CHAPTER FOUR
When I walked back to the office from my lunch I met the assistant and she said "how was the presentation sir" it was good I replied as I walked to my office smiling I went into a huge work engagement so I was so concentrated that I didn't remember nothing more that just making sure I finished the load of work on my desk I tried all I could to make sure I got this done before work is over because I didn't want to go home with any of this work I need to get some rest when I get home and probably try to make sure I get Stephanie's attention.
It was time to go home and I discovered that I almost finished the job so I decided to go with the remaining work home just in case there's any way I can be chanced to concentrate and finish the work at home I took my bag and put in the left over files and walked to the car pack as I was walking to meet with my driver i turned back and discovered that Stephanie was behind me still acting like she don't know me I quickly walked to the car sat inside and asked the driver not to move I want to make sure I followed her to the estate, the driver was curious and asked me sir why did you suggest i follow the secretary behind i looked at him and asked him to do what i say and only speak when i asked him to he nodded and kept quiet "why didnt you tell me the secretary stays in the same estate with me when you told me about her "i thought it wasn't necessary sir" am sorry its fine i replied him as he kept quiet obeying My instructions.
when we drove in through the estate gate; her car slowed down and she tipped the security at the gate some money and her car drove in quickly then I was convinced she wasn't that bad as she portrays I drove alongside with her until the estate I got to my block and walked into my house hoping and believing she will be in her kitchen soon when I got in I realized I needed a pet at home because the house we so quiet and empty so I thought of getting a cat by weekend.
I went on to arrange the house and clean all round the house when I heard a knock I opened the door it was Stephanie looking at me unhappy when I asked what the problem was she didn't say a word for over 1 minute I was confused and calm, she looked around my living room as if she was looking for something, "why are you stocking me?..." she said to me I became speechless at the moment she went on to say "stop stocking me else I'll involve the police after saying that she tuned and left my block I was little excited and confused I truly can't believe she came to my door step, I was smiling because a threat means nothing to me, I don't care who she calls am just excited seeing her in front of my door step.
I went in and sat in the living room smiling hoping that one day she will come to my door step smiling, I felt I got all it takes to make her happy I walked to the kitchen and made dinner I needed to eat because I was starving after making dinner I went back to the living room to eat, all the time I spent in the kitchen I didn't sight her anywhere in the kitchen as I was eating my phone rang it was my mom, I haven't seen my mom for over 8 years now "hello my baby boy how is everything going on there?..." everything is good mom am sorry I haven't checked on you lately work has been so hectic she was good with me and asked me to take good care of myself, call me whenever you miss me I smiled and kissed her from the phone and she hang up I felt good and start missing my mom I can't go see her now because I just got to Las Vegas am not even sure I could take a leave any time soon I think I needed some time with my mom I'll make sure I go visiting any time I have my leave from work.
After eating I got some rest enjoying music on my Tv after which I took my laptop and tried to finish up some unfinished work I brought home the music was so good that I had to pause work and decided to dance and have some good fun, I tried so many kinds of dance I could remember and i felt so good drinking and having such a great fun at this moment.
it wasn't long I heard a knock at the door I went and opened the door, a good looking young man was standing there looking at me, "who are you and how can i help you" he brought out his hand and shook me "I am Kelvin the new estate manager i was still curious" new manager?... he nodded and said I am here to introduce myself and he smiled and left, I stood at the door and watch him walk away immediately a car that looks familiar pulled over in front of my block i was seriously waiting to know who is inside the car; oh it was Dolores the assistant secretary " hey what are you doing here?..." she smiled and asked me to let her in which I did and kept trying to know what she is doing in my apartment, I am here to submit a file to the secretary she needed to work on it.
You have a nice place here it feels good to be here I asked her to sit down while I went to the fridge and get her a glass of water, how is your evening going she said fine looking at me as if she has something to tell me, Dolores are you ok?... yes she said as she tries to concentrate on our conversation smiling shipishly after a while she stood up and said I'll take my leave now I stood up and walked her to the door she got into her car and said see you at work tomorrow sir; she zoomed off, I came in back to my living room and started wondering why she was giving me that unsaturated look, can, I guess she's crushing on me?... or maybe Stephanie had a discussion with her about me and she was finding it difficult to tell me about it, I became little worried and thought I should give her a call maybe she will be bold enough to talk about it on phone; on a second thought what if all this drama was for a different reason I don't even know about, I gave up and went on with finishing the work.
After a while I decided to take a stroll around the estate having in mind I might see Stephanie I went across few blocks even through her's but no sign of her I think she is busy with the work that was delivered by Dolores few minutes ago, I suddenly met an old man who should be in his 60s "Hey you must be new here" yes sir well am Dalton and you?... "am Manuel" I am glad to meeting you Dalton you are a good looking man, when I saw you coming I smiled because you made me remember when i was young, and vibrant with a good muscle and energy he said that smiling; i hope to see you again, he walked pass me smiling i looked at him and said yes sure maybe someday i turn and walked back home.
