“Thanks for the drive.” Lizzy said as soon as Doctor John pulled up in front of her apartment.

“Its nothing.” John said looking at her.

“Okay. Bye.” Lizzy said and made to open the car door when John pulled her back to himself and without thinking , pulled her into a hug right in his car.

Lizzy was shocked and made to pulled back from the hug but John was stronger. He pulled her more closer to himself.

“Stay still, okay?” John whispered into her ears.

Lizzy had to relent. She stayed still in his arm and that was when her nose caught the smell of his cologne.

After some minutes, he pulled back from the hug and they both stared at each other without saying a word.

“You did this because you gave me a ride?” Lizzy asked.

John averted his eyes from her l-ips before answering.

“No. I’ve always wanted to do this.” John answered.

He took her hands in his not breaking the stares. At the touch of John’s hand on her hands, Lizzy felt a tingling s-nsation but her stubbornness won’t allow her to notice.

“I…Lizzy…can we be friends?” John asked.

“No. I don’t need your friendsh¡p. Keep it for me in your pocket. if it’s about the fact that you took me home, I’d pay you. Name your price.” Lizzy said.

“Really? are you sure you can pay me?” John asked.

“Of course. Name it.”

“Promise me you’re gonna pay me.”

“I promise…I’m gonna pay you if that would make you keep your friendsh¡p.”

“Fine. I knew you as someone that don’t go back on your word. Are you promising me for real?’ John asked.

“Of course …I promise to pay you for the drive right away and if I don’t… I’d drive you around for two months.” Lizzy said without thinking.

“Good!” John smiled.

“Your damn price!’ Lizzy asked raising her voice.

“My price for taking you here is…”

Jenny mo-ned loudly into Emmanuel’s mouth as she pulled him more closer to herself wanting more of him.

She slipped her hands underneath and fondled with his belt trying to unbuckled it.

Emmanuel got it immediately and pulled up a little for her to get rid of the trouser. He pulled off his suit and shirt as he swung it away. Jenny wasted no time as she got rid of it as well as his briefs leaving him unclad.

“Wow…you’re so huge baby.” She gasped after seeing Emmanuel’s d*ck.

Emmanuel didn’t respond as he pushed her to bed and s-cked the hell out of her b**bs. While s-cking on the left, he was squeezing on the right.

Jenny mo-ned out his name which prompted and urged him to do more.

“Oh…yeah. Right there baby!”

“S-ck me more!”

She mo-ned in ecstasy and fantasy.

Emmanuel trailed the k-ss from the middle of her b**bs down to her navel as well as her power house.

He s-cked her down there for some minutes before finger f**king her with three of his fingers.

“Ouch! Emmanuel go on. Go on!. I love you. Oh yeah. Don’t stop!” Jenny scre-med.

Emmanuel continued fingering her as Jenny mo-ned loudly.

****

Cindy came out of shower with a towel around her body. She wondered what’s taking Emmanuel so long.

She checked the time for the uptenth time ever since she came into the room.

“What’s happening to him?” She asked himself as she made to call him.

But he didn’t pick it. It rang severally but no one picked which got her more worried.

***

Emmanuel made to stop what’s he’s doing when his phone rang and his senses suddenly told him he’s married and he’s supposed to be with his wife not this silly slut he’s with right now but Jenny stopped him from leaving.

“F*ck me already!” she mo-ned sed-ctively wrapping her hands around his neck.

Like someone possessed,

“Might be my wife calling.” He said.

“She can wait. Come on fu*k me already. I want you in,side of me.” Jenny said crashing her l-ips on his.

Emmanuel Immediately forgot about Cindy the instant Jenny’s l-ips met his.

He wasted no time afterwards, as he slide his member into Jenny’s p*s*y.

“Oh my f*cking life!” Jenny mo-ned taking in her lower l-ips as she enjoyed the feels she’s getting from Emmanuel’s d*ck.

“Oh…Jen!” Emmanuel gro-ned.

he continued slamming real hærd into her while she didn’t hesitated in mo-ning sweetly and scre-ming as Emmanuel did justice to her pus*y.

***

George got home and met Alice in the sitting room with her eyes on her phone.

“I’m back.” George said.

“Good for you.” Alice answered.

