Chapter 100
Camilla just nodded, she couldn’t say anything. But kept looking into the eyes of the man she loved so much.
“Did you… I mean you and Justin Swaras have affairs?” He asked. That was the only reason he backed away from Camilla.
“No. We never did anything like that. He asked me out but I told him I can’t. Only you that matters to me, it’s only you I love. I haven’t done anything with anyone else while we were apart”Camilla answered honestly.
Rodrigo didn’t reply to her but just stared into her eyes. As if he was reading her thoughts, his eyes transfixed on hers.
“I love you very much Camilla but I don’t know if you still…” Rodrigo was saying when Camilla interrupted him.
“I love you too Rodrigo more than anything else” she confessed. A faint smile crossed her lips and he asked her a another question:
“Can we begin again?” He asked Camilla a question that was worth more than a million dollars to Camilla. She smiled and next, hugged Rodrigo, placing her head on his chest.
“Yes, yes” she stuttered. She was so excited that Rodrigo planted a featherlight kiss on her hair. She caressed his back, everything has actually fallen into place.
Rodrigo raised her chin and gently placed his lips on hers. It was something they both longed for. It started gently and gradually became fierce, hot and sweet.
Camilla didn’t know how they arrived at the bedroom but knew when they got there, Rodrigo was ready to ravish her.
He placed her on the King bed and his hands smooching her body. She was already moaning silently, finding her way to unload his rope.
Rodrigo kept kissing her as if his life depended on it. He next started kissing her neck down to her body. At this time Camilla couldn’t hold on, she succeeded in untying his rope.
Next morning when Camilla woke up, Rodrigo was not in bed anymore. She looked tired and out of strength. Rodrigo’s side was cold indicating he was up for a while already.
She got out of bed, and wrapped the quilt around her. Her legs seemed to wobble and she staggered into the bathroom.
Rodrigo should have changed his name to a horse. Shit, that guy is a badass. He kept taking her over and over despite her pleas to let her rest for a while.
It was close to dawn that he eventually let her go. It appeared he was making for the lost times. Despite letting her go, he didn’t appear to be exhausted.
She will have to take some painkillers. As she soaked in a warm bath, she cherished her time with Rodrigo. This was going to be a beginning for them.
What about his marriage? Was he still going ahead with it? No, he won’t. Rodrigo is principled, he wouldn’t sleep with her if he was going to be married to someone else.
She soon got out of the bathroom and saw that he had gotten her a new dress. She smiled, he knows her size always from her undies and her outer wears.
Rodrigo was looking simple in his round neck polo on jeans, he wore a flop and was making calls when she came downstairs.
When he saw her, he told the fellow on the other end that he would call her back. He hung up and placed the phone by the edge of the sofa.
“Finally up?” He asked, looking at her from her head to her toes. He smiled and stood up circling his hands around her waist.
“Yeah, I managed to be” Camilla replied, eyeing him playfully. Rodrigo chuckled and said “I’m glad you have rested enough because we still have business at hand” before Camilla could analyse what that means, he was kissing her again.
Eventually it was late in the evening when Rodrigo and Camilla drove to the glass house to see his grandfather. He shouldn’t have checked on him earlier but he was quite busy with his girlfriend.
Rodrigo kept glancing at Camilla’s side. She really was tired and he knew it. He knew he had over done her this time but he had already given her some pain killers.
“Should I take you back so you can rest?” He asked but Camilla said she would be fine. Rodrigo shrugged and kept driving.
“Did you take the contraceptives?” Rodrigo asked again and Camilla said yes. Then he didn’t say anything again. He was going to contemplate on how he was going to plan the engagement party between them both.
“Rodrigo” Camilla asked, turning to glance at him. “Yes” he answered, glanced at Camilla and concentrated on the steering again.
“Are you still getting married to the other woman?” Her eyes were breathing fire as if she could do anything if he said yes.
Rodrigo glanced at her and said “I’ve called off the wedding because I love you alone and I want you more than anyone else”
Camilla smiled and hugged him sideways. “I love you too Rodrigo. I really do” Camilla reaffirmed her confession.
When Camilla and Rodrigo arrived at the glass house, Jade and Jude were with their grandma Lola. They seemed to be doing some scrambling.
“Jude, Jade”Camilla called and the kids raised their heads and saw their mother. Lola too did the same and saw Camilla and Rodrigo.
She was happy. Her smile cannot be mistaken. It was genuine and filled with so much emotion and love. Seeing them both together now, implies they have left the past behind.
Camilla was holding hands with Rodrigo when her kids came running towards her. Rodrigo let her off and his eyes fixed on his kids.
He loved and longed for them for years, now he saw them, not through the video Mirabel usually sends but with his eyes, just as they are.
As the kids hugged their mother, Jade paused and looked at Rodrigo and then her brother. She squinted, her brother and this man looked so much alike.
“Jude, Jade this is your daddy. He was busy somewhere but he’s now fully back to us” Camilla created a false excuse not to make her kids unhappy.
Rodrigo immediately squatted. He came to their level and smiled. Jade took after Camilla but Jude, he doesn’t need to ask for who he took after. He readily saw his mini version in his son.
“Are you my real dad?” Jade asked, coming towards Rodrigo. “Yes, my love. I am your daddy” Rodrigo replied, nodding at the same time.
The girl seemed very happy at her father’s words as he threw herself on him and hugged him.
“Welcome daddy” Jude said and came over, hugging his father too. Rodrigo has never felt so happy in his life like he felt at the time when he heard his kids call him daddy.
He hugged them long and Camilla saw the tenderness and love visibly expressed in Rodrigo’s eyes. He seemed to have longed for such a time for a long time.
Lola was happy. She had her grandchildren and her son has found his woman again. Her eyes were filled with love and excitement.
Six months later, Rodrigo and Camilla’s wedding was the talk of the Town. On every social media handle, magazines and papers it’s all about Rodrigo and Camilla’s wedding.
“We are really going to be married Rodrigo” Camilla asked, resting her back on his torso.
“Yes my love. You and our kids are the best things I’ve ever had in my life” Rodrigo replied, playfully twisting the edges of her hair.
Suddenly the two kids came running towards their parents and it appeared they’ve been arguing.
“Dad, mum, Jude said we will not be accompanying you both for your honeymoon” she asked, feeling aggrieved already.
“Stupid, stupid. You are so lousy and can’t keep secrets” Jude rebuked his sister folding his arms around his chest and looked offended.
Camilla and Rodrigo exchanged glances and they both smiled quietly.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
“Let me think of what I will do for you both. How about I take you both and your mummy for a date?” Rodrigo asked, the two kids looked at each other again and giggled.
“Yes daddy,” Jade screamed.
“We move dad” Jude gave a thumbs up.
