Chapter 1 1
** Cynthia GUEU **
Denial: I'm in love with you Cynthia.
What me ?
I look at Denis waiting for him to tell me he's joking but nothing, I burst out laughing uncontrollably. That's the funniest thing anyone's said to me in three years. I laugh till my ribs hurt!!
Me: What did you say? (I sit down laughing) No, you're not serious... You Denis? In love with me? Oh my God I can't laugh anymore.
Denis: What's funny?
Me: Oh, can't you see? Okay wait, I'm getting serious again. (I clear my throat). Honey coco you and me it's just for fun, nothing else, so sorry quickly suppress the feelings. Besides, I even think that we will stop seeing each other. Tchieu what do you want to put me in? Love ? Sorry, I'm leaving before you ask me to marry you.
I take my bag and leave his house. Little fun one wants to make there him he wants to put in real real. Hmm, that bullshit doesn't work with me anymore. Ko I love you, shit. It was because I spent the night at his house that he had the courage to tell me that. That's why I don't spend more than three months with a guy. You just want to have fun and they take it seriously. They say nice things to you and then break your heart. My eyes are open now so no one will get me. I finish taking my shower once at home, I take a nap until 11:30 a.m. and as I am bored I decide to go get Maya to have lunch with her. She works in the company LES MAISONS ET BATIMENTS YOUL abbreviated MBY. I get there in less than 30 minutes. As soon as I take a step into the building, I see the big boss Mr. Terry YOUL arriving, bent as always in a suit that fits him like a glove, accompanied by his faithful bodyguard and two others who work here. I quickly pull over into a corner so as not to be in his way. When it passes everyone stands at attention. He's not bad but physically he's scary. Someone we never see his eyes because they are always hidden behind sunglasses, it is better not to provoke him because we do not know what he is thinking exactly. Once he is outside I see people sighing, as if they had held their breath during his passage. I run to find Maya in her office before the guy turns around. I walk into his office without knocking.
Me: I say Maya how do you work with Terry YOUL?
Maya: He's not mean, just too serious. I ended up getting used to him and I know how to behave myself so as not to attract his wrath. Well here we go I'm starving my darling.
We go to the small restaurant a little far away. I tell her a bit about my adventure with Dénis this morning when I don't know why my eyes leave Maya's face to go to rest on the face of someone who is sitting right behind her. She follows my gaze and when she sees who I'm looking at, she shakes her head. Jessica starts beating in my underwear. I look at this fair-skinned handsome guy in front of me and keep saying to myself, "Cynthia, you need it." Yes I need. He's too handsome, too cute, too sexy, too hummm for me to let him slip through my fingers. I no longer have a guy to warm me up so he will do the trick. When he smiles looking at his cell phone my heart skips a beat. Ouch, my eyes hurt. Beauty owed him a debt so in compensation she poured herself on him in large quantities.
Maya: Stop looking at my colleague like that.
Me (in a low voice): What? Damn Maya you know this kind of creature and you don't even introduce it to me. No, you are a witch.
Maya: Cynthia stop looking at him like that. You're going to end up looking like a bitch here.
Me: Madame Molière, sorry, drop me here. No for real, this guy is hot
Maya (looking down): I know.
He looks up at me and our eyes meet. I pretend to eat so he doesn't think I'm spying on him. Well at the same time that's kind of what I do. If I knew that by inviting Maya to lunch today I was going to come across such a miracle, I would have made myself all dapper. Look at the dress I'm wearing. I bought it at 600 fcfa at the market. All because I wanted to get some fresh air so I have some very nice dresses in my wardrobe. In any case, this is the last time I leave the house dressed like this. Alright, I don't care.
Me: Maya tell me where you know him exactly.
Maya: We are currently work colleagues but we have known each other since high school. He is the big brother of the one who was my classmate and best friend from high school to university before you and I met.
Me: So life put it back in your way like that. Hmm it's because of me.
Maya: Don't even think about putting him on the list of your many suitors there. I warn you.
Me: That's not at your level anymore.
Maya: Cynthia!!!
Me: Hey Saint Maya let me breathe in peace no. What is there even? My darling look at it arrives towards us.
I start to laugh to pretend that we are in the middle of a debate in a conversation. With each step that brings him closer to our table, my heart takes a dance step. It is first its perfume that reaches us. Virgin Mary Mother of God! That guy smells good!
Him: Maya!
I haven't even finished smelling her perfume when her voice disturbs me. Cynthia you have a real male in front of you. It must not escape you.
Maya: Oh Ryan. I didn't know you were having lunch here.
Ryan: It was not planned. An old friend invited me.
I clear my throat to tell my very dear best friend that I'm here in case she forgot.
Maya: Oh Ryan, this is Cynthia, my best friend and roommate. Cynthia Ryan a longtime friend and colleague.
Me (in a sultry voice): Pleased my dear Ryan.
Ryan: Me too. Well, I'm going to leave. The break is already over. Cynthia looking forward to seeing you again.
Me: Me too.
