mhizv:Alright, I will look into it, I hope you help me gain fans when I start |
Chapter 33. After our mind blowing kiss we arrived at the airport and there was a Lamborghini already waiting for us, so we are current driving to his resident in his fancy car. "Am I going too fast" he asked as he steps on the gas. "Yes you are" I replied but strangely I am not a little bit scared, maybe it's because of the way he handles the stirring or just because of the confidence oozing out from him. Standing beside him is like standing beside an army of thousands. He gave me a side glance and smiled, if he knows how sexy he is when he does that he should ask for a thousand buck before he does it, I will really pay. "Just up ahead is my residence" Calabar is beautiful, calm and cool, I don't mind spending my days here. The residence came into view and it is a marvel of mankind, the big get opens and I gasped. Its not like Henry's mansion, its simple with big lawn, flowers adding more beauty, the house is painted white and I have never seen anything like that, it doesn't look like a house you see in Nigeria. Its simple but unique, he drove to his parking lot and a lot more fancy is here. "Is this your permanent residence?" I asked as he opened the door for me. "Yes, though I am hardly around this is my parents house so after I became an adult and left Henry's house I have been living here" "Wow, I don't know how much surprise I can take in a single night" I said and he smiled. "Come on" he led me out and saw a man dressed on cooperate. "Welcome sir" the man greets him. "How have you been?" Alfa asked "Fine sir" "Good evening sir" I greeted since he is old enough to be my father. "Goodevenning" he replied. "This is my guest, you can retire for the night" Alfa more like ordered and the man gave a now before leaving. "You are bossy, you know" I said and he just shrugged. Well who in his shoes wouldn't be bossy, I still love him like that. "Come on lets go inside" he said and led me inside, I saw no maid no servants and it surprised me. "No servants?" I asked while at the doorsteps. "Nope, they always come at 12 or so to tidy up the house mostly when I am not around, I don't like people that has no relation with me being around me always" he said then led me inside the house. I forgot what I was about to say when I saw the interior of the house. He is truly living in heaven, one surprise after another. "You truly are rich" I muttered and he chuckles. "Make yourself at home, let me fix up something" he said then left me, I just nodded as I walked slowly around. Normal me wouldn't move an inch from where he left me but now I want to see everything in this house. I arrived at a hallway and pictures were hanged on each side of the wall, I instantly knew this is pictures from his childhood and his parents. I saw a potriat of his father and mother, his father is tall just like him but he has his mothers eyes. I saw countless others of him with his father and even the one he is playing, I giggled as I saw the one he is crying as a toddler. "Your cuteness runs deep" I said and moved along to see an art portraits of him together with his father and mother. Its weird because he looks as if he is 10 years here but his mom died at child birth. I will have to find out, I left the hallway to go down further, another amazing thing is which ever room you enters the light flips on like it sensed your presences. This is just a smile room, I have seen many other rooms like this. I left it and came down to what seem like an underground, it has a pool but I can still see the night sky, am guessing it's an outstretched of the house. Not wanting to go back where I can from I followed another door and entered what seem like a bar, has seats to contain like hundred people, also it has a snooker table. This house really have everything, I left there to enter a big kitchen, bigger than most hotel kitchen, funny thing about this house is every part of it is clean no dust or dirt, I guess the servants really get their job done. I left there since the kitchen us reminding me of my hunger, I remember he said he want to fix something, is it food? I have been trying to head back to the entrance but its harder than I think, how embarrassing that I got lost inside a house, I refused to call him, knowing his personality he will give me an ear full. I kept opening door after door trying to get back but instead am seeing new things. Now that I think about it this house is bigger than it looks, way bigger. "Your back is missing its usual confidence" I said once I entered what seem like a smaller kitchen, he is backing me and his head is hung low. He turned to me and tears are on his eyes and I noticed the smoke coming out from the pan on the fire. "I.... was... trying to fix you something" he sniffs at each words, "it turns out I have zero cooking skills" he sniffs and wipes his nose with back of his palm. I gushed at how cute he is, I walked over to him and held his hands "Is that why you're crying" I asked holding down my laughter. "Am not crying, the onions made my eyes teary" he pointed at the onions "I endured it but why slicing the pepper I wiped my tears with my hands making it worse and my eyes puffy red" he pouts, I could no longer see clearly and the meet I was frying got burnt." he showed me his fingers "I also cut myself" I giggled because I can no longer hold it down. "My misery happens to be your entertainment" he pouts. "Zero sense of direction, zero cooking skills, what other zero do you have?" I asked smiling and he smiled too. "I guess we have to find out" he replied. "So what we're you trying to cook" I asked. "Fried Rice, I swear I have watched it been made like a thousand times" he replied. I am already too hungry to start cooking it but I guess it's what he wants. "Maybe it's the hunger interfarring with my brains" is there no end to his cuteness, I lost myself and kissed him. "You are welcome to shut me up like this anytime" he smiled. I can't believe how much I am letting go this night. "Can we just fix something simple to eat and watch Naruto along the way" I suggested. "Splendid" he went to the fridge and brought out bread and also butter "or would you like mayonnaise or any sort of cream" he asked. "Butter is just fine" he placed the bread, butter and the table knife to scoop the butter with in a silver tray. "Which beverage would you like?" I trying not to think much since there is an excess of everything. "Let's make tea" he pressed out some hot water from the dispenser and made the tea, I wanted to help me but he stopped me, I guess he want to prepare all the dish himself. "Follow me Bunny" he said as he led me out from the kitchen then to a palour with a very big tv screen, there is no sofa or chair around just a few fluffy looking big pillow sort of, it looks like the inside is stuffed with wool and its very comfortable to sit on or even lie on. We sat together in one and he placed the tray down then switched on the tv and Naruto movie the last started playing. "Wow, seems that is what you were watching when last you were here" I asked and he nodded. He dressed my bread with butter for me and we started eating. We talked about Naruto and who are favourite character is, it is the best type of fun. "You have no idea how long I have been waiting to do this" he said as he wipes away the butter beside my lips. "If you mean sitting beside someone like you and watching my favourite anime? Then I am on the same page with you" I replied. "I guess it's the best type of date" I nodded, my best type of date is sitting alone with my date and watching Naruto or through. The rest of the night was spent in each other arms as we make little conversation and I keep laughing because you can't imagine how funny he is, he always knows how to make me feel relax and live only in the moment. I have no dress with me and when I first came here I thought he would be eager to see the color of my undies that he requested me to wear. No he didn't do such instead he kept entertaining me with his childhood stories and anything that brings a smile to my face. When I am with him I hardly think of yesterday or bother about tomorrow, all I am thinking is being here with him right now. Alfa is really the love of my life and I realize that the moment I saw him on my doorsteps early today, he is everything I ever want in a man, dear angel make my prayers a reality. |

Chapter 32 I have never been a plane before, the closest I have gotten to a plane was during my secondary school excursion. Now I am going to fly in a private jet, which Angel is in charge of my life right now, you deserve an award. "We are going to fly in it" I stated looking at him and he nodded with a smile. "Come on Bunny, let's go" he said and led me inside, I gasped as I saw the interior, it doesn't look like a plane, it's like a house. The seats were facing each other and a table in between them. I am so mesmerized with the view before me that I didn't answer the greeting the air hostess gave me. "Are you done with admiring, we need to sit down for the pilot to fly away" He said and I nodded. He helped me with my seat belt since I know nothing, he then went to seat opposite me. "Can you seat beside me?" I asked and he smiled and obliged me, he intertwined our hands after fastening his seat belt. "We are about to take off, please fasten your seat beat" The pilot voice came through from the speaker but I can't see the speakers. I lay back as I felt the Jet moves, I know it's moving faster than it seems, I held on to him tighter and he chuckles. Not long I felt swayed as the Jet takes off, funny I am hardly hearing the sound of the jet, I felt some turbulence but not enough to make me jump. "You can remove your belts and move freely" The Pilot said again and Alfa took the belt off and went and sat opposite me, I guess he really love that seat. "You no longer need to close your eyes to picture yourself flying because you're flying Bunny" he said with the same grin he has since this evening. "When you say things like this with your husky voice it becomes romantic." I said and he chuckles. "Is this yours or you hired it" I asked because I know it's quite expensive. "It's mine, I bought it last 2 years together with a Yatch" he said then snapped his finger for the air hostesses to do something. "You bought it together with a Yatch" I am beyond surprise "how rich are you really?" I asked because I still cant see him as the rich C.E.O. "Rich enough to never feel inferior in any place in the world, even if it's a dinner party with England Royalties" his statement left me in a total shock. "Close your lips Bunny or flies my enter" he chuckles as the hostess brought a champagne with two classes. "Leave us" he ordered and they left, leaving us alone in this chamber. Being alone with him made me shy all of a sudden. "Don't try acting nice, it doesn't suit you" he said as he pours the wine. "Shut up, can't a girl be shy again?" I pouted and he gave me his killer side glance and scoffed. "What ever you do is cute" he smile and handed me my wine "Thanks for being here with me" he said and clicked his glass with me before taking a sip. I have never tasted this type of wine, it looks expensive, I took a sip. I can't describe how the bubbles feels in my mouth, it has a sour taste but you can't seem to have enough of it, the uniqueness is beautiful. "No wonder the monk that made it said he is tasting the stars" I moan and he smiled, there is more where that came from. I refuse to gulp it down at once no matter how tempted I am, I need to savour the taste. "Can you please stand up" he request and I was taken back, I don't want to stand on a jet that is so far up in the sky. "We will soon be arriving at Calabar Airport" so that's where we are going, I always feel safe with him so I don't bother with where we are going as long as we are there together. I stood up and he gentle nudge me to stand in the middle of the jet together with him, I can always feel the spark when he touches me. "I want to invade your every thought, I want to make you forget everything about any guy, I want you to even think of me when you think of you first kiss or your first boyfriend. I know I am really not your first but I want to make you forget what your first felt like and only think of me" he said and I am already trembling with his intense gaze. "That's something difficult" I mutter still held captive by his stare, I lied I can't even remember the name of my first boyfriend right now no matter how much I try and its just because he is starting deeply into my eyes. "We are about 33000 feet high, and here I am going to beat the record of the best kiss" Am already hearing the sound of my heart beat in my ear. "How" I whispered and he sealed my lips with his even before the words left my lips, I squeezed his shoulder tighter as I grabbed on to him for life. My legs feels like jelly I think he held on to me tighter because he felt I was falling. He deepened the kiss and I melted more into his touch, he is right he really have the power to make me forget what I ever had or who I ever dated before I met him, he is really an Alfa male. I hear people always saying how something or someone made them feel like they are on top of the world, I doubt any of them can beat what I am having now. Because right now I am at 33000 feet up on a very expensive jet kissing the best man ever created, so yes I am on top of the world. "Clearly this is what being on top the world feels like" he said and I am still speechless to speak, he is always saying what I am thinking making me feel like he invades my thought. "You just don't take a girl from her house, give her a ride in the most expensive car, make her fly a jet for the first time and kiss the hell out of her while this high in the sky" I barked while still breathing heavily. "There is only so much a girl can handle under one night". My heart us really threatening to burst out from my rips as I can hardly keep calm, he took my hand and placed it on his chest, his heart beat is in sync with mine. " I am as mesmerized as you are even though I planned it all" He smiled "I can't seem to get enough of you" I said and he smiled. "I..." I shut him up with a kiss, its my turn to surprise him, he took the lead before, now its my turn. Which ever Angel that is in charge of my life right now please don't get tired and ask another angel to do it, because you're just the best. A/N: Damn Alfa is super rich |

