Mike came wrapping his arms around my waist, he leaned over kissing the nape of my neck. I turned to face him unbuttoning his shirt, I was really enjoying this and maybe Tricia was right and you only live once. I helped him pull his shirt off staring at the six packs glaring at me. "Delicious" I said out loud shocking even myself. I placed my lips on his slowly tasting and placing my tongue in his. "Ohh I was enjoying this" He held my waist, his hands reaching down for my buttocks, he grabbed it and heard me let out a little scream.
Just friends

Chapter one
[A night]
"Hurry up Norah we are almost late for the party"
"I will be there in a second"
"You have repeated that statement twice now"
"Am here. How do I look?"I asked watching her eyes stare furiously at me.
"Annoying".She replied.
"Really?. common give me a smile"I tried saying but she walked out.
"Will meet you In the car"
"She gets upset easily"I told myself entering the car.
"I don't okay"She said buckling her seat belt.
"You lie. So tell me will Michael be there?"I asked trying to tease her.
"I don't know. If he wants to come he will come"
"Tricia it your boyfriend we are talking about"I tried reminding her.
"Yeah,so?"
"So, you should know if he is coming or not"
"Hmm I don't care"
I watched her for a while before driving out of the compound.
"Tell me what wrong?"I asked curiously.
"We had a fight"
"It quite obvious"I responded.
"Really?"She asked rather sad.
"Yes darling it is"
She kept mute.
I drove close to the road and gave her a nice pat on her shoulder.
"A problem shared is a problem solved"I assured her.
"He wants us to get married"She started.
"Marriage? That great Tricia"I said smiling.
"It is?"She asked in a calm tone.
"Yes it is"I said smiling.
"So what caused the argument?"
"I don't want marriage"
"Why?"I questioned.
"Am scared"She responded.
"Scared of commitment or his mum"
"Both dear"
"Why?"
"I don't know if I am up for this marriage stuff. I mean I can't even cook a meal right nor can I clean"
"So?You can hire someone to help out"
"Yes. I suggested that but Micheal refused bluntly urging I go learn how to do those things as his mum won't be happy seeing an helper"
"What! That childish besides it only in the olden times that women do such"
"We started off with a normal dialogue until Michael left and he didn't show up,I tried calling but no one answered".
"Hmm that serious"
"Yes after what I said am sure he wouldn't want to marry me again"
"What did you say?"
"I wished his mum death"
"Wow"
"Yes, though am upset with him I still miss him alot"
"Call him and you both talk"
I stopped the car at a friend's place.
"We are here"I said and she tried smiling.
"Let go in and wish Bella a happy birthday"She said walking.
"Hold on"I called.
"What happened?"She asked.
"Smile. Your smile matters a lot to your beauty"
"Oh I didn't know"She tried teasing me.
"Let go in we are really late"
"I know right"She said and walked in while I followed put.
The whole avenue was colourful, Bella has decided to have her party close to the pool.
We both walked to where she was to wish her a happy birthday but got a shock instead.
"Hi Bella"We chorused.
"Hi"She responded.
"Girls thanks for not being here on time"She said sacarstically.
"The good thing is we are here. Happy birthday"I said handling her the gift.
"Yes thank you. Wait guys I want to introduce you to my finacee"
"What that I hear?"I asked smiling.
"He proposed"She said waving her hand to show us the ring.
"Wow. Is that a diamond ring?"Tricia asked curious.
"Yes dear it is. Real diamond"She said and gave a short laugh.
"When did this all happen?"I asked.
"Today. It came as a birthday surprise"
"That beautiful. Your Man has taste"Tricia complimented.
"Yes he does. I can't find him now but go enjoy the party I will call you when I see him"
"Sure"We chorused and walked away.
"Bella isn't scared of commitment Tricia"I said and she gave me a smile that says
"Yeah I know"
"How about you call Michael now and you both talk it out and resolve something"
"Okay. Excuse me"She said walking away.
"Hey waiter"I called and a cute blonde guy dressed in waiter's attire came close.
"Ma you called"
I stood for a while admiring him. He had a perfect figure, good looking and worst a charming smile.
He gave me a seductive smile and I quickly looked away.
"Give me that"I requested.
"Sure here"
"Thanks"
"You are welcome"He said and walked out.
"Cute but disgusting. Nothing is ever complete in a guy"
I walked away only to see the waiter giving me glances. I tried ignoring,I couldn't. At a time I walked close to him and asked him why he was staring.
"The same reason you were"He responded quite bold.
