I mastered courage and faced him after doing a breathing contest for a while. "Sorry to bother you but please can you kindly show the way to Susan's bedroom?""What made you think I know her bedroom?"He asked instead of answering me. It was good for a start, at least he didn't snub me. "I don't know, just have the feeling you might know. After all, you live here in the same house with her?"I replied to him. He chuckled and looked away after crossing his legs "Well, find her. I am not here to aid anybody."He said dismissively I rolled my eyes at the level of his arrogance, his rudeness is top-notch. "I don't blame him, if I'm not here, will I see him to ask for anything, talk more of tolerating his excesses."I muttered and walked out in search of the bedroom. After going through a series of doors, I found the one I felt was hers and made to knock when I heard someone moan. I brought my ears closed to the door and it was Susan moaning. She is making out with Zain. I f
After I was done talking with her, I called Mom and believe me, mom did not wait for it to ring before she picked it up. It was more like she was waiting anxiously for me to call. "Hi, Mom!""Sweetheart, I was waiting for you to call. What took you so long? I already called Zain and he said you both had an uneventful Journey still I was dying to hear from you" "I am sorry mom for not calling earlier. I am good though and Susan is fine"I said with the hope she would calm down. She sounded as if she was on the verge of panicking. "I am glad you are my dear. Just don't forget that your stay there is for a short while.""I won't forget, take care of yourself. I have got to go now. Love you" "Love you, baby girl"She said and the call went off.I dropped the phone and went to arrange my clothes in the closet in anticipation of the money for shopping being brought to me. I was lost in my environment to notice a second party in my room. I turned around when I felt uncomfo
Jenny's point of view... I got to the car and entered. I was aware of his stares on me but I don't give a damn about it anyway. I settled in and gestured for him to move the car and he did wordlessly. I did not get to see Reben Castle on our way here because I was asleep and I can tell you that what I am seeing, I am impressed with it. The hood is calm but there is no way I will compare it to my neighborhood. I kept looking out through the glass, just to get my mind occupied, away from Zain. His thoughts refused to leave my mind and I am not finding it funny. He can't stay in my mind when I can't have him. He has no right to remain in my head. If it's going to be this way for me then I would go insane before I leave here. I just hope for the will to overcome and not fall and fail my sister because it will hurt her if eventually I do not control myself and have an affair with her husband. Who in his or her right sense would do that? But then love makes you do insane things.
We said nothing to each other ever again. He picked all that he thought we needed and made his way to the counter as I followed him behind. On our way to the counter, I saw this dude looking my way. I thought of something and I decided to shoot my shot. Instead of continuing with Zain, I walked to him and smiled. "Hello handsome, I see you looking my way. My name is Jenny and I like you"The guy chuckled and shook his head. "You bold and I like it, I am Lucas," He said checking me out"You have got a nice name, it suits you anyway. Nice to meet"I complimented him with a wide smile on my face. "I must say the same thing about you, you look pretty and bold and I must say you are my spec. What would you say if we became friends?" He asked with a wide grin."I like the sound of that, we are friends then" I replied, maintaining the smile on my face. I gave him my phone and he keyed in his digits and afterwards, handed the phone back to me. "So tell me, are you just arrivi
Jenny's point of view…. Slapping him was all I could think of when he pushed me into his car. Though he did it gently, it was not nice at all. Pushing a lady is not an ideal thing and for that, I wanted to give him my piece of mind then I remembered he is looking for what will make me say something to him. I am sure my silent treatment has been tailing him. I got settled and ignored him totally after telling myself how I will deal with him if he tries that with me again. I felt suffocated and doing anything to take my mind off Zain was worth my time so I called Moris and the dude had to allow me to call him twice before he was able to pick up. If he did not pick, I could have continued calling him. "Hey boo! you didn't even call to check on me. Is that how a good boyfriend should do?"I said while I eyed Zain. He clutched his hand on the steering which means he is pissed off. "Sorry darling, got busy but I was gonna call you anyway. How are Reben Castle and your siste
Jenny's point of view…. We got home and I ran out of the car without getting the shopping bags. I needed to wash my mouth and it was so urgent. His taste refused to leave my mouth and I could not bear it. I ran into Owen who brushed me aside without saying anything yet I muttered sorry as I ran into my room. I got to my room and searched for my toothbrush. I saw it and I rushed Into the bathroom to brush off Zain's taste in my mouth. I got done quickly and breathed in relief after checking my mouth to see if it was still there as if his breath is visible My stomach growled and I remembered that I had to eat and that will be after cooking which will take up to an hour. I just hope he brought in those bags. I left my room almost immediately. When I got to the kitchen, the bags were lying carelessly on the counter with no one insight. Since I just arrived, I would not know what Susan will be having. You know, pregnant women and trouble are friends. I left to ask her
My noodle was ready and I dished mine out then left the one for Zain and his brother inside the pot and left the kitchen after getting a glass of orange juice for myself. I got to the living room and turned the TV on, then relaxed to have my noodles. It was just me and no one else, hoping that it will remain like that until I am done with lunch but that prayer was not answered. Owen walked in and dropped on my side of the couch. I was wondering when we became friends for him to sit near me. The last time I checked, he never said anything to me. "Is this how you do, you cook and eat all by yourself?"He asked and eyed my food. If he plans to eat my food then it's not going to work. I picked up my plate of Noodles and scooped some into my mouth, ignoring him totally. I gave him no answer to the question he asked rather I chewed my noodles nonchalantly. "I see you are rude"He said and snatched the plate of Noodles from me before I could even stop him. I glared at him then char
I was rooted in the same spot for five minutes. I could not just get the thought of Susan cheating on Zain out of my head. Why would she do that and even if she has to cheat, why with the pregnancy? She is carrying a soul and she doesn't need to discredit the little soul. I was angry that she had to think with her ass instead of her head and fact that it has to be Zain. It suits them both, I should not have a headache because of the two of them. They can live their lives the way they want. I turned around and left the room with the phone in my hand, pretending that I saw nothing. I handed the phone to her and left. I wasn't ready to see her reaction or if she would react. Susan can act and if anyone should know her too well it should be me. I got to my room and lay on the bed. I was not feeling myself and I could say I know why. I am missing mom and Tasha and at the same time feeling giddy which means I miss Moris. I contemplated calling him but decided to call
