As LilianWhen I said yes, I knew it was going to be complicated. I had assumed it, so he would stop asking me over and over again.i have always known to fall in love with him would give me heartache. I am a lady with a focus, a keen and determined mind. Love has no place, falling in love shouldn't be in my dictionary.
I met him at a friend's house; it was my friend's birthday party. I had flown in from New Jersey right after work. I looked tired, but I figured I would take a rest after the party, and I wouldn't drink since I was leaving very early in the morning.
He opened the door after I rang the doorbell, and there I knew, this dude will get me into trouble by falling in love with him. Of course, at that time I felt it was lust at first sight. I wanted him right away; I could feel my legs shaking. I lost all focus, and I kept gazing at him. He smiled at me.
"Are you coming in?"
The question brought me back to reality, "yes, thank you". I replied with a confused smile.
I bet he saw how confused I was; then he decided to lead the way. He helped out with my bags filled with birthday gifts and bottles of wine. Still, in my small word of thoughts, I heard someone called out my name.
It was my best friend (best Friend) of 20years. Ayo Daniels, he still looked the same but with a grown moustache. I smiled at him, then hugged him.
"I have missed you. I wasn't expecting you to show up" he said
"It was last minute plan. I didn't want to ditch your birthday this year" I gave him a big smile. I felt someone behind me; I could feel the hair on my skin. Someone was watching. I held my best Friend tight; I didn't want to let go.
"Is someone behind me ?" I asked him
"Oh, it's Philip " he released his hug " have you guys met?"
"Yes, I met her at the door " his smile was captivating, I could feel my legs still shaking. His voice intrigues me; I wanted him to keep talking. I wanted to feel my hands on his face. How can such existing? I kept asking myself.
"He is my friend from work, Philip meet my best friend, Anna, " Ayo said
"Hello, Anna. I have heard so much about you "Ayo, excused himself to meet another guest."Really?" I choked
"Yes, he talks about you. Every day at work."
" I see " I got more confused and started my series of questions what could Ayo have said about me, did he oust me?
Thanks for reading the first chapter.
