The ringing of her phone distract her from her sweet dreams, she grab hold of her phone and check the caller, it was Derrick. She checked the time and it was only 2:00 am she turned off the phone before laying down flat. How can she be having wet dream, but a part of her wish the dream was reality, a part of her doesn’t mind in being his sex buddies and the other part of her want something more than that from him, she wanna know how it feels to date properly. Tears drop freely from her eyes and she forced her self go sleep, she doesn’t wanna cry anymore.
Three days later
Her head aches as she tries to force her eyes open, but she end up shutting them again. She has been sleeping, drinking and crying to the past three days, she didn’t have the courage to call him and he hasn’t called her either. She tried calling Beauty but she doesn’t pick up either, she only sent her a text that she’s busy. Her father have been standing at the door watching him from outside. He has tried consoling get Several times, but it’s not helping at all. Her father figure out she need sometimes and just watch her from the door.
She finally forces her eyes open, staring up at the blurry ceiling.
Nate on the other hand locked hiself up in the room, trying to figure out what’s wrong with him, he has visited his doctor countless times to check his heart since it’s not breathing normal again. His doctor told him his heart his perfectly fine.
The sound of her ringing phone pulls her attention, and she advance toward the bed where the phone is laying. Picking it up, a wide and excited smile laces up her lips once she sees who the caller is. The way she always feels brightens and excited each time a call came to her phone is the evidence that she missed him a lo. A fucking crazy lot. She clear her throat before swiping on the answer button, her father left out a smile before walking to his room
“Hey, Nate,” She says as soon as she answers the call, grinning from ear to ear, as she sits on the edge of the bed.
“Hey. You’re good?” His deep voice sounds through the phone, and her breath hitches for seconds. Damn! His voice is so sexy.
“Yes, I am, fine” she replied happily.
“I should have called you all this days, I was just scared that you won’t pick up my call” Nate replied and Oliver chuckled.
“Why would you assume that I won’t pick your call? I am sorry for reacting that way the other day, I was so ashamed to call you” Oliver smile.
“You don’t need to be sorry, I am very sorry for making you sad, can we meet today?” Nate asked, praying silently for her to agree to go out with him, they’re gonna visit the guy that harass her together in the police station.
“Sure, I can, just send me the address” she replied.
“I will come pick you up, in the next one hour” His voice sounds through the phone again, and her face beams with smiles. Of course, she doesn’t mind. She doesn’t even mind sleeping over at his house, even though that she knews he didn’t love her.
“Yes… You can come pick me up. What should I make for you? Uhm… I can make noodles, jollof, stew, egg sauce, pancake, spaghetti, meatballs. Which one should I make?” She blurts out, unable to contain her excitement. She’s embarrassed that she’s being like this, but hell! She can’t help it.
“Anything will , be fine. But you don’t need to stress yourself,” He says before the call drops dead, and she jumps up from the bed, dancing around the room like she just won a lottery. This is more than a freaking lottery.
“What should I wear?” She sings excitedly as she advances toward her closet, throwing them open, and revealing the heap of clothes hanging inside. Her Dad have been ordering different types of clothes for her since she moved in with him.
“I have to look super good,” she mumbles as she runs her fingers through the clothes, and she finally settles for a short and top.
The sound of the doorbell ringing pulls her attention, and she quickly advance toward the door. Ms Thompson have opened the door for him before she get inside the living room. He stepped hiself the house, revealing her prince charming, grace in blue trousers and white button down shirt, which has the two up buttons opened, revealing his masculine chest. This isn’t her first time seeing him, but she doesn’t understand how she managed to fall in love with him anytime she sees him.
“Hey…” She says nervously, having a nervous smile playing on her lips. How her heart always beats rapidly whenever he’s around her.. and his doctor said there’s nothing wrong with his heart, he doesn’t wanna believe he is in love with her.
“Hi,” His warm smile is everything to her, and her heart melts slowly.
Stepping into the spacious living room, he stares around the place with a satisfied expression on his face, this isn’t his first time of coming to the house, but the house look new anytime he comes, that’s the work of money, right?
“You’re welcome to my humble abode. Please have a seat,” She says to him politely, pointing to the couch while having a nervous smile on her lips. She thought she won’t be seeing him again, but here she’s with the man that’s making her heart race fast like mad
“Thank you,” He mutters, sitting on the couch.
Mr. Clinton walked out of the house and Nate stood up immediately to greet him.
“Good morning, sir” he greet with his head bow and Mr Clinton nod his head.
“Seeing how happy my daughter is right, now, I guess you’re the one that hurt her, you made my daughter cry” Mr Clinton said and Oliver rushed to cover Mr Clinton mouth with her palm. It’s not hard for Mr Clinton snd Oliver to bond as father and daughter, since he had been treating her like his daughter even before he knew she’s his daughter.
“Uhm… What should I get for you? There’s orange juice, water, water melon…” Oliver said trying to change the topic.
“Water, will be enough” Nate smile and Oliver rushed to the kitchen happily.
“Attorney Nate, did you love my daughter?”
