“Wait,don’t tell me Ethan is the guy she told me about?” Ann said looking surprised.“What did she tell you about him?” Henry said “Nothing much. Just that they’ve been going out everyday ever since they met. So I definitely know about him.” Ann said “Well,he told me about a lady but I don’t know her name and I’ve never seen her before. Moreover you also didn’t introduce your friend to me.” Henry said “I wanted to but she's busy with the shoot. Well,you’re meeting her today.” Ann said “Yeah,let’s go in.” Henry said They walked in just when they were concluding the shoot. Martha saw her and walked towards her,same with Henry. “How come you guys are here together? Do you have to go everywhere with your girlfriend?” Ethan said and hugged Ann. “How have you been?” Ann asked him. “I’m okay.” Ethan replied “Do you guys know each other?” Martha asked, confused about what’s going on. “Ohh,I’m sorry. Let me do the introduction,(she grabbed Henry’s hand) this is Henry,my boyfriend. A
“He has a female best friend???” Martha and Ann chorused. Somehow they were shocked to hear that. Ann thought Henry doesn’t have any other friends other than Ethan because he has never talked about any one else. She didn’t bother to ask him because she also doesn’t have anyone else other than Martha. And now she’s finding out that he has another friend and not just any friend,a female best friend and that threw her off her feet.“Why are you guys so shocked to hear that? Is it a crime to have a female best friend?” Henry asked “Yes it is.” Martha said “I don't understand, why is that?” Henry asked “You have a girlfriend,so she should be your best friend too. Having another female best friend asides her can make her feel insecure.” Martha said “I still don’t understand how having a female best friend can make her feel insecure. She’s just a friend.” Henry said “Just like you said earlier as a joke although I’m not sure, how do you think she will feel if she visits you and she meet
It was a bright sunny afternoon. A car stopped in front of a building,its driver side open and a lady in her early twenties stepped out. She looks so beautiful in her simple yet elegant outfit. She wore a black, knee-high fitted gown,silver heels and a bag to match. Her simple necklace looks tiny but clearly expensive. Everything speaks of luxury.She entered the building and was greeted by all the workers in the house. She was ushered in without any disturbance as she was already familiar with everyone in the house. She was engaged to their boss and was respected by everyone. She has been calling her fiancé for hours for a scheduled lunch date but he didn’t pick his calls and did not show up at the date either,so she decided to visit him at home.She went straight to his room as she didn’t see him in the sitting room. She saw a lady’s purse on the couch and while she was starting to wonder what a lady’s bag was doing in her fiancé’s house,she started hearing sounds from upstairs
An hour later, Ann drove into a big mansion and she parked her car. Few workers in the compound greeted her and a woman in her late thirties who is also a worker in the house walked up to her,greeted her and took her bag. The woman practically raised Ann as her nanny. She is also aware of everything going on in the house. Mary,the nanny is a like a mother to Ann. Mary approached her looking worried.“I don’t know exactly what happened between you and Jenny,but I’m sure it’s something big. The mother and daughter have been waiting for you to come back”. Mary said. “I know. I will explain everything to you later. Let me just hear what they have to say”. Ann replied.“Do you think that’s a good idea? You know nothing good will ever come out of it. Just use the back door. It’s better to avoid them.” Mary said.“You know avoiding them is not the solution”. It’s useless. Let’s get this over with.” Ann replied and went into the living room. In the large,well decorated sitting room with di
A young man was sitting quietly in his office,focused on what he was doing on his computer while sipping a cup of coffee. In the office was a large sofa at one end,two luxurious chairs just opposite him, he was typing very fast as he must meet up with a deadline. A lady knocked on the door and he raised his head.“Come in.” He answered.“Sir, I sent the file to your mail now. Can you confirm it?” The lady said.“ I hope there are no mistakes? We can’t afford mistakes now.” Henry said. “No sir. I cross checked it already.” The secretary replied.“Very good. I will attach it and send it to them.” Henry said.“Alright sir.” The lady said and left. Henry is the CEO of Star’s corporation. The only son of Mr and Mrs smith. His father made him the CEO a few years ago and he made sure not to stain his father’s reputation. He is a boss who doesn’t tolerate nonsense. He is feared in the city, no one has ever dared him without facing the consequences. He has won numerous awards and also made
