She pushed him into the room and planted a hot kiss on his lips. He wrapped his arms on her waist and responded to the kiss immediately."I've missed you so much" she said amidst pants as she broke from the kissWithout a word, he lifted her from the floor and took her to the bed.The next morning, he woke up and found her on his side with the duvet covering their bodies. He sighed as he recalled the steamy night they both had. She rolled to his body and placed her hand across his chest."It's morning already and you should be getting ready for lectures" he said and she chuckled silently."I want to stay here all day," she said as she opened her eyes and wrapped her hair in a bunHe smiled and rubbed his palm on his face."I've missed you so much, Eden," she said as she planted a quick kiss on his lips"How about your boyfriend or should I say, boyfriends?" He asked and she slapped his chest slightly."What have you been hearing about me?" She asked with a slight frown"Nothing," he sa
He stood in front of the coffee shop watching the few people moving to and fro in front of the entrance door. It was dark and the whole place was lit up with streetlights and different lights from the few shops and tall buildings around."Eden, over here" he heard a voice behind him.He turned and a smile appeared on his face as he saw Julius standing behind him, dressed in a black long jacket. "I'm sorry for taking so long, there was much work at the office today" he said as Eden walked towards him"I haven't waited for so long," Eden said and they both smiled"Can we sit in the car please?" Julius asked and he nodded.They walked to his car which was parked at the roadside and they both entered the car. He brought out a cup of chocolate raspberry parfait and handed one to him."I don't have time to cook, so I settle with junks sometimes before going home," he said and Eden laughed."Maybe it's time you get a woman" he said with a smile as he watched him eating a burger"Seriously, b
She looked at the door which was creaking and she smiled as she saw Lucia walking into the room, dressed in blue jeans trousers and black blouse."Babe," she called with excitement as she walked to the bed and dropped the white shopping bag she was holding."I've missed you so much," Jessica cried as they both hugged."Gosh, you're growing fat in your room. This isn't good for you," Lucia said as she looked at Jessica's cheeks which were turning robust."Seriously" she said with a smile as she raised her arms up."I got you chocolates and your cococrunch" she said as she brought out the items from the bag."Oh thanks," Jessica said with excitement as she tore the packet of cococrunch."Reminds you of your boyfriend right?" Lucia asked as she laid on the bed"Yes, I've missed him so much. Please, I need to call him right away. Can I use your phone?" She asked at once"Your dad had me drop my phone with him before coming into the room. Those were the rules he gave me in seeing you" Lucia
PRESENT"You can keep it if you want," he said as he removed the wristwatch"But you said it was a gift, and you shouldn't give out what someone else gifted you" she said"No, it will bring you back to me just like he said" he said and they both laughed"And you believed that?" She asked and he smiled"You're a good man Eden," she said as she looked into his eyes.He smiled and stood up as he gave her the wristwatch."I will need to start going now" he said"Why? So soon?" She asked as she stood up too"Yeah, you want your father to come get me?" He asked"No, but.. Eden, I want you to stay" she cried and he sighed and walked back to her.He wrapped her in his arms and she held him tightly."I love you," she whispered and he kept silent. He recalled how Rosa had whispered those words over to him before her death. He squeezed her body in his arms and they both stayed that way for a moment.He looked into her eyes and removed the strand of hair from her face. She smiled as he planted a s
The smell of barbecues and roasted beef filled the air as laughter and slow music was heard coming out from the surrounding.It was a beautiful afternoon at the lodge. At the back of the lodge out there in the field, a large table covered with white cloth could be seen, filled with fruits, desserts, and all sorts of beverages.Eden and Julius could be seen at the barbecues stand, roasting barbecues while discussing and laughing over a few things.“Do you think she will come?” Julius asked anxiously“Trust me, she will” he assured“What are the boys up to this time around?” Tracy and Jessica asked as they walked out through the backdoor,holding food bowls in their hands.“Up to something” Julius said and the girls laughed“Where is Jonathan?” Eden asked Tracy who was walking over to the table“I guess he is having a hard time using the stereo” she said“That stereo been out of use for a long time now. I will go help him out when i’m done” he saidAs they were still speaking, they heard
They ate, chatted and laughed happily at the table."Come on, let's go and swim. It's hot down here" Julius said as he stood up from the table."Yeah, I need to cool off," Eden added as he took off his dress immediately.He ran after Julius who was heading to the pool at the front yard and their laughter could be heard as they splashed into the water."Paulo, come on, let's go over to the pool" Jonathan said to Paulo who stood up excitedly."I've never seen Eden so happy all his life," Tracy said as soon as the boys left"Eden deserves to be happy" Juliet said as she stood up from the table."Thank you Jessica, for bringing light into his life" Tracy said to Jessica who was clearing the table.She smiled and pushed her hair backwards."I just hope he will one day change from the path he is threading" she said"Eden would change. It's just a matter of time. We will take things slowly" Juliet said as she grabbed an apple."Yes. With the presence of you and Julius, I believe he will have
As he opened the door, they both ran inside with their bodies drenched in the rain. He shut the door immediately and exhaled."Gosh, we never saw that coming" she said as she walked into the living room."I thought we would make it before the rain starts," he said as he switched on the bright lights.He took off his wet shirt as he walked to meet her. She looked away from him and looked around the small but neatly arranged living room.She picked up a Bible which was on the table and she took a glance at his face."Eden told us you were a religious boy and he's actually right" she said as she dropped the Bible. He smiled and walked over to meet her."This book, is the only book that can solve the answers to life's big questions" he said as he picked up the Bible again"Whatever" she said as she looked around the house. "So, where do I start from?" She asked"The kitchen" he said at once.She eyed him and he laughed."We'll begin from here" he said as he placed his hand on her shoulder
She opened her eyes slowly and all she could feel was an acrid pain on her head and thighs. She hadn’t felt this way before, she thought as she looked at the other side of the bed. Her eyes fell on the windows and she could see from the outside view that it was morning already. Her heart skipped as she recalled how she had slept over at the lodge. Everything that happened last night became clear in her head and she placed a palm on her forehead immediately.She looked around the room but there was no sign of him. She looked underneath the duvet covering her body and she sighed heavily as she found herself unclad. Her lips were quite swollen and her whole body ached badly.Just then, she saw him walking into the room, wearing only black shorts over his bare chest.“Hey,” he called in a deep voice as he walked over to the bed.Her heart skipped and she couldn’t bring her face to look at him. She felt shy, guilty and unsure of everything at the moment.He kept silent as he looked at her f