Chapter 29 It's been 3 days since I was fired, I have been trying Alfa's number for the past 3 days and its not connecting and it's devastating me the more. I rarely has the energy to do anything and my only source of joy is knowing my family is safe. *So how is mom recovery?* I asked chuks *She is getting really better and its not even up to a month, thanks to the high rank official that made sure they gave mom special attention* he replied and I knew he was talking about Alfa. *Do you still talk to him?* maybe I can ask for the number he is using to get him. *No since like 2 days now his phone has been off and he has not been online* I suppose he is cut from the world. *So how is your Boyfriend?* *We broke up* I said *Why?* *Long story, I will tell you when you get back* I replied nit feeling the need to tell h everything. *You sure you made the right choice, he save mom after all, even eldie wants to see him when he is chance* He calls my immediate younger brother Eldie. *Don't worry I will tell you everything later* *So have you made any friends over there* I asked as an attempt to shift the topic *Yes, a Nigerian girl but lives over here, she invited to their house today* all trust Chuks to makes friends. We kept discussing over things even spoke with my immediate younger brother we all had bonded together and did lots of catching up. I woke up with tge same empty feeling, loneliness is really bad, its painful knowing how your entire day will be spent it's more painful knowing you will spend me on your bed and doing nothing other than counting all your regrets. "This sucks" I said I stood up from bed to brush my teeth, I haven't done that for the past two days I now have bad breath. I really should start thinking of where to find work, I sent some money to my brother yesterday, if I keep sending out money like that I will end up being bankrupt, also my house rent is due. With no appetite to eat I decided to skip breakfast and go back to bed, I keep tossing and turning with sleep really far away from me. Maybe I should call Jessica and spend some time with her, you know the best cure to a bad relationship is a good friendship. I brought my phone to call her but my door alarm rang instead so I went and opened the door. The figure standing on my doorsteps took me by surprise that I had to shut the door back. "How is this possible?" I asked myself but he didn't give me the time to answer as he kept knocking. This is bad, I haven't even had my bath or really take the time to brush my teeth, I sniffed my cloth and its stinks and that's because I have been wearing it for the past two days. This is bad this is bad, I rushed away from the door hoping to tidy myself up before I open the door, I can't show him this bad side of me, my house is even a mess. On my table is the plate I used last night, then the suasage roll that I ate and unable to finish is resting on my couch, I just realize how dirty and negligence I have been. He knocked again jerking me up and prompting me to be faster, I stopped when mid way as I was taking the plate to the kitchen. I can not arrange the whole house on time or even tidy myself, he might be gone before am done thereby missing the only chance I have with him. Besides is so immature of me to shut the door on his face. I slump down, I still can't show him how much of a mess I am, even my hair is unkept. I rushed inside as I found the answer to all my problem, well most of it, I removed my dirty gown and put on tge big hoodie my brother bought for me and use the hood to cover my head, I rushed out to the sitting room and spray some air fresher and hid all unwanted material under the table. "Hi" I said a little out of breath as I opened the door, he just stood day looking at me from head to toe, I felt conscious of myself and think maybe the hoodie is too short to cover my laps. "You once promised to invite me over and make a meal for me" He said with his husky voice and it calmed my raging heart and I nearly moaned. "Did I?" I asked leaning on the door staring at the fine specimen in front of me. "Yes over the phone, so I have decided to invite myself over" he said. "You're such a beautiful creature" the words left my mouth before I could control it and he threw his head back and gave me his throaty laughter, I looked down out of embarrassment. "I get that a lot" he said, I found out that it's easier to let my feelings know now that I am not tied down with Henry's threat. "Will you invite me in or should we make out on the doorsteps" he asked without having the slightest idea of how many times I have kissed him in my head. "Come in" I said keeping a distance so be won't have to perceive how awful I smell. "Nice apartment" He said as he walked inside looking at the pictures hanging on the walls. "So what can I offer you?" I asked. "Isn't vegetable our tradition?" he asked and I smiled. "Of course" I happily rushed to kitchen and brought out the frozen Vegetable soup, I could it yesterday as I kept thinking of him. I defroze it and also made semovita for him, I occasionally come to peep at him as he just stroll around watching the pictures, he sometimes chuckles when he looks at my picture. He doesn't look sad or angry that's a good thing. I have always been confidence in my cooking skills but for some reason I am scared he might not like it, I am also sweating like a Christmas goat because of the hoodie. "Are you scared I might not like it" He said after looking between me and the food. "Noooo" I said pretending like I don't care. "Why not we eat together?" he suggested and I washed my hands waiting for him to take the first taste. "I think this is what my mothers food would've taste like if I was privileged to taste it" he said with his eyes closed after taking the first morsel, I felt so proud that he placed me with his Mother. "How come you're here?" I asked for starters he has zero direction skills. "I got your info from the company then since morning I have been asking around how to get to your house" he looked at me "its no fun at all, but you know, nothing can't be accomplished as long as you're determined" he said and continued eating. I watched as he eat and I k ow I will never get bored of this face even after eternity. "Haven't your mama told you staring is wrong?" he said with his right eyebrow raised. "Sorry, it's just unbelievable that you're here" I said. "Well I was angry, then sad but in the end the urge to see you is far greater than any other feeling" he said with a shrug. "Real....." he cuts me off before I could finish "But I am still angry though" he points out. "I am sorry, I had no choice" I said sadly. "Well I am all ears tell me your story" he said |
You guys hate my sweet beautiful cute Bunny Rose. But who really will take such chances when her mother and Brother is in the hands of the enemy |
Chapter 28 I kept looking for Henry but he is no where to be found, it's as if he vanished, nobody seems to know where he is not even his parents. I wanted to slam it on his face and tell him how good it is to be free from him, all this while I thought he saved my mom but it was actually Alfa who saved my mom. He is the real C.E.O. After searching for him and unable to find him I decided to go tell Alfa everything, he can tell Henry when he likes or I can tell him when next I see him, I can't imagine his face. I happily came outside only to see Henry standing beside Alfa and the look on Alfa face is really disappointing, I instantly knew something is wrong. I started seeing how wrong of me it was for leaving to find Henry instead of telling Alfa everything first. "Alfa" I called and he looked at me sadly, I looked at Henry and he had a sinister smile like he has triumphed once again. "Rose" He called and it weakened me, how can Henry always be ahead of me. "I can explain" I said coming closer and he motioned me to stop. "Wow" he said staring at the sky "No matter how much you remind me of Rose, no matter how attractive you are, no matter how irresistible you are" he looked at me "I had to resist, I had to force myslef believe it's a lost cause and it's dangerous having such feelings for my best friend woman." "Please Alfa I can explain" "Funny how I was feeling guilty think I was breaking one of the commandment 'Thou shall not covet thy neighbours wife" "But I am not his wife, or even his girlfriend" I said with tears. "Yes you're neither, you are just a play girl that is after the money" he said and left, he refused to answer no matter how much I called. "Stop" Henry stopped me as I tried to run after Alfa. "Leave me alone, what lies did you feed him" I hissed and he chuckled. "No lies, I just told him the true, that you're Rose and you know his is Mysterio but because you thought I am the C.E.O you refuse to tell him the truth and chose to be with me because you're a gold digger" "Why, how do you always get it right, how come you are always ahead" I asked with eyes filled with tears. "Well I am driven so I know how to be ahead of you" he shrugged. "It doesn't make sense" How come he sees today as the perfect opportunity to reveal the secret. "Well after dancing you left, I followed you and secretly watch as you two frolicked with each other, I was scared when he revealed his true identity and he is actually the one with your mother" he exhaled "I even thought you will reveal everything to him at that moment but for some reason you went back inside and I decided to reveal everything first, so I bested you" he smiles "How can you manipulate an innocent soul like his" I asked "It's easy, he has known me almost all his life so he believes my words above all others" he moved away a bit "and he is far from innocent, he killed Mirable" he hissed. So that's his anger, he is blaming Alfa for what he had no control over. "You are selfish, Isabelle told me about Mirabel today, you never had a chance even if Alfa never came into the picture" he turned back to me "She has always seen you as a brother, I guess it's because she grew up with you so you became a family to her, she fell for Alfa the first day she saw him. Funny Alfa refused her request because he knew of your feelings for her, he denied her and also denying himself his own first love just because he placed you above" I told him and for a moment his features changed, only for a moment. "If that's the case if he was a considerate person he should know its never good to turn a girl down like that, if he did it better Mirabel wouldn't have driven his byke that night. We were still in secondary school why did he have a byke, if the byke wasn't there Mirable would've walked home or spend the night with a clear head" Isabelle was right, Humans accept whatever they want as the truth even when the real truth is right before their eyes. "You are just too selfish to see your own flaws" I said and started walking away fastly, I need to explain things to Alfa but I don't even know where to search. I stopped and brought out my phone to call him but instead Henry's call entered, I turn to see him smiling. "Don't you want to hear how I manipulated everything" he yelled, you might think me fool for being curious but I had to know since I have no way to find Alfa, I tried his number just now but it's switched off so I went closer to Henry. "How". "He always talk about you always saying how you meals look good, Alfa is very secretive so for the fact he is talking this much about you I knew you were special. I started waiting for an opportunity, luckily you guys quarrelled, he came over to my place really angry, I decided to take him to the club, while at the club I took his phone and scanned through some of your chats" he said and it scarred me how much of our chats he read, he may know my deepest secret, God don't let it happen. "Because I didn't have much time I wiped all your chat with him uninstall his WhatsApp and deleted your number from his phone" he smiled "I hid the phone and it was declared lost, he did the welcome back but because I deleted your number and cleared all chat but WhatsApp chat and sms he wasn't able to retrieve your number." "I started playing his role hoping to damage him like he damaged me, unfortunately most of my plan didn't work but gladly at the end it worked out and I broke him. If only he doesn't have 70% of the shares I it would-be easy to take the company too, well I have work more on it" he said with a shrug. "You did all these to a guy that sees you as a brother?" I asked. "And I feel nothing apart from the joy of being victorious" "I will tell him everything" I hissed. "He couldn't even listen to you here, what made you think you will ever see him again?" he asked and I got scared "you have no idea how world apart you guys are, he can move to London today or Canada and forget everything about you while you will just be here mourning over him" he laughs and left me. I kept trying his number all night, his both numbers but none of it was connecting, nothing seems to be working I slept in the pool of my own tears. I went to work like a ghost in the morning, I am really devastated. "Me Akin is asking of you" Esther told me when I came to work. "You don't look good" she showed care "Just a slight headache" I smiled. "Maybe the C.E.O has finally realize she is a gold digger" Timi said smiling I ignored her and went to see Mr. Akin. "Come in" he said after I knocked, I gently went in and sat down. "I don't know how to tell you this, I tried to convince him otherwise but he insisted, my hands are tied' Mr Akin said with much pity. What's wrong?" I asked already prepared for anything "Here" he handed an envelope to me, I opened it to see it's a sac letter. "I am fired?" I asked and he looked down. I might be ready for anything but not for this, this is Nigeria to find a decent job is not easy. I really need this job. How can I have this disappointment straight up, who did I offend? "Please, help me out" I pleaded with Mr.Akin while kneeling. "I can't, my hands are tied" "Can I go and see him" I asked referring to Henry since I am sure he is the one that fired me, Alfa doesn't really care much about such things. "He is not around, he travelled to Imo state this morning" he said and I knew he left so that I won't have to come begging. "Thanks" I said and managed to stand up. I left the office to go pack my belonging, people kept giving me a pitiful eyes some were happy I am going. "This is what you get for biting more than you can chew" Timi said as I left the office, I didn't see Esther she must have left for work. Why do I have to suffer this much, I stood outside the company with my box of belonging shedding silent tears. Henry tried to use me to make Alfa lose everything, at the end I am the one that lost everything, my job, my self esteem, my dream man. Maybe I lost as a repercussion of ganging up against and innocent soul. I am in so much pain that it hurts, it's hurts so much that I see no light at the end of the tunnel. "Life is pain and life greatest lessons are learnt through pain" that's what he would say if he is around, what is the unstoppable pain trying to teach me. "I can't seem to learn what this pain is trying to teach me, and I fear it will continue if I didn't learn, help me out Alfa" I muttered as I slowly walked home. Sometimes even tears are not enough to describe the pain we feel. |
