Chapter 14

I was whooping around my new bitch!

Yeah, you heard me right! My new Bentley arrived this morning and the excitement am having is too much for only me to handle. Who can I beg to share it with me?

This is so too much.

There are some things that calls for celebration in your life but you're just too happy to talk. All I could do was scream. I've been screaming for the past ten minutes and still counting.

Dude! This car is clean inside – out!

My family came out and saw me jubilating. I don't think they understood my reasons but they're sure to witness the bad bitch parked beside me.

I don't even know what to do anymore. The happy syndrome is toning my belly. I feel like fainting and waking up. Am going to go numb if I don't stay calm and control my emotions.

If this was a purposal gift from George, then am ever ready to say a big 'Yes' to all he'll tell me.

From the inside – the seats are still untouched. They're sealed – in fact, everything inside are sealed with transparent nylons. The car's black color from the outside is super shining and sparkling clean.

I can see my reflection on the door like a mirror. The windows are tinted as far as the front and back whiskey. The headlights are cool. I think am gonna love it more at night.

Pom pom! Did you hear that sound?

That's me pushing the horn button.

Damn! This thing is driving me psycho.

I brought my hand out of the window and waved at my family. I witnessed the amazing smile on their faces. My aunties ran towards me to check out my new bang bang.

Mom pulled Dad's hand with her but the stubborn man refused and let her go alone instead.

I came out of the car after turning on the radio.

Thank you Adekunle Gold ft Davido. As their song 'High' played loudly from the car.

Why didn't I sight George amongst the crowd?

Oh, there he is. Walking out majestically with a phone on his ear while he carried Corey on his other arm. But he looks so dressed up in a business outfit.

Wait, I haven't took my bath yet and am late for work but do I look like I care? I have something important to fuck with and that is this bitch right here!

"Honey, it's here! My bitch is here!" I beamed immediately he hung up and stood in a distance, staring at me.

A deep chuckle escapes his mouth and he just nod his head at me. "I hope you like it."

"Like?" Isn't that supposed to be an understatement? "Babe, I fucking love it!" I exclaimed. I touch the top of the car, rubbing my hand on it. "Am gonna be fucking with this bitch non-stop."

He started walking towards me. A wicked grin on his lips. "Okay. Why you fuck with her, I'll be out for a while." He pecked my lips. "Am taking Corey to his new school today."

"Oh!" How could I possibly forgot that the both of us are supposed to go there together. Anyway, he has the address, so that's not a problem. "Okay." My smile widened to my ears.

He pat my cheek softly and smiled. "You're getting too excited. It's just a car."

He thinks. But for me, this is not JUST a car.

"Honey, it cost a fortune, so it's not ordinary."

"If I tell you it is, you'll still argue with me. So no need to bargain with you." He tuck his hand into his pants' pocket and brought out a keycard. "Here, have this." He gave it to me and I accepted without asking questions. "That's for my office. Take over it for just today because I don't know when I might return."

"Do you have somewhere else going after Corey's?" I asked, confused.

"Yeah." He exhaled sharply and tuck one hand into his pocket. "My grandfather is coming to town today. I'll have to go pick him at the airport then take him to my family mansion, but first, after I drop Corey at school, I'll go see Greg. We have an executive meeting with some clients from Stockholm. But don't worry about picking Corey from school, I'll have his chauffeur do it later."

For a moment, I felt sad like am missing him already when he hasn't even left.

I heaved a deep breath but that sigh surely shows my expression.

What about later? Won't he return and spend the night with me? Am I just gonna keep on fucking with my new Uber?

His brows furrowed when I didn't say anything for a while and just stare at nothing. "Sweetheart…." He lifted my chin to face him. As if he read my mind…he said, "I'll come back late but I can't promise, okay? I'll have one of my guards follow you….."

"No, am fine…." I objected calmly. I don't like being followed. "I can manage. Just be safe." I smiled but that one smile is very weak.

He rose one of his brows. "I insist, okay? You'll be returning alone at night and it's not safe, so allow me do the honor." He stole a kiss on my lips. "I'll call you – and always keep me in touch if you misunderstand anything in the office, okay?"

"Okay."

"Don't ask Martins or Timothy. Just call me, understood? My phone will be open for your calls throughout."

I nodded and he sighed and kissed the top of my head before walking towards his car. I watched him drive out of the compound with Corey seated at the passenger side.

It felt like today was gonna be the last day I'll see him. I don't know why but I just feel like am going to miss him too much. Have I been craving too much of him lately?

Since we started sleeping on the same bed recently, I got used to not leaving alone again. Now if he's not around for one night, I don't think I'd be able to close my eyes and sleep.

The euphoria feeling I had for my new car earlier, wasn't flowing in me anymore. It mixed up with three things.

Sweet. Sour. Bitter.
