*CAUGHT IN👌🏿 THE MIDDLE*
CHAPTER ONE
I walked along the road with my box of possessions i carried from the office. It was just one small box. I never had much things in that stinking office anyway. Images of the memories I had in that office flashed through my mind. I had been working for Julian and co. for about five years now,I was a very Jovial and friendly person so all my colleagues liked me. Hmm not all though .Back the MD was Mr Winston. He was a very harsh and bossy man but he was always lenient with me cause I was hardworking and loyal .Even though he was a big grump,I preferred him to Mr Tim. Mr Tim was the kind of younger,handsome and flirty type .He was a hot cake and some of my female colleagues were ready to do anything to get his attention even as far much as sleeping with him. Yuck!But well who are my to judge. I never fancied him one day. He was too cocky and lewd for my liking .Too bad he had to look at me. I mean I dress pretty decent. No skimpy or extremely tight clothes but I did have this killer figure that I tried so much to conceal. I am not the kind of person who likes attention. I never knew Mr Tim had been lusting after my body.
"Sir,I'm sorry but I cant do that"
"Oh please Kyla .Is it much of a big deal. You cant tell me you haven't done it before" He said chuckling.
I looked at him irritated .No I haven't done it before. Firstly the thought of it alone disgusts me. Secondly I wasn't ready for heartbreak and lastly it was against my religious beliefs .Only married people were suppose to do that so I'd wait till I get married that is if I do.
"Sir whether I've done it before is of no concern to you but my answer is no.I cant do it"
"Not even if i promised you a fat reward?He asked with a sly smile .Did he think I was cheap?I kept quiet for a while and he began grinning like a fool .He thought he had caught game but then I smoke with a firm but calm voice.
" Not even if you promised me the whole world"
He seemed shocked at my answer. I got up gently and arranged my outfit.
"So if you excuse me sir I've got some paper work I have to tend to"
I walked out the office feeling victorious. He better go find some other chic cause this chic was a no man's area.
I wished that could have ended it but Mr Tim tried his very best to get me. He gave me time offs,increased my salary and incentives but I still stood my ground. There are a lot of things that were more valuable to me than money. My dignity and my values were some of those things. A few weeks after that I was given a dismissal letter stating that my services were no longer needed. I confronted Mr Tim as to what had I done to be dismissed. He gave a stupid lie that clients had been complaining about me. I begged him to re consider but he said the only way he would, was if I give him what he wanted. I refused vehemently. In fact before I left the office I made sure I told him what I thought of him. Such a shameless man. He thinks I cant get another job. He'll see. I stopped in front of a big apartment building and got in. I tried not to make it obvious I had lost my job. I tapped on the elevator button. The elevator opened and I got in .I saw my crazy neighbour from a distance along with some of her equally crazy friends .Oh Good Lord. Why today?Charlotte was a nosy poker. Always snooping around people's business and personal life in an uncomfortable way. I desperately hit the elevator buttons continuously wishing earnestly that the door would close and she wouldn't get in with me .I know it might sound pretty wrong but trust me, no one would want to be anywhere with Charlotte for a long time.
Unfortunately Charlotte and her friends came before the door started to close.
"Hey .Girls its my hot neighbour. Hey Kyla" Charlotte said loudly in her always annoying voice .I tried to be nice.
"Oh its you and your friends"
"Yeah. we are just coming from an awesome party .It was wonderful except there was no hot drinks" Charlotte complained creasing her face like a child.
"At least that hottie gave you his number" One of her friend said chewing gum like a prostitute beckoning a client .
"Yeah. You know Kyla there are a lot hotties .I could hook you up with one .I know one he's a ride!Charlotte said smacking her lips.
" You know you need someone to take care of you. A big strong guy to hold on to .At least then you wont be so darn lonely"She added. See what I meant. Oh God why was this lift taking forever?I ignored Charlotte's last statement but she continued unperturbed.
"I mean who doesn't need a man. Right girls?
They all agreed with her unanimously.
Yeah. yeah. Totally!
" Like me I don't think I can survive a week without a man. How do you do it?Isn't it boring being a loner?
"Nope" I said straight and indifferent .I enjoyed my peace and quiet .I don't need so much drama and headache in my life.
Charlotte looked at me carefully.
" By the way,why are you back so early?
What I really wasn't ready to talk about neither lie about .I prayed for the lift to get to the tenth floor quick.
"And whats with the box .Is it a present from someone?Pls show me .I wont tell" She reached for the box .The door opened that instant and I rushed outside.
"See you later Charlotte" I said as I walked towards my apartment .Hers was just after mine .I quickly opened it to avoid any talk from Charlotte. I walked inside and shut it.
"Wait Kyla you haven't shown me the gift" I heard Charlotte shout from outside .I sighed .If I didn't answer her she'd keep bugging me.
"Later Charlotte"
"Okay .Don't forget! She said and I heard her door shut close .Thank God.
I dropped my box on the table close to the sofa. My place was well furnished and organized. I lived alone. But at times my younger sister Kiki comes over .I love it when she's around .We'd do a lot of things together to kill boredom but when I'm alone and bored, I just sit and watch TV. I sat carelessly on the sofa. I sighed. I'll get a new job soon. I hoped so. I got up and went to my room. I seriously needed a shower cause I smelt like barf. I got into the bathroom and turned on the shower. I felt a cool feeling as the water made contact with my skin. These were the moments I wished my annoying siblings were around to comfort me. To make me smile,laugh and forget my problems. I felt the aura of loneliness around me. I was lonely . Suddenly I felt the need to have someone who'd always be there for me. Maybe I did need a man in my life. Nah! I was just letting Charlotte's nonsense get to me. I'm better off on my own. Being my own boss and you know what I deserved a good pampering right about now. An exquisite dinner .So I should enjoy myself. I turned off the shower and decided to take a soak. I would give myself real Spa treatment.
After my long soak,I went out to this fancy Italian restaurant and had a terrific dinner all by myself. See I didn't need nobody cause I was okay with being all by myself. I was okay being all alone.
