CHAPTER 3(THE INTRODUCTION)
Jane was still so excited about her new job that she invited Nina over.She already brought 2 glasses,poured some champagne into it and offered her friend a glass.She was so excited that even Nina was so lost.
"I have been sitting her for over 30 minutes and my dear friend has refused to tell what is making her so happy".Nina said .
"You won't believe it Nina.Your friend here..."she boasted while turning around for Nina to see her well.
"Is now the latest employee of the INFINITY company".she concluded while clapping her hands in excitement.
"Oh my God!"She stood up excitedly to hug Jane .
"I am so happy for you baby girl.How on Earth did you do it?".she asked enthusiastically.
"Well nothing serious,I just got asked a few questions and that's it.It wasn't hard at all"
"I am so happy for you and please get ready to spend on me"
"Not my money...you already have yours".They laughed over it and drank as well.
"So tell me, what's up with you and Ken?".Jane asked.
"Ken?.He is just there.No big deal"she said sarcastically.
"That's cold.Whats going on?."Jane asked concerned about her friend's cold response.
"I can't stop thinking about him?".
"Who?wait!what!...you mean you are still thinking about that beach guy?".Jane inquired surprisingly.
"Yes.And I can't seem to forget him.No matter how hard I try.And do you know what's worst?.He hasn't called yet".
Jane couldn't believe her ears,neither could she believe her friend. She dropped her glass of wine on the table and stood up.
"Are you insane Nina.Do you know what you are saying?"
"I do.I want to meet him again".
"Then what about Ken?".
"I don't know but all I know is that I must be with Henry.He is mine and must do all it takes to get him".She said with a look of seriousness on her face.
"Bitch you are crazy.Nina please don't do this."
"You know me so well Jane.I don't easily give up.I always get what I desire.Henry is all I think of.He is all I need and I must get him".
At this point,Jane felt speechless.All she could do is stare at her friend.She has never seen her best friend in this sort of state in her life.
At the infinity company,Jane is seated in her office carrying out her duties when she received a telephone call from her boss to meet him in his office.
She came into the office and met her boss attending to a client who is no other person but Henry.She greeted them and on sighting Henry she pretended not to have seen him.She already recognized him from their collision on the day of her interview.
Henry on the other hand recognized her too but as courtesy demands,he decided to keep his cool with hopes that he has the chance to speak to her much later.
"You sent for me sir"she said referring to her boss.
"Yes I want you to organize this document.This is an important business proposal from one of the reputable companies we have in the city"he said handing her the documents.
She collected the document and gave a nice glance at Henry who was able to catch her glance this time.She hurriedly turned her face away and left the office.
"Who is she?"He asked her boss.
"That's one of my employee.Her name is Jane Williams.She just resumed work yesterday.Why?"
"I think I like her David"he said smiling.
"Then go get her"he gingered him to make a move.
At Jane's office,she was already arranging the files in her office when Henry knocked and walked in.
"Hi!"He greeted
"Hi"she responded to the greeting.
She seemed warm and welcoming to him so Henry didn't find much difficulty in speaking to her.
"I remember you from last week.We collided into each other remember?"he continued
"Oh yeah.I am really sorry about that day.I was in a rush,trying to make it to the interview that I was already late for".
"Seems you got the job congratulations".
"Thanks"
"My name is Henry,a business man and also a friend to your boss"he said bringing his hand for a handshake.
"I am Jane.I work here"she reciprocated the handshake .
"What will you be doing after work today?"
"Home ofcourse"
"I would like to drop you home after work today"he offered.
"You don't have to"she said somewhat surprised at the gesture.
"Please I insist.It would be a pleasure."
She couldn't resist his charms that she didn't know when she smiled at him thereby accepting his offer.
"Okay".She agreed.
"Thank you.I will be here by 4pm to pick you up".
"Alright then".
"Have a nice day Jane".
"You too"
He then left her office leaving Jane who was smiling at herself sheepishly.
It was already 4pm and Henry had fulfilled his promise of coming to pick her and drop her home.Jane hopped into his car and he drove her to her home.In the car,they were stealing glances at each other.They didn't know what it was they were doing but they sure liked it.Jane smiled all the way through the journey.
On getting to the front of her compound,he stopped the car and Jane hopped out of the car.
"Thank you"she said.
"I'll call you before you sleep tonight.Try and rest your head.I will talk to you later".He said winking.
"Okay.Bye".She said while she went into her house excitedly.
Henry watched her leave as it gave him so much pleasure watching the woman he admired going into her house.
When she got inside her house,she peeped out of the window to check if he had driven out but luckily for her,that was when he was driving out.She felt joyous.It was as if she win a lottery.She picked up her phone to call her friend Nina but on a second thought she dropped it back and went to freshen up.
At 8pm,Henry called her.
"Hello beautiful"with a deep sexy voice which made her feel so happy.
"Hi".
"I called as I promised".
"I can see that you are a man of your words".she complimented.
He went further to ask her what she was doing and what she was going to do before going to bed.She responded friendly.The call took up to 2 hours before they decided to bid themselves goodnight.
"So dinner tomorrow?"he asked.
"Sure".
"Okay great... tomorrow then"
"Yeah".
"Good night beautiful"
"Good night Henry".She concluded after which she allowed him to cut the call.
She felt a sudden peace that she hasn't felt in awhile.Excited that she made the best call of the moment,she retired to bed.
