Chapter Twenty Two

KAREEM'S POV

Five days, five days of nothing but agonizing torture, cold showers and erotic dreams. I almost regretted talking Diana into sharing a room but waking up to her adorable face buried into the pillows made it all worth it. Diana didn't even have to try and seduce me, it just happened. Anytime she wore her short dresses and skirts, when I saw her in a bikini or when her bare legs brushed against mine in bed, I was done for. As much as I was in agony from not getting any relief, those five days had been pretty great.

We had been to as many places as we could fit into our limited days and we were having a blast. We had been to Haller park, scuba diving at Mombasa Marine park, visited most of the main beaches and went to Simba Hills National reserve.

For our last day we had decided to visit Wasini Island for their beautiful and active Marine life. We were hopeful we'd see some turtles, dolphins and humpback whales amongst a few others.

"Did you pay for the scuba diving package?"Diana asked me as we walked towards the boat.

"I thought you were gonna pay."I replied and she immediately stopped in her tracks.

"Kareem this better be you messing with me right now."Diana scolded unamused by my joke.

"I'm not joking, I thought you were going to pay so I didn't."I said with a straight face.

"Like seriously of all times you decided not to pay it has to be today and you don't even bother to tell me about it."Diana expressed looking very frustrated.

She started walking away from the boat and me.

"Where are you going?"I yelled after her.

"To pay before the boat leaves, what else?"Diana retorted.

Before she could get too far, I snatched her back by wrapping my arms around her wrists waist and stopping her.

"Kareem let me go before the boat leaves without us."Diana demanded but I held on.

"I was joking, I already paid."I informed her.

Diana stopped all movement and before I could understand what was going on she stomped on my foot hard and I was forced to let her go.

"Fuck, what was that for?" I cried hoping around on one foot in pain.

"For lying to me."She replied before turning around and walking towards the boat.

I limped towards her and caught up to her before she could get too far.

"Cupcake I'm sorry, I was just messing with you."I apologized.

She didn't acknowledge me just kept walking. The pain in my leg had subsided already so I blocked her path before she side stepped me again. Diana crossed her hands against her chest looking up at me with a raised eyebrow. She looked like a kicked puppy which to me made her look more adorable but I wouldn't dare tell her that.

"I'm sorry."I apologized sincerely looking at her eyes.

"Not everything is joke worthy."Diana scolded.

"I hear you, it won't happen again."Is assured her.

"Okay, let's go."She replied with a shrug before walking away.

I followed after her silently knowing she was still a little prickly from my little joke.

"Did I tell you how pretty you look today?"I asked her.

I saw her fighting off a smile which let me know I was back into her good books.

"Yes you did so that line won't work."Diana replied pulling on a straight face.