Khriztarl:Just give me the address I am coming o, I need a woman in my life |
Chapter 27. I excused myself and left Henry to find Alfa, he said lots of things to me but I can't remember any single thing he said to me, I am being bothered by the sad look Alfa gave me before he disappeared. "So this is where you are hiding from the party" I said as I found him at the backyard away from the party, he looked at me and smile. "I needed the fresh air" he replied and came to sit beside him. "The stars look beautiful tonight" he said with his attention in the sky. "Yes they are" I replied and went to comfortable silence just watching the sky. They say love is not always looking at each others eyes but also looking at the same direction and loving it. I am loving the quiet time we are sharing now just starting at the sky. "Why hasn't she message me, Rose I mean, even if it's a single hello" he looked at me and i was crushed as his eyes are filled with tears. "She saved me from my loneliness, elevated me to the highest peak and I felt good but she left me on that top with nothing to hang on to." "I...am.....sorry" I said forcing the words out of my mouth as my throat is already tightened. "She left and I was lost once again then you came, you showed me warmth you found me made it impossible for me to differentiate between what I feel for you and what I feel for her. Unfortunately I came late, tonight I was reminded once again that I can't have what I desire." I bet Hnry told him something when I was with Isabelle. "I...." I am lost of words, he chuckles. "If you knew how your smile brightens my day How your hello lifts my spirit How your laughter is my favourite melody" he places his hands on top mine "Your touch the calm to my storm" he leans closer and sniffed "Your smell my flowery butterflies" he careses over my face and I leaned to his touch "How your face is my heaven" he leans his head back with his eyes closed "If you knew how you are my life, you will gladly stitch us permanently together." he said and stops like resist everything he feels. I hated myself this moment for being so weak for letting my mothers situation rule my life and holds my happiness. He sniffed and brushed away his tears, he stood and walked a way a bit then kicked the peeble on the ground and turned back to me. "Tell me where to go, to the right where nothing is left or to left where nothing is ever right" I wish I can tell him that I am both the left and the right and he doesn't need to go anywhere that I will just come towards him. "Once again I have to trade my happiness for what I owe" he said with a smile then turned to walk away but everything in my body all my DNA every muscle moved me towards him.amd I stopped him. "Just for tonight let's be happy" I said holding onto his sleeves, he turned to me with a sad smile. "Dance with me, there is nothing more I would ask for" He said and took me in a warm embrace as we waltz around. This is what I need, just the silence with his heat beat the only sound I hear, he poured his heart out and I am sorry I couldn't do the same, so just for tonight let me be in his embrace. We kept rolling around and I can think of is holding on to him forever, I want him to open up his body and carry me wherever he goes. I have never felt like this for anyone, this is stronger and after this I will work inside that house and give Henry a piece of my mind, am no longer interested in his games. I will report to his soster if I have to, am done being a puppet. His phone kept ringing while we dance so he decided to pick it. "Am sorry Bunny, looks like our little fun has come to an end" he said and I cursed whoever that is calling. "Ah, it's chuks" he said as he saw the caller ID, he excused himself and moved away a bit to answer the call, after 3 minutes he came back but it felt like forever. "It's a friend of mine" he said and I just nodded "that reminds I haven't bragged about it to you, a worker in the company her mother has Heart problem so I had to sponsor her medical bills. Chuks is her son that went with her to take care of her" He said smiling and something clicked in me. "Wait you said Chuks and heart surgery?" I asked. "Yes, Henry told me about it, come to think of it I am yet to know who" "Wait you are the one that sponsored the surgery?" I asked because I am 100% sure he is raking about my mom. "Yes, I personally took them to the hospital, she is such a wonderful woman also religious, too bad I haven't got the time to visit her since her surgery. Chuks always talk to me from time to time" I just remembered Chucks telling me about a high ranking official that helped them to settle in. "So you know where they're staying?" I asked. "Yes, they're staying at my house over there, the doctors now always come to check up on her" he said not wondering why all the questions. "How come you sponsored the surgery?" I asked because only the C.E.O has the right to use such amount of money. "Of course I am the owner of the company, I may not be the acting C.E.O because it's boring but I still have 70% of the shares so my words are final" "What?!" I screamed "you are the boss?" "Technically I am the boss of your boss. I am the owner of Maris Hostel and Suits. That's my mothers name, I inherited the company from my dad, though it's now bigger under my rule" he said bragging like the egomaniac he is. "So Henry is not the owner" he never had my mother and brother, they have always been safe with Alfa, he is even my saving grace not Henry. I felt so much relieved that I don't even know what to do. "Thanks" I said and jumped on him taking him by surprise. "You're welcome" He said still wondering what came over me. "I will be back" I said and rushed inside to go give Henry piece of my mind, I felt its only proper to end everything with him then come clean with Alfa, you know safe the best for the last. I am so happy now that the next I see Alfa I will do what I have always wanted to do to him from the first time I heard his husky voice. I will kiss the hell out of him.

Chapter 26 After the sweet hug we allsang Happy Birthday song for Mr. Collins and many of his business associate wished him a wonderful birthday, well dressed boys and girls were busy serving food and drinks. I know lots of people came here to meet high rank citizens, some senators are here. I was being dragged around by Henry as he introduce me to a whole lots of people even our company shareholders, I always look at Alfa's side and smile whenever our eyes meet each other. He is pretty popular as most of the ladies here are taking turns to speak with him, even the high ranking officials approached him and I was surprise how much respect they gave him. "Can I borrow her for a minute?" Isabelle requested to take me from Henry "Sure" he said and let go off me "Come I feel like we need to talk" she saif and dragged me to the bar, she is not a gentle type of lady. "So what do you think of this family?" she asked. "Cozy" I said as it's the first thing that popped into my mind "It's sure is. Stop looking at Alfa or Henry will get jealous" She said and I was drawn back to reality. "Was it that obvious" I asked shyly. "Yes it was, it will be sad if history repeat it self, as a matter of fact I called you over to talk to you in order to repeat history from repeating itself" she said then took a sip from the vodka the waiter poured for us when we first sat down. "What's the history about?" I asked. "I notice the way you and Alfa has been exchanging glances at each other and it's not proper since you're with Henry" "I am not dating Henry" I felt I should defend myself. "Henry is not someone that will introduce just any girl to our parents, maybe you are not dating him but you should make it know to them who you want to be with" if only I can tell her everything, who will believe that her brother is not the person she thinks he is. "I will try my best" "Mirabel said the same thing" she scoffs. "Who is Mirabel, this is the third time am hearing the name" "She was Henry's first love, before Alfa came to live with us Henry and Mirabel are always together doing everything there were the perfect couple. Then Alfa came to live with us, Henry was happy because it's like magically having a brother but things changed when Mirabel started playing more with Alfa" She exhaled. "Alfa needed the company so Henry tried to understand and be there for him. Alfa started slacking off in everything both studies and life, his future looked so bad and he started moving with bad crew" she took another sip. "Henry and Mirabel tried to get him back on track, it took them almost a year, Henry was happy because with Alfa being bad he now always has to be with Mirabel as they plan of ways to get Alfa back. Luckily it's started working and Alfa now showed more aptitude than Henry, he shined brighter in the eyes of Mirabel, no matter what Henry did Alfa always cast a big shadow over him. Even my parents seemed like they showed more care to Alfa than Henry, but what hurts him the most is Mirabel seeing Alfa as the best. I tried to tell him he has his own qualities like how he is better than Alfa that has zero sense of direction, how he is better than know how people feels than Alfa that doesn't really care about people only those he loves" she took another sip "None of that mattered, all he wanted was Mirabel, one day during their SS 2 he confessed his feelings for Mirabel and was rejected he blamed Alfa for it. Funny Mirable later confessed her feelings to Alfa and she was rejected too." she scoffed. "Being heart broken she went and took Alfa's favorite byke and drove off, unfortunately she died that day in an accident." she looks at me and her eyes is filled with tears. "I could've stopped her that day, she came crying to me and I told her she should consider Henry's proposal, I was trying to get my kid bro the girl of his dream, but Mirabel was disgusted she said to her Henry has always been a brother that she fell for Alfa the first day she saw her on her fathers burial and she was sure Alfa feels the same. She left that day from our house with Alfa's byke, I went to see Henry after and he was certain that if it wasn't for Alfa that Mirabel would've accepted, I couldnt find it in myself to tell him he never had a chance. We later heard the news of her accident and Alfa couldn't stop blaming himself for the accident, he thought if he accepted her feelings she might still be alive and in truth he loved her too but he knew of Henry's feelings so he decided to deny himself of his own." she looked at me "Looking at you now I think Alfa is sacrificung his feelings for Henry again, because he believes he owes alot to Henry. Though Alfa doesn't really care about people he still cares a whole for the people he loves and can sacrifice even his own happiness for them" "Why not tell them the truth" I believe if Henry finds out he never had a chance he will stop being angry at Alfa. "What truth, that I could've stopped Mirabel that day?" I see everybody has their own guilt. "No, that Henry never stood a chance and that Alfa was willing to trade his own happiness for him." Henry is playing the role of a victim while he is not. "Humans are complicated creatures, they want the truth but can't handle the truth if it's given to them. They only accept what they want as the truth" she said and I agreed with her. I remember when I started noticing Josh behaviour changing and people telling me he was cheating I didn't believe it because I don't want to. "Do you think Alfa has forgotten about Mirabel" I asked. "Well Alfa is not someone you can easily read unless he opens up, so I don't know if he has forgotten about her but I am sure Henry still think of her. I hope you help him to forget her and move on with his life, I hope Alfa finds happiness, he is someone that is always afraid to let people in because he us afraid of losing them. Just help them both" she said the gulped down her remaining drink "I will try my best" "Smile it's a birthday go out there and dance, Henry is waiting" she is feeling guilty for not stopping Mirabel and she hopes I can make everything right by knowing what happened in the past. Funny that even in this present Henry still doesn't stand a chance, I would've pitied him for always having Alfa's shadow over him if he isn't threatening me with my mom. I think he is just being greedy, he owns a company that Alfa works, so what if Alfa excels in other things, he still have things better than Alfa. "Come dance with me" Henry requested with his hands stretched out, I can't refuse since eyes are already on us I accepted so he took me to the dance floor. I caught a glimpse of Alfa while waltzing around with Henry, he looked sad, I watched as he left the ball room. This is going to be a long night. A/N: Quote of the day "Humans are complicated creatures, they want the truth but can't handle the truth if it's given to them. They only accept what they want as the truth". So how do you feel about Henry, its really bad when the girl you love, loves another that is always better than you noatter how you try. |
