WHEN LOVE JUST HAPPENS 2 : EPISODE 31 – 40
EPISODE 35
As Jane stood up, she gathered the duvet with her, using it to wrap around herself, so she could look for something to put on. Something Jeffery has been telling her to stop doing, but she has refused. So this time around, he quickly grabbed the duvet from her, making Jane yelp in embarrassment, as she was left with nothing to cover herself.
“Jeff…. what did you do that for?”
Jeffery slowly stood up from the bed, and walked over to where she was, and took her hand. Jane who looked like she could kill him with her stare, reluctantly gave him her hand, as he led her to the large mirror in their bedroom.
Jeffery stood behind Jane, and placed his hands on her shoulders as they stood facing the mirror together, Jane tried looking away, but Jeffery turned her face back to the mirror.
“Baby, please look at the mirror”
Jane stared at her own reflection in the mirror.
“I want you to look at your body, and see how beautiful it is, baby you have a body to die for. And it hurts me, when I see you trying to cover it up whenever I’m around, simply because you are ashamed, or don’t feel confident enough about it. Why would you be ashamed of a body as beautiful as yours?”
“I’m not ashamed of my body, I am just being….” Jane couldn’t finish her statement, for she knew Jeffery was right, she wasn’t proud of her body, she has never been once known to be comfortable in her own skin. Something Jeffery has been preaching about, since they got engaged. He was able to recently convince her, to stop rushing to have her clothes back on, immediately they just finished having sx.
“You remember that morning in the kitchen, when you walked to where I was cooking, and took off what you are putting on, and we made love in the kitchen?” Jeffery whispered into her ears, reminding her of the day, she had suggested they get married.
“Yes, I do” Up until this day, Jane still can’t explain, what it was that got into her that day.
“I considered that very hot and sexy, I love that part of you Jane, I love every inch of you, and wouldn’t want you hiding any of it from me please. You are beautifully and wonderfully made, so, you should feel confident in your body, and should walk with confidence too, because you are my woman, and I love you”
As Jeffery spoke, Jane stared at herself in the mirror, taking in every inch of her body. She stood there believing every of Jeffery’s word about her body being beautiful, and she felt every negative thought, and word, Mr. Okafor had said to her about her body not being beautiful enough, disappeared. Jeffery is her husband, and she believes every word he is saying regarding her body. She truly has a body to die for.
“Baby, you are crying, what is it? Is it because of what I said? I’m sorry I….”
Jane turned around, and hugged him. “Thank you so much Jeff”
“Ehh, what is going on?” Jeffery asked, still confused at why she was crying, and thanking him.
Jane pulled out from the hug, and kssed him, slowly and passionately. Jeffery could feel her pouring herself out to him, it was as if something had been unlocked within her, and whatever it was, Jeffery was the one who had the keys.
Jane took Jeffery’s hands, and drew him towards the bed, and when they got to it, she slowly pushed him unto it.
Jeffery obliged every of her move, with a smile on his face. Whoever this his new wife has become, he was definitely liking.
Jeffery carried his wife’s limp body into the bathroom, where they showered together, after which they dressed up, and went downstairs to see the car he had bought her.
It was the latest Lexus 570 jeep, a car she had once admired, when she and Jeffery had just started dating. He had casually asked her if she would like to own a car like that some day, and she had said yes, without knowing he had it in mind to buy it for her.
“I wanted to give it to you months ago, but I knew you won’t accept it, so I decided to wait until we are married”
“My God, thank you so much Jeff” Jane hugged her ever caring, and sensitive husband.

“Hey Amaka how is it going?”
Amaka looked up from her food, and found Katherine standing in front of her, holding a tray of food, all smiles. Since after the shooting incident at their place, where Katherine and Vivian were both shot and badly injured, none of them have been to work. It was rumored last week at the office, that they were going to be resuming this week. And indeed, here Katherine was, standing in front of Amaka.
“Hi Katherine, how have you been?” Amaka asked dryly, hoping for Katherine not to linger. Gunshot or not, Amaka still hated this girl.
“I’m okay, doing better now. You know I was shot right?”
Now that she has brought it up, there was no way Amaka would dismiss her on time.
“Oh, yeah I heard, so sorry about that, hope you are fully recovered now?”
“Yeah, getting better by the day, do you mind if I joined you?” Katherine asked.
Amaka could see, she really looked hopeful, and would want her to say yes, something she has been dreading, even though Jane has told her several times to forgive, and forget all what Katherine had done in the past, she still can’t. It’s as if whenever she sees her, the hatred is renewed.
“Amaka, if it bothers you that I sit here, I can go to another table” Katherine said with a hint of hurt evident in her voice.
“If you knew you could sit somewhere else, then why did you come here in the first place?” Amaka wasn’t going to allow her to guilt trip her. “You can sit if you want”
“Thank you” Katherine joined Amaka on the table. “Amaka, I know you still haven’t completely forgiven me for what I did to your friend Jane, and if there is anything I really regret it’s the things I did to Jane, and I would like for you to forgive me please”
“Hmm, Katherine, whatever you did lies with your conscience, now if you will excuse me, I need to get back to work” Amaka stood up and went back to her office.
“Hey married woman, how you dey?” Amaka answered Jane’s call as she got back into her office.
“I am great, in fact I am feeling terrific, I have a great news!” Jane announced with so much happiness in her voice.
