BECOMING

CHAPTER /////

I can't see some tension between nathan and Chris.
Can you stop your brickering for once.
Sorry nana.
It my birthday tomorrow and I don't need any fight. Do you understand me ?
Yes ma'am.
Good.
Sorry about that Amara.
He saved you how. I was in a bad space after my break up with my ex. He stopped me getting hit by a car.
Am the devil to you chris, I will continue to be that to you.
Do you know who he was when you do that?
Excuse me?
Am just saying, it hard not to know who he was.
I don't know he was until he told me and you still decided to marry him.
Do I say no to some one I care a lot about and I also want to spend the rest of my life with.
I will have run if I were you.
Renee has this suspicious look on her face.
I just find it hard to believe you don't know him.
What are you getting at nathan snapped at Renee.
Don't talk to her like that?
I will not sit her and let her disrespect my wife in her house.
Not everyone sit in the country club all day or spend their time reading gossip blogs Renee.
It okay .  Even if I know who he was it doesn't change anything cause I don't need anything from him.
You are really an impressive young lady.
Thank you nana.
And your parents? Do they like my boy.
I lost both of  my parents when I was fourteen.
Am so sorry for your loss.
Chris stood up and offer me a hug. I know the feeling of losing both parents. I was fourteen too when our parents died.
Welcome to the family Amara. It nice to have a sister for once.
Me too, I always wanted a brother I can boss around.
At your service sis.
You poor child. She hugged me also.
Nathan face was hard to read. I couldn't tell what he was thinking.
So how.
I was raised by my Mom's friend.
Bless her.
Welcome home Amara. I know we have asked you enough question for today . Are you hungry?
No nana , am fine. But can I make us dinner later if you're staying for tonight.
Yes dear.
And you guys.
We will leave after dinner . Okay .
Let me see what you have in the kitchen.
He came over to the kitchen.
You don't have to do that.
I want to, more over I like your nana.
She likes you too.
You didn't tell me you were lawyer.
You didn't ask. More over you didn't tell me about Renee friend.
She was the one that stood you up?
There was nothing to tell.
I think some pasta will be good.
He wrapped his hand around my wrist and whisper to my hair.
Wish we were alone right now?
What will you do?
You don't want to know, cause I can still taste you Amara.
Hello lovebirds?
We are still here.
Do you  guys have to really stay for dinner?
Yes.

He went back to his grandma.
What do you think nana?
I like her. I thought you lied about you been married until I saw the pictures.
She is good for you and be good to her.
I will nana I promise.
Don't let her go like chelsea.
I can't let go nana, he looked over to me and our eyes met and he flashed me a grin.
Which I returned the favor to him.
You deserve to be happy everything that happens was never your fault.
I got you something special for your birthday  right?
Yes, now hurry up and give me great grand kids.
Nana . Not so fast.
You were fast to get married , why not kids.
Nana what are you two whispering about?
Nothing much chris.
Just telling your brother how I think she is good for him.
I can bet my everything that in two weeks he will mess it up and leave him.
Nana, you know he has no soul, he is controlling and when he does not get his way. He gets angry and let them get into an accident.
You really blaming for our parents accident.
Yes it mine fault. I killed your beloved parents.

What happened was not your brother fault.
You always defend him nana.
Why.

Are you going to continue doing this even after am gone.
It was the drunk drive who was driving in the rain.

You two will behave in front of Amara. I don't want her to think I don't  raised you boys properly.
