"Baby I'm sorry please. I was so drunk, I was almost raped in the restroom, that was when Michael came in and he refused leaving me alone then, that was why I left. I'm really sorry."

"It's okay. When we didn't see you today at the office, we called. I mean countless times but you didn't answer."

"I was still asleep."

"I figured, I know he wouldn't let you go in that state."

"Shut up" she laughed along with Janet before remembering what she said "wait you said, Michael owns the club?"

"Yes, I mean I was surprised too."

"Damn. No wonder he showed up uninvited."

"What do you mean uninvited? If I had known he was around, I would have made you introduce us to him and the fun would have been merrier" Janet commented.

Sasha sighed, if only you know, she thought "well, yea. It would have."

"Okay babe, enjoy your honeymoon while we work ourselves to death here."

"I'm sorry, I need to call the girls."

"No need, they are here with me and the phone is on speaker."

"Oh, babes I'm sorry. Please forgive me" Sasha apologized.

"It's okay but you owe us lunch" She heard Agatha said.

Sasha laughed "fine, but not today. I will let you know when it will be."

"Sure, bye girl."

"Bye" she hung up and heaved a sigh, glad that was settled. She looked at the time and it was 12:25pm, well, looks like she is going to have a late lunch with her mom, she thought as her tummy rumbled to remind her that she didn't even have breakfast. She breathed out and got up to dress.

Sasha stepped out of the cab in front of her parents home. She walked to the porch and reached to ring the doorbell but then remembering how her mother is going to start again with her lecturing, she decided to just turn the handle and get in. She removed her jacket and hanged it on the coat hanger near the door "mom?" She called when there was no sign of her. This is why she always ring the bell when she comes, now she is in and her mother doesn't even know. If she is a bugler now won't she make away with the valuables?

"Mom?" She called again and walked to the kitchen but she wasn't there, she looked out through the window to see her in the garden picking some vegetables. She walked out to the garden, her hands in her jean pocket "hi mom."

Angelica turned at the sound of her daughter's voice, she smiled when she saw her and stood up "hey baby" she removed her dirty gloves and rubbed her hands on the apron she was putting on "sorry I didn't get the door."

"It's okay, only that if I was a bugler, you wouldn't even know I came in."

"I left the door open because I was expecting you" Angelica tried to defend herself.

"And still if I was a bugler I wouldn't care if you left the door open for your daughter. I will just come in."

"Buglers? In broad daylight? Baby, it doesn't work like that."

"So you believe, it mustn't be in the night" she retorted and went to help her carry the basket filled with the vegetables "what a bountiful harvest."

"Really? Take some home with you when leaving. Use is to cook a nice dinner for my son in law" Angelica smiled.

If he will eat it, Sasha thought and nodded to her. They carried the basket into the kitchen where she filled a bowl with water in the sink and started washing them while Angelica washed her hands and settled to make their lunch. 

"How has your married life been like?"

"Good, nothing different from my everyday life, only that I now wake up with someone in the bed."

"Well, if you think is that boring then you can consider getting pregnant. I'm sure Vanessa will want a grandchild as fast like I do."

Sasha froze at the sink, pregnant? Her husband has not even touch her and she is talking about getting pregnant? If she should get pregnant now, that means she is leaving her matrimonial home, she got hold of her thoughts "I will tell Michael."

"Good, at least by this time next year, we will have a little one" Angelica smiled to her daughter as her eyes spoke of her joy. Sasha chuckled nervously and faced what she was doing, hoping her mother will drop the subject.

"So when will Michael have dinner with us? You know as our son in law, we haven't had dinner with him nor even speak with him. Thinking of that, your dad made a big mistake. We should have invited him to dinner before your wedding, get to talk with him and ask him some questions as your parents. Well, we can't go back now but that doesn't mean we still won't ask him to dinner sometime" she looked at her daughter "I'm sure he is taking good care of you. He is capable."

You are just thinking of this now? Bravo, she thought and smiled while nodding. Angelica returned the smile and they made the lunch happily. Leaving later in the day, her mother walked her to the door.

"Where is your car?" She asked looking at the empty driveway.
