Chapter 4
I shook my head. I shouldn't imagine his nudity
"Emma, He suddenly called. l swallowed.
why is he calling me from the bathroom?
" I can't find any towel in here, can you help me with one?
Holy moly!
I walked into the bathroom connected to my bedroom.
No way am I giving him my own towel.
what if they end up having his scent.
I quickly searched for a new towel and luckily I found one.
why the hell I my freaking out?
I'm a cool and collective woman.
I'm just going to stretch out the towel to him with my eyes closed.
I wonder how big he is.
No, don't wonder anything, Emma
compute your self girl...
I walked up to the bathroom and opened the door a little. looking sideways, I stretched out the towel to him.
thanks "
As soon as he reached for it, I hurriedly walked away.
When he left, I thought I would actually feel less bothered but I still felt hot all over.
jeez!
I really need to get laid.
At lunch hours, the following day, Sarah walked into my office, obviously for our girls jests and gossip, but I was on a call with my mom and as usual, she was nagging me about how I should stop being picky about men and settle down soon.
My Mom came from a very rich background, though she lost both parents at a young age, while my Dad came from a low background, but according to her, they were so much in love with each other or so she thought.
she let him have access to her wealth. not knowing he was only in for the money and really helped her in Squandering her inheritance .
She thought he was only spending it on drinks and material things but little did she know that he was spending it on women too.
she found out too late and before she could even remove his name from continuing getting access to her money, she had lost too much already, when he realized that she was running low on cash, he left us.....
I was only seven years old.
My Mom always advise me not to love a man more than I love myself.
And that hardened my resolve, I have tried to date a few guys, but all was just there... and I couldn't bring my self to like, talk more of love them.
Maybe am being too high profile but I have not really find a perfect man I want for my self, that's why I made that list...
so I met a man who would never hurt me...
Now My mom is the one on my throat telling me that am taking so much of my time and it's enough, that I should give love a chance.
I'm ready to give love a chance....
I'm just waiting for Henry to ask me out.
After assuming my mom that I'll introduce her to my boyfriend soon I hung up.
"Emma, you really need to take your mom's talk seriously and find a good guy for your self.
Great!
Another sermon...
" don't you get bored at times? she asked.
Honestly, I do.
Almost all my friends are married or are in a serious relationship, sometimes I feel jealous.
I shook my head.
I'm going a partner soon...
"Wel,l I think Henry fets into what I need in a man "
She frowned" you still have that stupid list?
she has seen my list a couple of times.
"Yes and it's not stupid, it's just my guide in making sure that I get the right guy.
" And what makes you so sure that Henry is the right man for you, how well do you know him?
Just because he's rich doesn't mean he can treat you right.
Sarah lean against the wall staring at me,squarely...
well...even if he doesn't fit in all my expectations, my Mom always say whenever I found a good man and he wants a relationship with me, I should first of all date him and observe him,
if we fight like a married couple, talk like best friends,flirt like first lovers, protect and care for each other,then it's meant to be.
Sarah smiled and said "you can't find a man who would fit perfectly into that list except you can mold him up yourself "
I looked up at her" Sarah,even if he doesn't fit all my qualities 90% is okay"
She slung me an exasperated look.
Is Saturday and I'm home...
Dave had started painting the walls inside my house. I stayed in my bedroom most of the time because I'm annoyed that I get this sexual desire each time I see him.
of all the people.... Why am I getting hot and bothered by a painter?
By evening, I had to come out and watch my favorite program, I noticed he was done and he was having his bath again.
I had put the towel in there so he wouldn't have to call me again.
Good evening, Emma he said walking in.
Evening, I replied without even looking at him.
I won't be coming to work tomorrow being Sunday cos I don't work on Sundays" he informed me.
"Alright"
oh my! you're feeling up this program too?
I had to stare at him,if am to be really honest.
He is good looking.
"I thought men didn't like romantic programs
He just smiled.
Jeez! he had dimples, they made him look so cute
" so what do men like then "He sneered.
" Action and horror movie "
He helped himself into a couch and placed his phone on the table.
" Well, yeah I love those genres a lot but I'm also a fan of Telemundo.
those women are Smoky hot "
I had to quickly stop my self from asking" what about me " Emma,do you really need a painter to tell you're hot.
And just like that we started talking about the program....
they parts we love most, the most emotional and thrilling moments and also each character.
it felt refreshing to just sit here.... laugh and gist with a man....
and something highly humiliating happened.
he cracked a joke and I laughed so hard that I broke wind.
it was not loud so I prayed that he doesn't perceive anything, but then his nose twitched and he broke into laughter.
"that wasn't me" I denied,flatly.
"it wasn't me neither and now it makes me think" it's the wall" he joked...
I snickered. " shut up "
I didn't know you can fart, Emma.
I frowned at him." since you're determined to tease me with it, don't you do too. I am only human.
it's just that there's a way some people act that makes you wonder if they even go to the toilet.
I wonder what you look like when you're setting on the water closet "he said laughing.
I tossed a throw pillow at him, I'm laughing my eyes out and I can't believe we're talking about something like this.
My laughter halted when I cought him staring at me. intently.....
You're so beautiful, Emma" He bit out.
My face flamed. I know I'm beautiful but the way he said it did things to my body.
He shook his head and stood up.
"it's getting late, I should better start leaving now"
the problem was I didn't want him to leave.
My lust got hold of me....
I stood up and closed the distance between us.
I pulled his face down and kissed him..
