《HEALED ME》chapter Twelve.
Advertisement
It is Monday and we have a big business deal to finish,problem is the CEO is no where to be found. It is 10:00am,the meeting is supposed to start in one hour but Matthew hasn't arrived yet and all his phones are off.
I don't want to panic but I cant help it. This is the first time this is happening.
I am snapped out of my daze when my phone vibrates;
"Hey Matt,where the hell are you? The freaking meeting is supposed to start in an hour and you are not here.",I literally yelled over the phone.
"Am sorry man,I don't know what happened.I didn't hear my alarm go off so I slept",Matt replied sounding panicked.
"I don't know how you going to do it but I want you here in 30minutes ",I yelled and hung up on him.
This deal was very important for business that is why I was hard on my boss.
I slowly turn to my side when a ray of sun shines straight to my eyes. I blink only to realise its shinning bright outside.
I panic.I have a very important meeting at office and cant fail to make it. Benjamin is there but he cant do without me. I check the time and it is 9:00am.
"Holy shit",I mumble as I jump out bed,rush to the bathroom,hurriedly brush my teeth,shower and dress up.
I call Benjamin and he is furious but I don't blame him. I would have done the same.
After getting off the phone with Benji,I change a crying quisha's diaper,wake Toya and Leon and have them brush their teeth very fast as I look for what they are to wear.They have so many clothes but I can't see any because am panicking. I just choose randomly.

"Daddy aren't we going to school today"asked Toya who I was helping get into a a pair of leggings and shirt.
"No honey,Daddy over slept and you are late so you are going with me to office",I replied.
"yeeeyyyy,no school no school",Toya and leon celebrated as I helped leon get into his clothes,a pair of khaki shorts and a grey t-shirt.Though I was panicking,I couldn't fail to smile at my children's silliness.
"We are going to see aunty Lynda and uncle Benji",Toya excitedly told Leon.
My children love lynda and Benji. Anyway they are the only people allowed near them apart from when they are at school.
I grab the diaper bag and quisha and we head out.
Thankfully,there was no traffic and we managed to get to my office building at 10:30am. Atleast I had 30minutes to freshen up and get ready for the meeting.
Lynda took the kids for breakfast as me and Benji settled down to prepare for the big meeting. The meeting was a success but I was a mess.
"Still not allowing a nanny?",Benji asked interrupting my thoughts on how I almost messed up my own business.
"Man,I don't know. But from what happened today I may reconsider",I replied sincerely.
"Atleast we are getting somewhere",Benji chuckled.
We continued talking as we worked until Lynda entered my office without knocking with a wailing quisha closely followed by Toya and Leon who were fighting over a Lego.
"Matthew William Bentley,I can't do it anymore. You need a nanny",yelled Lynda clearly frustrated as she handed a crying quisha to me and stomped out of my office furious.
I tried soothing quisha but she wouldn't quiet down ,Toya and Leon were also shouting.

I felt dizzy till I snapped,"CAN YOU GUYS QUIT SHOUTING".
The room was filled with silence. I realised I had shouted at my children,they all looked scared ,their faces scrunched and they burst into tears.
"I am sorry babies,I didn't mean to shout and scare you. Dada is just tired and stressed",I apologized as I bent down and hugged them.
"sorry daddy ,I will not be naughty",said Toya as she looked at me with her tear stained eyes.
"Sorry Dada",Leon said as he buried his face in my chest and cried some more.
Quisha started to quiet down but I knew something was wrong with her.And It hurt me that I couldn't figure it out.
This was it. I was losing my mind. Painfully,I admit I need help.
I called Lynda and told her to put up the post for a nanny on the job website.
"Finally",she said as she went out of my office. Atleast she was smiling now.
Lynda P.O.V
I still can't believe Matt agreed to hiring a nanny. After his children's meltdown today,I guess his senses were shot back and he realised he needed help.
I immediately logged to the job advert website and posted our vacancy.
"Hope someone applies as early as tomorrow",I thought to myself.
This is how the advert goes :
"URGENT! URGENT!
Fulltime Nanny needed for three adorable children age range of 1-6years. Call 0800345618 if interested.
I re-read the advert and then posted. Waiting for a few minutes before logging out.