"You lack shame"I said and walked away.
"Am John by the way"
I heard while I searched through for Tricia.
"Finally got hold of you the birthday girl wants to cut the cake"
"Yes"
"So how was the talk?"I asked watching her.
"He didn't answer"
"Maybe he is busy"
"Hi guys. I wanted to cut my cake but then I also want to make a special announcement too"Bella said smiling.
"Am engaged and I want to introduce my finacee, he is the reason for my smile, my better half please welcome the love of my life Michael Odin"We all heard as he walked up stage.
"Michael!"Tricia called in tears.
"That Micheal right"I too chorused shocked.
"How could he do this to me?"Tricia had broke down in tears.
"Am so glad to be here to witness the love of my life birthday. I can't thank God enough for making me be here. She is one in a million to me and no one can measure up to her,her cooking,the way she cleans the house and Everything she does put a smile on my life. She is really the ideal wife. My wife to be"He said and hugged her giving her a short kiss on the lips while the crowd cheered on.
"I can't take this"Tricia said and ran off.
"Wait!. Tricia! Tricia!"
I watched her drive off.
I called her and she told me she was home already and she doesn't want to be Disturbed and that she needed space to cry.
I called the neighbor and begged she help monitor Tricia so she wouldn't do anything stupid.
"Michael was going to pay for what he did".
I told myself and walked to where he was.
He was shocked on seeing me.
"Is Tricia here with you?"He finally asked.
"Why do you care?"
"I don't. Just wanted to make sure she isn't"
"You are gross"I spitted out.
"Look Jane am not the bad guy here okay am only looking out for a wife material and your friend isn't"
"Mind your words"
"Or what?. It best you come in terms with reality and go explain to her that no man want a woman who can't cook, clean rather is only good when it comes to satisfying my desires".
"Disgusting. Tricia did everything you wanted you sly pig"
"I didn't recall forcing her. She made her choice and I made mine to think she wished my mum death. Mannerless"
"Tricia is the sweetest girl I know and regardless of that you took advantage of her and think you would go freely. Weren't you the one who took her virginity to begin with you shameless dog?"
"Calm down Jane I don't want people thinking I raped her. Look, have moved on so should Tricia I no longer see her as any use to me. Try explaining that to her and knock some sense to her for me I mean what girl thinks a man would respect her after he has seen her legs wide open. No man sweetheart".
"You disgust me"
He gave a short laugh and was about walking out when I heard him back slapping him hard on the face.
"I wished Tricia could do this"
Everyone gathered watching the scenario.
"Jane what gives?"Bella asked surprised.
"Look Bella am doing this for your own good"
"Why did you slap me?. I mean I knew I had mistakenly touched your breast while trying to save you from falling but it was only a mistake and I wanted to clear it before she gave me a tight slap".
"Stop your melodrama you liar"I said and Bella came close and slapped me hard.
"Why?"I asked and she held my hand.
"What gave you the right to slap my husband besides he tried explaining to you he only touched it by mistake"
I stared at Bella then at Micheal who gave me a creepy smile.
"Bella he is lying"
"I see and you are telling the truth. It best you leave you have done enough damage spoiling my birthday and ruining it for the both of us"
"Bella you have got to believe me on this"
"Didn't you here me.Leave"She said and two men came close.
"Take her out and yes I don't want to see your face ever again since you can't be happy for me it best we stop been Friends"
"Tricia. He hurt her. I promise he is a liar"I tried saying but I was dragged away from the party.
"Gentlemen can I take her off your hands she is my girlfriend"I heard and I turned to see the same waiter.
"Here.Make sure she is off this building"
I looked away when the big men realeased me from their grip.
"Come on I will take you home"He said and I walked away mumbling words like
"Michael would pay so dearly"
"Common it late"He said following put.
"Look it was nice of you to save me but that doesn't mean you can do anything else. Am not your girlfriend and I will broad a cab. Hope that understood?"
"Sure. But you can't get any here it already late"
"Hmm" I said and surprisingly he was right.
"Just a lift home won't hurt"
I watched him closely. I hated favors especially when it coming from a guy.
But then it was late.
"Okay where is your car?"I asked.
"It over there"He said and drove close to me with a Ferrari.
"Is this yours?"I asked wondering if he stole it.
"Yeah any problem?"He asked.
"But you are a waiter"I said still shocked.
"It doesn't mean I should be deprived having a car of my own"
"It must be your boss car" I said and he smiled.
"I own it"
"You stole it?"I asked and he laughed.