Someone knocked on his door.Henry stood up, walked to the door and pushed it open. “Sorry sir. I want to ask you if you’re ready to eat. It’s time for dinner.” Brian,Henry’s assistant said.“Don’t bother about it. I will go and get something for myself when I’m done. You can go.” Henry said and closed the door.He went back to his room and finished what he was doing,grabbed his phone and went out to get dinner for himself.He met a young lady in front of the elevator who was also going to take the elevator downstairs. Ann’s povAnn saw a man standing in front of the elevator and greeted him but he did not respond to her greeting.“He’s so rude.” She thought to herself. They both took the elevator and went to the hotel’s restaurant for dinner. They ate at different tables quietly and few minutes later Ann stood up to leave when she got a clearer picture of the man in front of her. “That’s him,or am I getting him confused with someone else?” Ann said to herself. She left the restaur
“If you want an answer to that question,then you better calm down and treat me with some respect at least. I’m not one of those girls that are after you because of who you are. Do you understand?” Ann said in a very angry tone.“Do I look like I care? It’s all past tense anyway. I don’t know know where you heard that story but whatever it is that you are planning will not work.” Henry replied. “I blame myself for thinking you will have some human feelings,for thinking I can talk to you like a mature adult.” Ann said and left the place when she noticed they were starting to get peoples attention. “Who the hell is she? Why does she think so high of herself? Bryan.” Henry called his assistant.“Sir,you called me.” Bryan said as he moves closer to him.“Find out everything you can about that lady. I mean everything,including what she has for breakfast. I hope you know what I mean?” Henry said authoritatively.“I understand sir.” Bryan said and opened the owner’s side of the car for Henry
They met the following morning and the four of them accompanied by two employees from Mr. Julius company, went to the location where the project will be taking place to do some inspection. Ann was finding it hard to remain professional that morning because they have to go back home after the inspection. She felt helpless looking at a man she had always wanted to meet again for the past three years in front of her and she not being able to do anything. “I never expected this to be the outcome of meeting him again. I had so many expectations and he just chose to be the complete opposite of what I wanted. What do I do now? I’m so confused.” She said in her head,showing little or no interest in what is going on in front of her. “Are you here?” A staff that accompanied them to the site asked after she noticed that Ann was not making any contributions to what they were discussing. “Yeah I’m good. I can hear you loud and clear,so you can continue.” Ann replied. Henry looked at her for

Ann thought Henry doesn’t have any other friends other than Ethan because he has never talked about any one else. She didn’t bother to ask him because she also doesn’t have anyone else other than Martha.

“This lady in question is a model. I met her on set today.” Ethan said.“Really? So you’re going back on your words now?” Henry said “For her,yes. She’s worth doing that for.” Ethan replied“You met her today. Are you sure it’s safe for you to drool over her like this? You don’t even know her that well.” Henry said out of concern for his friend. “We went out for a drink and we talked about so many things. She’s not one of those ladies that go out with so many friends. She said she has just one best friend and she’s also a general manager in her father’s company. Imagine a young lady like that with two careers and she’s doing well with it.” Ethan said “My girlfriend is also a career woman. So don’t brag in front of me. She’s not even your girlfriend yet.” Henry said “Very soon. You know I don’t fail when it comes to ladies.” Ethan said “Yeah, I trust you on that. When are you going to introduce her to me?” Henry asked “So fast? Did you introduce your girlfriend to me as soon as y
“You couldn’t say no to him but you didn’t think twice when you sent me a text to cancel our plans? You sly.” Ann said “Why are you being difficult? Just think of it as an emergency.” Marta said “It’s fine. I enjoyed myself too.” Ann said “That’s true. Why are you just coming back?” Martha said “Think of it as an emergency too.” Ann said smiling.“You went out with Henry?” Martha asked “Yes.” Ann replied “Are you guys really dating now?” Martha asked “Well,yes. We settled our differences and he asked me to be his girlfriend. No,he asked me to be his woman.” Ann said proudly. Martha screamed excitedly. “I’m so happy for you.” Martha said “And,he apologized for not recognizing me when we met. He actually lost his memory of that night and the little he remembered was useless. He couldn’t find anything to trace me.” Ann said. She briefed Martha on everything that happened. The date,the settings of the place,how he apologized and lastly how he asked her to be his woman.“And what
