She is already thinking of how to babysit. "Is my wife alright" Mr Uba asked immediately the doctor came out "Yes, she is, there was no complications, she gave birth to a baby boy" she said, and Mr Uba smiled couldn't believe his ears, its just too sweet "Can I go see her now" he asked, and he got a positive answer, so he took Amara with her while the two women follows grinning from ear to ear.            Mirabel is with the child when the entered, the sight warmed Mr Uba's heart, he never imagined that he could have this joy again "I have a baby brother" Amara said and took the baby from her mom, with the help of her grandmother "Yes dear ...

Mirabel's only problem is her husband, its like taking care of a grown baby, I guess that's cause he loves her that much.            She is heavy and due, she is resting on the bed, but hardly a rest cause of the noise Amara and her husband is making playing hide and sick, when she think she can take it anymore she walked downstairs, and she have beem feeling some contractions since morning.

"Am considered the luckiest man alive, cause for the second time in a lifetime I found love, a fleet considered impossible. I tell you no matter how much fate try to keep us apart, am willing to try harder to keep us together" she said and got on his kneel. It warmed Mirabel's heart, though knowing what he is about to do its still made her nervous "I know I should have did it in a more romantic way, but I have been varying this ring for the past 2 months waiting for the chance, and with your recent attitude you left me no choice" he said, Amara don't really understand the situation for no matter how smart she is, she is still a kid "So will you marry me" he asked, knowing she already gave her the answer the first day they made love, but he need to officially hear it, not just through gestures "You are late" she said and ...

Chapter 47 "Amara" she called, Amara smiled at her, it warmed her heart and she realized how she miss her and how she have been so selfish and self centered "Your mom let me in" she said and sat on her bed beside her. Mirabel couldn't control her emotions so she drew her close and hugged her, the hug was for Amara but for Mirabel, she needed it "Am sorry" she said after the hug, Amara just nodded "My dad said, as a human being, we all have an obstacle, a cross to bear, so what will be of me if my role model was too weak to bear her cross" Amara said giving her quizzical look. Mirabel marvelled at the wisdom of the little girl, so it left her speechless. Misreading her silent Amara went on talking "You know, the word mom have always felt foreign to me, even when I talk about my mother I don't call her mom, but with you, I know it will easily leave my lips and not feel like an alien language if I call you that" she said and l...

Chapter 46               Mirabel became a walking dead after her fathers death, it devastated her mother but she took it better than Mirabel, she is gathering herself piece by piece, but Mirabel have the guilt that things wouldn't have been like this is she did it differently.  Its been more than a month since the incident and her father have been buried she still not over it, she is avoiding everybody including Mr Uba, and its hurts him more than he could possibly imagine. Amanda committed suicide in the prison by biting off her tongue, she bled to death before being sentenced. "Why do you avoid Mr Uba" her mother asked when she came into Mirabel room, she don't want to force her daughter so whenever Mr Uba comes she kindly ask him to leave "Nothing" she answered reluctantly "You know you are punishing the young man by denying you both your happiness" her mother said and she remembers Mr Uba's word 'in your anger you might be holding ...

Chapter 45              She rushed quickly to her father side, he is now lying in pool of blood gasping for air, she held him as tears ran down her cheek "What have I done" she said, she took her phone and dial Mr Uba number, its normal that in our time of distress we call who we rely on the most, and for Mirabel its Mr Uba. "Hello stranger" he said as he picked up "Come quick my dad have been shot" she said between tears, and all playfulness left Mr Uba voice "Where are you at" he asked "At home" she answered wiping her tears "I will be there" he said cutting the call, she went back to her dad to put pressure on the blood "Its my fault, I should have been more careful" she said, "No dear, its not" her father said, and it was unexpected but good from her side of view "am sorry for leaving your mother and you" tears left his eyes, he is in pain its written on his face "We forgive you...

Chapter 44            She was thinking of Mr Uba and how she is leaving him just like his first wife, she never wanted this but its like that's what fate want. Instead of hearing the gunshot she heard the door squeak opened she now opened her eyes to see her father walked in "Stop there" Amanda said pointing the gun at him, his first reaction is to look over to his daughter, he felt relieve that is still unharm. Amanda is now nervous that her plan is not going as planned "Go over to your daughter" she ordered "No" he said firmly, Chief Ifeanyi have always been the stubborn type "don't think I will make it easy for you" he said and his daughter marvelled at his courage "We are apart, so it will take you time to shot me and shoot her" he said masking his nervousness with a relaxed look "Shoot  her, I will get to you before you shoot  me, shoot me she will get to you before you shoot her" he said and his words gave ...

