SONG FOR THIS BOOK
Alicia keys -blended family

     All i have ever been is your mama
     They told me  i don't really love you
     That am here for money...
     Your rich grandma couldn't stand me
     just because their chauffeurs daughter
    married their son ...
    But hey
    Even though i married your father             
    Its not  the only reason am here
    There'nothing i wont do  for love
    For us
    That's just what you do for family
    It gets harder but...
    I think you beautiful
    i think you perfect
   I know its worth it
    ❤❤❤

"Mama i want to wear this 'kong kong' " of course she does .Those have been my saturdays good morning .Ami is an early riser but as far as i can remember i never asked her to influence me,why cant she let everyone sleep in peace to whatever time.It was a weekend for Gods sake.She had stormed into my room holding high heeled shoes that am pretty sure her nanny had told her not to wear because she has  fractured her ankle wearing them .Twice.."Good Morning to you my chaperone"  i said stroking her neat hair,making her giggle."Good Morning mummy"if anything ,i had fallen in love with Ami's smile.It was contagious,warm,innocent ,lively and so wide .

"Aren't we going to see daddy today"she said making my smile fade little by little ."No baby,today we can stay in
i'll teach you something " I said waiting for the worst reaction from her "But mama we  ." "yah sweetheart i  know,There is next weekend ,we can always go .Why don't you stay with me this one saturday"i said interrupting her.

My heart was literally beating hard this time. I have never denied her this,its new to me too,i promised her this.And i rarely break promises ,'Don't make a promise you cant keep' I could hear my dad's words echo in my head. She sulked and nodded walking out with her ' kong kong' on both hands ."You can wear those,around the house"
I said hoping it would make her feel better and going back to my sleep.Yah sleep is everything, especially if you are not a boss .Am not sure about that though.

"Ma' you have a visitor"Liz said knocking on my door.It was 11 ,damn it ,my sleeping habit.I denied Ami a visit to her fathers graveyard just to lie in bed half day.Wow what legit parenting skills!

I got downstairs ,wondering why Lilian didn't call this time to say she is coming.Then i saw a woman in the living room staring at our family picture.I made my steps louder so she could notice my coming.
"Ashley "she said coming to say hi ,I smiled stretching my hand to reach hers,but instead she came hugging me making me look confused for a while ."Am Victoria Carinton and this is my son Mel"she said gesturing to a boy  who looked half the age of Ami,who was now playing with Ami at  the dinning ,I hadn't even notice him until now " Come say hi to mummy" she said ,making my eye brows rise while forcing a smile to the small boy,who didn't seem to hear what her mum said. And Carinton?was she one of RAF's cousins?
"You have a beautiful house" the woman said distracting my thoughts .

I blinked twice  "Thank you ,let me get you something ".I said heading for the kitchen .

"No ,actually am in a hurry",the woman protested ,making me notice her very long nails in red and the  long poorly drawn eye brows.I already know this woman .From her features,I could judge .

"I won't beat about the bush "she began ,clapsing her hands

"Am listening"I said narrowing my eyes ,was this some sort of family issue?
Who is this woman,that I did not like already.

"I know Rafael never told you this ,but we had a son together ,Mel is Rafael's son"

"Wait,which Rafael?" I said,my voice coming out louder than I intended.

"Rafael Carinton"

Do you ever get some news and the first reaction that comes is a laughter ,I tell you it's crazy.Its second degree of madness .

"Get out of my house", I said now standing ,I could no longer contain myself.I did not want to humiliate this woman ,just for one reason.Just for his child's sake .That was respect enough .

"I dont mean to disturb your peace but .."

"Get out"I said closing my eyes now .

I did not want to loose my shit Infront of my daughter,atleast not when am in the same room with my daughter .

So many things were going through my mind that I didn't even open my eyes to see her pick his son and leave  .

Thousand can hurt .

But not when your realise your dead husband cheated on you .Not when you realise your husband had another family.Not when you realise you had a co_wife !

I wanted to wake the dead.

The entire room was spinning.

I felt my heart burn like heat from a thousand fire.
