I shook my head in disapproval, responding, "No you can't come in. What do you want?" I asked, pushing the door closer that there was just a little gap, between my face and his body."Well, I just wanted to come in and see you, can I come in?" he asked, his voice hoarse and low.I shook my head, and said, "Please Stop giving me the puppy look.""Don't give me that face, you have just less than ten minutes to be here. Anything more than that, you'll have to leave," I beckoned on him to come in as I slid open the door and shut it behind me as he waited for me to close the doorIt seemed like there was an electric invisible force that went through me, freeing my hands from the door and making me open the door. "Thank you, momma," Aiden said and butterflies in my belly began to fight again.Walking past him, my ass landed on my bed and I folded my arms watching him walk towards me. "Why don't you just sit there? Like that's a seat there, why are you walking towards me?" I asked, my heart b
In his arms, I rested on his broad chest and shut my eyes as my ears heard the rhythm of his heartbeat. As he walked upstairs to my room and opened the door, I looked at his eyes and he looked at mine then he bent down, our eyes still locking themselves."Do you know what you are doing? Letting this ma carry you ?" A voice in my head howled and I replied inwardly, "Even I don't know what I am doing, but it feels good.""You smell nice," Aiden said, breaking eye contact from me as he stood upright and I rolled my body and smiled, "I know I always do. Wanna get enveloped in me?" I could hear myself say.Aiden stopped his walk halfway and turned to me. "As long I want to get enveloped around you, I know that you are only joking and that's not true or from your heart.""I'm being honest with you. I want you lying right beside me," I said, my voice low and my eyes locking in his and Aiden stood freezing. Hesitatingly he walked closer to me, "Just for the night right?" "Yes, I guess," I mut
Seeing that the message was sent, I chuckled silently and dropped the phone then I dropped my head to rest. The following morning, my eyes opened to the light and I rolled away from the bed. I looked at Aiden who was still lying on the bed. Tapping on him, I muttered, "Wake up, stop sleeping." He rolled his eyes and stood up from the bed. He rubbed his eyes and smiled at me. "How was your night?" he asked me and I smiled at him. "I'm okay, I think you should leave now, you have overstayed your welcome.""Oh, sorry, I overslept. Good morning beauty queen," he stretched his arms wide and I rolled my eyes and he walked away, scratching his head as he walked out of him while I glared at him as he walked to the doorWatching him open the door, I sighed at the sound of the door shut then I rested back on the bed. A few minutes later, my door opened while I was dressing up to go out. As I looked up at the sound of the angry voice, I placed my hands on my hips and asked, "Why are you angril
I sat on my bed thinking about my life and what I am living for. I am mentally drained from the death of my father. I still can't believe it is real. It all started on this rainy day, I wasn't at home the day it happened. I was at Jamila's place.When I came back from Jamila's place my Mom told me, she heard a knock on the door and when she opened the door, It was a soldier who came to announce to us that my dad, her husband was dead. He told my mom that my dad had died at the war front.Mom and I cried our eyes out and I cried my eyes out too because how was I going to survive and now I don't have a daddy? My dad was my best friend and lover and now he is gone. I felt really sad. How was I going to cope? I just hope everything worked out well because it's all draining.My door creaked open revealing my mom Mrs Rita. "Becky, dress up quick, we are going to Emily's place. Her mom just called to tell you that Jamila is sick. Be quick, let's go and visit her." "What's wrong with her
I was made to believe in love, Xavier made me madly in love. I loved him so much and guessed he loved me as much as I loved him.After all the love and sweeteners and cinnamon, I caught him cheating on me on this blessed day. I did not believe my eyes because it seemed unbelievable.It may sound unbelievable to you or maybe not because maybe you have been in my position before. LOL, cry me a river because of some child called a boyfriend.That blessed day, I suggested that we should go meet up and at least have fun because I missed him and badly wanted to see him, which he obliged.He said he was busy and wouldn't have the time for the fun I needed. When I asked him what was keeping him busy, he hesitated for a while before telling me that he had an academic project to handle and that the deadline was close.That answer he gave and the way he hesitated before answering made me feel he was lying and making up because maybe I don't know. It's all past, dead and gone.But still, I persis
As I stepped out of the house, I had this feeling of weakness to go back inside and sleep or maybe watch TikTok videos or read a book.As I stepped into the hood with no place in mind to go, I decided to go to where my spirit would lead me.I took steps as I walked along the alley. I finally decided to order an Uber. I clicked on my Uber app and ordered a ride. A few minutes later the Uber arrived and I hopped in. Still without an idea of where to go. I finally decided to go to the Cinema to watch a movie and chill down with an ice cream or popcorn.The driver drove really fast and soon we arrived there. I stepped into the Cinema, bought a ticket, and jolted down into the Cinema seat.At first, I didn't notice that everyone was in two's. As I looked around, everyone at the Cinema sat with partners making me remember Xavier. I immediately pushed away the thoughts, after all, he was busy.After thirty minutes of watching the movie, my belly started sprouting with pain. I decided to u
Her eyes met my eyes, she didn't move for a minute, and the shocked, stricken look in her eyes grew more intense but she laughed and walked towards me smiling, " Hey...Baby, what are you doing here?" She asked me and turned to look at Xavier who stood with me.I kept mute and looked at her and Xavier once again before I spoke." I came to chill, you know see the movies", I feigned a chuckle.Then I directed the question to both of them "So what are you two doing here?" I said, maintaining a calm voice free of suspicion from my angle."Well, I just met Xavier here.. and it's quite a coincidence that you are here too," She said, still smiling at me as I wondered where she got the nerve to betray me, lie in my presence, and still smile while maintaining a poker face."Well, it's really a coincidence. Bye," I turned myself and decided to walk out but Jamie grabbed me from behind trying to talk to me." Wait, Becky..." She called my real name which she rarely called." Is there anything you
I quickly walked away and my chest churned with pain, this pain was no ordinary pain It was pain from something I couldn't tell. Maybe it was called love.I did not go back to the movie hall again, I went out straight out and ordered a ride back home. While inside the Uber, I tried to hold back the tears from coming out of my eyes. I blinked over a million times, I wished the speed of the vehicle was like the speed of light, and in the blink of an eye, I would be home.But no!! The ride took an eternity.Finally, I got home after a long ride. I got into the house to see my mom preparing my favorite meal, sushi rolls and soy sauce. The aroma of the food filled everywhere, almost blocking my nostrils."Hey, Becky you home?" My mom asked when she raised her head to see me open the door.I replied, "Yes ma'am". My voice could be barely heard."How'd your day go?" She continued to spark up a conversation but my soul was too troubled and angry to speak.I was angry, anger is an understate
