Anthony approached his sitting room door and pulled it open, and he saw Lerisa standing there, looking beautiful in her brown gown.The gown hid all her shape and her figure that Anthony had seen the previous morning at her home when he went to visit her family to know if she was alright.Lerisa smiled sweetly at Anthony, unable to explain what had brought her to his house instead of just sending her regards through his mother.She smiled at Anthony again and greeted him, "Good morning, Anthony.""Good afternoon, Lerisa. Why are you here?" Anthony asked, staring intently at her face and wondering why she looked so happy, unlike the previous night and days when she had a sad look on her face. Her face was also red like a tomato then."I came to see you and to apologize for leaving your birthday celebration early yesterday. I wasn't myself, so I had to go home and rest," Lerisa said, and Anthony made way for her to come into his sitting room.He asked her, "Did my mother tell you anythin

Remy looked at Anthony and responded, "There's nothing to be sorry about."Remy was wearing a white top and blue jean shorts, while Anthony was wearing a yellow long-sleeve shirt and black pants.Remy remembered the young lady that he admired so much, and he remembered Ben said her name was Lerisa. And she was also jealous of seeing Anthony with Clara.Remy then asked Anthony, "How about Lerisa? I saw her yesterday at your birthday celebration. Although, she caught Clara or April... whatever her name is. Lerisa caught us kissing yesterday morning, and I want to apologize to her. I was embarrassed to see Lerisa at your birthday. Where does she live? Can I have her mobile contact from you, as I really do like her and I want to marry her?" Remy admitted, looking at Anthony's face.Anthony frowned and replied, "You cannot date Lerisa.""Why?" Remy asked explicitly, "Why? Are you involved with Lerisa?" Anthony glared at Remy. He asked angrily, "What do you mean by that? She's only like a si

Anthony arrived home that evening, and he couldn't stop thinking about whether Lerisa truly liked him or not. He sighed and made his way into the mansion, shortly after parking his car in their garage.Mrs. Beatrice wasn't happy with how Anthony had rejected Lerisa. She decided not to ask Anthony anything related to Lerisa again, accepting in her mind, "Maybe, Anthony and Lerisa weren't meant to be."Anthony walked into the living room and met his parents seated in the dining room. He greeted them, "Good evening, Mom, and Dad," and walked towards the dining room to join them for dinner.Mr. Joshua had a calmer expression, while his wife still wasn't happy with how Anthony had reacted earlier. She frowned, remembering that Lerisa looked so unhappy before she left their house in the afternoon.Anthony pulled out a dinner chair and sat down, while Sandra served them soup and locally made fufu to swallow as their supper.Anthony didn't speak a word, so he washed his hands in the bowl of wa

Benita was always the center of attraction and got a lot of admirers on campus, so that did not give Anthony the privilege to court her.Anthony liked Benita's shape and how sexy and curvy her hips were. Furthermore, he knew that most people usually think that all handsome guys and beautiful ladies in college were already in a relationship.Anthony thought the same about Benita, the reason he decided not to chase after her then. He still likes her now, so he quickly read her chat, "Hey, Anthony! What's up?"Benita had dropped the message not quite long ago, about 30 minutes ago.Anthony quickly replied, "I am fine."Anthony saw that Benita was online and still typing.He became curious to chat with her since he was now single and ready to mingle.Anthony loves hot-looking, fair-complexioned ladies, as that was his type.Another chat popped up from Benita, she said, "I'm in town today, so I decided to visit you in your company. It's been a long time since we have seen each other, Anthon

"Hello, Lerisa," Anthony's deep voice fanned Lerisa's ear.It was already nighttime, almost 10 p.m., and Lerisa wondered what had taken Anthony so long to call her back."Hi, good evening," Lerisa sounded somber, and as usual, Anthony noticed and asked her, "What's wrong?""Nothing. I am fine, sir. Good evening," Lerisa quickly greeted Anthony."Sir, hahaha. What has come over you, Lerisa? Haven't I warned you to stop calling me sir? When would you ever obey that?" Anthony asked, not sounding annoyed as he was in a good mood."I am sorry, but I am not comfortable calling you by your name," Lerisa nervously said."I know that you aren't comfortable speaking with me on the phone either. What's wrong with you? Are you angry with me because my parents were suggesting that we should get married? Don't mind them," Anthony said, but Lerisa was quiet."Hello, are you there?" Anthony asked, and Lerisa replied, "Yeah, I am listening. I said I cannot call you by your name. We are no longer young,
