Rita’s POV My hands trembled as I managed to slide to the receiver. “Hello Zane, I…I.. I am…so..sorry. I… I… forgot to reach out to you after the shower and that’s so..so bad of me” I apologized, stuttering without hearing from him first. “No honey, I am the one who is sorry. I slept off not quite long, and I'm still very much sleepy. I don't know how to let you know that I don't think we can chat tonight. I'm very sorry for ruining our plans” He said. “Oh!” I mouthed, relieved. “I’m sorry” He repeated. “Err.. No problem. It’s actually fine. I feel tired and not in the mood to talk at length too. I also didn't know how to tell you especially after what I have done lately!” Lies and more lies! “Good night to you and sweet dreams” I wished. “Sweet dreams” He repeated and hung up the call. I took a deep breathe in and exhaled them all out, feeling completely relieved now. I picked up my phone and switched it off instantly to avoid any more calls that could make me panic. I pract
Rita’s POV I met Evelyn and Adam at the bus stop and we scurried into the company together while we nattered all along. “How was the weekend guys?” I asked them. “Great, it was great” They responded simultaneously and chuckled together, giving themselves a knowing gaze. Well, whatever. “Mine was fantastic too” I continued;” From visiting my parents to going on a date with Finn” “You went on a date with Finn?” They exclaimed. “Are you dating Finn?” Adam further asked. “Nah. Finn showed up at my parents' place to substitute for my boyfriend, he asked me to go on a date with him to pay him back” I briefly explained. “How come I do not know anything about this at all?” Adam looked puzzled. “That’s because Rita and I work in the same office which made us more intimate and I know every action she's about taking. Fun fact, I was the one who advised her to ask Finn to replace her boyfriend” Evelyn said. “Finn must be a paid actor” I stated. “Tell me everything, anything at all that
Rita’s POV Evelyn assisted me with the tasks, and swiftly, we were able to clear several pending orders. Then it was high time to submit the obtained data for the day as usual. Evelyn diligently arranged and piled up the files, she intended to go submit them to Finn but today, I wanted to go to him myself. For some unknown reasons, I was eager to see Finn, I wanted to spend some time with him; maybe I’ll stylishly resume by thanking him for all he has done for me in a way I wouldn’t feel awkward. After all, I enjoyed his company last night and I want to be around him again. Gosh! I love it when he stares right into my soul. Finn was on a phone call when I arrived at his office, his personal assistant wasn’t inside so he gestured me to place the files on the table which I did, but I sat down, waiting for him to end the call, so we could have a one on one conversation. Finn was smiling and grinning from ear to ear as if the caller could see him. He seemed to be very exicted to speak
Rita’s POVAfter the short break, there wasn’t really anything serious to attend to, Evelyn has stolen the opportunity to stay with her boyfriend, leaving me all alone.I rested my head on the desk and a soft exhale escaped my nostrils.My shoulders mellowed down when I raised my head up and fixed my eyes into the space. I wasn’t staring at anything in particular but different thoughts ran through my mind and I felt a deep ache in my left chest region (Heart)I released another sigh once I concluded to ask Finn what went wrong instead of listening to the crazy assumptions in my head.I dashed out of my office into Finn office without knocking, I met him alone busy with the computer. Non challant Charles was absent, he must have left early like he used to.“Finn, are you okay?” I moved closer towards him but didn’t take a seat.He raised his head up, surprised to see me.“I am fine” He replied plainly.“Are you mad at me or something, did I do anything wrong?” I asked him straight away
Rita’s POV That very day when I got home, I engaged myself in some random stuff that wouldn't make me think about Finn. I cooked, ate, rested enough and tried to while away time. It suddenly drew on me that I was missing someone, Zane! He hasn't reached out to me yet! I dialed his number right away. At that moment, I badly wanted his companion. On the second ring, he finally picked up his call. “Hello babe, I am back from work” I announced, speaking into the phone. “Ugh! Why does it sound like it’s been a long long time since we heard each other’s voice?” He said. “You are right, it’s been a while since we had a heart to heart communication. My bad!” I tried to apologise but I heard him chuckle. Nowadays, he seemed to care less about my uncommitted attitude towards him. As if he was suspicious that I was cheating on him, now he’s probably no longer interested in the relationship or perhaps, he’s just used to my uncommitted behavior. I don't know but the feeling of guilt welled
Rita’s POV We resumed the video call, he was sitted stack naked, face cropped out, he slowly zoomed in and out through all other part of his body and focused more on his Mr B.D, I wasn't really startled but my eyes giggled because I could literally feel a tingling touch in between my legs. Since I didn't have to hold the phone while he could view me, I stood right in front of the phone, slowing swaying round as I tried to find a s*xy pose, I assumed his gaze was probably roaming down my body. “Cat got your tongue?” I teased, doing a little twirl for him, giving him the view from every angle. “Fvck woman! Are you trying to kill me?” He moaned. “ I learnt from the best” A smile formed on my lips. I love the fact that I already made him moan. “I find it hard to decide whether to fly down there at this moment or continue to look at you all night. You are breathtaking” He said. If my face could look redder than it just did. “You can do both '' I suggested, darting out my tongue to w
Rita’s POV While we were less busy at work, I assisted Evelyn to share Adam’s birthday invitation card secretly yet within the company without making Adam aware about it. Although I tried to ignore Finn throughout today, I eagerly accepted to go give him an invitation card. “Good day Charles, Good day Mr Finn” I greeted formally, no single string attached after all. “Good day beautiful angel!” Charles replied. While Finn slowly raised his head, acknowledging my greetings with a nod, looks like he then reluctantly said; “Good day to you too Rita” I moved closer then dropped the invitation card on his table. “Adam’s birthday. Evelyn says your presence will be appreciated and mind you, this is a secret away from Adam” I warned. He picked up the card, unsealed it and skimmed through. “Happy birthday in advance to your best friend” He replied. “Can I get an invitation card too?” Charles requested. I smiled and drew closer to him. “Of course, I'm sure Evelyn wouldn't mind. You ar
“So I spoke with Rita today, we had a serious lengthy discussion” Adam informed Finn. “What?? What did you tell her?” Finn squeaked. “Not a single hint about for true identity. Chill” “True, she would have dashed into my office to land a hot dirty slap on my face. So was it just a usual random conversation with her?” Yet he asked to confirm. “Well, I wanted to know her own side of the story and I figured that you still communicate with her as Zane, you also had a great chat yesterday!” Adam emphasized on the word ‘Great’ “She told you that?” Finn exclaimed. “Rita told me she and Zane are on great terms but you are hostile towards her as Finn. So what’s the point?” “I do not know what I’m doing anymore Adam, I told you it’s difficult and now it’s getting out of my hands. I couldn’t help but communicate with her as Zane” He grumbled. “Well just so you know, it’s more better if you end things with her completely as the character Zane and move on with her as Finn forever, forever b
