ACCIDENTAL PROPOSAL

Aurora's lids opened and she stared at the white ceiling her.

The voice of a news broadcaster from the TV echoed in her ears, doubling the throbbing aching pain in her head.

"The Kim family! Even the rich and famous are awed by the wealth that surrounds them.A family of idols and beauties. Of Course the saying the beautiful ones are not yet born doesn't apply to the Kims because these besties are from the future and talking about wealth, you got that right, your own and favorite is once again at the top of the youngest billionaires chart, handsome Kim Aguero..a spectacular.. young..

Then she saw a blurred image of her mother walking over to the center table and shutting down the old '60's tv set that was situated on the old wooden center table and walking back towards her,she rubbed her tired eyes yawning.

Her mother touched her comfortably on the shoulder.

"Are you okay honey? You must have been stressed out from yesterday's work".

She said putting down the cup of coffee on a table nearest to the old mattress where Aurora was lying.

Hands on her waist,she looked around the room not satisfied with its untidy condition,her eyes wandered back to Aurora.

Yawning, Aurora sat up on the bed lazily and stretched her body with a soft groan.

"I am a fine mother, thanks for the coffee,"she said with a soft smile.

Just then her twin nieces raced into the room.

"Aunty Aurora look, we found this old picture of you in Grandma's old box"they chorused, showing her the old picture.

The picture was a photograph of her as a high school student.

Her sharp light brown eyes shining through her glasses,long dark brown hair, nicely shaped brows,a well tanned body and a face covered with freckles just below her eyebags and across her nose bridge.

Without much glance at the picture,she shifted her eyes to her overexcited twin nieces and smiled softly at them.

At twenty four,she had no illusions about her appearance, herself,or other members of the human race, including men.

Especially men.

She had decided what she wanted at 11 ,to take the responsibility of her family and make her mom happy and proud. Now she had made it halfway to her dream of being a five star restaurateur.

"Thank you guys".

The twins giggled softly. Mina and Lina were not so different and shared the same brain cells;it's hard to tell them apart even by their birth mom Posha, Aurora's immediate younger sister.

"She looks just like me!"Mina commented.

"That's not true ,she looks just like me!"Lina protested.

Aurora chuckled at their little argument.

"I look just like you two"She said and pecked their foreheads.

"Weeeee!"

The twins shouted in excitement and ran out of the house.

"Be Careful!"Mother cautioned them.

"Where is Posha?"Aurora asked her mom as she stood up on her feet and walked into their tight space bathroom to brush.

It was a one room apartment with only a curtain separating the kitchen from the living room which also serves as their bedroom for the whole family.

"She is yet to come back home".

Her mother replied sadly,and went on arranging the mattresses and clothes scattered around the corners of the room.

"She really needs to be an advised mother,she can't just continue messing around, get pregnant and dump the babies for you and then get back to sleeping around. What kind of a role model is she going to be to her twin girls?"

Mother sighed deeply with a pale look on her face.

"Posha doesn't listen to me anymore,ever since she started hanging out with that stranger guy and then she gave birth to the twins, she's just out of control".

Aurora ran the tap and rinsed her toothbrush,after she walked out of the bathroom.

"It'll be alright mother, please don't think hard of Posha,I'll talk to her myself" she sighed, "again."

Mother smiled at her.

"Thanks alot dear".

Aurora helped her with the room arrangements then she walked towards the kitchen to make toast for breakfast,soon the twins and her youngest sibling Bryann would come in to cry hunger.

"Aurora dear...

Her mother's voice came

"Yes mother".

Aurora paused, patiently waiting to hear her out.

"I hope you won't get mad..but..your brother Bryan..he came home yesterday requesting for his Tuition fees also the twins...".

"Don't worry about that mother we will be paid tomorrow,I will settle all of that as soon as I get paid"She assured her.

"What would I have done without you,I am so proud,if only I begot another you instead of Posha".

She lamented.

"Mother I got this, don't worry about Posha please".

Just then Bryan drew the curtain, gasping out breathlessly.

The seventeen year old who seemed bigger than his age and taller than his two elder sisters, walked into the room with his shirt soaked with sweat and his head bruised,Aurora was fast to notice.

"Good Morning mother,...sister".

"What happened to you?"Aurora demanded,drawing closer to him for a good look.

She tried to touch it but he jerked his head away from her.

"Ouch.. sister!"

He groaned,his voice a mixture of pain and fury.

"Got into a fight again?"

Mother asked angrily,her hands folded and head tilted.

"Yes".

"You got into a fight!"Aurora snapped with a flick of finger on his forehead to discipline him.

"Ouch!..I had to, okay!"

His outburst magically caught their full attention, Bryan continued now softly.

