Your Secret?

“Let me get this straight, do you intend for me to be your slut?” Lanre questioned K, but it was only in her head. She was still trying to catch her breath which he constantly steals away with his kiss. And when he finally stopped to look at her flushed face and lips that had become more tempting.

“I will call off the engagement with Ify. Then we can run away”. K said. Lanre scoffed. She steps back from him.

“Run away you say? Wow! You want me to be your secret or what? Are you not proud of me?” Lanre asked. K’s lips became heavy with words he could not spill out. He didn’t know what to say.

She scoffs again. “It is all good you know! I’m not wealthy enough to be shown off to the world. You sure do know what goes and what doesn’t. Just like how Ify could get a public engagement and I, a secret proposal”. Lanre said to K. He grabs her violently.

“Shut up! Shut it and stop trying to make me feel guilty. You fucking would have rejected me even if I made a public proposal to you”. K said.

“Besides, our relationship was a sudden one”. K said to her. Lanre asked him if his relationship with Ify was not sudden as well. He could not answer. She laughed as though someone had cracked a joke. K asked her to stop laughing. It was irritating to him. But Lanre would not listen to him. He seized her by the throat and yet she still continued to laugh. She seemed to be enjoying it and it frustrated K even more.

“Olanrewaju stop it!” K said gritting his teeth. But Lanre kept the smile on her lips unfading. K pushed her down on the couch. He leaned into her and held her neck. His eyes staring into hers but she seemed to be hiding a lot. Her eyes seem baseless. It was an abyss he could not reach.

“Why are you hiding so much within those beautiful eyes”. He said.

“What are you muttering about?” Lanre asked pretending as though she did not hear what he said. He smirked and took her lips in his. Lanre bit his lips and told him it was irritating that he has been kissing her much lately. K frowned. He placed his thumb on her lips.

“Sassy huh! I like the fact that you still act tough when you are left with no option but to let me in”. K said to her. She tries to push him away.

“I do not know what you are thinking, but I do not want to get tangled up with you. I certainly do not wish to”. Lanre said. K held her wrists tightly placing her hand over her head.

“I want you just like ever! I want to make love to you Olanrewaju Olayinka”. K said to her. She bit her lips as chills went up her spine.

“Kehinde, we shouldn’t”. Her voice sounded hoarse. It only made K want to do the opposite of what she said.
