Amy sat in one of the most luxurious club until it was night when the club always gets busy, she had two bottle of drinks before her and she was seriously drowning herself in her sorrow. For the past three years of the marriage, she had been entirely faithful to that bastard, she wouldn't even give any other man a chance to flirt with her, speakless of cheating on him. She trusted him so badly yet he broke her heart like it was nothing.
The more she drunk, the more she hoped that she forgot her sorrow but the drink seemed not to be helping as the naked image of Joan and Callan kept playing in her head.
She stood angrily all of a sudden and looked around at the people dancing in the club. She thought of picking one random gigolo that she could have a night stand with. After all, she was now divorced and single again.
She saw a tall man entering a room and she ran quickly towards there immediately. Before the door could close, she had walked in.
She leaned on the man at once and used her left hand to shut the door behind them. In a quick succession, her mouth was devouring the man's lips, and it took a while before the man's lips responded.
The moment grew into an intimate session that she pulled off her cloth so quickly, she helped the man pull off his shirt and in a jiffy, she was under the man on the bed, moaning out loud as he thrusted deep inside of her.
It was an enjoyable and exhausting moment for the duo as it lasted for half an hour, when they both finally came to satisfaction, they fell to the bed and slept.
Amy woke a few hours later and saw the man sleeping in the dark room. The light of the room was yet to be switched on when she barged in and started kissing the man few hours ago.
"This gigolo is so good," Amy mumbled and brought out a few dollar notes from her purse then placed it on the man's palm. Although he was sleeping, she wouldn't cheat him by leaving without paying.
She then walked away from the room carefully, not wanting to awake the man.
Amy left NorthHill and took a train to a small city where she intended to live a simple life. Living in her city, NorthHill will only cause her more trauma. Callan may be impossible to avoid as he was a very powerful man and since she had dared to divorce him, he might want to frustrate her. So it was better for her to come over here and start a new life.
Amy became very suspicious of herself few weeks later when she started having morning sickness. Whenever she wanted to think that it may be sign of pregnancy, she will remind herself that she was with Callan for three years and never conceived. She was barren and as Callan said, that was her fate. Although she wished to have a child and wished to have that motherly feeling but it seemed she wasn't blessed with that.
She received the greatest shock of her life when she visited the hospital and it was said to her that she was three weeks pregnant. How could that be possible? She was overjoyed and over the months, her belly was growing bigger than normal and it was getting her worried that she even wondered if she was actually pregnant with a child cause why would her stomach be protruding larger than normal.
Nine months later, Amy delivered at the hospital. It was a stressful one, she knew that she was releasing some things one after the other but even her was doubting if those were babies.
She shut her eyes and prayed that what came out of her will be a child, she opened her eyes a few seconds later and saw two doctors and four female nurses crowding the entire room. Each of them with a new born baby, they all had smile on their faces.
She blinked and asked, she didn't know maybe her question was foolish but she managed to ask, "sorry, are these my babies?"
"Yes," everyone answered with happiness in the room. Amy didn't believe her ear and thought that she may be dreaming. How is it possible for a barren like her to have all these babies?
Then she counted them, " one, two, three, four five..." she paused the counting and rubbed her face, "six"
"Six babies?" She asked.
"Yes, congratulations!" everyone in the room started congratulating her. Tears of joy rushed down her cheek, her two palms landed on her soft cheek slowly.
She was so happy and she thanked her God for blessing her these much. She derived strength from the good news and sat upright, "let me have them?" She said happily and the baby was given to her one after the other. She was so happy to see the cute babies, she blessed them and kissed them all in the forehead.
Just few months back, she experienced the worst day of her life but today, she was experiencing the best day of her life.
**********
Six years later, Amy sat on a long wooden stool and called, "Elijah," "Moses," "Elisha!"
Three cute boys ran towards her very quickly, they all had a bright smile on their faces and although their clothes were not the expensive ones, they looked outstandingly handsome, coupled with the fact that the three boys looked identical.
"Come here," Amy gestured for them to come closer and they stood around her. She ruffled their hair happily and said," call your sisters here."
"Angel!" Elijah called.
"Queen," Elisha shouted.
"Debby," Moses called.
Three adorable girls soon appeared, they had long hair and their hairstyle was all the same, they were slim and looked too gorgeous to behold coupled with the fact that they were identical.
