The sun shone brilliantly, shooting  sharp bright glares at Reeva where she lay, awakening her. She stirred and which much difficulty opened her eyes to the bright new day . She frowned, having realized that Andy was nowhere to be found next to her.

“Andy?” She called out but no response.  She yawned and stretched her arms for a while before pulling herself up.

“Andy, baby?” She called out again but the silence greeted her.

Slowly, she dragged herself out of the bed until she was sitting on the bed with her legs on the floor. She scratched her head for a while, while scanning the bed with her eyes to look for her phone. Finally, she found it next to the pillow and took it.  She first of all reduced the bright light that was coming from the phone and then she checked the time, it was just some minutes past six. She still had time and go to work from there.

But where was Andy?

She thought and stood up. She walked towards the door and was about to open it when the door swung open and Andy came in.

She at first looked surprised

. He was suited up, his hair was well combed and in his hands were two cups of coffee out of  which he gave her one.

She collected it and held in her hand for a while.

“Why are you dressed up while it’s still so early?” Reeva asked.

“I am supposed to travel today, remember?”

Of course, she had forgotten.

“Yea, I forgot, I’m sorry. But, I thought you would go to work first , then seek permission from Fred?”

“Yea, I sent him an e-mail so he already permitted me.”

“Well, so when are you going?”

“I already booked a flight which is set to leave at...” He checked the wall on the clock. “Crap, in the next twenty minutes.” Quickly, he carefully put the cup on the table and rushed to the side of the bed to pick his suitcase.

Reeva watched as he packed everything and picked his suitcase before walking out of the door while she followed him.

“What are you going to be doing while I’m gone?”

Reeva shrugged. “I don’t know yet. My friends are supposed to be around this week, will see how I can make them come to L.A on time. So, I will be going back to my house today.”

He stared at her. “Go back to your house? Why?”

Reeva scoffed. “We haven’t moved in, besides, I still have my place you know?”

Andy sighed, turned to face her; he wanted to say something then checked the time and kept quiet.

Some minutes later, he was in a commercial cab, sitting at the passenger’s seat while she leaned against the car.

“So, greet the girl for me and have fun.”

Andy nodded, kissed her and signaled to the driver.

Reeva stood there, waving as the car drove away before she finally entered the house.

Few hours later, Reeva was in her office, she was busy with some documents on her table when the door opened and her partner came in, they were sharing the office together, her seats were directly opposite hers.

“So, how is our latest off-the-market-girl doing this morning?” KEMI asked as she walked to her seat.

“Well, I am super great except that my fiancé had to rush out of town to see his father.” Reeva replied.

KEMI smiled and sat down. “You are making it sound as if you don’t think he should have gone.”

“Well, I don’t have any problem with him except with his father.”

KEMI smiled. “You have not gotten over the whole thing with his father right?”

Reeva looked at her and nodded but the woman only smiled.

“You never told me how you later got out of that place you know. After the whole vomit of shame, how did you make it alive from there?”

Reeva sighed as her mind went back to how it happened.

After she had vomited whatever demon she had vomited. She could remember, staying right there in front of Andy’s father. It was like everyone just stopped breathing and she was glued to that spot. Even the older man couldn’t even shift his shoe. Everyone just stood there, watching them until the butler said something to the father who simply removed his shoes at the spot and walked out of the room  barefooted down to wherever. She was still glued, unable to even look up.

“Come on babe, come with me.” Andy had whispered softly to her and like a puppet, she simply followed. Few minutes later, she was sitting in Andy’s room, too ashamed to show her face, even to their friends. She was alone as Andy was speaking to his father and when he finally came in, he only told her that they would be leaving.

“What did your father say?” She asked as they walked to join the rest.

She could remember how he had hesitated before saying. “Don’t worry about it.”

“So you mean you two haven’t really discussed it?” KEMI asked after Reeva had narrated everything.

“We didn’t have to. I know he hated me right away.”

KEMI chuckled. “You can’t hide forever you know?”

She nodded. “Yeah, the thing is, I really want him to meet me but I am so scared  of him already.”

“You should be. If I were to be the one, I would be as scared as hell. So, when is the date? Have you guys picked the wedding date yet?”

Reeva shook her head. “Nope. He hasn’t even discussed it.”

The lady looked surprised. “Are you serious? Aren’t you two going to tie the knot very soon?”

“Well, I plan on working on that as soon as he gets home, my girlfriends are coming to town and we are going shopping.”

“Shopping for the wedding of course, what else?”

KEMI almost laughed out.

Read " Ichabod " by the same author ( Tobi Loba )

. “But you haven’t even picked a date yet.”

“I know. Maybe once he realizes my enthusiasm, he will finally understand what I am doing?”

KEMI observed for a while and then shook her head and shrugged. “Well...”

“Well what?” Reeva asked. She felt KEMI had something she didn’t want to say.

“You know it’s none of my business.” The lady replied.

“Do let me know what you have in mind. Maybe it will help me in making the wedding happen faster.”

KEMI hesitated. “Do you need to manipulate him?”

This question got Reeva by surprise. “What do you mean?”

“I mean, you are trying to manipulate him and I really think it’s wrong. There may be a reason why he is not talking about it. Why don’t you ask him?”

Reeva waited. “Well, You are right,” she said, standing up and packing her documents.

“Right about which part?”

KEMI walked to the door and turned around. “That it is none of your business,” then she walked out of the room, slamming the door after her.

OKAY, CAN WE FINALLY SAY THAT REEVA HASN'T LEARNT HER LESSON YET?
