Chapter 10

FAITH

I go home pretty happy with my day and serene because so far my secret is still well kept, everyone will say that I should have told them the truth about my baby but no one knows how hard it is to having to find a person with whom you have shared your intimacy and who treats you like a stranger, who treats you with contempt and indifference, in addition to this this person turns out to be your boss, he is sure that he will believe me not and will certainly put me at the door, I can in no way lose my job at the moment, I need it too much and I have slobbered too much to get it so I can not risk losing it.

When I get home from the taxi I notice two silhouettes that are quite different from Leila and her darling, when did these two get back together, when I get to their level, I greet them but Leila holding me back

Leila: I officially present to you my darling, my future husband

Me: good evening sir, delighted

Him: good evening miss, I'm really delighted to meet you, your friend told me a lot about you, of course

Me: I too have heard a lot about you, and I hope you will take good care of my sister if not I intend to meet you wherever you are and I will make you your party

Well I'll let you talk quietly, good evening to you

Leila: ok, I'll be home soon, mama

We laugh together and I'm going home, when she comes back she's going to have to explain to me what's still going on between them, when I come in the first thing I do is take off my heels my feet really suffer, I take my bath and I put myself in the stove, I hear someone open the door, it's probably Leila, I start at the same time

Me: the old you and your old man I don't understand you, don't you, you were in a pose

Leila: yes, but today he called me and he apologized, he said he didn't know what got into him, and that it was enthusiasm that pushed him to say that today.

Me: Are you sure you can trust him and that he is telling you the truth?

Leila: yes I trust him don't worry I manage

Me: ok if you are sure of what he is telling you then I have nothing more to add

LEILA

I'm sure he's telling me the truth, there's no reason to lie to me, besides why is he leaving his wife for his mistress, he will have more to lose than he has gained

I am so invested in this relationship, I really want it to work, I know it's wrong to want to add to a couple already formed for years, but I have no other solution, with young people it's not possible, they think more about multiplying their conquests than about wanting to start a family, but with middle-aged men it's different, they are not afraid of commitment, and they don't only think about their mugs, so I'll stay with my sugar daddy, plus I won't be the first woman we take as a second wife, huh

I'm off to wash my hands to help Faith in the kitchen, she must be tired since she's just started work, and with her condition it's not very obvious, speaking of work she hasn't told me how she got on. past

Me: bah mama you waited for me to ask you how it went at work this morning so that you tell me

Faith: mmmhhhh…. if I tell you what happened there today you wouldn't believe me I assure you

Me: but go tell me

Faith: you know who my boss is

Me: …. no no, but once it’s not the other against Hugo it suits me, imagine a little, he will make you live hell on earth hahahhaaaa

Faith: it's not him but it's even worse

Me: you're really starting to worry me, if he talks to you now!

Faith: I met Aaron…. more like Christopher

Me: well you will decide to give me a name

Faith: I'm talking about Aaron the guy from Paris, he's my boss

Me: well that's great, you found him, you see how God does things well, so now he knows he's going to have a child I guess, how did he react

Faith: no he doesn't know….

Me: no, but you're crazy, in addition to the fact that he has the right to know that he is a father, he can offer all that is best for your baby, that's not what you want for him

Faith: if you knew how he treated me

She tells me everything that happened between them, I listen to her carefully without cutting her off when she finishes, I resume

Me: I think you should have told him what happened when he caught you throwing up in the toilet, don't be selfish my darling, this child needs his father

Faith: I'll think about it

We finish preparing, we eat together and everyone goes back to their room, the day has been long, a good night's sleep will do the trick...

Christopher

When I arrive at work this morning, my beautiful little stranger was already there, she was sitting in her office working suddenly I stop for a few minutes to admire her a little, I note that she is very beautiful this morning, she looks better than yesterday, let's say, but the little witch caught me drooling on her shit

Faith: hello sir

Me: hi, how are you?

Faith: I'm not sick, can I do something for you

Me: yes I need you in my office

When I finish talking I don't wait to wait for her to come out to me again as an answer I go to my office

Faith: can I come in

Me: yes go ahead, I plan to organize a party for my new collaborators tonight

Faith:……

Me: you said

Faith: no sir, I didn't say anything

She doesn't know that I heard her, she was complaining that it's all I know how to do, it seems, in addition to having a big mouth, she's a coward

Me: as I said I am going to organize a party for my collaborators tonight so I need you as a hostess

Faith: but sir, it's not part of my duties, and besides, it's outside working hours.

Me: don't worry, if for the money you will be well paid, at 6 p. m. James will pick you up, good you can have

Faith: no, but you're not waiting for my opinion

Me: nô see you tonight….

On this she leaves without adding anything more, I know that she is angry even if she tries to hide it, which frankly makes me laugh and I really enjoy myself, she is really not at the end of her troubles, she is not pay for all the frustration she has caused me over the past few months…..