Over the years, Amy had trained her children as much as she could and she spent quality time with them. They joked most times and times when there were need to rebuke them for doing something wrong, she did it too. The love between her and the six kids was extraordinary strong.
There was no one to tell her well-done for going through the stress of raising up six kids for six years. It was such a great task.
Amy left the stool and sat on the grassy ground while the children sat around her in circles, "we would be leaving for NorthHill tomorrow."
"Why mum?" Elijah asked immediately when Amy finished speaking.
"The schools here are not of high standard, although the environment is peaceful but I want you all to enjoy a better education and live in the civilized world," Amy said.
"Mum, didn't you say we can't go to NorthHill cause some wicked people are there?" Moses questioned.
The children had once asked Amy why they were staying in the village and she had told them then that she actually used to live in NorthHill but came to hide here cause of some wicked people who were trying to hurt her.
"Won't those wicked people hurt you, mum?" Angel asked with her tiny and angelic voice.
Amy smiled, "I have six of you around me and you think anyone can hurt me?"
Elijah rolled his sleeve and showed his muscle then said," That's right, see my muscle, whoever tries to hurt mum will get a punch in the face."
"Yes, let's go to NorthHill, we will not let anyone bully mum," Elisha stood and threw his two hands in the air," I'm so powerful, whoever wants to hurt mum must go through me first."
"Yes, didn't mum say she named us Elijah, Elisha and Moses cause she believes we are powerful boys? Mum, don't worry, we will be right beside you always. Those wicked people dared not to hurt you." Moses added.
The three girls watched and just nodded, although they were of the same age as the boys, they weren't as physically strong as the boys but they felt secured around the boys. In fact, in the city, no one dared to hurt the three girls cause they knew how protective their brothers were.
"Yes, I trust Elijah, Moses and Elisha, they won't let any one of us get hurt," Queen said. Debby was the quiet one and was just confident that they could go back to NorthHill and no one will be able to hurt them.
Amy was happy at her little children display of power.
"Mum, we will get to see dad too, right?" Elisha asked.
The children set their attention even more on Amy. Amy had once told them that their father was in NorthHill but even her, can not recognize him plus it's been six years and NorthHill was a big city, she doubts if she can ever meet their father again, especially seeing that he was just a gigolo.
But she didn't want the children to feel hopeless about meeting their father so she answered, "yes."
The children jumped up for Joy and began to rejoice. They were now more willing to go to NorthHill the following day, hoping that they would get to meet their dad that they had been longing to meet all their life.
Amy eventually returned to NorthHill and she lodged in a two bedroom apartment. That was what she could afford at the moment. In fact, getting that apartment cost almost all the money she had been saving in her six years' work at the small city she had newly come from. Since she had her degree, it shouldn't take her much effort to get a work here in NorthHill. Even if she met Callan by chance now, six years were enough time for her not to be affected by what had happened in the past between them. There could be an high chance that he had already got married to his secretary. Amy ignored the thought about Callan and began to search for job opportunities online. She applied to as many company as she could. She didn't want her children to have to starve for any reason, feeding six children at a time will sure cost a lot plus she assured them a better education here so she has to get them into a school as fast as she could. When it was evening of the following day, she got an offer
Amy curled her two legs up on her bed and cried, she was sad and embarrassed after what happened today. Firstly she lost her job and secondly, she was thrown out of the man's presence. Amy disliked the man, and she knew he was an arrogant man. How dare she to challenge the most powerful man in NorthHill? Was she drunk? Where could she get a job now? All the companies she sent offer to were not get back to her. The door opened all of a sudden and Angel appeared, "mum!" She ran towards Amy before she could even finish cleaning her tears. She doesn't like to let the children see her crying. She believed that it will make them troubled, she eventually cleaned up all her tears and smiled. Angel asked with a troubled look," mum, what's wrong?" "Nothing at all, I'm just happy to have you all around me," Amy lied. "But we are never absent from you," Angel said. Before Amy could say another word, Queen and Debby walked in and climbed on the bed. Seeing their faces made Amy really h
