Aletta and Jeanne entered the house they were to stay at while they were having dinner."Have you had dinner?" Jessica asked Jeanne as they passed by."Yes," Jeanne answered without looking back."Aren't you going to say Hello to Alicia and Jason?" Jessica asked again.Jeanne stopped in her tracks and cleared her throat. "Hello Aunty Alicia and Uncle Jason" she said turning back to face them. She had had a long day and was feeling very exhausted.Both of them acted like tourists in a new place and tried their best to have as much fun as they could. "Jeanne looking as beautiful as always" Alicia commented with a smile. "Thank you, Aunty," Jeanne said returning the smile. "What about Joseph?" she asked trying to make small talk."He is out with his wife," Jason said. "I guess being haughty runs in the family" he added and the whole table fell into laughter.Aletta could almost plead with Joshua to stop staring so intently at her with her eyes. His eyes were asking so many questions sh
Aletta and Joshua spent the next two hours outside talking. Aletta was at rest knowing that Jeanne would likely not look for her because it was nothing weird to work for two hours.None of them would have been able to pinpoint exactly what it was that they were talking about. They seemed to be able to put themselves out there as they spoke about everything and anything."It's getting late," Aletta said with a yawn."It's not getting late, it's already late" Joshua said showing her the time on his phone."Oh my god, we have spent two hours already?" Aletta gasped holding his forearms so tightly in a squeeze."Yes, we have" Joshua replied amused by her expression."We better get in so we can get some sleep" Aletta said with a yawn again."I guess you do need sleep, you have been yawning nonstop since" he commented and she became so self-conscious. "I wish we could spend a little more time out here" he added and she glared at him."What?" he asked his hands going up as if he was surrende
Joshua held his cheeks as he watched her run into the house. He smiled brightly. Oh well, he was asking for a hug but even got something better instead. He stood up and dusted his trousers before walking into the house.He climbed the stairs ever so slowly, he knew the week was about to become a long one. Joseph was very much like his father Jason and did ever in his power to have fun. Andrew and Joshua were always very exhausted whenever they had to spend time with him."Where were you?" Joshua heard a voice from behind him as he pushed the door to his room open. He turned back to see a bright smile on Joesph's face with Andrew and Anette beside him. "Outside working with my secretary" he replied."So why is that huge ass smile on your face and why didn't you work inside?" Joseph asked. "What smile?" Joshua asked trying his best to keep a straight face but it was impossible considering what he had gone through today."Is work fun these days?" Anette asked trying to get answers out
By the time they came back from the club it was already morning and the entire house was already at the table ready to have breakfast."Where did you all go?" Brian asked as they entered the house and passed by the table."To the club," Joseph said happily. "My dear friends took me out and spent a ton of money on me to make sure that I enjoy my last day as a bachelor," he said in a slur.it was obvious to anyone seeing them that he was the one who brought about that idea. He was so drunk that he was unable to stand on his feet."He asked you guys to go out with him didn't he?" Needa asked standing to meet them.Three of them gasped as both Andrew and Joshua tried their best to hold Joseph up. they had heard all about her, they had seen her in pictures but this was the first time they were meeting her in person."Hello I'm Needa," she said with a beaming smile. Anyone could tell from a mile away that this was one of the reasons that Joseph was getting married."He was hell-bent on havi
Aletta knocked on the door and waited for a response. She heard a shuffle through the room and footsteps approaching the door. She strengthened her skirt with one hand and then her hair. She took a deep breath.The door to the room clicked and then opened. She stepped inside and he closed the door. she walked more steps into the room when she felt a strong hand grip."Joshua!" she exclaimed. "What? Is anyone going to see us here?" he asked mocking her."What if someone walks in on us?" she whispered."I locked the door already " he whispered into her ears and it sent shivers down her spine. "You did?" she asked unable to hide the excitement in her voice. "I did" he whispered again."Come on, have your breakfast" she said struggling out of his hands."I am not hungry," he said and held her back. "What do you mean? You drank all night what do you mean you aren't hungry?" she asked him and he shrugged while still holding her tightly to himself. "Have breakfast" She shrugged and was
Joshua pulled away his mouth hovering over hers. She had been so immersed in the kiss that she did not know when her hands went up to his neck."I thought you said you won't do anything I don't want to do?" she asked him slowly her breath coming out heavily."I thought you did not want things like this?" he asked her back."I never said so," she said blinking as his eyes remained fixed on her."So you liked it?" he asked and she looked away. His hands went to her chin to bring her eyes back to him. "I want to look at you" he murmured and she tried her best to retain eye contact with him."I am sorry I did it without permission, I just could not help myself" he said using the tip of his fingers to trace her lips. "I feel more awake now," he said with a smile."Impossible" she muttered and a smile crossed his face again."Should we check again?" he asked and her eyes fell shut."No""Then why are your eyes closed?" he asked tracing her lips again. "Your mouth is saying one thing but you
Aletta felt her throat grow dry as she turned and tossed in bed. She felt an obstruction as she tried to move her body. Her mind was not quick to translate to her that she was still in the same bed as Joshua. Her eyes fluttered open as she saw him lying there beside her.She took a glance at his face trying to soak in the beauty of his face. She shifted a bit to get her phone so she could know the time. Her eyes widened as she noticed it was a few minutes after noon. She tried to free herself from his grip but it became tighter."Joshua" she murmured into his ears."What is it?" he asked in a sleepy voice."Let go of me. I better make it back to my room" she said again."But I can sleep since I am holding on to you like this" he said and she felt her tummy churn. "I barely sleep once the sun is high but it seemed like you worked magic" he added and she tried to stay still."It's been five hours now, I am sure everyone is wondering where we are" she whispered again."I told them we are
Aletta struggled to free herself from Joshua's grip and pulled herself out of it. She raised her head and peered into his face. She watched him and wanted to trace her hand across his well-defined features. She was tempted to drop a kiss on his lips but refrained herself from doing it."I have to go now or else we might be found out before we leave this place" she whispered into his ear. He did not stir or move as he was fast asleep. She smiled and let out a small giggle. She pushed herself off the bed and tiptoed to the door.She clicked the key open and pulled the door open. She tried her best to be as quiet as possible as she let herself out. By the time she got to the room she shared with Jeanne, she was fast asleep and she tried her best not to wake her up while she freshened up in the shower.She was out of the shower and already putting in clothes. They still had a few more hours before the party and she was going to work on some of her ideas. The same one she had been working o
