Abby

I could notice how bright this young man's attraction towards me was. He was a great friend to me but I was trying my best not to make it seem that I was just out of reach. I blamed myself and my unnatural attraction to an old man who would never be mine. Hell, he even had himself his own girlfriend and here I was fawning over him despite his harsh treatment towards me.

I smiled at him because he was still such a great friend to me. He did actually care about me.

"I did come. I noticed you were away." I said to him,

"Oh, I mean, did you get my little gift?" He asked me, expectantly.

Oh, I remember. I felt really bad that I was about to lie to him about the coffee drink.

"Yes. Very lovely. I enjoyed the coffee. It was really nice. Thank you, Jack." I said to him,

"You're welcome. You know, I did not actually know what flavour to get you and I decided that I should get you that one." He said to me,

Now, I didn't even know one bit about the kind of coffee he had given to me. Thank G

    Lucas I needed the air. Staying in here with her was really suffocating and I was not even referring to the noise. Hell, I could sit down all day and watch her make her call without feeling a single tinge of anger. She was really beautiful and her voice was soothing.I wanted to even try to speak to the clients on the list but as expected, I flopped. Abigail had this all figured out and I would be a big idiot if I tried to do it again. I managed to get through one phone call and that was it. I knew I had done my best and handed her the phone.Alright, Abigail. Go ahead and laugh. I had seen her gleaming as she probably was wondering if it would be nice if she said it to my face. But she retained it inside and took the next call smoothly. That was all I needed to leave. I went out and when I came into the staff quarters, I noticed how they were looking at me. Good thing I stepped out before they started to think that there was something between Abigail and I. I started strolling aroun

    Lucas She did not even let me finish. Not like I was going to say anything far from what she imagined because I wanted to let her know how compromising their position had been. Anyone who would come inside at the time would definitely begin to think there was something deeper between them both. I did not want that. I could not imagine Abigail being attached to another man as all I desired was that she be mine. Even though that was beginning to seem like wishful thinking.She could have stayed back where she was. Why on earth did Gavin have to bring her back to torment me? I would not blame my friend. He probably had not the tiniest hint of ideas that I, his best friend, was in love with his daughter. He would no sooner demand my head than approve it. However, I was going to remain grateful to Gavin for one thing. The fact that he had allowed her to even come close to me was something I will not trade for anything else. I was glad I had her company.She was waiting for my apology. Th

    Abigail He was playing with my emotions. He did not need to say it but I could tell very well what he was doing.However, I decided that I had enough of Lucas stirring the wheel and cut him off at the but. I knew it would not go down well if I had let him continue because it would all lead straight to Jack again. Would he not try and understand that there was absolutely nothing between Jack and I short of the fact that he was my colleague. The only one that cared deeply about me even.Eventually, he succumbed and I was impressed at the straightforwardness of his apology. One would even mistake him for the gentleman he was portraying. Well, trust Lucas to ruin everything and this time he made the claim that he did not antagonize his staff.Wait, his staff? What was I? Because from the very first day I had come to his office, it had always been me on the receiving end of his antagonistic behaviour. Everyone knew he hated me and now, he wanted to play saint? Nor at all.I decided that I

    Lucas I finished work and decided to go straight to the restaurant reservation. By this time, every staff member including Abigail was already gone from the office and I made my way to my car. I got inside as I started driving to the place.As she has said, it was a private reservation in a room away from the rest. I informed the receptionist and she called someone to lead me inside the VIP areas. This was a really big restaurant.The moment I entered where our reservation was, I noticed that Lucinda was already there. She smiled as she saw me and I first observed my area.There was this redness to the room from the lights to the seat that made me feel a lump in my throat. What was this sly she-cat playing at this time? She herself wore a rather low cut dress that exposed most of her cleavage that had me wondering if her plot was to get laid.There was a bottle of wine on the table and table water. Along with a ring up button."See, private." She said to me,I nodded as I went to tak

    AbbyI had declined the outing after giving hopes that I might oblige when it struck me that just earlier, there had been some attitudinal display from the other ladies at the company. A whole lot of them had behaved as though I was their enemy which was actually something I was not trying to deny. I had to give Sarah enough time to spread the rumours too about what I wanted them to hear. This had everything to do with the fact that they would not raise a scandal. I felt for Jack though. He looked really sad but he had been a perfect gentleman and let me do my thing with the urging that I would certainly join them next time to which I nodded."Oh, Abigail, we would miss you at the table." Sarah cooed.I smiled."You mean that you would miss me, right? The others don't like me." I said to her,"That's true. I will miss you but tomorrow, I will tell you all about it." She said,Yes, I believed that she would but this friendship which she was trying to force me into was just not doing i