Chapter 25 It's already been an hour and he is suppose to be back by now so I am getting worried, I would've called him.but he left his phone in the car, how can a grown man be this carefree. I am wondering if it's best to go find him leaving the car here, though this is a lonely road there is no telling if the car will be robbed getting me more debt. After thinking I decided its best to go look for him because it's stupid weighing human life with drinks, lucky I saw him coming before I moved ten feet away from the car. He looked exhausted and sweaty, I pitied him but that won't stop me from giving him a piece of my mind. "I am back" he said with a grin "It's just a 30 minutes journey at most but you took more than one hour" "Sorry" "Sorry doesn't begin to cut it, I have always been taking car of things, worrying about lots of things now on top it all I have to be worried about you too?" I aske feeling frustrated with the level of shits I have always been worried about. "I went to the filling station easily but on my way back I took the wrong turn, I was far gone when I realize I took the wrong road, the grasses looks the same" he tried explaining. "I don't know how you have lived your life up to this moment with your zero sense of direction" I said and he came closer. "I may have zero sense of direction but I will always find my way back to you. So you don't have to worry about that" he said and that's all he needed to calm me down. I remember how he bumped into me after we lost contact, how he manage to find me at the eatry even with his zero sense of direction, how he still came back now even though this is his first time here. I want to tell him how much he means to me, how much I want him close, how much I want to pat his back and tell him he did good, above all I want to hug him and never let go. But I can't, because of the situation I have to lock my feelings and look the other way, nothing hurts more than a bottled up feelings. "Just pour the fuel and let's leave here" I said and he chuckles. "Sure Bunny" I went inside the car to clean the tears that has already dropped. "So off to the second customer" he said and I nodded. He kept following me to work everyday and we got closer, he always makes me forget my current situation, I still chat with my family and they are oblivious of the whole issue. My mom is healing nicely, Henry hasn't tried any stupid thing and Timi has laid off my back and am glad. "My fathers birthday is on Friday, I am hoping you would come?" Henry asked nicely and I know he will threaten me with my family if I refused so I don't want to give him that choice. "Do I have a choice?" I asked and he smiled. "No you don't" we are currently in his office, he called for me and I decided to go because avoid him too much will irk him. Alfa also stay away whenever I want to Henry, he is giving us the time and seeing himself as our best friend and the godfather to our children, he has no idea how that annoys me. "I hope you are not carried away by the charm of Alfa" Henry asked. "I think it's best we don't pry to each other lives" I said. "Well he is not what you think he is, he might be worst than I am" he said with a sinister smile. "Don't paint him black just because you are" "Show me your friends and I will tell you who you are, that's a proverb as old as time, besides the devil you know is better than the Angel you don't know" he said and I can't deny the fact that his words are getting me, after all he said Alfa took everything from him, so Alfa might have done something in the past. "I will come to the birthday." I said and left his office, am I judging things wrongly? No I am not, be is keeping my mother hostage. "Hey Bunny, care to go grab something to eat" Alfa said the moment I stepped into the office. "Sure" "Ro.. Chioma can you help me out" Nnedi requested for me and nearly called me Rose, I am glad she didn't because this is the worst way for Alfa to find out. "Sure, give me a second" I told Alfa and left with Chioma. Henry sent his driver to come get me, Alfa also invited me and asked me to wear a red gown, I was smiling ear to ear when he was asking me the colour of gown to wear over the phone, this has always been his routine before we lost contact. "Wow you look beautiful" Henry said the moment he saw me, there is a lot of guest and some are Maris shareholder. "Come meet my family" he said and led me to his family. "This is my Father Mr. Collins and beside him is my beautiful mother" He said and I can see how he acts differently with his family. "Good day, I am Chioma" I said with a courtesy, I have no idea why I chose to introduce myself with Chioma, I have never done it since it's a name I hardly use. "Nice to meet you dear" Mr. Collins said as did his wife. "So how is the company doing over there?" he asked. "Splendid sir" I replied then looked around to know if I can see Alfa. "Don't worry searching, he is never known for his punctuality" Henry whispered. "So who is the girl that took my shine?" A Lady said beside me and I turned to see a woman that look almost identical with Mrs. Collins, just younger. "Hahaha, nobody can take your shine sister, where is your husband?" Henry asked. "He travelled, thought I told you and don't bother asking about Junior I dropped him off with Nana, she has been asking me to" She said. "Well introduce the beautiful lady" "Her name is Chioma and she is my plus one for this party" Henry said and I am glad he didn't introduce me as his girlfriend. "Wow, she is beautiful" she turns to me "I am Isabella, his big sister" "Nice to meet you" I replied with a smile. "So where is Al" she turned to Henry. "He is not here yet" Henry answered. "So Dad you're 60, wow you're old" Isabelle makes jest of her fathers age "Happy Birthday Mr. Collins" I said and handed him the small present I bought him, its very difficult to buy something for someone that already has it all. "Wow, that's nice of you" he said and opened the present "wow what a beautiful pen" the delight in his face made me glad I asked Henry for help. "I hope you use it to write things that can change the world" Alfa told me he is retired and now writing a book about business so I hope he makes use of the pen. "Thank you my dear, you really are thoughtful" he said and I smiled "Hello Mr. C" I heard his husky voice and it was fireworks to me. "Mrs C" He walked past me making sure he brushed against me and his smell hits me, he has no idea how much control he has over me. "What other gift can I give to a man that already all except for my warm embrace" he said and gave Mr. Collins a right embrace "I wish you more beautiful years" He said as he broke the hug. "Thank you son" He replied. "Don't think I have forgotten you Mrs. C" He said and hugged her too. "Since we are in the business of hugging where is mine?" Isabelle said. "How can I forget my big sis, get here for a bear crushing hug" he said and enveloped her. "No hug for you bro except this" he said and stretch out his fist. "And I was already thinking of how to avoid the hug, thanks" Henry said and they first bumps. "And for you beautiful lady, I give the warmest" he said and embrace me before I could reject. He is warm and big, because he is taller my head was on his chest and I listened to his heart beat. It's faster than normal but I loved the way it matches mine. "I love this" I muttered.

Chapter 24. "Please" I said as I felt his hesitation, maybe I can still beg him out of it. "Alfa" he said after my phone rang beside me, I turned to see the caller ID, I guess he hung up and called back. With the look on his face I knew my fate is sealed. He is already on top of me and its difficult to single him out, shouting is not an option since I don't know what will happem to my family if I scream, I have never been in such situation. He lowered his head and kissed then silently squeezed my breast, I felt disgusted with myself. "You left the door up" He jerked up when he heard the door "oh bad timing" I didn't look to know it is Jessica. "And you are?" Henry asked trying to hide his annoyance. "I am Jessica her best friend" she said I said smiling hiding the pain I am feeling. 'Thanks Jessy for saving me from eternity of pain'I thought to myself. "Oh, she has told me about you" Henry said smiling. "Likewise, so sorry for spoiling your moment" she apologized. "Don't sweat it, I am already on my way out" Henry said and stood up the turned to me "Next time, we will continue where we left off" he bend down and kissed my forehead. "Goodbye" I said trying not to make anything suspicious. "Bye Jessica, it was nice meeting you" "You too" Jessica said and Henry left I then went and locked my door. "Sorry baby girl, I am such a cock blocker" she said looking cute with her baby bump. "Don't sweat it, so what of your husband?" I asked. "He was the one that dropped me, he apologize for not being able to come in he is already running late" "No problem" "So what's for Dinner I am famished?" she asked looking like a hungry tiger and that's weird because Jess is a girl with a little appetite, I guess that's her own pregnancy problem. "Soup is in the fridge, let me go warm it up for you" "Perfect, I have missed you so much" she hugged me tightly and I returned the gesture, I needed the embrace. "I missed you more" I tried to hide the tears. "Enough hug, let's go prepare something before I eat you up" she said and I laughed then together we went to the kitchen. I was reluctant to be at the office today, partly because I don't want to face Henry and because I was awake all night chatting with Jess. I ignored both Alfa and Henry calls, I needed a quality girl time so I don't want them to spoil my mood. After loading up the trunk with the drinks I am to sale today I was held up because the driver is still not here. "The boss is calling you" Esther came to deliver the message then entered her own truck and her driver zoom off, each of us in the sales department has our truck and personal driver. I sighed and got scared, I would've been half way to my first customer if the driver is around. "It's too early in a day to be tired" I heard his voice then turned to see Alfa looking so handsome, unlike his regular suit, today he is putting on just shirt and trouser. "Alfa" the name left my lips "One and only, so tell me why are you shoulders down" He asked. "Just thinking of the stress of today" I lied. "Well I am here to help" "What do you mean?" Henry asked before I did. "Why are you here?" I asked Henry, he never comes to the loading side. "Well since my girlfriend refused to come see me this morning I decided to come" he hissed. "Back to you Alfa, why are you here?" he asked looking irked. "Well I was bored, I decided to come help out" he answered with a shrug, how care free he is, because his best friend runs the company he think he can do whatever he wants. "So how do you plan to help?" Henry asked, I am standing between the two men. "Be her driver" my eyes widened. "But you don't know anywhere around here" Henry said. "That's why the Bunny will guide me" "Bunny?" Henry asked confused. "I already have a driver and won't you be leaving your formal position empty?" I asked. "Believe me nobody will notice?" "But..." "No buts, come on lets go we are already behind schedule" he said and climbed up the truck. "Any funny thing with him consider your family lost" Henry said to me. "That threat gets old and loses its meaning the more you use it" I said and walked away. I might appear strong and replied back at him but that threat will never be old or lose its meaning. I climbed in and he is already smiling at me, "Trouble in Paradise?" he asked. "Don't ask" he just shrugged and drove off, I wonder what will happen to my driver, he really needs his job. "Don't worry about your formal driver he has been taken care of. "Thanks" I replied. "It might be wrong it might be greediness, but for some reason I always want to be close to you" he said smiling. He dangles around as the car moves on the bad road, I looked at his firm grip on the stirring wheels, he looks strong and confident. "Why?" I asked, he removed his attention from the road to look at me "why do you want to be close to me?" he smiled and focused back on the road. "With you my smile is not fake, just as it was with Rose" he said and it warmed my heart. "So where is the first stop" he asked as we entered the main road. "Take your right at the first interception" I said smiling, I know I will have to give him every direction. We made our first sell with no problem if I didn't include how much the lady was all over him, I liked her but I am now pissed at her for demanding so much attention from Alfa. "I thought you said I am the only one that makes you laugh?" I asked looking at the window. "Why do you ask?" "You kept showing your teeth to that woman?" I hissed and he chuckle. "Jealous?" he asked and I kept quiet "I had to play the role of a good salesman" "You're not the salesman, I am" I said turning to him. "Wow, you are one hell of a beautiful man" he said giving me a side glance. "Baka" I said and returned to watching the green grass as the car slowly moves. "You got me worried last night" he said and I remembered how I abruptly ended his call. "I....." I was about to apologize but stopped as the car started jerking. "What's wrong?" I asked and be looked at me with a very gullible face. "I messed up on my face day at work" he pouts. "What happened" "The fuel is finished" he muttered loud enough for me to hear. "You" I got pissed, "Please don't fire me" he begged. "I wish, well there is a fuel station just before this road, I will go get fuel. "Now what man will I be if I let you suffer the sun, I will go get it" "Are you sure?" I asked as I remember how dumb he is with road. "Of course, just wait for my triumphant return bunny" he said and got down. "Be careful" "You affects my thoughts Bunny, in more way than you can imagine" he chuckles then left with the fuel gallon. "Please be back quick" I muttered as I stare at his back |
