Trina's P.O.V ( the night).
Today's officially the worse day of my life, even when I thought it'd be my best. In just one day, I lost my vest friend, my only relative, my only motivation, my everything, my dad.
I have nothing to live for now, but I'm too overly ambitious to kill myself. I have so many dreams I'm yet to fulfil but most of them were for my dad and now he's gone everything's over now.
I'm in my house but everywhere I look at, has my dad there. I keep remembering even just by seeing my carpet. I stood up in tears, got to my room and changed into the gown my dad bought for me for my graduation dinner but it won't hold anymore as today's my graduation and my dad's gone.

I stop in front of a bar as I heard my favorite song (7 rings by Ariana Grande) playing, I walked in and went straight to the counter to order a drink, I got tequila and downed it, when suddenly this overly handsome looking man came and sat next to me, ordering the same thing I did and looked straight at me, and did I love those hazel eyes! Hell yeah! But my mind is somewhere else, I can't even fully admire this god in front of me.
"Hi". He said and I instantly loved his voice, I've always been drawn to men with firm/deep voices.
"Hi". I answered back fiddling with the tequila in my hand, I was kinda fidgeting but I hide it well. Many people think I'm overly confident but I'm really shy. I notice him staring at me so I looked at him but he seemed in a daze.
"Um...excuse me". I said as he smiled lightly.
"Oh,um...sorry for staring". He said, shaking his head a little, making me smile and almost blush yeah, you got it right, I don't really blush.
"Mind if I stay with you as we enjoy the night?". He asks, looking straight into my eyes for the second time. Why would some like this wanna spend time with me? He looks important even in his casuals.
"I don't mind". I answered looking down but after a little while of us talking him especially. I really don't get why he's still talking to me after giving him single answers, and fake smiling that was totally obvious.
The song was getting too loud but I said nothing, didn't wanna seem whiny but it got to an extent I had to point it out or I might as well go deaf.
"The music is a little too loud, can we leave here?...um, that is if you wanna though!". I yelled over the music, but he heard me and nodded.
"Of course, its really loud". he responded, standing up with me at almost the same pace except I used my ass to move the chair and I caught him looking at me, my ass specifically.
we headed to the car park, him in front and I just right behind him, I've been trying to hold my tears cos I really don't wanna cry in front of a stranger but tears are hard to fight. I tried my best not to think about my dad but since the song 7rings started playing, my strong resolve was shattered.
We got to his car and I opened the door even when I saw him coming to do that half way, I sat there but it only made things worse cos I remembered my dad always saying I'll get a car if I graduate with at least a second class upper nad I did but no car now and that's when I lost it. I started crying and sniffing, if this guy throws me out of the car, I wouldn't blame him cos I've just been a pain in the ass all through.
He started asking what happened, if he hurt me, and if my crying was hiss fault. I started shaking my head 'no' indicating he is not the cause of my tears. Then he hugged me, to say I was surprised is an understatement but I hugged him back crying some more until I eventually stopped. I really can't look at his eyes right now, cos I'm embarrassed as f*ck.
I felt his eyes on me after a little while and I looked back, only to find him leaning towards me. I want to kiss him but I wanna run also
How can I just kiss a total stranger...
I just cried in front of him
I just hugged him
He's devilishly handsome and he wants to kiss me?
Well, I'll give him what he wants since he'll pull back after my lips are not his taste hmph.
I closed my eyes immediately his lips touched mine, it was pure bliss, I always taught kissing was just two lips touching, but I'm really feeling this, moreover, I need the distraction.
Why hasn't he pulled away, I must be a terrible kisser since I've kissed just one guy ever, but his rapid breathing and groans made me think otherwise and the little confidence I had boosted. I cross my seat over to his to straddle him and he moaned, it was very faint but I heard it alright. I stop, a part of me saying I should continue but another part of me is screaming.
I wanted to stand up but the look in this guy's eyes shattered my resolve, his eyes were silently pleading for me to continue. Then he asked confirming my thoughts.
