Not once did she look back or bother to listen to whatever he has to say next as she kept rushing out with quick steps. All she could think about was getting as far away from him as possible.
Aria has been scarred for life!Fifteen minutes down the road and outside the building, she was seen waving down a taxi to get her home. It was already 7:30am and the sun was yet to crawl out of its hiding place giving her a chance to get home before her nosy neighbours does.Once she was seated at the back seat of the taxi, and even told the driver where she was going. She just leaned back against the side window not willing her mind to dwell on anything else.The last thing she remembered was Lizzy begging her to stay a little longer with her at the bar last night and nothing else. It was as if a thick dark fog was hovering around in her head and clouding her memory from peeping through.** "What are you doing here?" "Can I come in?" Frank asked with a puff of breath. Aria only scoffed at his audacity. "Can you come in you say?_how did you even find me?" "Please! Just hear me out" he begged and took an inch closer and causing her to back away from him in fright. Aria could barely stand the man presence not to mention having him another inches closer. Her decision to unlock her front door was a bad one she regretted every bit of it. "If you are here to talk about what happened between us then just go away. I just want to forget it ever happened so please spare me the details" She was about to close the door at his face before he reached out and stopped her half way. "No_wait please! Just give me some few minute. That's all I need" She was momentarily lost in her own t
**Aria stood at her doorway with arms akimbo while staring back at a smiling Lizzy who seemed completely clueless about how betrayed and hurt her friend could be feeling. Lizzy reached out and pulled Aria into a bear hug and just kept holding her. She pulled back after a while and scanned her face over with careful eyes. "Oh my God Ari. Are you Okay?" Aria said nothing in reply. She still couldn't understand why Lizzy was acting as though she was worried about her when she could have done all that last night and kept her from falling prey the previous night. "Say something girl!" Lizzy had shook her over the shoulders. "What do you want me to say?" Aria had snapped angrily at her friend and even broken free from her hold. Lizzy was shocked at her reaction and decided to ask why she could be act
#Flashback to what happened# **"Look who we have here?" Frank had turned to raise a brow at his friend Kelvin who was squeaking like a little girl at the sight of another girl. He watched in confusion as his friend hugged and picked the new lady off the floor effortlessly before kissing her across the cheek. Frank sure as hell hoped Kelvin wasn't catching feeling with some club stripper girl because there was no way he'd be separating any fight tonight and much less over a girl who doesn't give a fuck about. "Where did you spring out from love"Kelvin looked excited as he took the new girl by the hand and squeezed gently at it. Frank couldn't even look at her face. Kelvin was standing in the way and he couldn't look past his broad shoulders. "I would say same to you Kel but how goo
**With his hands holding on to her face gently, he urged her to look at him. prying her eyes open_Aria could barely keep it focus when she looked up at him. "Are you sure about this? Because it might not end here" His voice was husky as he whispered those words at her. Aria only gave a shrug in reply. Tilting her head a bit to the side to enable him access, he attached his warm lips against her soft and anticipating ones. Aria didn't respond at first because she was clueless on what to do next. She just stood there with her eyes close and kept enjoying the warmth her lips have been blessed with. Frank who finally realized what could be going on quickly her pinned against his car and began to devour her lips with utmost hunger. Her lips felt soft and creamy when he nimbled on it whil
**It was around 11pm when they finally arrived at Frank's house with Aria snoring peacefully with her head still thrown against the headrest.. Her seatbelt was fasten safely around her to keep her in place. Frank couldn't help but stare at her a little bit more. Her chest was kept raising and falling to a rhythm only known to her. Her mouth was slightly open with little snore erupting from it. Frank had been staring at her through the drive to his house yet he still has an unquenchable urge to stare at her a little bit more. He was so lost that he didn't realize Aria had woken up and was now staring back at him. "Where are we?" Her voice has startled him slightly as he jerk back a little. "At my place. I was contemplating on waking you up or not" She let her e
**A week had gone by so quickly and taking all the drama with it Aria was left to pick up her life where she had left off before the drunken incident. She kept doing everything in her power to avoid any form of contact with Frank as he kept trying to get involved with her in one way or the next but to no avail. She made it a point to stay buried within the four corners of her apartment just to avoid running into him when she least expected. Aria even went as far as getting a new phone number. That way she'd stop getting his messages and calls as well. After a few more weeks of isolation. She decided to look for a new job that would keep her busy as well as pay her bills as soon as possible. She'd rather focus all her energy on doing something productive than continue to sulk over what she couldn't change. Aria even got a few job re
**After manoeuvring her way through heavy traffic and crazy ass drivers who kept reminding her that, driving in Lagos was another part of life struggle she might never get used to. She finally made it to her destination.Aria was twenty five minutes late for the interview but that didnt stop her from forging ahead either as she quickly secured a spot for her vehicle in the parking lot and rushed in through the entrance while hoping for some sort of miracle to help see her through. Aria took a quick stop at the reception when she noticed the receptionist seating behind the counter with her face all covered in heavy makeup. The female receptionist has a piercing as she stared at Aria who stood in front her breathing like she has just being in the marathon. "Good morning" Aria had greeted politely still catching her breath. "Mornin
**There is nothing as terrifying as your brain getting the 'missing' signal the moment you loose something pretty valuable to you._you start to panic while imagining all the worst case scenarios that could take place especially if that something has gone missing possess the ability to either get you, your dream job or make you loose it even before you got started. Now, this was the exact case scenario Aria has found herself right from the moment she found out her credentials has gone missing. Having been given the chance to participate in the job interview in the first place was a sheer act of grace but not without the promise of turning in her papers early the next morning. While she was still outside contemplating on what next to do. She was lucky to have been met by one of their staffs who was willing to attest to the fact that she was indeed speaking the truth about he
