ALWAYS AND FOREVER

“Are sure you don’t want me to at least come with you just for today?”

I asked as we sat in the car on our way to the school.

“You don’t have to, I can find my way around myself, and also this is not the first time I am switching majors,”

“What? What were you studying initially?”

“Business but I gave that up for psychology, now I wanna do what my heart really wants me to do and that’s interior designing, don’t worry I won’t go missing,”

She said strapping on her seatbelt.

“Wow, what a lady, I guess you would have already been graduating, I hope you don’t change your mind again,”

“I won’t don’t worry, this is what I want to do for real,”

“Okay, I hope you have everything you need?”

“Yes, I do,”

“Okay if you say so, let’s go then,”

I replied as I zoomed off in the direction of the school.

“I will see you later in the day, you promised to rest after you get home, so better keep that promise,”

I said as we made a stop inside the New york school of interior design, we got in late at night yesterday and I had tried to stop her from going today but she said she wanted to and that she can rest when she gets back, she barely slept the night before, and God save me I couldn’t have enough of her so she didn’t sleep much last night either, but she said she was okay, and I didn’t want to look controlling but I told her to make sure to rest when she gets back home and she agreed.

“Hmm, can I get some extra cash?”

She asked stretching out her hands, I plan on getting her own credit card today.

“Sure,”

I said handing her some extra dollars, she added them to her purse looking at me.

“What? Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Aren’t you gonna ask me what I need the extra money for since you have already given me some before?”

“No, it will be rude to ask,”

“For real? Then I am just gonna be asking you money for no reason,”

She said.

“Don’t worry I am getting you a credit card today then you can do whatever you want with the money, and also your dad got you covered,”

I revealed.

“What do you mean?”

“The estate is worth more than you can spend, and since we are not going to live there I plan on making lots of money from it for the both of us, so you can be as extravagant as you want my lady,”

I explained, she didn’t look the least surprised.

“You knew?”

“Kind of, but I have to go now,”

She said as she opened the door to leave, I held onto her dress.

“What?”

“Are you just going to leave? Like that?”

“Hmm, am I supposed to do something?”

“Yes,”

“Like what?”

“Something like this,”

I said pulling her in for a kiss, I am in deep shit, I thought as my mouth traced hers in a warm soft kiss, I shouldn’t be doing this but here am I being the one to initiate it.

“Wow,”

She said licking her lips when we pulled apart.

“See you later, have fun and call me if anything goes wrong.

“Alright bye,”

She said getting out of the car and walking off into the wall of the school, she didn’t look like a newcomer in New York, not at all she mixed perfectly with it, and she even knew where the school was located, clearly not her first time in New York but even I lost my way a few times when I newly came to leave here so I hoped she can adjust better, I drove out of the school towards my office, I haven’t been here for two whole weeks and I know I had a lot to cover but hey, I am use to it, this is where I can shine better. And just as I thought, there was a bunch of papers to sign and a hell of other things to do to keep me busy throughout the day.

“Man, it so good to have you back in New York, I almost thought you are not coming back,”

Dean said in greeting as he entered my office, I stood up to greet him with a handshake and a shoulder bop

“Why will you think that?”

I asked sitting back down as he took his seat too.

“Well, for one you didn’t call me, and also you didn’t even bother to tell me you were going on a honeymoon, you just disappeared, I almost thought your mother had been joking when she told me you headed to the Bahamas for your honeymoon,”

“I did call you but you didn’t pick up, not that, your phone was practically off, and when we got to the Bahamas we were much too busy that I hadn’t had time to call again and I was just away for one week,”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

“Wow, busy, I see, busy doing what?”

“Come on man, of all the things I said, is that what you picked up?”

I asked eyeing him.

“Yes, that seems like the most important part right now, so what were you guys busy doing? I thought you said your marriage is just for show, so how come you already got busy, did she seduce you? I knew it that you can not resist a beautiful woman not to talk of a beautiful woman who is your wife, so how was it?”

He finally paused.

“So, you think I am gonna answer all those questions of yours? Think again, and also there are a lot of fun things to do in the Bahamas but your sick head only think about unholy things,”

“And did you or did you not do those unholy things I am thinking about?”

He asked with a knowing smile, I resisted the urge to punch him at least once.

“That’s none of your business,”

“Well, I guess that means you did, so how was it?”

“Not gonna share information of my private life with you, so better give up,”

“Okay, but I can tell you mine though, it’s been bothering me all week,”

He said suddenly growing serious.

“What is it?”

“I slept with her,”

“Who?”

“You know who,”

I didn’t know who he was talking about, the dude had a lot of ladies going in and out of his life and he have slept with all before so I wasn’t sure why that will bother him, but then again there is one lady though,

“Holy fuck! Grace??”

I asked in shock.

“Yeah, her,”

He responded.