"Why did you s-". And I smashed my lips on his, I didn't let him finish, earning a loud groan from him and that drove me wild, but I stopped again, remembering that I'm a virgin and if I continue, we'll have sex but then I want him just as much as he wants me call me irrational but yeah, I want him, now.
I looked back at his eyes, and they were filled with so much; confusion, list, want,admiration? What? What's there to admire? Well maybe I got that wrong.
Then, I started kissing down his chest after all he had taken it off, saving me the trouble. He tried stifling his moans but I heard it all I really can't believe I turned him on this much but I'm proud of it, don't blame me, its not everyday you see a Greek God wanting you bad bad.
He looked at me, silently asking for permission, and immediately I nodded, he turned me over and took if my clothes slowly,and taking time to look at every part he exposed. He did that till everything was off and we went all the way.
=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=
I woke up to the sound of an engine reviving, that's when I realised what I did but to be honest, I didn't regret it. He was so sweet, so tender. I woke up in his arms, his hold is really tight as I tried to pry myself away, he held on tighter what am I gonna do? He's gonna wake up anytime now, and I'm sure he'll be angry to still see me here. He might think I want something more.
Do I?
Its just a one night stand right?
Then, he muttered something and shifted a little, and I used that to my advantage, taking all my clothes and belongings, running away from 'the guy'.
Trina's P.O.V I got home by 6:00am, I looked around and resolved that I am gonna move on, that there's a reason for everything. I start by cleaning the mess I made yesterday. And after about 2 hours, the entire house was clean. Taking out my laptop, I began to look for job vacancies but most if them were not what I wanted. I saw a few I liked and applied, and was confident that with my CV, I'll get a good job.After applying to about five (5) companies, I shut down the laptop and went grocery shopping.Yes, I had money. Not just money for grocery shopping but money my father had been keeping all his life in my name. I'm legal to use it but no, I wanna work for mine.=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=One week laterI've been sent emails from three (3) of the companies to come for interviews, I've gone for the interviews but haven't received the feedback they promised, this had made me so down and frustrated but I ain't giving up.I stood up to the sound of the microwave indicat
Its been two weeks since I started working here, and its been good, my colleagues have been really accommodating and helpful and I also didn't miss the pitiful look they give me once in a while and my instincts tell me its because I'm working for Mr. Basma.He couldn't be that bad, nahHe's only human, right?Right!Today's the day I meet my supposedly devilish boss, I'm both anxious and terrified at the same time. To be honest, I can't help but dislike him a little, from the way people talk about him and also my little experience from working for him. You must be wondering how I've been working for him without seeing him for two weeks. Well, he's been assigning me duties through the Deputy Manager.=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•="We are going to have to start the meeting without him". One of the high ranked managers spoke up."No, we can't, you know how he gets when things are not done the way they're supposed to, and he's never late". One of the shareholders said to the man
When he said he missed me days back, I thought he'd be nice but nah, he's a full blown jerk. He's been sending me on ridiculous errands like the other day, he told me to look for a file at the library, I found it after some hours only to find out that he gave me the wrong name and section to find it, and yeah, I had to go back to sort those goddamn files again and he didn't even apologise. "Miss Lackley, I need you in my office right now". There he goes again, ordering me around. I swear one day I'm gonna snap even though the pay is beautiful. "You called, Sir?". I asked faking a small smile. "Yes, I'll need you to e-mail Crain industries about the issue I told you about earlier and visit the building to collect the document from the personal assistant of the CEO". He said, typing away and not even sparing me a glance. "Okay Sir but I'm assuming they're-". I was saying until he cut me off like he knew what was in my head. "Expecting you? Yes they are and they're waiting so be fast
