“Who is it this time” she wondered as she picked up her phone but then her triggered disdain slowly depreciated as she looked at the caller ID
“Mummy” with a purple heart, black heart and a heart with smaller floating hearts emoji looked right back at herShe took a deep breath before picking up the phone
“Hey mum, how’re you?” Gabi said “Finally, you picked up your phone. Why haven’t you been picking my calls? I called you last night and it rang for hours but you didn’t answer me?” A female voice much in her 50’s answered very unhappy“I’m sorry mum, I swear. I was working over time and my phone was not beside me. I wanted to call you back but then I forgot, sorry” Gabi apologized but deep inside she snorted, it’s not like her phone rang for an hour, mum’s just like to exaggerate so they make us feel awful. She ju
*Gabi showed up at work as usual and was greeted by her workers. She maneuvered her way to her office just to come to a halt in front of her secretary.* “What is it this time…” She sighed as she stood still and observed her friend but she soon got tired and called her attention “Cassie? Cassie? Cassie!” “Yes Boss!” She sputtered as she came back to reality “What’s up with you? It’s too early to be day dreaming okay? Let’s save that for lunch because I know you have something on your mind to tell me and I’m guessing it’s about your date?” Cassie narrowed her eyes before shaking her head “You know, one day your Psychic powers will get you in trouble. You know too much about me and I didn’t even say a word!” At that moment Gabi giggled“That’s what friends are for. We haven’t talked about the date so of course I know he’s the one on your mind. Let’s talk later okay?” “Okay.” Cassie smiled&n
Theo’s POVShould I say work has been stressful? Naa it’s more like it’s been a living hell!I haven’t been to a club in days, I mean what kind of life is that?It’s just been work work work and I’m sick of it! This new life style is seriously draining me mentally and physically, I might file a court case against that witch! Let’s see if she can win when I get all the workers to testify against her. The female ones though, the guys are just useless when it comes to her charms but NOT ME.You know what? I’m going to the club right now. Even though it’s pretty late, I just want to have fun… is it too much to ask?I jumped off my bed and got dressed, then I picked up my car keys and left for the club not forgetting to stop by Jerry bear’s room to say hi, but then I realized that he told me he was going on a date with that girl… I can’t really remember
Friday… “Ugh!... What the hell happened last night?” Gabi sighed as she got out of bed with a darn headache. The hell happened yesterday? “Nanny! Nanny please bring me some…”“Huh…” her eyes caught the pack of pills beside her alarm clock and a glass of water sitting still and still very untouched. “No need Nanny” she called before taking the pills in her hand. After swallowing and gulping down some water she turned to her alarm.9:47am it said “9:47… wait! NINE FOURTY SEVEN?” she screamed Oh Jesus! I’m late! I’m bloody late for work!! *Gabi rushed into the bath room In a split second to get ready for work. When she was done, she selected her work suit and put on some light make-up before running downstairs for breakfast* “How can I be this damn late!” she hissed, obviously disappointed in herself as she walked into the sitting room which was still partly the kitchen. “Good mo
Theo’s POVMaking plans …*Sitting on the couch and staring silently at the ceiling, Jerry almost already knew what was going on inside that head of Theo’s. He has found another challenge then because that evil dirty smirk and his silence just confirms it. He does that every single time he finds a new challenge but honestly, Jerry was hoping that after the Playboy had gone on vacation, he would never come back but then again, the universe just seems to remind him that not all wishes can be granted.What Jerry couldn’t understand, was why Theo hasn’t bragged about this new challenge of his since he returned from work yesterday, it was a Saturday so he expected Theo to be up and arranging for a dangerous plan on how to win This girl over“Why are you sitting there all smug” Jerry asked as he finally took his eyes off the Tom and Jerry series playing on the TV and focused it on Me“Your silence just c
Challenge: Make Gabi fall for meDAY 1Theo’s POV…So I have a plan and this is one of the things I need to do to show Gabi that she needs someone like me.Y’all know how she’s all hard working and all, I need to boost her impression of me so she can see that I’m hard-working and a confident guy, be all tough tough like an alpha male. Yeah... All women like that.I mean it’s not like I’m normally not like that, I’m just… not to shabby. I’m just alright you know?When I need to work, I work, and when I need to party, I party like crazy unlike someone… I’m not gonna call names.Seriously I can’t believe I’m doing this, Gosh I’m gonna have to stay in my office till late and then I’d have to start focusing more on my presentations, I’ll miss lots of parties and… Oh no! What if? What if I never bang another chick ever again? CALM DOWN!Calm down little Theo,Goshh…Well, I’m not going to change, this is just a temporary phase, a