Ryan: Maya are we going together or are you going to take a little more time?
Me: Oh we're already done. I will return.
Ryan (to me): Are you coming with us or...???
Me: Oh please, Ryan, we can talk on familiar terms. Well if you don't mind.
Ryan (smiling): Of course not. So let's go ?
Maya: Yes.
We all get up and head for the door. Once outside, Ryan shows us his car and unlocks it. This is a beautiful black AVENSIS in the sports car style.
Ryan: Are we dropping you off somewhere?
Me: Yes I have to go shopping in the store just a few meters before your building.
Maya opens her eyes wide in surprise, she knows that I'm lying but doesn't say anything because she understands that it's a way for me to get closer to this hot handsome man. During the whole trip, it's only Ryan and I talking. Maya, she just manipulates her laptop sitting in the back seat. I'm not going to complain about it. I send out conversation starters and subtly educate myself about Ryan's life. He plastered a smile on his lips and it hasn't left him since. He is cute when he smiles especially with his beautiful white teeth. No, I have to do this guy. When we arrive in front of the store I refrain from saying a swear word because we arrived too quickly. I don't mind giving him a kiss on the cheek as a thank you. I wink at Maya who rolls her eyes and walk down. Once the car is back on the road, I write a message to Maya: "Make sure you get in touch with us. I want it. ". I take a taxi home with a smile on my face. I am Cynthia GUEU and I like guys. Handsome guys with everything you need, where you need it. I am not a prostitute nor an easy woman. No. I like handsome guys but I don't sleep with all of them. I have principles. I date several men whom I consider to be my pigeons so I take advantage of their deep pockets. I am not looking for a serious relationship because my previous ones were catastrophic. I chained disappointments in love after disappointment and there I had my dose. So I decided to just have fun and from the start I meant it to avoid misunderstandings. I am a party girl, outgoing and always ready to set the mood. In any case, if you're friends with me, be sure that you're going to talk a lot, even if generally I don't take anything back from what I'm told. Let's say that I have a lot of things in my head to kill me to remember everything that is said to me.
As soon as Maya enters our apartment, I jump on her all excited.
Me: So tell me he said something about me?
Maya: Good evening my beautiful, yes I had a very nice day and you?
Me: Hooorrr leave that. If you're stopped in front of me, you're fine. So I listen to you.
Maya (going to sit down): How nice you look and how beautiful you are.
Me: Yes!
The door opens again to Olivia, our other best friend and roommate. The three of us met at university when we were in Bachelor's degree and since then we have not separated. As I said, I'm more of a bandit, Olivia is the happy medium. She knows when to have fun and when to stop for work. Maya, she is the saint, the calmest, the sweetest, the most serious. Finally, the embodiment of perfection. She likes to play the role of the big sister even if I am the oldest of the three of us and she is the second. Well there is only 1 year between us and her and Olivia are the same age. Maya is just months old. Every time I make a gourd, it's Maya who comes to the rescue while Olivia she pats me on the wrist. Olivia is the type to not walk her words. What she thinks she tells you and come what may. Maya tells you the truth with more gentleness, tenderness.
Olivia (closing the door): Hello girls.
Me: There you go. I need advice on how to get closer to a super hot and sexy guy.
Olivia: What are you in love with?
What me ? Nope ! I just want to charm him and have him near me without it being something really serious.
Olivia: And who is it again?
Me: A long time friend at Maya.
Maya: Ryan Krizo.
Olivia: Ryan Krizo? The same one you told us about?
Maya: Yes.
Me: Really? Have you ever talked about him? I don't remember.
Olivia: Cynthia you only remember the dates of your diesel (show) apart from that, nothing. I wonder how you're doing at work. But I thought you were Denis.
Me: Excuse me, leave him there. I'm done with him now I'm moving on. So like I said, I need this guy urgently girls.
Olivia: And you Maya, do you agree with that?
Maya: Well if she wants to, she does. Anyway, he doesn't seem like someone looking for a serious relationship.
Me: So that's good. OK, let me suggest something. Since you've found each other now, I suggest you invite him to dinner this week and like talk about the good old days. In addition you told me that he had just returned to the country so he must be a little lonely and out of place.
Olivia: You just met him and you're already so excited about him. You should calm down a bit. He may have a girlfriend.
Me: So let him tell me himself otherwise I consider him free. So Maya what are you saying?
Maya: OK, that's understood, I'll talk to him about it and see what he's going to say.
Me (hugging her): Ooh thank you you are a love my friend. That's why I love you so much.
Maya: I love you too.
Olivia: Let's go back to Denis. I thought you were starting to like it.
Me: This is precisely one of the reasons that led me to break up with him. I don't want to make love love. I prefer that we stop before this attraction turns into real love.
Olivia: He was good though.
Me: I know that. But I feel better alone. Okay back to Ryan. I have to think about buying myself a new dress and all that goes with it. You kinda see what I mean.
They shake their heads while I keep thinking about the hot night I'm going to spend with him and if it's a good shot, I think I'll keep it to myself for an eternity.
