A Groom For Two Weeks CHAPTER ONE
Ella sits across her big sister and smiles at her; "I know I've asked you several times but I guess I am not tired of asking, how do you do it?"Karin dressed in her favourite summer outfits, a pair of wide legged pants and sleeveless chiffon blouse, looks up from the proposal she was perusing at her beautiful sister. "Do what exactly Ella?"Ella sits up and place both arms on the office table separating them. "How do you live this routinous life of yours without getting bored?" Holding her sister's gaze she continues "I am worried that you'll be lonely after I move out; you won't have anyone walk into your room, make a mess of your closet and never return borrowed clothes." she smiles sheepishly "I am worried generally about your well-being because you don't have a social life."Karin drops the proposal in her hands and looks directly at her younger sister; "Ella, we've been through this before and I don't think it's fair to bring it up again. I should be the one asking why you aren'

Karin winds down her window to be sure she wasn't beginning to see things and he's actually real. She reaches out with her hand to feel him; her hand touching his fore arm. "Are you real?" she asks.The good looking man smiles, displaying some dashing white dentition. "Of course I'm real, may I know why you ask?"Karin stares on "Because you vanished when I asked someone about you; it felt weird, like I imagined you." She clears her throat. "Excuse me!" She smiles briefly, "what brings you here? Am I doing anything wrong or have I done something wrong, because I can't really remember things clearly?"The good looking man smiles briefly, "Not to me but you'd be disobeying the law if you drive home in your condition, and you'd be putting others at risk. So I'd advise that you take a cab or I could drive you home."Karin blinks twice "what did you just say? I meant the last part, you can say that again please!"The good looking man frowns "May I drive you home?"Karin removes the key fro

Karin walks towards the elevator, dressed in a mini flowing paisley green dress, dark brown belt around her tiny waist, a matching tote bag and a matching pair of low boots. She wore her hair loose for the first time since college, parted at the centre, combed neatly and tucked behind both ears. A big circle earrings and a sweetheart necklace.Feeling a little strange, she didn't bother to look around to say hello to anyone, not ready to answer anyone's questioning look at the way she's dressed.She enters the elevator and press her floor button.***Johan drops his large size onto a comfy sofa in his studio, wondering about his decision regarding his lunch date with Karin. She seem nice, original and grounded. He is not sure about her looks because of the ambiance of the environment on their first meeting but she has a nice physique; a little hippie, long limbs and he especially loved the way she walks. Does she know she naturally catwalks? She doesn't seem like someone who pays atte

Ella opens the door to her sister's room, she peeks inside and is wowed by her sister's reflection in the mirror. "Oh my word! You look breathtakingly beautiful Karin. How did you come to know all these tit bits in fashion?" She walks in and quietly shuts the door. "And it's of course my opinion." She says and roll her eyes upward before her sister could chime in. She perches by the edge of the bed, her eyes not leaving her sister for a second.She continues "When do you expect our mystery man?"Karin turns around to face her sister and smirks. "You think I look good? Give me your rating then." Taking the interest off Johan.Ella smiles to her eyes. "Not to be bias sis, I'll give you a 10. So tell me how you came to know all these tricks".Karin laughs a little. "I watched you and researced about some tips on the internet." She walks towards the bed and sits on her overstuffed stool to put on her cat's heel Hermes sling back pair of pointed shoes. "Do you think I should go casual? I'm
A Groom For Two Weeks CHAPTER FIVE
Karin walks towards the kitchen but stops short when she caught a glimpse of the dinning room.The room is dimly lit, two lighted candles at the centre of the table, and just two chairs at both ends of the dinning table.She smiles to her eyes, this man is out to impress me tonight, she thinks to herself, still smiling, "let's go see what we'll be eating tonight" she says out loud. She turns to continue her journey to the kitchen but sees Johan approaching with a bowl of white rice. He's taken off his jacket and now has a blue apron over his crisp white shirt.She steps aside to allow him gain access to the dinning room, and watch him go in, following in his wake. "What you have there smells delicious Johan! What did you cook the rice with, or could it be the aroma of the dressing that's coming off you?" She presses her hand against her flat stomach unabashedly, "I can't wait to dig in."He gently places it on the dinning table and turns around to look at her, smiling. "I hope you'll

Karin comes out of the bathroom changed. She doesn't see Yohan any where in sight and wonders what he could be up to.She decides to feed her eyes with the way his studio is arranged, not ready to go look for him. She walks towards a stack of papers on a stool and looks through them hoping she wasn't overstepping any boundary.She takes a look at the first picture and is captivated by the shot. Her eyes are transfixed on the woman in the picture, there's something about the look of the woman that enraptures you; she can't believe she could be mesmerized by another female. She smiles to herself and shakes her head a little hard, as if ridding herself of thoughts she's not ready to explore.Moving on, she flips the pictures, scrutinizing each and blown away by Johan's handiwork. The pictures are nice, like really nice but is the monochrome doing them justice? The models look beautiful, all having similar features, how would they look in colour though, their eyes and hair colour she thin
A Groom For Two Weeks CHAPTER SEVEN
Karin wakes up on her bed smiling. This has become the norm for her lately and everything felt surreal. She will be getting married in two days in a simple ceremony involving her family and Johan's closest friends Eric and Chadwick. He told her he'd be introducing her to his family when he feels it's alright to. His statement had alarm bells ringing in my head, with all manner of 'what ifs' threatening to throw me over the edge, in-fact, I almost passed out, had he not specifically calmed me to trust his instincts because that's how he relates with his half siblings.She sits up and folds her legs, today is her final fitting and she has Johan to thank for convincing her father. He had told her he wasn't going to hide anything from him, and he hopes he'd fall in love with her before their agreement ended. Left to her, she'd have married him and dropped the bomb on them during Ella's wedding. Thank goodness he has more empathy than her.Karin picks a scrunchy from the bedside drawer and

Karin pauses on recognizing the voice. She turns slowly towards the direction the voice came from and to her astonishment she sees Henrik, her to soon be brother in-law.Her eyes widen as she forces herself to smile at him. 'What is he doing here, she mentally asks herself?' She takes some steps away from the exit door so as not to obstruct others from leaving and assuming Johan is right behind her, but when she doesn't feel his presence, she turns around and finds him rooted to his spot, an unreadable look in his eyes, his hands hanging at his sides.Karin extends her right hand to him, her gaze unwavering. "Johan come let me introduce you to my sister's fiance, he won't bite." She coos to him.Johan chuckles mildly. "You can't be serious Karin dear. Besides, he can't, I'm way above his league." He looks at Henrik briefly and back at Karin. "I sincerely thought he's a friend and you won't need my input in your conversation, that's why I remained on my spot." He closes the distance be