While Amy was heading home, she realized that she had not got her kids any surprise gifts. They all understood her financial state and had never disturbed her for gifts. But today, she decided to surprise them. For Abe, she didn't want to think about him. He's not the CEO, then there is nothing that he could do to her. She was not scared of him at all, instead, she detest him for the kind of man he already projected himself to be. How can he met someone for the first time and he immediately showing her clear sign of lust and shows how irresponsible he was? Amy stopped by at the mall and as soon she walked in, she saw a slap land an an old man's cheek. "What!" She exclaimed. She walked towards the crowds of people gathered around there and smuggled herself through the crowd until she got to where the old man was. The burly man who slapped the old man was dressed in suit and there were other men in suit around there. Amy challenged him," how dare you slap this old man? Did you
Both of them were surprised, they never expected to meet again expecially not in a situation like this. Amy's heart began to thump and she wished the land could swallow her up at this moment. This man had warned her not to show up before him again and that the next time she did, he would destroy her. Why was fate trying to punish her by bringing her to the attention of this man? "You dared to appear before me again, you cunny woman," the most powerful man in NorthHill, Broderick Alessandro, said with a dangerous look. Amy's mouth shiver on its own and she shook her head, "I... I never knew that you were the CEO, sir. I..." She swallowed hardly, "I...never knew." Broderick didn't believe in her at all. There was no one who didn't know that the CEO of Alessandro's corporation was him. This woman even had the gut to lie to his face. He stood from his seat and once Amy saw him stand to his feet, her heart thumped in fear and she stood still, thinking should she run away? Oh gosh
"Please! I wasn't appearing before you on purpose and I apologize sincerely for that night, please forgive me," she pleaded.There was a long moment of silence, anyone close to Amy at this time would literally hear her heartbeat. It was thumping so heavily that it felt like her heart was ripping apart. She didn't want this fierce looking man to pounce on her.If he pounced in her, what could she do? She started it six years ago by pouncing on him, she hoped earnestly that he would change his mind. She just wanted to leave this office and run as fast as her leg could take her from this company.He walked towards her then suddenly turned to his seat and sat, "leave."Leave? Amy thought that she probably didn't hear the right word. Did he say 'leave?' He was telling her to leave?She began to walk out slowly hoping that she was acting out on the right word, she twisted the knob and the door gave way.Oh her g
Amy wondered who could be knocking, she was not expecting any visitor and had not made any friend in this neighborhood. She stood nevertheless and walked towards the door, when she opened it, she saw a tall woman standing by the door."Amy!" The woman screamed.Amy furrowed her brow when she eventually recognized whom the woman was," Leola!"The two women hugged themselves dearly and Amy quickly let her in, Leola was Amy's roommate in the university. Through out her four years in the university, they both lived in the same room but they lost contact somehow after graduating from the university."How did you get to know where I stay?" Amy asked, still mesmerizing in the happiness that she met her old friend again."I didn't, I came here to apologize for what my son did, he didn't allow his friends play ball with him and I think that's selfish," she said," wait, are the three boys yours?""Yes, they are," Am
"Please, spare me this time," Amy pleaded even further. Eventhough she knew that pleading at this moment was too risky but if she agreed to do this, he would confirm his wrong perception of her. She was never that type of woman, a slut, a prostitute, that wasn't her.His phone rang at that moment, his attention then drifted from Amy who was kneeling before him and fell on the phone that was ringing. He took one more look at Amy and then walked over to his phone.He picked it and seeing whom the caller ID was, he sat and answered it, the caller was the only one who can have the gut to call him at this hour."Hello son, " the voice of an elderly woman came through.He didn't want to have conversation with his mother before a stranger, "out!" He declared and Amy stood quickly. The call saved her, she quickly walked out.Oh gosh! A narrow escape again! She had become so emotionally destabilized that she couldn't stay anoth
Amy wanted to scream but the hand covered her mouth in a quick pace, she calmed and tried to look at the person's face, seeing that this person was Callan, she pushed him away angrily, "why did you drawl me here?" She walked out of the dark space and shot him a disgusting look."Don't pretend like you don't miss me," Callan smirked."Disgusting. After six years, did you still think I'll not have get over what happened?" She asked."It's not my fault that you are barren," Carren scoffed," and...your pretense about Broderick being your hubby is just a joke, you think I don't know? Broderick and I are childhood friends and we use to be best of friends but over the years, we have grown apart and are not in good terms anymore. Nevertheless, I still know many things about him. You of all people can never be Broderick's taste," Callan said."Either I'm his taste or not, can I know why you are concerned? You are with your sec