Thanks guys for the comment, sorry I am a bit slow, na conditions o |
Chapter 23 I showered when I got home and waited for his call, no need eating I already had my dinner with him. "Hello" I picked up when his calls entered, the number is already saved in my phone. "Easy there Bunny" he chuckled. "Shut up" "Baka" "Big head" "Big teeth" I gasped. "You found someone better I suppose" I said referring to the girl that approached him earlier tonight. "Found who?" he asked. "The model like girl that approached you after I left" "Model like? I can't really remember" his denial annoyed me. "The girl that approached you before I lost sight of you this night" I made it more clear and he kept silent, I am guessing he is thinking about it. "Oh, I remember, are you jealous?" he chuckle "Why would I be?" "Yes I know you are not, you are already dating a cute guy. Henry is really a great guy, consider yourself lucky" his words just annoyed me. "Why didn't you search for Rose" I asked, since he claim to love Rose he should've searched for her, I even uploaded my pictures on my Facebook and added my number back hoping he can see me from there. Well since he is never good with numbers I suppose he won't be able to search me up on Facebook. "I did, she told me she works at Juvango, I asked Henry to help me search for any girl that works in Juvango called Rose" he exhaled and continued "He was able to find 3 Rose working in Anambra Branches and they have no idea what I was talking about, I even went further with my search still I failed." "Why did you ask Henry to help you out, why not do it yourself?" I know Henry must have manipulated the search. "Henry is a very careful human being, he has always been my backbone, if Henry wasn't able to find the Rose I am looking for in Anambra branch that means I won't be able to" "You really trust him that much" the trust pains me as I remember what Henry is really planning. "Yes, after my dad died, his took care of me till I am old enough to live alone. Even now there are the only people I consider family. Henry is a brother to me, we do have our rivalry moments but in the end we are best buddies." "Wow, that's deep" this shows how difficult it will be to convince him about Henry. "Yes I owe him a lot and I wonder if I will ever be able to pay him back, after my father died I became wayward since I have nobody to live up to or impress. Henry stepped him and made himself my rival, so I had to seat up in order to beat him" he chuckled, I guess reminsincing made him happy. "So what were you doing that day at the company, I have worked there for years but have never seen you" I now know he is not among the new recruit, since he is Henry's best friend he must hold an important position. "Well there is a shortage in the account from that quarters so I was passing by so I decided to check it out and it's been long I have been there last" maybe he is the accountant. "So you're the companies accountant?" "Accountant?" he laughs "if I tell you my position you will be speechless" he boasts, typical egomaniac, at most he will be the supervisor. "Oblige me" "Pay me" why am I not surprise. "I don't have money" "I don't need money" "Then what" "Invite me over and prepare a good meal" he said and he can't believe how much I have wanted to make him a wonderful meal. "Deal" I accepted "Hmmm, payment should've been hard on you but you accepted this way way too fast. Maybe I should've requested for something else" "A deal is a deal" I cut him off because know Alfa he will request for something harder. "Alright you win" "So tell me what's your position" "I am....." I removed the phone from my ear as a I heard a loud knock on my door so I was unable to hear his last words. "I will be back" I told him as I went to check who is on the door. "Who is there?" I asked but no answer. I remember that Jessica said she is coming to spend the night since her husband is travelling and he doesn't want her to spend the night alone. "Jess" I asked still no answer, I swear she will never grow up, does she think she will scare me like that again. "We are too old for this play" I said while opening the door. "Hello Girlfriend" Henry said as I opened the door and I froze up, never did I imagined to see him and he reeks of alcohol. "What are you doing here?" I asked. "I am just here to see my girlfriend is there anything bad in it" "I am not your girlfriend and it's late so go home" I hissed and he gushed. "Well after tonight you really will become mine." "What do you mean?" "It's time for you to fulfil your duties as my girlfriend" he said with all seriousness and I instantly knew what he meant, I tried shutting the door on his face but was too late as he caught it and pushed me away. I instantly took off hoping I will be able to get to my room and lock the door. "Too slowly dove" he said and he already caught me and I despise the fact he called me dove. "Ahh....." I tried to scream but he held my mouth. "Scream and consider your mom lost forever" he hissed and all energy left me, feeling he has defeated me he pushed me down to the sofa. "Time to be a nice girlfriend" he said and tears left my eyes., how will I face Alfa after tonight A/N: God please I beg of you don't ever let me be like Henry. |
Chapter 22. I spent my whole day as a ghost, I did all my sale as a robot, worst when I came back to the office to close for the day everybody has started calling me Chioma and I knew who made it possible. "Did you ask everybody to start calling me Chioma?" I asked with a weak voice. "Yes, that's how powerful I am" he always love to flex his money and power "besides I don't want him to hear people calling you Rose" he said with a shrug as if it's the most normal thing. "Why are you this wicked" I asked again "I already told you, I am just driven" he replied. No need asking what drives him because it's vengence, I wonder what Alfa did to deserve such plot from a best friend. I left his office to go arrange my things and go home. "I don't know what you're playing at that even the C.E.O is asking us never to call you Rose again" Timi hissed at me. "You so jealous my position thinking its a bed of roses, what I will give to switch places with you" I said and left before getting a reply from her. I walked downstairs and slowly walked to the eatry we ate last time, we agreed to come back here again but I know it's no longer possible since to him I am his Bestfriends' Girlfriend. I felt tired so I went to the corner we used last time and took a seat, thank God it's empty. "What can you bring for you" the servant boy asked, I looked at him for a while before deciding, I know it must have been weird to him "Vegetable soup" I have no appetite but I will feel closer to him if I eat this once more. It didn't take long for the food to be served, I kept staring at it, my tears are all dried up but the pain is getting worse. "You don't eat by starting, besides eating the same soup is boring" I heard his familiar voice and I jerked my head up. "You're here" I am beyond surprise. "Wouldn't miss it for the world" he said smiling, I can feel my pain easing up just by his presence. "I will eat rice today, so no vegetable for me today" he said and ordered rice after seating opposite me, we are using the same table but unlike the last time we are seating opposite each other. "I thought you wouldn't come, you know after finding out I dating your friend but here you are" I said with a tender look. "I too was afraid you wouldn't come after finding out I am your boyfriends' bestfriend, but here you are" he raised his left eyebrow making him super hot. "Yes here we are" I said. "Let's eat I am famished" I laughed and we started eating, we felt so normal with each other, like we have been doing it all our lives. We talked about our day mainly about my sales and customers, have missed talking to him about everything and anything, I wish I can tell him about the current situation. "This looks strong" he said with his attention on my soup, he has already finished his rice. "What do you mean?" I asked after he finish washing his hands. "This" he said and quickly took my meat, he threw it into his mouth before I could react. "That's not fair" I pouted. "You have two more, don't be a stingy bunny" "Long throat" I stuck my tongue out and he chuckled. "Waste more time and I will leave you with only one meet" he threatened and I took the two meet at once. It is a bad choice because they are too big for my mouth, making him laugh at me. "You are so cute Bunny, if you end up with Henry I will be godfather to a bunch of cute babies" he said laughing but I fail to share his enthusiasm, I just giggle to hide my sadness. "You came late, why" I pointed an accusing at him "Well you are right, I would have gotten here early if I didn't miss my way" he shrugged. "What, you missed your way?" I am dumpfounded. "Yes, I can't remember if we took the left side or the right side and I can't even remember what the store looks like. I have even walked past here like 5 times" "What, that absurd, its not even far from the company" "Yes it's not, I decided to come in here and try luckily I found you" I remember him saying he lacks all sense of direction. Believe it this just added another level to his infinite level of cuteness. "So what if you came inside this store and didn't find me?" I asked already feeling like the only girl in the world. "Well I will have to enter every every then" he said with a shrug. "Wow" "Don't feel so high, I am just a determined human being, like if I am determined to kill a lion consider it dead" he praised himself. "Hmmm, egomaniac" I hiseed and he smiled. "You're worth every energy wasted" the looks he has now made my knee weak and I gushed. "Stop" I whispered with my head down to hide the blush I have now, it's definitely a bad idea to be locked up in tge same room with him. "What did you say" he asked and I waved it. "So about your Rose, why were you in a bad mood the day you guy quarrelled" I asked trying to shift the attention from me, but I am still Rose so tge attention is back to me. "Well that was July 14th, that was my birthday" "Wow, are you angry he didn't wish you a birthday" hell how would I have known. "Nope, she doesn't know, I am in a bad mood because that's the same day my mom died, she does giving birth to me" he said making a galloping sound with his fingers. "That's..." I was speechless as I felt a knife cutting deep into my heart. "Ten years later my Dad died in car crash on the same day while he was on his way back to be with me on my birthday. Now I also lost Rose on that same day, we lost Mirable too on July just a week before 14th when I was 18. I guess July is just a bad month for me, every year I am messed up on that week and pray it doesn't come at all." He said and the pain written on his face is too excrutiating. "I am sorry, So sorry" I said with tears already flowing, I thought they are dried up. "Don't sweat it bunny, I have learnt how to smile through pain" he said with a sad smile and it doesn't suit his personality at all. I want to hug him and tell him everything will be alright. "Aaah, the day has slowly chameleon to night" truly it's night already but I don't want to leave his company, he needs me as much as I need him. "You will soon be going, so can I have your number this time" If I give him my original number, he will find out about me being Rose, so I gave him my second number that is not registered in WhatsApp. "I will call you bunny" he said and I nodded. He paid for our food and I made him promise to let me handle the next bills. "Good night bunny" he said as I am about to board the bus, it's already late so only few tricycle are around. "Because you've walked in the darkness you will be able to see even the smallest silver of light. The world needs people like you" I said as I felt the urge to comfort him with a quote like he always did in the past with me. "Wow, who knew my bunny makes nice quote" I was filled with pride not because of the quote but because he said My Bunny, just like I call him My Mysterio he just claimed me. "Your Bunny has a lot of other qualities" I said with a fast ass blush, luckily the night hid it well. He was about to say something but the driver cuts him off with his horn, impatient human being. "Good night Bunny" he said and nudged me inside. "Good night Alfa" I said and the driver took off, he stood there waving at me, I nearly jumped out of the car when I saw a girl approached him. A/N: Quote of the day: Because you have walked in the darkness you will be able to see even the smallest silver of light. So who is this Mirable? |
GreatResearcher1:Wait do you want to send her a story that I have not even completed or you just want to send her another wrong number |
mhizv:Sorry dear, it's not yet complete, I will be faster |
