Honestly , am not happy with what they just did, they can gossip all they want about me but not at work ! To make it worse , it's time for work , I don't blame them, they are surprised about the new me but that shouldn't be the reason they ditch work to talk about me !
By the time I go back in the office it's 6.14pm , I pick my things and lock the door, I don't see them going home and am wondering what they are upto now , just as am about to enter the elevator I see them running towards me , Alina leading the group. "Sir , we're terribly sorry, we're even ashamed of ourselves and that will never happen again, we've decided to work overtime to compensate for the time we wasted."
" It's fine, you can go, no need for that."
"But sir..."
" Didn't you hear me??" I cut her.
" Thank you , sir ." They say as they go.
When I finally get down..
I enter my car, start the engine and then set off, I don't even want to look at my phone since morning, besides, I've now realized that once I start talking to her, I become a zombie and don't even move, forgetting about everything.
So if I dare start texting while sitting in the car I might sleep here , this is so funny and crazy at the same time, I also can't seem to stop wanting to contact her.
And that's exactly what I do once I get in the house, Smiling and laughing like an idiot at just stupid things she says.
You know what.. yeah , maybe... no , not maybe, am really into her, there's no other explanation of what am feeling towards her .
Reaching in the house, I take the order I made and start eating, cooking has never been my thing , so I keep ordering all the time or eat in a restaurant but in a private room or you can call it a VIP room.
Ugh.. food is tasteless today , I take the remaining and put them in the fridge then I head to my room , today I even decide not to take a shower at night because thinking about it.. only morning shower is enough for a day , back then I used to bath twice a day.
I jump on my bed after changing into pajamas, I unlock my phone impatiently, straight to her name, I find 3 messages from her , damn I can't suppress my happiness , not until I start reading the messages.
*Tayler*: Too late to delete I already listened to it haha... I can't stop laughing, this has just made my day.. you have made my day.
*Tayler*: Hey , still working??
*Tayler*: Text me when you get off work.
Only the first text is the one that made my smile drop but the other two had just taken me in another world, does she miss talking to me?? Is that why she texted that?!
Me: Missing me already?? (Sent)
*Tayler*: maaan.. if you hadn't texted me just now I would have collapsed by now.
Me: Haha.. thank God I texted just in time.But don't call me that ,you sound like a man.
*Tayler*: Most of my friends are boys, so am used to talking like them.
That doesn't just sound right to me.
Me: So am just another one of them.
*Tayler*: What do you mean by that?
Me: Nothing, forget it.
*Tayler*: You are jealous?!
Me: can't I be?
*Tayler* : I don't understand why you would be.
Me: Ah.. By the way , when is your school break ending.
*Tayler*: Why are you suddenly changing the topic.
Me: Because it was boring,,, how's your brother.
*Tayler*: Fine
Me: what are you doing.
*Tayler*: Talking to you,, what do you think..
Me: Do you like this,I mean , talking to me??
*Tayler*: what is wrong with you today?? You seem uhm..I don't know how to say it.
Me: maybe am just tired from work.
*Tayler*: so when you're tired from work you always flirt?! Haha you make me laugh.
Me:I wasn't flirting ! Anyway,, do you like the flirty me??
*Tayler*:Go To sleep, you're tired,,
Me: Okay, but can I call you first.
*Tayler*: not now it's too late. Am also tired I'll go sleep now ,,good night.
Me: okay.
Am trying so hard not to let myself go right now, because I don't want her to know just yet. Maybe I can tell her once am there, that's if she'll agree to meet me.
I can't deny it anymore, am into her ,, whatever, I didn't want to stop talking just yet but if she wants to go to sleep that's fine, right now am just having different kinds of emotions.
But first I need to know if she has someone, am just gonna ask , I don't care what she'll think about it.
Me: Asleep??
Please don't be asleep,,text me ba..."ngrrr ngrrr"
*Tayler*: Almost.
Me: Are you lying to be sleeping when you're talking to your boyfriend ?? You can just tell me, I have no problem with that, am your friend anyway.
*Tayler*: No, I don't have a boyfriend, have I answered your questions?! Am sure your questions was 'do you have a boyfriend?'
*Tayler*: You are so weird today , what did they feed you at work today??
Me: Really?! You don't have a boyfriend ??
*Tayler*: Nop, do you wanna be.
Me: I mean , would you want me to be??
*Tayler* : Goodnight Tenor, am sleepy , talk tomorrow.
What?! Is she just gonna leave me hanging like this , she's the one who asked and she end the topic just like that?! 'this is the first time she's typed my name, feels good.
Crazy me..I think I've been suppresing myself so much, now it's coming with force.
I need to sleep, I don't even know if I will, I pull the duvet and cover myself and wait to see if the sleep will have pity on me and pick me up as it passes by.
