“Harold, Allysia is coming home” Nola said excitedly, walking out of the kitchen.

“With your parents” She added.

“Yaaaaay” ivory squealed happily while Harold smiled.

“When will they be coming?” He asked.

“Next weekend” Nola said, dropping the tray on the dining table.

“Okay then, we would be gladly expecting them” Harold said.

“I can’t wait to see them” Ivory grinned.

Irene smiled, not saying a word..

She can’t actually wait to see nola’s daughter and Harold’s parents too.

“Let’s eat” Harold said.

**

Irene made ivory have her nap after eating lunch.

She returned happily to her workshop to continue her work..

She should call Damien that she won’t be coming home for the weekend.

There’s so much to do here.

She sat on the chair and gr@bb£d her phone.

Why won’t you be coming home for the weekend!” Damien frowned over the phone.

Chill Dam, i have a lot to do.

A lot? Is the nanny work that stressful?

Not the nanny work” Irene smiled. “My own work” she added.

Your own?

Yes Dam, I’m going to s£nd you a picture now and make sure you show it to mum too” Irene said before disconnecting the call.

She

started taking pictures of her workshop.

Oh..my! Mr Harold did all that for you?” Damien nearly screamed over the phone.

“That’s unbelievable…” Irene heard her mum said in the background.

Yes he did.

D..does he want something in return?” Damien asked curiously.

No, he doesn’t” Irene said,moved to tears again. “He’s just so nice” she added.

Can we come over to thank him?” Irene’s stepmum asked.

No Mum, do not bother. I’ll just s£nd your greetings to him.

I’m so so grateful to him. I wish i can just see him and thank him profusely” Damien said.

This is so so surprising” Mrs Neave said.

Yeah” Damien conceded.

We should leave you to work now”

Okay, bye.

“The scissors is gonna hurt you Ivory” Irene warned for the third time.

They had both returned to her workshop after ivory woke up from her nap and she re-ad to her in the libr@ry.

“What do you use this for Irene?” Ivory asked and Irene sighed.

She just can’t count the amount of questions Ivory has asked during her stay here.

“Well that’s tape measure, it’s used to get people’s measurements before sewing” Irene said.

“Ohh…so you went to their houses one after the other to take their measurements?” Ivory asked.

“No, they s£nt their measurements to me” Irene said.

“Ohh…” Ivory said.

“What should i help you with” She added.

“Absolutely nothing dear” Irene said.

“Are you sure?” Ivory asked.

“Yes, you can just watch me” Irene smiled.

“Okay”

Days flew past and Irene was done with the orders.

She got more orders but she’s yet to accept them.

She nee-ded to finish the first set and now she’s done.

When she’s back from delivering this last one, she might start accepting the new orders.

She’s so happy Daire fashions is getting known little by little.

She alre-ady opened a page for people to contact her.

She do post samples of her wears and she always got great reviews and recommendation.

Not only that, her bank account is getting fat.

She’s just so grateful to God and Harold.

She has been working with him for few weeks now and she can’t deny her feelings for him any longer.

She has feelings for Harold and she’s afraid to admit it.

She hadn’t planned this from the start,she didn’t even see it coming,it just c@m£ and she can’t st©p it.

The feeling’s good.

It had been so long she felt her heart race, so long she felt this good.

She always look forward to every night with him in the libr@ry.

Yeah..they still spent nights in the libr@ry and they’ve gotten so close than she would have ever imagined.

She now feels so comfortable around him,she feels so free to call him Harold.

Other workers do raise eyebrows when she does that but she doesn’t care anymore.

She sighed before picking up the last wear she’s to deliver.

It’s well packed alre-ady.

She walked out of her workshop and closed the door behind her.

“I’ll be right back Nola” she called out as she walked past the kitchen.

“Going to deliver?” Nola asked.

“Yeah, the last piece” Irene said.

“Ohh.. okay”

“Let’s go to your workshop” Ivory said to Irene after they were done with lunch.

“No, you’ll nee-d to take your nap. Besides I’m done with the orders and I’m gonna rest for few days before accepting the pending ones”

“Uh..huh” ivory pressed herl-ips together.

“I’ll have my nap then” she said and Irene led her to her room.

She tucked her in be-d and pe-cked her forehead before moving into her own room.

It’s been long she had a nap and she decided to do so now.

She sighed softly as she fell on her be-d.

She can’t wait to go home for the weekend.

She misses Damien and her Mum.

Her mum’s surgery bill is almost re-ady.

She can’t wait to see her back on her two feets and her heart working perfectly again.

The hvge pay she received from Harold and the money she received from the orders helped in almost completing the surgery bill.

Few months ago,she never believed she’ll get more than half of her mum’s surgery bills this soon .

Things are just so unpredictable.

She’s so glad to have met Harold.

He’s slowly ma-king her dreams come true.

The dream she never thought would even be fulfilled.

They laughed over dinner as Nola cracked jokes.

“Dad…table manners” Ivory reminded even though she had laughed too.

“Ohh…i got carried away i guess” Harold smiled.

Irene gulped water, still feeling the urge to laugh again.

“Such jokes shouldn’t be cracked over meals, it almost choked me” Harold laughed and Irene followed.

Ivory also giggled while Nola smiled.

They continued with their meal in silence and they were almost done when a b©dyguard c@m£ to whisper into Alex’s ear.

He nodded and walked up to Harold.

“I apologise for interrupting your dinner Mr Harold but i was told now that a guy named Damien is here seeking to irene,his sister” Alex said.

“What!” Irene exclaimed rising to her feet.

“I’m so sorry Harold, Damien must be out of his mind to visit me here, I’m so sorry, I’ll go chastise him immediately” She said about to make a move when Harold st©pped her.

“He could be here to tell you something important” He said.

“That’s why i have my phon..” Irene was saying when she realised she left her phone upstairs.

But still ..

“Even if he c@m£ on a visit,I’ll gladly welcome him. Bring him in Alex” Harold ordered.

“Huh?” Alex asked.

“You heard me” Harold said and Alex quic-kly carried out his order.

Irene sat down slowly, unsettled.

The dining room door opened and Damien walked in.

Irene stood up quic-kly seeing the look on his face.

She knew something had gone wrong…

“What happened?” She asked in a shaky voice.

“It’s Mum..” Damien said, st©pping to catch his breath.

“What happened to mum?” Irene almost screamed.

“She..’s..not.. moving anymore” He bur-sted out crying.
