"The girl you love? What..."Timmy couldn't arrange the puzzle.
"Don't act dumb!..you used her for your desires and she gave up on love and resigned."
Timmy was speechless," You loved Marang! You are married for god's sake"
" You are the last person to tell me about marriage....so keep quiet!..you think I don't know that Naledi is your ex wife"
" So what do you want from me now?" Timmy shouted.
An ominous grin drew on his face, " I want your ex wife now!"
Without any moral decision, Timmy grabbed Rodney's collar. " Don't you dare! She might be my ex wife but I won't let a scum like you near her."
Rodney pushed Timmy away and straightened his clothes. " Control yourself Timmy, I'm your superior....as for Naledi, you are a fool to let go of a gorgeous and smart woman like her ..just to run after little interns."
" I'll never let you get close to her, I might have failed her back then but now I'll protect her because before everything I'm her best friend..."
" Sounds like failure to me just like how you'll fail this project..."
" It's not my fault, Marshall didn't trust you with this project... continue hating and dreaming and by all means please stay healthy Sir..." Timmy left.

Nicky got out of a toilet and met Naledi by the basins fixing her make up on the mirror. She just turned the tap on and washed her hands without even saying a word. She turned off the tap and silently walked towards the exit.
" I told Timmy's mom about you." Naledi revealed. Nicky stopped and turned back.
" She doesn't like me right?"Nicky asked.
"Well she doesn't know you so we can't conclude...do you want to visit them?"
" Yeah but Timmy doesn't want me to..."
" Well...then let's go together...in secret...I won't tell them it's you..."
" Why are you trying to help me?" Nicky asked.
" Because Timmy has always been my best friend, before everything....we were friends...and still today I'm his best friend."
" Okay then....I have nothing to loose anyway... you'll tell me when it's time to leave."
"Okay!" Naledi left the washroom leaving Nicky in complete confusion.
" What is happening nowadays?" Nicky questioned herself on the mirror.
****
Timmy was still trying to understand why he got so mad when Rodney talked about Naledi, did he still love her? And was he ever going to manage to live with her normally and suppress his relic feelings for her, or maybe this feelings have always been there.
" I need to get over this dilemma." Timmy sat in his office and just thought to himself.
Nicky came in without knocking since she new Timmy was alone.
" hi! Timmy..." She stood Infront of him.
Timmy retrieved his eyes from the ceiling and looked at her. " What do you want?"
" I'm sorry for being too selfish...I wasn't concerned about the fact that you had a break down. I just thought about myself...I'm sorry"
Timmy was suffocating, he was filled with anger. " Sorry? You amaze me Nicky, you are the very same person that accused me of cheating on you with my ex wife last night without even trying to check on me or Naledi....but you were concerned about silly things"
He stood up and faced Nicky.
" All you care about is if I did anything with Naledi or not right...you kept asking the whole night and I didn't respond!... right now I'm going to clear your doubts and give you what you want,"
Nicky was ashamed of herself, although it was her first ever serious fight with Timmy she new that she deserved his rage.
" Nicky...last night I made a move on Naledi and we rekindled our love... happy?"
" Timmy I know you are saying all this to make me mad but I understand my mistake and I apologize.. please babe forgive."
" Please just leave me alone for now."
" Okay..." Nicky broke into tears on her way out. Naledi passed her on the hallway on her way to the office.
" Hey! Why is Nicky crying..." Naledi entered with a question.
" I also felt bad too...so I want to be alone."
" Ohh! Then I'm going home...I'll catch a taxi, bye" Naledi packed her staff.
" Why separate we came together plus my car is more comfortable than a taxi."
" I thought you wanted to be alone?"
" I only want you around...let's go home "
Naledi was shocked, Timmy was acting strange. Could it be that he never got over her or he still took her as his best friend.
" Oh--kay"Naledi replied and both.

It was a bit weird because Nicky was not present. Naledi prepared dinner for the first time ever since she came.
The most awkward dinner they Ever had.Just the two of them and just the loud silence that made it uncomfortable .
Timmy took the first bite of the chicken and it sent him to heaven. He couldn't keep in his amusement.
" Mhhh! Just like always.... the first time you made this at my house, everyone was stunned and my mom suddenly declared you her daughter." Timmy laughed.
" Yeah...the magic is effective"
" I agree!" Timmy smiled and remembered something. " Naledi...I told
Nicky about happened in the car....I don't feel guilty because Max came and I got to my senses."
" What did she say?"
"She thinks I'm lying and trying to hurt her...just for revenge." Timmy laughed.
" Poor her! Timmy please get your head together and make her happy.... don't look at me and get tempted." Naledi stood up and went to the kitchen.
Timmy gobbled all the food and took the plates to the kitchen. He placed the plates in the zinc basin.
Timmy hugged her from behind. Naledi paused what she was doing as she felt his cold hands on her waist sides just aligned to the navel. She lowered her eyes to see if it was really happening.
She felt his breath on her neck from behind. The moment was fermiliar but the only difference was the atmosphere. She heard the thunders outside and it started raining.
" What are you doing?" She asked.
"You should wear this short vests more often... I'd love to see a lot of skin and just admire from afar." His most hidden triggering voice emerged.
His mouth was so close to ear that she felt as if it was an airpod. "Wait....when did he start speaking like that...why is he seducing me again?" Confusion raided her mind.
"Let me go, don't even think about it "
Naledi tried to push him off but he was still sticked to her.
" Don't push me away...I might as well end this rainy night blissfully...my over knowledge has ran out of storage..."
Naledi was in a dilemma, her mind reminded her of the consequences but her heart wanted it all. She walked to the living room hoping Timmy will leave her but instead he staggered behind her and didn't want to let go of her.
" Come on leave me alone bro...I got a man okay!"Naledi tried to a avoid him.
" Starhh"he whispered "stars are supposed to burn...so let me set you ablaze and luminate this lost star.."
Naledi remembered, when they started dating Timmy called her Star and it was cute but for this moment he managed to turn all that into something seductive and she fell for it. It seems he grew wiser and indeed he had a lot of knowledge.
" When did you start being this...huh!..you are just too good." Naledi finally asked.
" You like it..." He chuckled, setting waves of reflexes along Naledi's vertebra. "And I intend to finish off what we started last night..but this time, I'm not in a rush...so you can tell I have a lot of time on my hands to explore, same applies to you."
" That's it...you won...okay, now please don't disappoint me...you been telling me all sorts of dirty stuff..."
" That's my star..." He smiled and turned her around to face him.
" What happens now?" Naledi asked.
" All your senses are going to explode cause now there's no need for manners...you can activate Wilderness."
Timmy picked her up and nicely laid her on the couch and hopped on.
" Safety precautions, don't fall off try to be still... I'm gonna go down on you now..." As he said he began with his foreplay tactics. Before he could actually start the real foreplay...someone budged in without knocking.
Both of them stood up and saw the sudden visitor. They were all shocked at that moment.
" What___are you doing here?" Timmy asked.
" I knew it...you were lying, you....you betrayed me Timmy!"
" Fuck..I messed up...it's not what you think....." Naledi tried to explain.
