     Lara was in her space when Kore came by fifteen minutes later, 

"Good afternoon sir."

"How are you today, Lara?"

"Fine, thank you."

"Please, do you by any chance know where Ayo is?"

"She went home sir."

"All right. Thank you." Kore said and he left. 

As soon as he got home, he went to her apartment . He knocked a few times but she didn't answer him. He checked the window to see her sitting cross-legged with the TV. So, he called out,

"AY, if you don't open this door. I swear I am going to break it." His spare key was with his keys in the office. He had left in a hurry knowing how Ayo can be. She stood up to open the door and walked back into the sitting room leaving the door open. He came in, closing the door, he went to sit on one of the sofas. He didn't say anything but kept looking at her until she couldn't take it anymore. 

"What? What is it?"

"Why did you leave like that?"

"I can leave anyhow I want to leave."

"What were you thinking? What is running through that chaotic mind of yours?"

"I don't know for you o."

He shook his head, "You don't wanna talk, right? I should leave? Okay." He stood up and made to leave.

"It's going to be so easy for you to leave na. I don't mean anything to you

. You already got what you wanted na, so, I am no longer needed. Go to her." She said, folding her arms making him stop in his tracks. Women! Will he ever understand them? He just asked her to talk, she didn't. Then he was leaving and she was accusing him. He turned back and went to sit beside her, putting his arms around her neck and she shrugged it off. 

"What's your problem?"

Silence. 

"Oh! You were thinking Esther and me. Oh sh*t! This is so hilarious." he said laughing out loud. 

More silence. 

"Okay. I'm just going to say this one time and I want you to listen. There is nothing between me and Esther. She was just helping me with my tie. I am in supposed to be in a meeting right now but I ditched. Also, I love you and I would never cheat on you. If I wanted to cheat, I don't need to string you along."

More silence. 

"You still don't have anything to say right? Okay, you know how to find me." He made to stand but she suddenly grabbed his hands. 

"I.. I.. You said you love me."

"Yes. Don't you know? You think I just go around kissing and making love to girls I don't have an iota of feelings for?"

"I...I was just surprised. I didn't know. You... I... I am sorry."

"For what?"

"For reacting that way."

"Babe, you were jealous. It's okay. I would be jealous if I saw a guy helping you with your neck piece or something."

"So, where does this leaves us?"

"Where we want it to.

Read " Saved by Love " by the same author ( Olufunlola Adeola )

. I am ready to do whatever you want. All I know is I love you and I'm f*cking dying to kiss those lips."

"Can you be serious for once?"

"Okay, what is it?"

"We need to label this. I want to label this. Earlier, I felt stupid for feeling the way I did because you don't owe me anything. We are just casual and I had no right to feel that way."

"That's the point! I want you to feel that way. I wanted you to march in and tell her, 'I'll take it from here'. I want to show you to the world as my girl but observing you, I felt, you may want to take it all slow and that's why I have not said anything all these while."

"I want to take it slow but I want you and you make me feel the way no man has made me feel. It's so strange and pleasant. I want to explore these feelings."

"I want you too and I want to be with you."

"I want to be with you too."

"Okay. It's settled then. We will take it one day at a time, at your pace, together."

"Together." She echoed and then he kissed her slowly and sensually to stamp their words.