CHAPTER 23Being in character, pretending to be who you’re not is… Really difficult you know? How do actors do it? You might think I’m acting already so this shouldn’t be a big deal but this right here, its about me, it’s like you guys are watching my life, like a reality show you get? And I just get to be me, to do me and piss off the Author sometimes, that’s me.But then when you have to pretend to be someone you’re not? Man, it drives you crazy as hell. Going to work early, being present at work 24/7, 5 times a WHOLE week, which is a habit I don’t want to cultivate but…Its actually paying off, let me show you…By the way I’m at work already, we’re about to start a meeting and I’ll make sure I’m one of the firsts to arrive, Gabi’s probably in the room with Cassie beside her, Nate the lover boy would also be there and Jer is obviously beside me, we’re abou
CHAPTER 24Okay, date time, date time, I’ve gotta look sexy as hell, but the problem is, how do I do that after work?Surely, I can’t go home and get ready, I think I need the help of someone else…“Yo! (Yo means Hey), Yo Jerry! I really need a favor today” I said as I knocked on his office door“Come in” he called and I twisted the nob and let myself inAs soon as I was in, I just made my intentions known “I need a spare key to your office”“What for if you don’t mind me asking?”“I’ve got a date, she’s super cute but is kind of crazy when it comes to keeping up with time so… I need to freshen up here and then go pick her up” I smiled like a 10 year old boy asking for his first X box“Cool. Here, take it, but make sure you don’t hook up in my office okay?” He looked at me with stern eyes as he handed the key over to me but
Theo’s POVThe day of the company vacationOkay so I’m all excited about this trip thing, well of course who wouldn’t!!! like, the gorgeous women, bikinis everywhere you look, I mean just looking at those boobies move up and down just makes my mouth water, the butt covered in sand, the sweaty body OH GAWD! The sunny sweet weather, palm trees and most of all the gorgeous women in bikinsssI seriously can’t wait for this freaking trip! I bet all the boys are freaking out about this vacay, this is the time where single guys get to slay and the hooked-up ones become unhooked for about a week. LOLYou know I kinda can’t help but wonder if jerry wasn’t you know, already in a relationship with Cassandra who “WORKS” in the same office with us, not that I don’t like her or I’m not cool with their relationship, it’s just that… She freaking works in the same company with us! How can
Theo was once again back in his office, doing absolutely... NothingBack where I seem to belong nowadays which is the office, don’t be surprised girls. Just looking at magazines can be a really interesting job I tell ya, It’s not like my Job’s got nothing to it, I’m just so creative that I tend to be lazy a times. Come to think of it, have you ever noticed that creative and intelligent people tend to be really lazy? They’d just lie tummy flat on the couch and watch Anime all day, and yeah anime is still a thing in this era, like how could it not be? Although Hentai is what groomed us all LOL, don’t do it if you don’t want to.Okay so back to me being lazy and reading a magazine, I really have no vibes for today, it’s like Monday morning just drains the life out of you, after such a great weekend of partying and getting high, you get to wake up to a boring Monday morning at work. I won’t hide it, as a transp
Gabi’s POV…Coming down to the last days of this project’s completion, I’ve come to understand the people of this place, why they do things they ought not to be doing, why there is clearly not a single school in the big town and how it’s basically people just trying to do anything just to get by. Now I get why that boy attacked me and stole my purse, if he had the proper guidance and education, he wouldn’t have done that. There’s not even a good mall here where people can come get foods and find a place to work, what I don’t understand is how, How can this once flourishing town be overshadowed with more than 12 Casinos and 45 hotels but not a single foundation to help those who are in need? I literally don’t get this, it’s like those people who live in main Land and squander money are inhumane! It’s not like I’m totally against them, no they’ve worked hard for their money and they simply d
I agree, me and Gabrielle have been facing some issues and it’s not nice to keep getting on the nerves of your prey so I’m going to try and make up for everything, even though I’m not sorry about any of those incidences, we are just not alike and I don’t hesitate to show it, but… Remember I’m trying to win here and gain lots of money so I really need to set aside our differences for the time being, I’m going to TOLERATE her notorious behavior but first let’s get on her good side okay?“Uhm guys if you’re down for some chilling, I know a place around the area with good booze and entertainment”“Ugh sure, since we’re done with work for today and we are in Limpopo so we might as well have fun right? Besides I’m damn tired and I really need a break from all this paper work” Cassie sighed as she stretched her limbs“Yeah I’m down”“I heard the
