Torn between two offers
484 Words
Vannette could not sleep at all,she was staring at the card,the 'greek god', had giving her,if she accepted his offer,she would not be able to accept the 'foreign' man's offer.
It was a job offer to be a supplier for his hotel,no doubt ; the man was awed by the pastries,so obviously he would want it for his hotel,but the restaurant offer came first!
Now,what to do?.... She decided to talk with Derick about it,since he was the only reasonable one apart from Maya,but this was business, Maya was only mature when it came to topic about love. She was the 'love doctor',a pro to cut this short.

Walking to Derick's house after dropping the girls to look after the bakery, for the short while,she would be at Derick's.
She knocked on the door but no answer,turning the knob,she opened the door and walked to Derick's room,as his house was a self con.
She gawked at the sight she beholded, a sinful feast to virgin eyes. Derick was just coming out from the washroom,a white towel dangling around his waist,his black curly full hair was all wet and dripping,his skin was looking fresh and welll nourished,his nude lips were so moisturized.
Oh my! ," Are you going to keep staring at me,oh will you tell me why you are here?", He said a little bit hoarsed as he just got out from the shower,and it was quite early in the morning.
"Oh,sorry. But you look like the sun threw up on you. So freaking hot!,it's so unusual!", Vannette said with no sense of shame,it was the truth and what was the point of lying.
"Hehe.", He only chuckled, then he added, "Why are you here?", Not like it was unusual for her to come over,but she always came with a reason.
"Oh that,I am torn between two offers,you are wise,so you should be able to.. you know make a decision.", Vannette said fidgeting,and making imaginery shapes with her foot,it was hard concentrating with Derick looking like this.
"So you are not wise?", Derick asked as he inched closer with a seducing chuckle, "So now,you admit you are a dumbhead,yet whenever I call you dumb,you always oppose!", He finally retreated.
" Don't even tease me,are you gonna help me out?", Vannette pursed her lips. And played with the hem of her shirt..
"Okay okay.. tell me about it.", After Vannette had told him everything,he thought about it, "The hotel. That is more constant and convenient,don't you think so?"
"I thought as much.", Vannette replied to his question,"Dumbhead,you did not think of it!, stop lying."
"Aiyo.", She held her chest with a facade heartbroken and hurt emotion," You are so mean,but is alright,say whatever floats your boat."
She hugged him tightly, thankfully,he had already put on clothes,as he changed into clothes,in his walk-in closet.
She skipped and left the house,on her way to the bakery.
