Nicolas's POV
Mr mweemba and I finally had some positive news,it was a sunny afternoon,I sat by the cafe and watched him leave,an elegant woman approached me by looking at her I knew who she was,my hands shook in anxiety,my palms were sweaty from the nervousnesses building inside me," good afternoon " her voice echoed behind me,I gasped trying to fake a smile,"what's your deal with my husband " her eyes scanned my poor choice of clothes,I could tell she was judging me in every sense of the word,I looked at her without uttering a single word," I understand you have a very sick fella who means everything to you and you're doing this for the money right"she said in a very disrespectful way,I was using every bit of my strength to prevent myself for flipping her chair so she land on the floor,she had me investigated,she has all the resources to find out about my past and my life,I don't care about her position in his society,my life is my business," he is your husband,you can ask him" I could see the anger fuming in her eyes,she placed her trembling hand on the table and leaned over to me" I can have her removed from that facility with a single phone call,do not try me Nicolas,I'm giving you 2 minutes to spill it" her cunning character was visible in the smile she was wearing while threatening me,10 minutes later I had finished telling her everything,I saw how her face grew pale after discovering her husbands secret,I felt screwed,I am not that type of person but I'm helpless I had to do it,for her." Here's the deal,I bet my husband knows nothing about her?" Her eyebrow rose,I nodded in disagreement,she sighed in relief " I will cater for all her expenses,add security and pay you double...." On what condition" I interrupted. She smirked at my question" you bring me first hand information and I decide what you tell my husband,deal" she extended her hand to shake mine. Without wasting time she placed her card in my hand and left. I have never felt this helpless my whole life,for some reason I felt like seeing her again,that night she spent in my cabin was the most magical night of my life,I was so consumed with my job I had forgotten how it felt to be with someone,she's a child though I would not want to be in trouble with the law. I found myself dialing her number as I miserably walked myself home.
Samba's POV
I daydreamed about him while showering in the bathroom,my heart skipped a bit when I heard my phone ring,I really hope he's the one calling,I rushed to the bedroom checked who was calling but it was a strange number,I rolled my eyes. Whoever the person was he would call back if he was interested in talking to me,I dropped my towel on the floor exposing my body in front of the mirror,my phone rang again,I bent to grab it but ended up slipping on the ground,I couldn't help but laugh at myself as I slid the accept button"little" he said,melting my heart as those words escaped his lips,I could visualize his expression in my head,"you?"I blushed" I need to see you " I got concerned there was something about the way he sounded,his voice sounded broken,I pretended not to notice you know just so I should not sound sentimental,"where" I asked him plainly,I pulled my tight jeans to my waist," my place" I cut the line at the we spoke and slid my white crop top,and wore some boots,i looked cute,I tiptoed my way out of the house before bumping into Muna at the door step,"where are you off to all dressed up " she asked,raising an eyebrow,I pulled my lower lip between my teeth trying to come up with an excuse " to get a few things at the mall" i lied,I was clearly blushing and I know she noticed,neither did she buy my excuse,she moved to the side to allow me to go without a word,that was strange wasn't it why would Muna allow me to just go without causing a scene,could it be she has given up on me or just realized I'm a grown up.
Muna's POV
I have always had this deep passionate hatred for men,their entire existence irritates every fiber of my being,after the mini encounter I had with the HR I was getting angrier and it was so consuming that it suffocated me,I had no time to deal what so ever drama at home,as soon I entered the house Mrs phiri my mothers nanny pulled me to the side with a concerning face,could I just have five minutes of rest in this life"your mother has been very uneasy it seems she is trying to communicate" her words stirred my stomach,I felt like throwing up,I could not explain the feeling,I nodded my head at her as I walked up to my mothers room whose eyes widened when I entered the room" mother,try to remain calm,I know you have a lot to say but that isn't possible at this time,you will worsen your condition please" I persuaded her,her chest became quieter as I rubbed her palms " don't you think samba has been acting strange" I turned my head around to look at Mrs phiri who was holding her head for support,her expression to my question was screaming she had also noticed" I was waiting for you to actually bring it up,she sings,laughs to herself and has this glow on her face".