"Okay if it makes you happy it not mine. I borrowed it from a friend to take a beautiful girl home".
I entered the car, wore the seat belt and said
"What friend?"
"He goes by the name John and he doesn't mind been a driver to a beautiful lady today"He said giving me a smile.
He drove off.
"Hmm"I said my eyes fixed on the road.
"Why are you quiet?"He asked but I didn't say a word.
"Hmm silence treatment then"He said and I stared at him.
"I don't want to say anything"I muttered slowly.
"Alright"He said and fixed his eyes on the road.
"Where are you taking me to?"I asked .
"Somewhere. You need your smile back and that what I want to give you"
"Just take me home"
"Sorry but that won't work"
"So you are kidnapping me now?"I asked.
"Not really. Do you think am going to hurt you?"He asked starring at me.
"I don't even know you,so yes"
"Don't worry I won't hurt you".
"Am going to scream out if you don't stop"
"Don't do that"
"I will"
"You are really stubborn"
"Just take me home"
"This place is better. If you don't like it I promise I will take you home. Trust me"
"Who are you?"
"A friend that can't seem to get his eyes off you"
I rolled my eyes and he stopped the car.
"Stay close to me"
"Why?"
"You will find out soon"
*What with him?*
He walked out opening the car door for me. He led me to a building on getting there I saw a lot of men smoking.
"Hey John who is she?"One of them asked.
"Stay off her Richard"He warned.
"Why?She is really pretty"He said and he drew me away.
"Ignore him"He whispered softly.
"Sure. Let go of me"
He stared at me and left my hands.
"Am going home"I said and walked away.
"Look God answered my prayers the pretty girl came by"One of the people smoking said.
I walked away ignoring his remarks but he held me.
"Where do you think you are going?"One of them asked.
"Don't you want to greet us?"Another came with a smirk on his face.
"Let me go or else?"I warned trying to act brave.
They all gave out a mocking laughter.
"Boss you hear her"
A skinny man wearing a dirty trouser came revealing his brown dirty teeth.
"I like her"He said touching me.
"Get your disgusting hands off me"
"Fierce.I love it"
"Let her go"
"John. We are only joking with her"
"It best you are"He said and I wondered why they were scared of him.
"She is my girlfriend and I don't want her getting hurt. Hope you get?"
"We are sorry"They chorused.
"Baby let go"He said holding my hands.
*Baby?*
"Come in"
"Please take me home if it money you want I will give you I promise"
"Keep your money"
"Okay let me go in peace please"
"Sure but for now you stay with me"
"This is kidnapping"
"No it isn't"
"It is"
He opened the door and dragged me in.
"Am sorry I used force"
I gave him a Stern look.
"Look Tricia is all alone and she is going through hell now please let me go home to her"
"Chill Jane"
"How did you know my name?"
"I made research"
"About me?"I asked surprised.
"Yes, hope you don't mind?"
"That intruding on my privacy"I said upset.
"Well I consider it getting a lady I want"He responded and gave me a glass of wine.
"It not drugged"He said softly.
"Hmm ok"I said and watched him sip half of it.
"Now have your drink. I will be back"He said walking away.
I made a silent prayer and sniffed the drink to be sure. It was real wine.
Eventually I sipped a bit of it and strolled round the place.
It had enough space to fill up a family of five but from the outside it was really little.
I reached for the door and realized it was locked, searching through for the key I heard a voice.
I moved to where it was coming from and right there I saw John.
"Yes sir she is here"
*Who is he talking to?*
"Hmm that would be difficult as she is hesitant to stay"
"You suppose I tell her the truth"
"What?. Stay here with me"
"Sir am not sure that possible. My girlfriend is coming over in a few days"
*So he has a girlfriend?*
"Alright. Next week then"
I heard and I tried running off but a vase fell and broke.
"Sorry. Am sorry"I said trying to pick up the vase.
"Don't bother you will get hurt.."
"Ouch!"I cried out in pain.
"I warned you. Don't move"He said and came back with the first aid box.
"Let me see your hands"He requested.
"Don't worry am fine...ouch!!!"I cried out.
"You aren't"He said and held my hands.
"Just a quick look"He said softly.
"Alright"I said and he leaned over blowing air to my injury.
I watched him for a while.
"Close your eyes and bite your lips"He said and I wondered why.
"Why?"I asked confused.
"Please just do it"He said and I did.
He took out cotton wool and cleaned my wounds that I could get.