Monday morning at Henry’s office.Henry called Bryan.“Come to my office now.” Henry said and dropped the telecom immediately,not waiting for his reply. “Hello sir.” Bryan said when he got to Henry’s office. “Hey Bryan. I need you to do something for me.” Henry said “Alright sir,what is it?” Bryan replied. “Annabel has a younger sister,do you know that?” Henry asked “Yes sir. I found out about it when I did some background investigation on her.” Bryan replied “Okay. So I want you to find out everything about her sister,and also her relationship with Annabel. I just want to know everything about her, even her favorite restaurant should be included.” Henry said “Okay sir.” Bryan replied “That’s not all. She got engaged last weekend, I want you to find out everything,I repeat everything about that guy. Don’t leave out any information. Do you understand?” Henry said “Yes sir.” Bryan replied “I want this report on my table before Friday. You can leave now.” Henry said. “Alright,
He moved closer to her a little bit and drew her to him till there was no space between them. He took one of his hands and placed it on her chin rubbing it softly,he brought his face closer to hers and kissed her again. The kiss was more intense this time. They both forgot every other thing and focused on each other,Ann wrapped her hands around his neck and as they kissed so deeply. Henry moved his hands gently from her waist down to her hips, he caressed her hips moving his hands on the unclothed parts of her thighs. He slipped his hand gently under her gown touching her bare body causing Ann to suddenly break from the kiss holding his hand. He expected her to stop him like the last time or get angry but he was wrong. Ann stared into his eyes and kissed him back while releasing his hand,she parted her legs a little bit giving him the full access to touch her. Henry was excited to see that and he was quick to make use of the opportunity. He brought his other hand down to her second
“Will you be my woman?” Henry said. Ann opened her mouth in surprise. She might have acted like she didn’t care in front of Martha but she actually wished he would ask her out which he just did but she never expected him to say it in such a sweet and romantic way. It took her a while before she could say anything.“What! I’m sorry about that, I wasn’t yelling at you. I just…… I don’t know.” Ann said, stammering.“I know I took you by surprise and I’m sorry about that. I just couldn’t keep it to myself anymore.” Henry said “No,you don’t have to apologize,you didn’t do anything wrong. I’m just being overly dramatic right now. I guess I’ve been single for too long,I’m not used to this.” Ann said “I’m not putting pressure on you. You don’t have to force yourself to give me a reply right now, you can take your time. I just want you to know how I feel about you.” Henry said “You’re not pressuring me. Let me start by thanking you for coming out clean about that night. I know how hard it m
“It’s about what actually happened three years ago.” Henry said and Ann looked so surprised. She wondered what he was going to talk about. “What about it?” Ann said “Before I proceed, I want to apologize to you for the way I reacted when you tried to talk about it the first time we met. I didn’t expect to see someone who knows about that night in such a place.”Henry said “You’ve apologized to me already, why are you bringing it up again?” Ann said “It seems you’re not listening to me. The thing is, I regained my memory of that night.” Henry said“What memory are you talking about? Can you please talk in a way that I will understand instead of going through corners?” Ann said “Okay. I lost my memory of that night. I couldn’t remember anything when I woke up the next morning ,not even how I got there. I was going to ask you about it but I had an emergency. I received a call from home that my mom passed away that morning so I had to leave immediately. The duvet was covering your f
“I will doll you up so pretty that he will be so mesmerized when he sees you.” Martha said “I hope so too. I want to impress him but I don’t want to do too much.” Ann said “Don’t worry, I will take care of it.” Martha said “Let’s just take a nap for about an hour or two. I’m really exhausted.” Ann said Martha agreed and they took a nap for about two hours. By the time they woke up,it was about two hours to the time she was supposed to meet Henry. She got up immediately and went into the bathroom to take her bath. She woke Martha up after she finished bathing for her to help her dress up. Martha started with her make up,it was a light make-up just as Ann wanted it. She styled her hair in a ponytail with three partings by the left side of the hair. Ann wore her dress and a pair of earrings to fit. She brought out pencil heels and a bag to match. By the time they finished their dressing,Henry’s driver was already at Martha’s gate. Martha escorted Ann to the door.“Why do I feel so n
