Chapter 15

"I waited for you Zella baby. But you didn't come." sadness crept into Anjo's voice.

I forgot that we would have met and talk. Taiden picked me up and went on a date. I smiled slightly.

"I'm sorry, Anjo. We had a...walk last night ... with Taiden." and Anjo's forehead wrinkled there.

"Where did you go?" he asked.

I really need to tell Anjo everything.

"Because ... Anjo. Taiden's...my boyfrienda now." I confessed to him and saw his shoulder fall.

"I understand, Zella." he forced a smile but I could see the pain pass through his eyes. "I hope he doesn't hurt you and I'm just here Zella when that happens." he smiled at the same time.

"So, you're not angry?" I asked.

He shook his head immediately and smiled.

"We're friends before my heart beats for you Zella." he said and I was relieved.

After Anjo and I talked, I saw Sofiya walking towards me. Why is it that Madam's house is so close to their house?

"I heard, Taiden picked you up? And kissed you?" she laughed at the same time as if she couldn't believe it.

"I don't have time for you, Sofiya." at once I turned around to get inside the house, but she grabbed my arm and pulled me slightly.

"What!"

"Just enjoy it Zella. You'll remember this, the two of us, you'll be the one who's end up crying and last laughter goes to me..." and she went into the house.

I was simmering with anger but I just held back. If I wasn't really indebted to this family, she would have seen how mad I am.

I immediately followed her into the house and went to the kitchen to drink some water. So that I could calm down my desire to skin Sofiya. You have a day with me, girl.

I was about to go to the garden to water the plants when I heard Sofiya's voice.

"Please ... give it to me. It's only two days." she sensually said.

I barely peeked through the curtain and I saw Taiden's back facing me.

"Fine." Taiden replied to her.

"Yes! Thank you so much, baby!" Sofiya said before she kissed Taiden's cheek and she clung to Taiden's neck. It seemed to lean on Taiden's chest.

Baby?

My heart ached slightly at what I saw. I took a deep breath and thought about what Taiden told me last night that ... he wouldn't hurt me. I calmed myself down. They are just like that because Madam is the god mother of Sofiya. But Taiden didn't move and he just let Sofiya do it which hurt my feelings.

I just decided to go to the bedroom. Tears immediately fled my eyes. I brushed it off because I didn't know why I was crying. It was just a hug and a kiss on the cheek. That means nothing. I took a deep breath to calm myself.

I was leaning against the back of the door when someone knocked. I hurriedly adjusted myself and dried my eyes, then I opened the door and saw that it was Taiden.

"Hey." he said and hugged me at the same time. "I'm looking for you all over the house, you're just here." he said while still hugging me.

I barely hugged him back.

"Why are you looking for me?" I said carefully not to crouch because I was just crying and I was afraid he would know that I saw him with Sofiya earlier.

"I wanted to say goodbye." he took a deep breath. "Sofiya's friend's birthday. She's taking me. Just two days. I'm gonna miss you, Ze."

He's here say goodbye? Not asking for my permission? But why does it seemed like he have decided to go.

"Is that so?" sarcasm was evident to my voice. "Okay. Be careful." I can only say. The delicate piercing in my heart returned at the thought that he and Sofiya would be together for two days. I trust him, but Sofiya, I don't. Not even a bit. So I knew she was doing this to hurt me.

He turned to me and rubbed my face with his palms.

"Don't worry 'bout her, Ze." he said and I don't know why he said that but I knew who he was referring to, and I was a little relieved there.

I nodded and he slowly approached my face while he kissed the bridge of my nose. He stared at me first before his lips gently touched mine.

It was like a candle burning in my place. Her kisses were so overwhelming and I feel like I'm gonna faint. He teased my mouth as if he was ordering me to imitate the movement of his lips, so I did just that.

He groaned and hold my waist tightly.

"Open your mouth ..." he ordered, and I was like a puppy who immediately obeyed what he said. His tongue immediately explored mine like he's looking something there.

He sucked my tongue and it made me moan and I held him in his neck firmly.

I feel like my whole body is heating up and so is Taiden.

His hands find its way to my breast and lightly squeezed them. I barely complained because of that. He was about to unclasped my bra when a phone rang.

"Fuck!" he said and irritably answered his cellphone. "What?!" he sneered at whoever called and I barely laughed there. Because we were so close I could hear what the person on the other line was saying.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. What are you doing and you're angry that I called you, huh?" says the other line.

He looked at me and bowed slightly so I also bowed and my eyes went to the big bulge there in his pants. My cheeks grew hot at what I saw and I immediately averted my gaze before I leaned on his chest and he hugged me.

"None of your business. What do you need?" he's annoyed.

"Ryan is asking for help again. His friend's daughter was kidnapped and the one who kidnapped Colton's girlfriend is also the culprit." says the other line.

"I'm leaving tomorrow. I will be away for two days. But you can send me the plan and location. I'll follow." Taiden calmly said.

Who are Colton and Ryan? And a child was kidnapped? Why are they asking Taiden for help? Why not the police? I was still listening while still leaning on Taiden's chest.

"And where the fuck are you going?" question of the other line.

"Sofiya..."he only said.

"Oh. Okay, I understand." that was the last thing the other line said and I frowned. Why does it seem like there is something going on that I don't know? Or I'm just too annoyed with Sofiya and I'm just over thinking. I immediately erased that from my mind.

Taiden and I couldn't do what we were supposed to do because Madam called him and sent him to their company because he had an urgent meeting.

Until late at night, Taiden still did not come home but Madam and sir Darius did. I also don't want to ask because we haven't told Madam about us yet.

It's 10 o'clock in the evening. Where is he? I decided to pick up my cellphone and texted him when I saw Suzie's message on the messenger.

"Check out Sofiya's Instagram. Faster!" she said and suddenly nervous surrounded me. What about Sofiya's instagram? I hurried to open instagram and I searched for Sofiya's name. She is not my follower and her account is not private.

I scrolled down immediately and a picture came up that had just uploaded. Sofiya took a selfie while there was a man without clothes behind her and facing the bed. He was wearing pants and I knew very well whose back it was.

Taiden.