"Bite your lips"He said and I felt a rush of pain down my hands.
He must have applied methylated spirit.
"Done. You can open your eyes now"He said and I smiled.
"Thank you"
"Sure.Don't get up from there please"He said and came back with a brush and a Parker.
I watched him sweep off the broken pieces of the vase.
"You are staying here for a few days"He muttered while I stared at him.
"Why?. Who wants you to hold me captive?"I requested.
"You will find out soon"
"Whatever.Am calling the police"I said and he took my phone.
"Give me that" I requested.
"No. You will get it next week"
"What! This is torture and by the time am out of here you will be sleeping In the jail cell"
"Oh really. Am scared"He said and gave a short laugh.
"I will get you something to change into"He said leaving me in the sitting room.
"Here Change into that"He said and walked out.
"Hmmm"I said admiring the dress.
"So you keep women clothes?"I asked watching him stare at me.
"I don't. She forgot this"He replied finally taking his eyes off me.
"Who is she?"I asked and he stared away facing his novel.
"My girlfriend"He replied and I frowned.
"You fool who gives a stranger his girlfriend clothes to wear?"I asked and he watched me closely.
"You could have rejected it when I gave you"He replied and I stared away.
"Have got nothing to wear that why"
"That true".
"Yes"
"Are you hungry?"He asked getting up.
"Yes but I will be fine"
"You plan on starving all night"
"No I don't but have got no choice"
"You do have a choice. Stay here let me go prepare something"He said and I laughed.
"You cook?"I asked.
"Yes. Anything wrong in that?"
"No. You men request for much so it difficult finding out you actually cook"
"I don't mind cooking or doing chores I see it as a way of caring for a woman and today I would be your man"He said and winked at me.
"Stay off. Your girlfriend would be upset"
"Am sure she wouldn't be"He said and smiled.
"Meaning?"
"She doesn't expect me to take my eyes off especially when am around a beautiful woman like you"
"Gross. Unfaithful"
"A compliment doesn't makes me unfaithful"
"It does. You are going too far"
"Sure. I will be in the kitchen"
I watched him leave and I went close to his novel. It's title was "She is mine by Obodozie favour chioma".
I didn't trust him with what I could eat especially after what he displayed.
I walked down to the same direction he went and met him in the kitchen.
"Come to watch me cook or you are scared I might poison you?"He asked giving me a suspicious glare.
"The second statement is correct"I replied with much confidence.
"Ohh I see. I won't bite I promise"He said smiling.
"Keep that word for your girlfriend"I said watching him.
"For a girl of your caliber you sure talk with much confidence"He said slicing the onions.
"You do the same"I said still watching him.
"Am a guy. I should have ego and be bold too"He said winking at me.
"That your mentality"I said and he dropped the knife.
"Everyone has their own sense of thinking"
"Yours disgust me"
"You find me disgusting?"
"Wasn't I clear on it?"I asked and he gave me a Stern look.
"You were"He said keeping mute.
"So what's for dinner?"I asked as my tummy rumbled.
"Pasta"He said and I nodded.
"Alright. I'm a bit weak I will go rest and then shower".
"Alright"
"Wait. Where am I to sleep?"
"Go left that your room".
I walked out and entered Into a room.
It was messy so it took me time to arrange.
"He wants me to sleep in this room. It is too messy".
I didn't care. I pulled off my clothes and walked into the bathroom.
I turned on the showers and watched as the little drops of water fell across my body.
After showering, I came out realising I forgot my towel only to see the biggest mistake of my life.
"Am sorry"He said almost immediately.
I rushed back to the bathroom feeling ashamed.
I couldn't believe he was in that room and he saw me naked.
It was so embarrassing.
I locked the bathroom door almost immediately.
"Am sorry"I heard.
"Go away. You have seen what you came to see"I said upset.
"I didn't plan on it".
"Oh really?. Why were you in my room?"
"Your room?. This is my room".
"What?. You told me to go left".
"This is right. Your room is next to mine".
"Just go"I said ashamed.
"I won't until you come out".
"Didn't you get a clearer view of my naked body before?"I asked upset.
"What?. No I mean come have dinner you can't stay here locked up".
"I can but I won't be".
"Come out".
"I don't have any clothes on"I informed him.
I didn't hear anything for a while and later I heard.
"Here, wear this".
I opened the door slowly and collected it.
"Thank you"I muttered.
"Are you done?"I heard and I walked out.
"Whoah.."I heard him say.
"What?"I asked confused.
"You look beautiful. More beautiful than the owner of the dress".
