She quickly left her office and went outside,She quickly noticed his car as it was flashy,She entered inside the car and looked at him sternly.
What do you want Jake? Emma asked.
I brought lunch for my girl,I made you breakfast and you turned it down,so I'm here again,He said with a smile.
Am not hungry,you can eat it instead..Am busy,Emma said and was about to leave the car when he muttered "Leave and see what happens".
You're really making things difficult for me...for US Emma,Stop acting up..,you know you want me back and I want you also,He said.
To hell with you, Emma said and he smiled.
You're becoming really daring,I think I know how to cut your wings,He said and instantly you could tell he was talking about your mom.
You said if I be with you, you'll not harm my mom..,
I did?.
I mean it's all in your hands,if you're ready to fully be with me.., you'd stop rejecting me,Jake said.
You weren't like this Jake,what changed you? Emma ask tears forming on her eyes.
I'd do anything for you,even if it means changing a lot of things,With a smile he handed you the take away he bought.
Now be a good girl and eat it okay,He said and planted a kiss on her cheek making her disgusted.
Emma left his car and made way to her office, throwing the food quickly into the bin and thoroughly wiping her cheek which he kissed.
Emma sat down at her table with a deep sigh,things had quickly taken a downward hill.
She felt crushed and helpless that she couldn't do anything,or tell anyone..,she could only cooperate till she figured out something.
Regaining composure,she continued working but was lost in thought so she finished late,When she was done,she took the report files to Ryan's office.
You're late,He said as she opened the door.
I..um I'm sorry, I'll work faster next time,She said hiding the truth.
He flipped through the files lost in thought"Have you eaten today"?.
Huh?..
I'm not really hungry,Emma replied and Ryan closed the file and got up from his chair.
He went over the sofa and unpacked the take away he had, It was a lot..did he intend to eat all that?.
C'mon..He said and Emma moved closer before sitting beside him.
I've not had anything to eat either..,So let's eat,He handed her a chop stick.
They began to eat quietly..,it was silent but it was peaceful till Ryan said.
The car you entered earlier..,Was it you boyfriend? Hearing this Emma choked on the food she was eating as Ryan quickly poured her a glass of water.
Are you okay?He asked looking at her flushed face as she nodded.
Silence enveloped again till she replied "He's not my boyfriend".
Hearing this he nodded gently with a smile.
They had both finished eating and cleared the takeaway.
Thank you for.. the food,Emma said with a smile and he nodded gently.
She looked really pretty when she smiled,He thought.
Am just hoping next time it'll be at a restaurant..,He said and Emma blinked before she understood.
Did he indirectly say he wanted to go on a date with her..,She smiled gently.
It's already late let me take you home,He suggested and she nodded.
Inside the car,she gave him a different address from the last time he dropped her.
You changed your house?,He asked.
Yeah,She nodded.
Thank you for the lift..
My pleasure,He responded as she smiked and walked off.
Watching her walk into the house,he felt a feeling emptiness and imagined after a stressful day,they both walked into the same house together,He drove away quickly.
Emma opened the front door and walked inside,Jake was sitting on the couch,As she entered he turned to look at her.
Seems like you're not faithful.,He said as Emma walked into the house.
What are you saying?.
You let a guy drop you off at home this late.
It's not a big deal.., He's my boss, Hearing this Jake scoffed.
Right your boss..And what kind of boss drops his employee at home?,He asked now standing up.
Emma was quiet till he moved closer "Like I said he was just being nice".
Nice..nice huh with my girlfriend..,why didn't you call me to bring you back then,He said now holding unto your arm.
Let go you're hurting me,Emma cried out in pain.
You act all righteous..,Am pretty sure you were having an affair when we were dating,Infuriated by his words Emma used her free hwnd to slap him.
Never.. associate You and I,were completely different..,she sniffled and he pushed her to the wall and tried to kiss her while she moved her head around to avoid his lips.
Soon his phone rang which he ignored then it continued,songs tried to silence it as Emma saw this opportunity and pushed him before running to her room and locking the door.
She rested her back on the wall and gradually her legs gave way as she sat on the ground crying.
In all her years of dating Jake,He had never treated her like this,Emma was overwhelmed with lots of emotions as she tried to calm down but her cry's grew stronger till eventually she fell asleep on the floor.
Ryan had gotten home and was smiling,His workers were shocked at how happy he was.
And what's got you so happy and excited,A voice came from the living room.
Mom?..,He waked closer to her.
So are you going to tell me or what?,His mom pushed to know.
It's nothing,He said and smiled less while his mom observed.
It's about a girl, isn't it?.
What no..I mean it is but it's not what youre thinking.
Really so tell me.
It's just an employee of mine..,We just had dinner together.
Then I'm right,It is a girl,His mom said excited.
You actually found someone you liked,I never knew this day would come,She jubilated excited.
He liked her???.
