Chereads / A TIME TO LAUGH / Chapter 21 - The reassurance

Chapter 21 - The reassurance

Please make love to me... I want to carry our seed and our harvest of love." She blurted out looking at him without shame in her eyes. He spread out his hands and she ran into them as they kissed passionately. She held unto him and allowed herself to be taken into realms of passion. He knew that she is delicate and with this knowledge, he held her with care as he kissed her lips. He refrained from her lips and gently kissed the nape of her neck and slowly moved to her chest. He can see that she was topless, wearing no bra in real fact She was on a transparent negligee. He looked at her and took her completely while she moaned, feeling what she has never felt before as a woman. How they ended up on the bed was quite unknown but as they searched each other lips, they cared less. He touched her hardened nipples and she shook with passion while with his lips he kissed each of them refraining to squeeze her breast tenderly. She moaned softly and surrendered herself to him with no remorse or shame. As he made to kiss the nipples again, her phone disrupted the whole process as it rang out. she ignored it completely but he reached out for it seeing that it was her father on the line. With her hands, she brushed back her long scattered hair and collected the ringing phone while Munah stood up and sat on the edge of the bed wondering what had come over him. He listened as she discussed with her father. She stood up and walked towards the home office that was two rooms away as she talked with him. She opened the door to her home office and entered while Munah wondered about the event that just transpired between the two of them. Is Adah obsessed? With this question, he searched tenaciously for answers within him. She is not, she is just a lady that has just discovered who she is and that is what love makes you discover. The best type of discovery is self-discovery because you discover it yourself without anyone's help or leadership. People can mention the parts of your body or the organs and systems within but none can help you discover yourself. Adah has gone through the rubicon and there is no coming back. This is what love makes you feel. A good book states that real and total love harbors no fear, this is the glorious self-discovery that Adah has attained and Munah is the one that this heavenly gift has rested on. He stood up and went to the fridge close to the huge bed and served some water for himself and also poured it out for Adah who was still busy on the phone. He took all in one gulp and poured another which he finished. Satisfied, he carried hers to the office and served her. She smiled at him and waved him to a chair. It was quite a long call but when it ended, She came rushing back into his arms. He held her and kissed her fully on the lips.

" You will be the only mother of my children Adah, this I promise you with all my heart. We have to wait and not spoil the things we are trying to build together." He said as she sat astride him on the chair and nodded in affirmation.

"I love you Munah. I seriously do. Sometimes I think of nothing except you." She said embracing him fully.

"Come I want to give you a gift so that my heart will be pleased..." She said standing up from him and holding his hands in hers as they moved out of her exotic wing of the mansion. He followed and together they came downstairs. She took him to a smaller car park in front of which was written her name, she opened the doors and the sight of exotic cars that met his was shocking.

"All the cars here belong to me. I want you to select one for yourself." She said with a big smile. Munah's heart skipped a beat as he was silent. Together, they walked around the building which housed cars that were still brand new. He came to a pro v8 and stopped while Adah clapped with delight and laughter. She went to the key stand and collected the keys.

"This car was bought eighteen months ago when I attempted coming back home but changed my mind. Daddy bought it for me to use but I did not come and since then it has never been used. I discovered that it was much more masculine than feminine.." Adah said with sweetness in her softly spoken voice. True to her words, the car is brand new with the seats still covered and everything is still intact. She opened the file containing the documents and handed it to him after which she hugged him. He kissed her fully leaning on the body of the car while she held him to herself.

" We will go to the authorities to effect the change of ownership to yours," she said with a smile looking at her lover with admiration.

"Thank you, my love...I am indeed blessed to be with you. I love you, Adah..." Munah said.

"Guest what? My father will speak with the agents of those four telecommunication companies. He will be putting in a bid for all four tomorrow by noon." Munah's heart seemed as if his ears will burst at the news that met his. His legs wobbled as he looked transfixed. He just hugged her without a word while Adah held onto him knowing that he is the brain behind this success story and Mr. Denson is doing all this not for himself but for his child and only daughter to be happy.

Adah later allowed him to go back home with his gift with much worry and reluctance. He promised to spend his day with her the next day which brightened her a little bit. They kissed goodbye and he drove off with his heart joyful. Gifting him a super exotic car was beyond his wildest dreams. Funny enough, the car has not been touched since the day of purchase. As he drove, he noticed that the tank is also filled to the brim, everything about the car is quite exotic and sophisticated. To him, it seems like a dream and even if it is, he will never want to wake up from it. As he drove to his destination, he discovered his phone ringing. He looked at the ringing phone and discovered that it was Mrs. Randolph that is trying to reach out to him. He picked up the phone and received the call. She wants to see him and it is urgent. She is at The Hamlet which he knows too well. He turned the corner as he made his way in the opposite direction that leads to The Hamlet.

