"where were you last night? you were not at home when I came back from the office mom asked
" Ohh mom you are to over protective of her she is a big girl you know" Mary said serving the sauce. Jason was already digging into the spaghetti
" I went on a date" I replied taking a plate from the cupboard and serving myself some spaghetti adding a little sauce to it
"you went on a what?? mom asked shouting
" Tell me is he cute? who is he? does he stay in this estate?Mary was so eager to know
"Mom I said a date not a murder mission besides he also lives in this estate with his parents I guess" I told her
"Who is he ? mom questioned
" Joshua Adams I replied shoving spaghetti into my mouth
" you Mean Joshua Adams son of Kenneth Adams " mom said with a surprised look displayed on her face
" and how did you two cross path? she questioned again
" It is a long story mom" I answered not picking interest in the conversation, I just want to eat breakfast, have my bath and spend the rest of the day with Noah in his quarters nothing else
" you know he is very good looking and also a successful business man" mom said
" yes I know "
"and you two will make a good couple"
"mom come on' there is nothing and I mean nothing is going to happen between us " I said looking serious
" wow Vivienne Andrew and Joshua Adams jeeeeez it will make a big headline, the media will go crazy for this" Mary said clapping her hands together''No no No...There won't be any media because no one else will know about this" I said standing up from the chair as I was done eating
" how sure are you that there was no reporter spying on you two?" Mary asked raising one of her eyebrow
" because Joshua made it clear that it was just us okay" I got angry just having a conversation about Joshua so I left my plate on the table and went to my room.what is wrong with them ? Joshua is no fun at all come on I can't date him if that is what they are implying. I entered into the bathroom and sat down in my bath tub filling it with soapy water I rested my head on the tub holding a glass of wine with my hand while the other rested on my forehead.
" why am I always thinking of him" I whispered to my self
I couldn't help the thoughts going through my head...
" why do I see him differently? what is so special about him that draws me close to him? I kept talking to myself
" Noah Noah Noah gosh I said then sipped my wine.
****
I have been knocking for some minutes now ' Is he sleeping?'
I was about to knock again when the door flew open with Noah standing there shirtless, wearing only shorts that pass his knee just a little, sleep evident on his face as he tried to open his eyes, the brightness of the sun made him half blind.He blinked twice on seeing me on his front porch
" hey" I said smiling a little
" hi" he answered returning my smile which only made mine wide
" are you okay? are You going out?" he asked
I was lost staring at his body, the way his muscles flexed as he run his hands through his hair pulling them from the roots
" Vivienne" he called as I seem to be in planet Jupiter
" ooh no sorry I emmm just wanted to hang out with you, I did not know that you were sleeping" I said looking down at my feet
" okay come in " he said
His reply made me lift my head in a swift move
" really?" I made sure to ask
"yes come on in I am awake now aren't I?" he said stepping aside to let me in and I did
I walked towards his couch and stood beside it
" sit Vivienne you are not a stranger here he said walking towards his kitchen. He brought out a bottle of wine from the fridge and kept it on the counter he then took out glasses from the cupboard before turning to look at me
He caught me staring this time and said " take a picture it will last longer"
I blushed at his statement and turned my face
he came back to the room and sat down on the couch I was sitting on. He handed me a glass of the wine
" hmmm my favorite" I said as I savored the flavour of the wine
"really he asked
" yes" I said smiling and avoiding eye contact
" so what do you want to do ?" he asked
" I don't know, something fun and we could get to know each other better " I said sitting up right on the couch Looking at his relaxed form I had to ask myself : why am I so nervous around him?'
" okay that would work" he said smiling
Let me put on some clothes he said I released a breath I did not know I was holding when I heard the sound of his bedroom door.
