Should We Try?

All Juma could see was how Stephany was happy some hours ago sharing a plate with Jonathan Astridge. Yet now, she was panicked that he, her boyfriend he supposed, can't bring his face closer to her face in the office?

He felt his heart burn with anger. But it wasn’t to her, but to that video. Didn’t she know there was a surveillance recording that time when he shared a plate with her?

“Do not eat with other men,” he growled in a deep voice that was barely audible.

‘Hmm!” Stephany didn’t get to hear him clearly.

“I said. From today onwards, you have lunch in my office. No matter how late, whether I am in or out!” He said.

Stephany was speechless. What was wrong with him? What was he mad about?

She could see he was mad but not at her. Then she understood the meaning behind his words.

“Phpft! Ha! Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!”

When Stephany got to get the meaning behind his words. She failed to contain her laugh and like she had not laughed the entire day, she laughed hysterically. She thr

    Oh My God!Stephany had never seen him be like this. She felt sorry for him and as if the pity she felt took over, she felt her head clear and only worry for him came in her head. As he stared down to her eyes and into his, she was able to see that he was losing control of his own body.“Should we try?” He asked.Stephany did not know he would be able to talk now. She looked at Juma’s burning eyes and asked him softly, “Try what?”She couldn’t tell what was in his mind, she wasn’t moving as he had said and she didn’t know what he was thinking of either.“You have to promise me first that you will be willing to help,” Juma said and he suddenly moved his hand and with an open palm he captured her round behind bringing their waist sticking together.Stephany didn’t mind but she felt shy when she felt his large palms covering her behind tightly pressing on them. They were both wearing long pants and his beast was almost tearing his pants and she felt its hotness

    Love, Can I Kiss You?‘Touch it and have it fill my hand! That…’ Stephany’s mind has never screamed to the point of it not knowing what to say.Was this the first experience she was going to get in being with a lover? Will she ever use that hand especially when Juma had slipped her right hand in there? No one could imagine what Stephany was going through now, she felt like it would be harder for her to even stare at her hands anymore.She moved her hand and held his beast. Like she was touching the body of a snake, she held it with fright and her entire arms were trembling. The more it trembled and the more she felt the size of the still growing beast and its skin on her palm, the more she felt so embarrassed that she withdrew her hand abruptly earning a low grunt from Juma’s throat.“Are you fine?” She asked in a panicked voice and started to explain herself in the next, “It…it’s just that..” but, even after being brave enough to withdraw her hands, she failed to ma

    I Am Dirty Now!East Heaven Mall.Same as every morning, the mall was busy with the Kolex.co employees taking the lifts to the company buildings sitting on the mall as its floor. There were many lifts in the building enough for the many employees that they never flooded the entrance giving the mall too a peaceful morning.There was no meeting today and the employees of each department were free as they had been working round the clock for the past three weeks and it seemed like this Friday was for them to be free.Yet, it still looked empty to the employees as discussions rang between two or three groups. It was almost eleven o’clock in the morning and the everyday stars of Kolex.co were nowhere to be seen.Jeffa and Susan were busy in their office when there was a knock on their door. From their respective offices, they could open the door. So, after confirming with each other, Jeffa opened the door.

    Interrupted or Saved!Juma had locked Stella’s hands with his and Stella felt much more disgusted when he did that. She was furious but her arms were too weary to get themselves off his grip.“I just told you that I am dirty! You could have waited for me to wash my hands!” Stephany was furious when she said that.The degree that she was disgusted on her hands, especially her palms, was on an entire level that she couldn’t understand why he had to touch them.“Look at me!” Juma ordered. He was only teasing her and he never thought it would rile her to this point. Stella was also avoiding his eyes even though he could see that she was absolutely furious.“I got them dirty,” he started in a soft low tone, “So, I don’t see why you feel bad when I touch what I contaminated by my dirty release!” He said and unlocked their hands.He could see how she was so riled up. What he couldn’t understand was why she was so furious he touched her hands. Did she feel that disgu

    I Have Tried!Stephany was jolted back by the phone’s ringtone and opened her eyes. Taking the opportunity of Juma’s daze to the ringing phone and their patted lips, she slipped from under him.“I am going to shower” she ran as fast as her legs could carry her into the bathroom.When she finally closed the bathroom door, she heaved a sigh of relief breathing exaggeratedly with her back against the door.“Phew! That would have ended up in another mess!” She mumbled to herself.But she hadn’t cooled down when she heard Juma’s voice from the other side of the door, “Why are you running away when your phone is calling?”His tone was filled with teasing and amusement; he barely hid them in his question.What? Was it her phone that was ringing? She didn’t even listen to the ringtone. All she wanted was to escape as far away as possible.“Who is calling me?” Stephany asked from the bathroom not opening the door.“Open up and take the phone,” Juma

