Back To Me

Chapter 12

Thozi's POV:

Waking up due to my alarm clock going off at exactly eleven o’clock – just as I had set it for – in that moment I found a large smile present itself up across my lips. A smile mirrored with a sense of excitement upon it, all due to the day in which I had planned today. You see, once I saw Karim yesterday evening on walking out of the office after my shift at work and hearing him tell me he would speak to me soon, it did not take him all that long at all to get a hold of me. Roughly an hour or so if I am honest with you. And when he did text me, it seemed in of a sense that he had something planned for the both of us. A day out with only the two of us.

But of course though, taking in the situation between the both of us, I was a little optimistic as to going out in public with him like Karim had stated. I mean, the last thing which I and of course Karim need is to be caught in the public eye. With just one simple sighting from both of us it is bound to plant speculation into the media’s minds, forcing them to publish such of a photo of the both of us. So I would honestly like to keep my job under Lucia for as long as I can, until the moment both Karim and I deem fit to tell her what we are doing. I know for of a simple fact that we are going to have to tell her about the rekindle of our relationship now at some point – or rather seeing each other – but for me, the time is simply not right in now.

Yet somehow and some way, Karim has lured me into agreeing with him. And the both of us are to be going to the cinema today, to spend a little time together. But I guess, if we are to be as careful as we possibly can when around the city, then fingers crossed we will not be at all seen by anybody which broadcast what is going on between us into the media. So despite all the sceptical part of today, I know for a fact that it is going to be a good day. Spending all of time with Karim is something that I enjoy, and nothing will ever change that. Just like I as of a while now have been saying to you constantly; this man means a lot to me, just like he has for a while now, and I want to be able to spend as much time with him as I can as now.

So coming to terms with the fact now that I was wasting more time than I should be when I will have my taxi waiting outside for me in a little over an hour now, I shot up and out of my bed in an instance. On removing the duvet from being around my body I made my way over to sit in front of the mirror in my bedroom, running a make-up wipe over my face before in a moment or two unzipping my make-up bag. Taking my foundation out I squirted a little on the top of my hand, using the make-up brush to blend it into my face. So once I had applied the foundation to my face I followed it in with a thin layer of mascara to my eyelashes, then a reasonable amount of faint pink lipstick to my lips in order to find my look off completely.

And so in that moment I proceeded to run a brush through my hair whilst I was then to wait for my straighteners to warm up on the mat. Luckily enough for me though I did not have to wait very long at all, as after roughly thirty seconds later, the beeping noise in which was to come from them rang through my ears, letting me know they were ready for us. So I picked them up immediately, using a comb to straighten through my hair as quickly as I could with the boiling hot straighteners. Words cannot even begin to tell you just how long all of this in a sense took me, I had lost count of the time to be honest. But due to wanting to get my hair into a state of perfection, it did take me a hell of a long time to straight each strand of it all.

The second in which I had finished straightening my hair I immediately stood up, walking in the direction of chest of draws and wardrobe resting against the far wall here inside of my room. So opening up the chest of draws I immediately took out a fresh pair of underwear, matching them with a simple jumper and a pair of jeans. Placing them on the bed behind of me I walked to the wardrobe, taking out a bag and pair of heels of choice before placing as well them down onto the bed. And so with that I walked to the bed, removing all of which I had on previously and changing into my fresh clothes. Throwing the other ones inside the wash bin I started to pack my bag, putting all of which I would need inside of it, all of sorts of essentials; phone, fresh make-up – to be on the safe side – money as well as my keys too.
