::::::: THE HEART OF A WOMAN ::::::: ::::::: EPISODE 4 ::::::: As i prepared to leave early the next morning, he carried me on his laps, kissing my neck profusely. “I hope last night meant a lot to you?, because it did to me. I’m so scared of many things” he whispered and bit my right ear. My body quickly lit up again. I felt intense heat underneath. “seriously you don’t have a girlfriend?” i asked curiously, my feminine feelings taking control of me. He breathed deeply and dropped his eyes. “no girl likes a boy who has nothing to offer. I have no girlfriend, moreover it hasn’t been long i started working for you and It will be foolish of me to go after girls when i have loads of things to do. For example, i rented this little apartment with all my savings, immediately you employed me” he explained calmly, kissing my neck again. “but working with you got me to see life in a different perceptive. It made me realise that sometimes, the things we climb up the mountain to search could be within our very reach without us realising it. Working with you got me to see what a real woman is all about. A real woman is divine, strong, ambitious, passionate, friendly, helpful and overly beautiful. It took me two days of working in your hotel to fall in love with you. I had to hide it of course, but it wasn’t easy till last night when the feelings overwhelmed me” he spoke nicely, caressing me as he showered me with beautiful words. I never knew a Nigerian could be so romantic with words. “so what do you want with me?” i managed to ask. He breathed deeply and licked his lips, “my intention is to lock you up and spend every moment of my life worshipping you” he replied and made for my lips with great passion. I was so carried away by the euphoria of his romance. My lonely heart couldn’t sense the deception in him. To me he was my ideal man, my creation, my everything. “you can move in with me if you want. My place is very big and empty which you know. We can stay together while i use my connections to find you a better job” i offered with a pure heart. “no no i can’t be a burden to you. I’m so ashamed, i have my pride to protect” he murmured with a coloured face which made him look very innocent. I hugged him calmly, my eyes wet with tears. It’s really hard for we ladies to fall in love, but when it does happen, we do fall with all we have got. We do fall with our body and soul. I told Amara all about the new plans i had for kelvin but unfortunately she wasn’t too pleased with it. “i’m not against you helping someone in need, but doing it for love or to get something in return is what i won’t approve. I need not go further in this silly idea of yours” she said with a smile, expertly waving the topic aside. I paid no heed to her and went ahead with my plans, travelled to Abuja days later and met Maj. Gen. Johnson who was a family friend and a very influential Army officer. He had strong connections with the ruling class and was in a good position to help. I presented Kelvin’s case to him and had a hard time convincing him to help. He finally agreed after striking a deal with me. Three weeks later, kelvin got a very lucrative position at the federal ministry of finance. To him It was a dream come true. The love we made the night we got the news really was very stunning. He took me to paradise a hundred times over. “you are more than an angel” he kept whispering in my ear all through the night. ____ He left for Abuja days later with his hopes, plans and expectations on the high side. I made sure he had everything he needed, virtually paying for all of them. Our relationship continued as i hoped, We spoke almost every hour and we equally visited each-other as often as possible. Each visit revealed how well he was doing for himself. In the first week of december 2009, he was used on a money laundering scheme {which really was the deal i struck with the Army General months back with my position as surety. It was because of the laundering scheme that he got the job in the ministry of finance}. He returned a week later with his share of the loot. A very substantial amount which could make a bank manager gasp with wonder. He came running back to me, full of gratitude and love, surprising me with stunning gifts which left me totally happy. Everything was going as i wanted. I was so happy, very happy. He proposed the next day, Sending my happiness to the limit. “will you marry me?” he asked as we showered together after a night of passion. I couldn’t believe my ears, “huh?” i murmured, cleaning my face with speed. I opened my eyes to see a well shaped golden ring greeting me with its sparkle. “so what are your plans?” i asked hours later as we lazily laid beside each other on my bed. He breathed deeply, kissed me and smiled. I really was on top of the world, i havn’t felt so happy in a long time. I stared at the beautiful ring on my finger, my head swelled with satisfaction. Episode 5 is next,and will be posted@ 05:00AM
