LEIGH-ARI
Three full days passed and my new neighbor and I continued our newly formed routine. I would wake up in the morning and go to work, and then come back at night to have dinner with her. Laura joined us two days back and like I, fell in love with Valerie. She was such an open, easy-going person that made everyone feel comfortable around her. Although she was way too classy and fancier than us, she was really a nice person.
Last night we had plans to go out for drinks, only to pull an overnight shift. I had an 8 hour surgery and by the time I left the OR, I was just ready to hit my bed on the bed and get done with the day. I arrived at home to find her preparing to leave.
“I am just going to pick my boss from the airport. I will spend the night here and fly over to Italy tomorrow morning.” She explained when I looked at her questionably.
“And you dress like that when you go pick your boss? From the airport?” I gestured to he

LORENZO Arriving at O.X Apartments from the airport took approximately 30 minutes. Upon our arrival, we settled the tenant verification process and rode the elevator to where the apartment was. Valerie opened the door for me to enter but I couldn’t help embrace the one across mine and breathe it in: it felt like I was breathing her! Not the door, but her. I closed my eyes and leaned against the door frame with my front, then gently caressed it. Just right beyond this door; she was in there! “Come on in boss. You look like a freak when you do that!” Valerie teased causing me to unglue myself from the door and enter inside my apartment. I was actually gobsmacked and awed by how neat and clean the place looked. The colors were well coordinated, from white, to gray and black! I guess Valerie was highly used to Verzi’s OCDs. I walked around taking in the place, and I was actually in love with it. Compared to the Dark Woods Castle, this seemed rather uncomfortably

LEIGH-ARIThe day rolled by quickly and at some point, I had to drag myself out of bed and begin with the affairs of the day! When I checked the clock, it was well after 3pm and I casually shrugged. So far there have been no calls from work and I was highly thankful! There was nothing that made me want to crawl into the earth than being woken up from a very restful sleep and being told you have to go to OR; then spend yet another 6 or more house on feet sewing someone close.It was good to save lives yes; but good heavens was it tiresome!Laura called in to check up on me and filled me in with what had happened with her boyfriend. She sounded so down and I knew I had to be a knight in a shining armor and cheer her up. I cleaned up quickly and did a few house chores, placed things accordingly and bathed up well. By the time I was done, it was right after 5 and Laura was about to leave work.The plan was to go spoil her at some bar and get a few drinks, and

LEIGH-ARII worked throughout the day getting ready for the annual ceremony and before I knew it, Laura and I were driving back to my apartment. She was staying for the night and I was rather happy to have her. I loved Laura so much; she just got to me without even trying. We joked a lot, cried together, dissed people together! She was my human diary and I appreciated everything about her.“So how do you think the boss neighbour looks like?” She inquired jiggling her eyebrows! I looked at her and then busted out; then focused my attention back to the road!“I don’t know honey! He’s probably a guy in his 40’s, with a head that’s already balding, a very ugly goatee and a pot belly!” I replied causing her to double over with laughter. I joined her and giggled along at the idea of an old guy, with a big belly!“There’s no way Valerie would be involved with such a guy I mean dah! Have you seen her? Sh

LORENZO Once I was behind the safety of closed doors of my apartment; I let loose. I clutched my stomach tightly and laughed! I laughed so hard that I had to crawl to the couch and plant myself face first; then continue laughing! Never, in my wildest dream had I imagined that my very first encounter, after a decade, with Leigh would be that way! Man she was feisty! Holy pregnant cow. I reached for my phone and quickly dialed Verzi, he answered on the third ring and began chuckling as soon as he read my mood! “I am listening!” “You won’t believe what just happened!” I cackled as I heaved out for air. I spent the next 20 minutes explaining to him about what had just happened. How Leigh even had me take off my t-shirt just so she sees that I really wasn’t Verzi. We laughed so hard and I was really happy! I have never laughed like this in my entire life. She had been scared yes, at the same time; she was trying to put the brave facade. Lik

LEIGH-ARIThe following day, Laura and I got up early and piled up into my car and left for work. Before leaving, we had tried to catch even the slightest movement from the apartment across the hallway; but came up with nothing! And that meant one thing:My neighbor spent the night at the police station.Although that was rather unsettling, I felt like maybe I did what I had to do for my safety! Yes I was guilty, especially because the guy now, different from the guy previously. However, they weren’t that different. The only thing that was different this time was the lack of tattoos and gunshot wounds and scars. But from there, the voice, the physique, everything screamed the tattooed guy I met that day! And I really didn’t believe that it were two different people! Yes there were lots of coincidences in this life but come on guys! How can someone be a spitting image of someone and not know that particular person? I mean the guy is an absolute replic

LORENZOGosh she’s so beautiful!I thought to myself as I intently watched as she scooped some creamy pasta with her fork, unhurriedly rolled it while she subconsciously licked her lips, before placing the fork into her mouth and slowly sucked on it. She went in by shutting her eyes closed and let out a barely audible moan of appreciation! She didn’t mean for me to hear it, but my ears were as far as perked to catch any sound that she made!My eyes dropped to her lips where a bit of cream was on the side of her mouth. My hand itched to wipe it, my mouth drooled to lick that but I had myself in good reigns!“So Mr. Cattanio, you own a multi-gazillion company, you are married to another rich guy and you two share your assistant?” She opened her eyes and stared at me expectantly. My brows furrowed in confusion as I tried to make sense of what she just said!Did my little girl think I was gay? Holy crap!“Well, our

LORENZO I had previously received some news from St Andrews Hospital that they wanted to host their annual party. Not only was I a surprise guest to the party, but it was going to be held at CATT Hotel this year. You can imagine my happiness when I realized that I was going to have more of Leigh-A*i to myself because of it! To top it all, the hospital management agreed when I asked them to put her on the guest management for the ceremony so yeah! You guessed it! Things were going to be lit! I had laid the news to Verzi and man was he jealous of me! I teased him a lot just so as to rub the salt in the wound that I was near our girl; and he wasn’t! His reactions when I told him what had transpired always managed to kill me! The day of the party rolled over quickly and before I knew it, the hotel was busy preparing for it! It was going to be held tomorrow night and I honestly couldn’t wait to be there! Just like usual, I invited “my neighbor” for dinner but sadl

LEIGH-ARIThere was no way in hell I could have imagined that Lorenzo Cattanio aka my neighbor who cooks panty dropping spaghetti was our party’s surprise guest who donated gazillions to our hospital. When I mounted the stage and called out everyone who made the donations, I had been so curious as to who graced us with such an impeccable endowment!There was no way I thought of him. I didn’t even know he was here today. Imagine my surprise when my eyes landed on his name after opening that damn envelope. My jaw flat out dropped. And then when he appeared from the far corner in his mighty glory, I just… I couldn’t. He was so hot. Like insanely hot. No man was allowed to look that way. Especially a married man! I mean that wasn’t fair in all ways!He was dressed neatly in the maroon Armani three piece suite with a black tie that made him look like something that just jumped from a magazine. I had watched him as he gracefully made his
