She felt like puking blood. She kept staring and Lanre was getting more passionate with Tara and she was cooperating with him.
Rosa’s complexion went from Fair to green and her eyes turned red. She clenched a fist and glared at Lanre.
Her heartbeats became irregular. She was angry and totally confused, she walked away but not to the restaurant.
She actually went to the restroom and cried. She couldn’t control her emotions anymore. Why is Lanre doing this to her?
What had she done that cannot be forgiven and forgotten? He was hurting her, he was making her look irrelevant to him.
He had been trying to show that he didn’t know she was still existing. He snupped her throughout the party and during the dance.
Now he kissed his woman before her. Even if they are dating, he could remain reserved until they are alone.
Rosa cried and would have soiled her makeup if it wasn’t a waterproof one. When she couldn’t cry anymore, she was sniffling.
Lanre on the other hand withdrew from Tara as soon as Rosa left. ” I’m sorry for taking advantage of you” he said and carefully removed her hands circled around his neck.
Tara looked embarrassed. Take advantage of her? Didn’t he kiss her out of interest? She was lost and dumbfounded.
“Let’s go for dinner” Lanre said and walked ahead of her to the restaurant. He thought Rosa had joined the others when she walked away.
But he didn’t see her and he took a seat. Tara also did the same and Theresa Mo became uncomfortable.
Where is Rosa? She looked over Lanre’s shoulder in the direction the latter and Tara came from but didn’t see her coming.
“Where’s Rosa?” Junxie Li asked Theresa in a whisper. They were almost half gone through the dinner and Rosa hadn’t appeared.
He was going to ask after Lanre and Tara when he saw them walk in. Is everything alright?
” I don’t know either,” Theresa replied. The two lovers didn’t say anything again. When Theresa Mo couldn’t take it again, she looked at Lanre.
” Do you by chance know where Rosa is?” Theresa asked. She stared at him, definitely wanting an answer from him.
Lanre already saw Rosa approaching with a puffy face. She might have washed her face but she can’t help the reddened eyes and a puffy face.
” Rosa, who is Rosa?” Lanre asked Theresa back.
Everyone left, getting into their car. Junxie and Theresa got into Junxie’s car and the chauffeur drove them in the direction to their home.
Theresa was nestled against Junxie’s torso. She had become his Fiancee and the thought of it sweetens her belly.
” Why is Lanre and Rosa hurting each other?” Junxie Li demanded. He hadn’t stopped wondering at what would make Lanre reply to Theresa that ‘who is Rosa?
How can he say that about a woman he once loved? Rosa had an unpleasant facial expression when they left. He wouldn’t be wrong if it’s cause was somewhat related to Lanre.
” I don’t know. But Rosa loves Lanre a lot” Theresa replied. She saw her eyes and her stealing glances at Lanre.
She longed to be in his arms again. She was to get things straight and work between them but the latter seemed not to be giving her a chance.
” Lanre loves her too. He still loves her from my own observation. If he still cares about her, I expect him to take bolder steps in getting her back” Junxie Li stated.
“Mm.. mn” Theresa Mo grunted and said nothing again. Junxie Li caressed her curly hair and felt hungry to have her that night.
Theresa placed her head on his chest, inhaling his masculine scent. He has a wonderful body and an attractive manly aura.
Lanre dropped Tara at her address. She didn’t step out of the car, but glanced at him seductively. She drank a little more than normal that evening.
And she had an urge for a man. Lanre should be able to read her mind and accompany her that night. After all, once done, he could always still do it.
Lanre waited for her to alight so he could continue on his journey. But Tara would not. He turned to glance at her and saw her eyes and the pleas in them.
” Nothing is ever going to happen between us again. And I want you to understand and appreciate that we are still friends” Lanre declared.
She didn’t answer but moved her hand to his belt. She wanted that thing he housed within that region.
” Just tonight Lanre, and I won’t ask you for it again. Please…” Tara was requesting.
Lanre grabbed her hand and threw it off. “Stop this nonsense Tara, or I won’t give you a face again” Lanre warned in a cold tone.
” We have done this before Lanre. Don’t you remember how pleasurable we felt in the past after we did it?” Tara was trying to arouse his interest and bring her hand again but Lanre arrested Midway.
” I love someone else. Not you anymore” Lanre replied and opened the door, stepping out and walking over to hold the door for Tara to step out.
She stepped out but stood in front of Lanre, looking aggrieved. ” I want a companion for the night Lanre, and I would prefer that it’s you not someone else. Take me to bed please” Tara pleaded.
” I would prefer you find someone else because I am not available for hire” Lanre snapped at her. He was feeling irritated already.
“Why are you doing this to me Lanre? Is it because of Rosa?” She asked, her eyes welling up with tears. It couldn’t have been because of Rosa that he is saying no to her.
Looking into her eyes, Lanre answered “Yes, it’s because of Rosa. I love her” and carefully moved her away from his car and shut the door.
He walked over and took his place behind the steering and drove off briskly. He had hurt her enough. The Least he can do right now is to be involved in a sexual act with Tara.
That of Nancy was a mistake. He wasn’t going to do it with anyone else as long as his heart still beats for Rosa.
Maybe he was wrong to have kissed Tara so passionately. She thinks otherwise now and wants them to make love.
Rosa felt unhappy. Maybe she should stop loving him. What’s the use of loving someone and trying to find the avenue to get reconciled with him and he does something so shameful before her.
He has found another woman and has moved on with his life. Why should she get stuck in one place and not let the wound heal?
It’s time to let the past remain in the past. Lanre is in her past and she would leave him there.
He doesn’t even remember who Rosa is. That’s serious then. She doesn’t know who Lanre is henceforth.
