I have been staying indoors for the past two days and my mother has not been happy with me for days. She expected me to do something and hinder Zina's trip but it was no longer in my power. I need to talk with Gabriel. He is in the best position to know the next line of action. I quickly picked up my phone and called his line but it was not connecting. My mother barged into my room and I was startled. "You scared me mom.""I don't see the reason why you will be scared. What is the next thing to do?""I am actually calling Gabriel but his number isn't connecting.""You see the reason why I told you that I do not trust that guy but you insisted.""Mom, you are too fast at concluding things. I just told you that his number is not connecting, we just have to exercise patience till his number connects back. Maybe it is out of network coverage or the phone might be switched off." "Will you keep shut! You can't be here and know what is happening there. Why must his line not connect?" I o
"Please have your seat. What do I offer you?""Just get me water." I rushed to the kitchen. Rinsed the glass cup and placed it correctly in the tray. I got out the bottled cold water and placed it beside the glass cup and took it to the living room. I placed the tray on the side stool and brought it closer to him. I raised the glass cup and opened the bottle of water and poured some good quantity into the cup. "Thank you so much." He gulped down almost everything and placed back the cup. I sat down quietly beside him. "What of your mom?""She is inside her room. Thank you for honoring this invitation." "So what exactly are you asking me to do again?""I am saying that you need to help me and suggest what I will do. I can't allow Zina to take my man away from me." "But I think there is nothing we can do now that will affect their relationship.""What do you mean?" I hate to hear that word relationship. "I mean, we have done a lot and they still haven't parted ways. So what do yo
I really miss my friend. I can't wait for her to come back and give me the gist about her trip. Since she traveled with Neil, Pascal has not allowed me to go back to my house. He is really spoiling me here. Pascal and I will be going to the factory tomorrow morning so that he will introduce me to his workers. I can't wait to start working and earning money of my own. I can't stop thanking Zina and Neil for what they did for me. If not for them, I wouldn't have met the love of my life. I stood up and moved over to the kitchen because I was thirsty. I opened the kitchen and saw that everything was so neat. Pascal's chef has gone home. The woman is so hardworking that she doesn't like seeing me in the kitchen. She believes that I am the wife of the house already and it's her duty to serve me. I don't know why I don't feel comfortable seeing her doing the job alone. She is just like a mother to me and it is so respectful that I watch without helping her. I know very well that she is d
I feel so tired after the day's meeting. It was such a wonderful day and tomorrow is another day. I had to go and take my evening bath before Neil came inside the room. He was busy discussing with some delegates that lodged in the same hotel with us. I had to leave him there and come up to take care of myself. I quickly took my bath and started my evening skin routine. I was busy applying so many things on my face that I didn't know when he came in. I looked in the mirror to see what I had done, only to see that someone was standing behind me. I was shocked that I quickly turned my back and saw Neil standing and smiling with his hands folded at his back. "Neil, you scared me." "Really? So you didn't hear when I opened the door?" "No, I was busy with my skin routine. Are you through with the men?" "Yes, tomorrow is another day. Get my bathing water ready." I had to stand up and move to the bathroom to get his bathing water ready. "It's ready. I made it warm for you." "You just
"Why do you like embarrassing me all the time?""I am doing that because everything about you is insinuating to me. I need you to get married as fast as possible." Those words really hit me hard. I never expected my mom would throw such words at me. I thought she supported and loved me all these while. Will I force a man to get married to me? What does she want me to do? "Honestly, I am shocked. I never expected those words from you mom.""What were you expecting? You wanted me to pay him from my bank when I don't have hope of more. It is not as if you work.""Don't try to change the topic mom. You are talking about me getting married and you made me look as if I have been refusing suitors. Are you not the one that wants richer men?""Everything I am saying is related to your complaints. Get yourself a husband since you don't want to work and earn. When the money we have now finishes, there is no Neil to send money to us because you messed everything up.""Messed everything up? How?
I started my work as the supervisor in the factory. I have my own special office and it was well equipped with the gadgets I need to make my work easier. I could remember yesterday that he brought me to the factory for the first time. We held a meeting at the board room where every member of the staff was seated and I was introduced as the new supervisor of the factory. I just thought that he would introduce me as his girlfriend also but he didn't do that.I never felt bad but I wanted everyone to know. Ladies and their ways of life. There is this respect we feel that will come to us when people know that you are the lover to the boss, just like Zina and Neil. I know how much respect Zina has commanded by answering the lover to Neil, her boss but our own case was not the same. I don't think the company would have been aware if not that Megan was playing stupid and making unnecessary noise. Well I never care. The only thing that interests me now is that I now have a job of my own an
I was already packing our bags against the next day. I was happy to be going back because I have missed home and also missed my friend. Staying in the hotel for days wasn't easy but at least I had fun and Neil made my stay enjoyable. Ouch! He told me that we would be going to his parents house to see them and he has already promised them that he will bring me to them. I wonder how long we are going to stay there. Neil came out of the bathroom where he went to take his night bath. "Hey babe, hope you enjoyed your bath?""Yeah, the water was hot and good for this cold weather. Are you packing our things already?""Yes, we don't need anything that will delay us." "Hmmm, you are perfect. I can see that you are ready to travel back home.""Why not, I have missed my friend, Sandra especially." "Interesting, remember that we will be visiting my family house very soon." "Yeah,I am aware but we need to rest from our trip before embarking on another trip." "I can just give you two days r
"So you wanted us to see.""Yeah, it's very urgent. I will be giving you…" I dipped my hand inside my bag and brought out seven hundred dollars. "Here, take this as you embark on another job" I placed the money in front of him. He touched it and counted it. "Okay, now you are doing what I expected. So how do we go about the job?""First and foremost, I wouldn't want my mother to hear about this deal and I don't want her to be aware that I gave you some cash.""But she has been in this from the beginning." "Yeah, I know but I don't want to involve her again. This is just between me and you.""It's fine, now let us get into business." "Good! How do we proceed? She mentioned kidnap which is a very good idea but how simple will it be?""Do you have her contact?""Who? Zina?""Yes.""Sure, I have it.""Good because it will be a good idea. I am sure you have never called her with your cell phone.""No, and she doesn't have my number." "Alright, I won't use my line to call her because sh
