Later the day. 8PM. At a Bar.
~Dare Ofegu~
"Don't even make the mistake."
I tilted my head slightly in the direction of the thick blonde who'd been checking me out all this while.
I looked up and slurped from the glass of whiskey. Twas something I could gulp at a throw but I didn't want to.
After I left Samantha since morning, I had returned to Cleaver's Ave. I had waited outside the gate for a while waiting probably Maria would show up all of a sudden. Even though I knew that the possibility was hundred to one.
But unfortunately, I'd been caught by one of the patrolling cops who had warned me sternly never to return there unless things were sorted out, else I'd have a vacation behind bars. HIS WORDS.
I looked in the direction of the lady again. She was still staring, occasionally moving to the groove of the music. I was seated at the counter.
I recalled what the Russian l
On a Sunday. Anny's.~Dare Ofegu~"How can you even be sure?"She rolled her eyes at me. I had no idea what was going on in that mind of hers, with her legs stretched across the floor, placed on the table. She probably thinks of me as a friend she could be very free with, being around. Or she's just carefree by nature. Majority of them were always. Perhaps except Ninny."Does that even matter to you? You think you know all don't you?"She chuckled. Her face folded into a beautiful smile. For a moment, I considered her closely, a scrutinized gaze. I couldn't believe that I haven't noticed how really beautiful she was.The outline of her face was close to perfect, coupled with her lovely smile. Her button nose created a great impression on the full lips. I guess I was thinking too much. But truth be told, she's quite the beauty."Are you even listening?"I he
At a garden park. ~Ninny~ "I don't have to ask how you're doing. You seem well." I started, seated on a long armed-bench with him. For some reasons not specific, we'd kept a distance between each on the bench. He took me in his gaze. His eyes tender, but chin tough. Couldn't be sure what meaning to make of that. "You seem fine too. I'm glad." Those words were without friction. I nodded. There was a brief silence between us. But twasn't awkward. I could see his lips making an attempt to move, "About that n--" "You might be wondering why I called you." I had snatched the stance from him. He gave in, pushing his head down in sequence, thoughtfully. "I just want to hear from you. " "What did you mom say?" He was quick to ask. "It doesn't matter what she said. I want to hear from you. I know you've known that all this tim
Kafula. ~Samantha~ "Come in." The legal representative strode in and I waved him to a sit. As soon as he settled down, "Thanks for coming as soon as possible. It's long due." He smiled, "It's an honor to be a choice to the owner of Kafula. There's nothing to make up for that." Though I didn't fully grasp his insinuation of the last sentence, but I wasn't sure if twas worth dwelling upon. "Do you care for anything?" He shook his head, his signature smile, "Pretty cool. Let's get to business." I pushed my head down softly. "You might have heard. About my boyfriend who went rogue recently." He nodded, "News travel quickly." I leaned forward in the chair, arms tucked into each other, then placed on the table. "I want him back at all cost, or make life a living hell for him." He smiled again. But then, his bro
Kafula.~Samantha Gasglow~"Report to my office immediately."After speaking into the transmitter, I dropped it on the table. I hate to give up. I hate to knuckle under the fact that Dare eventually escaped the fog of my wrath. No one had ever, and no one would ever. Not even Dare.But one thing I've come to realize is the fact that, if I really do have and want to get what I want, then I mustn't trust it to someone else. I must go for it myself."Fucking law firms stuck to legal shits."I grunted as I looked up and saw the bot doing the robotic moves towards my office."Let's hope you can help."I muttered and quickly went over the files on my PC again. I entered the last signature and closed the software, point in time she stepped in. I asked,"Can you track Dare down, at the moment?"She strode in and stood before me, behind the chair opposite mine. I, leaning back i
Loinglot Ave.~Stifler Annabelle~"Let's hope he takes it in good faith."I slammed the door of my 2018 brand Rolls-Royce, but the door closed itself gently, till its locks keyed in.I headed towards my building and stepped in. Twas 6PM, but the lights were on. I strode through the hallway into the sitting room. There he was on the couch, a video reality glasses on his face as he danced around the space between the couches.I watched him stand up, trembling, breathing heavily as he threw his hands in the air to the tune of whatever he was seeing in the virtual reality.I didn't know why I bursted out laughing at how ridiculous he seemed. But the humor didn't last for long, as I my thoughts began to stray off whatever he was doing.My mind strayed to the biceps and triceps lacing his bare arms. He was wearing a tank top and shorts. His thick thighs with inviting veins and stream
Loinglot Ave.~Anny~"I guess he's home."I tapped out of sleep on the couch as I heard a car pull over at the front of the house. I was dressed in my nightgown. I couldn't go to bed yet. I'd called him but he'd screened my calls. I hated to think that he'd went out of line and Samantha had thrown him behind the bars. Of course I knew what the crazy billionaire is capable of doing.I wasn't so sure until the entrance door opened and I heard unstable steps tottering through the hallway towards the living room."Dare, is that you?"I stood up, walking away from the couch. I knew the question I'd asked wasn't necessary. There was nobody else who would had entered into my apartment without my consent. Of course except a thief. But of course, a thief can never totter. Or maybe I was thinking what I wanted to believe.I was standing at the front of the arm of the couch, facing the hallway as I sa
Loinglot Ave.~Dare Ofegu~"At least today is the last, we have to talk about what happened that day. We can't keep ignoring it."She was standing at the door to my room. I was inside, packing the clothes into the suitcase. I hesitated for a while but was quick to dismiss it. I guess I am smart enough to know that she wasn't going to leave there until I replied.Well, I knew too well that I was the one who ought to talk about what we shared a day before yesterday. But I have been avoiding it.Most times, before she got back from work, I'd had gone to my room and locked the door. When I do recall how childish I had been these past two days, I just make a mockery of myself."Okay."I let go of what I was doing and turned to her. I walked by the side of the bed to the front and sat at the edge, a position where I could look at her directly; she kept her stance still at the door."I'm sorry because I'v
Morgan Hill Hotel. San Jose. California.~Dare Ofegu~"This must be it."I muttered, looking up at the name of the hotel. It's a huge five star hotel. There I was, after several minutes of driving."What could she be doing in a five star hotel? How could she afford it? Is she meeting some billionaire guy? Repeating my error?!"I tried arguing with my instinct. I looked at my back. At Annabelle's Rolls-Royce. I pushed the button and the car beeped locked. I headed into the building.After several formalities and shit, I stepped out of the elevator and headed towards her room. Room 105."This must be."I took a deep sigh. What if it was a prank. Maybe it's Samantha or so.Shut the fuck up, Dare. What kinda degenerative thought is that?!I pulled at the door bell and after few seconds the door opened. And there she was. Sexier and more beautiful."Dare!!"She whooped for jo
