Chereads / I rise from my Ash / Chapter 9 - Chapter nine

Chapter 9 - Chapter nine

Being a mother is probably the best feeling in the world. Now I wonder how some women are capable of hating their kids for some petite reason, or have the heart to abandon the baby, it totally doesn't make sense.

Selena came into my life just like the moon in a dark night. Watching her sleep is probably one of the most peaceful and beautiful moments. Her cute little hands, legs and body, I fell harder for my daughter day by day. Kendall and Justin had to return home because of work, they only spent 2 weeks with me but I was happy beyond words. My house felt complete, with my daughter, closest friends and family.

Steven spent a lot of time with me and Selena, particularly Selena. After work we usually stayed at my place for an hour or two to discuss more about our developing company. One more reason to like Steven is he is very strategic, no wonder novas kept him with them.

Building a company isn't a baby's play and definitely not planning to build something that would over take the industry. Time fly by quick, it felt as if it was yesterday I gave birth to my baby, but now she has started to learn walking. No matter what stressed me, as soon as I see her cute smile all problems vanished.

Seriously I am not saying Steven is perfect and flawless, he is human after all and absolutely no human is perfect, what makes them perfect is their imperfections. He has his own fair share, he has a short temper and sometimes makes decision without thinking, which he often regrets, but that makes him human right?.

He loves Selena more than a father could. The people I loved most had ulterior motives with me and ruined my life, but am glad I gave Steven the chance to be my friend, if I didn't I would have lost a great deal. People at work loved and adored Selena, anyways who wouldn't, she is the cutest adorable baby in the world, I had good genes to start with and who ever her father was also had good looks, those blue eyes of hers that I love. Her blue eyes were as deep as the ocean, as clear as the sky, as cold as ice but with a fire that melted my soul and surrounded my heart.

But when it came to Steven everyone had the same question and opinion. " Are you two a couple, do you love eachother" and what not.

But they failed to understand that some people are naturally lovely and supportive, there isn't a necessity for a romantic relationship between a guy and a lady, it can be platonic, if it becomes love then good, if not it's the most pure relationship on earth after relationship with family.

Tell you what, my daughter loves me no doubt, but the moment she sees Steven am done, she goes running to him with her small little feet's extending her hand so that he would pick her up. I felt jealous really, I was the one that nearly died in the labor room, but as soon as she sees him she runs to him.

It's been 3 years now since I moved here and my whole companies plan had been done. The building had come up beautifully. We had handpicked street talented genuines who didn't have good education and enrolled them in a good school. I had once seen a guy making a paper robot with small tools and I knew right away that this guy was resourceful.

I wanted to hide my identity as the owner of the new company Lena techs and more hence Steven was the face for the company. He had made an announcement that he is not the owner but the vice president of the company, plus novas kicked him out when they thought he was double crossing them. Anyways it's all part of our plan.
