Ivory And Ebony

Chapter 31

Olivia
   "I strongly agree whatever happened to you has everything to do with Nate" Riri said pacing "Because I had him tracked down and he was right there in the hospital, and then you coming to meet me, you're almost run over" he said in deep thoughts

"And there's still no sign of him?" Beulah asked

"It's like he vanished, went AWOL" he said

"You guys know I'm okay, we'll get the guy, when the time is right or when he starts getting careless"

"Why are you always unbothered about the stuffs that happen?" Beulah asked

"Because if I begin to worry myself, I'll start getting wrinkles and honey, this body wasn't made for wrinkles" swirling my chair around

It's been weeks since I got discharged from the hospital, apparently Orion didn't let me out of his sight which I found really cute but invasive, he even stayed at my place to make sure no one came back to finish their job, it took much convincing to have him go back to his place. It's not that I don't like him around, I'm just not used to living with another male figure for that long. He's really cute

"I'll have my people search harder, for all we know he's still out there and you and Beulah are his targets" he said staring at me squarely "And you have to stop being nonchalant about some things, it's your life here..and for all we know it could have been worse Olivia. It's high time you drop that silly attitude you've had on right from when we were kids, in the gutter"

"Yes sir" I really don't want to fight, if he's looking for a fight

"Liv, you have to be more careful, I will too" Beulah said getting up

"You should, but when are you telling mum and dad"

"No one is telling them anything until we've got Nate. Is that clear?" He said very authoritatively

"Very clear sir" b and I said together which I found really cute

"Okay I'll be on my way now, I have to be at the hospital"

"Thank you guys for stopping by to check on me and have this conversation since you haven't seen me in a while and it feels good to be out" I said blushing

"What is Orion Sanders feeding you?" Beulah said chuckling

"It's love, just love.. nothing but love" grinning

"Did you guys finally sleep together, after eye raping yourselves. It's not like we didn't all notice"

"No we haven't slept together" my face changing as the words kept ringing in my head 'you're a whore and nothing but a whore!' rice words kept ringing so loud in my head

"What's wrong Liv, you good? You went pale there for a second"

"Yeah I'm good, I'll call you later okay"

"Okay bye. Bye Rice" she bid her farewell and she walked out, shutting the door on her way out

"You good?" He asked leaning on the wall

"Yeah" I nodded shakily "Just feeling light-headed that's all"

"Do you need Beulah to have you checked out?"

"I'm good riri. I'm okay"

"Alright then, I'll be on my way too. Take care"

"You too" he had a light smile on before stepping out too

Someone knocking on the door gently "Come in" not looking up from the screen

He sent his head first "And how is she doing?" Smiling
