HIS MISTRESS

Check on you

" That's enough Jaime, you weren't the only one worried" Racheal said as she rushed to hug Isa too. Isa scoffed. They were being so dramatic.

" What happened? Where were you?"

" What happened to your phone, I couldn't reach you"

" Why didn't you come home last night?" They bombarded her with questions.

" Guys?" Isa laughed. "How many questions do you want me to answer at a time?"

" We just want to know what happened" Racheal said. Isa explained everything to them.

" You mean you were with a man?" Racheal asked.

" Not how you mean it" she said. " He saved me and took me to his house"

" It's the same" Racheal answered while Jaime just stood there, staring at Isa.

" Where's my mom?" Isa asked.

" She's in the room, she didn't sleep a wink last night. She was worried about you while you were snuggling in another man's arms" Racheal teased.

Isa rolled her eyes and walked into the room. Racheal followed too, leaving Jaime who just stood staring in disbelief.

It's been two weeks since Ricardo dropped Isa at her house. He couldn't stop thinking about her. He thought about her all the time, when he's at work, when he's at home, even when he's eating.

" Why is she always on my mind" He said as he drove back home from work. " I can't stop thinking about her". He was deep in thoughts that he didn't know when he arrived at the path that lead to isa's house.

" How did I get here?" He asked himself as he parked his car at a distance where he could get a clear view of isa's house. He sat in the car and waited, hoping he'd get to see her. Luckily for him, he saw her. At that time it was about to rain and Isa came out to pack her clothes. He watched as the wind blew her hair all over her face and how she struggled to pack her clothes. He wanted to come down from the car but he couldn't bring himself too. He felt it was better to watch her from a distance.

Racheal and Isa sat in front of isa's house chatting and laughing.

" You see that car over there?"  Racheal asked pointing at a black Maybach.

" Yeah" Isa answered looking in the direction of the car.

" I've been seeing it at that exact same spot for a week now"

" Really?" Isa asked staring at the car. It looked familiar.

" Yeah. You think someone is spying on us?" Racheal asked.

Isa stood up and started walking towards the car. She wanted to get a better look. As she got closer she realized she had seen the car before. Infact, she knows the car.

" It can't possibly be him, right?" She asked still walking towards the car. But as she got to the car, she was definitely sure that he was him.

Ricardo  would drive to isa's house everyday after he closed from work, watch her for a while till she goes inside to sleep, then he leaves too. He was watching her talking to her friend when he saw the girl  pointing towards his car. Before he knew it Isa was walking towards him, he didn't know what to do. Should he drive off or wait behind? As he battled to make a choice, she knocked on his window. He wind down the glass.

" What are you doing here?" Isa asked him. He got down from the car.

" I...I ...got lost" He stuttered.

Isa didn't believe him. " You got lost? My friend over there said she's been seeing you here for over a week now"

Ricardo gave her a weak smile. " Actually, I just wanted to check on you. I didn't get your number the other day so I couldn't call" .

Isa was surprised. He had been driving all the way from his house to check on her? She tried not to blush. She smiled at him instead.

" Care to join us?" She asked him gesturing to where she sat with Racheal.
