CHAPTER 17

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

The next morning Nma woke up excited, she made some pastries to carry with her. She didn't have any idea what Uche had in mind but she wanted to be prepared. Having done that, she rushed into her room and wore a mini nude color hand knitted caftan.

When Uche knocked on her door by seven she was more than ready to go wherever he wanted to take her. And the look on his face when she opened the door compensated for the trouble she took to look good,

"Hi sweet heart!" "You look breathtaking" he smiled

"If that's any consolation, you took my breath away" she returned the compliment as she ushered him inside the house.

He smiled drew her back to his arms "It feels good to know". He kissed the back of her neck. Nma smiled at him, actually he was looking sinfully handsome but she would rather not tell him that.

"Ready?" he asked

"I think so"

"I hope you brought a swimsuit"

"I'm always prepared, and you said I would need it" she turned off the light and began to close the windows. She turned to him "So where exactly are we going?"

"It is a surprise!"

Hm! I like surprises" she cooed following him out.

She picked the basket she had prepared earlier.

"What is this?"

"Something to munch on our way, since we are missing breakfast"

"Hm!" Uche went to take a look; he couldn't resist sneaking out a cookie" "Did you make this?"

"Now that would make me a super woman" she laughed and hugged him "But I am learning"

"It is very sexy that you enjoy cooking" he told her as he led her out of the house

Nma stood dumbfounded and stared sleek white sports car, she was trying to figure out the kind of it was, till she saw it written on the back, a bugatti

"Wow! guys and their toys" she exclaimed

"No! No! No! This baby here aint no toy at all, she is a baby girl, a sweet baby girl"

"Now I am going to be jealous of her" she smiled

"But you know you will always be my first love"

They shared a smile and he opened the door for her.

She turned to him puzzled "Where exactly are you taking me?

"Get in the car" he told her firmly, opening the car door for her and going round to get in. Nma got into the car and marveled at the spacious and high tech interior.

"I figured this will be more suitable for the long ride ahead of us" he said pressing a button to fire the engine.

The drive out of town had Nma wondering what exactly he had in mind but she didn't have to dwell on that because the view was breathtaking. She couldn't stop gazing at the lush greenery on both sides of the road; it looked like somebody had taken a mow to it. Her heart couldn't stop beating fast at the way he drove the speed car like some demons were after them; she relaxed moments later when she realized that he was also very careful. She loved looking at him, he looked even better than the wonderful landscape outside. She thought she could look at him forever and still find pleasure in it always,

He stole a look at her and smiled.

"It is beautiful isn't it?"

"What?"