Chapter 21 I was unable to hear from Henry on Saturday he didn't return my text and no call so I guess he is not back yet. I spent my time chatting with my Brothers, we have a whatsapp group chat where we communicate, I am glad my mom is awake, she has to stay longer to be monitored before coming back to Nigeria. I took my time to think about Henry and Alfa, I wonder the connection between the both of them, maybe they're brothers and Alfa told Henry about me or something like that, a thousand scenario ran through my head. I wanted to chat Mysterio up again but I decided to wait till Monday in order not to make rash decision. He is really more than I expected, the way he gives a side glance when he says something trying to see your reaction, it's so cute, his smirk is sexy. Don't get me started on his voice and his laughter, his looks is better than a model, I can't imagine how many girls that will be trying to get him in this company. My entire weekend was filled with imagination of Alfa that I could barely wait for Monday, I will also confront Henry so Monday is a day to look up to. I arrived early at work so Henry wasn't here yet, I made arrangement of the drink I will sell today and then waited for Henry, he always come before I leave. I went to his office 5 minutes I saw him drive in, I waited 5 to allow him settle in "Beautiful Dove" he said the moment he saw and I despised the way he called me dove, now I know why it never sounded nice in his mouth, he is just an imitation. "You're not Mysterio" I stated not ready to beat around the bush, I know I owe a lot to h but I am not the type that comprise my happiness, Alfa taught me that. "You met Alfa?!" he said and jerked up his seat, he didn't even try to hide it, I guess I took him by surprise. "Yes" I deadpanned. "When did it happen and what did you tell him?" "On Friday and I didn't tell him anything, I just wanted to meet you first to clear things out and you just made things crystal clear" "Well, you're now feeling proud and think yourself a great detective, I don't even want to hear how youet him and how you knew it was him. All I want to tell you is you should never tell him you're his little Dove" he said in very low threatening tune making me question my actions "And if I don't?" "Need I remind you that your mother is in my care and you own be a buck load of money, just a phone call and your mom will be lost forever.....aaaah and Chuks" he said with a sinister smile and my world went dark. "You wouldn't" I said with tears forming in my eyes already. "Dare me" he smirked. "Why would you go to such length?" I asked as my feet feels wobbly. "Well Alfa took everything from me so I am paying him back by taking everything from him" he said and sat on his table looking intimidating, I never noticed how cruel he looks. "Then how does that involve me" "He always talk about you, gosh he wouldn't shut up" "Talking about me doesn't mean anything" I cried. "He is my best friend I have known him almost all his life, Alfa is not a talker, so whenever he talks about something or someone that means he values it, and I have never seen him talk about anyone or anything like he talks about you, not even Mirabel" he said the last part with much anger. "He is your best friend and you want to play such game with him, I am just a girl and my family means everything to me" "You don't get? He loves you like no other and he is man that you can take anything from because he values nothing, so it's a rare opportunity for me that you came, I will take you away from him and make him feel the same despair that I felt". I have no idea what happened between them but I don't want to be used as a pawn. "Please" I begged kneeling down, he came closer to me. "What boyfriend would I be if I let you kneel and cry" he hushed me and wiped my tears "don't worry you won't get hurt neither will your family if you do as I say" he said and I nodded since I am utterly powerless against him. He moved closer to kiss me and I am too weak to resist, I felt and invisible chain holding me down and I can only suffer the disgrace, I closed my eyes as I prepare to welcome the torture but the door flew open instantly. "Business and pleasure isn't that against the rule" I heard the same husky voice and I was relieved but it was just lived as it changed to terror as I think of how he will judge the situation. "Come on this is not just any pleasure this is my girlfriend" Henry said with a different demantor, he is being friendly with him. "Wow, you never told me" He said and I can imagine his smile even with my back against him. "Well we just started recently" Henry then took my hand "come dear say hello to my best friend, Alfa" he twirls me around and I stood face to face with Alfa, slowly his beautiful smile died down. "Chioma" my name left his lips. "Alfa" I responded with the same emotions. "Oh, you guys already met" Henry broke the little silent I just shared with Alfa an I glared at him. I don't understand him, Alfa is his best friend but why does he want to make him suffer and why does he think Alfa values me above everything, why does it has to be me. "So what brings you to the company" Henry asked Alfa. "Well I was hoping to meet a particular Bunny" he said after a little hesitation and it crushed my heart, I can just blurt out everything but that means I will never see my family again. "Bunny? You always a wierdo" Henry blurted and Alfa scoffed still had his eyes glued on me making it impossible to look up. "Well it's no longer possible, have a nice day with your girlfriend" he said with a smile but I don't need a soothsayer to know it's a fake smile. He left after his well wishes. "Well, you didn't reveal our secret and wow you lied about your name" Henry accused. "Chioma is my name, I didn't lie" "You didn't say the truth either" it pains me how right he is, he smiled as he felt the victory. "I know you're thinking of contacting your family and telling them everything" he went back and sat down "well imagine telling a woman that had a major heart surgery that her life is just a pawn and her treasured family is not safe, oh the pressure will kill her instantly" he mocked me with a fake pity. "You are manipulative bastard" I cried. "I am just driven" he said and wave me to leave his office. A/N: sorry for the delay guys I was unable to sub. I will try harder. Thanks for the comment and I see all your assumptions, its fun to read. Make more assumptions guys, let's know who can predict it well |
Chapter 20 We walked to the nearest eatry, our footsteps was in sync as if we praticed it. I wish i met him longer. "So what will you eat?" he asked. "I am craving for some vegetable soup" I said feeling it will bring us together. "I am also in the mood for some vegetable" he said and ordered for the both of us. "So what's the history behind your name" I asked because it's not everyday type of name. "Well my mother is a huge Romance novel fan, so the novel she was always reading when she was pregnant for me, the protagonist name is Alfa" "You really have an awesome name" "Don't sweat it dove" he winked "So who did you think I was" I asked just to be sure. "A girl name Rose" he turns to me "you work at Juvango so you might know her" "I might know her if you describe her" I said resisting the pain in my heart. "Well I don't know much about her physical appearance, she sounds a lot like you, loves Naruto just like I do" he stopped as our food got served. "And she makes wonderful foods" he added. "Have you eaten her food?" I asked but already feeling proud "No, I haven't even seen her, she once mistakenly sent me a message and from there we got really close" he washed his hands so did I. "You haven't seen her but you know she makes good food" "Yes she always send me the picture of what she made" we have now started eating. "So why haven't you met her up, because the way you are talking about her you really care about her" I said already filling my tummy, I never knew how hungry I am. "For some weird reason I kept refusing to see her" "Well you can call her now" I said with a mouth full. "Easy there Bunny" he chuckled. "Bunny?" I asked. "Well you two front teeth are big and you're really cute making you a bunny" this is the first time someone has commented about my two front teeth and for some reason instead of feeling insulted I felt more attracted to him. "Well I can't call her, I lost my phone and I not good with number so I can't remember her number no matter how much I tried" he took a deep breath showing his regret "Then I did welcome back and installed my WhatsApp but was unable to retrieve old messages because I don't do backup. I have always waited for her to message me back but she didn't, I am still waiting and she hasn't" he turned to me and the pain in his eyes is suffocating. "Are you crying bunny?" he asked with a low tune making his husky voice sound sexier. "No" I wiped off my tears "something got into my eyes" I never knew I was crying. "Why do you think it's the reason why she hasn't called" I asked. "We had a misunderstanding, I was in a shitty mood so I ended saying everything wrong" he washed off his hands, not only him because even I have lost my appetite. "I just want to talk to her once, ask her forgiveness, tell her that I am sorry, that she is the most wonderful thing that has happened to me in a long time. Hell I am even blaming myself for hiding my identity, now I think the reason why I hid my identity doesn't matter anymore". "Why did you hid your identity?" I asked. "I am someone that always whatever that matters to me, so I was afraid I will lose her once she knows me. I guess I still lost her even with all my precaution" he exhaled looking tired. "I am sorry" I said knowing that I have messed up. "Don't sweat it bunny, it ain't your fault" "Why are you not angry, if she really cares she would've called and not stop calling or texting just because you stopped" I am so stupid. "Well at first I was angry then sad but right now I will give anything to hear her voice" "Is her voice that good?" I said smiling then wiped my tears before it fell. "Yes it's heavenly, it fills a whole inside me, a whole that has been inside me since I can't remember" he turns to me "you really sound like her" "I guess I am a guardian Angel sent to you to entertain you in her stead" "Guardian Angel" he gave me his throaty laughter once again. "She once called me that" "Well I can be that" I said, it's already getting late. "It's getting late, can I walk you home?" He asked. "I would love that, but I will take a tricycle home" "I can just..." I didn't let him finish. "Every good thing has an end" I said because I am already feeling guilty hearing all this. "Ok, can I have your number? I know its cliche but I don't mind" he said with a shrug. "Well, I don't mind but how about we meet once again on Monday at this place after work and share a dinner like we just did. I will give you my number after it perhaps" "Well I guess it's more awesome, alright let me lead you out" he said and paid for our meal and we both walked out. "How time flies" he said as we both stood outside waiting for a tricycle. "I will be going then" I said as I stopped a tricycle and he beeds me farewell. As the driver drove off I brought out my phone and sent a message to Henry. *We need to talk* I really need to hear his explanation and how he found out about Mysterio, I already have a million scenario inside my head. I smiled as I remember his laughter, Henry is handsome but there is nothing more to him, Alfa is handsome knot, the more of him you untie the more beauty you see. He captivates with his smile, charm you with his eyes, infects you with his laughter, make you marvel at his cuteness and boy does he make you sweat with his husky voice making you imagination turn unpure. He is more than everything I imagined and the feeling he gives me is beyond words, I don't know how long I can resist this feelings Click on the link below to read awesome free stories. www.kingsworld7..com |
Chapter 19 I am standing face to face with Mysterio, I don't need a soothsayer to tell me, the laughter, the voice, knowing Naruto coupled with what am feeling. "I..... I....." I stuttered. "Cat got your tongue?" he asked just like the first day we spoke on phone. "No, I am just surprised you know Naruto" I said thinking I might be wrong. "I know it and Imagine how awesome it is" he said with a smug, that's him alright, he is Mysterio the egomaniac. "Better watch the road next time" I said and rushed down the stairs, I think it's not good being in front if him and I'm still not sure he is the one. I already have Henry, though he has not been acting like the Mysterio he still knows a lot of things about me and I'm eternally grateful for what he has done for me. I left the company and walked to where I will board a tricycle to go home but I got stuck as I feel I should've chatted more with this guy to figure things out, and no matter how much I try to deny it, I still feel drawn to him. I found myself slowly going back to the company hoping to bump into him. "What will I say if he sees me coming back" I exhaled "I was so handsome you just couldn't resist me" I mimicked his voice, there I go again finalizing he is Mysterio. "What if he really is and came from the other branch to drop something, I remember he said he works at Juvango. If he is Mysterio how then did Henry know about the chat" I smacked my head, maybe I am thinking too much. "Here I am thinking I have met a cute girl, I don't know she is mad" I heard the same husky voice that washes over me like a cool bath in a summer day. I looked and he was standing just a few meter away from him, its getting dark but I still have enough light to see his perfect face. He is on suit and I have never seen anyone look so good in suit. "I was just thinking to myself" I said already feeling my throat drying up. "I can see that" he said nodding. "What is your name?" I asked out of the blues and by the way he looked at me, it surprised him too. "Do you always ask any cute guy you meet his name?" "No, just you" "You saying am cute" he said with one eyebrow raised, egomaniac, what is happening "Egomaniac" I hissed "What's your name" he