" Oh my! look at that beauty, what is she doing here?" one customer said." she's so beautiful. look at her dressing, although simple, she looks so hot." another lady said." What an angelic face. I wish I could be as beautiful as her." The three girls chatted happily not minding to lower their words and obviously, Mira heard them. She flashed them a sweet smile making the girls squeel happily." Wow look at that smile. if I was a man,I would definitely go after her." I've girl chirped in." I can bend just for her." another one said giggling happily.Mira felt a chill down her spine upon hearing their discussion. She was straight, okay? And she wasn't interested in having a lady for a boyfriend.She took a seat and a waiter walked to her side." good afternoon,what can I get you?" Despite this being a local Street Cafe,the service girl was very respectful and professional." Am here to pick up Vera Gray. is her shift over?" Mira replied respectfully. They say that respect was a two w
After placing Mira on a chair,Vera rushed to bring ice cubes which she gently applied on Mira's ankle while complaining," You really don't know how to be careful. How did you survive these years without me?" " It was hard without you." Mira honestly replied, letting the tears of grievance she had never shed since she came back flow without restraint. She leaned on Vera's shoulder as she sobbed pitifully. Crying the pain of being stupid enough to listen to rumours and believe to fabricated evidence. She cried for the harmonious relationship she ruined between them. She cried for the familial love the Gray family had shown her and which she had discarded without a second thought m She sobbed for the years lost. All her pent up emotions surfaced that moment Vera reminded her how dependent of her she had been.The things that they did together,the promises they made together,the dreams they had together... all that had been plurged into an abyss and Al left was regrets. Alas,that was the
Engrossed in admiring the simple yet elegant interior of the house, Mira didn't realize when the two ladies finally finished their baking section and emerged to the sitting room where she sat.Stella was taken aback seeing the person seated comfortably on the sofa. She blinked her eyes to make sure she wasn't seeing things or her eyes weren't playing tricks to her the older she got.But even after blinking severally,the silhouette of the lady seated there did not change proving to her that she was really there... in her house." Mira?" She called, still unsure. She felt a myriad of emotions swirl in her and before she could stop herself, she was already running to the Lady and embracing her in a tight motherly hug.Mira who was caught unprepared was pushed back by the tight hug. If she wasn't seated on the sofa, she would sure she sprawling on the ground from the intensity of the embrace. The warmth of the hug brought countless memories from years back. She remembered how Vera would
Vera simply ignored her mother's remark and walked back to the house. She would be lying to herself if she said she had been this happier in the last two years. She knew that Mira was her Happy pill but how can she admit that? Definitely not,not even to her mother.The following day, Vera got off work and hour earlier. Ofcourse, she had to beg her lady boss to be allowed to leave earlier. She wanted to prepare herself by the time Mira fetches her. She was excited to spend time with her friend and chat like old times.At the exact mentioned time, Mira arrived not today,she was driving her her Toyota Camry. Soon,the two left for the designated meeting point.Arriving at the agreed Cafe,Mira was the first to step out of the car leading the way for Vera is hi just followed her." Over here." Mira immediately spotted Yolanda who was already seated at a table near a window. The place allowed her to overlook the city that was bustling with life with cars zooming off and people walking along
Minutes to the wait, Mira saw a panicked man rushing towards the labour, still in his office suit carrying with him a traveling handbag." Excuse me,can I Know where my wife has been admitted? Her name is Yolanda Adams." The man inquired from a passing nurse. He appeared like a panicked man but Mira translated it to worry,he was worried for his wife." She's right in that room but she's undergoing labour. You can't enter. You can wait outside with her sisters." The nurse informed pointing at Vera and Mira who were patiently waiting outside the labour ward."S- sisters?" Mr Adams stuttered wondering if the nurse was mistaking something but then remembered the words of the chauffer assigned for his wife. " Her friends rushed madam to the hospital and asked me to get her maternity supplies." Those were the words his chauffer said. So these sisters are Yolanda's friends,,?The nurse left the man,he seemed pretty confused. Ofcourse as a nurse who has been working in the maternity departmen
" Nora.." Joahkim called her. Even after three years,he still can't seem to let her go even after she Left him broken." Joahkim?" Nora called looking around as if scared they would be seen by others. " What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you to stay away from me?" Nora bashed at him with a look of disdain." I-i just..." Joahkim cursed inwardly. Everytime he faced her,he would be tongue-tied,his brain refusing to function." What? cat got your tongue?" her mocking voice rung in the air causing Joahkim to clench his fists." You should leave. my husband is about to come back.I don't want him seeing us together and misunderstanding. He gets pretty jealous." Nora said looking away as if the sight of him was disgusting in her eyes.Joahkim could feel his heart clenching in pain. He loved her, he still does even after she betrayed him with his friend. Because of her,he lost a friend but he was unwilling to let go. He couldn't or so he thought." Are you happy?" He found himself asking
After passing through a store and getting enough liquor bottles, Vera and Joahkim drove to joahkim's house in his car.The house wasn't far from the hospital Joahkim worked at. He was a doctor at the inpatient department and had worked there since he graduated as a doctor .After parking the car,he ushered Vera out helping her carry the shopping bag they bought on their way." Come on in." he said gesturing for her to step inside after he unlocked the door." Thank you." Vera replied walking in after changing her shoes to homewear slippers." You still keep her stuff around?" Vera questioned. Her voice had a hint of... jealousy which Joahkim failed to notice." Yeah,the delusional me still thinks she will look back at me." Joahkim said in self mockery. Even he knew he was hopeless thinking that Nora would ever come back to him after all this time." Keep hoping then." Vera replied,not wanting to stretch on the conversation. Anything about that woman was enough to piss her off. She did
Joahkim was surprised even in his drunkard condition. Her words warmed his heart. She said she still wanted him even with his flaws.Vera saw how he was looking at her like she was some treasure and she felt lost in his eyes. His gaze lit a fire of passion in the deepest of her body. Coupled with the drinks they took,Vera threw all caution to the wind and kissed him.She tasted him. His warm and soft lips she had been dreaming of kissing for two years. In her mind,all she had was live for the moment.She knew he was vulnerable at this point but she allowed herself to be sinful,just for once and take advantage of him. Maybe after tonight,she will never get a chance like this so why not fulfill her lifelong desires.Joahkim felt her kiss him. It was a kiss full of longing and passion. It spelt desire... desire for him and he got carried away and kissed her back.The two kissed for a long time, exploring each other with their tongues until God knows how they ended up in bed and naked.Ve
