'The emotion of love in human hearts comes from a brain that creates a favorable field of magnetic attraction'
I've never slept and woke up feeling like the night couldn't end and bring up the day as early as I hoped for.
Am up for a jog and I feel cheerful so early, I can't seem to get everything out of the way so I can get to my boyfriend.
The world is full of different exceptions, I didn't know a feeling like this was possible to feel.
I head home and shower before I change into jeans that I top with a white unsleeved top.
I wore them with black boots.
I walk downstairs and some people in my family are awake and in those I mean Dad and Yarrow.
I find them in the kitchen.
"Hey boys," I say to them with a smile.
"Dad? Did you hear her? Boys? Me and you, boy? Sam, what world are you from that you get to call men like us boys?" I look at Yarrow and just roll my eyes at him.
'What world is he from that he gets to call himself a man? Dad is yes. But him?'
"Am sorry man of America," I say to Yarrow then turn to my father.
"Good morning Dad?"
"Good morning sweetie." I grab an apple and turn to walk back out of the kitchen.
But my dad holds me back.
"Lily Samantha, please remember to come back earlier and start preparing for the exams, you know you are approaching the end of the semester, and as much as I feel proud of you sweetheart. Always remember to find and maintain the balance of your life." I nod at my father. I know the reminder was necessary and I need to keep it in my mind.
Time flew much more than I expected and it all thanks to the embassy of America.
I always felt like it was yesterday I didn't want to fly here but now am starting the start of the fifth month.
"I love you, Dad," I say to him before I kiss him air kisses and I turn to point my index finger at Yarrow.
"Same to you too honey," I say to my brother and he kisses me air kisses too.
"You have my heart baby girl." I smile before I walk out of the house.
I get in my car and drive to the embassy playing some good music in my car. I feel so good and so cheerful, God nothing that can bring me down today.
I walk into the ambassador and it's when it hits me that this building turned out to get me through the time that I have spent here.
If it were something I could hug I would love to hold it close to me and say thank you but as I stand in the middle of the reception and look forward. I still express my appreciation.
'Thank you.' I mutter a silent appreciation in my heart.
It is necessary to appreciate the little things that comforts us in times of despair.
Not every shiny, valued, big thing is what we need, sometimes it's the neglected ones.
I sigh and walk to Kai's office not wanting to be dramatic because I could feel myself getting emotional.
I expect to find the office empty but I gasp in pure shock and horrified surprise, when I find Kai in the office.
"Oh my God," I say and he looks up at me. "Kai?" He smiled looking pleased with my presence but I could still feel my heart descending from my mouth, I almost brought it out of my mouth out of pure surprise.
"Darling." He says getting on his feet and walking over to me.
He takes me up in his arms and I don't hesitate to hug him back.
We pull back and I lean closer to him and kiss him because I've been dreading to have his lips back on mine since I left him yesterday.
We pull back and I open my eyes to look at him. "I missed you." I did last night so much but I didn't know I was going to be ratting myself out.
"You did?" He asks and I nod.
"I felt like the night couldn't get over for me to come to you, isn't this crazy? We started dating yesterday but am head over heels for you that I feel like every passing second of the day spent without being together with you is wasted."
I say to him and he just brings his palm on my cheek and caresses it slowly.
I look up in his blue eyes and like always I drown in them.
"I know darling. I missed you too so much and that's why I arranged a surprise and a gift for you today."
"Surprise and a gift?" I ask because I don't think I heard him right.
He brings his arms down to my waist and draws me closer to him and when I look up to him he nods at me.
He pulls some hairs out of my eyes.
"Are you ready?" He asks and I just nod.
"Go and wait for me in the car." He pulls his arms away before he puts his car keys in my palm.
I looked at him and I could feel the confusion grow bigger with every passing second. "I will join you in five minutes." He says when he realizes I am not moving.
I just nod my head and turn around to walk out of the office to his car.
I head to the parking lot and my eyes instantly fall on his black jeep.
I grin at myself when I realize something.
I walk to it and open it and get in behind the wheel.
"I am driving this shit," I say to myself as I wait for Kai.
As I wait for him I realize I can also be using it to my gain. I pull out my phone and take some selfies of myself in the car.
Kai comes when I am busy doing that and when he opens the door of the driver side, my phone falls out of my hands in surprise.
"You keep scaring me today," I say to him accusingly as I reach for my phone down.
I pull it up and I turn to look at him.
"Do you want to have a selfie with me? But no, let's have one anyway. The first photo of us marking our day two while being in a relationship." I turn and rest my back on him and smile as I pose for the picture.
I do a lot more poses when he just stands there only looking at me.
I don't whine at his lack of photogenic because the look he has in his eyes as he looks at me while I pose, is above many poses he could have pulled.
"This will do, turn on your airdrop I will send them to you."
"What are you doing in the driver's seat?" I turn and smile at him before I reply.
"And I thought you were smart?"
He brings his hands in his pockets and I realize then, what he is wearing. He is wearing casual clothes. A pair of blue jean pants with a white shirt that looks nicely oversized and somehow fits him.
He looks casual like he wasn't here for work.
"Are you taking me to your suite for you to change?" I ask and he slowly looks down at his clothes before he raises his eyes on me.