CHAPTER 2(CHEATED UPON) At the family home of Henry, he doesn't actually live with his family as he was a man that has already paved way for himself.He actually came to be with his dad for a little while.The house which was magnificent in nature,had a basketball court,a gym,and a very big courtyard.His Father Honourable Wilberforce,a divorcee in his early sixties who happened to be a very rich man that deals with petroleum and many other things to his credit is seated with his scotch drink by his side.He has always been a fan of the drink. One could tell by the look on his face that he wasn't in a good mood at all.He can't seem to get over the scene of his wife Gladys cheating on him with one of his business associates. Few years back, he woke up before his wife Gladys,took his bath,brushed his teeth and few minutes later,he was already wearing a suit.He had a flight to catch that ea
CHAPTER 1 (HOW IT STARTED) Nina has always been the type that envies her friend Jane.What is the bone of contention?.Her best friend's man.How did it all start? It was a sunny day at the beach,the sun not so hot was serving its purpose on the skin of people that had come to relax on the beach.Girls in bikinis running around,some people playing at the ocean tide,some lovers acting all romantic and showing affection,kids building sand houses. "Awwnn...look at that....so sexy"says Nina whose attention is solely fixed on lovers showing affection and acting romantic toward each other. "Look at what?"Says Jane who was trying to figure out what it was that was making her friend trip. "The lovers ofcourse...just look at the romantic scene"she says blushing "Stop looking at them like that before they see you which will in turn make them uncomfortable". "I don't care"says Nina,a beau
"What do you mean Nina?"shouted Jane . She had received a call from Ken her ex boyfriend that Nina had broken up with him. On hearing everything he said over the phone,she immediately made straight to Nina's house to confront her. "What do you mean by what do I mean?.You of all people know how much I love Henry." "Who is this Henry guy?.The guy you met at the beach. Now tell me,did your Henry call you after exchanging contact with him?.Did he?''.Jane enraged with fury asked her. "He did not but I did and guess what?.It turned out fine. Finer than I expected. Aren't you supposed to be happy for me Jane?" "Happy over what?.It's not like you and the Henry guy are dating anyway .You just met this guy and you are taking him seriously in this manner. Babe you are insane I swear to God". "Call it whatever you wanna call it. I have made my choice".she was alre
The sound of the birds chirping at the trees blessed the atmosphere,the distant happy screams and laughter of kids playing and the sun smiling at every creature within it's reach. It was a Saturday,Henry had taken Jane to the park for sight seeing. They walked together for awhile. While Jane was enjoying the view and having the fun of her life,Henry was staring at her.He had something he wanted to say to her but he felt the words he was about to say weren't constructed well enough for her to hear. Jane noticed his absence in the conversations that she brought up countless times then she paused and looked at him. He was indeed not present. She decided to converse with him. "I noticed you have been quiet since we got here"she said. "It's really nothing. I brought you out here to have fun". "And I am not. So how about that?. "I am sorry"he said with his face downwards. She knew that something wasn't right and wanted to find
It was night already and Henry thought for it to be a perfect opportunity to get Jane to know his house. " It's time for you to know my house"Henry said. " Really?"she was excited to hear that from him. " Yeah...you are my woman now and it's only right for you to know where I stay". " Okay so is it your family house or your own house?" She asked " Not my family house. My house. I will take you there whenever you want to. Or do you wanna go there now?" " No not yet. Let's go to your house" she smiled. " You are always beautiful. Your smile is everything". She could only smile more. Few minutes later,they got to his house. Henry's house was a magnificent building.It was a house made of glass,the corners were painted in white. The floors were made with marble It had a pool,and a small field. It was a beautiful house for a bachelor. Jane on seeing the house couldn'
It was a very long night for Jane and Henry. They didn't know when it was dawn. It was few minutes past 9 in the morning and that was when Henry got up. He looked at the beauty laying down beside him. She was still so beautiful even though she was fast asleep. He covered her with the duvet because they slept naked all night. He then kissed her on the forehead before he put on his short and went downstairs to prepare some food.Few minutes later,he was able to prepare bread and tea for her as breakfast. He brought the tray containing butter,omelet,bread and tea to her and placed it by the bed side before he woke her up."Sleeping beauty...it's time for you to wake up"She woke up and smiled on seeing his face."Good morning" she greeted."Morning my angel. Hope you slept well?""Yeah I did. How about you?"she asked."I have never slept well in a long while until last night" he replied.Sh
"It's a lie. Tell me that all you have said here right now is a joke"Nina inquired excitedly."It's not a lie. We did it.""What must have made you Jane Williams the almighty virgin of the planet give your stuff away like that. He must have been really worth it.""Yeah...I have never felt this way before Nina. I know it seems like everything happened so fast but my heart accepts the way it's going gradually. I love him. Funny enough,he has the same name as your beach boy crush who I have never met before"Jane laughed."Speaking of which...when are you gonna introduce me to your new boyfriend?"asked Nina inquisitively."Tomorrow night. I already told him about you and he is anticipating to meet you as well. It's gonna be a dinner night for 3""I really can't wait to meet him. and I am so happy for you Jane. It is such a relief to see you in love and happy"."Thanks"she smiled.The following day, Nina
CHAPTER 12 ( THE MISUNDERSTANDING 1)An angry and enraged looking Nina sat on her couch trying to assimilate the scenario she experienced earlier. She couldn't believe what she saw nor what her heart was telling her."How could this be?. How is this possible?. Jane my best friend betrayed me and took my man from behind me. And even had the guts to invite me for an introduction. How could she?"she yelled on top of her voice,throwing away the pillows sitting besides her on the couch."I will make her pay for this. I will so make her pay for this"she said to her herself conclusively.Confused Jane and Henry were seated in the home of Henry conversing on what happened earlier at the restaurant."Do you have any idea what the problem was or should I say is?. Because I am confused."Henry asked,trying to figure out what the problem was."She looked like she knew you. Do you know her?.""Ofcourse I know her. I met he
