Anadia.

"Are you sure we shouldn't check on him? He has never called in sick before, he must be really sick this time" I say, settled back against the bed, watching Caspian do push-ups in our bedroom.

He doesn't reply at first, doing five more push ups before standing up and glancing over at me. 

"Should I be worried you care about my driver this much?" He asks. 

"He isn't just a driver Kane, he's like family now" I say and he nods.

"I'm very much aware of that Ani and I'm sure you are also very much aware he's a grown man who can take care of himself" He says and I sigh. 

Am I over reacting? I don't know how I feel this days, my period ended a while ago and I shouldn't be PMSing again, right? 

Ugh, I feel like sh*t, my body feels pulverised. 

"You don't look too good" Kane says, coming to feel my head. 

"You are running a temperature" He says and I sigh. 

"I'm fine, I think I caught a cold" I say. 

"I'm very sure I told you not to go into the rain yesterday" He says. 

I smack his chest. 

"What? It almost dry season soon, screw me if I wanted to enjoy the rain while it lasts." I say, blinking my suddenly heavy eyes. 

"Screw you? Gladly" He says with a laugh and my eyes open. 

"Shit... I meant sue me, not screw me you retard" I say and his laugh escalates. 

"Are you going to call Linda? She didn't show up last night" I say, sitting up and snuggling into his warm back. 

Sue me if want to be touching my husband in anyway I can

"She's a grown woman and she can take care of herself" 

Says the man who gets angry at any mention of her having a boyfriend. 

I don't call him out on his hypocrisy, I just kiss his back and sigh. 

"You are bored aren't you?" He asks. 

"Yup" it's really hard staying indoors all day long, what with the stalker still out there and still a threat to me I really can't go back to working. 

I hate this. 

"Wanna go on a mini vacation with me? We will take the jet and everything" He says and I lift my head. 

"Are you serious?" 

"Is that a yes?" 

"Yes!" I squeal but stop when an headache lances through my head. 

"But first we have to get some drugs in you, yeah?" 

"Yeah" I whisper, settling back into the bed,he stands up and I watch him go. 

My eyes blink shut and the next thing I hear is my name being shouted by someone. 

 

I try to respond but can't. 

Why am I so tired?

Anaya 

I burst at laughing at the face he makes when he tastes the smoothie I made. 

Okay fine, maybe I want being fair blending watermelon and okra together but I will do it again if it means I get to see that funny face.

"What the hell Anaya, I said make a smoothie not poison me" He says, tossing the drink in the sink. 

I stifle a laugh and try to be serious. 

"That's what you get for watching an episode without me, that's betrayal at its peak"

He rolls his eyes, him doing that is funny as f*ck. 

"I didn't know you hadn't watched it, and besides it was too interesting to pass up" He says, we've been watching reruns of friends and although we both know what happens in all the episodes we stil wait to watch it with each other. 

It's been like that since he practically moved in. 

"Well then, get ready for those kinds of smoothie for the rest of your life" I say and he smirks. 

"I'm very sure I can convince you otherwise" He says and I feign boredom, yawning and everything. 

 "Oh? I'm also very sure I won't be interested in whatever bribe you think you can cook up" Lie, big lie, I'm very interested. 

Since we got back together we've barely done anything, nothing at all. 

He's been the perfect gentleman, what does it say of my home training because I want him not to be the perfect gentleman. 

He takes a step forward, pulling me closer by my hand and tucking his face in my neck. 

My body tingles as his breath warms me up there, I immediately sigh.. 

"Looks like someone is being convinced otherwise already" He whispers but I don't reply, it's Saturday and I don't have work. 

I can already envision us spending the day in bed. 

He kisses my neck as his hands slowly unzips my dress from behind, he makes light work of it, sliding it off my arms, it pools at my feet, he helps me step out of it and I'm standing before him in just my pant and bra. 

"Beautiful" He murmurs and I feel beautiful. 

He goes to my lips, kissing me there as he unclasps my bra, sliding it off my arm, his hands immediately covers a globe and I moan at the feel of it.. 

"Cash?"

"Uh.." 

"If you go faster and stop teasing me I will be much more convinced" I say and he smiles against my lips, bending his head to take a nub as his eyes remain on mine.

Oh God.. 

A noise penetrates my bliss and I frown. 

"Ignore it" He says as he kisses my breasts. 

"Ohkay..." I breath, ignoring the sound of his ringing phone. 

Another phone, mine, begins to ring and he swears, lifting his head. 

I grab the phone from behind him and see its Kane. 

"This had better be good" I say by the way of greeting. 

"Anaya, Quick you have to come down to the hospital, Anadia passed out and shes.

. She's bleeding" He says and images of that faithful day three years ago passes through my head. 

Cash who must have heard is already helping me back into my bra and gown. 

"On my way, send me the address" I say, praying against everything that I don't loose my sister. 

 

AN 

So, I started a business recently and I felt like I should say to anybody in here who is an entrepreneur. 

More strength to you guys. 

I never would have thought stopping myself from using up all my business money on clothes and gadgets can be so much hard work. 

It's really hard. 

Really. 

Most times I feel like saying f*ck it and just going out and buying a new phone but then I remember that I have to prove to myself that I can be responsible. 

So, yes, I'm trying to be a responsible adult and not waste all my cash on junks.. So. Those of y'all who work for yourselves and those of y'all who receive salaries and are able to do something good with it, I respect you.
