A DATE & A THERAPISTDiana was not so sure if she was moving fast or slow with Nicholas at this point. She was scared to admit that she didn't give much of a fuck, to be honest.The way she saw it, Matteo had his fun at the expense of her emotions and she was willing to do the same to his detriment."It's a date then. Let me allow you to get back to work," Nicholas proclaimed heartily."See you later Nicky," Diana joked."How long were you holding that in?" Nicholas asked in amusement."Since the day you told me to call you Nick," Diana said and cracked up.Nicholas chuckled loudly after her."That long?" Nicholas asked with a smile."You have no idea," Diana said as she cleaned a teardrop from the corner of her left eye.What she said was not even funny, Nicholas just has a way of loosening her up. He was so open to her opinion and genuinely listened when she spoke.He got up and straightened his suit and turned to the door. He walked with his shoulders held high and his head straig

THE BLACK KNIGHTMatteo ignored Priscilla the whole time.He showed her in his subtle ways that he was in no mood for bullshit. He nursed the drink he gave her and watched it stir.Priscilla was beaming from ear to ear as she sat comfortably across Matteo. She had him where she wanted him which was beside her but he was sitting in front of her with a vacant look.For the first time in her life, she could not read Matteo and it excited her so much. She did not know his game nor did she know his move. This surprised her. She shook with excitement as her cold champagne went down her throat.It took a while before Priscilla broke the silence."We should catch up, it's going to be a long flight," She quipped while trying to break the mood that Matteo had."I don't mind the silence," Matteo dryly answered. He was not ready to give in to her bullshit. All he cared about was getting things done immediately."Well, I do and it's driving me nuts," Priscilla responded and sat up."That does not

A LUNCH DATENicholas chose a fast food restaurant for their lunch location.Workers of the company frequented the place before and after reporting for their various duties. He believed that this would be the best place for them since he had gotten good reviews from them.Diana was giddy with excitement and nervousness. It was becoming a habit, to hang out with Nicholas who was a guy outside of her marriage. She followed Nicholas as he led her to the cozy little booth on the corner with a smile. She was sure that if Maria could see her right now, then she would definitely be squealing with excitement.It was just noon and the restaurant was fairly filled up with customers. A waitress approached the booth with a friendly smile and handed two menus to the couple.Diana was genuinely famished. In her haste to get out of the house earlier, she had forgotten to make a light breakfast for herself. Besides it would take too much time and noise to move around in the kitchen.She opened her me

STUCK WITH PRISCILLAPriscilla walked back to the house dreading her imminent confrontation with her stubborn and opinionated future grandmother-in-law. She passed by the old maid again and completely ignored her this time. But the old maid didn't seem to mind, she just kept smiling. Priscilla entered the house and headed for Nana's chamber to relay the bad news to her. However, the room was empty by the time she got there. She wondered where Nana could be. She headed for the official house bell and rang for the butler, she wasn't about to start searching this big house for the old bitch. The butler emerged from a dark room and arrogantly strode towards her. Priscilla inwardly groaned at the approaching servant. She could not stand his pompous ass. She adjusted her dress unconsciously and faked a smile. "Festus, may I know the whereabouts of the Lady, please," she asked politely, hoping her falsehood wasn't evident. Festus hesitated for a moment, then replied, "I'm sorry, but I

THE BLACK HOUNDSurvey. Blend in. Analyze. Extract information. Neutralize.These were the six steps that the Black Hound followed to complete any mission that was given to them, successfully.Each step involved careful planning, execution, and evaluation to ensure maximum efficiency. On the first day of his mission, he disguised himself as a janitor for the company. It had felt almost impossible but he went though with it.The Black Hound had put on a grey uniform with a name tag that read "Steve" and began cleaning the offices. Steve worked diligently, wiping down desks and emptying trash bins. He didn't mind the repetitive work, as it gave him time to think. He also liked the fact that he was in a position where no one would notice him or even suspect him.He took mental pictures of the parking lot and found an anomaly. One particular vehicle did not belong in the parking lot. The Black Hound noted an old blue Camaro.There were certain cars that even businessmen did not ride. The
