I closed my eyes, unable to process the right emotion to feel. Before I could mentally catch up with the fact that he had just kissed me, his hands trailed from my face to my waist.
He withdrew his lips from mine so I could catch up with breathing. He buried his face in my neck and kissed it softly. His face continued downwards and he buried it between my chest.
I moved to my left and squeezed myself the huge sized 'pillow' lying beside me. It felt so comfortable and I knew I didn't want to get up for any reason whatsoever.In my subconscious state, I remembered that I wasn't home, and that the pillow was none other than Chad. I snapped my eyes open and sat up instantly.
I shook him in fear. Although I hadn't done anything to him, I knew I was the only one taunting a sick man and if anyone found out what had happened, they would have me to blame for his accident. "You have to wake up!" I shook his shoulders even tougher than before. "Come on, you can't be so stupid!" I frowned.
As I ran up the stairs, I Iooked over my shoulder just in time to find Chad holding Rebecca down. Like I had suspected, she had attempted to run after me and was scowling like a wind beast. "Let me go Chad, I'm going to kill her, I have to kill her!"
“Where are you going?” Chad had the audacity to ask as he followed behind me while I headed down the steps. I glared at him and shook my head at his sense of humour. He must have thought of me as more of a dummy than I had expected.
“Do you mean to ask if we make accomodative provisions for the staff?” He clarified my question. “Yes.” I stood to my feet and crossed my hands across my chest. I certainly didn't want to stay here and if he said they didn’t, there was certainly no way I could fford having to pay rent for a new place at
"Chad? What are you doing here?" A part of me wanted to pull him into a higand squeeze him tight just to tellhim how much I missed him during the entire thing but that part was only about ten percent of me.I frowned and furrowed my eyebrows at him, waiting for a reasonable explanation of any sort.
Chad pulled away from me and I couldn't help how embarrassed I was by everything. He had gone ahead go kiss me in public, without caring that people could see us.He still had his hands on my waist when he stared directly into my eyes, "let's go somewhere private to talk, I brought my car."
I had never seen Chad look so embarrassed and I took the advantage to laugh at his facial expression."Relax, I'm not trying to sexually manipulate you." I had no idea why I was talking like an idiot but I thought to make free food worth it."I think you're hungrier than I thought." Chad stretched his neck and looked around to see if he would catch sight of the waiter anywhere around.I drew my lips into a pout but said nothing in response, for the fear of being loose.When he noticed I was no longer speaking, he broke the silence between us. "Do you want us to go to my house after this?""Yes please. Home was so tiring I'm not going to lie. I'm just hoping that this time around, you have things in check." I refrained from rolling my eyes, being fully aware that he knew I was referring to Rebecca in this case."Don't worry about that." He assured me. "Come on," he smiled.
I stood to my feet, unable to process the worry that came with feeling this way."Are you drunk?" I asked after a while of thinking deeply about it."No." He said in a low voice.
“I just can't believe he would do that.” I sniffed and sat on one of the couches. I wanted to get things over with. If he had not been hesistant with accusing me like that, he was not worth my time at all.“What can I do?" Cornelius was trying his best to make me feel better and although I did appreciate it, it was not being helpful.
NikkiI stood from where I sat with furrowed eyebrows and my gazed fixed on Chad. "What is she doing here?" I was thrown back. My feet were unable to consume my balance and I felt trapped. I wanted to be out of there the quickest that I could.My eyes went back to Rebecca when she broke the silence for a confused Chad that could not stop scratching the back of his neck. He was clearly not expecting her to show up here and was not taking her entrance lightly.
“Rebecca what are you doing?” I retreated from her, my eye wide open in shock I had no proper reaction because it was utterly unexpected and my brain was still trying to understand what had happened and of course she had to take it the wrong way.“I see you are speechless, that means you are all in, huh?” she came even closer than before and pulled me loser to her face with a firm grip on my neck and that was all I really needed to snap back to my senses. “What on earth are you doing?” I raised my voice, harshly slapping her hands off of me, I did not care less if I was supposed to respect her but she was being disrespectful and nothing pissed me off more.
Nikki was curious to know what the outcome of my conversation had been but I was more keen on dismissing her. I wanted to spend time with her and even force her to stay overnight but if I had to deal with my Rebecca situation before it was too late, I knew that now was the right time."She is predictable, she said she wanted to say hello because she was passing by." I rubbed the back of my neck, knowing how obvious that was if a lie.She crossed one leg over the other and raised one suspicious eyebrow at me. "Chad...""Nikki, just ignore her please." I sat in front of her and poured her a glass of cold water. "You look like you can really use some of that."She didn't say anything in response, successfully making me further uncomfortable."I'm sorry." I heaved a sighed, "trust me." felt a omo grow in my throat from saying the words especially knowing I was not worthy of her trust
ChadI panicked internally as Nikki directed the security man to let Rebecca in. I was getting mad beyond my capacity as how inconsiderate Rebecca was being especially since we had just had met in my office only a few hours ago. I thought if she pissed me too far, I would give ahead to press charges on privacy invasion without hesitation."I'm not going to allow her into this house." I focused on my reality one more time and cut in with Nikki and the patient man still standing there, waiting for my decision. "Whatever it is she wants, I'll go speak to her myself." I said, turning around to meet Nikki's gaze and on seeing the frown that she had, I immediately went to her side and gave her a small kiss on her forehead."I'm sorry." I said when I pulled away, "don't worry about anything, I know how to feel with this." I assured her and looked up at the man, "come on."I left her slipping into
I frowned at the phone and wanted to answer it immediately. A part of medid not agree in that instant. I knew it was wrong, regardless of the caller being his ex-girlfriend that still gave me no right to intrude.
“What are you talking about?” I asked her, standing to my feet in shock. I placed both my hands by the edge of the desk to support the out of nowhere dizziness that suddenly seemed to spiral around me endlessly.“You heard me Chad.” She stood to her feet as well and folded her hands across her chest. She looked up at the ceiling and sighed before looking back at me. “I took one at home first and then I did a blood test.” She opened the purse in her hand and revealed what looked like a hospital test results. This was all the proof I needed to know that she was not playing.My hands
“What do you think you are doing?” I directed at Cornelius, my heart beating fast in shock, it seemed to be like it was all happening too soon and I did not have the time to be able to process what was going on.“Are you crazy? What the fuck, that is harassing me on a completely different level.” I stood to my feet and shove him aside with a rough push on the chest.He looked like he was surprised by my act and I really felt the need to slap that lo
