“Samantha!”Alison growled in annoyance as she scribbled on her draft.Samantha noticing her mother’s glare gave her her signature cheeky smile, her eyes dancing in pure mischief.“Baby! What have you done?” Alison came forward to her work desk surveying the degree of the mess. She gave Sam her toughest glare but the little girl’s expression was indifferent.She noticed the tug at her gown looking down Samantha looked at her Mom in a needy manner.“Mom, Sam is hungry,” she said rubbing her tummy.Her anger reduced a whole lot as she could not punish Sam for ruining her work. Samantha was not aware she ruined mommy’s work.“Come.” She ordered softly and Samantha followed. Entering the kitchen she collected the bread slices and rubbed a generous amount of peanut butter on them.Pouring Sam’s favorite apple juice in her juice cup, she placed her on her desk and was about to feed her.“Stop Mommy, Sam would feed herself.” She said proudly.“Don’t make a mess Okay?” Alison said and went to

Opposite Alison was the man she bumped into yesterday. He requested to sit at the vacant seat opposite her and she allowed him.He wore a simple T-shirt and light jean trousers. His hair hung low and seemed heavy, it looked damped but towel dried.He looked dashing nonetheless with the light enhancing his grey irises.Now she thought about it she was reconsidering her decision to let him sit here.For one, it was oddly quiet and the tension was very much thick. She wanted a quiet and relaxing dinner, not this.Secondly, she was afraid to look at him he might think she was swooned by his beauty like the waitress writing her number on the napkin she handed to him.She stared at the food in front of her, and for some unknown reason, her appetite went out the window.Her spoon roamed the plates thoughtfully."That is getting cold" His voice broke through her.Startled a bit, she sat upright and gave him a quick awkward smile.She ate her food slowly, "Tell me do I make you uncomfortable?"

His breath hitched as he stared into her eyes, even if he tries he wasn't sure he could look away. Taking a sniff, he loves the way she smells like fresh spring flowers. Her presence carried vibrance and left him exhilarated. "And drop the formal tone. Just call me by my name." He said coolly. "This is business. We are bound to be formal and I don't appreciate the proximity, Mr. Leonardo." Her heart was beating faster than normal. "Leonardo not Mr. Leonardo. I promise you that I won't leave you easily if you call me Mr. title. You are still my friend for a day so drop all formalities." She kept quiet and she stepped backward she saw his smirk and smacked herself in her head seven times. Now he thinks she was affected by him, "You should blush more. It suits you," He admitted causing her to be thoroughly flushed. Leaving, they walked to the door Alison saw her driver and went to meet him. "Mr. you can take the car by to the hotel. I don't need your services now." "Also, go for

"Tying your hair into a bun won't stop me." he said matter-of-factly. "Yes I agree but I can. Stop teasing me Mr. Adriano, I have no time for such silly games, I kept myself reserved earlier because Mr. Johnson appeared. I would have given you an earful," She retorted crossing her elbow. He loved how fiery she can be. "What if he caught us if such compromising position? What would people say? And given that you are famous or popular. So I have heard, to what degree I am not aware of. I would not want to be entangled in your complicated life with my name tainted with tabloids gossips" Her voice came out very worried. She had all to lose but he had nothing. He came closer despite all her ranting, "Don't worry about proximity Alison. I won't cross my boundary until I make you mine completely." he thought to himself staring at her in an indecipherable way. She moved her body backward until it was at the end of the bank close to water. Mr. Johnson stood from afar making a phone call,

Removing her little luggage from the car, Alison strolled her way into Gran Karen's gate after pressing the security code on the electronic gate. Wanting to surprise both her grandmother and Sam she came two hours earlier than expected boarding a plane, on her other hand was a plastic bag containing Samantha's favorite caramel chocolate, she also brought some airport souvenirs.Finally, reaching the door she dropped her bags and rang the doorbell.Waiting, she thought back at her exclusive night with Leonardo, it brought goosebumps afresh on her naked arms. For a moment she wanted to be engulfed back into his jacket, inhaling his sweet smell embedded in the jacket. She wanted his hands back on hers and that reassuring smile he throws at regular intervals.Did he forget she was another plain woman? She was nothing compared to the women he might have dated. He scared her by thinking he might have feelings other than friendship for her. She was not sure of how to accommodate that.Who ta
