NARRATOR POV
••RICHARD MANSION••
The next morning, Nina kept tossing around on the bed, after a while, she opened her eyes weakly to find the room strange, everywhere was looking blurred and then she sniffed her nose.
“What’s that delicious smell?”. She asked and sat upright on the bed groaning in pain.” Gosh, my headaches”. She stared around as the memory of last night flashed through her head.”Ouch!” She looked down at her body to find her clothes untouched and she let out a sigh. “This room looks cozy, how did I get here and what is that delicious smell?”. She stood up from the bed to the doorstep, opened the door, and stepped out wandering around the building.” Where is this place?”. She kept walking and suddenly pumped into someone, and the person grabbed her from falling and pulled her into his arms.
Nina’s face rested on his bare chest, she felt the familiar fragrance of the person holding her and her heart started thumping and ready to explode.
“Where are you off to?”. Richard asked and she immediately recognized his voice.
” Is he?”. She said to herself and quickly pulled away from him. She met his gaze and gasped. “You!”. She said pointing at him and looking surprised.
” Yes, me”. He replied with his arms crossed. Nina could stand staring at his bare chest, she turned around quickly.
“How did I get here?”. She asked confusedly.
” This is my house and I brought you here last night because you were heavily drunk “. he explained.
” Am so sorry for the inconvenience”.
“You don’t have to, anyway, I made breakfast, you can go to the dining”. He said and walked away.
” Oh geez!”. She sighed and turned around to see he was gone.”Thank goodness, he is so tempting, why would he leave his chest exposed like that, I almost got a heart attack”. She sighed and decided to find her way to the dining room. “Wow, amazing”. She smile at the breakfast lavished on the table.” Oh my he is so romantic, I love the smell”. She moves around the dining table inhaling the aroma coming out from the food.
“Aren’t you eating yet?”. Richard interrupted her from the staircase and she gasped in fear.
” Um”. She sputtered bowing her head.
“You don’t stare at the food, you eat”. He said and left to sit down, Nina took a peep at him to see he had won a T-shirt.” You don’t want to eat?”. he asked seeing her hesitation.
“Um”. She gulped. ” Oh my gosh, this tension is killing me already, I can’t believe I am standing in front of him and I am also in his house, am I dreaming, please nobody should wake me up”. she said to herself.
“What’s wrong?”. he asked jolting him out of her thoughts.
” Er, nothing”.
“Don’t you like the meal?”.
” I do, it looks nice, did you prepare all of this food?”. She asked and noticed his hesitation.”Am sorry if I sound awkward, I didn’t mean to ask, I’m sorry”. she said nervously
“Is okay”. he smiles.” I prepared the food”.
“What? You prepare all of this?”.
” Yeah”.
“Oh my gosh, you are so sweet as I ever imagined”. She immediately realizes she shouldn’t have said that loud. Richard stared at her and giggled.” Am sorry”.
“Stop apologizing and eat”.
” Okay, sir”. She took a bite and was amazed.”Hmm! This tastes amazing”. She gave him a thumb “You should open a restaurant, this is good”. she said and Richard smiled.
“Thanks”.
” I will be your number one customer, if I could wake up every day to have this delicious meal, I would be the happiest being on earth”. She said and Richard chuckled
“Seriously!”. He asked and she nodded.” Thanks, enjoy your meal”.
They continued eating, she stopped for a while to steal gazes at him, she became drawn to the way he moved his lips slowly.
“He is so cute! I finally got the opportunity to look at his eyes, they look adorable and his lips are so hypnotizing”. She said to herself daydreaming.
” Hey!”. He called and she jolted out of her daydreaming.”What are you doing?”.
“Nothing”. She replied and lowered her face to her food and started eating.

••ALEXANDER COMPANY ••
Aurora was having a hangover and she rested her head on the desk.
” Gosh! Why did I drink so much”. She said and then Nina rushed to her making her gasp in fear.” Nina!”.
“What!”. She giggled and sat down.” I am so happy”.
“Why? What happened?”.
” If getting drunk every day will make me sleep in my prince charming bed and even eat his delicious food, I will surely do so “.She said happily.
” Wait! Richard was the one that took you home?”.
“Yes!”.
” Really? Did you meet any girl in his house?”.
“No”.
” Why? I thought you said you saw him holding hands with another girl claiming to be his girlfriend”.
“Yeah, but I didn’t see anyone”. she sighed.” So, what about you? Why are you still having a hangover? Didn’t Alex help you with the massage last night?”. She teased.
“Actually, I messed up”. Aurora said.
” How do you mean?”.
“I didn’t wait for him to wake up before I sneaked out of his house “.
” Why?”.
“I know I was drunk last night, but I remember the words I said to him”.
” What word?”. Nina asked confusedly. Aurora pushed her and whispered in her ear and she gasped. “What? You said that?”.
” Yes, is so embarrassing, I don’t even know how to face him”. She said and Nina laughed.”Not funny”.She frowned.
“Am sorry, so what are you going to do?”.
” I don’t know, I don’t know why I ask him that question”. She grunts.
“You don’t need to feel embarrassed, Alex is your boyfriend, so is not bad to ask “. She said. ” So, when you ask, what was his response?”. she raised her eye brown to her.
“I don’t remember” ” She sighed.
” If you had waited for him to wake up this morning, maybe you two would have gotten down with it”. She grins at her. just then Alex walked in and they stood up and greeted him. He stared at Aurora for a while and left for his office.” see you at lunch”. Nina said and rushed out quickly.
“Gosh! How do I face him”. She sighed and then a text message came to her phone it was a message from Alex, asking her to come to his office. ” you got this”. She stood up and left for his office standing in front of him nervously.
“Why did you leave without informing me?”. He asked and Aurora gulped nervously.
” Am sorry, I didn’t want to wake you up, and besides I was getting late for work”.
“Sit down”. he ordered and she sat down
Alex stood up and brought out a plastic coffee cup from a packing box. ” Here, drink this”. he gave it to her as he sat down beside her.
“Thank you”. She sips a lot from it.
” Don’t ever leave without telling me, I was worried and your cell phone wasn’t connecting “.
” Am sorry”. she said and he caressed her face.
“is okay, am happy that you are okay”. They smile at each other.” Are you still having a hangover?”.
“Little, my headache a little”.
” Turn around let me give you a head massage”. he said and Aurora turned her back to him and he started the head massage. “May I ask why you two had to get drunk last night?”.
” Um, nothing, we were just having a hang out”.
“Really? But it was dangerous for you two, what if you two were picked by the wrong person”.
” We didn’t intend to get drunk, it just happened”.
“Please, let it not happen again, if you girls want to have fun, you two can do it at home”.
” Sure, we will”She smiled and the atmosphere became quiet. “Hmm, Alex”.She turned to him and both were staring into each other eyes. ” Thank you”.
“For what?”. he asked confusedly.
” For worrying about me”. She said.
Alex smiled at her and pecked her cheek. “You are welcome”. They smile at each other and they are interrupted by the ringing of the phone. he noticed it was a call from his mother, he sighed and picked it up.” Hello Mom?”.
“Alex, I need you home today?”. She said from the other end of the phone.
” Why Mom?”.
“I can’t tell you on the phone, come home after work”. she ended the call and Alex sighed tiredly.
” Is everything okay?”.
“yeah, don’t worry”.
