"Your boss doesn't deserve you," Clifford revealed. "Why are you telling me all this?" I narrowed my eyes at him. "Because I want you for myself. You're the woman of my dreams." Compared to how he behaved when he came to deliver stuff to me, he was very blunt now. "What if I don't like you back?" "I'll wait, after all, I'm good at that." He didn't look fazed. "Why me? I don't even own a business of my own." I told him. "You don't need to own a business, Arleen. It's just you I need." "What do you need me for?" "I need you to be my woman, that's all." He answered. **** Arleen Theodore is a secretary who is in love with her boss, Damion Clinton, but he doesn't love her back although he's aware but acts ignorant. Whereas, Clifford Edson, Arleen's delivery guy secretly loves her and tries to find any chance he gets to deliver things to her. BUT when the boss comes in contact with the delivery guy, things go haywire…. could it be that the delivery guy brought out mixed feelings from Damion towards Arleen? Or is the delivery guy Damion Clinton's untold truth?

5 months later…
"Don't hold back! Push!!!...yes, it's almost here, push!"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"
I screamed with all my guts as I felt my baby slowly slip out of my womb.
"Oh my goodness! You did it sweetheart!"
My mother happily kissed my forehead and rubbed my arm in a loving manner.
"Oh, look how cute it is," she left my side and went to hold it while I was still reeling from everything.
It was a relief and I loved the way I was feeling.
Was this what it meant to be free?
"Why isn't he crying?" My mother asked in worry.
"Let me see," the doctor said.
At their conversation, I stared at the ceiling in fear.
I heard hurried footsteps as they took my baby away while I laid on the bed with my mother by my side as well as a nurse who was cleaning me up.
I couldn't speak or ask anything for fear that it might come true.
