"Lexi! Lexi! Lexi!" I heard my sister's voice from far away, I was in a dream
Knock knock
"Lexi aren't you going to work?"
Knock knock knock knock knock
"Lexi! Lexi! Lexi!" She thundered and that got to me
"Yes" I answered sluggishly
"Aren't you going to work?"
"I'm going. I will go"
"You are going to be late"
Last night came back to me and I checked the room instantly for Jason, who was gone
"Thanks for waking me up"
"You are welcome. I will be on my way now"
"Alright bye"
"Oh Lexi!"
"Yes"
"We're out of groceries, so make sure to get some on your way back home. The money is on the table"
"I might come home late. So maybe you should get it instead"
"You going out with Peter?"
"No. I and Peter are no longer a couple"
"What!? What happened?" Since when?"
"We just decided to break up since we are no longer feeling it"
"That explains why I've not been seeing him
I changed into a simple gown and waited for Peter, who showed up a minute past seven.The whole ride was in silence and I wondered what was going on. He packed his car and we made our way to a street bench, where we have sat on several times to enjoy the evening cool breeze"Congratulations""For what?""For being employed""Thanks""So how was work today?""Great""So Lexi" he said and breathed in and out heavily"Yes""I'm sorry for not being able to satisfy you. I understand your pain and I'm ready to give in to you"I was shocked by his commitment but I wasn't feeling the spark I once felt for him"Really?""Yes. I've thought about it and I realized that you are right. I'm ready to do anything for you. I love you"I hugged him instead because I couldn't say those words back to him. Not after tasting the startler"I love you so much Lexi. I'm going to do everything you want if you want
I went back to my office to continue the search for the file which I later found in another file on my table."How come?" I thoughtI took it out, matched to his office and dropped it with an I don't care attitude"What is that?" He asked"The file" I answered and went back to my office without looking back even though I could feel his eyes on me with every step I was takingLater in the day, Cynthia sent a text to me and I was about to reply when a very tall and beautiful young lady came into my office"Good afternoon, how can I help you?" I asked with my professional smile plattered to my faceThe woman gave me an irritated look and said just one word which broke my heart"Dixie"'So she is Dixie. I was hoping she wouldn't come'I compared myself to her and I knew I have no chance of competing with her.After spending an hour with him in his office, they left and Dixie waved and winked at me on the
I pulled out some Doritos once I was in her apartment and sat in front of her TV to continue my Adam Lee movie since she too already have the movieFew hours later, Peter texted me 'Thinking about you' which I ignored. I continued my movie and have already started enjoying being unemployed when another message popped up on my phone 'Where the hell are you?' from Jason"Arrogant asshole" I murmured and continued my movie 'Why are you not in your office?'"Ask me one more time" I said with a mouthful of
I turned on my phone as soon as I woke up on Saturday morning, took my bath and brush my teeth with an extra toothbrush and was on my way to the living room to continue the movie when my phone started ringing, it was an unknown number."Hello" I said calmly"Where were you last night?" Jason's angry voice asked"It's none of your business""You weren't in your room last night""You have no right to enter my room without my permission""I have every right because you are mine""I'm not yours! I'm nobody's property!""Lexi, I'm waiting for you across the street in front of your house. Come let's talk" he said calmly"I'm busy right now" I said while Cynthia took a seat beside me "I'm with my girlfriend""Wait! what!? Girlfriend?""Yeah girlfriend""But you aren't into girls, are you?" He asked with trembling voice"I owe you no explanation, ex boss" I replied and hung up on him"That guy is really into
"I will be leaving soon because of my sister" I said to him"You don't have to because I've sent her a message that you will be going on a business trip with me this weekend""You did what!? She isn't someone you can mess with. She is my family""I know. I wasn't messing with her""Of course, you were!""I didn't know you are going to be this mad, I just wanted us to spend sometime together but since you don't want to, you can call her and tell her that the trip is cancelled""Is that what you're supposed to say?""What do you expect me to say? I told you I wasn't messing with her""Of course, you aren't messing with her but her younger sister""Are you always this mad" he asked, got out of his seat and started making his way to me"Yeah. Whenever you are involved""But you were this sweet girl during our first night""That was because I didn't know that you are such an asshole""Are you sending me a signa
"We are going somewhere tomorrow evening" Jason declared after another round of sex which ended up on his King size bed."Where?" I asked while facing him on the bed"Wait and see, and your bag is in the closet""Okay but where are we going tomorrow evening?""Wait and see" he repeated"I'm asking because I have no clothes here with me""I ordered some for you. They are in the closet" he answered cockily before shifting closer to me"How come you know my size?""You asked to many questions" he replied and gave me a peck on my forehead"Are you doing that to shut me up?" I asked while looking him straight in the eye"Is it working?""No" I lied"Do you want me to try again?""No and less I forget, are you always alone in this house?""Yeah, most times""And the other few times?""With friends""You have friends?" I asked unbelievably"Yeah. What do you expect""I ca
Jason came out ten minutes later with a livid expression and we went back to his house in absolute silence."Is everything okay?" I asked him for the tenth time when I noticed that he wasn't comfortable in his own skin because he kept tossing and turning every now and then but he didn't reply"Do you care for some drink?" He asked as he was getting out of bed without waiting for my reply..I joined him five minutes later and got myself a wine glass before joining him"That girl name is Sofia" he said after his third glass of wine"I'm not asking""I know. I just want you to know" he replied before pouring more wine into his glass "we were childhood friends. I've known her for almost all my life and we've been in an on and off relationship for sometime now""Why are you telling me all this?""Because I want you to know. No one understands me. My father always want me to dance to his tune. I wanted be a writer but my
We got to work as early as possible on Monday morning and had a very quick sex on his table before the others arrival.When Jada came across me, she was shocked and her reaction reminded me of what happened in front of her last week friday and I knew I had to do something before she started spreading shit about me the way she does.I counted the second until the client that was with Jason was gone and went straight inside his office without even knocking"Lexi, how may I help you?" He asked professional"Jada! It's about Jada""What is about her?""She saw what happened. She saw us""And you're worried?" He smirked"Who wouldn't be? Of course, I am""Stop panicking, I gat it under control""Did you threaten her?""For God sake, she is my assistant. She knows almost everything about me. Don't worry, your secret is safe with her. Our secret is safe with her"'Our' did he just said 'our'. OMG! Our
