Chereads / Chasing a better tomorrow / Chapter 20 - Another one

Chapter 20 - Another one

The day started early for Zidite, he woke up for his run and when he came back he started to make breakfast. He let Nefertiri sleep till he was done. He went to wake her up with breakfast he just wanted to give her a small surprise to spoil her a little bit. But when he got inside the room she didn't look good. Her eyebrows were wrinkled in pain and she was scrunching her face. Maybe he was too long away or even to far away or both. He put the breakfast on the flor to take a better look at her. He touched her lips with his in a delicate manner.

"Zidite… no more… running in the mornings."

He looked at her with a sad expression feeling pain in his heart. Zidite didn't understand why she felt in pain when he didn't. The both of them should be feeling the backlash.

"You have to come with me then."

"I hate to run."

"But little fox all of us need to exercise."

"Then I'm going to use the bike you can run on your own."

"It works for me."

"Argh! Say why did you want to wake me up again when it's still dark outside saying that it's the middle of the night?"

"So you can eat your breakfast in bed and then prepare to work."

Nefertiri put a pillow exasperated on her face and screamed out loud. But it was still very nice to get the breakfast in bed so she put the pillow away and sit up to get the goods. Zidite put it on her lap kissed her forehead when she started eating and went to take a shower. When she was done eating he got out of the bathroom already wearing his suit.

"We have to go to work together?" She still asked hoping that it's just a bad nightmare.

"Yes and no this is not just a dream."

"But I leave everything to the workers and I just do what they really need me for."

"That's called laziness."

"Zidite you don't really mind my laziness right?" She made a cute pouting face so he didn't get the chance to say otherwise.

"Of course I don't mind as long as you stay with me you can be lazy however much you want."

She giggled delighted, she got out of bed and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Then that's great. I still don't need to waste your money."

"But it's ours not just mine."

"Whatever. I didn't earn it."

Zidite knew that she was independent and really wanted for her to lean on him more. He wanted her to put all of her weight on it so he can hold up everything that comes at her.

"But you can still spend some of it right?"

"I'm not sure about it. No one ever game me much so I was used since young to earn my own money to survive after my grandma got sick. Sometimes the Lord was really nice to me so he gave me money for my grandmas medicine and provided us with food."

"You still took it from him"

"Yes because that was my mother's money that she left for me when I grow up."

"Are you sure about that?"

"Yes."

They didn't say much anymore still engrossed in their thoughts. Nefertiri went to take a shower and make herself look presentable. After the shower she dried her hair and made a nice braid put her lingerie on wrapped herself in her towel and went outside right to their bedroom. How could she take her undergarments but not her clothes.

Zidite was already taking out her outfit for today. He was wearing a three piece black suit with a violet tie that represented her eyes color. So he took out a nice dress that looked a little bit like his eyes color. The length of the dress is going to be perfect and a black jacket is going to be all she needs on top to look more elegant. When she put the dress on the length was a bit below her knees so it was god for the office not like all those women with short skirts ah.

"You look really good." Zidite was watching his wife leaning on the door frame with eyes expressing how dear she was to him. "Beautiful."

She went to him to give him a kiss. She couldn't stop herself from wanting him close to her. The heated moment was interrupted by a phone.

"I really need to take this." Zidite apologized to her. He started to talk with his secretary still hugging his wife and breathing in her scent. The meeting was moved to nine am. "Dear wife we need to hurry. It's already eight and the meeting is an hour earlier."

"Ok." She put on shoes in a old British style to feel comfortable trough the day.

When they were already there they still had fifteen minutes all the workers that were rushing to one place to another stopped in their tracks seeing their boss with a woman. The ones that already saw her weren't that surprised like the first time. The whispers started between the coworkers asking who's the beautiful woman beside their cold boss. Mr. Lux looked different holding her close to him, his expression showed some warmth but it was still cold for others to see. His secretary was waiting beside the elevator. They went to the top floor hearing the details of the conference to refresh the memory. When they got in the share holders and his employees were surprised. Why was a woman beside his boss. The information about the happenings here shouldn't leave anyone's mouth afterwards. Could they trust her?

She sat beside Zidite working on her laptop with earphones hearing some music to make the voices quieter. Nefertiri was delighted about her upcoming earnings after she released the new virus that was supposed to attack one of the best programs in stores. She smirked to herself not thinking about all the men sitting in the same room. They got chills on their shoulders when they saw this devoted of warmth and humanity smile. Her eyes were twinkling with mischief. Zidite noticed that she was doing something capricious and he liked that side of hers so he kissed her forehead. The person that was talking was in such a shock state that he stopped talking.

"Is there a problem?"

"No sir. I'm sorry."

He started to talk again but their concentration wasn't the best. They looked at Nefertiri who was playing on her computed with some codes and from time to time laughed without noise. After the meeting Zidite took her for lunch.

The restaurant wasn't one of the best but she insisted that she didn't want anything expensive because she wants to eat food and not appetizers as food.

They got their food and started eating in a nice silence looking at each other. Nefertiri went to the bathroom feeling really warm so she wanted to cool of a little bit.

In the mean time Zidite was giving orders to his secretary about the missed conference. Some woman sat on Nefertiris place but he didn't even look at her still talking through the phone. She tried to touch his hand but he didn't give her a chance. How could so many flowers thrown herself at him. He was getting tired. When he was done talking through the phone the woman started to use her breast to make him notice her. His eyes showed disgust but she didn't notice it thinking he was happy with her. She tried talking to him some sweet words and she wanted to touch him again but he didn't let her get close to him.

Nefertiri seeing the scene wasn't happy but she saw that he was really trying to avoid the woman. She though if she should be nice or act like she wanted. After she made a decision she went to Zidite sat on his lap and kissed his cheek.

"Hubby who's this woman?"

"I have no idea some hooker looking for a client I guess."

"So you're saying that Hase should recollect another one?"

"If it's going to make money if you want her just take her."

He tickled her lightly to make her laugh and kissed her cheek.

"So let's call him." She started the call and started to talk with a delighted voice. "Hase I have another one."

"You're joking."

"Am not! Come to the xx restaurant on the x street."

"I'm on my way sugar."

"Hey hooker you happy? There are going to be many rich clients so you're still going to get money."

The woman couldn't move she freezed terrified and Nefertiri made sure she wasn't going to run. She smiled happily like a kid that got a candy she wasn't going to say no to more money even if it's made from a dirty way.
