He returned the greetings and stood aside as I went in.

The following day I was at work as usual and did not give up hope of seeing Ohio. I still wish to have a glimpse of him.

And that was how my wishes finally came through. His driver brought him that day. I was at the window during lunch time looking out when I saw his car and sight his official driver.

This was not the same car he used when we visited my parents. He used a tundra to my parents house which I have never seen him drive to the office.

He came in his blue Highlander Jeep and sat beside the driver. My heart double skipped. I quickly checked my face and cloth if I was okay.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

He came down from the car and started walking towards the main office building.

He was officially dressed, his steps were well calculated. He can even pass for a super model with the way he walks and his dress sense.

I was admiring him from head to toe. I remembered the night at the resort Beach where he turned me down and wished he had not.

As he stepped into the main building, I quickly ran to my chair and pretend to be busy.

I did not look up as he walks pass my office that was decorated with glasses.

He replied to staffs greetings as they greeted him warmly. I guess they also miss seeing him around.

I still did not look even though all I wanted to do was to stare at him all day, I wish to know if he turned to look at my side but all I did was just to sit there with my eyes glued the computer and my hand on the mouse pretending to be busy.

He went into my boss office and remained there till closing time.

As other staffs were leaving, I was slowly packing up like a snail with the hope that Mr Ohio will be out soon.

He later came out with my boss, I quickly got up with my bag. I wanted him to notice me and he did.

When my boss saw me he looked over at his friend, I guess he wanted to see Ohio’s reaction.

Ohio acted cool and also respond to my greeting as I walked pass them.

I wish he called me back or say something to me but he didn’t, he continued speaking to my boss as they stepped out.

I felt a little better seeing him again after some days that seems like a year.

When I got to my gate, I saw Silas driving out of his own gate which was a stone throw to mine.

He waved at me from his car and I waved back.

He parked the car beside the road and jogged down to where I was standing, he greeted me cheerfully.

“I’m driving out to get some fruits, vegetables and few other things for the house. all thanks to you, I know where to get almost everything now. I have being indecisive about calling you because I don’t want to call at the wrong time. Can I call you tonight Becca…. please?

I gave him a go ahead to call.

He thanked me and went back to his car.

I went inside. after refreshing, my phone rang and it was Melinda.

“Becca, how are you doing over there? What of Mr Ohio, how is he? I know Ohio is spoiling you with too much love. You deserve it sis, what Richard cannot do another reasonable, richer, smarter, finer and in a higher class than Richard will ever attend, is doing it double. I’m happy for you sis and I know within a short time everything will fall in place…

I wish I can believe Melinda, I wish what she said was true but me and Ohio are not even friends like before.

I probably scared him away when I told him that I have a boyfriend who engaged me and now JoJo is fighting hard to get him.

I opened up to Melinda, telling her everything. I told her about JoJo who betrayed me by dating my man. She played smart thinking I won’t find out and now she has gone after Ohio too. I told her what I said to Ohio and I still can’t forgive myself or think straight because of him.

Melinda was very angry.

“Becca, why.. why did you do that to him? Wasn’t it obvious enough that Ohio loves you, he belittled his personality just to play a role of a real fiance. He did that out of love or did you think is because he doesn’t have what to do with his time? You should have called and apologise and also let him know that you were only joking of having a boyfriend, let him know you are very single. You are in love with him yet you Chase him away with your actions and attitude whenever he tries to make a move. What is wrong with you? I would have beaten you up if you were the younger one. I’m very angry right now. Ohio was insulted and humiliated here but he did not take offense. C’mon Becca, I did not expect such from you. I’m enjoying every moment with Cole, you make me see how much of a self centered person I was. You gave the Best advice yet you can’t advice yourself. As for that your friend “JoJo” who thinks she can hurt other people’s feeling Just to have her way. I’m coming for her soon. I wish you can give her the same size of blow you gave me that almost blinded one of my eyes. See what your so called friend is doing to you and you can’t treat her liquidized brain. Don’t worry I’m coming over Next weekend. Ohio will be yours. Except if he has another woman but if he is not in any relationship then you have nothing to worry about Becca. You actually caused this but we will fix it together. I got you sis… I promise you that. JoJo is a loser… I will put her where she belongs.

