousandth time. I hate being rude but some people just ask for it, I’m a grown ass woman, you’d think I know where my house is at.
“do me a favour and do your job... As long as I’m capable of paying, you should not be a detective “
“sorry ma’am, it’s just, that’s the richest part of town, taxis rarely ever visit.”
“it’s alright, just had a long day “
I learnt silence reign as he drove into the estate. The gate was opened without questions leading to a raised eyebrow from the driver.
“welcome home ma’am. “
The gate keeper said smiling at me. All my employees love me, so ain’t no surprise. Guess I can be really nice. I take out my normal card and pay the driver, I think he saw the black card but didn’t say a word. After giving a good tip, I go to open the door but is instead opened by Lilly.
“thanks Sis, not to be rude but, what are you doing home “ I ask eyeing her carefully.
“I missed my babies. And by the way, what are Mr and Mrs Black doing in your house? “
“they’re here already, oh no!” I panicked, they might have seen the kids. Reading my mind, she smiles.
“they haven’t met the kids yet, Martha made sure of it. But you have a lot of explaining to do. Ryan is coming for the weekend too, I’ll leave you to whatever is going on “
She said, eyeing me carefully before she left. They haven’t met the, good, I still have control over the situation.
I get into the house and head over to the living room where the older couple is sitted.
“I’m, hi guys” I say nervously while approaching them. In as much as I love them like my parents, I need to play my cards right.
“oh my word, my baby is here “ Trish says with tears in her eyes, the minute I reach her arms we both broke down, Chris’ father joined the hug holding us both and leading us to the seats.
“how have you been love? “ Dominic asks, while still holding on to us.
“I have been alright, more than OK I guess” I say feeling guilty about not reaching out despite my previous condition
“you never once reached out, I tried finding you but no luck. I thought the worst, we all did! “ Trish says accusingly, tears still on her eyes, the sadness, happiness, relief all mixed up but showing.
“I’m sorry mama, I really am, I wish it was different...” she cuts me off before I finish
“I miss hearing you call me that.” She says with a small smile
“why did it take you thus long to reach out “ Dominic who had been quiet all the while asked. He always somehow knew when I’m holding back and worse when I’m lying.
“well, after signing the papers, I left for home, I went to Kenya cause I needed a fresh start...” they listened without interruption from starting a business and it’s success in months, memory loss, but I omitted the part about having quadruplets.
“wow, you’re something. Everything you touch turns gold. “ Dad complemented
“I need show you something, but promise you’ll be quiet “
I asked them as they chorus, “promise”
I led them upstairs in a comfortable silence ‘here goes’ I mumbled before I opened the door and motioned them in.
“are these..?” She asked immediately we got in, I was surprised they had been quietly playing, seemingly ok.
“Mama, papa, meet your grandkids and the reason I lost my memory. It was worth it” that’s all I said before hell broke loose when my four munchkins heard my voice.
They instantly clicked with their grandparents which was something I didn’t see coming. They are super choosy on who touches them. Especially Ray.
Martha left to start on dinner after introductions.
“does he know? “ Papa asked eyeing me warily.
“yeah, about that, he knows everything, cause I’m they ‘mysterious’ CEO who’s partnering with the Black group “
“let me guess, my idiot of a son took the wrong approach” Trish asked sadly
“he wants them from me, hell do anything including going to court “ I answered while pretending to break down, I know I’ll win but o need these two. I’ll never feel guilty for protecting my children.
“well, we just need to make sure he learns a good lesson.” Dominic said with a smirk.
This is too easy “thanks Dad, but I don’t know any lawyers who’d willingly fight on my behalf! No one wants to go against him” I said exasperated.
“well, I’ll just have to get you his lawyer, after all. I’ll be taking care of this “ he lifted his head in assurance then went ahead to play with the girls and Trish with the boys.
Ok Christian Black. Let the games begin.
