CHAPTER TEN
The next few weeks passed blissfully. She loved showing clients the property. The time spent waiting between appointments for clients was tediously boring but she passed the hours as best as she could. She had already worked her way through the ‘library’ of romance novels that had been left behind by guests. Suhaira thought it was such a pity that she wasn’t allowed to use the facilities at the resort, as those privileges were reserved for management only. Although she hadn’t swum since school, she would have loved to take a dip in the sparkling pool in the evenings. Suhaira made a mental note to wait a while and pluck up the courage to ask Chief Al for permission. After I make a few more sales, maybe.
Early one morning, the phone in her unit woke her with its incessant ringing. It was Kabir the manager. “It’s the boss, Suhaira. He is flying down with some guests today.”
She tried to blink away

That night, the heat was particularly oppressive in her airless room. So when there was a knock at her door at around midnight, she was still wide awake.“Who is it?” she called out.“It’s Zahir.”She belatedly recognized his voice, “What do you want?”“The boss wants to see you?”Beth had told her she was to be on call at all hours, but this was ridiculous! She scrambled out of bed and groped for the switch of the single overhead bulb.“He is waiting for you in the show apartment,” Zahir said, as Suhaira came out after hastily putting on some clothes.As she walked to the apartment, she wondered what was going on. What on earth did Chief Al need at this time? The front door was open and she could hear the sound of voices coming from the balcon

Love Dilemma CHAPTER ONE
“So that’s why I can only afford to keep just one of you employed at Regal Corporation,” Mr Vance used a big cotton handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his brow and adjusted his glasses. Suhaira turned to look at Jack in horror, as the implications of this bombshell from the boss sank in, but Jack was staring down at the table. Just ten minutes ago she had been giggling at Jack’s jokes. Now she felt as if her world was crumbling. She started to gather up her papers but Mr Vance motioned for her to remain seated.“There is some good news,” he said, “a huge housing development company, Bazaar Abodes, are giving us a chance to pitch a proposal to them to be their sole selling agents.” He glanced at them both. “I will decide on which one of you stays based on how many units you can sell in this development. Sorry it’s come to this. You have both been assets to the company. But now times are hard.” Suhaira stood up to follow Mr Vance out of the boardroom. “Suhaira, hold on,” Jack grasped

Dodoma, 3 Years Earlier“Suhaira, you have to calm down, you look great!” Zafeera spoke with great authority from the bed. Suhaira looked at her best friend with some exasperation. Newly engaged, she didn’t have to worry. After all, her marriage to Irfan had been on the cards for years. “I have to look good. David is probably used to seeing really hot girls in London.” Suhaira smoothed her blue top, remembering that blue was David’s favourite colour on her. She peered into the mirror for the umpteenth time and pushed her glasses up onto her nose as she surveyed her reflection critically. “You’re sure I look great?” she asked Zafeera, who rolled her eyes theatrically. “My Suhaira. You look great as always. You really need to relax!” For some reason, Zafeera didn’t seem too excited. “Do you imagine that he has changed?” Suhaira asked, picking up the black leather watch she had bought David as a welcome-back present. It had cost her a bomb, but she didn’t care. I’m going to be seei
Love Dilemma CHAPTER THREE
“No way!” Zafeera looked at Suhaira with her jaw wide open. “Out of all the people in the world he is your new client!” Her brow furrowed. “Do you think it’s just a coincidence that David came to your firm or was it planned?” Suhaira stared at her. “That never occurred to me! What would he want with me after all this time? No, it has to be a coincidence.”For a moment, Suhaira considered the possibility. Maybe he was hoping he could mess up my life once again. Because he sure as hell isn’t interested in me; He proved that three years back. No way am I going to let him destroy me again. “So how does he look?”“Actually he looks really good,” Suhaira admitted reluctantly, embarrassed that she had even paid attention.“Better looking than Jack?” she asked slyly. Zafeera had been raving about Jack ever since she had caught a glimpse of him once at her office and was convinced Suhaira needed to stop being so cautious about relationships. She had been urging Suhaira to mingle and date for

Black and white!” Ruby was firm, “It will give you a stylish and elegant atmosphere.” “But our company colours are green and yellow,” Suhaira protested, already anticipating Mr Vance’s objections to the decor at their launch. For all she knew, he could use that as an excuse to sack her. Their stylish Corporate Party Planner shuddered dramatically. “I’ll just pretend I didn’t hear that,” she said, “Now let’s talk about food. I’m thinking canapes with a Tanzanian twist.” Ruby kept Suhaira on her toes the whole morning as they went through each detail for the Bazaar Abodes launch. Somehow, Suhaira had found herself landed with the entire responsibility of running and organizing the launch party, which had meant an overload of work. Suhaira welcomed the distraction as it kept her mind off David and Jack. It was almost lunchtime when Ruby finally closed her striped file with a bang. “I think we have made good progress,” she said, “Now let’s go and reward ourselves with an expensive l
Love Dilemma CHAPTER FIVE
“Suhaira, you look gorgeous! But then, you always do.”“Thanks, David,” Suhaira replied, feigning nonchalance as she stepped into David’s Rolls Royce and settled on the leather seat. He had some soft music on the radio. Suhaira could not believe she was actually going through with this. Another meeting with David was the last thing she needed to cap off an already complicated week. But she had promised him, and she knew she had to put this chapter to bed. “All set?” he grinned as he shut the door behind her. As he did, another tantalising whiff of his fragrance dealt a blow to her forced calm. She put on a pair of sunglasses and looked ahead, avoiding his gaze. David had texted her the night before to say that he was taking her to a special place, but he wouldn’t tell her where. This was supposed to be a surprise but she had a very good idea where they were headed. Sure enough, they cruised down turned off at the Tanzania Wildlife Service signboard into the Dodoma National Park.
