He couldn't miss his appointment this morning neither could he tell Allen or Stella who he had an appointment with. He just needed to be there, and yes this early. It was this important.
After getting home late at night, he met Stella sleeping but he never tried to disturb her, what was he supposed to do again, lure her to an unwanted sex? No, it was also a stressful day for him so he needed rest. They both had a peaceful sleep.
He didn't say much to her this morning too, he had woken up early and he didn't dress up for work. He was just casual. It upset Stella he didn't tell her where he was heading to.
He didn't like the mood he left Stella this morning and he knew he would definetely be questioned when he gets back but he needed to meet up this early and he also knew how proud Stella would be if she finds out what he was up to. He could feel her rage presently at home, but he promised himself to buy her a bribe on his way

Sometimes she wondered why Rose husband doesn't come home by this time. "Rose!" she shouted her name with more urgency and shock glaring at the position she was on the bed. "He's just an house boy!" she spat. Stella was happy she didn't see the boy naked. If she had, she would literally beat him out of the room like that. She always told Rose not to deal with people that would disrespect her, but her friend wanted young blood anyways. Thank goodness it was just Rose's upper body that was naked and the boy was under the bed spread with only his head popping out. "A boy with big property... girl you just ruined the moment, why didn't you even knock?"Rose grunts. Privacy was not included in their friendship rules, this wasn't something to hide. Rose probably just said it

There were no classes at evening so the class was empty, he head to his instructor's office. There she sat roaming her eyes into some books on her table, she raised her head up and saw Marcus standing at the door. She gave a warm smile and stood on her feet too. "You sounded urgent" Marcus eyes rolled hesitating to come in even with her welcoming smile. Seeing her on her feet he sighted the new dress she was wearing, different from the one he saw in the morning, she didn't look like his fitness instructor here, but she really looked fit. She was a work of expertise. "Well, you could just take a sit and know why you're really here Mr Marcus" she said and after giving it some thoug

Flora watched her boss eat, it wasn't mannerless though, but it was obvious he was very hungry, she wouldn't blame him. He uses the strength he was supposed to save for later to scold her for not dressing as he wanted. Allen looked up to see Flora still staring at him without taking a bite from her food. He stopped eating and gently rubbed his mouth with the napkin on the table. He wondered why she stared at him this awkward. "You don't like it?" he questioned her preference of food. "You can have it if you want" she bluntly said to sound rude on purpose but Allen gladly dragged her own serve of the food and dig his spoon inside. She didn't know how to react but she was

Why should that happen anyway?.She stopped her car and turned to Allen. "Thank you"he said the words she wanted to hear. She gave a short smile and an approval nod and drove out of the house. Allen turned to the house direction,saw Stella standing by the door step, he checked his wristwatch and saw that time was fast spent. She was with a worrisome look and wrinkles form on her forehead. He walked to her and stood in front of her. " Where's Marcus? "was the first question she threw at him. He wasn't expecting a squeeze on her face as she always seemed happy to see only him at home. She looked behind him to check for another incoming car but she didn't see none. " Who was that?"she asked. "Marcus ha

He just got back from wherever he went to and he was not going to work today, what other explanation could he give if he didn't want to reveal his fitness practice to her. He paced the room three times beating his legs continuously. Stella sat with her phone as she watched her husband in disarray. He was casually dressed to go out but he looked bothered about telling her where. "Marcus"her questioning tone caused him to stop at a spot. Could she see how nervous he was? He turned to her and gave her a short wink bouncing on the bed where she was and touched her leg. "Are you okay?"she asked him "Definitely"he said too quickly "You want to go somewhere?" "Yes. With you...let's take a walk"He was certainly going to skip a class today, he wasn't rea
