FATE

31 - Wild desires.

Monday morning came by fast. If you ask me I'd choose Monday before over other days beside of how fast it was. I had plans for today: visiting my boyfriend.

I yawned as I itched my eyes from tiredness because I  was just waking up.

My phone rang and I picked it up from the nightstand. It was Nancy's picture on my phone so I picked the call and put it on speaker.

"Hello babe. "I yawned as I applied paste in my brush.

I took a quick glance at myself in the mirror before me and I wsd a complete mess. But I can assure you that in two hours time a transformation would have taken place.

"How far you and Lemuel?"

Again with that serious tone and the gossip.

"I said yes. So we are dating."

"Ehen, kita ka ibiara." (Now you're talking).

I chuckled and began to brush my teeth.

"I broke up with Tony."

I spat out the mixture in my mouth immediately.

"Why would you do that?" I dead panned keeping my hands on the sink.

Nancy and Tony looked serious.

"Abeg, the guy is not serious. I knew from the start the relationship had no future but I was doing it for the money. I mean he's a cheat I know that but rubbing it in my face is too much. "

Wow,  I sighed.

It's too early for all this wahala.

"I'm so sorry, I had no idea."

She hissed. "I was the one who dumped him because he was of no use to me."

"I know but don't you feel bad. You slept with that guy..."

"Lilly I've slept with so many guys." She cut me off in low voice.

What kind of mind has she got?

"I know it's not something to be proud of but girl it's not like I planned it."

"Yeah." I agreed and bit my lower lip

"Alright bye."

"Ok, we'll see."

*******
My plan on going to Lemuel's office to give him a surprise visit was in progress. It was too bored at home.

You know when you have a wardrobe full of clothes and yet you can't find one suitable cloth. That's the situation I'm in right now.

I smiled mischeviously when an idea swept through my mind. A really bad and good idea. Lemuel is a workaholic and would not pay attention to me at work so the way  yo get his attention is; seduction. Every man's weakness.

God have mercy on your child.

I chose red. It is the colour of emotions; love, power, danger and desire. I picked the perfect jacket. It was a really sharp red. A button up coat that stopped right above my knee and then something caught my eye. A black leather strapless mini gown. As I ran my hands through the cloth I couldn't help but imagine how I would execute my plan.

I walked over to my rack and I found  the perfect shoes. Black silleto knee high boots. I didn't need a purse but I chose one anyways, a small black bag with glittering hand.

My makeup was done carefully by me. I didn't forget the important details. I made sure it was really heavy with my usual Smokey eyes while my lips were coated in wine red lipstick. My hair was packed neatly in a high ponytail without leaving out a strand. I added some finishing touches by using my edge control and hair gel.
