Although the monthly payment isn't that much, it's sustainable.
He's been thinking about his favourite sister lately.
He missed Nina so much, he can't wait for vacation to grab that little munchkin of his and hug the hell out of her.
Nina has been his favourite younger sister right from childhood.
He loves Sintia and Jenna too but the bond between him and Nina is stronger.
The last time he called home, Mum told him Nina stepped out.
That's what he's been hearing for the past two years.
They wouldn't let him talk to his sister and they wouldn't get her a phone.
Rochas don't get why they bought her younger sisters phone and they didn't buy for Nina.
He knows they've never liked her but the hatred can't be that deep.
Nina is the most wonderful person he's ever known. She's polite, cheerful, kind, beautiful and respectful.
Sometimes Rochas wonders why their parents dislike a beautiful soul like Nina.
He made a mental note to get a phone for Nina the next time he will be going home.
He misses her so much, is she fine? Are they still maltreating her? A lot of questions were running through his mind when a knock came on his door, he sighed creasing his forehead together tiredly.
The only time to rest is weekend, even his weekends are mostly occupied with office works that he needs to finish up before Monday.
"Come in." He said faintly.
"Good morning Sir." Beatrice greeted.
"Morning Beatrice, any problem?" Rochas asked without raising his head from the system.
"Mr. Kim from managing department asked me to hand this file to you, he said you should review it before submitting it to Mr. Chan by eleven."
Rochas looked at his watch hissing loudly. It's twenty minutes to eleven, how is he going to review this file before then?
"Why didn't he bring it since? There's no way it can be done before eleven, there is not." He yelled hitting the table.
"I am sorry Sir." Beatrice replied bowing her head. She was just sent to deliver a message nothing more.
"You know what? Please help me forward it to Joe, he's less busy. Tell him I sent you and the time it is to be submitted too." He instructed.
Only his best friend can save his @ss as it is now.
" Right away Sir." She bowed and left.
"Argh." Rochas muttered as he heard his phone beeping.
"It shouldn't be work related please." He said checking the caller ID which MUM was boldly written on it.
He frowned seeing her call. His Mum never calls him during work hours.
Did something happen in his absence? Is it Nina?
Nina smiled in victory seeing the news of Sia all over.
She's glad it happened that way at least, it saved her from the disgrace that could have felp on her.
Nina's aware she won't meet Sia before she gets to work.
" Baby." Derrick called hugging Nina from behind while kissing her neckline.
Nina pushed him away playfully turning to face him.
Derrick didn't give her any breathing space as he hugged her again.
"What are you doing Derrick, we are getting late for work." Nina said.
"Don't worry about that, you can go to work later. I have sort it out, I just want to stay here like this with you." He replied snuggling closer to her.
Nina sighed and hugged him back.
"Did you call Mr. Brian?" She asked.
"Yeah but I didn't talk to him of course." He defended.
"Then who did?" Nina asked narrowing her eyes.
"When I called him with your phone, I gave one of the maids to tell him you went for checkup and you might come late to work"
"But why?" Nina questioned again.
Derrick stared adoringly at her which made her blush.
"We've not been having time for ourselves, I just want to spend a few hours with you today. If that's okay with you."
"I am fine with it, I want to spend sometime with you too." Nina said shyly.
As they unlocked from the hug, Derrick's eyes went straight to Nina's lips.
"Can I ?" He asked, his hand brushing through her lips.
Nina rolled her eyes and nodded. Like he always takes permission before kissing her.
Derrick kissed her tenderly on her earlobe before grabbing her lips.
He bit her lower lip which made Nina gasp, that gave him the liberty to explore her lips.
They broke the kiss breathing heavily.
Derrick drew Nina closer to her possessively.
He dropped wet kisses all over her face, from her cheeks down to her earlobe.
"Don't you think it's time?" He whispered into her ear huskily.
Nina shivered from his touch, her legs were going jelly. She could have fallen if Derrick wasn't holding her so close to him.
She glanced nervously at him.
"T... time?" She stammered.
"Yes baby, time to consummate our marriage. I want you Nina, so badly but I can wait if you are not ready now. I will always do anything to please you. If you are not ready, I will understand"
He rasped in her ear.
"We can just have fun for the time being you kn..."
"I am ready." Nina cuts in.
Derrick blinked his eyes confusedly. How to
"I am ready to consummate our marriage." She elaborated.
"Mum, Good morning." Rochas greeted
"There's a problem Rochas." Mrs. Micheal said frantically ignoring her son's greeting.
As much as Micheal slapped her, he's still her husband and he did that out of anger.
She can't let him stay in the cell for 24hours.
Rochas dropped the file in his hand. He knew there will be a problem for his mother to call him by this time of the day.
"Is everyone fine? Is it Nina? What did you do to her this time around? What is happening Mum?" Rochas questioned.
"Everything doesn't have to revolve around Nina." Mrs. Micheal hissed angrily.
Sometimes she wonders if she really gave birth to Rochas.