Chapter 43 "Amanda?" She asked, she actually remembers her, she was jealous when the first met and Amanda was Mr Uba date, she asked later and found oyput nothing was between them, they just sort of work together "Yes" she said with a kind smile that hid her serpent heart so well "am surprise you recognized me" she said and Mirabel gave a giggle "You are a pretty lady so it kind of hard to forget someone like you" she said, though Amanda is pretty but that's not the reason she remembered her "Can I come in" she asked and Mirabel let her in, she wondered why she is here, maybe, Mr Uba sent her here for something "Nice home you have here" she said looking around "Thanks" she said, and eager to hear what she came for "Where is everybody" she asked "Am alone at home" she answered then immediately had this gut feeling that she shouldn't have answered that "so to what do I owe this...

Chapter 42                The only thing running on Mr Uba's mind is how to propose to her, he already bought a ring, he already know the answer but he is still nervous, he is making up ways to ask her he is thinking of romantic way. He used a candlelight dinner the firs time, he don't want to repeat it again. "How would you like to have a mother" he asked his daughter after having their lunch "That would be nice" she said, not looking at her dad, but the TV "Then would you like you mother to be Mirabel" he asked needing her daughters approval, cause being friendly with her is different from taking her as a mother "Isn't that the point of the whole thing" she said this time looking at her father "you know, I always imagine chatting with mom and all that, she happens to fill that fantasy of mine" she said a little too mature for ten years old girl He narrowed this vision at his daughter "remind me again, how old ar...

Chapter 40             Not long after the police came and took Iyke away, he also became the prime suspect of the hit and run, Mirabel gave her statement of what happened even Mr Uba. Her parents came back while the police are going so Mirabel filled them in, they kept thanking Mr Uba who doesn't really see the reason for the appreciation. Cause to them he saved their daughter but to him he saved his life, he needs Mirabel  more than he needs breath. "Come on its time to go, its late" Mirabel is asking him to leave, he don't want to saying he need to seat guard, regardless of the fact that the door have been fixed "I want to stay" he said with a puppy face "That won't charm me" she said, not that she don't want him to stay, but if he stay under the same roof with him, her body will be so aware of him, even they didn't stay in the same room, and with that she will sure not keep her hands off him. So to avoid such situation he have to...

Can... Explain" he said standing up, Mr Uba don't need his explanation, he descended on him, he first gave him a punch to his left cheek, the immediately to the right, before Iyke could stumble back he caught him and place him on the chair, then gave him three more punch, he stopped when he heard Mirabel's sobs. "Easy love" he went and helped her up, Mirabel looked at Iyke and got confuse if its just the few punch from Mr Uba that damaged his face to this extent, he was clearly unconscious "Remind me never to pick a fight with you" she said regaining herself, with Mr Uba around she could slowly feel her strength getting back ...

Chapter 38                Her throat hurts her, the Iyke she knows is different from the one before her, fear grip her so she screamed but received a hard punch on her stomach. She stumbled down and coughed in pain holding her tummy, it knocked the air out of her "I have been monitoring you, today everybody is gone even your so called lover" he said towering over her "let's see if he will still love after am done with you" he said with an evil smile.               Mirabel wants to shout but can't, she always want to fight but she lost all her energy, she now curse herself for being weak and it was clear she have not fully recovered cause she feel pain all over her body "Get over here" Iyke dragged her close, she tried resisting but he was way stronger than him, he tore her blouse exposing her black bra, the curves made iyke more determined, as he went for the bra he received a slap from Mirabel, it was hard b...

She was drifting off to sleep when she heard a knock, she the limped to the door to open it. "Iyke" she said surprisingly, she have never heard from him again since she turned him down, she thinks he is still angry "Can I come in" he asked gently, she thought for a second but decided to let him in, Iyke is one of the good guys, she know though he was pretty angry when he turned him down "What can I offer you" she asked "Nothing, I just came to visit you,...
