Chapter 21

His mom tried her best to be as friendly as possible and it was because Yvonne was a kind-hearted person as well. Leaving them to go purchase what he was sent to get, Yvonne stayed back with his mom and he knew that there was nothing to fear. Noticing that her son had left and was far, she walked closer to her with a smile, and sitting next to Yvonne, Gael's mother was curious to know how such a beautiful and wealthy lady had known her son.

She did not see her son with so many people most especially ladies so she was very curious to know how they had met. Clearing her throat and mustering the courage to ask Yvonne her questions, she looked towards the stove once more to have a check that she had closed her pot. It was an honor for her to meet Yvonne because her son's friends did not come home regularly but when she asked, Yvonne told her politely how she had met Gael and also added that they were not friends.

But what his mother told her, made the situation to be a little bit different as she began to see him differently and tried to understand him more. She realized that they had started on wrong for and that was why there was so much tension between them.

The anger in her face was slowly disappearing and a strong breeze began passing. It was so hard that she thought it was going to carry her skinny self away.

"Do not be scared, it is the rain that is coming," she muttered but you are still cooking what will happen now or will you take it inside and continue the process because it is going to be difficult out here but Gael's mom shaking her head, anticipated that the rain will only plunge when she must have finished with what she as doing outside.

Tasha could not find some sleep so she wanted to call her friend again, but she stopped for a moment not knowing what it was a good idea or not. Thinking to herself what she had done by giving the job to someone like Gael, she felt scared of not knowing the outcome of things as she did not know where the location of his house was but Knew the name.

"Who will go to such a place to look for you, Yvonne? things were not supposed to turn out this way," she mumbled. Her heartbeat raised than the usual one but there was something about Gael that was tryst worthy and so she felt like she did not have any reasons to worry.

Going to the kitchen to get a bottle of water like she always did every night before going to bed, she could listen to the sound of heavy rainfall from outside which gave her a cold sensation that moved all around her body.

Gael was back with the items and immediately he got home, the rain turned on leading him happy that it did not get to meet him outside. His mother told him to take Yvonne behind the house where could have her bath and the expression on Yvonne's face was that of a scared person. Swallowing the lump that jar formed up in her throat, she felt sweat come down her back.

"You don't need to be afraid, I will wait for you," he muttered. Yvonne looked at Gael keenly and noticed that he was not as bad as she was seeing him, maybe because it was the conversation that she had engaged with his mom that made her opinion towards him change.

Turning her head to look at his mom, she felt realized just by looking at her and the joy she felt each time she spoke to her, made Yvonne feel at home. Gael told Yvonne to let him carry her inside, he also added that he has a pair of new towels that she could use.

His mother was happy to see them like that without quarreling and she already liked Yvonne so much without even being able to explain why she was feeling that way. She connected the stove and continued cooking before it got too late.

Yvonne was in Gael's arms and there was nothing more beautiful than feeling his cycles holding her while he could not stop smelling her hair with the fragrance from her body.

"She is not only beautiful but she smells food as well," Gael murmured in his heart while feeling a hardness in his trousers. Twisting his face in confusion, he was embarrassed by the situation and wished that Yvonne does not notice what was happening to him. It was very unlike him to get an erection carelessly and in such a situation but having a thin sentiment for her after all the good things he had observed about her, he could not help but feel for her.

Gael was forced to compare Yvonne and his ex-girlfriend Lisa, who had nothing but was very arrogant towards him and all the others in the community just because she knew she was beautiful but Yvonne who has everything, yet she still had the love for other people and shows appreciation.

He let out a smile as he thought about all those things but the most important of them all was the fact that his mother was fun of her without any particular reason and seeing her smile and chat with a stranger in that manner, gave him some joy.

Reaching the bathroom, that was outside, Yvonne felt scared to even step down from his arms. Her heart was beating in her chest while she could not live where she was to have her bath.

"I am scared Gael, and what are those sounds that I am hearing?" she asked holding tight to his dress. Seeing how afraid she was, Gael felt good hearing her call his name for the time ever since they knew each other through it felt crazy because they had just recently known each other.
