Needing her for a selfish reason

A few hours ago at school.

Inayah was walking back to class with a bottle of water when her phone buzzed. She looked at it and took a deep breath before answering.

''What do you want?''

''Butler James will pick you up tonight after school''

''Why?''

''Don't you think you need to show your gratitude to me for giving your house to you?''

''The house was already mine to begin with...''

''Don't be late'' the call ended and Inayah frowned as she looked at the phone.

''Hey, psycho, what are you doing there? the teacher is already in'' Sandra said to Inayah at a distance.

Inayah shook her head and went inside the class.

…..

S.B. CLUB 9.

Inayah followed a waiter until he stopped in front of a private room and turned to her.

''We are here, Miss''

''Thank you'' Inayah took a deep breath and muttered to herself. ''Calm down, Inayah. Just go inside, thank him even though he doesn't deserve it and leave immediately. That is the only way to survive''

''Are you ready to go in?'' the waiter asked politely.

''Yes, thank you'' Inayah opened the door and stood beside it, clearly making no attempt to go in further.

When she looked at the room, she marvelled at the design. ''Wow!!! Do they really have no use for money? A lot of people go to sleep hungry every day and yet they waste that on places like this?''

''The money they make here goes into supporting all the orphanages in the whole of Country M'' Jasper said and looked up to face her. He closed the document he was working on.

''Aren't you going to sit down. The game will be starting soon. Stalker'' he asked when he noticed her gaze was on his face. He wasn't wearing his mask. Strangely, he didn't feel like wearing a mask in front of her. she had already seen his face before; it didn't matter to see him again.

''Manchester United VS Real Madrid?'' Inayah muttered and suddenly turned to look at him. ''Stalker'? Excuse me but I think we already certified the fact that I am not a stalker''

''Sit down. They are about to start'' he said, turning his gaze towards the TV.

Inayah went to the last part of the couch and sat down. She made sure there was plenty of space between them.

''Sit and be comfortable. I won't eat you'' he said and looked at her

''I'm comfortable the way I am'' Inayah replied and looked towards the door when it opened. A waiter arrived with a trolley containing a basket of fruits.

''Whoa'' Inayah muttered as she licked her lips.

''Is late, I prefer fruits in the night. They are much healthier'' Jasper said as he looked at her.

''You know is late and yet you still asked me to come out here and meet you? Aren't you afraid of the paparazzi?'' Inayah scoffed. He was acting the opposite of his words.

''For their own safety; they dare not take pictures of me''

''Well, that's true. You think you own the world city because you have money. Is no surprise that I couldn't get a single picture of you without the mask from the internet. Mr. Miles, are you by chance ugly? Why do you wear a mask?''

''To keep people like you from jumping on me? My face alone is worth billions''

''Narcissist''

''You can eat anything here, but the apples are mine. You must cut them for me''

''Did you call me here to rub it into my face that you're a mighty god that shouldn't be messed with?'' Inayah stood up and washed her hands in the sink before she moved closer and picked the plate and fruit knife.

''I don't need to rub it to you; because you know very well how dangerous it is to mess with me. Haven't you learnt from the kiss the last time?''

Inayah's face turned red. ''Don't talk too lightlyly of it, Mr. Miles. That was my first kiss and I'm still angry with you for doing that to me without asking for my permission?''

''Did that boy ask for your permission before kissing you last night?''

''How did you know someone kissed me last night? Are you stalking me?''

''I have better things to do than stalk you. My CCTV captured it by chance. Why did you push him away?''

''It didn't feel right''

''Why? Did you feel like you were cheating?''

Inayah paused and looked at him, ''huh uh? Cheating? Excuse me but, yours truly here is not in any relationship for her to feel like she is cheating on anyone?'' Inayah placed the fruit she had cut into a plate and put a fruit fork beside it.

''So, you don't like him?'' Jasper picked the cut fruit and asked.

''Do I have to answer that? this is about my privacy''

''Anyways, what I did can't even be classified as a kiss. It was merely lips touching each other''

''Wow!!!! You're even more shameless than I thought. You make me speechless''

''So, in short, your first kiss is still intact and I will only say this once. I'm sorry''

Inayah turned to look at him with a shocked expression. The knife in her hand mistakenly cut her and she screamed.

''Aaah!''

Jasper immediately placed his fork down and took her hand to observe. ''Stalker, are you alright?''

Inayah took her hand back and placed her finger in her mouth and sucked the blood.

''Miss stalker, don't do those kind of things in front of a man''

''W…why?

''A pervert might think you're inviting him silly girl'' Jasper said and Inayah blushed. She picked her backpack saying.

''I have a finger aid band here'' Inayah removed the band aid and covered the cut part with it. 'Done!''

''Don't take it. Do you want to cut all your fingers? So clumsy'' Jasper stopped her when she picked up the knife again.

''Okay''

''Miss stalker''

''Yes'' Inayah frowned, 'no, I am not stalker. My name is Inayah''

''I have a proposition for you''

''A preposition? What is it? As long as it will guarantee you not kicking me out of my own house''

''It will''

''Tell me!!''

''I need you for a selfish reason''

''You need me'' Inayah chuckled.

''Nick thinks is a bad idea. He wants me to tell you and get you permission''

''What could that be? Wait!!! You're not going to ask me for one of my kidneys, right?''

''What happened that night was an accident but it made me realise something''

''What could that be?'' Inayah became curious.

''You're the only woman I can touch without getting a reaction''

''I don't understand''

''Nick will explain it better for you. You can go and see him tomorrow at the hospital''

''Okay. But, what do you really need me for?'' Inayah asked as she picked the juice jug and poured some juice into a glass for herself.

''I need you to try and seduce me'' Jasper said and turned to look at her, he touched her hand and stopped her when he saw the glass almost full. She had gotten distracted by his unusual; request and didn't look at the glass.

Inayah shook her head and asked. ''How am I going to do that? No, that is something I could never even imagine myself doing? This, I think you should choose someone else'' Inayah looked at her watch and stood up.

''No'' Jasper held her hand and pulled her making her to fall on his laps. He touched her arm and traced it down to her fingers making her quiver. ''I choose you. If you can't do it, then I will do it…the seduction''

''Why? Why… would… you. do. that? I am just a nobody''

''I told you… because I need you for a selfish reason'' he stood up with her and held her hand. ''Let's go. Is late''

When they arrived at her house, Inayah got down from the car and went straight into her house. She didn't dare to turn and look at him.
