Wired hearts

No strings attached.

The soft morning sunlight filtered into the large bedroom as Jenny stared blankly, her legs wrapped up in a white blanket, She looked beside her a saw Jordan who was fast asleep, his faint scent still lingering in the air, She traced her finger around his face

Then reality checks in

“Damn, I have to leave,” she whispered.

Quietly, she slipped out of the bed gently so as not to wake the man sleeping quietly beside her. She entered the bathroom, letting the hot water rush over her skin, washing away the scent of last night, the taste of him, and all the thrills. She paused for just a second and was lost in her thoughts.

No regrets “she chuckled

It was just a night, a very good night, but just a night.

She wrapped her towel around her chest. She gathered her belongings and slipped into her clothes and tiptoed out of the penthouse before Jordan woke up.

By the time she reached her apartment, her phone had been nonstop.

10 missed calls from Lizzy, she hit the dial icon.

“Girl, what’s up?” Jenny said loudly over the phone.

“Where the hell did you, i returned all you calls last night, you just disappeared” lizzy said sounding a bit pissed off

Jenny grinned, “Girl after waiting for you for several minutes, I left and I ended up having a good time” Jenny replied emphasizing the good time

A good time Lizzy gasped “don't tell me you….”

Jenny laughed

“Oh yes….I spent the night with Jordan Blake

“Holy s**t, you mean the CEO mr 60;40” lizzy asked surprisingly

Jenny smirked” Yes CEO Mr. 60;40 himself, and before you freak out it was just a good time nothing more, fun and hot and that is it. It won't affect the deal or work.

Lizzy laughed “Girl I love that energy, but you are playing with fire.”

“Maybe” she shrugged, walking towards the kitchen to prepare breakfast for herself. “ But last night it was worth the burn damn”

They both laughed and ended the call.

But as Jenny breaks eggs into a bowl, a flash of memory, his lips on her skin, how he whispers her name, flashed behind her eyes.

Just a night, right” she thought “ and she nodded in agreement.

Jenny hummed as she fried her eggs, the thought of last night had her grinning.

Her phone buzzes, already guessing who it is

Jordan blake

She rolled her eyes as she picked up her call, trying to force her voice into her usual professional calm

“Good morning Mr. Jordan,” she said softly “I will be in your office on Monday to finalize our deal and also discuss the software launch timeline

“ Jenny……seriously? You left without saying a word?” Jordan asked in a calm tone, as if he couldn't believe it.

“Mr. Jordan pls let's not complicate things, it was just a nice time between two consenting adults, nothing more” Her tone was light and distant. She flipped her hair as she replied to him, as if last night had not shaken her at all

She could feel his frustration over the phone.

Jordan stood in his gym his jaw tightened, clenching his fist at her words

Damn it was more than that jenny, he thought

But her cold and distant businesslike tone gave him no chance to argue.

“I will see you in the office on Monday Mr. Jordan,” Jenny said before ending the call

I don't understand men acting clingy “she thought

Jordan stares at his phone blankly frustrated

She thinks she can walk away easily, We will see about that, Jordan smirked

Jenny sat at the dining table, her egg untouched, she absentmindedly stirred her tea, her mind far away.

“Why is he acting clingy” she smirked, “men like him want nothing more than, no feelings, no mess just a night” She sighed as she pushed her eggs to the side

And I will be so dumb to get attached or take anyone seriously again, not after all those lessons shoved down my throat.” You got this Jenny, time to focus, no distraction”. She said loudly

A glance at the clock made her eyes widen” damn its almost eleven o clock

She rushed to her room to get ready, She put on a pair of fitted blue jeans and a white tee, grabbed her purse and keys, and headed out.

Young girls were waiting for her at her volunteer tech class in the community center where she tutors young girls on coding and software basics.

It is her favourite place to be, just eager young girls with bright eyes, hungry minds, and dreams to break into the tech world just like she once dreamed.

this ….. This is what gives me purpose, Jenny thought as she slid behind the wheel and zoomed off to the community center.