The Hamlet is a hotel quite popular because of the housing services it also renders. You can decide to live permanently in the estate which is part of the hotel. The flats in the estate are not for sale but only for rent or lease. Occupants of the estate enjoy the services of guests as in a hotel. Munah met Mrs. Randolph at the bar that was facing an Olympic-sized swimming pool that was scanty. She was all by herself enjoying her drink and a full plate of grilled chicken and chips. Munah sat down on the opposite chair at her invitation while she made an extra order for him. They exchanged greetings and discussed the weather before the order arrived at their table. It was after the meal that Mrs. Randolph broke the uneasy silence between them.

"I want to believe that you are the one that recommended my name to the boss." She started looking at him with a smile.

"Yes, I did, and hope you are fine with the decision?" Munah asked looking at her as she nodded in affirmation.

"Well, I was surprised that the boss has such intentions and I wasn't a bit surprised because line father likes daughter." She said adjusting herself on her seat. Munah said nothing but remained calm trying to get at what she is trying to convey.

" I called you because I need help on the assignment given to me. You know that I am not from these parts so please I will want you to guide me." She said looking at him fully.

" I don't want to fail that young lady. Her drive and passion are enough motivation for me." She finished and checked her phone.

" You are one friend I have at the empire and I cannot say no to you. It will be difficult though because of my involvement with the boss. She needs me all the time." Munah said looking at her as she sipped from her drink.

"I understand and I see the way she has come to take you. To me, I see something beyond the boss and staff relationship." Mrs. Randolph said as she smiled. Munah smiled back knowing fully well that Mrs. Randolph has a way of finding out things that no ordinary eyes can search out.

"The way she smiles when she looks at you and her constant closeness to you. She always wants to be with you and until recently, I have never seen her so happy..." the lady concluded as she stretched out her legs. Munah still said nothing and rested on his seat trying to figure out how to effectively avoid Mrs. Randolph's intuition.

" All that you just said still cannot hold any water. I am her assistant and that's that. I cannot imagine such a lady falling for someone like men that cannot afford her even a good meal at Reynolds." Munah said looking at her reaction.

"I just want you to ensure that you treat her like a queen. She is an innocent girl, determined and good-spirited. I have known her since her high school days when I was with the overseas branch of the empire. Munah, the situation you are in is quite disturbing but prove to her that she can fully trust you and love you." Munah said nothing but as he sat and listened to her, he felt quite uncomfortable it seems she knows a lot. Though he trusts her he cannot just confide in her. His love and affection for Adah are sacred and that is what must be protected. She stopped talking and stood up, he just looked up at her height and wondered if ever she is married. Without being told, Munah knows that she should be in her late thirties or early forties. She is beautiful but Munah cannot compare her to Adah. She excused herself and left him alone on the table. He watched her disappearing frame and wondered why a well-to-do lady should be living alone and staying miles apart from her family. He stood up and walked to the almost empty swimming pool and looked into the bright water, What she has just revealed to him may be true but what does she want? He has promised to help her out with the project and that should be enough or is she a spy? He shook off the thoughts and believed that she is just been concerned and due to the years of being with them, she has developed an attachment to Adah. He knows that he owes Adah everything and even with his love, he cannot repay her all. Tomorrow, his mother will be taken overseas for proper treatment courtesy of Adah! Her possessiveness and jealousy are quite huge but he must find a way to help her and her emotions. He walked back to his seat and as he sat down, Mrs. Randolph appeared and they discussed further different matters that relate to the empire. She told him a lot, especially about the first family of the empire and how rich and famous they are to the extent of being named as one of the most feared families on earth because of what they command. He told her of his mother and she felt concerned feeling his pain. She consoled him and assured him that she will be fine in no time. He saw her off before walking to the car. He entered the car and was about to start the car before he remembered the housekeeper. He brought out his phone and called her number wondering what she wants to tell him.

She picked up the phone and after an exchange of pleasantries, the housekeeper explained to him everything that she feels Munah ought to know about Adah. Munah thanked her, before they hung up she begged him not to reveal their discussions to Adah. He laughed it off and gave his promise to her and they hung up. He thought about the discussion for a moment and wondered why everybody seemed concerned already in a relationship that is still at the budding stage. Probably, a soft spot for Adah but still he cannot wrap his head around the sudden mystery of interest, especially from those least expected.

He got home and parked the car, he was about to open the door when his phone rang and it was Adah. He spoke to her and could sense that she seems lonely. He did not feel comfortable with her tone and voice as she insisted that she could not sleep. He decided to talk to her assuring her of his love and affection, He told her a lot and heard her laughing out loud. She told him that she wants to give birth to as many children as possible for him and could not wait to become pregnant and be his wife. He listened and was deeply touched by her words. He promised her his undying love, affection, and care. He assured her that he will never live to look at another woman because of his love for her. He told her that he cannot wait to father every one of her children and as many children as she desires he will give them to her. They spoke for more than three hours as they assured each other of their love, promising each an undying love that will be endless.
