Chapter 141 Sub 27

What to come!

The consistent ring from our cell phones awaken our deep slumber, the peace we obtained within hours was heaven and priceless. I placed a soft swift  kiss on her forehead made her blush as she slowly opened her eyes. She rose up and asked

  "For how long have we been sleeping?"

  "We just got to find out!" I stretched my arm to grab my phone. It was 28 minutes past 12am.

  "12:48!" I snapped

  "Oh shit baby, i've got a meeting with GlamSkin's!"

  "Really?! Hours earlier, you tried to take your life..." I reminded sarcastically

  "Jeez Jordan, i thought we were never gonna fix us..dummy!" She added defensively then i laughed.

  "I told you countlessly but you never believed!" I teased as we laughed. We struggled to dress up as fast as we could then i ended up at the driver's seat while Gia struggled to dress up. Women would always have a way to stay a minute behind. I started the car while she tried to reach her clients to perhaps give an authentic reason to delay. My parents and friends had longed tried to reach me but i had no clue. Minutes later after a speedy drive, we entered the mansion. To my shock, my parents, my friends and their respective wives, the house servants stood abreast staring at us in disbelief.

  "Really?" Mother blurted, before a word was uttered she had thrown a slap on my face. I was used to it but this was a bit different. Father cringed comfortably crossing his legs using his gadget. Undeniably, i saw their thousands missed calls but i didn't return them simply because we were driving back home.

  "Mama? Dada? I am-- We are sorry for taking so long, we were..." I began still trying to find the right words.

  "What ever you have to say is a blunder! We were worried sick! Can you not see everyone out here for your ungrateful ass? You were too busy to return our calls or texts...do you know how worried we were? We concluded you to have died..." Mother cautioned

  "Well babe, i didn't think that he'd be dead...like, how can he die when he's got Gianna beside him?! She's the damn antidote to his infection!" Father added sarcastically. I could hear Lamar and Jeff laugh out hysterically aside Riley and Zoe who smiled to it. Mother shrugged because his response was really vulgar.

  "Jamal, this is not funny! I simply thought i lost him..could you find another Kareem out there?" She reminded

  "I'm still alive, mother!" Yeesha snapped. That was when i figured out that he had been lying on the couch covered with a blanket. I smiled. I had no clue that she was here, very affectionate.

  "Mother! We're really sorry for acting negligent! Please, you have nothing to worry about...we are fine!" Gianna assured

 "We?" Mother scoffed leaning on father's chest, always intimidating me emotionally. "The last time you called was a 'I'm done with this marriage..' thing so what changed?" Mother pointed out. Gia and i glanced at each other while my friends and wives excused themselves insisting on the poolside instead. The house servants left as well, Jane had secretly given a thumbs up, she figured it out.

Jeff and Lamar gave me a 'you have alot to explain in details' look, i nodded lightly in agreement. Gia and i sat abreast holding hands. Father's intense gaze wouldn't stop pricking our skins.

  "Ah hah! Babe can you not also see the reality now, they've made up. You don't have to worry, just like my Gia has mentioned. These kids are sole problems, they'd sort themselves out! I don't care if they die 'coz we've got Yeesha!" He snapped. That statement was intended to attack us, there was nothing i could say just yet.

  "C'mon Dad, that's not fair. You can't wish death on us!" I cautioned defensively

  "And i just did Kareem, what will happen next!" This time he sounded a bit serious. I turned away.

  "Ok! Where were y'all at? You got us really worried, Jane narrated a whole chapter!" Yeesha asked

  "Obviously making up and making love." Father snapped, we turned to him. He was right but the context was a little too direct and unnecessary.  "You can ask him if i'm telling a lie!" Father urged, he was confident yet right.

  "Father, you're unbelievable right now!" Gia blurted in slight shyness.

  "Yes Dad, we did all that. Made up and made love!" I added sarcastically.

  "Exactly!" Father snapped still unbordered.

  "Can y'all grow up? There's a reason why we've got private lives huh?" Mother cautioned, we ended up laughing. I briefly explained the whole drama to them and we got better. 

Gia hurried to meet her friends while i sided with mine. They couldn't stop insisting that i tell them everything and that was exactly what i did, narrate the whole story in details. 

  "You're such a jerk, Kareem! Y'all are crazy...if only i had known, i wouldn't have wasted so much energy texting, calling or driving down here." Jeff said

  "For real! I was in the middle of something and thanks to your sheer madness!" Lamar added

They were pissed but i was excited over their concern, i appreciated it to the latter. I promised them a fun time out instead.

Several weeks on,

I got in place the right things including Tiana going to prison for deformation of character too. She was only overridden by what i assume as jealouy and envy. So many times i pay so much respect to the day Gia and i finally put away our sentiments to come into a mutual agreement established on love.. Timmy has been with my parents over months now and then i never bothered to bring him home simply because i felt i wasn't still ready.

  "I think that we should bring him home, he's only a little boy baby, imagine your life without a father or even a mother." Gia cautioned while she was preparing for work. I was moved a bit

  "How can i imagine when i've never been there?" I shrugged

  "How would you know?! You've never been homeless anyways!"

