''You said he was alluring? Was I not alluring when I asked you to marry me?''

''No yes, no. I mean you were alluring, totally alluring. In fact, you were so alluring that I couldn't stop loving you. He is not as manly as you either''

''Is he handsome than me?''

''Off course not. How can he compare to a perfect man like you?''

''It's too late'' he said to her.

''Huh? No, Andy. Don't be mad, I was out of my mind. I love you, you know that, right?''

''I am going to punish you for ruining my mood'' he said and took the fruits fork from her hands and pushed her on to the sofa, getting on top of her. he started kissing her and she wrapped her arms around his neck, responding to his kisses.

.

''Which ward is Mali at?'' Lisa asked Paula as they got down from the car. her pregnancy belly was now starting to show a little, but the loose dress shirt that she wore complimented her well.

''Private ward 0089, oh, should be that way'' Paula said pointing at a hallway as they entered inside, ''she is going to be so surprised. I didn't tell her we were visiting today. This must be it, 0089'' Paula smiled and pushed opened the door exclaiming, ''surprised''

Paula and Lisa stood at the door with mouths opened wide as they looked at the scene before them.

''You are here?'' Brian Rodriguez said and turned to look at them.

''Senior, you and big sis were''

''My hair got tangled with my earring and he was helping me to remove it. What nonsense were you thinking about?'' Mali asked as she looked at them.

''Oh, we misunderstood the situation, right Lisa?''

''Oh, right. Hi, I am Lisa'' Lisa went forward to greet Mali as the atmosphere turned a little awkward.

''Hi, Lisa. I am glad to finally meet you''

''Same here''

''How is your health now? You should take care of yourself and eat more fruits now that you are expecting''

''I am doing that. We brought you breakfast; I hope you haven't eaten yet?''

''Not yet''

''Is he your boyfriend?'' Lisa as she turned to look at Brian who was chatting with Paula at the side.

''No, we don't have anything doing with each other''

''You are just as Paula said''

''Huh? What did that brat tell you about me?''

''She said you are quite adorable and I see that now'' Lisa sat on the bed and opened the food flask, ''I made you duck soup, Paula said it is your favourite''

''Thank you''

''We are family now. No need to thank me''

''Senior, you are really advancing quickly with my sister. I didn't think that you would visit her at the hospital''

''I am serious about your sister''

''Do you like her?''

''I don't know but I think I am intrigued by her. who knows, I might just like her without knowing''

''Whoa, senior. I can't believe you are going to end up being my brother in law, but, my sister isn't that easy to win over. Can you handle it?''

''Don't worry. Once I set my eyes on something, I don't back down. Your sister will like me very soon''

''Whoa, I love your confidence''

''What does your sister like?''

''It's hard to tell but if there is something that sums her up, then it is elegance. She likes to look elegant even when she is sad''

''I see''

''But, don't think of buying any elegant clothes for her. She likes to buy her own stuff. But, I do know what can help you win her over''

''Spill the tea fast, Paula''

''She hates being alone. She might act like she doesn't need people but trust me, having someone around gives her security and assurance. You will grow on her if you come to see her every day. Make sure that you are there when she needs someone and I can guarantee that her feelings will change''

''I will do that''

''Paula, what are you doing there? Did you come to visit me or t chat with him?'' Mali asked as she drunk the soup.

''Coming''

''I will go to the firm and check on a few times. I will be back soon, so don't miss me too much'' Brian said as he went closer to Mali.

''What are you trying to do?'' Mali asked and tensed up as he kissed her forehead before leaving.

''He is quite interesting. Big sis, can't you just give him a chance?''

''He he is too shameless'' Mali said and Lisa chuckled.

''Mali, don't you know that in this world men that aren't afraid to express themselves are rare? You should be happy he is shameless''

''It's my business, I will handle it. You two are kids, you won't understand''

''Big sis, eat a lot''

''When are you going to pick mother up from the airport?''

''At noon, I will bring her here once she arrives''

..

Paula looked at wrist watch as she waited inside the airport lobby. When she saw her mother coming out of the exit, she hurried over to her side.

