Chapter 9Carlos~“Flora, what are you doing here? Why didn't you call me that you were coming to see me?” I asked from where I stood at the door and checked around to see if Jasmine was still around, so she would not think that I was a playboy.I entered the house, locking the door,“Flora, answer me.” I yelled and saw her in my room inspecting the place.“Oh wow, you finally got a bitch you are sleeping with?”“Flora, mind your language, okay.” I can't be angry with Flora, she is too innocent.She walked to the kitchen saying,“Wow, , you even made breakfast in bed for her and here I was thinking I am the only special person in your life that you cook for.” She sounded so jealous.“Silly head, you are still my friend and there is nothing in this world that can change that, okay?”“I wish I can believe that.”“You have no other choice but to believe me, dear.” I smiled at her.“You haven't called me for weeks now, why? Do you find me disturbing or boring?” She questioned, and I know I
Chapter 10Jasmine ~I finished with the important meeting and sorted out the coming challenges. I returned to my office to take my rest then I saw the door open immediately revealing Carlos carrying his cleaning equipment to clean my office.“What happened to you saying you are off work today?” I smiled while saying it and he just smiled at me, saying,“I missed you.” I blushed really hard, and when I turned to look at him again, he was not there.Oh my God, I can't believe I was having a hallucination of Carlos, I must be so crazy about him.I brought out my phone and wondered why he has not called me yet or texted me, is he busy? If I should text him first, won't it look like I am the one after him? There is no way I will text him.I kept looking at my phone expecting his text and boom, a notification came from him. I was so excited to open it but what if this was my imagination? I won't reply, I will take a walk around my office and come back to this message to confirm that I am
Chapter 11Carlos~“What?” I yelled, this can't be happening, what if Jasmine comes over tonight? I can't also tell my best friend no, damn, what do I do in this kind of situation.“Hey, why yell? I should be the one angry that you forgot to even wish my mom a happy birthday because she loved you like you are her son.” She replied, folding her arms angrily.I can't let her know I am not cool with attending, it is a must I attend anyway,“I mean, what the hell, how can I forget such an important event today, I am so sorry Flora, can you forgive me?” “I will only forgive you if only you accept to be my date tonight.” “Okay, fine, I will be your date tonight.” I said with a smile and she jumped on me,“Yes, I know you will say yes, now I know how important I am to you, and I am going to brag among my friends that my boyfriend is handsome.”“I will suggest you don't do that.” I added, and she laughed,“I was just joking by the way Carlos, I am starving.” She subbed her Tommy looking desper
Chapter 12Carlos~“I need to go see someone, won't be going home again.” I said, hoping it works.“Come on, we are already here, can't you cancel the meeting with the person?”“There is no way I can cancel such an important meeting with the person, it's my hope, please try to understand.” I said making it look so real.“Okay, you can go, just give me your keys to your house, I will get the water and leave.” She requested.“Hell no, don't worry you will get water on your way home, taxi please stop.” I said forcing her to go in.“I am not going.”“Flora, we are just friends, stop making it look like we are dating, go home to your parents, I will call you.” I carried her in and locked the door.I talked to the driver where to take her to and no account he should stop her anywhere else unless at her home.“I hate you for this.” She said, and I smiled at her,“Get home safe.” I waved at her until the taxi was out of sight. Now I can breathe,I said, taking a deep breath. I rushed to my doo
Chapter 13Lavender ~I hope the date goes well, no one can resist Warren's charm and I know Jasmine will fall for him immediately, and they will start dating.I checked the time and then my phone, still no call from them yet,“What will they be doing right now?” I kept my phone and headed directly to the bathroom to take my bath.I returned to the dinning room to take some junk and I checked my phone messages, still no new messages yet.I am so curious to know what exactly is going on right now, I should have stayed behind to know what else is taking place.I got too carried away thinking about what was taking place at the date not to know the time Warren came into the house.He covered my eyes and kissed my cheek,“Hi dear.”“Warren, you are back.” He took off his hands and had his seat facing me.“Yes, I am, as you can see, I feel so tired.”“Okay, tell me the goodnews,did she fall for you?” I questioned him and his response makes me believe otherwise.“I don't think so, Lavender, I
Chapter 14Lavender ~The next morning when I woke up,I got ready to leave the house and meet with Jasmine without calling her.“Good morning baby.” I kissed sleeping Warren.“Good morning darling,give me five more minutes.” He said with sleeping eyes.“I am leaving,will call you and your breakfast is in the kitchen.” I said kissing his cheek and taking my leave.I entered my red latest camry car and zoomed over to the governor mansion.“I am here to see my friend.” I said to the security and they let me in only fit me to find out she hasn’t been home since yesterday.Where on earth is she? She didn’t call me as usual or tell me where she is right now.I brought out my phone and dialed Jasmine number immediately,“Hey Jasmine.”“Oh hi Lavender,nice morning right?”“Yes it is,so where are you? Heard you didn’t sleep home last night?”“Yes,lodge atd at the hotel,had some important things to handle.”“Oh nice,so how was yesterday,he was smoking hot right? Text me the name of the hotel you
Chapter 15Jasmine~Two days went by and it was time to go back home to get some work done. My entire stay with Carlos was Wonderful and I enjoyed every moment.Dad was going to be home soon and I didn’t want to lie to him again.I knew myself to be a bitchy brat but never to my father.I slide my sunglasses on and looked at my reflection in the mirror. I was beautiful and sexy. I was wearing a blue fitted gown that stopped above my knee and a long boots that reached my knee and my hair was tied to a bun.“How do I look?” I asked Carlos. He was leaning on the door of the room as he watched me with those eyes of his.God! He was so hot.He was wearing a black jeans trouser and a hoodie and his hair was curled and damp. I suddenly felt like running my hand through his hair.“You okay there, baby?” He asked, taking a step closer to me.“Yes, you?” I smiled and wrapped my hand around his waist as he did the same.Although I was older with four years, he always made me feel like a lit
Chapter 16Jasmine~We were back home from the trip and I was at home. I was waiting for my father to come back and we'd have a big dinner.I punched my keyboard, making sure to look at the files before inputting each name that would be used for the meeting I was going to attend later.I was tired and I won’t be going to work today. My head was throbbing so hard and I decided to take a rest and work from home but I would attend an important meeting later.My phone chimed and I scrolled up to see a message from Carlos.It read, "You're the light of my world, a perfect woman that fits in my arm, without you, I don't think I can live at all. I miss you, baby, with all my affection."I giggled, reading the message again and again. My cheeks heated and I can’t believe, I am blushing so hard just for a love message!I read the message again, I shook my head and let it go before returning to the files and the laptop.When I was done, I picked up the laptop and got ready because Maxwell will