asked this time around with all seriousness. "Chioma" I answered instantly for some reason I used my native name knowing he won't recognize me if he is really Mysterio. "Oh" he replied. "Are you disappointed, were you hoping to hear a more cooler name" "No, for a moment you felt oddly familiar, so I was a bit disappointed you weren't who I thought you are". " oh" I said feeling guilth "Don't sweat it dove, it's not your fault" he said. "Dove?" "Shit, I have no idea why I called you that" he smacked his head making me giggle "Seems like I am not the only mad one" "And it made you happy" he said flashing me his white set of teeth. "You still haven't told me your name" I asked, at least if it's the only thing I get. "Alfa" he said and my eye widened "Cool right" Mysterio once told me his name is cool and truly this is the coolest name I have ever heard, hell I never knew someone will bear Alpha as a name. "Alpha" I said still surprised. "It's spelled ALFA, thought still the same meaning with Alpha but my name is Italian while Alpha is Greek" he cleared it for me. "Wow" "Yes, I always feel the pride when I introduce myself, like I am the beginning" he said as he savoured the feeling. "Egomanic" I said and he smiled, I checked the time its almost 6pm and I need to break my fasting. "We have been starting here for a while now, why don't we go somewhere and talk" he suggest and it made me all giddy up. "Who told you I would want to do that" I said denying what I really feel. "Come on Princess, I know you do" "Do you give pet name to any beautiful girl you come across" I said feeling my cheek heating up. "Come with me and you will find out". It might be past six before we get to wherever we are going and it's just 5 minute to 6 and I need to say a little prayer but I also don't want this moment to end. "Give me a moment" I said and rushed back to the company, luckily its not locked yet so I guess Mr. Akin is still inside. I went to my corner, knelt down and said a prayer of gratitude for mothers successful surgery and everything He has been doing in my life. After the Prayer it was already past 6 so I went to the dispenser and took a class of water to break the fasting. I rushed downstairs and was lucky because if I had delayed a bit more Mr. Akin would've locked me inside. As I was rushing to go meet him up there is no simple way to describe what I am feeling right now. Excitement because of the untold fun he is to give me, fear that he might not be there waiting for me, uncertainty because he might or not be Mysterio, adding all these together I am really super excited. "You came back" he said with a beautiful smile and I return the gesture because no one on earth could resist this bundle of cuteness standing before me. "Wouldn't miss it for the world" I said feeling really really happy, this is a feeling I thought I have lost since Henry introduced himself as Mysterio, who knew a random encounter will bring it all back A/N: bundle of cuteness, |
Chapter 18 After eating which was a silent torture for me, we went to the sitting room to watch some film. 'Maybe he will oblige me by playing an episode of Naruto' I thought to myself, since he said he doesn't really like it much and only told me he did just to appear unique. "I have some horror and some home movies which one would you like" I guess I was thinking too much. "Put some home movies" I dont want to look over my shoulder all night, and its really getting late. One of the servants selected the movie that started playing, I guess the servants does everything. We started watching about half way through the movie his hands is already making his way up my skirt and it felt uncomfortable with the servants around. "The servants" I muttered as he brought his lops closer to kiss me "Oh" he said as it dawns on him "leave us" he said to the servants standing like soldiers. "Yes sir" they responded and left after bowing. He started kissing me even before they could close the door, I can see he is determined to have sex today. I dont mind having sex with him but I don't like the thought of having all these people around, I am someone that cares about what others think. He hands slipped into my bra and I jerked, I was too lost in thought I didn't know when he unbuttoned my shirt, why am I feeling like am paying back a favour instead of making love with my boyfriend. "I...." I was cut off from my word by the viberation of my phone, I picked it instantly and inwardly thanked my brother for calling now, he has been staying with me together with my mom since they started preparing to travel out. "Hello" "Sister, mom is asking of you, she is hoping you will prepare her favourite poridge yam" "Ok, I will soon be back" I replied and hung up and looked at Henry, it looks like he is trying to hide his annoyance. "I need to get home and prepare food for my mom" I said and he took a deep breath and exhaled. "I hope she travels soonest so I can have you all to myself" I have nothing to say to that, I just good up and tidied myself. "I will be going then" I said hoping he will escort me out. "I will ask the driver to take you home" he said and took the intercon to call the driver. Money is good and he has does done amazing things for me with it, it's no lie to say I accepted his request instantly because of the hospital bills. But its also good for him to exert energy and do somethings for me, it will make me feel honoured. "Ok I will see you tomorrow then" I said and he came closer and kissed me "I am missing you already" I can see the hunger but I dont know if its for sex or just for me. I walked outside and the servants bow, I dont think I can get use to this type of lifestyle, I manage to walk to the car without missing a step. The driver greeted me like always and drove off without hesitation. "You can stop me here" I said the moment we got to the front of my house. It's a two story building and we have other tenants but everybody minds their business. "Thank you for the ride" I said "You're welcome" he smiled showing his white teeth, I smiled back and came down from the car, I washed as he drove off. I am not happy about today, I cant shake away the feeling of being used and I am allowing in because I am in debt, I went upstairs and hope to figure things out soonest. My mom left for overseas and she was scheduled for the surgery pretty quick, I avoided being alone with Henry all week with the excuse of taking care of my mother and it annoyed him to no end, now that my mom left she instructed to fast and pray for her to have a successful surgery which I told Henry about. "So no sex till after your fasting" he said with a scary calmness and I just nodded. "Well I have endure this long, I guess I have no other option" he looked down "we have been dating for more than two weeks and I have only kissed you and never seen you naked" "Dont worry you will soon have what you're waiting for" I said truthfully since he is really understanding and I am dating him so I think its only right if I give it to him. "Alright, do you need a time away from work?" he asked. "No, I can manage, she is scheduled to have the operation by Friday, tge work will keep me busy in order not to think too much" "Alright, happy fasting" he said with a wink and I smiled before taking my leave. Timi is still keeping malice with me but thats not what am worried about, am more worried about my mothers surgery and pray its successful because its a major operation. "Sorry I will be leaving to Ghana today" Henry apologizes as he knows I needed his support today being my mother's surgery. "You can be with Jessica and not come to work at all" I am already all dress for work and being at home will worsen my worry, I also don't want to bug a girl that has her own issues. "Dont worry, so when are you going?" "I am on my way to the airport" he said and I felt his absences. "Alright, safe trip" I said and hung up. I knelt down to pray again asking God to take total control over everything. I went to work just like every other day, I kept saying silent prayer in my heart and messages Chuks every minutes to know how things are going. After closing work by 5pm did i get tge message I have been waiting for, *It was a successful Operation* from Chuks. I jumped and screamed. "Praise the Lord!!" Thank God it was only me and Mr. Akin that is in the building, I knelt down and praised God with tears rolling down. *How is she now?* I asked. *Sleeping, I am with her now* He answered. *Thank God, I will call later when I get home* *Alright Bye*. I quickly called Henry but it wasn't available an I remember he travelled to Ghana so I texted him and hope he receives it. *It was a success* I texted and placed my phone inside my bag, I am already super hungry because of the fasting but this news made the hunger disappeared, and my fast closes tomorrow on Saturday. I was coming down the stairs when a figure voilently brushed past me and I nearly fell down, "Baka!!" I shouted and he stopped, even with my happy mood I was prepared to confront this stranger. He turned to look at me and all reasoning left me, He is tall just like Henry, Nice hair cut, red lips, not as dark as Henry and above all he is more handsome than Henry. "Baka" he said with and amuse looks "Baka" he said again and started laughing, a deep throathy laughter and his head thrown back just like I have always imagined a certain someone. "Isn't it a bit too much to call a stranger an Idiot" he said with a husky voice and my throat went dry, he knows the meaning of the word. Only one person that I know of has this same voice and laughter and also knows the meaning of this word. My Mysterio A/N: could this strange guy be the real Mysterio or what. I am confused o |
Chapter 17 "So you mean the guy you mistakenly texted thinking it was me, happen to your boss and now your boyfriend" Jessica asked and I nodded. "I am more surprise he decided to take care of my mommy" I said taking a sip of the coke she served me. I have told her about Mysterio and most of the things that happened but I withheld something's even tge abortion part. To think of this I am even surprise Henry doesn't care about the abortion and still want to date me. "So your mom will be leaving the country next week?" she asked. "Yes" Its been a week since I started dating Henry, we haven't had much time together he has been busy and I also has been busy with my mom travelling, luckily he gave me time from work. "So have you guys done the deed yet" she asked with a cheeky look. "Hell no, it's too early" I nearly choked on my drink, Jessica has always been the type that takes the bull by the horns, but as for me I take my time when it comes to this. "Keep delaying" Truthfully Henry once came over and we nearly did it but I was able to hold back for some reason I wasn't free, when I was chatting him without knowing him I am sure I would have gone straight to bed with him whenever we meet. Now that we have meet I am holding back and I can't even say why because I don't know why. "Just don't miss this opportunity, it's hard to see a rich good guy like that" "Thanks for the advice" "So, I have a news of my own" she said smiling and I can already guess the news. "What's that?" "I am 3 months gone" "Wow" I squealed. Even though I already know because of the changes in her appearance, hearing the news still made me very happy and surprised. "I am so happy for you", I stood up amd walked to her side and gave her a warm hug before returning to my seat. "I will be going back to work on Monday, my mom will be leaving next week too, I am so glad" I am so sure that God will take control over the surgery. "Money is good my friend, under two weeks everything is ready, it would've been longer if there is no money" Jessica said and stood up to go check if the rice is done and I followed her. "Well there is nothing money can't do in Nigeria" We kept talking about random things even telling about our classmates that have married and prompting me to be fast with mine as if I am the one holding myself. When I can back to work Timi became my worst enemy, I have no idea how she found out about my relationship with Henry, she called me a gold digger and I couldn't refute her considering how I agreed to date Henry because of what he did. "How did Timi found out, not only her but the whole workers has" I told Henry while sitting down in his office. Everybody is now treating me differently, some like Timi are rather harsh while most are super nice like am their road to heaven. "Well I told Mr. Akin in other not to stress you much again" he said nonchalantly. "You shouldn't have, I dont like the special treatment am receiving" besides I am not sure if I accepted because of the overwhelming gratitude or because of the feelings I had when we first chatted. "Don't worry dear, it will pass" he said still signing some documents. Besides what if the worst happens and we break up, with everybody now aware it will be unbearable to keep working here and I need this job. Damn dating the boss is not so easy. "So How is your mom" he asked. "Fine" I replied "I will be going off to work" I said standing. "You don't need to, you can stay here with me" he pouts "Very cute, but no mister, I am a very diligent worker, so I will be with you later tonight" "Come to my place this time around" he said with a smile and I nodded. I saw Timi the moment I stepped out and she glared at me. "You think you have won, don't worry I will have the last smile when I get to know the real C.E.O" she said and walked past me and I took a deep breath before going my way. After work I went to his office but he was gone, he is always busy. I walked downstairs to take a tricycle home but was surprised by something else. "Ma'am I'm here to pick you up" a cooperate driver said, I looked behind him and saw a neat mercedeces 4matic, I have no idea which model but it's beautiful. "You mean me" "Yes" he said with a bow. "Who asked you to" I asked just to be sure. "It's the boss Henry" I have no need to refuse I guess this his way of being romantic, I smiled and entered the car. This is my first time riding such an exquisite car, I was afraid to touch anything thinking I might spoil something, being rich is good. The ride wasn't that long though I wish it was longer, I was speechless when I arrived at the house, I have only seen such beauty in the movies. "Welcome ma" the girl dressed in cooperate welcomed me with a bow as did I, a lot of servant welcomed me and I thought of how uncomfortable it would be for all these people to be here constantly, it will prevent me from doing things the way I want. "You are here" I heard Henry said as he came to welcome me, he took me in for a warm embrace and thank God he didn't kiss me in front of all them. "Come to the dinning table" he said and I followed. I am glad he is doing all these for me, I am really honoured but it's too much, we have servant at every corner, the food won't even be tasty to me because I will be anxious of the servants standing like a soldier besides me. This is not his idea of a date, he once told me he enjoys date with nobody around, just him and the girl. This is opposite of what he told me, in fact since I met him he has been different making me wonder if I really know the guy sitting opposite me. He looked at me and smile, the dining is a bit long so having normal conversation is not possible we have to be speaking loudly so no privacy. I just smiled back at him and decided to focus on the food. A/N: sorry for the delay |