    It Was Now Or Never.“If you weren’t sick, then how can you lose your memory during a comatose stage? Did the scriptwriter and the original writer of the Marvel Comic, Captain America, not do their best in research towards comatose?” Stephany asked.Her question at least softened his creases and Juma chuckled, “You really have the time to make a funny joke now?” He asked.But, Stephany raised her brows and said seriously, “It’s no joke! Didn’t Steve Rodgers wake up after, was it fifty years or over? And he was able to remember that he had promised his girlfriend a date!”Juma turned to look at her for a second and then turned his focus back to the road. He failed to form words to retort to her choice of reference. Did she have to use a science fiction movie and comic to be precise?“Maybe there is something that the doctors did to you during your comatose status. Or can someone develop some kind of illness during that stage?” Stephany racked her brain and s

    Overreacting Mother!"Mom!""Mother!""Grandma!"Three voices of Flavian, her husband, Jack Tse and her five year old daughter, Maya Clara Tse greeted the woman at the door as soon as the door was opened.The woman was wearing a pink suit handmade by the royal tailor and she matched a modern Dutchess with the hat that matched her pink suit.She was almost in her late fifties yet she still had a smooth face with no sign of wrinkles and she had light makeup.This woman was Flavian's mother, Mrs. Cherono Adams Namu. The mother of Juma and the eldest daughter, Camarah Candice Namu.She was the matriarch of the Namu family and grandmother to four grandchildren. She smiled when Flavian's family greeted her but her smile did not reach her eyes."And am glad to see you all," Mrs. Cherono Namu greeted her daughter back, hugging her, her husband and the young girl.After a few pleasantries with Maya, three other children came from the living room to the door."Cousin Maya!"

She smiled in the next second to mask her feelings. She then stood up from the couch she was seated on and spoke,“Prepare my bath, my ride, clothes and finally get me some gifts for my mother in law!” She gave out the orders as her figure once again disappeared in the same direction she came from.Once she emerged, Linah was dazzling in a beautiful ruby donned diva dress and she had her makeup o

    Aunty, You Should Not Say Betting!The car cruised back to Juma's villa and he drove directly to the underground parking garage that belonged to the villa.Stephany was sleeping and he saw the only best option was to use the lift rather than waking her up or using the stairs.Soon as the front lights shut, Juma came out of the car and was in time to see Candy who was walking down the stairs to the garage from the main door."Miss Candy! I didn't know you would be waiting?" He spoke as soon as she was a few steps to him.Juma was walking around the car to get Stephany from the car and take her into the house. Candy nodded and didn't answer as her gaze caught the sight of the sleeping Stephany."What is wrong with her?" She asked and her soft facial features turned hard in the next second and she sounded worried.Candy quickened her steps and headed to the car. Juma didn't care why she didn't greet him and understood her worries."She is fine, she is only tired from all the happenings o

    What Might Be Behind Juma's Amnesia.Stephany knew that in no time, she would be forced to reveal herself to him and she saw no reason to deny being Stephany Lee in front of an elderly person like the school guard.She pressed Juma's hands in a meaningful way so as to prevent him from being too shocked and sent him a message that she will clear all that later.The guard was happy and then he took their tangled hands on his own and started chanting incoherent words and blowing air into their hands.The two were confused but Stephany smiled later. She realized the man was giving them his blessings and casting away evil that they might meet in their road to the future in the traditional way.When the old man was done, he left their hands and said, "I never knew you children would one day meet after what had happened. May The God be your guide,""Thank you!" Stephany said as Juma was finding too much that his mind could not register at all.It seems like Stel

    Yes. I Am Miss Lee!“Would you tell me what is happening?” Stephany asked with worry, “You look like you have been in a forbidden land!” She added.She now started to have some spooky answers to what was going on. Definitely, she remembered that Juma was fine when they came and even when they first left the car. But, something happened the next second they stepped out of the main road to the path that leads to the gate.Juma stepped away again while Stella was still contemplating, not answering her question and he felt another twang and this time, he jumped to the other side of the white mark. He now felt like the question Stella had shot him made some sense. He did look like someone venturing a forbidden ground.The question that his mind couldn’t get to answer was; What kind of sorcery was it? Why were very strange things happening to him? And why him?Of course, even though Juma had these questions and he had discovered he can’t venture close to the school’s gate, he didn’t match
