Hushed Echoes

Initially Carolyn had to supress this sexual hunger because she was not very familiar with him, and was just meeting him for the first time, barely three hours after, she felt she had done enough to ensure an intimacy with him, she was rest assured that comes what may she was going to have her way.

After all he was a man and at such he is bound to succumb to such, Marco is bound to succumb to her advances, there was no cause for alarm according to her presumptions that her desire was going to come true just at the snap of her finger.

“Thank you very much for your concern” Marco said, moving impulsively away from her, to the next chair, Marco refused to look at her, and no sooner had he sat down comfortably on the opposite chair that she moved and sat on his laps.

“You are hurting me” Marco growled.

All of a sudden she remembered the injuries on his laps.

“Oh Iam sorry Marco, I didn’t do it deliberately, infact I have forgotten that your lap is blistered, please forgive me, I was only touched by your story and I feel the only way to keep you happy is by comforting you”.

“That is alright” replied Marco.

Carolyn felt her heart leaping, she tapped her fingers against her lips as she gathered her thoughts, ” Marco, i-i-…” She hesitated, ” I think I should do something fast to ensure your quick recovery, there are so many medicines you can use and these injuries would go away fast”

“Well I have the drugs the chemist prescribed for me, and Iam taking them conscientiously, I took two tablets this morning, this afternoon also, and I shall take another two tablets this evening” Marco retorted.

“Anyway I was thinking of something else that can easily cure the injuries, it’s something I normally use whenever I accidentally have a cut or injury, let me bring it for you to see” she went into the room and brought out something in a small jar.

“This is it” she showed it to him.

“What is this?” He asked.

“It is a pain relieving ointment, it’s very effective, by this time tomorrow your injuries would have started to heal, not only that, it would help the scars vanish completely, let me help you apply it” she proceeded to unbutton Marco’s trouser.

“Stop, stop it! What are you trying to do?”

“I only want to help you apply the ointment, especially your laps, you told me your laps is hurting you, let me apply the ointment on it” she defended herself and made a second attempt to pull down the trouser.

“Get away from here” marco pushed hay, ” I have my own hands, So what is wrong if i apply it myself?” Richard had hardly finished his statement when he heard knock at the door, he stood up to button up his trousers while Carolyn went to check who was at the door, she flung the door open and there stood Fred at the doorstep.

” Hello Darling! When did you arrive?”

Carolyn reached him and tugged at his arms, her conscience pricked her the moment she saw her husband, so much that if Fred had been very sensitive, he could have sensed it, but he was enraptured by his wife’s home-coming.

He could not bothered himself with any expression on the face of his beloved wife.

“Just some hours back” replied Carolyn with a grin.

“Are you all right? You look so pale and worn- out. Is is because of your long journey?” Fred asked, wrapping his hands around her waist.

“Something like that” Carolyn responded, looking even more demoralized than before.

“Come on sweetheart, Sorry for that, You see it not for this work i would have come around and pick you, and while in the bus, my lap would have provided a copy settee for you. My hands would have been caressing you and tiredness would have been soothingly in a comical demeanor”

” You did not even ask me about my parents and you know that was the major reason i travelled. ”

“Oh! Darling, it isn’t that i forgot, I simply wanted to do what my friend asked me to do for you immediately i see you before anything else” Fred told him.

” What could it be?” Caroy asked curiously.

“It is a secret” replied Fred.

“So, go ahead ” she said firmly.

He bent over and kissed her on the mouth, Carolyn felt the gentle touch of his lips brushing against hers, she smiled and winked at him.

He was staring at her with a hot gaze that seemed to reach into the very core of her heart, then quickly he moved closer and whispered to her.

“That is it,” he revealed.

She took a deep breath, realising the whole joke.

“So what’s next?” she asked crossing her arms.

“Your parents?”

“Parents!” they both exclaimed in comic unison.

The Fred waited to hear if she was going to say something else, licking his lips in the process.

After three seconds, he noticed that she wanted him to continue.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

“Yes Your parents, I mean, how are they? I hope you extented my greeting to them?”

“They are fine” replied Carolyn.

“Have you seen my friend? His name is marco.

” I know…” Carolyn interrupted, ” He has told me a lot about himself already, I don’t think there is anything you want to tell me that he has not told me, that makes an introduction unnecessary”

“Okay…” Fred exclaimed and turned to marco. ” Matco, how is your body?”

“I feel much better”

“I hope you have eaten?”

“Oh yes, Carolyn prepared something for me, something very nice for lunch this afternoon”.

” That is good i can’t wait to have a taste of this nice thing. I am very hungry too.”

“Before you taste it, you had better come and bath and change your cloth first, i don’t want you to spoil your cloth otherwise you won’t have anything to wear to work tomorrow” She said.

They walked hand in hand towards the bedroom, as they were entering the room Carolyn turned round and winked at marco, which Fred did not take notice of.
