Favor For A Favor Novels & Stories

In fact, Favour had just spoiled her attempt to forget him for a while. Here they were, seated on the balcony of her sister's apartment, overlooking the Brisbane Water at Gosford, idly watching the boats sailing out from the yacht club, feeling pleasantly replete from a fine lunch, during which Favour had raved about her wonderful new boyfriend, Leonard. Why couldn't she just be happy with her own personal life instead of attacking Jasmine's? "This guy has been a friend of Leonard's since school days. Now that tells you he values the people he likes. He's not a user and a dumper," Favour ran on, relentlessly intent on persuasion.

"Penelope, I'm sorry… I'm so, so sorry…" Mom buried her face in the crook of my neck, crying her heart out, her voice filled with regret and despair. "I was wrong. It's all my fault! Wake up and look at me, please! You can yell at me or hit me—I'll take it all. Just don't scare me like this, please! "Wake up. We'll go home, and I'll make you all your favorite food. I'll buy you everything you like. I'll stop playing favorites; I'll never neglect you again…"

This was only the beginning. It wasn’t just about the clean uniform. It was about the favor. The favor had just been returned. With interest. And it was about to get worse for her and her friends.

Eeeekk! "Umm...ladies, thank all of you for your help this evening," I looked over the group around me. "Having the room divided over Felix's predations wouldn't have done any of us much good. I'm glad this morning's encounter was brought to light. Thank you all." If someone does you a favor, thank them.

But still, the disappointment doesn't entirely erase the warmth his earlier words brought me. “A favor?” I echo, trying to keep my voice neutral. Karl nods. “Yes. A favor. A small one.” Great, I think to myself. Of course there’s a catch to Karl’s kindness. When is there ever not a catch?

“Payback.” “Uh?” She crosses her arms to her chest and speaks neatly. “I’m here to pay you back for making use of your time the last time we were together.” “I’m not following.” She stares me down as if I’m dumb and maybe I am. Since when do people get a payback for spending time with another person? “You did me a favor,” she starts, one word leaving her mouth at a time as if she’s speaking to a child. “And I don’t like owing others. That’s why I’m here to pay you back for that favor. Then we can go on with our lives.”

"Come on, you need to swallow your pride. Look, this is just a small favor I am asking from you. I helped you a lot of times already in the past so please, consider helping me as well!" With his pleading eyes, I know that he is not taking no for an answer. He's got a point though, he has been helping me out since I was a kid so I need to return the favor even if I need to swallow my pride. "First of all, thank you for everything you have done for me, Alpha Steven. I won't be tired to say how grateful I am to meet someone like you. And now that you are asking me a favor, I will do it because you are one of the important people in my life!"

"Oh, listen, can you do me a favour?" I raise an eyebrow and bring my hand to my chin, pretending to think. In reality, for all I know, Lenox he's probably going to ask for something outrageous, so I'll most likely say no. He clears his throat, implying that I'm taking too much time, so I grin, "Depends on what kind of favour and what I get in return." Lenox shrugs his shoulders. "I'll pay with pleasure. Eat you out without stabbing you; how does that sound?"

However, I could not afford to lose my temper so soon after the surgery, and I could not be bothered to argue with her, either. “You’re the one who’s overthinking. I’m just too tired today. If it isn’t convenient for you, I’ll just call a cab.” I sighed again. If my surgery scar was not still sore, and if my doctor had not advised me to take it easy, I never would have asked her for a lift. When I gave up, though, Nia quickly compromised. “Fine, I’ll send you home. But don’t push your limits any more than that!” I nodded without a word.

favour mouthed and she looked sideways but avoided eye contact with Matt. "And how should l thank you?". "Oh that's easy, you can thank me by giving me something that measures up to the amount of you know... Smiles and Laughter". Favour remained quiet and seem to be thinking about his words. "If I'm to think about it or measure the smiles and laughter I have felt by talking to you then I don't know what I can give in return for that." "Really?". Matt asked with a raised brow. "Yes." "Okay, how about I make a suggestion?".