After slamming the door yesterday, I just went home to cry my eyes out for two reasons; one I just lost a job and two, I lost my virginity to a jerk. I didn't regret it that night but now I do. Well, enough moping for me. Today's a new day and I'm gonna make the best of it by making it fun even though I've got no friends or family. So I made pancakes and eggs and ate to my fill, cuddled up in my oversized hoodie and switched Netflix on. I've been watching for a few minutes only to get a call."Ugh who's this human disturbing my peace. Is a lil time alone too much to ask?". I say to myself just as I was reaching for my phone. OMG what am I gonna say or do... But wait, why is he calling me?Y'all know who's calling? Guess, come on.It's LAWRENCE FU**ING BASMA."Hello Mr. Bas---" . He didn't even let me complete my sentence. " What time is it?". What a strange question."Uhm, It's 11:14, why do you ask?". I was utterly confused right now."Weren't you supposed to be at work by 9 am,
It's 2:am and I still am finding it difficult to sleep. Mr. Basma or should I say Lawrence left about an hour ago. He said 'i can't bring myself to leave, can I just stay over?'. He asked but I declined cause I know we ain't just gon sleep.You know what I'm talking about 😁Now waking up, it feels like I didn't even sleep at all and funny thing is that I'm not even feeling exhausted or tired. He'll, I'm excited, something that hasn't happened for a while.I got ready in thirty minutes and got to the office way too easy as I didn't see any employee here. I guess I'm just excited to see him, I thought but was interrupted by a woman's laughter.I wasn't as early as I thought then.What I saw next didn't shock me, it just felt like a slap on the face and I deserve it.I saw 'him' hugging a woman very intimately and kissing both her cheeks. Not being able to look anymore, I just turned and walked towards the elevator, preparing my professional face so I can get by today."Trina, I need yo
We kept on making out for a while, we even wanted to go further but I stopped when I heard a shutter sound. "What happened?". Lawrence asks not expecting my sudden jerk."I'm sorry, I know it's too early for this but I couldn't help myself, I'm really sorry Trina". He said, melting my heart further, and I could already see him blaming himself so I replied before he blames himself further."You're sweet, but that wasn't the reason why I stopped. I heard a shutter sound and I hope our pictures weren't taken if not it's gonna cause an uproar... You know you're famous and all". 'I said in panic cause I'm not ready for this we aren't even in a relationship and...'"Hey hey, it's fine... I didn't hear anything so I'm pretty sure you're mistaken okay? Don't panic". He said in a calm and soothing voice that I instantly calmed down."Okay fine, so where were we?". I said coming closer to kiss him but he turned away.HE TURNED AWAY HE JUST REJECTED MY KISSESOMG, is he already abandoning me
"The Rainers? Who are they?". I asked Jace but he just looked away like it was a forbidden subject."It's not my story to tell Trina, excuse me for a minute". He says and walks out making me frustrated who are these rainers? "They are bad news, that's all you need to know". Lawrence said with his blank facial mask back on but that just made me angry."So you're not going to tell me about them, when it's obvious that they are dangerous and could harm me? Do I look like a baby to you?. I need to know". I said without taking a breath, I really need to know so I can protect myself right?Or was I too forward?"You don't understand, if I tell you about them, you'll be harmed so just drop it". He said with a harsher tone and although I'm more furious I calm down."Okay then, fine". I said and he looked taken aback by my response, but his faced also shows deep concern and he walks up to me."I'm sorry but I can't tell you, please understand. I can't loose you". He spoke in a soft tone.But
Lawrence's P.O.VI've known for a while how I feel about her but I can't bring myself to admit that its love.It's a weak feeling, that I can't afford to have, it has hurt me, cause me to loose a lot, brought out great selfishness in me, and I vowed that I wouldn't love anyone again. Then, she came around and destroyed all my plans of never loving again without me noticing until I fell deep.Since the day I set my eyes on her at the board room, I knew but I acted tough and rough towards her thinking that will make it either reduce or stop but it just made it grow stronger as I couldn't bear to see her cry or upset especially because of me.I don't know what to do cause it's driving me insane just to look at her and not be able to show her what and how I feel.Since she came into my life, I haven't hurt anyone, thrown any anger tantrum or even fired anyone. There's this serene calmness that washes over me when she's around.I'll have to keep my feelings at bay because her safety is m
