The elevator clicked open and she drifted out of her thoughts staring at the brown headed figure that stood before her. She stared too long that he began to wonder if she would recognize him yet. His smile finally slipped through as she recognized him.
Austin!
"Oh my goodness! What are you doing here?" She gaped at him in surprise.
"I came to see Daniel on a project discussion. You shouldn't be so surprised to see me because I will be coming here umpteen times." He smiled genuinely at her and she nodded in understanding.
He said, "What happened? You look disturbed."
She sighed and said, "You could say that but frustrated could also be the word."
He frowned. "Did you two have a misunderstanding?"
"Huh, what?" She was driven out of trance again.

*** Moping and sulking was all he could do as he watched Henry dance with his wife. Music played unceasingly allowing the horny adults dance energetically.For all the times he had been there, he never knew he would one day come here and mope around. Not like he didn't have a wife that he came with. He poured the drink into his throat and swallowed noisily. Daniel tried to remember the reason he allowed this to happen. Oh yes, he lost a fucking dare to that bastard. He drank another glass of vodka in one gulp and asked for a bottle."Daniel Thompson why the hell is Henry all over your wife?!" Austin asked right after taking the bottle away from the bartender faster than Daniel could."I didn't feel like dancing and Henry offered to keep her company." He answered shrugging as if he was okay."And you came over here to drink?" Austin scoffed

***"Gosh! What in heaven's name was I thinking?!" He scolded himself, taking some painkillers to ease his ache.Staring back at her, he discovered that she was still very much fast asleep. He had achieved something yesterday. Since God knows when had he dreamt of kissing those lips of hers, wanting to know what they taste like. Still, he couldn't help but feel like he took advantage of her.She stirred in her sleep finally. The room was bathed in morning light. Squinting her eyes, she let out a yawn then, sat up."Here," she immediately turned to him. "Doesn't your head hurt?" She nodded and took the drug along with the water he gave to her. "You'll feel better in a while.""Thank you Daniel." He nodded walking to place the cup on the night stand. "Em....When did we get home?""When? We've been home since 11pm yesterday,"

***She folded her clothes and placed them on the bed. Presently, she was on a house coat with a swim wear within, she was about to take a swim. Work these days had been hectic. Coupled with her husband not having time for her, she thought she could do what she formally loved doing, swimming.She opened the direct door that led downstairs to the pool. The pool was just besides their room with only a stair connecting them. They seem to be at advantage because they were closest to the pool and so, they get to spend more time in it than the rest of the family.She dipped herself carefully into the pool and the only sound she heard were the ripples of the water and her moan of relaxation.___(Yesterday, 3pm)"Hey handsome," A manicured hand was placed on his shoulders feeling his muscles before the figure came to sit before him.

***(Flash back)Her black long hair cascading down her back was to her liking. She smelled rich and her radiant beauty was pronounced for her aged, similar to Daniel's if possible. The man who sat opposite her puffed out smoke in reply as she gave out her plan."Burn it down, make sure it is to the ground." She told him "I want to make her realise the consequences of what she's doing, She'll regret all she has ever done against my son!" "No problem, I will do as I've been told, never to disappoint." (Ends)___Clarissa did turn around and he smirked in amusement. "You in a swimming suit is quite the view.""Is anything wrong with it?""Nope, it's just that you look...."

***She tucked herself in bed right after checking the time. He wasn't back yet again, she was restless. Putting on the light once again, she sat up and combed her hair in frustration. She had tried calling him only to find out he had left his phone on the night stand. She didn't know why she was expecting more after yesterday. Maybe because she wanted more of those moments with him, she wanted much more. She pulled the covers over her body once again as she laid down to sleep.She wondered where he had gone to and making her worried wasn't the best option. She didn't act too well when she was worried. He was moody when he came back for supper and asked for some time alone and then, this?She jerked up when she heard the door click followed by shattering of -'It couldn't be one of her favorite Italian expensive vase, please it shouldn't be.' she cried inwardly