“Really? Oya give me the gist”
“Jeffery bought me a car!”
“Wow, that is a fantastic news, congratulations my friend”
“Thank you dear, so I need you to get ready, I’m coming to pick you up after work because, we are going out to celebrate…”
“Oh, I’m sorry but that might not be possible”
“Really, why?”
“I’m meeting with Dele after work, I’m sorry maybe we can do this tomorrow?”
“That’s not a problem, I’m happy you have finally decided to give Dele a chance”
“I haven’t decided yet, I’m still trying to see how it goes. So please keep your fingers crossed”
“Is that the lie you have been telling yourself?”
“It’s not a lie Jane, and you know it. You of all people should understand. I don’t want to rush into anything with Dele, I really need to be sure of his intentions for me”
“Okay o madam, whatever you say. Do let me know when will be convenient for you, so we can go out”
“I sure will do”
WHEN LOVE JUST HAPPENS 2 : EPISODE 31 – 40
After Amaka ended her call with Jane, she decided to get her work for the day finished on time, so she can leave the office on time to be with Dele.
She was so engrossed with the file she was working on, that she didn’t notice someone was standing in front of her.
“Hello?”
Amaka raised her head to find a guy standing in front of her, smiling at her.
She had to look at the door to know if he came through it, because she didn’t hear it open.
“I actually came in through the door, if that’s what you were wondering” he responded as though, he could hear her thoughts.
From the confused look on her face, he could tell she was wondering, how he knew what she was thinking.
“Sorry, how may I help you?” She asked.
“I’m Pius Kayode”
“Okay Pius?” Amaka waved her fingers, asking him to keep talking, because she still doesn’t understand why he was in her office.
“I am the new manager of the social media department”
The moment those words left his lips, Amaka immediately sprang to her feet. This was her new boss. Her former boss had re-signed last week, and his replacement was to resume this week. She was expecting him to be a bit older, more like a middle aged man, like the previous one who just re-signed. Never did it cross her mind that he was going to be this young, and sexy. ‘Amaka, comport yourself, remember you have Dele’
“I’m sorry sir. Welcome. Good afternoon”
He smiled. “Good afternoon, I was here a while ago, but it seems you went out for lunch?”
“Yes sir, I actually..” as Amaka spoke, she looked up at his face, a decision she wished she hadn’t taken. For her eyes remained glued on his eyes, and then moved down to his lips, as they slowly parted when he spoke. Was he married? For her own good, she really hoped he was.
“Amaka can you hear me?” He snapped his finger in her face.
“Oh yes, I’m sorry what was it you said?”
“I said we will be working closely with each other, especially with this new social media campaign that the company is about to launch, I was informed that you, and your previous boss were working on something?”
“Yes we were” Amaka looked at her desk as she spoke to avoid being lost in those eyes, or lips of his again.
“That’s nice, I would like to see it”
“I will send it to your email sir”
“Alright, I will be expecting it” he left for his office, and as he was at the door, he turned and looked at her. “And Amaka?”
“Yes sir?”
“Please drop the sir, just call me Pius” he said with a flirty smile
“Okay sir, oh sorry Pius” she was nodding her head vigorously.
“Thank you” he smiled at her again, as he walked into his office.
What was wrong with her? How could she be drooling over a guy who was supposed to be her new boss? Blame it on Vivian who chose to employ someone as hot as Pius, to be her boss.
WHEN LOVE JUST HAPPENS 2 : EPISODE 31 – 40
An hour later, after Amaka had forwarded the details of the campaign she was working on with her former boss to Pius, she received a call through the intercom, asking her to come to his office.
“Amaka, please I need you to explain some things on this campaign to me” Pius looked up from his computer.
Amaka has never wished for a day to end as quickly as this day. She wanted to be out of the same space as Pius, as they worked together, she kept imagining his lips and hands on her body, making it difficult for her to concentrate on whatever he said to her.
As she shutdown her laptop to close for the day, she quickly grabbed her handbag and hurriedly left the office, before Pius sees her and demands she does something else for him. She needed to go far away from the office premises, as quickly as possible, before she ran mad.
When she got to the gate of her office, Dele’s car was parked outside. For the first time, she was glad to be rescued.
Dele already saw her coming, so he came down and opened the door for her.
“Hi sweetie” he hugged her, and waited for her to get into the car, closed the door and turned around and got into the car.
“How was your day?” Amaka asked him as he reared the engine to life and drove out of the office premises.
He looked at her with a wide smile on his face, and his deep dimples, and said; “it just started”
Amaka smiled and laid her head on the seat of the car, as she tried to forget how hot her new boss is, and focus on the incredibly good looking and caring guy beside her.
“Amaka are you okay?” He looked at her with concern, she has been awfully quiet, which was so unlike her.
“I’m fine, just having a slight headache”
“Oh sorry, would you like for us to stop by a pharmacy, and get you a medication for it?”
“No, it’s nothing serious”
“Or would you like me to take you home? We can do this outing some other time”
“Okay, I think that will be a good idea”
When they got to her apartment, Dele walked her to the door.
“Yes” Amaka turned to Dele.
“What? Did you say?”
“I said yes to being your girlfriend, you want us to date right? So let’s do it”
“Amaka, you shouldn’t say yes because it’s what I want, but it should also be something you want as well”
“It’s what I want Dele, so I say yes”
