"May I have a word Mr. Collins?"
Ifechukwu stopped from shutting the door to the back seat of his car where his six year old daughter was sitting and looked at the prudish lady walking towards him. Lately he had noticed her on several occasions when he had come in late to drop Udomsinachi. He has never exchanged greetings with her because somehow he has always felt as if she was judging him. 
"I feel its wrong the way you abandon this little girl in school till this time"
"Excuse me?" Ifeee said.  Those who knew him would never continue speaking when he spoke with such deadly calm or looked at them in that manner. but the little witch standing before him either pretended not to notice how pissed he was or her excuse might be that she didn't know him that well.
"I am not too far from you that you didn't hear me. I don't care why her mother doesn't live with you anymore. What I care about is the well being of my learner, Udom, and right now, I can emphatically say that she is not well taken care of considering when you pick her up after school"
Ifechukwu was flabbergasted. Who the hell was she to question the way he carried out his fatherly roles? 
"Please see to it that you improve on the caring of her before I call child services on you"
"What the hell?" Ifee exclaimed and before he could say more the witch wished him a good day and walked away.

Ifechukwu Collins was a widow who lost his wife in an auto crash.  The stress of caring for his daughter and handling his job was rubbing off on him. He was doing his very best to get by until the Supervisor at his daughter's school decided to question how he discharged his parental duties.All Rights Reserved

Destined Hearts by xxxwannabewriterxxx

Muhammad thought of Madeenah as a child, younger than his baby sister, although way more mature. She seemed to have created a bond with his daughter and that was all that came to his mind about her. Not her smooth caramel skin, or her captivating light brown eyes and neither did her sweet voice do it for him. Madeenah thought of Ya Muhammad as an arrogant and stoic person but a really good father. In truth she was terrified of him. She hated the way he would look at her, as though she was less important than him. She hated the way he never spoke unless he needed to. She hated the way his voice washed over her, making her shiver. She hated his height and how it made him tower over her small frame. She hated him but she just couldn't stop thinking about him. So what happens when the two end up being brought together by an unusual arrangement . He's older, she's younger. He has a daughter and she has barely begun life. Will he let go of the past and try to find happiness or will he drag her down with him? --------------------------------------- "Let's get married." He says with such a straight face that I feel stupid as I chuckle. "What did you just say?" I ask in disbelief. "You heard me Madeenah." He says in a gravelly tone. "Why would you want to marry me?" I shake my head. "You don't like me." "I like you well enough to be married to you." His broad shoulders shrug in his familiar black suit. What is going on with him? And what have I gotten myself into?
