"I want to dance," Dara whispered in his arms, looking down as he continued petting her hair, she pulled away from him and looked at him.

"I want to dance," she repeated. "Dance? Isn't your feet hitting from the heels you wore all day?" he asked looking down at her feet worriedly.

Dara shook her head, "I am fine Kelvin, I really want to dance, let us dance tonight! Find something slow, soulful, sweet, romantic!"

He chuckled as she tried to pull himself up, he shrugged, "if you say you want to dance, then we will dance," Kelvin said and pulled out his phone. He pulled up Spotify and connected it to the automatic speaker in the house.

She smiled as she heard the song come on, she hmmed the sound of 'until I found you by Stephen Sanchez' he pulled her back into his arm and they started twirling around.

She rested her head on his chest, she could hear his heartbeat rhythmically as their steps fell in sync. She felt exported to another world, a world of music. Outside every problem they had. Outside the stress and trauma, they had gone through, they moved around the living room, dancing from song to song, laughing and giggling. Happiness and joy came even when it felt hopeless.

She raised her head to stare at him as they twirled again, she tiptoed and gave him a short kiss, and he almost gasp at her. She smiled sheepishly at him, he pulled her chin up and smashed his lips against hers. Her heart almost flew from her chest into her mouth. He was a good kisser, which had been established beforehand.

One hand held her back, and he titled her to give him more access to her, he sucked her lower lips, feeling electricity and desire run through him. The way she felt against him, the way her large ample breast crushed his chest, God she was the epitome of his fantasy and desire.

"I have missed you so much Dara, everything about you," he perked her again. She hugged him tightly again.

"I can of believe Stephanie would do that to her son!" Nifemi shook her head, reapplying her lip gloss. Dara was resting on the edge of the tied toilet of tarkwa bay. She held herself feeling exhausted, "and the funniest thing is that Kelson interrupted us while we were leaving to tell us how he had no part in Stephanie's part and how he was innocent."

Nifemi shook her rolling her head, "of course he would say that, that boy could not take any sort of accountability, the apple does not fall far from the tree though," she said not surprised.

"She said I am running his life, that she is punishing me because of him, she was going to slap me yesterday but Kelvin intervened and warned her vehemently not to come near me or Layo," Nifemi turned to her and smiled, "that nice, it not easy having to deal with someone like Stephanie and now that Kelvin is on your side everything is A-okay."

"Is it? Yesterday it was the Nike deal, God knows that she will try to pull tomorrow," Dara said looking down wordlessly, she was really worried about Kelvin and how everything was going with him. She did not want to be the cause of his downfall, no matter how much he said he was fine.

Nifemi smirked, "I might have an idea that would pepper Stephanie's body!" Dara frowned.

"Dara! What did you do?" Dara smiled as soon as Kelvim entered, Dara walked toward him and gave him a perk on her lips, he pulled her back and pressed his lips to hers deepening the kiss.

He pulled away from her anger blazing from his eyes, "what did you do? Why did you go to the Nike chairman?" Dara looked away, knowing what he was saying.

"No!" he commanded refusing to let her go, "I was trying to help you, which I eventually did, you are doing the deal now, is that not what you wanted?"

"Not if it going to put you in harm's way! Dara my mother would see you as a threat and would everything to try and sabotage you!" he finally let her go allowing her to pull away from him. She took the cup of juice from the table.
