The Billionaire Secret Admirer

After making sure everything was okay I left.

Ohio was watching the news with my Dad, talking and laughing over something. Cole was not with them I guess Melinda whisked him away to their room.

I informed Ohio that his room and bath was set, he thanked me with a smile before standing up. He bid my Dad good night and got a cool reply from him.

I led him to the room and showed him where everything is located.

As I closed the door behind us, I turned to him and said in a whisper.

“I know the room is not as luxurious or nice as yours but please manage with us for the moment. And I can’t thank you enough for agreeing to do this…Ohio. Thank you.

His phone beeped as I was still talking, he picked up and started talking quietly to the caller.

“Hey Lili, sorry I missed your calls. Yeah…. I’m fine. How are you and everyone…ooh, really? Sorry…I told you already that my weekend is taken. I can’t until next week. I’m sorry I put you on hold. I will make it up to you…. hahahaha. c’mon, I’m serious. Okay…. Please less calls and messages this weekend. You know I can’t say no to your call but make it less or rather… preferable messages only. Good! That’s why I love you…alright. Goodnight.

As the call ended, he turned to me and apologied for interrupting what I was saying.

He looked around and I guess he was looking for the air-condition. The one in this room was not working well and because we hardly have visitors that uses the room, my Dad did not bother to fix it. Aside that every other thing was okay in the room and Ohio will have to manage with the fan and everything that was not up to his standard.

“Thank you Becca. Your family is warm…your Dad is cool and very brilliant too. I liked him even before I met him and meeting him confirms it all. I like it here and I’m very okay…

I nodded, told him goodnight before turning to leave. I don’t know why I’m feeling bad after his call with his Lili. Who I have come to know is his woman. But even at that I still manage to smile and walked out.

Melinda came to wake me up the following morning. She said everyone is ready to leave. She asked me why I was sleeping like a lazy wife when is 5am already.

I quickly stood and tidied up, picked few things and came out of the room.

I saw Ohio and my Dad running on the treadmill, he was sweating that early morning. I wonder when he got up to join the exercise or is probably my Dad that went to wake him up since they were already acting like father and son.

Asked Melinda about Cole and she said he was still sleeping and he does not want to be disturbed. That once everything is set she will go and wake him up.

I thought Melinda said everyone was ready why is Cole still sleeping?

It was too early to start up quarrel, I over looked her dramas.

After we were set to leave, my parents drove ahead of us. Since one car cannot take everybody we decided to go on a separate cars.

Me and Ohio followed suit then Melinda and her over hyped fiance followed behind.

Melinda was the one driving while Cole relaxed beside her. I started wishing that I also know how to drive. I did not put interest because I don’t have a car of my own but seeing Melinda driving makes me want to also learn.

Ohio asked me if I slept well and I nodded and returned back the question and he said he did until Dad came to tap at his door so that he can join him in exercising. I smile as he said so and did not have much to say after that.

He looked me over and continued driving.

When we finally got to the Resort Beach, There was not enough room for everyone. Only three rooms were left. My parents took one, Melinda and Cole where already in one room. It was remaining a room and me and Ohio will have to share same room.

As we took our bags to the rooms, and unpacked silently without having much to say.

Ohio came to me and said.

“You have being awkwardly silent Becca. If you are not comfortable being in the same room with me…just say it out and I will look for an alternative. But we need to make this seem all real and not make your family to start raising an eye brow. Whatever that will make you happy…. I will do exactly that.

“I’m…okay. Is fine… I was worried that you may not like the idea of sharing a room but since you are fine with it…so are mine too. I quietly replied him.

He looked at me again, looking from my eyes down to my mouth. I felt the usual butterflies swimming in my stomach. I thought he was going to kiss me, I will not have the strength to turn away because I was beginning to fall for him. Which was exactly what I try to avoid but I just can’t help it.

We stood staring at each other for no reason until we heard my Dad calling out to us to hurry and come out, is time for some boat ride and real fun.

I took my simple swimming cloths to the bathroom, closed the door and changed over. When I came out he was in his own simple wears, waiting for me.

He took my hand and we stepped out to join others who were already waiting.

My heart beat as he held my hand but I try not to think about it. I was smiling as we walk down despite my discomfort mainly for the sake of Melinda who looked at me suspicious.

I don’t know what her problem is, she likes getting on my nerves but she won’t get the answer she is looking for. I won’t let her have it.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Ohio was doing so well with his performance and I’m going to enjoy every moment with him before he will return to his normal life and to his woman “Lili”.

The day was going well, we had lots of fun. The boat ride, the water race, pictures time, lots to eat and drink.

As night approached, we went to get our costumes for the camp fire which my Dad ordered down for everyone.

We changed over and matched down to the camp fire ground where other families and couples gathered with their loves ones.

We sang and danced around the fire, until it was burning into ash.

Almost everyone got tired after the whole activities.

Dad suggested we set up our own family fire close to our lodge.

The fire was set by my Dad and his two boys, Ohio and Cole. It was an activity day and night for all of us.

Ohio was blending perfectly into everything and it seem he was always seen close to my Dad.

All of us sat around the fire, my Parents, Cole and Melinda and then me and Ohio.

My Dad was talking about his youthful life and some lovely memories that I still remember, he talks about my Mom, who he calls his heartbeat. He talks about my brother Joe who was in a faraway country with his own family.

My Dad talks about me and how I was a “Daddy little girl when I was growing up” he talks about Melinda who always wanted to have her way at all-time, My Dad said that Melinda has a good heart which she hides from everyone.

And I’m still trying to see where the good heart is hidden.

We were all filled with smile as my Dad speaks.

Suddenly Melinda suggested that we should all talk about how we got to meet our spouse or partner. I have already told her before, I wonder why she was bringing it up again. I know Melinda is always mischievous and maybe looking for a way to prove a point but I didn’t see where the whole talk will lead to until she suggest that me and Ohio should start first.

When I try to speak she hushed.
