Chapter 38

I didn't bother calling Emeka back. I knew he was waiting for me, I felt it. I wanted to see him as fast as I could and calling him back would take some minutes of the time I would eventually get to spend with him. I didn't want that.

Hearing his voice was awesome, but seeing him_seeing him was everything.

After taking my bath I hurriedly wore my clothes and rushed to the faculty as fast as I could. The wind hit my face as I walked in a haste_I started feeling really cold. I wrapped my hands around my chest but I didn't slow down even a bit not until I reached the faculty.

I called him when I was there already. Another reason why I didn't call him earlier was because I didn't want him to discourage me from coming. To convince me from doing what was good for me. Seeing him was good better than following orders.

He was the real good. I didn't need to be protected from him.

"Hey Emeka." I said into the receiver. My voice came out in puffs of shortened breath. I felt stupid for putting on a skimpy gown without at least wearing a Jacket. Evening outside was always cold. I should have known better indeed. I guess I was more interested in looking pretty for him than I was about my health.

"Hey babe." He replied. He sounded as if he was close to me.

I felt him around, his scent filled the air I breathed. I was about to laugh and dismiss my intuition that he was around me somewhere, as me being crazy for him when I felt a hand wrap around my waist me from behind. His lips slightly touched my neck. I was shrunken, literally. My soul must have jumped out of my body along with my heart.

"Emeka seriously!" I squeaked. "Don't do that." I removed his hands from my waist and turned back to meet his eyes after I made sure to drop the call.

He was putting on a face cap that covered half his face and with his glasses, he looked beautiful.

"And you say you're not shy." He laughed, holding me even more possessively. He pulled me to his chest and my heart stopped. I tried to look away when I started to feel my cheeks flush but then I couldn't. He was the view.

"I'm not shy but that does not mean that I do well with public display of emotions. And this," I rolled my eyes, pointing to the cap he had on. "Why are you putting on a face cap anyway." I asked.

We both started walking to our cave. I couldn't get rid of the amused look on my face even though I was starting to feel really nervous.

"It is to bring out my obvious handsomeness." He grinned.

"Or to hide your bald head." I retorted then I laughed and laughed again. He removed his hands from mine and turned to leave after watching me in the way that showed that I had pushed his button. What do I gain if I don't push it?

I Followed him then I held on to his arms making him stop on his tracks. My hands went round his stomach. "Common I was only just joking." I said with a straight face trying my best to sniffle my laughter, but it came out anyway.

Although, he pretended to be angry I knew he was not at least he was not as angry as he wanted to be. His eyes were amused.

"You are very annoying you know that? Its like you make it a point of duty to annoy me every time and that is very annoying." He frowned and it made Me laugh all the more. I knew that I was acting like a small witch but I couldn't stop myself. The expression he always had on his face whenever he was angry at me_just makes my day.

"Ok sorry." I laughed, obviously showing no signs of remorse. "I'm sorry na." I pouted.

"Bitch!" He grinned then smacked my ass. We both chuckled then he took my hands while we walked together to the back of the building just opposite the faculty. Our little cave.
