? Strange Feelings ?

Riley.
We both stepped out from the black Range Rover, yeah we’re home. Mom bought lot of beautiful stuffs for me, I just couldn’t stop thanking her on our way home.
“Wow, you guys are finally back!.” Tonia exclaimed as soon as we entered the living room, she was busy watching the tv.
“So….tell me, how was it?.” She smiled.
“Fine, just help me thank mom.” I said.
“Have told you, don’t bother thanking me, you’re also my daughter okay.” Mom replied with a smile.
“Ain’t you tired Riley?. You should have a bath, rest and come down later for dinner.” She added.
“Uhm okay mom.” I nodded.
Tonia offered to help me carry the bags but i declined politely. “Thank you.”
As she said, I headed towards I and Scott’s room. The door wasn’t locked, i got in and kept the bags on the bed. I bought out the jewelries, shoes and clothes she bought for me from the bags.
I smiled, admiring ’em. They’re really lovely, especially the jewelries. Mom….she’s so nice, the smile on my lips disappeared when i thought of something.
What if she knows one day???. What would happen if she becomes aware that am not who she thinks I am…..am not really married to her son.
I shrug off the thoughts, I don’t wanna think about it, it makes me feel bad. I kept the things and selected a mini dress for my nightwear. I made sure the door is locked before I walked to the bathroom cause I know Mr Scott so well, knocking isn’t his thing.
After letting the warm water on my skin, I got out tying a towel around my chest. I applied lotion after drying my body and put on my nightwear afterwards.
I wasn’t feeling sleepy so I walked out of the room, i decided to assist the maids in making dinner since I have nothing to do.
Mom and Tonia ain’t in the living room anymore, they must be in their rooms. By the way, where’s Scott….?. I haven’t seen him since we arrived, it’s weekend so where the hell could he be?. Hold on…why do I care?.

FAST FORWARD.
We made vegan chickpea shakshuka, actually the maids prepared it while I just watched ’em and did some little chores. I helped in setting the dinning table, putting the plates and cutleries in the rightful place.
I sat down when the maids dished out everyone’s dinner. About to dig in when sister Yuri walked into the living room, I watched her from the dinning room as a smile curved on her red lips immediately she sighted me.
“Riley dear!.” She said walking towards my direction.
“Sister Yuri, you look stressed out, where have you been?.” I asked worriedly when she got close to me.
“Oh yeah, I was at a very good friend of mine house.” She replied with a bright smile.
“That’s nice.”
“Where are the others?.” She queried.
“Well, they’ll soon be here. The maids went to call ’em.” I said with a mouthful of fresh bread.
“Okay then, I should go change and join ya.” She tells moving to the staircase.
“Okay.” I replied with my attention fixed on the meal in front of me, it’s super delicious.

She came back in her colorful pajamas, grinning from ear to ear, well she isn’t to be blamed cause the aroma of this delicacy is worth dying for!.
“Whoa..” She mumbled with her eyes closed immediately she chewed the food.
“You guys are eating without us huh.” Tonia and mom joined us.
“Sorry.” I giggled.
“So where is Scott?.” Mom asked the maids as she took her seat.
“He’s outside ma’am.”
“Well, go and inform him bout dinner.”
“Yes madam.”

Scott.
I closed my eyes, exhaling out a deep breathe as the cool evening breeze blew, I could still remember her words, i don’t know why it kept on echoing in my ears.
? I don’t give a fk bout your shitty attitude towards me but I just want you to know something, please don’t mess with me. I mean it baby, let that stick to your head, okay.?
I opened my eyes and gulped the remaining glass of whiskey. I sighed again, not knowing what’s happening to me. I feel so uncomfortable….I don’t like what am feeling.
“Sir…” I heard a faint voice behind me, i didn’t bother to turn around cause I knew it would be a maid.
“What?.” I asked coldly, the way she referred me as ‘Sir’ made me flashed back to when that…wtch used to respect and fear me but now….she boldly calls me by my name…like what the fk though…?
“Uhm…d..dinner is ready Sir.” She responded and i could tell by the maid’s voice, the moron sounded scared.
“Alright.”
I faced her and stretched forward the empty glass to her, she collected it and bowed before she left.
I felt a vibration in my pocket, I bought out my phone and stared at the caller.
Ryan….I smirked, answering the call. “Hey.”
“Whoa….bro!. Longest time dude.” He exclaimed.
“I know right, what’s up?.”
“Been good, what bout you?.” He chuckled.
“Uhm same here.” I said with a silent sigh.
“You don’t even have time for us anymore, is there any problem Scott?.” He sounded worried.
“I apologize bro, I have been busy with work and stuff. Sorry bro, how can I make it up to ya?.”
“Well, let’s hang out at the club, the three of us.” He said.
“Whenever you ain’t busy.” He added.
“Okay, i’ll let you guys know then.”
“Sure. By the way, how is your agreement with Riley doing?.” He questioned.
That wtch….why the h’ll did my heart skip immediately he asked that?.
“Smooth.” I lied.
“Oh that’s great bro, gat to go….bye dude.”
“Goodnight.” I said and disconnected the call.
I tucked my phone back into my pocket and headed inside.

Forty Minutes Later…
Riley.

I climbed up the staircase, i should go to bed, I feel sleepy. I almost tripped but a pair of strong arm caught me, I slowly turned to see it’s him.
“Are you okay?.” He asked in a low voice, I observed his look….he seems calm.
“Why the hell does he suddenly care??. Even if I fall and break a bone, am sure he’d be happy about that…but why did he save me?.” I thought.
Is he up to something???.
“Thank you.” I muttered, avoiding his gaze as i removed my hand from his grip.
I turned to walk towards the bedroom….and unexpectedly, he pulled me back again by holding my wrist.
My heart skipped when he snaked his hand around my waist. What is happening….????.
I stared at him confusedly, he began leaning close to me as my eyes widened. “Wh…what are you doing?.” I shuddered.
I expected him to pull away from me immediately I said that but…it got even more worst, his face is very close to mine.
My eyes widened in shock when i felt his lips on mine, he kssed me softly and slowly but I didn’t reciprocate cause I was super shocked.
What the h’ll?.
~
She was putting on red short gown that revealed most of her thlghs, I couldn’t concentrate on my food at the dinning room. I found myself glimpsing at her every second.
I couldn’t control myself and trust me, I don’t know what suddenly got into me. I leaned forward to her and kssed her, her lips….damp and soft.
I deepened the kss when she wrapped her hands around my neck.

He carried me in a bridal style and walked towards the direction of our room, he opened and shut the door closed with his left leg. We broke the kss immediately he dropped me gently on the be.d.
