Aidan's POV
I find the neighborhood where Evelyn stays messy. I can't believe my baby mother is staying in this environment which is not fit for a woman with pregnancies to be staying in.
No wonder her mother called herself a nobody.
Why then is she saying she has good work when she can't afford a good home for her daughter and grandchild?
"Fuck!" I curse and come out of the car. I used my GPS to get the location. I walk through the alley and see the address number on the house in front of me.
I walk towards it quickly, cursing beneath my breath when a dirty-looking dog barks at me. I am quite amazed that I am scared of the dog, I don't know if it's because the dog is dirty or because it is barking.
I heave a sigh of relief when I get to the door. The dog has retreated when I am no longer in sight. I wonder why the dog is barking at me in broad daylight. I also can't help but wonder if the dog is theirs or for a neighbor's.
I puff out the air I didn't know I was holding in and knock at the door. The door is creaking like it will go down soon and it also looks dirty with the brown color. I knock again despite my irritation, I didn't hear any response.
Aren't they home? I ask inwardly and knock again, loudly.
If Evelyn is home, I will be glad to laugh in her face at how shabby the house is. I want her to be aware of my presence in her home because I have no intention of coming back here again for the second time. If the daughter isn't around, I will tell Evelyn to ask her to come to see me in my office since I had to waste my time coming here for nothing.
Someone pulls the door open, making me startled because I already think no one is home and I am already thinking of going back to the office.
"How can I help you?" Her voice pulls me out of my reverie as I watch the girl before me.
Seeing her again brings back the memories of the night we first met, how we argued and had sex on the toilet slab. I never knew she was this pretty, I guess it is because I paid little attention to her looks, I was only bent on having sex with her to prove to her that I can have any woman I want to have.
I do not need to seduce any woman but I found myself seducing the girl before me that night. That was what I did, I admitted the fact that I seduced her to myself, after the hot quick sex in the washroom.
I didn't take notice of her beauty because of how drunk she was with disheveled hair around her face that night. I only liked the challenge she put at me which was what attracted me to have sex with her.
She is looking at me intensely, the same way I stand in silence watching her. She suddenly gasp as a hint of recognition flashed across her face.
I can't believe my baby mama is the one standing before me, I am expecting to see an unkempt lady, drunk just like the other day and looking miserable.
But here before me is a beauty and a neat lady in a white crop sweater, grey and white plaid pants with converse sneakers. Her hair is packed into a ponytail showing the outline of her face and how smooth her skin color looks.
I stand staring at her till she opens her mouth and asks me. "Are you Aidan Alvarez?"

Anna's POV
A new page has begin already. Never in my wildest dream have I imagined Aidan will come looking for me and on a day like this that I have decided to let go of everything and start a new life.
What is he doing here? How did he know where I live? How did he know about my pregnancy? Did mother go to meet him like she said she would, despite my protest? Why is he here?
He looks more real and damn handsome than he looks in pictures. I always view him as a Greek god who is fictional anytime I come across his picture. I have started paying close attention to his picture and every news that concerns him, ever since I got to know he is my baby father.
Standing here before me is a hot, good-looking guy in a blue well-tailored Armani suit and black shiny suede shoes. His face is smooth and clean with his pointed nose and blue eyes. His jawline is set straight and he is looking pointedly at me.
I am still in my school dress. Even though I ate breakfast before leaving home this morning, I came back from school with my stomach rumbling continuously. I had dropped my bag in the living room and gone straight to the kitchen to find something to eat. I did not bother to go into my room to change my clothes.
I ate while thinking about my life. I had just finished eating and was about to go to my room to change into something simple when I heard the knock on the door.
"Yes, I am Aidan Alvarez, can I come in?" He asks softly, pulling me out of my thoughts.
I gulp and nod before stepping aside for him to enter. I see him looking around the living room with irritation on his face. I have a lot of questions to ask him about how he got to find me but I can't ask him.
"What are you doing here?"
"Is this where you live?" We both ask each other at the same time.
"Yes", I answer. "I live here with my mother."
"I see", he is still looking around, conscious of how poor our home is. This is where I have lived for 15 years of my life and I have never seen anything wrong with it. But Aidan's presence is letting me take note of how poor it is.
"Please, sit", I say to him politely.
"No, I am fine this way."
I am ashamed and disappointed that he can't even hide his displeasure in coming here.
Why is he even here in the first place?
"How can I help you?" I question.
"Are you really pregnant?" He gazes at me as if trying to figure out if I would lie or not.
