Talk To Me

44. Two sides to the coin

A few hours earlier, Swalha had called to find out how Kind had spent his birthday. Luckily, Wale had gone out briefly to prepare for their tour of the day and Kind knew her only reason for doing that was because she didn't want to go running again with him. Either way, he was too exhausted to work out today since he'd been up all night dominating their sexual routine.

"Flowers then sex... How romantic of Wale. I'm surprised she remembered your birthday. She called Todo and me informing us not to give you our best wishes post your birthday."

"She hid my phone too and turned it off so I couldn't see messages from anyone else either including my parents and uncle Frank. You know her well Swalha." Kind hesitated before asking, "Have you spoken to her lately though? She can be a little distracted sometimes, I'm guessing it's because of the pregnancy issue with Cherry since her uncle's issue had already been sorted out."

"No K. You know how secretive Wale can be plus if she hasn't mentioned anything to you, she wouldn't have to anyone else, though...I'm surprised you have such thoughts in mind. Aren't you supposed to be enjoying your vacation? Stop worrying about such things and tell me if she finally got her wish for you to officially be her boyfriend!"

Kind laughed at Swalha's impatience. He knew there was no way they would have a conversation without mentioning his relationship with Wale. She had been their biggest supporter and since he and Wale confessed to each other, Swalha could never contain her nosey excitement. "She got her wish last night though not in the way you think. It felt good to be in control...for a while before she tried to take over."

"Oh, my word K I'm so glad! I'm getting goosebumps with excitement just glad you get to be with her like this especially the night of your birthday! You've waited for this for so long...who would have known you and Wale will ever be like this? If you two ever break up, I'll die heartbroken!"

Kind couldn't help feeling so happy. He wished Swalha to always remain like this, "I never thought I'd ever get to be like this too with her. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and look at her sleeping to ensure this is real. If it's a dream, I don't ever want to wake up from it."

"You can say that again K. I can't wait to see you next week. Todo and I will come to pick you two up at the airport. I miss you so much K... and make sure to update me on all the details of your time together because I have some juicy story about myself too!"

"You had better start talking now Swalha. Knowing you, it has to be someone new you're dating, so how good-looking is he?"

"You'd be surprised who was the matchmaker, but I'll fill you in on the details later. All I know is we went out on a couple of dates and what a nice gentleman he was K! I'm taking my time before we get physical this time around, however so far, I've scanned him with my perverted eyes and I can tell you, I like what I see!"

"I trust your tastes so far. You chose Todo for me after all!"

"And you decided to date Wale whom might I add is not my taste at all! Honestly, you've never liked obsessive women but somehow, you couldn't shake her off."

"The heart wants what it wants ...though I'm afraid we are not official yet. She hasn't let me have peace with that dating thing and you know my fears concerning baby mama issues..."

"K, this is Wale, the girl you've always dreamed of! In retrospect, you've been through this a number of times, so I can't advise you to do something I wouldn't do myself. Despite that, I can confidently assure you that when it comes to you, Wale has a strong conviction."

"Yea, I don't doubt what she feels now. My fear comes from what she will feel later, especially when she wants to have more children. Cherry is part of her life now and you know, Wale has always wanted to have a big family since she was an only child."
