She picked up the call
"Hello, she smiled"
"Good evening beautiful," Kendrick said.
Good evening.
"How are you doing? He asked.
Fine, thank you.
Alright.
You thought I was never going to call right?? He asked.
"Kind of" she smiled.
"I wouldn't dare that" he replied calmly.
"Alright. How was work today? She asked.
"Fine, but I would love to see you soon," he said.
Okay.
"Will you be free tomorrow? We could just go somewhere just to cool off.
Okay, that's fine.
"Alright", I'll text you the address.
Okay.
"Alright" Goodnight.
Good night.
Call ended...
"Hmm hmm," Lauren scoffed.
What?
For how long have you been standing there? she asked Lauren.
A minute or two, I don't know.
It's him right? She winked.
"Lauren gets lost," Loretta said placing her phone on the makeup stand.
That isn't happening."I'll be right here waiting for you to come give me the full gist"She smiled sitting on the bed.
"Crazy" Loretta nodded her head and entered the bathroom to pick something.
....
Later that night, Loretta decided to gist Laureen about Kendrick.
"Okay, I'm listening," Laureen said with all seriousness.
One thing about Laureen is that she likes gist more than any other thing in this world. She could stay all night gisting with Loretta and she won't feel a thing.
They love each other so much and they also tell each other practically everything.
I told you about what happened in the garden right? She asked Laureen
Yeah.
"Okay. That same strange handsome man happens to be the same Kendrick Robert, the CEO of KR enterprise that my company partners with" she explained.
"Waoooow" Laureen exclaimed.
Yes, girl.
Okay, What happened afterward? Laureen asked
"After meeting at our office, I met with him days after to give him insight into the new development concerning the ongoing project" Loretta explained.
Okay??
"Yes, He took my contact after he verified from the meeting that I was the one he saw at the garden" Laureen explained.
Okay, tonight is his first time calling you? Lauren asked.
"Yep," Lorreta replied.
"That's nice" Laureen smiled.
Do you like him? She asked.
"Slow down babe, I'm just meeting this guy for goodness sake" Lorreta rolled her eyes.
"Ok, Let's search him online" Laureen suggested.
Why? Loretta asked.
"I want to see what he looks like," Laureen said.
Loretta reluctantly typed his name on her browser and showed it to her.
"Oh my goodness" Laureen screamed.
This man is damn hot. How can someone be this cute?
It's okay Laureen.
"Stop fantasizing nonsense already" Loretta collected her phone from her.
"But seriously, he's hot," Laureen said.
"Yeah I know" Loretta smiled.
Great. What are you wearing tomorrow? Laureen asked.
"Anything I can lay my hands on," Loretta said.
No way. "You'll have to look beautiful and hot".
He needs to see all those sexy curves of yours" Laureen explained with all seriousness.
"Laureen, stop being dramatic," Loretta said.
I'm not. "I'll help you find something to wear. Just leave that to me" she smiled.
Alright, ma'am.
So, please can we go to bed now? Loretta asked already placing her pillow right to sleep.
"Yes ma'am," Laureen said and they both laughed.
....
On Saturday.
Loretta was making breakfast in the kitchen when Laureen rushed in with her phone.
"You have a call," She said to Loretta.
Oh, thanks.
She collected the phone from Laureen and stepped out of the kitchen to pick up the call.
Hello
Good morning life saver.
Good morning. "Please who am I unto??" She asked.
Roy Albert.
Roy Al...The guy from the supermarket? She asked.
"That's right," he said.
Alright. How are you doing?? She asked.
I'm great. "Thank you for saving me some shame the other day," he said calmly.
C'mon, that was not a big deal. "I'm glad I could help." She said.
Alright. How is your weekend going? he asked.
Smoothly, Thank you.
Alright. Please can I ask you for something?? He asked.
Sure.
"A dinner just to say thank you," he said.
"There is no need for that," she said.
Please just one dinner." Please" he pleaded.
Alright, if you Insist.
"Thank you" he smiled.
Is tomorrow okay with you? He asked.
Yeah.
Okay. I'll text you the address.
