053 Her parents advice
Ava
I stormed into my office feeling so angry, how dare he try the pity card on me? I sat on my seat burning in rage
“That was harsh Ava” Ri spoke up adding to my anger,
“Excuse me?”
“Come on Ava, there are so many ways to reject his advances instead of thrashing the flower”
“Ri are you siding with Nicklaus now, just because he put up that shred?”
“Come on baby girl all I’m saying is people were recording I think that attitude was a little bit harsh and don’t you think he looked sincere today”
“And why should I care?”
“Maybe if you think about your kids, and let go off the past just for the kids, I mean you know how they started asking of a father recently right?”
“And how do I make all of you understand that I don’t need him nor anyone in my life don’t you get?!” I screamed in anger banging heavily on the table
“Ava! What has come over you? Why can’t you see reasons you’re becoming selfish ”
“Excuse me?” I looked at Ri angrily,
“I’m sorry I don’t mean to say that”
“Just leave….”
“Ava…..”
“Leave!” I said harshly sitting down and swinging my chair around backing her. Her footsteps faded away but almost immediately the door opened
“Rihanna I thought I told you to leave!” I yelled without turning back
“Your coffee” Came Nicklaus calm voice
“Go make another one” I ordered harshly without turning around
“But you haven’t even tasted this”
“I said go make another one!” I lashed angrily turning to face him, and was surprised to see his white shirt all dirty
“What happened to your shirt?”
“It’s nothing, I’ll make another coffee” He said and turned to leave
“Take a step and kiss your job good bye” He halted on his step immediately
“Now for the last time, what happened to your shirt?”
“I…. I…..”
“Speak Nicklaus Michaelson”
“I fell while rushing to get your coffee” He muttered slowly, I sighed and closed my eyes, what’s all of this feelings
“Get out I don’t need it anymore coffee”
“I can make another one for you” He said immediately, but I lost my appetite already
“Your appearance disgust me, how can I drink from a dirty being?”
I watched his expression turned sour,
“I plan on changing my cloth after serving you coffee Ava, I’m not a dirty being and you know that”
“Ohhh so tell me a clean man that cheats when he has a wife at home, he treated his wife like a garbage and adored his side piece, only for his precious side pieces to leave him at trying times, and even steal from him”
“I regret my past, I hated myself Ava believed me, I punished myself too. I was cripple for those four years, I wanted to feel all the pains I caused you Ava, and trust me it wasn’t easy for me too. I gain back my will to live when you returned that was why I accepted to get a surgery, I wanted to be better to you and our kids, I admit I’m not the best father, but I’m willing to learn, I’m sorry Ava I’m only but human”
“Well it’s too late Nicklaus my heart is so hard and locked up I don’t feel emotions anymore so please leave”
“Would a day come when you’ll finally forgive me?”
“That day will never come, not even in my grave”
“Why did you change so much Ava, you changed a lot”
“All thanks to you mr Michaelson, you helped me a lot and I wouldn’t be here without you so thanks”
“Now get out of my office Nicklaus”
He didn’t say anything, he left after he dropped the coffee on my table,
Why are they all making it seem like I’m the bad person, I was the one that suffered, he mistreated me, I nearly lost myself trying to love him, and now they’re all saying I should forgive him thinking it’s that easy, I was the one that suffered can’t they see!? I’m only trying to protect myself and my kids, can they not see that too? I don’t want a third party in our lives is that so hard for them to understand?
After work I drove to my parents house,
“Mumy!” My biys screamed immediately they saw me, they all came and hugged me including Xacky
“I missed you mumy” My little Xacky pouted surely,
“Miss you too baby”
“How are you doing mumy” Xavier asked
“I’m fine my prince charming” I smile caresing his hair
“You don’t look good mumy are you having a bad day at work?” Xander asked
“Oh no darling it’s just stress” I replied and peck his cheeks
“Mumy I want my own kiss too” Xacky pouted cutely and everybody burst out laughing, I bent slowly and kiss my cute baby on the cheek
“They are so adorable” My mum smiled admiring her grandkids,
If only I could give my boys what they want, but no I can’t, I don’t want anything to happen to my babies and besides I can’t trust that man anymore not after the trauma he put me through.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
I want to give my kids my all, I can even give them the whole world but not with Nicklaus
I felt a tear drop in my palm,
“Mum you’re crying” Xander said calmly
“Oh no baby I’m not to okay?”
“Come mumy” He motioned for me to bend to his level and I did
“Don’t cry anymore, we got you right brothers?” He asked turning to his brothers and they nodded there heads together, Xander wiped my tears with his tiny hands,
“Mum you’re sleeping with us today okay” Xavier said
“Okay my angels, come here you all” Tgey ran into my arms and I hugged them so tight while my parents stood aside smiling .
“Alright boys go play now, we want to talk with your mother in private” My dad said and they all ran upstairs
“Ava dear we saw the news”
“What mum?” I asked sitting on the couch
“What you did to Nicklaus in the morning, it was rude Ava”
“Can we not talk about this please”
“Baby girl your mother is right, don’t you think it’s high time you forgive him” Dad added
I look at both of my parents and sighed,
“I’m going upstairs” I stood up and left them hanging.