"He insulted my family,he called us family of bastard and sluts that he fucked Posha the other day,I told him not to repeat it but the fool did say it again and I had to defend my family by teaching him a lesson"he said.

"Oh really so how come you are beaten up this much" Aurora said trying to hide the emotions stirring up inside of her after hearing his story.

"Well he is a rich kid and got a lot of friends so they all gang up and hit me"he replied shamefully.

"Oh my God!'

Mother sighed.

"Who is he?''Aurora enquired and put a consultative hand over her mother's shoulder to calm her.

"Nathan Dawn from the next neighborhood,"he replied.

Their mother took the electric kettle from the wooden cupboard and plugged to a nearby socket before thumbing the switch.

"Maybe next time ignoring them will be better"Mother said as she returned to examine his bruised face after she went back to the whistling electric kettle.

"Never! He has no manners so I will teach him how to get one"Bryan stated with finality.

"Well, he is definitely not the one with a bruised face and swollen eyes"Aurora pointed out.

"Well that's because they are four against one,"Bryan said in defense.

"You have to be careful Bryan ,who knows what those boys are capable of,they might be armed secretly"Aurora said with concern.

"Here".

Mother handed him a hot towel and some pain relief tablets,Aurora brought a glass of water for him.

"Thanks"he muttered and swallowed the pills.

"I will get ready for work now,please I want you to take good care of my mother and the twins while I am away. Also please don't listen to Posha".Aurora pleaded, "and most importantly no fighting."

Bryan nodded and excused himself with the towel placed on his temple.

Shortly, his voice was heard outside answering every question from his curious nieces acting as interviewers.

Aurora undressed to take her bath while her mother took the laundry basket to their old washing machine.

*****

Shelley stared across the restaurant table at Kim Aguero.

Kim Aguero was a mixture feminine and Masculine,he was considerably much taller than her seven feet height,Jade green eyes, neatly sculpted lips and high- ridged nose and perfectly outlined jaw,his features would be compared to that of a fallen angel.

Though casual his clothes were excellent and sense of fashion top-notch,the white slik hugged on his hard chest and the unbuttoned front revealing a thirsty grip of his hard abs with a locker necklace hanging in between.

He is the sexiest man for most women. They rest consider him too beautiful to be straight.

"Okay let's get this straight pretty boy,You want me to pretend that I am your fiancee for how long?"

"You sound either too cool,I expect you to say yes without further explanation"Aguero replied roughly but yet his voice was as deep as the ocean and had this sensual triggering to it that sent something shivering over Shelley's nerves.

She licked her lower lip.

"Well don't get too full of yourself,I can still say no if I want to".

His glance shifted to her cleavage, secretly he compared her full bosom to the girl he had last night.

Apart from her cleavage, her pale flawless face and long Blonde hair that goes well with her light blue eyes doesn't seem to impress him.

"We have a deal then."

He said with one eyebrow quirked.

Shelley smiled back and shook her head with a cigar clamped in-between her teeth.

Aguero clicked his fingers and the serious looking man on black suit standing beside him gave her an envelope.

"It's interestingly fat."she chuckled with excitement.

"100,000 us dollars will do that to any envelope" he smiled.

Shelley peeped into the envelope in doubt but the sight of the thousand dollar bills cleared every air of doubt,she looked up with a long grin on her face.

Exhaling a cloud of smoke from her mouth ,she chuckled softly.

"I didn't expect less from Kim Aguero himself."

"Good for you then ,so all you have to do is come into the room next morning and get into your character".

"Why not take me with you tonight Kim or am I not good enough for you."

He stopped and his eyes moved around her body lustly as if they were stripping her,in quest to win him over with her sexiness, Shelley massaged her massive boobs licking her lower lip.

His eyes followed the moist pink of her tongue.

"You are average even for a one night stand, I go for the best"Aguero stated with a mocking smirk on his lips.

"That's rude,I have dated princes and men richer and more good looking"Shelley boasted trying to hide her annoyance.

"When it comes to sex,not every man is gifted with the gift to maintain standards so I am not surprised with your honorable mentions"he smiled.

"You are one spoiled brat", she sneered, followed by a deep sigh,"What if I do it for free."Shelley persisted.

A night with Kim Aguero is something she can't possibly choose to let go,no sane woman could!

"That's not the issue,I would rather if you say...you want to show an appreciation for the contract that I gave you"he smiled.

"I have never had difficulty in seducing a man no matter his class not to talk of a womanizer like you"Shelley confessed and leaned back on her chair.

She ran her fingers across her hair in frustration.

"Giving in for a trial won't be bad,meet me in the hostel room slut, better make me happy with your skills,I hate boring ladies."

Shelly's finely curved mouth shifted into a double edged, frankly sensual smile.

"What can I say,I am honored".