George took his seat adjacent her.

Lately, she has stopped crying and has been sitting around George now but not like she have interest in him anyways.

And George has quit drinking and smoking too all because Alice accused him and drinking, smoking and vomiting all over the sitting area.

the disappointment that shown in Alice’s eyes were enough to make George repent.

As well as the statement she made.

“Really? You’re smoking and drinking, right? And you expect me to give someone like you a second chance. Wait, even if I give you the second chance, won’t you use it to drink yourself to stupor? No wonder I so much love and crave for Samuel so badly. Why would I leave such a gentle man with no abusive characters in his hand and settle for you….a smoker and a drunkard! I hate you.” was what Alice spat that day.

And it seems to work on George as he quit drinking immediately.

“Alice…you didn’t ask if I see…” George couldn’t finish his statement when Alice interrupted him.

“Samuel…right? You don’t need to tell me and I don’t need to ask you either.” Alice snapped.

“Okay, fine.” George said breathing out heavily.

Alice eyed him angrily before concentrating back on her phone.

She knew about the wedding and watched everything that took place in the church and reception . a part of her was glad Cindy’s married.

“At least, Samuel would get rid of the feelings he might be having for her which would enable her to have access to his heart again.” She thought.

They both sat in silent.

****

Philip’s headache was getting more intense and worse each passing seconds.

“I have no choice than to call the doctor.” The driver said.

Philip didn’t answered or do anything as he whimpered in pains. His eyes were teary and red like someone that took cannabis. And his body temperature has gone out of bad to worse.

Even staying beside him without touching him, the temperature would still be felt.

The driver dialed the family doctor’s number and told him to come over to treat Philip.

The call ended after the doctor promised to be there in less than ten minutes.

“Sorry boss.” The driver said settling on the sofa in the room.

***

Cindy was more worried when Emmanuel didn’t pick her countless calls .

“Jenny? He has been with Jenny for almost an hour now doing what in particular? Or is it more than just to sign some random papers?” She wondered.

She had wore a red with a white dot colour pajamas and sat on the bed resting her back with a pillow.

“Where would I go to if I don’t wanna embarrass myself. People will be like a new wedded wife looking for her husband on their wedding night. Despite our names and family figure…I wouldn’t wanna do that!” She thought .

Right now, all what she needed and craved for is a m-ssage on her body but who’s gonna do that for her?

Her mind went to Samuel. She wondered why he left so early after reading his message minutes ago.

A lot of message were lying in her inbox waiting to be read. But she got no time for that now. All what she’s thinking about is Emmanuel.

“Where could he have went to? I can’t possibly go down there and start asking of him. It’d look so weird ! And now, it’s an hour already!” She said staring at his picture of her phone.

She now made him her phone wallpaper.

***

“He would be fine after he wakes up.” The doctor, doctor Micheal said after attending to Philip and sedated him..

“Good. Thanks doctor.” The driver said.

The doctor left afterwards and the driver also vacated the room for Philip to rest very well without being disturbed.

“Today was superb!” Mrs Jenny exclaimed sitting on a sofa in the sitting room.

“Yes ma’am. You are very right!” Eva said.

She was in the living room too as well as Dammie but it seems Dammie wasn’t interested in whatever they’re saying that moment.

She look so restless as she stared at her phone without blinking.

“Dammie?’ Mrs Jenny called but no response.

“Dammie?’ She called again.

“Eva…touch her.” Mrs Jenny said and Eva obliged.

At the touch of Eva’s hand on Dammie’s arm, she scre-med giving her a dirty slap.

“What the hell? Why are you touching me with that filthy hands of yours?” Dammie yelled.

“Stop yelling at her, you spoilt brat. why are you so lost in thought?” Mrs Jenny asked.

“None of your business mum. I can think anything I want with my head. It’s my head after all.” Dammie said.

“Dammie!! Do you realized you’re talking to me?” Mrs Jenny asked shocked at the manners which Dammie’s responding to her

“Of course. But warn this little shit here. Never in her life would she touch me or my things again in this house or she should be ready to leave this house.” Dammie ranted.

Mrs Jenny laughed while Eva watched in total amusement.

“Do you still remember this girl washed your clothes and still cooks for you?”