    Lucas The instant she came to hug me, she kissed me on the mouth and I pushed her away."What was that for?" I demanded angrily.She rushed over to me and tried to clean whatever imaginary lipstick was there because I could not see."I'm really sorry, Lucas. I actually tripped and that's what happened. I would never do something to you which you do not permit." She responded.I was observing her as she tried to wipe me clean over and then I stopped her. She claimed that she would never do anything that I did not approve of like I had suddenly gotten amnesia and forgotten the kind of person she was. Lucinda was really doing her best to get on my nerves and I was beginning to feel anger at her. I wanted her away from me and I knew I should have discharged her right then but the thought of using her to keep my emotions towards my best friend's daughter was still staring at me. She would prove a very good form of distraction towards that goal and I decided to let it go."I'll be going no

    AbbyI had been on the call for a long time with Taylor as I needed help with my mood. She really was a great friend and if anything, I was so glad she was the one talking to me. We kept on talking until she started feeling sleepy and I needed a cold shower so I could sleep heavily in anticipation of what other heartache that damned Lucas would bring my way.I got ready and packed up my things as I went to the bedroom and undressed. In a short time, I was under the shower as I let the cold water splash on my body. I felt a lot better now but then, I had to ruin everything by beginning to wonder what it would feel like if it was me and that asshole under the shower at this time. Perhaps even, it would be really fun and enjoyable but I did not really want to think about it that way. I just wanted to get rid of every feeling that I had for Lucas and focus on my life perhaps. Who knows what I would find, happiness and new friends? I could even mingle with others and not be scared that he

    Abby I froze instantly as I tightened my eyes.. What on earth was he doing here? He shook be sleeping or something, bright? Or wait, they had their outing too."It is you, Abigail!" This was Sarah calling me and she sounded drunk.Slowly, I wheeled around to find myself face to face with Jack and a not so sober Sarah. Somebody tell me something I was missing right this instant!!! Did they start a drunken night celebration and no one informed me? Even Jack himself had signs of tiredness and drinking but he was sober."Hey, guys." I greeted."Fancy running into you here. You're getting hangover drugs?" He asked me.There was this look in his eyes that I really did not want to think about because I did not want to assume things with him. He was just my really nice colleague and that was all there was."Ah, yes. Fancy running into you here too." I responded."Someone drunk?" He asked me."Yes but definitely not me. My friend. She went and partied. Had so much to drink. I met her in my ho

    LucasI was glad that finally I had found myself a woman that stood on the same page as I did and she was just perfect. That night was already solemn enough for us two and I was not going to try and make love to her. We already had a lot of talk about Gavin and I knew that going for her sexually would make it seem like I only craved that. We went to sleep in each other's arms and then I woke up the next morning early enough to know that I would have to go start getting ready for work.I had gotten home in time and my cleaning lady was already there when I started preparing. I finished up and I drove myself to work and it was then that I remembered that I had missed a call last night. I decided that I would check on it in the office and call the person involved. I was just getting to the office when I noticed some people huddled around and this was really strangely familiar. There was a bus parked down the street and I drove inside. The moment I stepped down, there were cameras clickin

    Lucas Right here, in this very moment, was where I wanted to be. I was really excited that I had finally made it here and so far, there was actually no drama between us. Abigail did not even ask about the whole Lucinda drama which made me feel really great about what was happening between us. I watched as she straddled me and then asked her if she was not going to let me get inside her but she smiled and I knew she had an ace up her sleeves. I asked her about what she was planning to do and she asked me if I thought she was going to do something and I shook my head. This girl truly had me wrapped up around her fingers and I was clearly letting her do that without any questions of the sorts. I watched her movements and I knew that she was trying her hardest to seduce me. That was when my phone started ringing and I was wondering who it was. My first thought was that Lucinda was calling me again and I chose to ignore it as I focused on Abigail's pretty face. She asked me why I was no

    Abby"Wow, finally you're offering free rides, Jack. I have always wondered what it would be like in that super nice care of yours." Someone said and I turned to find the supervisor approaching. I swear I would hug this woman desperately if I could at the moment.She was already coming over and from the look on Jack's face, he was not cool with it at all. He smiled and then started to ask which way she was going when the woman told him that she lived around where I did. I was worried immediately as I started wondering if this was true? I mean, if she knew where I lived, that could mean that she has seen Lucas. Now, I would really need to figure that out but Jack was speaking again. He said of course and came to open the front door. Anyone could tell from how he looked at me that he had done that for me but she went on to thank him as she got inside the car. Jack hid his anger and then handed me my bag as he came to open the back seat for me with great reluctance. The moment I got in,