"Thank you,can I eat?. Am starving".
"Yes, I have served dinner"
I ignored him and walked downstairs, sitting down I made a short prayer and began devouring the food.
"Chill..the food isn't running"He said.
I ignored him and ate to my satisfaction.
"I want to go to bed now can I?"
"You can. You don't need permission from me"
"This isn't my house and I need to know where I will be sleeping so I don't get surprised again. I hope you understand".
"You won't let that slide would you?"He asked and I looked away.
"Just show me my room".
"Okay it's that way"He said pointing at a door.
"You sleep well".
"I will"I said, I entered the room and banged it right on his face.
"This girl has nerves"I said and walked straight to my room.
I locked the door and pressed a button on my bed and the whole room changed.
*Shocking right*
Am a detective and that's how I work.
"Sir she is asleep now"
"Good. Do take care of her I will be returning in a few days".
"I don't know what to tell my girlfriend when she returns".
"You tell her she is your sis"
"She knows I don't have a sister"
"You do something then. Agent Mike (That was my real name not John. Well John is my undercover name when I go on missions). You have a pretty brain use it. Yes stay off her she is the only one have got".
"I can't promise you that. She's just too beautiful".
"I hope I was clear about that"
"Yes sir you were".
"I will be there in a few days make her happy"He said and smiled.
"I have sent you some cash to get her new clothes to wear. Remember I don't want her hurt"He said and ended the video chat.
I smiled wondering if I would even have time for that girl. She wasn't someone I wanted to even waste my time on. She has a rude and commanding tone that I disliked.
I recalled our conversation In the kitchen
"For a girl of your caliber you sure talk with much confidence"He said slicing the onions.
"You do the same"I said still watching him.
"Am a guy. I should have ego and be bold too"He said winking at me.
"That your mentality"I said and he dropped the knife.
"Everyone has their own sense of thinking"
"Yours disgust me"
"You find me disgusting?"
"Wasn't I clear on it?"I asked and he gave me a Stern look.
"You were"He said keeping mute.
Nah this girl has built in much confidence and I don't mind breaking it.
"Good morning"I heard after setting breakfast.
"Morning"I said and turned to be sure I heard her say it.
"Why are you turning around?"
"Maybe because this is actually the first time you've said something nice and polite to me. I wanted to be sure you were the one".
"Hmm.. so what's for breakfast?"She asked changing the topic.
"What with your energy this morning? Last night you could have ripped my head off if you were given a chance".
"I don't mind doing that over breakfast"She said and gave me a creepy smile.
"Alright. I prepared crumbled eggs and bacon".
"Yum.. can I have some?"She asked and I reached out to dish for her but she had started already.
"I thought girls don't eat well till I met you"
"Are you trying to annoy me this morning?"She asked sitting down.
"No am not"I said and stood up to pour her the hot tea from the teacup.
"Just wondered why you aren't fat. The way you eat you should be fat by now".
"Your words aren't one to prick me"She replied.
She has a sharp tongue that i wanted to help cut.
"Alright. Just eat".
"I wanted to but you distracted me with irritating compliments".
"I wasn't trying to compliment you"
"Exactly. I was trying to find a suitable word to place you in"She said and I kept mute watching her closely.
I realized she couldn't use cutleries.
"Can I get a fork instead?"
"Hmm you have got a whole set of cutleries why can't you use that?"
She kept mute.
I stood up and held her hands.
She watched me in silence, I held a fork and then a knife with her second hand.
She just watched me direct her hands closely.
I used her hands to slice the bacon a little bit and the other hand I used it to pierce the bacon with the fork and I fed her it.
I watched her eat and removed my hands from hers.
"It is as simple as that".
My phone rang...
"Who is that?"I heard her say and I walked away.
"John am coming home tomorrow".
"Tomorrow?..that quick"I informed her.
"Quick as how?..i haven't been home for two months now and you know it"
"Yes I do"
"Wait don't you want me home?"
"Of course I do. By what time are you coming so I come pick you up".
"Leave that to me. I will be there late".
"Okay"I said ending the call.
I was worried about how I could explain to Catherine that I was on a mission.
I got back only to see she wasn't in the living room. I heard a voice and I searched through till I found her.
She was in the garden singing. Her voice was great. I was impressed.
"It beautiful"
"What do you want?"She asked in a commanding tone.
"You have a really beautiful voice"I complimented.
She just stared at me and stared back at the garden.
