.
“Do you mean this house is mine?”. I asked
teary.
Austin moved closer to where I was standing
and placed his left hand on my shoulder. He
brought out a white handkerchief from his
pocket with his right hand and wiped my tears
with it.
“You won’t even stay here till the end of this
year. I just want you to manage here for now “.
Austin said.
“When did you start planning this “. I asked.
“From the moment I saw how your husband…
Sorry, your EX husband humiliated you”. Austin
said.
“Why are you making me fall for you
effortlessly?”. I asked.
Austin let out a very loud laugh. He moved away
from where I was and gave me a mischievous
stare.
“And why are you making my heart beat faster
than usual right now?”. I asked as I walked
towards him.
Austin moved to where I was and grabbed me
by waist.
For a moment, my heart stopped beating. I felt
movements of butterflies in my tummy.
Austin moved his face closer to mine.
At this moment, my knees became too weak to
carry my body as I struggled to stand firm.
“Please God, don’t let him kiss me, I don’t think I
will be able to resist him”. I prayed silently in my
mind.
Austin moved his face towards my left ear with
his hand stroking my hairs.
“Your happiness is my priority Lizbeth. I just
want to see you smile”. Austin whispered slowly
into my ears.
“What are… you doing… to me?”. I stuttered
incoherently.
“I am only trying to make you mine”. Austin
said softly.
“You are going to make fall shamelessly at this
rate”. I said helplessly.
“Is that not the plan?”. Austin said laughing.
He let go of me and sat on one of the couches.
I just stood fixated on one spot. I knew I wasn’t
myself at that moment. I was legit turned on. I
was just too embarrassed to do anything or
think of any other thing.
Don’t blame, I can’t even remember the last time
my husband made me feel this way.
“So, do you like the house”. Austin asked.
I couldn’t make any sense of his question. I was
lost in thought.
Austin stared at me for a while as though
contemplating his next choice of action. After a
while, he said;
“You leave me no other choice Lizbeth”.
He moved fiercely to where I was standing and
grabbed me to himself.
My heart stopped beating again.
“God please help me”. I prayed silently.
Austin planted a kiss on my mouth. At first, I
didn’t respond to it but the intensity of his touch
left me no choice but to return his energy.
Before you can say Jack, we were already pants
down on the couch.
I knew everything was happening so fast but I
didn’t want it to stop. My conscience kept
calling me a cheat since I wasn’t divorced yet
but who cares?.
I allowed myself to live in the moment and
enjoyed the gentleness of Austin’s touch.
He was nothing like my husband. He was gentle
till the very end.
For the second time in my life, I reached an
0rg@zm.
We both fell asleep cuddled up on the floor.
