Careless Whispers

Harrison gave Kike the receptionist a go ahead to put a call through to his brother who was flying back into the country from Spain since Michel was attending to some important business. He had pushed himself away from her desk not enjoying the way she bent more than normal to reveal more breast to him. Not that he doesn't love some feminine curves, he has configured himself not to get thirsty at office mini skirts. He didn't return the smile so it suddenly seem to be disappearing on her face.
She got the gist then.

His phone vibrated in his pocket as he walked back into his office, he didn't hear the lady scramble out of her seat behind him.

"Hey honey."

That was Isabel. It was the sixth time she was calling and he has been putting her on hold. "At last you picked up."

"I am free for now. How are you?" he asked casually.

"I am great. I am still disappointed that you left without telling me."

"I missed your calls."

"I know you are bored with it but this days I might stop calling anyways."

"oh really?" He asked being sarcastic.

"Not a big joke because I am about to start a relationship. A serious one."

"Wow...that is great news."

"You are not jealous? Seriously?"

He paused thoughtfully. Why should he be? "At least you are wise to keep it on a low key."

The door of his office flung aside, noise filtering in as Kike was wading off someone away from the entrance.

"no...you will have to check back later....no please don't let me buzz the security unit..."

'I have to see him. I can't wait and it is now.'

'you..you are giving me no choice now.'

He strained his ears impatiently at the voices. What the hell was happening and how come there was no security on the last floor to stop such occurrence from happening.

Wait, he knew that voice.

"Are you alright?" Isabel asked.

"Yes I am." He watched the Kike close the door after herself. She seem to be able to contain the issue by now.

"Ladies are already over you in Ilorin?"

"You are jealous now? Ella....you are unbelievable. Can I talk to you at night? I need to see to some things."

"Great then. Don't get into women's wahala. Love ya!" the line went dead leaving him to smirk at the phone. Dropping it on the desk he hurried out to check what went wrong only to find someone leapt on him pushing back into the office. Kike squealed at the sight when her face turned pale before him. He was staring at an angry lioness who could devour anyone in any second.

So she got this vibe under her skin?

He gestured to his secretary that it was okay before closing the door.

He clenched his jaws just looking at her. she now grows afro instead of the long black relaxed hair she possessed back then. She was looking stunning just like when she walked into the conference room yesterday but he quickly dismissed those things. Debating within himself if she was there to ask why she couldn't be transferred after all. Or was the cut from her salary really that bad? Then his eyes caught the ring in her finger.

She was engaged!

That made him stare hard at her more.

He went back behind his desk to make himself comfortable though he was far from it. Obi was breathing slowly as she walked over to face him.
