"Are you alright?" Gregory asked while taking his seat."Yes, I'm fine Sir." Rosie replied, flashing a smile. She dug into her food seeing that Gregory was already eating.A single taste of her meal had a moan escape from her lips. She immediately lowered her face in embarrassment while Gregory chuckled sweetly. He couldn't remember the last time he met such a naive girl."I'm glad you love it. You will enjoy it better if it's home made. I make a much better Fajita though." Greg boasted subtly."No way! You cook?" She asked surprised."Not always though. Just when I'm in the mood." He replied."So, tell me about Work Roseline. How long have you been working at Zed?""For almost a Year now. I'm actually an Intern and I'll be through in a month." She replied."So, what's next for you after internship?""Ummm, I'll love to be retained by Zed agency, but I really don't think it's possible because they don't retain Interns." Said Rosie."So, you want to work in an ad agency, wow! Just keep
"Hello mama" Rosie called out as she opened the door to her mum's apartment."Is that my pumpkin?" Mrs. Bainer shouted from the Kitchen."Flesh and Blood." She replied, making her way to the kitchen to give her mother a hug."What's happening, you're so lean" Mrs. Bainer complained looking at her daughter. "You haven't been eating well, have you?""Oh Mama, please. I've been eating well enough. You don't have to worry about me." Rosie replied planting a soft kiss on her mother's right cheek.Evelyn Bainer stared at her daughter for a while. Obviously she had so much she wanted to say but she decided against it."Annie!" She called as she took Rosie back to the sitting room.""Annie is home?" Rosie asked happily."Yes, she's up in her room getting set for her date. Her boyfriend is picking her up soon.""Mum!!" Annie called as she walked in on them and overheard her mum."What? I was only giving her an answer to a question. Why are you giving me that look?" Evelyn asked innocently."Yo
"Hello."Rosie whispered into her phone. Trying not to be loud to prevent her mother from overhearing her conversation."Hello, Miss Bainer. This is Gregory. Am I calling at a wrong time?" Greg spoke from the other end of the line."I know who you are sir. No, this is not a bad time. But I hope everything is fine sir?""Absolutely. I have something important to discuss with you. Something related to you getting a job. Are you free this evening? Would you mind meeting at the Coastal-Inn?""What time sir, I'll be there." Rosie replied without thinking twice."Alright, 4:00pm will be great." Greg replied"I'll be right there. Thank you so much."I'll see you then. Bye for now Miss Bainer.""Bye Sir."The line went dead. Rosie couldn't believe her ears. This has got to be one of the best news ever. Even though he didn't say she's gotten a job, she knew something good would definitely come out of the meeting."You have a work related matter on a Saturday? Pumpkin you're seriously over work
"Please sit, and what can I offer you?" Gregory asked looking at Rosie, fully aware that she was captivated by the beauty of his home. " Your home is so beautiful." She said, still standing, looking around."Thank you." He replied"Is that your wife? She asked pointing at a picture placed on a table console beside the wall close to the stairs. Gregory replied with a nod."She's gorgeous." She continued looking at other pictures of Greg's wife on the wall. She crossed over the room, sat down in a single cushion and knowingly crossed her legs revealing a little portion of her perfect thigh that will leave you imagining what the covered parts would look like."That she is." He replied taking a seat adjacent hers. "Would you care for some wine, there are some good bottles of wine at the bar over there." He said."What was she like?" Rosie continued.He looked around trying to identify who she was referring to. "Who?" Greg asked. His eyes followed Rosie's gaze to his wife's picture on the
"Hello everyone, I'm home!" Rosie called closing the door behind her."Welcome home Sis." Annie greeted pausing the movie she was watching. She went over and hugged her sister."Mmm, munchin, you're back already." Rosie asked returning the hug."Yep. Came back a while ago." She replied going back to her seat. "Mum's not home yet." She told Rosie who was darting her eyes around in search of their mother."Did she call to say she'd be late?" Rosie asked again seating down on one of the cushion."She texted." Came the reply. "You look so beautiful by the way. You went on a formal date? "She asked judging from Rosie's outfit.Rosie started removing her shoes. "A business date actually. I got a job today. Something stylish with a very good pay. I feel like I'm on top of the world already girl." She broke the news excitedly."Omg!! Congratulations sis. Gosh, I'm so happy for you right now. How, how were you able to do that? Owen linked you up finally?" Annie asked excited."Not Owen please.
"What is wrong with you? I knew allowing you visit your mum last weekend was never a good idea. Obviously that younger sister of yours is a big problem and a bad influence on you. Was she the reason you didn't call all through the weekend?" Owen asked Rosie when she walked into his office. He was used to her constant calls and bugging. Oddly, she didn't as much as place a call through to him all through the weekend and that was unlike her. Getting to the office that morning. He asked about her and was told she was at her cubicle. So he immediately sent for her."Allowing me? So, you are now give permission before I can see my family, is that what you're implying?" Rosie shot at him."Rosie please, you know what I mean.""Well, good morning to you too." Rosie said, taking a seat. "Did you send for me just to shout? And whatever do you mean by you allowed me visit my mother, are you alright?" She asked.Owen who was seated initially, stood up with shock written all over his face. He star
Stepping into the mighty building housing Global Link agency, Rosie felt nothing but gratitude in her heart. She was indeed grateful to Gregory for helping her secure such a great place of work. It was a high rise and well appointed building with each floor buzzing with activity.She had been there the previous week for the job interview. Which went well, a confirmation was the mail she got from them a few days later to resume work. She made her way to the reception. Having been there before, she knew her way around to some extent. Zed was indeed a small place compared to Global Link. She crossed the walkway to the receptionist."Good morning ma'am." She greeted the gorgeous looking lady behind the counter and got a warm smile and a greeting as well. "I'm Miss Bainer, one of the new employees.""Ah yes, you're welcome." She said. "Please take a seat over there." She pointed to a row of seat towards her right that were isolated from others.Rosie quickly strode towards the direction
"I'm not going to any masseuse. I won't be comfortable watching someone else rub my skin. Call me old fashioned if you like." She said."Funny, how I felt releived hearing you say that. I've really missed you Roe. It feels like years since the last time I saw you." He told her."Same here. Let's see soon." Rosie suggested."Say now?" Gregory asked."What? No, of course not. I'm so exhausted. I need to rest my feet amongst other things." She replied. "Let's see this weekend Greg. Your place ?" She asked."You should call me Greg more often. I love the way it sound when you do." He said. "Though I was thinking of having a dinner with nature at the Coastal-Inn. " He added."Mmmmm, that sounds so tempting. Maybe we could do it on our next visit there. Right now, all I can think of is the meal prep you owe me which you're definitely going to pay Gre......g." She stressed."Fine," he said, now laughing. "Let's have dinner at my place. I'll be your personal Chef this weekend and I promise yo