   "I just don't think i'd be a good father! Im not ready to be one." I added heartily. She turned to face me with a slight disappointment.

  "That's so childish if you ask me! And could it be that when i eventually get pregnant, you'd never try to be a good father?" She asked.

  "Of course i would!" I snapped "Its my child remember?!"

  "That's what I'm talking about, your selfishness." She got tensed, that was unnecessary to me.

  "Why are you worked up! Its just a boy..." I added

  "We'll bring him home tonight. You'd have to prove to me that you'd be a good father. There's no harm in practicing on your first son!" She added. She mentioned that easily that i began to wonder if she felt some type of way, people can not always be like me. If Gia had gotten over such delusions then why couldn't i, i cautioned myself. 

  "No, i won't!" I snapped

  "You will! I want him around...we could at least try to do something good!" She added. I reasoned, i can't afford messing up my life. 

  "Jordan?" She called out very coldly, she placed her right hand on her on her forehead. 

  "Are you ok?" I asked.

  "I feel awful right now...i really can't explain! I feel giddy!" She said. I hopped down from the bed running towards her. I held her arms gently and the next thing, she passed out. I was distressed and petrified. I lifted her up then placed her gently on the bed, i instantly dialed the doctor.

Minutes later,

 The doctor had examined her and was ready to leave. He didn't look disappointed yet didn't look overly happy, so i wondered what he had to say. I was sitting right next to her sleeping, placing my hand on hers.

  "Mr Jordan!" He called out  abruptly snapping me out of my thoughts. 

  "Is she getting any better?" I asked politely

  "Way better than you think but she needs to rest, she's been stressed. She should as well avoid strenuous jobs and most importantly there's something you'd love to hear. I bet you!" He smiled broadly

  "You could hit the point!" I snapped cringing.

  "Your wife is three months, two weeks pregnant!" He blurted. The hairs only skin sprouted as well as goosebumps too.

  "No way!" 

  "Of course. You're indeed fortunate this time. Didn't i tell you that you'd be fortunate?!" He reminded and i was elated that Gia was finally pregnant. I suddenly realized that my skeptical feelings were really out of absurdity. The doctor left after a forceful hug i gladly Initiated.

Gia opened her eyes then i engulfed her with the warmest hug i could offer. She was confused at my sudden actions. She sat upright then asked

  "Baby, what's up? Why are you hugging me real tight! You can be such a teaser, darling!" She teased snuggling my nose lightly.

  "Why didn't you tell me that you were pregnant?"

  "I was making sure that i don't pull your legs anymore. It really hurts to hope for something and end up not getting it. I was really ignorant you know!" She explained

  "Now, look at who's the teaser!" I grabbed on her charming lips without being told. "You've gone past weeks, our child is three months old babe, do you know what this is?" I explained excitedly, he beautiful smiles placed me above the clouds. "We've never gotten this far!"

I kissed her after every single word she uttered, it was absurd to her but not to me, it made me better. I called my mother without thinking twice to tell her about our new child who's coming to stay, my friends were not exempted too; they were one of the reasons we believed in being fortunate. Gianna and i sorted a couple of names be it male or female but father had long predicted the child's gender to be a boy, eventually; he said that our boy's name would be named after my grandfather, Khaleed. Gia and i agreed that.

My life became complete the moment i tried to give not just Gia a chance but myself a chance. Timmy and i tried to bond regardless, i wouldn't say i was perfect but i made him happy most importantly. 

Having an additional boy wouldn't be a bad idea, i'd only brace up for the worse, boys could act funny sometimes but they'd always keep the legacy going. My father made my wish come through, he handed the KHALEEFA's Industry to me, i was in full custody of it but i suggested that Yeesha take part in running the industry not Clinton. I preferred my baby sister rather than someone else. Power intoxicates. I noticed such from Clinton's exorbitance, why tempt feeble mind?! My saying anyways.

Past 8pm,

I sighted  Gia who was patiently waiting for me to get out of the shower, she was wearing a really sassy red lingerie and heels with her legs crossed yet smirking. She hopped down from the bed then went over to the switch on the wall, she turned off the lights then turned on the red ones. She stood before me staring at me intensely. She dragged a chair then pushed me to sit which made me fall abruptly on it this is torture; i whispered to myself. 

She walked around the pole stylishly captivating my eyes, i got a pole fixed in our bedroom but she's never used it, this day was different. She swayed and swung around it regardless like the first day i saw her, after a few moves, she came forth. She leaned over, she was like a goddess at night. No man would resist a delicate beauty.

  "How about you ride me like a mustang, prove your stallion strength to beat mine!" She whispered in my ears. I grabbed her arm when she turned to leave, i pushed her to the bed as well, not to hurt her yet abruptly, she tried to keep a stern face. That's how i like my woman to be, confident.

  "You want a ride huh? Watch me!" I accepted her challenge.

Well, this is my last puzzle. What else? I have a complete life. 

Whatever the crime of someone, love and respect submerged. Exactly, what Gia and i accomplished.
