After Walter left my room, I cleaned myself up, to be honest, that was also the best night of my life, the way Walter took control, the way he handled my body, and the communication in between made everything worthwhile. But my moral compass didn't let me dwell on those good moments forever, it was my first time doing the deed with a person I was not in a relationship with, so I did feel a bit guilty and ashamed. Given it was our first time, I couldn't walk up to him and ask what it meant, it was just sex and it did feel like it was just sex at that moment.
'It's just a one-time thing, it will never happen again', I tried pep-talking myself, and in came a text from Walter:
"Hey, how are you feeling now?"
He must've been feeling terrible to be texting so soon after he left, I sure had a way of taking the fun out of things,
"I am okay, Mr. Sekulu, please don't feel bad about what happened, I consented to it and it was kind of fun", I was a lot calmer now and I did enjoy it, there was no use in denying it, and acting like it was a mistake, and besides, it was never going to happen again, at least that is what I thought back then.
"That's a relief because I didn't know whether to rejoice or feel bad, now I know feeling good about it is not a bad thing, you were amazing last night...thinking about it makes me want more", he replied
"It was great, but let's not do it again, I honestly just got out of a relationship and I don't believe I am in a good space to commit or anything like that", I texted back
"Oh...I understand, I won't force you into anything and it is good that you are taking time off for yourself"
We continued to chat for some time, I felt even better the more we spoke. I loved how he made me feel understood and everything was simple with him.
I suddenly felt like working in the conference room, we managed to interact naturally with each other which did not raise any eyebrows. But I soon learned that going to the conference room was not such a bright idea, seeing Walter in action gave me flashbacks, the movement of his lips as he spoke, his hand gestures, and how he loosened his tie took me back to him dominating me.
The day went by very quickly and before I knew it, it was time for supper. I hurried to leave my laptop in my room so I could go back to enjoy supper with everyone as this was the last night and I hadn't sat with them for a while. Well, that was part of the reason, the main reason was that I wanted to see Walter one more time because I was not sure if he would come to my room, although I could not say it out loud, but I secretly wanted him to visit. Despite my outburst in the morning, I found myself wanting to be around him even more.
I placed my laptop on my desk in room, changed to something more comfortable, and let down my hair. I was not planning on working that night. I then grabbed my phone and hurried to the door only to be met by Walter
"Mr. Sekulu... what are you doing here? I was just going downstair to get fo-o-d", I suddenly noticed the food tray in his hand, "Oh...Do you want us to eat here? Why?", trying to hide my excitement
"Because I missed you and I -"
I quickly grabbed the tray and pulled him inside, "Clearly you do not have a reputation to protect, you can't just say things like that in public spaces, I don't want to be known as the woman who slept with her boss".
Walter laughed at me, he grabbed the tray from my hand and slowly set it on the coffee table. He then turned to me and pulled me into his arms for a big hug, although I didn't expect it, it felt nice and he had a very nice scent, it was not overwhelming but instead, it gave out a warm and homey feel, it was calming.
"I missed you, Ms. Thandie, I spent the whole day looking forward to this moment right here...."
