Bosco's POV

The sight of Dr. Sommy kissing a guy in the office ruined the happy mood I woke up with.It was definitely her ex-boyfriend. I was so sure of it.
For some unknown reason, I felt disappointed that she would go back to kissing the same guy who cheated on her.
I called Alex up and he told me he was in his home with Gina and the baby.
I didn't want to go without gifts so I stopped by at the Mall to get diapers and some beverages for Gina. 

"Are you angry because she kissed a guy or  the fact it's her ex" Alex asked, "Dude it's her life, she can do whatever she wants" He added and I hissed.
"Why would she go back to him? I mean this guy hurt her. You should have seen her the day she caught him with.." I trailed off tightening my fist.
"Why you con dey carry the vex for head nah?"
"I'm so angry, disappointed and" 
"And jealous" Gina walked in with a blue towel in her hands . "You don't even know what's happening"
"I do... I was listening to the two of you all this while"
"Gina I'm not jealous"
"You're angry she's kissing another. If a guy is angry over such, it only means one thing; somewhere deep down, you like her

. "
"I have a girlfriend that i love"
She then concluded that I needed to sort out my feelings. It a still sounded stupid to me. "Dr. Sommy is the most craziest and annoying person I've ever met. Yet she makes me laugh and..." I smiled at the thought of it. 
"There's something about her that I like but I don't like her in that way."
 "Alex told me you almost went nuts when she travelled"
"What happened to keeping secrets?" I glared at Alex who immediately looked away.
"I didn't go crazy, I was just worried about not getting the treatment I needed"
"Don't lie to yourself Bosco. I'll tell you this as a woman, and as a public motivational  speaker, the first step to overcome denial is to accept it"
"I love Isabel"
"I know but there's this part of you that's beginning to like Dr sommy probably because she has something Isabel doesn't." Gina explained and it made sense. 
"I know Chisom so we'll, she's likable, and very playful"
"And a good listener too. She's as transparent as a glass. I know when she's been mischievous unlike Isabel who is rigid and secretive"
"You like her, just admit it and then you can find a way to sort out your feelings for her."


Sommy's POV

I blamed Filda for not being at her duty post when Bosco walked into Joshua and I kissing.
"You should have seen the way he looked at me" "Why did you even kiss that asshole?"
"It seemed like a nice idea at that time but then...."
"Calm down, have you called him?" "Are you kidding me? I can't" I asked.


Shortly after, a lady walked into my office. She looked like an Amazon. She came in the guise of being a client. I realized she wasn't the moment she started talking. 
"Does the name Isabel sound familiar to you?" She asked and I gave it a thought. Isabel could be anyone.
"I'm sorry I don't know"
"Bosco's girlfriend." She added and tapped my legs impatiently where I sat. 
"I came as a senior sister looking out for her little sister"
The scene looked very familiar, it wasnt the first time being threatened by jealous girlfriends and wives. I knew where this was going to.
"What do you want?"
"I want you to leave Bosco alone" she confessed and I almost rolled my eyes. Just like I guessed.
"I know you're probably after his money but I want you to know he's taken. Get him off this therapy thing. Tell him he can't be cured"
I didn't say anything I just quietly watched her speak. "I'm sorry  but i can't do that"
"Do you want to die? I said let my brother-in-law go and you're saying shit"
"He's not even married to your sister yet" "He's taken"
"I'm sorry but I don't see any ring on his fingers" i answered with my hands clasped together. I had a smirk on my face.
"You are one of those husband snatchers right? One of those asewo that goes around trying to reap where they didn't sow"
"And I guess you're one of those African magic women who fight over people's lover like  pepper sellers would"
"Did you just call me a pepper seller?" She asked and i scoffed. 
"Okay what's your name, since your sister is Isabel, I'm guessing yours should be Natalie or some fancy name like that" I stood up from my seat walking towards her. 
"I've never met your sister before but from meeting you I can tell you're all nothing but opportunistic group looking for whose money to hang on to. Let me guess, your parents also feeds off Bosco"
"That's... That's lie" she stammered. 
"But he doesn't know because he thinks Isabel truly loves him. Poor Bosco"
"You're crazy"
"One thing you don't know is, that's like a compliment for me. I've always been crazy but you, you're still single. You've probably been single for a long time now probably going after other people's husbands that's why you're so insecure about your sister's relationship because you do the same to others" I examined her. 
The shock on her face was priceless! I just couldn't help but laugh. "Please get out of my office I have better things to do than to watch your ugly face"
"You'll live to rue this day" she threatened and I called security. "Security, I have a mad woman In my office I'll need you guys heltome take her out" I informed. She hissed loodly then walked out slamming the door.  


While i arranged my desk before leaving, I heard the door open. "I know, I know, i already sent the mail to him" I said. I thought it was Filda trying to remind me to send a mail to a client.
I raised my head to see Bosco. He shut the door then walked towards me. He had my book in his hands.
I wondered when and where he got the book. "You came back" I said with a faint smile and he gave a gentle nod.
"About what happened"
"It's your life, I have no right to meddle In it"
"I'm sorry you had to see that. Why did leave that way?" "I wanted to give you two that privacy. You two seemed really busy"
"We were just kissing... nothing happened" i   answered. 

Bosco's POV
I felt kind of relieved to know nothing happened. I started seeing the physical implication and manifestation  of what I discussed with Alex and Gina.
"I read your book" I explained to her, "And?"
"Half of it is fictional"
"It's not...it has been tested by me, the recommendation and solutions I gave may sound far-fetched but in reality, desperate times calls for extreme measures"
 "It wasn't a bad read anyway.

Read " Palm lines " by the same author ( Essien Eno )

. I got an inspiration on how I can win a case from it" I told  her and she chuckled moving close to me. "I feel like you should get my autograph right now" she replied and I laughed.
 "Did you buy it from Filda?"
"She gave me to read for free, I'm here to return it"
"You didn't even pay for the ink? Free things have no value."
"I would love to buy it"
"It's #5,500" she answered and I removed some money from my pocket, I only had one thousand notes on me so i counted six thousand naira then handed it over to to her. She collected it moving over to her bag. 
"I think I have five hundred naira here" 
"You can keep the change" I said to her but she walked up to me putting something in my back pocket. 
"You can keep the change too" she said to me then she sniffed me. "Oh my God why do you smell like baby barf?" She asked and I laughed. 
"I went to see Gina... You must know her. She works at Evidence hospital"
"I do... She gave birth already?" She asked still moving close to me. She stood on her toe, her nose now rested on my neck as she moved up and down sniffing it.
 "I love baby smell, it's all over you, i can eat you raw right now" she whispered. 
In microseconds, i felt something tingle down there. There was a sensation in my manhood like a brush of a hand on one's hair.
I moved away and she stood still with her brow raised at me. "I wasn't going to bite you.  "Did you think I suddenly turned into a vampire?" she asked and I just stood there lo st for words to say.
"I..." I stalled, "What?" She asked, "Nothing" "Are you sure?"
"Nothing"
There was no way to explain this, how in the world was I going to tell her I felt something tingle in my manhood when her nose brushed against my neck. How can anyone feel comfortable to say that to someone who isn't his girlfriend?
Part of me wished I could tell her so she could try it again but I couldn't bring myself to do it.
