Present.....😮💨
The shrill cry of my alarm pierced the silence, trying to wake me up and announce it was 7:00pm in the morning-only if it knew that I wasn't sleeping. My restless mind refused to surrender to slumber.
"Who was he?", "what does he want?", "why did he kidnap me?", "is he a psycho killer?", "is he a rapist?", " why would he try to rape me?" Most of all, "why did he let me go". These endless thoughts swirling in my head.
I got out from bed putting all the thoughts behind, took a quick shower and wore some comfortable clothes. I wore an oversized T shirt and a sweat shorts.
I went downstairs to the kitchen,I was really starving, I prepared some toast bread,pancakes, chicken sandwich, succulent honey and lemon chicken, baked some cup cakes and ordered pizza, ramen and a Pepsi -oh forgot to mention, I am a foodie.
I reclined in my opulent and expansive lounge, indulging in a sumptuous feast. Just as I was about to take another bite of my heavenly toast bread, the doorbell chimed.
"Ugh......." A deep groan escapes my lips.
I reluctantly stood up from my cozy retreat and made my way to the door. As I opened the door, I was suddenly engulfed by a tight hug.
Angel pulled away to look at me before she hugged me again. She came in, took a sit on the sofa as I closed the door.
"Where were you Emily, you left the party without me, why?"
"I wasn't feeling well." I said as I returned to my relaxing spot.
"So you didn't think it was right to call back. Did u even check ur phone, I'd left 52 missed calls, 15 voice mails, 102 messages on your phone. You didn't even pick your calls, I even called ur mum."
"Holy shit..!!! My mum?" I yelled
"Yeah I had to, I worried sick."
"Oh my gosh... it'd only be a matter of time before she gets here". I said using my left arm to hit my forehead.
"But she didn't pick."
"Thank God." I sighed in relief
"So tell me why weren't you answering your phone calls? Why did you leave the party without informing me?"Angel said with a furrowed eyebrow.
"I was really tired, I just wasn't feeling the vibe of the party."
"Why? you didn't get a chance with Jacob?"
"Actually..... I got a lot of chances with Jacob."
"Wow..fill me in." She said with a mischievous smile.
"My pleasure. We flirted with each for a while then he took me to his room, we kissed and got caught my his girlfriend/fiancée."
"He had a girlfriend?
"Mm-hmm."I nodded.
"Just take a guess who the person is." I said moving close to her.
"Umm.....Bianca?."
"Nada." I shook my head
"Ummm... I knew it"she snapped her hands. "Mr Flora....I knew it. You know I once caught both of them alone in her office. She's really something. Isn't she?
I scrunched-up my face, narrowed my eyes and tilted my head just staring at her. " why would Jacob date a woman old enough to be his mother."
"Some guys prefer older women you know" she whispered.
"Mrs Flora is a lecturer, why would he date her. Nope it's not her."
"Fine... I give up. Just tell me already, you know I'm not good at this guessing game."
