The Lust Chapter

My obsession

Femi was so quiet throughout his drive...I could tell that he wasn't happy about everything that had been going on for some days now. I knew he felt he was being too harsh on his fiancee which was truly uncalled for and disrespectful...I would eventually feel the same way if I was in a situation like that.

"Are you okay"

I finally decided to break the undying silence that made me feel so guilty for being there.

"Are you worried about me?" Then he smiled..

"A lot has been going on lately and I just want to apologize for being in the center of this argument and disagreement between you two"

"You are not in the center of anything at all... it's my fault for putting you in such a mess"

"Mess?...I am not in a mess"

"You can't even walk"

"It won't last forever... the doctor said it was just for some time"

"But still....I...."

"I am fine...you don't need to worry about me or talk to your fiancee the way you did earlier just because you feel guilty about what happened to me...I am doing amazing "

"Don't let what I said to Lorra bother you"

"Of course it would bother me...you are making me feel like a home wreaker"

"That is a total lie and you know it"

Then we both laughed....the whole mood in the car changed and I was so happy that he smiled finally and he looked extremely gorgeous...

"Has anyone ever told you that you look so pretty?"

Wait a minute.....did this man just call me pretty?whatttt? I immediately felt butterflies jumping in my stomach..I was so excited to be called pretty by a beautiful man like Femi.

"If this is what you call pretty...i think you need glasses"

"You think you are not pretty??"

"Well..I wouldn't call myself pretty"

"You are very beautiful....and I love it when you smile...you have beautiful teeth's"

"Thank you."

I felt so good at that point and I had an amazing time with Femi in the car.

Finally....we got to his beautiful apartment and he helped me get down from the car.

"Can I carry you into the house?

"Wait....w..w ..what?"

"I mean, it's a duplex and you can't possibly climb the stairs on your wheelchair...so can I carry you?"

"Eh,..I...em.."

Before I could process my answers....Femi already lifted me up.

"Are you shy?." He asked smiling.

His face was almost touching mine so I found it hard to speak...mind you I haven't brushed that morning.

"I will send Ada to go get you a toothbrush, okay?"

Now, I was embarrassed..he took me straight to a room where he layed me on the bed and left to get my wheelchair.

I so much admired the room where he had kept me...it was so much better than all the rooms I had entered in lorra's place.

Soon....he was there with my wheelchair.

"I already sent Ada to get you a toothbrush...and I asked my sister Shola to make you breakfast"

"You have a sister that stays with you?"

"Are you uncomfortable with that?"

"No, no, no, no, of course not"

"She is a really nice girl...she adorable"

"Of course she would be..."

"I will be going off to work, okay? Ada and Shola are here if you need anything at anytime."

"What if I needed to speak with you?"

"Oh, oh my goodness..I totally forgot that I crashed your phone..I am so sorry"

"No, it's fine."

"So.. should I get you a 14 or 15? Which do you prefer?"

"An iphone? I wasn't even using an iphone"

"Rita....can I get you a 14 or 15?"

"Eh ...em...11 or 12 is fine"

"Then, 15 it is" he opened the door and left.

Femi's Place felt like home... everybody was nice, Shola was such a sweet heart just like her brother described. She would help me wash my clothes that femi had gotten for me, she would cook and clean my room every morning...Shola was such a darling and I love her Soo much.

Ada on the other hand was such an amazing person. She was such a good listener and advider...and she would sometimes tell me storied about her and her family... Everybody at Femi's place was so nice and cool.. including the gateman Moses and his driver Benard who took me to the hospital every two days for my check up...after a couple of days ....I stopped using a wheelchair chair and was told to use Clutches because I was getting better... Femi didn't talk about Lorra for about a week or so... neither did Shola or ada..

It felt like Lorra was an imaginary fiancee or a fiancee that nobody liked. I was somehow happy that nobody talked about her...because personally, I didn't like her at all.

I rarely saw Femi at home...he always left in the morning around 6 and came back around 11....it was hard for me because I really wanted to bond with Femi more.

Crazy right?...I know..but I couldn't help but think about him day and night..I knew I was becoming obsessed with him when I would stay up all night waiting for him to come back. But either I slept off or I went upstairs,tired. I feared that Femi would not be able to see me the way he used to...I had spent about two weeks at his place and I knew he was tired of seeing me.

One Tuesday morning...after having breakfast and was ready to go to the hospital with Ben. I figured out that Femi's car was still packed in the compound and I thought 'maybe he hasn't left for work so I went up to his room and knocked.

"Come in" he said and I made my way through the opened door.

I found Femi laying on the bed shirtless.. looking so sexy and hot... OMG...I immediately looked away...I could not believe that I was sharing the same space as this perfect man.

My heart wouldn't stop beating so fast and I felt my whole body shaking.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah,...eeeh, I mean, yes....eh....I...I am..em..I"

"Are you shy to look at me? Have you not seen a shirtless man before?"

"I...I just...I mean..I ...I was just em" I couldn't say anything and it started to embarrass me....all I did was stutter everytime I opened my mouth to speak.

"Look at me" wait...he didn't just say that right?

"Rira....look at me"

'Rira?' he actually called me Rira'

"Did you...did you..I mean did just call me Rira?"

"You don't like it?"

"No,no....I just..eeh..I was just surprised"

"I just felt like Rira suits you more than Rita"

"Could...could you please put a shirt on? I can't look at you like that"

"You know.. you should get used to seeing me shirtless... because I don't wear clothes when I am at home"

"That is inappropriate"

"Turn around...and stop being so shy"

"I think I should come back later..' I immediately opened the door and left...for a minute, I couldn't breathe...I just stood at his door trying to catch my breath before going downstairs...then I heard him say

"Are you trying to catch your breath?"

OMG Why does he know too much?????.