“… With that being said, we all know that we’ve had an ongoing contract with one of our clients concerning the renovations of some certain renowned buildings in Limpopo. I think you had that contract going on before I arrived in the company, it was precisely under the care of Mr. Pevesh who isn’t with us anymore as he has been promoted to the board of directors the week after I assumed my position as regional President of MRC in Konan city. I recently received the report that the project is in its final stages and I would like you, my elite right hand to come with me to supervise the final designs of the buildings and see if we need to step up the interior designs because I find Mr. Pevesh’s recommendations a little unsatisfying and he seemed to have calculated the budget for 4 months but this project extended for one more month so Cassie I want you to inform the finance team of this situation so we could get some more funds to finish this projec
CHAPTER 33Okay so we’ve gotta always hit the club and party, after what seems to be a successful day, I definitely deserve a treat of fine booze and beautiful women.“Jer want to hang out? I wanna go to the club to chill for a while, I’m calling Ray to come join us so are you in?”“Yeah sure, I need a drink myself” He sighed. Honestly even though the day didn’t go as planned, I know I’m glad I didn’t get fired. Well, even though I don’t really care pfft! Like I said before, I can live without a job, maybe I’d start pro gambling and be that dude dressed in all black that makes the whole room go silent when he steps in, I’d probably go to the deep dark depths of Limpopo and rule the underground, but that’s not a real flashy life you know what I’m saying? I’d only be a king that rules the night like a werewolf but with no Luna… you know the reason“Get in the car
“Just what the hell are you implying Cassie?” I grunt. She's at it again, seriously Jer you need to pull your bish together and in place!“You’re saying I woke up Sunday morning, picked up my laptop and thought it was fun to mess around with some photos from our vacation JUST TO PISS OFF GABI?” I say sarcastically, Although whoever did this… did a real great job! Like??? Look at those damn fine legs, so slender and looking sexy in that sunlight Lord! Man, whoever said the sun wasn’t a great filter for picture.And can I further ELABORATE on my chiseled chest popping out of my flower printed shirt, just out there doing its thing to the ladies. This picture clearly originated from when we were playing volleyball, as for Gab’s I don’t know. You’d be thinking what’s the fuss over this picture? It’s basically just two adults in their swimwear holding each other in a sexy highly over detailed
So...storming out and leaving everyone in disarray was quite nice and Theo like, you know, smooth and on flick, like the boss I am hehe But then... When I got back to my room and had a nice bath everything just came crashing in on my little head. I mean, my inner conscience which is the smart and reasonable Theo, not the big Theo down there trust me he's been talking these past few days I've just not been paying attention.*sighs*Back to what I was saying, so little Theo had us thinking, we just walked out on our boss on the very last day of our resort, clearly forgot that she was our boss for some brief minutes and went ahead to DISOBEY her in front of her other employes when we could'nt win because it was a case of one against the world and my decision at that moment didn’t even give a shit about me like, I had my back against the wall and the worst case scenero was me walking out the theatre and ruining everyone's spirits. WHICH I DIDSo yeah, trust th
Last day at the island…Mann… what I would give just to stay a few more days on this island. I would soo love to go treasure hunting cause it’s an island and you know the saying that all islands always have some hidden treasure laying somewhere, I guess that’ll be an adventure for another vacation. I’ll make sure I add this to my bucket listMake sure to visit this island twice.One is going to just be me alone and then the second time would be… just me?huh, I guess I’ll give it more thought. But it wouldn’t kill to just go treasure hunting on the last day, right? I’ll go tell the guys about this. Yay I’m so excited!…. Few minutes later…“Who in the world gave you that idea?” Jer looked at me like I was some crazy person. But I’m not, right guys? Like if you got the chance to go treasure hunting or hiking with me you’d soo totally lov
CHAPTER 29 II“What the f**k was that Theo!!” Ray screamed as we all stopped to catch our breath inside the abandoned building.“Hey, I was just trying to have some fun eeh. Isn’t that what we’re here for? And God! I can’t believe you all fell for that” I chuckled“Ha ha very funny, we still need to get the hell out of here” Cassie said and the other girls also murmured yes“You’re afraid because of a stupid lie that receptionist said? Y’all are just a bunch of chickens. It’s clearly fake” Nate huffed stealing the limelight. I’m sure he wants to act tough just cause Gabi's here but dude, I created this whole scenario and it’s going to go the way I planned it“Reiner babe, you’re not scared are you?” I asked as I held her chin up so she could look directly into my eyes. She was a bit caught off guard an she trembled beneath me but she still whispered a No. “Good. And what about you boss? You scared?” I turned to look at Gabi who had been silent sinc
