Promise

Her beauty dazzled like the sun just like her complexion, her gait towards him was gentle and steady as her wide hips swayed as she walked, her long strapless gown moulded her figure into an hour glass and for a minute Jidenna's breath siezed as he beheld God's creature before him, Adaorah stood before him and pushed him slightly and he fell on the bed in her room, then she climbed on him caressing his bare chest as she straddled him. Jidenna was in paradise , he wanted this moment to last forever,Adaorah's face were an inch away from his about to kiss him and he pouted his lips to receive hers when a slap brought him back to reality,he jumped up suddenly looking around to know who spoiled his beautiful moment when he saw Adaorah laughing at him,he cursed under his breath as he realised it was a dream."What were you doing,looks like you were having a good time with your babe" Adaorah said raising an eye brow at him with her hands under her chin" No o,it's just some funny dreams,it's nothing" he replied scratching the back of his head and praying she wouldn't ask further"Speaking about dreams,the nightmares are back and they are more scary and i so worried about it"Jidenna adjusted to her drawing her close to him to comfort her" Don't worry you're gonna be okay,the nightmares will stop and you'll have nothing to worry about,trust me".Adaorah sighed smiling at Jidenna who hugged her,patting her like he was taking the nightmare away from her."It's 5:30 am,you have to go before my parents wakes up and find you here"Adaorah said getting up from with Jidenna hurrying to put his shoes on and grabbing his phone on her dresser.They tip toed out her room,down the stairs to the living room which was still dark and to the front door.They raced to the gate and asked the gate man to open the it for him,they waved goodbye and Jidenna left then she warned the gate man not to tell her parents that Jidenna ever came to the house.Adaorah walked back to the house and getting to the front door she saw her mother standing at the door,she startled upon seeing her feared she would suspect her"Nne what are you doing outside by this time,it's still early"she asked as Adaorah stood looking at her mother not knowing the right words to use "Mummy you're awake, well I'm just looking around the house and i was about to begin my morning excercise but maybe I'll do it later, you're right it's still early"she was smiling sheepishly at her mother as she walked past her mother and went inside the house with her mother still wondering what Adaorah would be doing outside but she shrugged it off and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

Jidenna got home running up the stairs to his flat and found the door locked from outside,he leaned against the door and called Chima's number but he wasn't picking.He tried again a second time and he picked"Wetin happen na una no dey check time before una call pesin"Chima voice at the other end was not clear as he was still sleeping and he hated being disturbed"Chima it's me ,can you please open the door I'm outside,and please hurry up before mummy wakes up"Jidenna pleaded with him and hanged up waiting for his brother to open the door. He heard footsteps ascending the stairs and he turned and saw Kate,the landlord's daughter climbing the stairs unsteadily,her tight short dress with her cleavage in view was inviting, she just came back from a night club and she tipsy.She has been making advances to Jidenna but he wasn't interested in her,she was loose and wasn't his type of girl,his relationship with his girlfriend was no longer on a solid ground because Adaorah was now on his radar, though his girlfriend hasn't noticed yet but he was getting tired of the friendship level he's having with Adaorah and he wants to be more than friends but it hasn't crossed Adaorah's mind ever since and it's makes him feel bad."Jidenna how are you, didn't know you'll be outside by this time, always looking handsome"Kate said touching his chin which he removed her hand immediately and she laughed"Well I'll see you later, bye" she waved at him and continued ascending the stairs, her legs shaking as she walked.The sound of the door unlocking was what he needed to hear and Chima opened the door and he rushed inside the house to his room, closing the door behind him to avoid any conversation with Chima who didn't care to talk to him either but went to his room to continue his sleep.Jidenna jumped on his bed with a smile ascross his face remembering his silly dream when his phone rang and it was Adaorah "Are you home already ?" she asked"Yeah just got in, I'm lying on my bed now thinking of you"he replied as Adaorah scoofed" I hear you Mr thinker, don't you have Doris to think of "Jidenna rolled his eyes knowing she would mention her name" I know but it's you here now Doris can come in later"Adaorah sighed shaking her head" Look if you don't like this girl you can tell her, instead of rasing her hopes high, I've never heard you talk about her since I came back and I've not seen you two together for a long time now"Jidenna wasn't liking where the conversation was going and wished it would stop"Listen we're good and I love her it's just that I've been a bit busy with work and school and she understands"he knew he was lying and hated he did so but it was just to save the situation"Okay o, alright I'll talk to you later,see ya" and she ended the call leaving Jidenna with thoughts on how to make Adaorah understand his feelings towards her.