"What is wrong with these I am wearing?"
"You look too casual for work," I say and he just smiles at me.
"That reminds me that we have to go." He says and I nod. "Okay, get in the car then if we have to go."
"You are not driving." I hate how simply he says that. "Oh, I am driving this car." He shakes his head. "It's not in the same model as the ones you are used to driving."
"I know how to drive the model of this car," I say but he doesn't look a little convinced about it. "Get in and I will show you."
"I would love to see you do but darling, where I am taking you it's a surprise." He says and I frown.
"Screw the surprise and tell me already, Anyway where is my gift. I searched this whole car down but I didn't find anything."
"I can't tell you and we are getting late baby." The pet name has me grinning like a baby and coming in agreement with him.
"Just because you called me baby but I am driving when we are coming back." He moves closer to me and kisses me a closed-mouth kiss before he moves his lips to my forehead and lays another kiss there.
"Just take the car if you want it, baby." I just smile, what else would I do in this blissful moment?
I change seats with him and after he gets behind the wheel, he starts the car. I don't bother looking outside at the roads because I already know I can't make out to where we are driving.
It takes us half an hour to reach where he is taking us and when I look around, I frown when I realize it's an airport.
I turn to look at Kai. "What are we doing at an airport?"
"Do you trust me?"
"Yes, I do," I say without a second thought, I've trusted him way before we even started being a thing.
"Let's go then." He gets out of the car first and reaches into the back seat to retrieve a jacket.
Then he walks around where I am and takes my hand in his.
"Trust me." I don't doubt going with him blindly because even if it were our first time meeting I would still go with him.
Judge me but please just know that my mother taught me better, but people have instincts and mine told me to trust this man the moment my eyes landed on him. It's like I know him from somewhere in another life.
We don't pass through some checking, he walks me to the backside and I realize we are heading to a place parked in a helicopter.
I don't ask because I am just going to let him do his things.
We head to the helicopter and he walks first in front of me to greet the pilot and then he turns to me.
He smiles at me. "You first." I nod step in front of him and head into the helicopter.
He comes after me and after buckling ourselves.
We put on some headphones because I believe there will be too much noise in here.
It is my first time riding a helicopter but instead of being scared, my feelings are way far from feeling scared instead as the pilot flies in the air I feel excitement in my core.
The ride of a helicopter feels so much different than that of a plane.
I look outside getting carried away by the view below when I feel a hand on top of mine.
I turn to look at Kai.
"This is amazing thank you," I say to him and then it hits me that this might be the surprise or gift he had for me.
"Don't thank me yet, you haven't seen anything." As if reading my mind, he instantly says and I frown.
"What do you have in store for me Kai?" I ask with a smile on my face when I realize he won't be breaking his silence about what he has in mind.
"Patience is the key darling." He replies before he draws me closer to his chest so that both he and I turn to stare outside.
I don't question anything because if anything I know I was born with patience.
We both look outside enjoying one another's company in between the chaos of a helicopter.
It doesn't take long until finally, the pilot starts landing on the ground.
We get on the ground and make our way out. Kai turns to thank the pilot and turns to me and leads me to some people standing right there looking like they were waiting for us.
I turn my head to side and run my eyes around my surroundings but I don't find something useful to notify me where we might be.
We are in between very long and many trees and apart from the parking of a helicopter that is built everything else on the ground is in the green tropical.
We get closer to the people I don't know and one of them says to us.
"Good morning Mr Royal, Good morning ma'am. Welcome to the one and only gorilla's nest. Am by the name of Grace, the man on my left is called Alpha and the woman on my right is called Elizabeth. We are all at your service." She calls me ma'am and frowns at how I hate being called that when I catch Kai's eyes on me.
I look at him and it takes me back to the first time we met, him also called me ma'am.
He smiles and I know he is thinking the same thing too.
I smile before I roll my eyes.
'Ma'am, woman am younger than the kids you probably have.'
"Thank you." I hear Kai say but am still confused to where we at.
I tap on Kai's arm and he turns to look back at me and I ask.
"What is this place? Are we still in Rwanda?" Instead of replying to me, he just smiles at me.
"This way sir and ma'am."
'Woman stop addressing me as ma' am, am not in your age.' I roll my eyes as I follow behind them.
Sometimes people think that being addressed as an old person when you are young is respectful but in my mind, I don't find it any way respectful.
I take it more like you are trying to steal my age and bringing me closer to death.
We walk in between the trees but there is a way made to walk in.
We walk a few feet away before I start making out a view of a house.
We get closer to it and I realize it's a beautiful villa.
The view of it starts getting clear and it hits me how beautiful it is but am still confused as to what we are doing there.
We keep on walking until we get on the porch of the house and the people stop before they turn to us.
"Everything is set to your liking and command sir." She says and I frown in confusion.
I look around and the place to me looks like those places that people are taken to in some movies to play some messed up games planned by some millionaires to please them or earn them some money as they bet on their lives.
Grace says everything is set to Kai's liking and command and I start feeling some doubt creeping inside of me.
No one knows I came here, hell I don't even know where I am at.
I raise my eyes to Kai and he is also looking at me and I could feel myself not knowing who I am looking at for a moment, as the doubting thoughts fill my mind.
"What is going on here?"