Me and Melinda spoke extensively. She was even more pissed with me and with JoJo. Melinda did not pet words as she told me my faults clearly.

She will be coming over to my side and from there we will pay Ohio a visit.

I’m glad that she will be helping me out because I couldn’t have done it all alone. I just hope it works out fine.

Silas called late, I was already asleep. He said he tried calling earlier but my line was busy for long.

He apologized for calling late and said goodnight to me.

That weekend I decided to join Silas to jog within the estate.

It was fun and I was running out of breath with every little jog.

Silas was encouraging and very helpful as he kept me forging ahead.

I was covered with sweat after the whole exercise within the estate which went for two hours plus.

I was at my gate talking with Silas when I saw JoJo’s car driving down.

Ever since she left to try her luck with Ohio I did not hear from her.

I hope she did not succeed. Even if Ohio want to be with a woman is definitely not JoJo. Any other woman will do but Jojo is not worthy of such a man.

She parked her car and walked up to us.

JoJo looked over at Silas who greeted her.

She was smiling while winking her eyes at Silas and cat walking round the whole place. She stretched out her hand to Silas who took it

“My name is Joan Johnson, my friends calls me JoJo. I’m a model, a brand influencer, a video vexen, a biologist and a pretty lady who goes for what she wants.

The last sentence made Silas to laugh out. I was just at one corner watching them. JoJo was flirting around Silas and he knows it but played along.

“Silas Kurt, a gym instructor and therapist. Is nice to meet you JoJo.

Silas withdraw his hand from her, he looked over at me to see if I look offended but I was giving them a go ahead smile.

Silas later left while I walked inside with JoJo.

She began her usual rant but this time around I paid attention because it was all about Ohio.

“… he is presently in the country. You should have given me his contact earlier, you knew how much I wanted him. When I called him, he picked up the call and asked who I was, I try using my seducing voice on him to praise his ego but he ended the call before I can even finish my sentence. I did not give up, I decided to send him a lovely message which he read and ignored. I called again like three times after two days yet he refused to give me the attention that I wanted. I drove down to his office with the help of the address in his card and I saw that lady with him that day he was at the cafeteria with us in your office. I saw her, I guess is his secretary or lover because she refused me going in. She said Mr Ohio was busy and I should book an appointment if I want to see him. I still did not give up, I was there again yesterday and she said Mr Ohio was not in the office. I refused to leave. that wide mouth lady can’t be dictating for him. I waited even after she asked me to go, I stayed. Ohio came and met me, he pretend not to even remember me. He asked me what I wanted to see him for. I was not going to be intimidated by him even though he appears to be intimidating. I pulled down my top properly so that he can see the size of my orange which he will be missing if he doesn’t act fast. Becca, that man is like stick, I’m not sure he has an active manhood. He did not move at all. None of my seducing tricks works on him. He later asked me to leave. I even mentioned that I’m Becca’s best friend and you gave me his card he refused to listen and ordered me to leave. Ohio can be very mean, even if he is married or dedicated to a woman he is still a man with hot blood and was supposed to be moved by my tactics but he wasn’t which was very strange. Maybe he should be a reverend father or probably he is impotent. Men doesn’t say no to me which was why I persisted but I guess I had to give it up. He may think of all those my sexy actions and decide to call me. There was a period you called, then I was busy composing a text message for Ohio, I don’t want to be distracted. I even sent him my nude along with the message. I was firing my shot to get him but it never worked. But… hahahaha… Becca, Is Silas your “honey”? Is he your man? He looks wow! I don’t mind getting to know him well. Is he living around here? That guy is so hot. See those his sexy muscles and biceps, Is so lovely. Silas will be so good in bed… he is my kind of man. But sincerely Becca, I don’t know how you get all this fine, good looking men to yourself. Everything about Silas is breath taking.. see his mustach and his constructive shape. I had almost fallen for him. Since Ohio is a real pain in the ass maybe Silas will help and quench my tasty soul. Hahahaha…