“That’s why I want her leave. You can always hire a new one that would be more useful to me than this piece of cake here.” Dammie said proudly.

“Stop this your arrogance life. It’d lead you to your doom. Are you the one paying her salary? Don’t ever spit that nonsense out of your mouth again, understand?’

“Whatever mum.'” Dammie shouted and went out of the house.

“Dammie…????!!” Mrs Jenny shouted behind her but she didn’t answer.

“Sorry about that ma’am.” Eva apologized and left to her room.

“Thanks ” Mrs Jenny muttered.

“Dammie….!” She muttered silently.

***

“Hmm….Dammie, the company I applied for last two weeks called me for interview on Monday.” George broke the silent.

Alice looked up swiftly at him and she had no idea when a smile escaped the corner of her lip.

George’s eyes w¡dened!

“Alice? Alice you just smiled.” He gushed.

He haven’t seen her smile in years and now she just did.

Alice frowned her face.

“Congrats.” She said looking away.

“Alice…ain’t you happy for me?” George teased.

“What do you want me to say?” She half yelled.

“Sorry…” George said.

Alice hissed at him and slide her feet into her blue flip flop then left the sitting area to her room.

She slammed the door and locked it behind.

“Alice…” George called behind her but Alice was faster to close the door.

“I’m sorry, okay? I don’t mean to make you angry. I’m sorry, alright?” George apologized but heard nothing from Alice.

He walked into his room and slept with heavy sadness in his heart.

“Alice…just give me this last chance. I promise to use it wisely. I love you.” He muttered and took his phone.

He clicked on the gallery and started staring at her pictures- both old and new ones.

Samuel was on his bed watching Cindy’s wedding video. He was in smile as he watched.

The video finally came to an end and he breathed out loudly.

“Gosh… Cindy would still be under Emmanuel by now….being a V-rgin, she wouldn’t let go easily.” Samuel said laughing at his word.

“Well…I’m happy for her.” She said.

“Of course, you should be happy for her.” Mrs Sophia butted in coming in,side his room.

“Mom. I thought you were asleep. Did I woke you up?” Samuel asked sitting up in bed.

“No. I wasn’t sleeping. I have it in mind to come here to you before.” Mrs Sophia said sitting down on the bed with him.

“What’s wrong mum?” Samuel asked.

“Everything my dear!”

“What? How?” Samuel asked

“Cindy’s married and in nine months time, she’d be celebrating a child. Samuel when exactly are you gonna forgive Alice?”

“Mom! Mum! Stop it already mum. I said I’m done with Alice. I can never go back to her. She’s nothing but an empty barrel. She can’t give birth mum!” Samuel said raising his voice.

“But, you are a doctor…you should know that every problem has its own solution.”

“But not like her own problem. Even if it has any solution…I can’t marry her again. For her to keep such away from me for years, then She’s capable of killing me.” Samuel said.

“No Samuel. She can’t do that.”

“Enough! Mum. I don’t wanna talk about it again. Okay? I’m gonna get marry when I’m ready. You cannot push me. I need my time.” Samuel said and laid down on his bed covering himself with the duvet up to his head.

Mrs Sophia watched him and sighed loudly before leaving his room.

“What does he mean by that?” Lizzy wondered.

She was in her room after checking up on Ann. She made sure she’s asleep.

The scene in John’s car earlier played in her mind again.

“Your damn price!’ Lizzy asked raising her voice.

“My price for taking you here is….be my fiancee for 30days.” John said.

Lizzy looked at him amusedly before resulting into a laughter. She laughed for some minutes before stopping.

“What do just said?” she asked to be sure.

“be my fiancee for 30days.” He repeated .

“what do you mean be your fiancee for 30days. Do I look like I’m in need of a relationsh¡p? You know…name a price….not this.’ Lizzy said.

“I’m the only male child of my parents. I have a little sister who schooled abroad. My dad died at a very tender age and mum never remarry. She took care of us alone. Lately, she’s been disturbing me to bring her a wife so she could see her grandchild before dying. I have no girlfriend because I’m too busy with work to notice any lady. But when I got to know how clingy you were with doctor Bassey…I felt something that attached me to you. And you would be first lady I’m telling my family stuffs.” John paused to see her reaction.

“I’m not interested, okay?’ Lizzy said.

