Chapter 4

8:00am

The piercing sound of the alarm clock woke me up,I started to wriggle within my cosy bed .My eyes take in every ray of light and without a doubt I've slept too long

REINA: Ohhh God,i'm really dead. What excuse will I give

"Help me Lord".I rushed downstairs "

The house smelled of bacon mixed with some other exotic scent

Ohhh damn!!!,he has cooked already "I'm really scared"

REINA : Uhmmm...ian...I'm really sorry I overslept..I was so stressed out yesterday

IAN: Shut up!!! Can you just keep quiet!!

I gave you simple rules to follow! And you stand before me making up stories "I screamed"

REINA: "I was soo terrified"I cowered in the corner disquieted

I'm really sorry ian..it won't happen again "I said with a teary eye"

IAN : Firstly...you have no right to call me my name...so be formal with me And...please... stop with the tears "I rolled my eyes"

REINA: Okay sir...I promise to never repeat this " i said crying"

IAN: Good for you...I'm leaving for work,i won't be back today

REINA: Okay sir "didn't bother saying anything "

He stormed out angrily,banging the door as he left

My legs wobbled slightly.

I got on my knees and cried my heart out

For once,I thought of him as a saint yesterday

But,I guess I was totally wrong

I need to call mom..i quickly dialed her number "I wiped off my tears and acted happy"

MARTHA: hello Bebe,how was your journey...I'm guessing you slept off that's why you didn't call

REINA: Hey mom,yeah i did sleep off and forgot to call i miss you soo much mom " tears slid down my cheeks"..I'm not comfortable here,I want to leave here

I despise staying here...

MARTHA: It's alright Bebe,you'll be fine my darling...Be strong for your family...Remember what to say when you're in distress

REINA: The Lord is with me,Nothing is permanent "Mom taught us this lines when dad died and things got tough for us"

MARTHA: That's right Bebe,God is always with you,he watches over you every day..soo be brave my little angel

I love you soo much Bebe,Rex loves you and dad loves you

Take Care..." I could feel my daughter's distress and I can't be of any help to her,I'm such a bad mother "I sobbed"

REINA: "Mom should be blaming herself now"

Mom it isn't your fault,please don't be soo hard on yourself,I'm fine I swear, i just miss home a lot...

Take care mom...I love you

We talked for long before hanging up

I hung up...uhmm...I need to call Briar also..

BRIAR : Heyy girl...what's up whatcha doing,How's our man " I giggled"

REINA: Briar !!!"I rolled my eyes".Firstly..I have no man and I'm not really fine....

BRIAR :Why..What's wrong

I narrated everything that happened between Ian and i

BRIAR: You're at fault you know

REINA: "I knew she'll be on his side"...I overslept for crying out loud..I know I have to obey his absurd rules,but I fucking forgot!

BRIAR: I'm not taking anyone's side Reina,I'm just saying the truth..

This time, you were wrong

Try waking up early to avoid problems for yourself Reina

REINA: Woah...did i ever say you'll make an incredible judge

BRIAR: I'm blushing lol

I know already dhurrh " I said playfully

I have to go now,TTYL.

REINA : Okay bye...Take Care

"I can't really tell her I love her lol"

My stomach growled loudly

"I'm famished"

When I'm hungry i literally can't think of anything but food

I went to the kitchen...i made some bacon "I'm the best cook you know"

After eating,I did the dishes and retired to bed...

I decided to wear my sexy nightgown since Ian isn't home

...

...

I scrolled through my phone for the time being till i drifted off to sleep

8:00pm

I woke up to grab a glass of water to quench my thirst

I suddenly heard a loud noise...that echoed in my ears "Ian isn't coming home tonight,who could it be,or maybe a thief".The thought of that scared the hell out of me

I grabbed a stick and moved slowly down the stairs

I steadied myself and tried to calm down

Color drained from my face

I couldn't control my hands anymore they were shaking in an odd trembling rhythm

The door opened slowly

It sent shivers to my spine....

The door finally opened...I flung my stick immediately at the person

Please don't kill me " I begged"

I wondered why the thief isn't responding or acting

I moved my face slightly to be met with a confused Ian staring at me

REINA: Ohh sorry sir, you said you weren't coming back today,so i thought it was a thief "I bowed my head,waiting for another scolding"

IAN: "I burst out laughing loud,this girl is really a clown".soo Reina you holding a stick would have stopped the thief lol

Anyway...I finished early from work

I have another branch in California

REINA : okay sir...

I saw his face now focused on my nightgown

I became red in the face

He finally uttered a word after hours of staring lol

IAN : you..look nice " I muttered"

"I saw her blushing profusely"

"I want to kiss her succulent lips hungrily,but she may regard me as a pervert"

" I wanted to pass by,my body kept moving on its own accord towards her

REINA: Thanks...i smiled shyly..."he moved towards me and stared at my lips as i stared back"

" I knew it wasn't right..he's my boss after all...I couldn't stop my self from kissing him"

I initiated the kiss...

I approached his lips,closed my eyes and surprisingly got a warm welcome from his lips

Our tongues tangled,battling for dominance

"His lips tasted like honey"

I felt his breath warm against my face and his hands go to my waist

He slid his hands under my dress

He got the tip of a finger on my ****** and caressed it

He takes me to the table,pushing the chairs aside he kissed me passionately....

He suddenly moved,breaking our intense kiss

IAN :I'm sorry....I crossed my boundaries...this won't repeat itself again I promise

"I didn't want to cross my boundaries,so I broke the kiss"

"I really don't want my past incident to repeat itself

REINA: I'm sorry i kissed you out of the blue sir " I lowered my head"

" yeah,I'm not sorry,this is the best kiss I've everrrr experienced"

We bade each other goodnight and proceeded to bed

I thought about the kiss all night long until I gradually slept
