shadow of love episode 19

That night, after a long and powerful round of sex, I cuddled in Tobe's arms while he drew lines on my back.

Tobe: Baby?

Me: Hm?

Tobe: Do you trust me?

Me: Of course.

I sat up and my breasts stared at him with swollen tips.

Me: Why do you ask?

Tobe: Nothing actually. I just wanted to be sure we're in this together. I mean, look at you, you're getting hotter and more beautiful everyday and I'm scared someone might take you away from me.

I hugged him warmly and licked his earlobe.

Me: Nobody, I repeat, nobody will ever have me except you. I love you so much that I can't even look at another man the way I look at you.

I felt his di'ck jerk and I withdrew from him.

Tobe: Promise?

Me: I promise.

Tobe: And about Sunday, I won't be able to make it.

The smile on my face disappeared immediately. I stood up and went into the bathroom. I sat down in the jacuzzi and let the water comfort me. The door opened and he walked in.

Tobe: Baby.

He sat down where I placed my head

Tobe: I got a text that I have a quiz on Monday. This is my final year baby and I need all the concentrations I can get. You know you'll be there to distract me if I decide to come over. And that roommate of yours? Baby, I....

Me: I'll join you in ten minutes. I need to shower.

I didn't wait for him to leave before I started soaping up, venting my anger and frustration on the sponge. When I was done, I got into the bath robe and left the bathroom. He was not in the room so I did my night rituals and laid on the bed. What will i tell Claire? That my boyfriend is.....

The door interrupted me and I looked up to see Tobe. I looked away immediately and closed my eyes.

Tobe: Baby are you still angry with me? Alright, I'll come if that will make you feel better.

Me: Forget it. Your quiz is more important.

He jumped on me immediately, causing me to sit up.

Tobe: I just love your understanding. I promise to make it up to you.

Me: I'll tell you what I want.

Tobe: Anything. A new car, just name it.

Me: Look at your mouth. If I request for a new car, you'll just end up borrowing money from your dad.

He slapped my shoulders playfully and I attacked, pinching him all over.

Tobe: I'm sorry.

Me: Better. So, about what I want, I....

Tobe: Wait. Was joking about the car.

Me: I know. Broke a$$.

Tobe: But I'm still your boyfriend and you love me with my broke behind.

Me: You wish. I want a new phone but definitely not an iPhone.

Tobe: Are you for real? Not an iPhone? Why?

Me: Let's say I love Samsung products a lot. So, you'll be getting me a Samsung......

Tobe: I don't know why you love being different. A lot of girls would do anything to have an iPhone.

Me: I'm Pamela. Not, a lot of girls. Case settled, I need to sleep now.

Tobe: Alright. I'll hand you the phone by Wednesday.

Me: Good for you.



************************************

Claire: What do you mean by he's not coming?

Me: He's got urgent work to do. I'll tell you what, I'm very hungry.

Claire: Whatever. Get a real guy who sticks to his words. My Eddy won't fail to keep his promises.

Me: What about Leonard?

She smirked and left for the kitchen with the groceries I bought while I went into my room.
I was about settling into the dinning to eat my eba and okro soup (made by Claire) when the door bell rang.

Me: I see some people have seen the bell finally. First time it's being used since I parked in.

Claire laughed and went to answer it. I heard their voices before they walked in. William joined me in the dinning while Leonard said his greetings and settled on a couch with Claire.

Will: Your boyfriend must be a loving one. Look how beautiful you look. I'm jealous.

Me: Silly. Please join me.

Will: No thanks. I don't want you to cry.

I smiled and continued with my meal while he kept the conversation alive. Claire and Leonard stole into her room while we giggled at their naughtiness. I did the dishes and came back to join William who had migrated to the sitting room.

Me: You're single huh?

Will: Yes. Single and ready to mingle.

Me: Wow. Why not hook up with one of my friends? Vanessa would be good for you.

He smiled and held my hand.

Will: What if I want someone else?

Me: Then you tell me her name, I'll arrange her for you ASAP.

He leaned into me and kissed my neck which made me shudder. I pulled back but he kept coming.
I had to hold out my hands in front of me to make him pause.
He looked at my hands and pushed them down.

Will: I'm sorry Pamela. That's how crazy I get sometimes.

I heaved a sigh

Me: You scared me William. I thought you.....

Will: Yes. I wanted to kiss you because I'm crazy about you.

My eyes widened in shock.

Will: I want you and I can't face the fact that you're with someone else. I love you Pamela and I'm glad I've said this so it'll leave my chest. Take care.

I opened my mouth to speak but they just remained open while I watched him leave. When I finally got hold of myself, I ran into my room and began to dial his number. If not for anything, i just want him to know that I won't run away from him because I've got a boyfriend but no, he refused to pick my call so I dropped him a message.

"I'm going to give you three days to come back to my apartment, sit on that sane couch and let me give you a response. just three days and your time starts now."

I guessed he would be laughing after reading my message or maybe try to call me so I promised I won't pick his call until he does what I ask him to do.

I dropped my phone and left for the kitchen, hearing moans and grunts coming from Claire's room.
