Nanny Affair

Chapter 32

Lisa heard small footsteps heading for the living room where she'd sat for almost the entire day. She had been worried. Though her and Olivia had done a good job in trying to convince Logan to take back the company, Logan had insisted on meeting face to face with his father and set some rules. Lisa had been both shocked and happy, their meeting would either end well or make the situation worse. He had left in the morning not even asking Mark to take him and he'd promised that he'd make the trip back home no matter the hour they'd complete the meeting. She had heard nothing from Logan and she was starting to get anxious, scenarios of anything that could happen between father and son. Olivia who was very close to her due date, she had been of help but recently she had excluded herself from the family drama as she was expecting her baby soon. She needed time with her husband.

Logan's mother on the other hand was hell bent of the divorce, no matter how much her husband tried to convince her otherwise. They had decided to end the marriage on a good note and Logan's mother had already moved out as the divorce was being processed. She felt sad for Roger but he had brought all of this on himself. He had decided to change at the last minute when everyone had just had enough of him. But even with that, he was holding up alright or at least he tried to show that he was okay

"Mama," Ella screamed jumping on Lisa who was lying on the couch. Ella had started calling her Mama a few days ago, Lisa hadn't known what to do. She loved that Ella saw her as her mother but she was scared that Logan would think otherwise. She was not really the mother and she had never met nor seen the woman. Logan refused to speak about her but he had reassured her that she was history and he couldn't keep dwelling on the past.

"How are you baby," She asked kissing her cheek and pulling her into a hug. The little girls arms wrapped around her and she felt content. It had been a long time before she felt so whole, she had not even realized that she had a void inside of her until she met Logan.

"It was okay, I beat up a boy at school," Ella said ever so casually. Lisa sat up with the girl in her arms and looked at her in shock. This wasn't the first time Ella had brought news like this at home. The first was creating a small table explosion in class and they kept on becoming crazy and crazy

"Ella we have talked about this, you cannot just beat up your classmates. Am I gonna be seeing your teacher tomorrow?" She asked finally

"No, he was bullying me so he got suspended and I got time out," she said. Lisa sighed in relief. She was almost running out of excuses to give to the teacher.

"Alright, that's good. But you've got to stop beating everyone who comes close to you. You don't wanna be the bully," Lisa said lifting her up in her arms and walking towards the kitchen. She made a sandwich for the little girl as they conversed about anything and everything. That helped Lisa get her mind to think about something else other than Logan.

She had received her working license a while back but she wasn't sure of when to start looking for a job. She had not talked to Logan about it but she was sure he would be supportive of course but she wanted to wait until the whole saga is done and everything is back to normal before she can start throwing in applications.

"And she gonna be big like me?" Lisa sat answering questions from Ella. Ever since she'd heard that her auntie was going to give birth she had been asking all kinds of questions about the baby and although Lisa hated to admit it, it was getting on her nerves. She just couldn't stop asking the same questions over and over. But even with that, Lisa answered them as many times as she could not wanting to anger the little bundle of joy who was sat on her lap

"Yes, she's gonna come out as small like this," Lisa showed her using her hands and Ella gasped. She had never seen a small baby before, she'd only seen them covered in lots of blankets.
"And then when she keeps on growing, she's gonna look like you...
