PREGNANT FOR BROTHER IN LAW

33. Stay Home....

"Mum, mum, are you okay?"
I had left Vee at the penthouse. She was feeling better. I still couldn't believe the silly thing I did that night could yield so much. At least now we will have a baby to talk about. It was too much for me trying to lie to Kendra what we are expecting while it was all a coarse.

It's a weekend, but for the weekend, I don't have any time to rest because I had to focus on some business. The projects I had lying around needed to be finished before the new week begins. Vee had been in my mind lately I couldn't focus. She makes a good and bad destruction. Surprisingly, through her, I get some ideas and working on my unfinished projects, I was able to complete some before my mother rang my phone.

My secretary was not around to pick up my call. I had to do it all alone. My mother never calls unless it is urgent. The first idea that came into my mind, was that she was not feeling well and needed me to get to her.

I didn't think of another reason why she will call. She hadn't been feeling we lately. I fear her cancer is creeping back. Though she doesn't like talking about it, I am always worried about it.

I slide through the screen but all I can hear is my mother breathing up and down, then some heavy and light footsteps approaching her. She doesn't talk instead, her phone is muted. It's hard to know what is going on.

Trying to call her name, but I can't hear anything. I quickly call Mike. Jumping from my seat, I rush to the door only to be met with Mike at the elevator door.

"Can you call the main house and ask them to look after my mother, she called but her phone has been muted."

Mike quickly used the ready channel and called. It's not like mum doesn't know how to use a smartphone. She is a pro. Most of the time she helps to manage the company's social media. She lived the way Vee does the work and had asked me to recruit her but I didn't want the collision that came with Kendra.

"They said, your mum left to go to Your house, let me confirm it," said Mike while the elevator stopped on the ground floor and we took the car back to my house.

I wasn't ready to face Kendra. I didn't know why she can't accept some things. Right now it was not about her.  I tried to call her but her phone was turned off. Maybe she is still mad. I know I am doing the wrong thing but I can't help myself. Vee knows how to make someone feel comfortable. Shit, why can't I be like dad?

I still remember when he will advise me on the type of woman to date, "they will either build you or destroy you." This a simple piece of advice that I tried to follow but, I don't know who is going to build me. Maybe I am too focused on my business and I don't want to see who is going to do the work of building me up.

On a second attempt, there was no one in the house. I looked over to Mike, he was also trying his best and the second my family phone went through, he looked over at me with a sorry face, I grabbed the phone from his hands and listened through it.

"What do you mean you can't find my mother in the house, what about, Kendra, is she in the house?" I asked trying to sound calm.

I wasn't calm, the tie that Vee had helped to tie neatly on my neck was annoying me. I quickly to pulled it off and threw it on the ground. The car was too hot for me, I removed my coat and unbuttoned my shirt. Vee had done a nice job. She picked this suit from the various pile and came up with good taste but right now I was not interested in any of it. My mind was all over the place, trying to wonder where my mother would have gone to.

"Find her, use the security system, what do you mean you had a problem with them, I thought that was already fixed. NO! Fuck, you better find my mother or I will fire both of you and throw you in jail!"