Chapter 16 I am glad he decided to drive me to the hospital and always giving me words of encouragement, my mothers medical condition has been detoriating, she has been having heart issues, I guess its now getting worse. "Don't worry she will be fine" he said for the millionth time and I just nodded. Immediately we arrived I rushed inside luckily I found my brother at the reception. "Where is mom?" I asked immediately I saw him. "She is sleeping now?" he answered weakly. The whole issue has drained the poor boy, he decided to school from home so he can take care of mom, they knew my work wouldn't let me and I felt ashamed leaving my mom for my brother to take care of but we need the money I earn for our living. Our dad is no more and we are just 3, 2 boys and me, I am the eldest so I have to take the responsibilities at least till Emeka graduates, luckily he is doing his NYSC. Chuks the one with our mother is the last born he is just in his second year. "Let's go see her, then we can see the doctor" I said and he nodded. I gently walked inside the room and she is peacefully asleep, she had suffered a lot to train me through school, after our father died nobody was around to help us, she took care of everything and never complained for once. "Let's go see the doctor now" I said as I wiped my tears. "It will be alright" Henrt said as he soots my back, I totally forgot about him, I will introduce him to my brother later. "Thanks" I whispered. We entered inside the doctors office after he asked to come in, he has been tge doctor in charge of my mothers' case. "How is she doing" I went straight to the point, she is just 52 years old so she still has a lot of time to leave. "Is it alright I say it in front of him?" the doctor said pointing at Henry, I looked at him and he gave me a reassuring look. "Yes it's alright" my younger brother decided to stay back with mom so I need the support Henry provides. "Ok, truth me told, your mothers condition is not good, if something is not done fast she might not make it through this year" he said and my heart dropped. "So what do you suggest" Henry said since I lost all ability to talk. "She needs an Open heart surgery and this facility doesn't have such equipment" "Ok, so she can be saved with the surgery?" Henry asked and I am just looking between the both of them as they converse. "Yes, but it's not a cheap surgery" "Like how much are we talking about?" "100 million naira or even more, besides its best done overseas" I tuned them out immediately I heard the price, sell all our property it won't even amount to 10 million. "Rose, Rose" "Yes" I answered as I am drawn back to reality. "Down to earth" Henry said with a smile. "How will I save my mom, what will I do?" I cried as I felt so helpless. "Don't worry dear, I will take care of it" I hiccuped. "What?" "I will take care of it" he repeated. "The money is no joke" I said. "Don't worry, just give me a minute to make the necessary call" he said and excused himself, this still feel so surreal. He came back before 5 minutes and I stood like a drenched chicken waiting to hear what he has to say. "I have made the arrangement, your mom will be living the country in the next two weeks..." I hugged him before he could finish what he is saying. He really is my guardian angel. "Thank you Mysterio" the world left my lips with no much thought, he was there when my heart was broken and now he is here, God what did I do to deserve him. "Well someone will have to follow her to take care of her over there" he said as he broke the hug. "I don't mind going with her" Chuks said, I didn't even know when he entered here. He is now more alive than when we entered, I guess this is what happens when there is hope. "Alright it's all decided" Henry said smiling. "I don't mind working the rest of my life for you inorder to pay you back" I said with all seriousness. "You are hilarious, don't worry what is our friends for" he said. I can't believe all this things. "Mom is awake she wants to see you" Chuks said and I nodded. "Go be with your mom, I have some things to discuss with the doctor." I nodded and left. "Wow, you have a super rich boyfriend" Chuks chipped in and I smacked him "He is my boss" "I never knew bosses holds their workers hands and offer to pay their bills" he said with an Eye roll and I decided to ignore him, Chuks always talk more if you keep denying things. "Mom" I said immediately I entered, she managed to sit up and I went and hugged her, she has the drip on her. "Hope you're fine" she looked closer to inspect me, trust my mom to worry about others even in her condition. "Better than you" I said. "Mom you can't believe what happened" Chuks cuts me off, he now sat down and told our mom everything making me wonder when he entered the doctors office. "Wait, when did you enter the office?" I asked. "When your boss entered" he stressed the boss "I heard him made the call as I was coming to call you, so he briefed me in on everything. I entered together with him but your attention was on him" he feigned hurt. "So your boss is willing to do this?" my mom asked, sometimes she behaves like a child. "Yes mom" "Let me go greet him" she said already trying to stand up but I stopped him, no matter how she tried to hide it, we all know she is in pain. "He will be here" just on Queue Henry entered. "Good day ma" he greeted with a bow, so the proud Henry can be this down to earth. "How are you my son?" "Fine ma, I can see you are fighting the sickness." "Its God my son, I heard of your kind deed, only tge good Lord will bless you and reward you endlessly" my mom said "Amen" we all chorused, she continued her prayers of blessing on Henry and we kept saying Amen. "Rest well ma, please can I borrow Rose I have something to tell her" Henry said and my mom agreed. We both stepped out of the room, its a private ward so no disturbance. "I know this might sound selfish considering the situation you are in but we were in the middle of something before this disaster, so I am asking again even though its selfish, how about my proposal" he said looking desperate. Is it love for him, is it love for me, right now I don't know what I am feeling, if it is love or the immerse gratitude of what he just did, I really don't know. One thing for sure is no matter what it is, it is overwhelming. I took a step closer to him and planted my lips on his, its funny I could still taste the rice we ate before coming, his lips was soft and we moved in sync. "Does this answer your question" I replied as I broke the kiss. "Can you answer me again" he said as he came closer for a second kiss, we were rudely interrupted by my brother. "Sister, mommy said if she can go home today" Chuks asked oblivious of what he just did. "Am not the doctor am I?" I hissed at him as Henry laughed and we all walked inside. I guess the C.E.O is now my boyfriend. A/N: Do you smell something fishy |

jbtobsyn:Sorry sir but since I am still writing it that means I have to take time in developing the story and dialogue, if not I will just give you guys rubbish. So bear with me |
Chapter 14 I just received the most shocking message of my life that my brain doesn't even know how to process it. My boss is Mysterio, how should I react, should I slap him for keeping the secret, well that will certainly get me fired. Should I hug him and tell him how happy I am to finally meet him, well employees just don't hug their boss. What should I do then, I just stood there looking at him and he looks back at me expecting a reaction from me. "Say something" "I have no idea what to say" I replied truthfully. "How about you say that I am super handsome" he said and I rolled my eyes, thats typical him always full of self praise. "How come, since when did you know?" I asked. "Please sit, let me give you the full gist" I sat down to listen to his tale. "After our quarrel last night, I had to bury myself in work so I had to go through the company workers that was when I noticed that your name is Rose and you told me you work at Juvango so I had to check your number and it was a match" "Wow, that is just so unbelievable, I was even thinking you're one of the new recruit, I never thought you're the boss". "Yeah you're and your wild imagination. Well now that this is out of the way, lets talk about last night" he said and I hiccupped, I thought this revelation will make us all forget about last night. "Well, I did went on a date but it wasn't as interesting as I claimed, he kissed me and I slapped him" I muttered the last part and he laughed, I guess it's funny if you think about it. I laughed too but something felt different. "Well he deserves it, it's not good to sneak up on a lady like that" "Mine is out, so how was your weekend with your girlfriend, honestly I never noticed your absence in the office" I just realize I haven't been seeking him. "You and your imagination" he shakes his head "I went to Dubia to inspect the new hotel we were building, I never knew it will take that long, also I never wanted to you to find out my identity yet. You know telling you I travelled to Dubai will make you know I am rich" "That is correct, but we could still be chatting" "Yes I thought of that but I always come back tired and exhausted and I wanted to see how much you will miss me" he said with a grin, so he punished us both for that. "Well you did found out, so what made you came out now, with the way you are hiding your identity you could've continued the chat and still remain a mystery" not that I would love that, imagine chatting with my boss and calling him all sort of name. "Well I thought of that too but I lost my phone as I went to tge club to drink, so I decided it's a sign to end the mystery" "All these is overwhelming, how do I now act, I have no idea what to do" I said as I took a deep breath "Well it's not everyday a worker dates the boss" "Date?" I asked almost instantly. "Well, after last night I figured I want something more, I sense you do, so how about we start dating". He said. How can he dump all these things on me at once? "Baka" I muttered. "What's that?" he asked and it was surprising, this is Japanese word for idiot, anybody that watches Naruto will know that, as a matter of fact he has called me that a couple of times. I guess I wasn't loud enough and it's a good thing, it feels weird being connected with your boss in such way. "All these are overwhelming" "Well I can give you time dove" he said giving me a nostalgic feelings, I smiled as I remember how deep we have gone. Well after last night I would have jumped on the opportunity of dating him, but right now when I look at him there is this invisible barrier, maybe I was making an impossible fantasy. "Thanks, for your information you are not all that Handsome, and your name Henry isn't as unique as you made it to be" I lied about the handsome part, he is gorgeous but Henry is everyday name, I remember him saying his name is unique. "Well what can I say, I am egomaniac" "Well that you are, now Mr egomaniac, its already late I can now go ahead with my work" I asked, I know when I get pass the nervousness of him being my boss we will make a great pair. "Sure thing dove" he said as the word dove freely flowed out of his mouth. "Sure Boss" "I'll chat you up by tonight so you will get my new number, you can delete tge old one already" he said and I nodded before leaving the office. I stood outside the office contemplating what just happened over and over again, I have met my Mysterio but he happens to be my Boss and he wants to date me. I must confess that even with all this craziness I am happy to have finally met him and he is damn gorgeous. I slowly went back to my side of the building so to get ready to move out. "You took your time" Timi said with a scowl, I have no idea why but she has a special interest with the new boss. "Well, I was held up" I said as I grabbed my bag to leave, I am already late, I wonder of she also waited so that she would tell me that. I have a constant smile on my face, he is my boss and he wants to date me, come to think of it he has like a million girls around him, so why me. Well, am more excited that we have settled and that I have finally met him. He is also gorgeous, I pulled out my phone to start reading our chat, it has became a habit of me to always read our chat while the driver drives, I know he asked me to delete this number but I won't, I am to attached to it to just delete it, after all its what started all these.
