EPISODE 16
“Can you please tell me who the person is?”
.
“Sorry sir, that’s a top priority secret and there is a need to secure the identity of our clients.”
The voice said.
.
“Just name your price, I would pay you, just tell me who it is.”
Said Mr. Fox.
.
“Well sorry sir, that’s against our code.”
Said the voice putting an end to the call.
.
They were all stupified, as the wh0le stuff really getting more complicated and nerve catching, like a hide and seek game.
.
As they themselves, felt like they were in control, now looked more like novices in the grand scheme of things.
.
They overlooked the inconvenience for the time being as they worked towards the next plan, as they knew that no matter what the wh0le thing would be unraveled, it only depends on time or so they taught.
.
.
Sylvia, was in her room in the campus thinking of Charles, it has been a while since they last spoke, and he hadn’t called her and she herself couldn’t lower her pride to call him.
.
She was still lost in thought when a call came in and she looked over joyed when she saw the caller.
.
Just as you guessed, it was Charles.
.
📲Hello dear.”
Charles said Through the other end of the line.
.
📲Hiiiii”
She replied in a low voice.
.
📲It has been a while, too bad of me, I couldn’t call to check on a friend, I was too preoccupied.”
Charles apologized.
.
📲Ohhhhhh!! it’s nothing. no need to apologize I understand (As if she understood)”
She said smiling but not showing it by the way she spoke.
.
📲Are you busy? can I come over so we could discuss?”
Charles requested.
.
📲Yeah yeah!!! I’m free.”
She said doing little to hide her excitement .
.
They spoke for a while and the call ended, as she got ready for his visit .
.
.
Charles on his own immediately made a fast visit to barbing salon for a new haircut 💇 and he came back took fresh bath, taking his time to look good.
.
Charles rode his sports car 🚗 as he came to a halt a few distance outside Sylvia’s house, as he was busy looking around.
.
He saw Sylvia coming out from her house in a bum shot and a singlet like top, holding the arm of of a middle aged man as they chatted happily while walking to his car, with bodyguards following them both, while they chatted happily and Sylvia could be seen giggling from time to time.
.
The man was Mr. Smith her father.
.
Charles was really confused as he wondered at the relationsh¡p between them both. Is her her father? He asked himself but couldn’t find an answer or is he her sugar daddy, like what some university ladies normally do, but he just pushed it all at the back of his mind, as he would get to know if he really wanted to as his sources were of course endless.
.
He watched as she pecked him and he entered his car and drove of with his guards. He was a bit jealous seeing her peck him as he yet didn’t know their relationsh¡p status.
.
He could see that Sylvia was impatient as If waiting for someone and he couldn’t help but smile before hopping down from his car, with a cellophane bag probably a package for her. (He never told me)
.
Immediately she saw him, she smiled brilliantly as her beautiful face looked breath taking at her deep smile, as she approached him.
.
Charles equally smiled back and upon getting close he opened his arms wide for a hug and she shyly went into his arms in a hug, pulling out he gently pecked 💋 her in both cheeks and her fair face turned bright red.
..
“How have you been doing dear? ”
Charles asked stretching out his arms which she grabbed and they walked into her flat, while they chatted.
In her room Charles had made himself comfortable and they had discussed equally laughing at some jokes they made or some funny talks.
.
Charles cracked his voice and said.
.
“Sylvia I came for you to advise me.”
Charles said looking at her. And she nodded for him to go ahead.
.
“I have someone, I love and have feelings for, but I’m a kind of confused on how to approach her on how I feel, because I don’t know if she really loves me the way I do. And you are a woman and understand more about yourselves, I know you can advise me on what to do about her.”
Charles said calmly as he glanced at her countenance to know her reaction.
.
Her expression changed as if she was holding back tears, she looked sad, hurt, jealous and disappointed, but she hid it immediately and smiled sadly before saying.
.
“Why not give it a try, tell her how you feel, it might be a pleasant surprise for you.”
She said shrugging, while placing her hands on her temple.
.
“Sylv, you are that woman you are that woman that I love, have been looking for ways to tell you but………………. ”
He was still about to continue before Sylvia interrupted him with an unexpected k-ss, which sent him immobile temporarily as if his brain was formatted.
.
“I love you too Charles, have been waiting for the day you would be able to man up and tell me how you feel about me. ”
She said as she placed her head on his shoulder while gently moving her hands over his chest.
