"Dinner is served." I informed, watching over her from my shoulder as I settled the plates of food on the dinning table. I didn't need to raise my voice because I had a deep voice.
"Awwww, that's so sweet. I'm coming." Bolu said from the sitting room where she was watching Telenovela. She was putting on the pajamas I had lend her and sipping the coffee she had made.
I replied her with a firm nod, took a seat and waited for her.
She stood up moments later, and made her way towards the dinning room. She looked really cute in my wine coloured satin pajamas, with her artificial bone straight waist length hair. I couldn't help but admire her that moment as my gaze slid up her body. She was a real beauty.
"What did you prepare, Al?" She asked, hastily grabbing a fork, as she balanced on the chair opposite me.
"See for yourself." I nodded towards where the plate of food sat.
She rolled her eyes, took the lid off the plate. And her eyes nearly pulled out their pockets when she saw the food.
I smiled, a genuine smile this time.
"Wow, spaghetti and beef sauce." She abruptly twirl the fork on the meal, took a mouthful into her mouth and chewed "It's delicious." She complimented after a mouthful, looked up at me, and then flashed me a grin. "Guess I'll start spending my nights here to always have this treat. You're such a good cook, Al." She sounded so sincere.
"Thanks." I said picking up my fork and resumed eating.
And that had been that. We ate in silence and I was grateful Bolu didn't speak until we were done eating. She was the polar opposite of what she was at the club.
I carried the plates into the kitchen, wiped the remnants of the food and dumped the plates into the dish washer.
When I returned to the sitting room, Bolu wasn't there and the tv was switched off. I had a feeling she was in my room and I was right when I went there. She was sitting on the bed waiting for me.
I sighed as I watched her, extremely cautious that she wanted me to sleep on the bed with her, and possibly give me a boner so we'd end up having sex.
"Come to bed, Al." She attempted to look miserable, but failed.
I ignored her, then went about brushing my teeth in the bathroom. When I was done, I stayed in for a while, hoping she'd fall asleep. But I was wrong, she was still awake, waiting for me.
"Come to bed, Al. It's late." She laid her hand on her cheek, then drowsily casted a worried glanced at me. She must've been battling with sleep.
"I..uh, I'm gonna go prepare for tomorrow. No sleeping tonight." I replied.
"Huh? So you're gonna tell me you don't sleep whenever you have a case?" Her lips curved upward as she questioned, raising a brow.
"Yes. Night." I replied firmly, not wanting more questions. I headed out of the room before she could utter any more words.
BoluThe sound of buzzer and dogs barking made me stir, as I hugged the pillow tighter, pressing my face into it. The stupid barking increased and I grudgingly sat upright, and ran my hand through my wildly tangled hair. I stretched my foot looking for one pair of slipper I had worn last night. I could feel my lips twitching into a pout.I yawned with my hand fisted against my mouth, stretched my arms and wore the comfy bedroom flip-flops I had worn last night. The air conditioner had made them cold though.Wondering why Alex wasn't in bed with me, I decided to head into his study.The damn guy must've slept in there. But he wasn't there when I got in. Meanwhile, barking of the dogs had gone out of control, like the were having mental disorder.
BoluHis eyes met mine swiftly, and sweet Jesus, I felt a jolt in my body. My teeth chattered as I shuddered, because it all felt like a misapprehension that this mysterious male just connected his eyes with mine, and looked away.There was something odd and intriguing about him, that commanded attention. I mean he was so cold looking and attractive at the same time, that I had doubts if he smiled or laughed.I was still occupied, ogling at him until he popped the buttons on the elevator, and hopped in. When the elevator slid down, I felt my heart going haywire.Holy Fudgenuts Molly.No Wonder Dad's Secretary was blushing furiously, when she saw him.I was still lost in
Charles"Congratulations you idiot, you just got caught. Now keep your gun down, raise your hands up, and turn around." I yelled, aiming the gun at the thief who had his back to me. He and three other guys went about robbing First Bank. We were called by a lady who hid in the restroom when she saw the thieves.When I and my colleagues arrived, we caught two of the thieves who were hijacking people's phones, money and jewelries.We succeeded in arresting them.Unsatisfied, because there were two thieves to be caught and handcuffed, I left my colleagues and went out all alone, in search of the thieves. Because I felt they were still in the building. And not too long ago I caught one trying to escape through the fence with the bag of money in his gloved hands.He kept the bag and gun down, raised h
CharlesIt was a minute past ten when I arrived at my mom's house to pick up Ruby. Mom's house was thirty minutes drive away from my house. I felt it was better for Ruby to stay at her granny's than hiring a nanny to look after her. So I always left her at my mlm's house, spend an hour or two with her, before returning to the office."Good evening, Charles." Mom greeted when I went into her view. She was sitting on the sofa in her sitting room, reading the bible with her thick lensed glasses on.I stared into that once beautiful face which was now wrinkled from old age. She was sixty two but age quickly. Currently looking like she gained twenty years in existence to her appearance. Because of the H.B.P and diabetes she had.She also had a short hair which had the variat
MiaRachael Okafor, the owner of Five Star Luxury Hotel at Lekki was hosting a party that evening in her hotel.Only the wealthy people in town had access to be invited; Ministers, Commissioners, Musicians, Celebrities, and so on.But somehow, I stole the invitation card from the post man who was delivering the invitation cards.I was at the park that saturday afternoon, watching parents, children and young couples having fun, and letting the cool breeze soothe my physical frame, when a postman stopped his motorcycle at the side of where I was sitting. And hurried into the bushy part of the park to take a piss. Poor guy must have been pressed.The nosy part of me urged me to stand up, take the lead of the box, and peeked in. That was how I saw Rachel Okafor's name written on one of the inv
AlexShe stared at me oddly, with her eyes studying my face. I knew it was stupid of me grabbing her by the arm, but I felt the urge to help her."Listen to me." I said, tightening my grip on her arm, when she tried breaking free from my hold. Raising her head up to look at me, her face twisted into a giant scowl."I saw and heard everything that occurred between you and the usher guy at the door. I'll help you get a dress." I offered.Her big eyes shone and her sassy mouth quivered.Although, she was dressed like a boy, but that couldn't disguise the fact that she was pretty. She was light skinned, tall, bony with no curves and gangly. Big bulgy eyes and full luscious lips. She wasn't smiling but her dimples were visible.
MiaI made my way into Ben&Jj'sthat same evening after my encounter with the rude lawyer. After I had alighted from his car, I took a cab to Ben&Jj's.It was one of my favoriteeatery. The atmosphere was always cool and lovely. Plus taste of food was like heaven. It was the second place that made me feel at comfy.There every one minded his or her business because they were after the delicious taste of their delicacy.Food at Been& Jj's was at a very affordable price, that was the main reason I chose it as my favourite.I slumped on a chair, not too far from the kitchen entrance. That was my favorite tabletop. I watched as the heavy fans hung the celling spun lazily, decreasing the smell of varieties of mouth watering meals. And it made me forget about
MiaI frowned, wondering why wealthy people derived pleasure in showing off their wealth. Who the heck would come to Ben&Jj's with a convoy? Obviously the person wanted to showcase his wealth. I hissed.A very huge guy hopped out from the limousine, walked up to me, and informed me that his boss wanted to see me. This statement got me pissed and amused the same time."Who the hell is your boss? And why does he wants to see me?"I asked scowling up at him. Then it occurred to me that it might be Rachael who had wanted to see me. Perhaps, she was told about me, and has made the decision to meet with me.The anger I had in me died down, when that floated over my head."Listen to me, if you don't get your flat ass into the car, I'm going to have to force you in myself."
