LOVE STRIVE

Chapter 3

Jessica and Maxwell were gradually beginning to wax stronger in love, as it was crystal clear to everyone around. It became a daily routine that they both tried at all cost to beat resumption time so as to meet early enough at the parking lot and to start their day walking into the office together smiling and gisting.

On several occasions, Jessica an exceptional cook had brought several local delicacies to Maxwell at the office. It beats Maxwell's imagination how she wakes early enough to make all that and still resume work before 7am. In return Maxwell had prepared couple of lunch orders for her to compliment her sweet and nice gesture.

Five weeks of dating seems like they had been into each other for ages, from Maxwell's past experiences he had concluded and qualified love with lots of unworthy adjectives like: love is a scam, love is wicked, love us not for the poor and lots more. But his affair with Jessica dawned on him that love isn't a scam but it's unfortunate that he had been in love with series of emotional fraudster.

Few weeks later, Jessica was sent on a trip for five days, though they communicated on phone daily but Maxwell still felt empty for not performing their daily routine of meeting at the parking lot, starting their day with gists before work commences, eating from her lunch box and rushing to beat his 4pm closure target so they could seat in either of their cars gossiping about their day for close to an hour before driving home.

This love is infectious, though they haven't had s*x. Maxwell would have tried to lure her to bed but this is not the case with Jessica. He even get scared to make the first move to kiss her, because he wanted to be careful not to send a wrong signal and ruin the entire vibe. Truly, relationship between colleagues has lots of disadvantages and advantages. The very jovial Maxwell that everyone knows has become too cautious playing around other female colleagues. Some couldn't hide and made him aware of it. Every step he took was intentional accompanied by critical self assessment questions like: If Jessica hears or sees this, would she be happy?"

Jessica's flight was booked for 5pm on Friday which was when her training ended. She requested that Maxwell picked her up at the Airport.

Maxwell worked fast that day, just to meet up, he never knew he had such speed and accuracy. Truly home is where the heart lies, as he felt too comfortable with that which concerns Jessica his heartbeat.

At 4pm, he was done with work and immediately zoomed off to the airport. Finally at 6pm, Jessica landed, he stood at the arrival point waiting patiently to see Jessica. Everyone he saw looked like her that he thought he was getting partially blind with love. Finally he saw her and rushed to give her a hug, this feeling reminded him of his twin brother, who traveled overseas for ten years. When he finally saw him, the hug and laughter was endless. This was an exact replication with Jessica.

He assisted with her luggage to the car and drove her to her house. While he was driving, her hands was well stationed on his thighs at interval and he could feel the vibration of his manhood. He prayed that the young man would not disgrace him yet he turned deaf ears. He then dipped his hand in his pocket when they arrived at her place so that he could relax a bit.

He hurriedly rushed to the car to pick her luggage as she assisted with opening the door. After settling in, she offered him cashew nuts and a bottle of whiskey while she insisted to defroze a can of stew so they could eat even when he refused. Shortly after, she had made rice and stew with diced fried plantains. The aroma is not what he would love to refuse even when he had initially declined the offer.

She served the food and as they were eating, Maxwell's neighbor called him to know if he was home as he informed him that there was a cult clash in his neighborhood with two death recorded. He ended the call after thanking his neighbor and told Jessica everything.

She exclaimed in fear and begged Maxwell not to leave."After all today is Friday, no work tomorrow so please you can sleep over"she said.

After meal, she asked him to come have a shower and gave him a pyjamas to wear. When he came out, they sat at her wine bar to have a chat and took a glass of whiskey together. During their conversation, his eyes were constantly peeping at her cleavages, she noticed and asked if he wanted to be fed. He had no response to the question as 'it will require a comprehensive past question and answer compilation to get the answer' he thought.

Within a twinkling of an eye, she press a switch in the bar to a red light as it gave him an instant reflection of the recent silhouette challenge. 'Could this be me partaking in the challenge I had sworn never to' he thought.

She stretched her hand to his neck and slowly stepped down from her seat, kissing him passionately. He couldn't wait to grab her bre@st and caressing her passionately, while his other hand was in her thick ass.

They smooched for over 20minutes before he requested a penetration but she switched off the light and kissed his n****e saying goodnight.

Maxwell was frustrated as he was left helpless as she moved straight to her reading table to conclude some of her pending jobs.

Jessica concentrated on her work like nothing happened and ignored him totally.

Maxwell couldn't express his anger about what just happened he just looked at her with anger burning inside of him.

He felt like he was used and dumped by Jessica because of the way she led him on and left him halfway.
