“How were you able to convince him to follow you?” I queried Erica as I dropped my mug on the table.
“Nothing much, just that you were dying and needed him to come hear your last words.” She said in a duh tone and I gave her a heavy punch on the shoulder earning a little yelp of pain.
“So have you told him?” Erica asked as she returned to taking a sip of her coffee.
“Not yet Eri.” I replied rather passively.
“You have a few more days before I spill the beans to him by myself.” She ranted as I kept raising my brows at her.
“I’ll tell him tonight okay?” I said in defense.
“That’s your choice B.” Erica said taking a cookie.
“I saw Ashley today. She looked like a million bucks.” She joked and threw the cookie at me.
“Obviously.” I laughed clapping my hands.
“I’m gonna miss you on the pole tonight.” She added and my mind flashed back to the fact that I was still on suspension.
“I’m gonna miss me too.” I said with a scoff batting my lashes. My mind’s not at rest.

“Hey Doll!” Dwayne greeted giving me a peck on the cheek as he walked into my living room.
“Good evening D.” I also greeted with a little smile.
“How was work today?”
“Went well, how was your day?” He replied grabbing my lil waist.
“Was okay and boring. Also, remember that I’ve been suspended from work.” I said faking a little frown.
“Oh my bad!” He whispered in my ear still grabbing my waist.
“I wanna tell you something D. Let’s sit down first.” I announced and he sat down on the sofa dragging me to sit beside him.
“Go ahead Doll I’m listening.” He said after a little silence had set in.
“Well, I Uhm.., I’d be lying if I said that I have not been thinking about the kiss and uh hoping for a replay.” I stuttered nervously rubbing my fingers.
“Oh that, me too Doll.” He said smiling broadly.
“And not just that, over the past few months of our friendship, I’ve started developing a great deal of feelings for you Dwayne and I would be happy if you made me your girlfriend.” I stated boldly looking him in the eye.
“Tell me you’re joking.” He said laughing so hard.
“I’m dead serious Dwayne.” I said in a whisper.
“Thought you didn’t do boyfriends ey?” He dragged on placing his hand on his chin.
“Why do you have to so unserious and annoying right now?” I said with a little frown.
Acting on my intuition, I grabbed his face with both hands and pressed my lips so hard against his and he responded immediately. I sat astride on his laps and this time around, I totally dominated the kiss.
I could feel the bulge again in his pants as he pressed his body against mine squeezing my backside.
Breaking the kiss for a minute to catch our breaths, he finally said;
“I’ll be your boyfriend Doll.” He said in a husky voice and Immediately claimed my lips for another breathtaking kiss as I clawed at his t-shirt trying to get it off.
“Let’s go all the way.” I whispered in his ear.
“Lemme lock the door first, hold that thought.” He said and I reluctantly let him go lock the front door.
He returned from locking the door with a big fat grin on his face as I motioned for him to come closer with my fingers.
Dwayne carried me from the couch and jogged up the stairs kicking my bedroom door open with his right leg.
Dropping me on the bed he shut the door and took off his t-shirt before walking over to the bed.

“Good morning Doll.” Dwayne greeted sweetly with a little smile as he walked into the bedroom carrying a tray full of food.
“Morning D. Is that breakfast?” I questioned stretching tiredly on the bed.
“Nah! It’s lunch.” He announced and my eyes widened in shock.
“C’mon I’m just fooling around with ya.” He said with a chuckle and I breathed a sigh of relief.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s afternoon already cause of the marathon I ran with him last night.
“Get your butt up and eat something.” He said slapping my backside.
“Ouch!” I winced pretending to be in pain while he kept smirking and arranging the stuff in the tray. I didn’t waste much time in sitting up and joining him.
“Ain’t you going to work today?” I asked between mouthfuls of the delicious eggs.
“I will after I finish breakfast with my new new chick.” He said giving me a wink. Gosh! The butterflies in my stomach started flying in perfect formation as my heart skipped a beat and I couldn’t help but smile shyly.
“I love you Dwayne.” I declared for the very first time ever.
“I love you too Doll.” He responded and brought his face closer for a kiss which I didn’t hesitate to comply to.
In a matter of minutes, we finished breakfast and Dwayne cleared the table before heading back to his place to get ready for work.
I stood there before my mirror smiling sheepishly as thoughts of all we did last night kept replaying in my head. I can’t believe I just asked a guy out for the first time ever. I have a boyfriend after about six years alone. Darn!

“So did you get to tell him last night?” Erica asked as I returned to the kitchen where she was sitting with the boiling hot box of pizza which the delivery man just dropped by.
“Well yeah I did.” I replied a little bit passively as I was occupied with the pizza which I was trying to serve.
“Be serious for once B.” Erica said snatching a slice of pizza from the box.
“I’m serious. I asked him out, he accepted and we even went as far as doing the nasty.” I explained sticking my tongue out at the last part.
“What?” She finally said after a long loud yell.
“Would you just calm down. You’re gonna make my neighbors report me for noise disturbances.” I whisper yelled and she covered her mouth with both hands.
“Sorry B. You’re fierce bebé! How’d you go about it?” She inquired and I filled her in on every single detail.
A few minutes after Erica had left, I called Dwayne but he wasn’t picking up so I decided to drop by at his workshop before taking a stop at the grocery store so I could get some stuff for dinner.
When I got there, he wasn’t in and the shop was locked too. I tried calling him again but he wasn’t still picking up so I decided to go to the grocery store and get items for dinner instead. I was pretty worried about his whereabouts plus this isn’t the first time this is happening. Could it be that his mom is sick again?
UNKNOWN:
Today I’m supposed to finalize the talks of our partnership deal with Meyer which I’ve not been able to come to terms with the fact that my mum is seriously pushing this deal.
I instructed my security guard who was sitting in the front seat of the car with the driver to do some research and dig up dirt on Meyer for me. Whatever it takes, I’m not going to let him control my father’s company.
Also, I needed to get in touch with my haughty younger sister Nicole. She has a whooping twenty percent of the company’s shares. If she will agree to sell those shares to me, I’m going to have the upper hand in this matter. The foolish girl was not picking up. I’ll call her later.
For the sake of this matter, I’mma need to get back in good terms with Diane. Hopefully, she could tell me something that I need to know about her dad’s dirty dealings.
“Hey baby girl.” I greeted as soon as the call connected.
“Baby why are you doing this to me? You haven’t been taking my calls or replying back to my text messages. Where are you?” Diane bemoaned on the other end of the phone.
“I’m sorry about my behavior babe. Let’s meet at my place in an hour or so. I’ve missed you.” I said bluntly and hung up the phone before dipping my hands in my pocket to confirm if the contraceptives were still intact. I need to get my hands dirty if I wanna win this.