"That not the answer to my question"
"I only complimented you I don't want anything. Infact what with the attitude you have been putting up since?"I asked almost upset.
She kept mute.
"I didn't want to say anything because you were hurt from what happened last night but you don't use your sharp tongue on me it also hurt. Am human"I responded.
She raised her eyebrows and fixed her glance back on the garden.
"Human?. You are also a man as well and the fact you men disgusts me won't change"She said and I wondered why.
"The fact that your friend's boyfriend didn't deserve her doesn't mean other men are disgusting"I tried saying.
"It best you don't try saying anything".
"Meaning?"
"If men were to be considered righteous you won't even be given last position"She said and chuckled at my surprised face.
"I need to know why you are so bent on hating Men"
"My personal decision wasn't decided with you so why should I inform you then".
"Though you are beautiful and attractive your character doesn't speak much"He said and walked away.
I couldn't take her insults anymore it was becoming unbearable. I decided to rest a bit as I was up all night.
I walked into the living room and met him asleep this was the perfect time to escape.
I tried searching through for my phone but I couldn't find it. I walked into his room and began searching.
"Here have this"I heard.
"Thanks"I replied and turned only to see him smiling.
"Ahhhh" I screamed out in shock..
"I thought you were asleep".
"I was but with you here I can't rest in peace"He said smiling.
"What that supposed to mean?"
"That you are annoying".
He took the phone from me immediately.
"Annoying?. Is that how you could describe me?"
"I forgot to add judging and quick to assume".He said and turned to me smiling.
"You learn to talk to me politely"I warned.
"Or else?"He asked.
"You don't want to know".
"You talk like you are brave enough"
"You don't want to walk on my shoes"
"I don't mind doing so"He said giving me a wink. He winked at me sending shivers down my spine.
"Don't creep me out with your weird looks it doesn't charm me but give me nightmares"I said and almost laughed but he didn't find it funny.
He came close to me.
"Let see how tough you are"He said and pulled me close to him.
My hands on his amazing chest.
"Let me go"i tried saying but he smiled.
"So you could beg?"He said and I stared away from his eyes. It somehow was working wonders on me I couldn't even comprehend where the sensation of wanting his lips on mine came from.
From the devil of course. He has a girlfriend.
"I didn't beg you"I managed to say.
"Okay then I won't let you go unless you do so"
I wanted to take this opportunity to watch her beg and enjoy it while it lasted.
"A Man's Ego is the only thing he feeds on"She said and I was dumbfounded for a while.
I wondered what words I could say to her.
"You would be in a good condition now if you let me go"She said with much confidence.
I wanted to break that confidence.
"What do you mean by that?"I asked and then screamed in pains.
She had stepped on my foot hard that it hurts, I removed my grip from her and held my foot.
"You ungrateful witch"I screamed out.
"Next time you come so close to me I would cut those things you call hands"She said and walked out.
"I was going to get her to dance to my tunes"
After massaging my foot with hot water I entered the kitchen only to find her there.
"What are you doing in my kitchen?"I demanded.
"Am preparing lunch"She said and I laughed hard.
"What can you cook?"I asked in a mocking tone.
"I said I was preparing lunch I never said yours was included"She said and I frowned immediately.
"When you are done you call me"I said and walked out to the living room.
I had the television switched on and was watching football when the aroma of what she was cooking surrounded the whole room.
"It smelt really delicious and I felt the need to want to have a taste"
"I'm done cooking"She said and walked out of the kitchen with a plate.
"Can I have some?"I asked hiding my pride.
"Sure I dished a plate for you it's in the kitchen"She said shocking me.
"Is it poisoned?"I asked and she smirked.
"I don't poison lazy men".
"Am not lazy".
"That not how I see you"She said and I ignored her, I wanted to have a taste of her food and nothing more.
I walked into the kitchen,prayed a bit and ate a bit.
"Oh my God it was delicious. If it were poisoned I prefer to rather die in heaven. This food was heaven down on Earth".
"It almost late In the night so how about we get to know each other better Instead of all this arguments".
"Hmm".
"Please" I begged.
"Alright. You go first"
"Ask me anything and I answer and if I don't want to I will say skip".
"Alright. What's your real name?"She asked shocking me.
"Mike"I said and she smiled.
"Why do you go around using a fake name?"
"It because of my job. I can't say anymore"
"Hmm okay. Why am I here?"I asked and he smiled.
"Personal reasons that would be explained soon".
"Can I get my phone?"
"You can't. Well until the day you leave"

"No she doesn't".
"Why?".
