Lost for choice

Sabrina's pov

Today had been perfect in all sense. I got my Jake back and I got the opportunity to honestly tell him what I felt about him and I wasn't ashamed. I was happy to have made him aware that I wanted him as badly as he did me. I even told him that if he would ask, I would be open to go on dates with him and even marry him. To a third person, it might have seemed hasty, not careful, or even easy but in my heart, I knew there was no man for me but him and despite our past in which we were victims of circumstance, we were better off happy together than apart and miserable.

As he drove me home, his kiss still lingered on my lips and I wanted to feel that for the rest of my life. I subconsciously touched my lips and he noticed and man did it make him happy. He kept joking asking, "My woman was the kiss too hot? I could always cool it for you." And he was beginning to irritate me so I turned on the radio to silence him.

When we got to the apartment, Jay was fast asleep and so was the babysitter so I went to the bedroom to change into some cozy nightwear. When I returned with his pajamas that he had left last he was here, the ones I had shamelessly been sniffing his scent and perfume on when I missed him, he was fast asleep on the couch and he looked so peaceful, calm, and handsome to eat. I loosened his tie and belt, took the blanket I had prepared to cover him. As I was leaving, his arm grabbed me and in no minute I was spooned beside him on the couch. He murmured in his sleep, "don't leave me Sabbie I love you." It warmed my heart to know that even in his subconscious mind he loved me and I loved him too but I was going to wait until he said it first face to face, not in his sleep.

We were awoken from our slumber by Jay's shrill voice crying and as I untangled myself from Jake's embrace, Jake cursed under his breath, "a man can't enjoy sleeping peacefully with his woman" and I laughed at him as to how he was jealous of a three months old baby for wanting his mom. Once Jay was breastfed and full I handed him to Jake who was making my baby giggle happily from the funny faces he was making. They indeed had missed each other. I embarked on making pancakes for breakfast. We were seated on the couch munching on our breakfast when we decided to watch some TV. As I scrolled through the channels, one interesting one came up, "Jake Mazuri, the most eligible, rich, and handsome bachelor in town is lost for choice. Yesterday at the launch of Mr. K hotels, where he was spotted arriving for the event with a professional date for hire, Brenda Shagari and later throughout the night seen with his arm candy, manager, Sabrina Zawadi who he was spotted kissing in the hotel after the event had ended. An important fact to remember is that Sabrina is the scandalous woman who murdered his father in cold blood. Has Sabrina bewitched our bachelor with her charms and what about Brenda who was spotted leaving the hotel in fury. There is a story here and dear viewers stay tuned as Brenda Shagari answers our questions tonight in our 'hot topic tonight.'

Jake grabbed the remote from my hands and switched the TV. He stood up furious and made a call shouting, " Robert, you are my lawyer, I don't care what amount of money it's going to cost but I want that story gone or I will sue that TV station and everyone working for it. I am giving you twenty-four hours."