Alright.
Okay. "Do take care and have a lovely day ahead." He said.
"You too" She replied calmly.
Call disconnected.
"Hmmm, Someone is becoming a celebrity gradually" Laureen teased.
"You're not serious" she smiled and went back into the kitchen.
I'm glad you're finally losing up a bit.
The you I used to know, is always picky and probably wouldn't have given your contact out even if he brings down the heaven to the earth" Laureen teased.
Don't be so sure. "It's just a harmless dinner" Loretta replied.
Going for dinners is always the starting point. "Remember when I used to say it was just a harmless dinner with Matt, but here we are now," Lauren said.
From a dinner to subsequent dinners and from subsequent dinners to just make out. From just make-out to hot and mind-blowing sex. "I mean look at us now," Laureen explained.
"That's you anyways, but a mind-blowing sex wouldn't be a bad idea" Loretta winked at Laureen.
"Spoilt brat" Laureen coursed.
Hold on, when was the last time you get laid? Laureen asked.
"Long enough to want to get laid again" Loretta smiled.
"I guess you need that mind-blowing sex" Laureen nodded and Loretta laughed.
In the evening, she got dressed and drove out to the venue she was supposed to meet up with Kendrick.
Deep down she already knew he was going to be there before her.
Loretta was dressed in a fitted long gown that complimented her curves.
Loretta has very fresh and smooth light skin, coupled with a banging body shape and straight legs.
.....
Kendrick got there at the exact time he sent to her but he wasn't sitting at his reserved table.
He was seated at the extreme edge of the VIP lounge quite enclosed from view.
He saw her walk in like the queen that she is. He purposely didn't sit at the table.
5minute became 10minutes.
He still didn't move from where he was seated. He could see that she was trying to call but his phone was on airplane mode.
10 became 15 minutes. 15 minutes became 20 minutes.
.....
Loretta was surprised that he wasn't there when she got in.
She waited for a few minutes yet no sign of him anywhere.
She tried calling but his line wasn't connecting.
She inquired the barman who directed her to the table if he has an idea of his where about but he doesn't.
After she waited for thirty good minutes, she decided to leave.
Just as she was about to step out, she heard a voice called from behind.
"Hello beautiful," he said with a charming smile.
"Hi," Loretta said looking slightly pissed off.
"I'm so sorry for keeping you waiting" he apologized.
"Okay," she replied.
"Can we go back and have our dinner? Please?" He asked.
Loretta followed him back to the reserved seats and in no time they were served.
.....
Kendrick couldn't take his eyes off her throughout the dinner. He has never come across a lady like her.
Despite standing her up for roughly half an hour, she still composed herself. This is something most successful working-class ladies don't possess.
"This young lady is going to be mine no matter what it takes me," he said to himself.
Kendrick does that to Virtually any girl he takes to dinner and none of them has once passed except Loretta.
This proves that she isn't just a classic girl but also a responsible and gentle lady and that's all that he wants.
Kendrick has always prayed to meet a lady who is successful on her own and above all, a patient and easy-going person, that he just found in Loretta.
Are you still angry with me? He asked.
Not at all. "I understood probably you were tied down with something or it could probably be the traffic." She explained.
Okay. "Thanks for your understanding" he smiled.
You're welcome.
They talked about work and some stuff while they both eat.
Loretta who is always not so free with having dinner with her clients or business partners that is not related to work finds it funny how she's so free with Kendrick.
She told him and he only smiled.
"I guess maybe it's because this will be happening often from now henceforth" he smiled.
"I don't understand," she said calmly.
Don't worry.
So tell me, do you have a man in your life? Kendrick asked.
"Yes of course" she smiled.
"Wow," Something serious or just for fun? He asked.
Of course it's something serious. I don't joke with him" she smiled.
Kendrick felt bad but he couldn't back down just like that.
"He's so lucky then" he replied sipping his drink.
"No, I am the lucky one" she smiled.
Why? He asked.
"He has shown me, true love. He always put me before himself and that alone is something no man can ever beat" She said.
"Nice" Kendrick only nodded his head.