“My mum has been sick for the past three months all because I failed to bring her a wife!’ John said.

“What?” Lizzy shouted.

“Sick? Treat her now. why are you a doctor then?” Lizzy said with concern.

“I’ve treated her with everything I know of. But she’s not responding to treatment. all what she kept saying that for me to bring her a wife.” John said.

“Is that where I come in?” Lizzy asked.

“Yeah. Please…help save my mum. I will pay you if that’d make you act like my fiancee.” John said.

“I don’t need your money. I’m sorry. I won’t be able to do that.” Lizzy said.

“We are trained to save, Lizzy.” John said.

“But not in that kind of situation. Bring her to the hospital, I can save her there.” Lizzy said.

“You can’t save only in the hospital. We are just trained to save anywhere.” John said.

“I can’t.” lizzy insisted.

“Okay…then drive me around for two months.” John said.

“What!” Lizzy scre-med.

“You said that yourself. Remember?” John said.

“True. But I was joking.”

“no you weren’t. be my fiancee for thirty days or drive me around for two months.” John said as he made to drive away.

Lizzy stared at him without saying word. She picked her bag and opened the car door.

John zoomed away after she closed it back.

Lizzy stood on a s₱0t wondering.
★★

“What do I do now? Ann is there. I need to take care of her.” Lizzy muttered tossing around in bed.

“What was I thinking when I said I’m gonna drive him around for two month.? was I crazy then? Yes…i was crazy when I said that.” Lizzy said.

Cindy was visibly shaking where she was seated. She was now sitting on the white couch in the room.

Her phone in hand with Emmanuel’s whereabout in her head.

A tears escaped her eyes as she thought about how this night finally went.

“A bad wedding night. I thought couples say…wedding nights are always awesome and last long in one’s memory. Mine wasn’t awesome at all but of course, it’d last long in my memory. that my husband went to sign just a paper for the past two hours and hasn’t returned since then. Oh! What a wedding night!” Cindy exclaimed in total sadness as the tears she has been keeping to her body finally came out of her eyes like a running tap.

“Oh…Emmanuel. This wasn’t what you promised me.” She said as she stood up from her seat and started pacing around the room.

“Oh…Emmanuel…what the hell is happening to you! Where are you?” she yelled.

“I’m here.” Emmanuel said from the door.

Cindy turned around and truthfully, he was there gently closing the door as he walked to her.

“I’m sorry.”

“Sorry….for almost three hours all because of a paper?” She asked.

“It wasn’t a paper alone. I did an online interview with them.”

*why didn’t you called me or picked my calls too?”

“I thought it’s gonna be a brief interview but ….you know. I’m just sorry ”

“Fine.” Cindy said perceiving some kind of smell from him.

“can I get at least a k-ss if you’ve truly forgive me?”

“Just let me be.” Cindy said.

“Please…” He pleaded

“Okay fine.” She rolled her eyes.

Emmanuel smiled and pulled her closer as he placed his l-ips on hers.

Some seconds into the k-ss… Cindy stopped the k-ss.

“Did you k-ssed someone?” She asked bluntly.

“Come on don’t know ridiculous. This isn’t what you taste like”.

“Really?’

“Yeah..goodnight.” Cindy Said and walked to the bed.

“Babe..” Emmanuel called.

Cindy didn’t respond as she laid on the bed with different thought in her head.

“Emmanuel… You are playing smart with me. You k-ssed Jenny. Meaning…for the past three hours. Something is going on…and it must be s’x!” Cindy thought and her eyes w¡dened at the thought.

“Emmanuel!” She shouted..

“Babe…what happened?”

“Jenny…you both.. never mind.” She said and Laid back on the bed.

“I don’t wanna believe it. Don’t worry…I’m good at waiting. I’d wait for everything to be revealed. You can’t act smart with me. I knew this gonna happen.” Cindy thought.

“Are you okay?”

No response.

“Babe…hope you’ve eaten?”

No response.

“I’m sorry okay?”

No response.

He ruffled his hair and cursed Jenny under his breath.

“Are we not doing anything tonight?” He asked again.

He got no response. he knew Cindy’s smart and intelligent. But he decided not to pester her to avoid d troubles.

He entered the bathroom afterwards.
