Anniella's POV
Thank you officer. I silently said in my head. He's a God sent, relieving me of what Drey wanted me to give him. It's not like I ain't happy giving it to him, the fact is I'll gladly love it to give it with all my heart.
The thing is I'm shy and I don't trust Drey to keep it less intense. These things are new to me and Drey loves it. I don't trust him not to go further than why he asked of me. I was born and bred in a religious home where I was taught to abstain from lust filled desires which only corrupt our soul and drives us away from God.
I uphold my values very much, knowing it's the only thing that sets me apart from others. Drey is religious and he's a full bloodied man who in his past relationships had these things at his beck and call. What if he's tired of us just kissing and wants something more, you see? I also ain't ready to give the more till I'm married and before he and I quit, I had a feeling he will soon be fed up not getting more from me.
"Babe you have a call." Drey shook my entwined fingers to gain my attention. I must have been lost in my thoughts if I didn't hear my loud ringtone going off.
He looked at me as if I was a puzzle he was trying so hard to solve, "are you okay? You've been quiet since that officer interrupted us."
"I'm fine b, lemme call my mother back." I smiled at him though there was this lump in my throat. An uneasy feeling suddenly is washing over me. What if Drey is getting fed up, that's why he's asking for an out of breath kiss knowing I won't give it to him and maybe get a valid reason to quit once again. I know we just got back together but I can't read his mind you know. What if?
"My baby girl!" My mothers voice rang over the line after the first ring, "how you doing ?"
"I'm fine mama, you?"
"I'm good too but there's a little issue I want you to clear."
Issue? Want me to clear? "What mama?" I am instantly alarmed her tone, is not that of excitement. There's worry laced in it, could it be something bad?
"Your father and I have been told you and that boy who broke your heart are back together," I unconsciously glanced at Drey who already had his eyes on me. We were already at the airport.
"Yes mama we're back together everything was a misunderstanding. We've cleared the air."
"Are you really sure about your decision? You can tell me anything you know."
"Don't worry maa, I'm very certain on my decision. Andre isn't how he was portrayed to be then, he isn't a cheat or a player or a manipulative liar and all that and yes, I can tell you anything that's why I'm telling you now, I love him maa and I'm more than certain on getting back together with him."
"Anniellaâ"
"Maa I'm very sure, he's the most caring man. The kind any girl would proudly take home to her parents, trust me maa."
"If you say so, where are you? We're back in home."
"Uh I'm going on a trip with Andre."
"So soon? Where?"
"Uhm he said it's a surprise. Don't worry maa I'll call you when we get there. I promise, I love you....mwah bye." My mother won't stop till she satisfied her curiosity. I don't want to keep Drey waiting so I had to hang up.
Drey thought for a while, opening his mouth and closing it. He wants to say something but doesn't know how, typical him. I rubbed his back as we got into his jet, helping him relax so he can say what's on his mind. I have a feeling it's about the conversation I had with my mother. "I think your mother doesn't like me."
Andre's POV
My fear of her mother not liking me temporarily goes away, staring at Ann's face and reaction as she took in the interior of the jet. Her eyes bulged and her mouth slightly hanging, eyes darting left and right as they fed on the view before them.
Her wow wasn't missed by my ears. I'm glad she loves the design of the jet. For me it's plain and normal, I've been using it for years now. I'm accustomed to it and everything but for her it's like a magnificent palace. "Drey this place is soâ"
"Magnificent."
Ann nodded head, agreeing to it.
"I'm glad you like it babe."
"Like is an understatement boo, I love it."
"More than me?"
"Yes!" She giggled
I rolled my eyes at her silliness and sat down, "I'm going to get you for that."
"Whatever." Ann strode to me, sitting down beside me. "What was that you said earlier?"
Way to ruin the mood b. The fears hivj went away, came rushing back. "Uhm, I think I said your mother doesn't like me."
"No boo, she likes you, don't mind our conversation earlier. She was being her, caring about my wellbeing." Ann scooter closer to me, taking my hand in hers.
"I don't think so." Her words don't do anything to wane the fear I have. If Mrs Morrison doesn't like me, who them will convince her father to grant me Anniella's hand in marriage.
"You gotta think so honey, she loves you. I know her very well, if uncle Rich and his wife love you then my parents also do, so take a chill pill and smile for me."
Ann made her pouty face again, pulling my cheeks. I smiled beside myself. The only way this fear is going to wane is me seeing her mother. "Are you parents home?"
"Yeah why?"
"Nothing just asking." I'm not just asking babe, Ghana will be our last destination for our trip. I have to get her parents to love me anyway I can.
"You sure?"
"Yeah yeah b, I'm sure." I scooped her into my arms and sat her on my lap, "you owe me love, how about you replay me now."
"How about you give me my box of snicker bars now?" Ann retorted playfully amidst blushing. I stared in awe, this girl can be bold and blush all in one.
"I call the shots here."
"Oh really? I rather call the shorts here, I can get to buy the bars but can get what you want? We all know you can't do that with someone else. Your family and mine won't be so happy to hear it when I tell them in tears." Ann grinned at me evilly. This girl has got me, I can't think of kissing someone else. It won't look good in getting her parents to like me, neither my parents or her family.
I maintained our eye contact, taking out my phone. I dialed Samantha's number, "bring in my gift." If she thinks she can get away smoothly by her words earlier. Ann is gravely mistaken. I'm not missing any chance to get those lips, no way.
Samantha walked in with a big wrapped box in hand. "Sir please your gift." Ann tried wiggling of my hold, shy to be caught in this position.
"Thank you Sam, can you please get us a big bottle of water and glasses?" I'm dehydrated from not taking in water since I woke up. It's almost afternoon.
"Sure, I'll be right back." I nod at her, giving Ann the box. She stared at it closely and brought it to her ears, shaking it. "Why don't you save your energy for my reward and open the box."
She tore open the box and boxes of snicker boxes cans calling on her, "Drey!" She squealed, eyes wide and hugged me, "thank you so much boo."
"No no, I don't want the thank you. You know what I want." I closed my eyes, pouting, waiting to feel her lips on mine. Minutes passed by without me feeling anything warm on my lips, opening my eyes, Ann sat on my laps with her hand covering her mouth, trying to stifle her laugh but failed miserably.
Her laughter rang through the entire living room and when she was down crutches her stomach tightly, "oh my God Drey you're so funny. I should have taken a picture of you, please do that again and lemme get a shot, pleeeaaaaassseeeee!"
I swear sometimes Ann is more than a little girl. She loves being loud to coax people in doing what she wants. I don't mind though like I said before before, I can do anything for Ann no matter what. She took out her phone from her shorts pocket and adjusted it in front me. I pouted and closed my eyes like before.
There were click sounds and giggles from her. I was so happy within me, I make her feeling like this and giggling like a silly little girl. She took more shots complaining the others were blurry.
"So Mrs Archamebau, if you're done here, can I get what I want it I'll double it."
"It's Miss Morrison for you. We're not married boo."
"Stop changing the subject. My patient is running thin. You know what I'm capable of if I don't feel your lips on mine." I threatened her in a stern voice.
Her eyes widen, realizing what I meant by that. Ann refused to kiss me goodnight at the party. I gave her a rough intense kiss to show her the cost of going against me. I don't intend on doing it right now cause she likes it gentle. I'm only threatening her.
I closed my eyes and pouted again. Warm lips crashed on my gentle. Good girl.