''Mom, welcome back''

''Thank you. How are you doing?''

''I'm fine. How was your trip?''

''It was worth it. Let's go and see your sister. I missed you two so much''

''Big sis asked about you. Mom, I have some tea to spill'' Paula said and raised her eyebrows.

''What gossip do you have that makes you this excited?''

''Mom, don't be too surprised okay. what I am about to say will shock you''

''Just say it already''

''Your first daughter might get married anytime soon''

''What?'' Mrs. Emelia exclaimed loudly and Paula cussed.

''Mom, I told you not be so surprised''

After sitting in the car, Mrs. Emelia turned to Paula and asked, ''is everything you said really true?''

''Mmm, he is my senior from the University and the successor of big sister's law firm. He is a hot shot''

''Well, I understand Mali. It took her a while to get her act together after almost losing her life to alcohol. She must be scared that she wouldn't be able to give a much love to him as he is showing to her''

''You are right. I was so excited about the possibility of them getting together that I didn't see this from her point of view''

''It's alright. I will talk to her when we get there. You said they seem to have chemistry?''

''Yes, their chemistry is explosive''

''She just needs time. She will come around. If he is a good man and has the best intentions towards her, then naturally they will get together when she grows feelings for her''

It was in the middle of the week when Mr. Bassey called Andy, Leslie, Paula and Lisa over to the family house for dinner.

As they sat on the table, he glanced between Lisa and Paula as he ate. This caught Paula's attention and she leaned towards Andy and asked.

''Why is your father looking at me and Lisa like that? Is he trying to tell me to also get pregnant?''

Andy couldn't trifle the laughter in him and let it out as he turned to look at Paula, ''should I ask him for you?''

''No. In any case, we are not planning to have children until I complete my Masters' class two years later. If he wants grandchildren that much, we can adopt one for him''

''Lisa, how are you feeling?'' Mr. Bassey asked as he glanced at Paula.

''I'm find dad''

''That's great. You need to take care of yourself more. I asked my assistant to get you some health tonics that are good for your health and the baby's growth''

''Aren't you going to ask give me any health tonics? Or it is because I am not pregnant?''

''You should focus on your studies. Andy already told me your plans to have kids two years later. I will get you some health tonics that are good for the body and brain''

''I only need tonics for the body. As for the brain, I am very smart''

Everyone at the table laughed and Leslie said to Paula, ''it is always fun getting together for family dinner. Paula and father are always lively, right?''

Paula looked up at Mr. Bassey who signed and shook his head as he pointed at her.

''I must have wronged this girl in my past life''

''Father, eat some more'' Paula placed a thigh in Mr. Bassey's bowl, ''your reactions are always the best anytime I pick on you''

Purplebride's corner:

Well, well, well. We have come to yet another ending, right? I'm shedding tears as I write this because I hate to part with our favourite characters but they need to continue to live their lives as we are doing.

It has been a wonderful time with you my lovely readers. All those who started with me from Maria, Ad-Din, Calia and Kobby to Jordan, Paige, Carlien, Lucas, Mirabel and Joel and finally with Paula, Andy, Lisa and Leslie.

The time we spent together might turn into memories but I hope that we cherish them as much. Because I don't want to let go, I am shamelessly asking you to come with me to visit Bullet Heart, Love the Psycho and my latest book, The Witness; Hello! My Love!

Trust me, these three books are lit and I am sure you will love them as well.

To all those who bought my chapters with paid coins, I appreciate you so much, thanks to you I didn't go to bed hungry at the end of the month because you supported me.

To those who didn't have the ability to buy with coins and read with free pass, trust me I don't love you less. You are all my cherished readers so I love you so much.

To those who bought my privilege, I have no words to express my gratitude to you.

To those who wrote me a review, commented so I didn't feel lonely while writing, you are the best guys.

Just a little announcement; I might and I am saying might because I just started work and it's a crazy rush hour for me. So, if I do get the time, I will return and drop a few chapters featuring Mali and Brian Rodriguez. [Who wants that to happen?]

Let's continue to communicate and please stay safe in this crazy time of pandemic. I love you all!!!
