Shouldn't Have Kissed You novel Chapter 24

Now I know how wrong I was,

But if you say you forgive,

I promise I won't judge you gain,

Please give me another chance in your life,

Because I'm no perfect after all,

I'm down on my knees,

I know.

Chris finished singing the last part of his new song and walked out of the booth. He was at studio recording his audio with his producer and so far, everything was going so well but there was something that was a mess in his life. If only...

"That was so emotional," said his producer getting up from his seat. "Wanna talk about it?"

Of course, he did want to talk about it. Talk about his one past month of silent treatment from his own wife. She said nothing to him and neither did she spare even a glance to him. And that, that bothered him way way too much than he cared admit.

He didn't know why, but every time she came home she ate nothing instead, she would go straight to their bedroom and when he followed her to ask her to go down stairs to grab her food to eat, she would just walk to the bathroom and get changed. After wards, she would either go out or sleep on the floor despite him telling her every day that she could take a couch.

Chris knew he brought this upon himself but he was sorry. He was sorry for his silly moves and for his thinking. But from that day he had changed and she could see that. She could tell it since he didn't stop her from going out with Leonel. He didn't even ask when she came past midnight.

All he wanted was for them to be friends. He wanted another chance with her. He wanted to start all over again but it's like she doesn't exist in his life. She doesn't even acknowledge him when he is around anywhere she is and it really hurts him. It does.

So for the past one month, he thought of draining his sorrow in his music. Yes, music. It wasn't his best talent but what other way to let it out? It was his only way to let go his the argue that he felt bottling up inside him. His way of saying sorry to her, if she cared to listen to the music.

So everyday, he would drag himself to the company where he would sign all the documents that need to be signed then, in the afternoon would be spent in the studio recording his songs and making some changes in them.

And today was the last day of the record and he couldn't be any happier. He was spent for the whole month. I mean, morning meetings and afternoon full of needing energy and then a evening with silent treatment. Who wouldn't be anyway?

"What do we call the album?" Chris asked his manager pulling out a drink from a fridge that was at far end. Of course he was avoiding the discussion of his personal life.

He walked back to one of his seat and pulled his own seat to sit on with the cold drink on his hand.

"How about I'm sorry?" his manager asked. "I mean, all your songs here are basically apologies to whoever you offended and it seems they won't forgive you."

Chris smirked at him, "I would say that that is a good title but there are so many songs with the word and I need a unique, title?"

"Of course," his manager smiled at him. "How about heartbreak?"

Chris this time laughed, " Remind me why I make you my manager again?" He asked taking a sip of his drink. "Because heartbreak is the name of Chris Brown's album, remember?"

"Yeah, sure," he said rubbing his already messy hair, "but you got to admit I got a good sense of humour."

Chris gave him him a weak smile. He had met his manager when he was still in highschool. Actually he was the one who discovered him on a street battle. Of course, he did street battle in order to earn money for his school fees and to also help his mum around the house.

His life wasn't always a bed of roses at all. He had his own share of ups and downs but he managed to get out of the situation they were in. And that, that was because there is no situation that is permanent. It's just always about us giving our best and getting out of where we're.

And that's what Chris did. His mum did two jobs to pay for bills and his nanny who took care of him since he was ten. The one who was there to remind him that nothing is impossible as long as you put your mind in it. So, although singing wasn't his number one, he gave himself chance. A chance that changed his life.

His music was loved by many and that music made him go to university without struggling to get fee. It paid for his designing career and he couldn't complain at all. So when he had a little savings, he invested in a starting company where he bought two shares. He knew that wasn't his dream but one has to start from somewhere.

So with his music and him being a shareholder of a starting company, he saved all the money he got. But first, he had to make his mother and nanny comfortable in their own house. A place where they would be rent free. And he did.

He bought a house for them and moved them in. He would go to visit every weekend since the house wasn't where he worked. So him being the determined person he was, he got to learn more skills from his boss and he loved her critic. She was always honest to him and everyone around her.

If she didn't like your design, then she didn't. If she saw a mess, she didn't sugar cot it for you at all. And that made him the person he was today. And for that, he was greatful. And as for his manager, he marketed his first album which turned out to be a great his of all time.

That is what made him so famous and everything. His second album came around and still, it was a great hit but not like the first one. Then the company happened. He started his company and it wasn't easy. Again, no one said it was going to be easy. And with that, his focus went to his company. For the past two years, he didn't think of his music but he did perform when he got the chance and the time.

I mean, that's how he met Maya. When he was performing and that's how he got the chance to kiss those lips that were so full and so tempting and since that day wasn't the same again. Yes, it wasn't the same because when he kissed Kimberly, he hoped that he would feel how he felt when he kissed Maya but he felt nothing. No spark, no nothing.

Then after one month she showed up again. Wanting him to marry her and he did marry her because of her father. He was the governor and he feared that he would say something that would compromise his business. So in order to protect his business, he married her and he made it his mission to make her pay.
