"I have to leave. My flight is due!."
Andrew dresses up
He then seats at the edge of the bed fixing his shoes.
I hug and caress his back, not wanting him to leave.
He holds and places me on his laps.
"I don't want to leave either but I have to!."
He gives me a peek on my lips.
"We haven't discussed, about the baby, yet!."
I whisper
"Do as you wish!."
He tells me straight into my eyes
"What!."
I get off him.
"Keep it Grace!. I don't want to fight with you!. Do as you wish!."
There he repeats it again
I quietly move to the kitchen without saying a word. Red mad at him.
"Grace, Grace!."
He follows me,
I don't answer. I stop at the kitchen sink.
"Answer me!."
Rolling me to face him
I gave him a death stare.
"What do you want me to say!. I guess you had a nice time. Now want to leave and go back to your girlfriend!."
I turn back at the sink.
He turns me back to him.
Now I am facing him.
He smiles at me!.
Clenches my waist and delicately motions me, left and right. With my hands on his arms, trying to push away.
"I say do as you wish!. Simply because I respect you!. I can't impose my desires in your life, we just met. If you decide to abort, I will respect your decision and if you decide not to, I will act accordingly!. Or is there something else you want me to say?."
He briefly explains, asking
"Wow!. I didn't see it that way!."
I slightly giggle
"Yeah, I think your hormones are in action!."
He smiles at me, rubbing his nose on mine.
Now we are kissing!.
"I have to get to the hotel before leaving!."
I take his suit and put it on.
I am happy right now.
He pecks me with that he leaves.
I fall on my bed happy, pressing the pillow tight.
"I have to call Izzy's parents!."
Then I remember about Izzy and my mood changes.
I take a deep breath and call Elizabeth.
"How can Izzy leave the country without informing me, I won't this take it lightly. So you girls feel am too judgmental."
Elizabeth takes a deep breath holding her tears
"I simply have a different perspective and you both know that. Whatever I am mad at you girls. And if I see Joe, I swear, I will kill him!."
She cries out
"Stop crying, It's hasn't gotten to that!.
She gets me worried.
"It's the pregnancy, it gets me so emotional. I can't hold it!."
She laughed but cries at the same time.
"It's weird!."
I laughed at her.
"I know right!."
She exclaims
With that we off, the call.
I have to go to work and at the same time, I have to go to Izzy's parent's place. I can't tell them that on the phone.
I am confused!.
.
.
"Yeah, my father owns this!."
Joshua brags
"Hahaha, my father is the president of this country. Haha!."
One of the receptionists mocks at him.
I enter there the building!.
"Grace, Grace tell them who I am!. Joshua handheld!. You came to our house in Berlin. Tell them!."
Joshua screams as he sees me
"Welcome, Madame!."
The receptionist stands up to greet as I move towards them!.
I nod at her moving straight, without stopping at Joshua's words.
Yet, Joshua insists.
I roll back to him,
All the first-floor staff stops at Joshua's effrontery to listen to my answer. An errand guy who stops the CEO with such boldness.
"He must be saying that truth. This guy is crazy, he claims to be a Handheld!."
The crowd murmuring.
"And who do you say, you are?!.".
I bitterly ask
"A Handheld, son to the owner of this company!."
Repeats boasting.
"Joshua, I won't condone this insolence and such turmoil in these premises!."
I yell at him
"But I am saying that truth...!..."
He gets weak and whisper, stuns at my reaction
I cut him off!.
"Shut up and get busy, It is your first day remember!."
I piaf enter the lifter.
Straight to my office!.
I have a lot in my mind!.
Joshua can't bear the shame he follows me to my office.
"What do you want!."
I drop my bag on the table and seat.
"How could you disgrace me in this manner. Now everyone thinks am a fool and the news is fast-spreading!."
He is upset
"You disgrace your self, Joshua, by spreading that information. Your father sent you here to comprehend that life isn't all about money and the title or family name we bare but it about hard work!. You better start learning!."
I'm yelling now
"Whatever, you just needed to say the truth. It's all I asked for!."
He raises his voice
"Joshua, I am your boss, and you are just an errand guy, so you only enter my office if I permit you to, if not you stay at the reception. Secondly, you speak to me in a respectful manner!. Third, here there is a hierarchy and you have to follow it, if you don't know what I mean, ask your colleagues they will tell you more. If you aren't happy with what I say, you can phone your dad and cry to him. Since you aren't man enough to face your life!."
I shut him up, speaking so fast without any pause.
He stares at me as if he is seeing a devil.
"Won't tolerate any of such behavior again!. I hope, I have made my self clear!."
I yell.
I sound so aggressive recently. I easily get pissed up. My voice resonates out of my office, causing noise in the corridors. Though they can barely listen to what I am saying.
"Yes madam!."
He wraps his lips.
"Now get the hell out of my office!."
I state
With that, he leaves!.
"She is irrecognizable!."
Joshua tells himself
.

At the end of the day, I had to drive to Izzy's parents. It wasn't something easy to do yet I had too.