    AbbyHaving Lucas stand up for me was a whole different level that I had not been prepared for. I had not been expecting it at all. When he had rescued me from Lucinda, I had been anticipating that he would probably be compassionate towards her and I would much later ask him what was so complicated about his relationship with her but alas, that was not the case as he had scolded her as she deserved. I would have thought that would be enough until we went back inside and he called everyone to attention and started asking questions. The moment everyone had turned their gazes on Sarah, I realised that I was not amazed. But then, Donna had called her out when she tried to sell her story and I instantly knew why she had done that. Apparently, Sarah had been expecting that a scent would stem up between Lucinda and I but then she was disappointed. If everything had gone as planned, she would have had something to come to play sympathy with and then at the same time, castigate me before all

    LucasThe moment we entered, Abigail started playing her part really well when she thanked me for stepping up for her. I told her it was all on her supervisor who had come to inform me in due time. She turned respectfully to the woman and started thanking her. At least, we knew how to play coverups with them all. I then decided to let her supervisor know that I would be taking Abigail off her hands fully as I would be moving her to my office. She would learn alongside my assistant. The woman did not seem too happy and asked me right there if I was trying to punish Abigail for going out earlier as she had been the one who sent her when she thought that Abigail had been off work for sometime now. I smiled and then shook my head as I reassured her that this was not the case. I actually believed that regardless of everything, Abigail did possess potential."I told you so. I'm actually really glad you're considering her." She said to me,"Well, that's if Miss Abigail here would put in her

    Lucas I watched Lucinda leave and I felt a huge sense of relief that she was gone. All I could think of right now was Abigail and I was more or less excited that it was all done. I patted my pocket where I had her panties in and smiled to myself with so much relief boldly spelt out on my face. Eventually, I reclined back on my seat as I started thinking about how I would be going about the rest of the day. I would probably stop by a florist and get her flowers. I mean, every woman loves flowers, right? Then probably add a pack of chocolates and a very alcoholic wine to get us really into that mood. Although the both of us were together alone, I knew that we did not need wine for anything. I was just being cocky and also smart at the moment. I was already getting deep into my thoughts when someone walked over and knocked. I screamed at my assistant that I had asked him to resolve whatever would be coming to me when the supervisor called out to me. I was definitely going to be pisse

    AbbyThere was something else she wanted to know and she needed to see me. I started rubbing my eyes with my hands so it would give off enough red before I stood up and flushed the toilet. I walked out and she saw me, there was so much pity in her eyes. She told me she had not been expecting that I would cry that much and asked me to wash my face while she waited. I was still doing so when she went off to her next question. This was about Lucinda and I totally disliked it. I was already hating the lady and I did not need more reminders on why I did that. I asked her what she wanted to know about the lady and she started off with the story of how I had been in the office when she entered."Surely, she must have reacted with jealousy to you. I mean, did she say anything at all to you?" She asked me."Actually, no. When she arrived, I was already out with Mr Lucas' assistant. He had me filling out something and I think it's related to the whole arrangement for tomorrow." I said to her an

    Abby I smiled at Lucas because I was speechless. The way this man carried himself and the air around him which spoke nothing short of confidence was really something I could not begin to fathom. I tried to plead my cause and he went on to make this even more sexier and harder on me when he threatened to ask for my bra too. That would actually be disastrous especially owing to the fact that my nipples were quite perky and I was already feeling horny. I had to make the decision quickly and I handed him my panties. He moved it up to sniff it and I was about to jump on this man. Eventually, I had to leave his office after securing myself a bet that he too would not seek for other means to relieve himself. I had actually seen how his male member had suddenly become prominent through his pants and I was already feeling like this was a win-win situation. I walked out and the moment I opened the door, I felt the vulnerability of my situation right now. I was naked underneath and that was no

    LucindaThis was all intentional to take my time and then I arrived. I put up my act again and I told them that he was not the one. Lucas at this point was pissed off at me and I could tell. I started trying to trade the pity story that I was actually referring to my apartment as my ex was always coming there to harrass me. I was not sure what I was hoping for but it definitely did not do me any good when he had suddenly driven away. I was ashamed and ashamed. The officers then approached me and demanded to know what stunt I had played as they were well aware that I had said that I was being followed and even described the car. I chuckled and asked them if I had really said that and then told them that I had a few drinks and must have said something in that regard. However, that was my worst move yet as I had unknowingly convicted myself as a drunk driver and I was taken away. One of the officers drove my car as they deemed it fit that a drunk driver should not be let loose on the ro
