Be My Wifey Or Lose Your Job

She moved out to the living room and out to the lots.

George has already left for work, without a bade of goodbye to her. Cool.

She decided to go out in her car today.

She walked to the blue car and entered.

She inserted the key inside the keyhole and the engine vibrated to life.

She tapped on Tatiana Manaois music – Like You as she drove out.

You gotta get up

You gotta get up and make a move

Cause the world will never see you till you do

No, they don’t really care what you going through…

So, you gotta show baby… you gotta show the real you, you gotta give them what you got, no, don’t let them see what you not, cause you’re strong, You’re wise, you’re worth beyond a thousand reasons why, and you can’t be perfect baby, cause no one is perfect darling, oh no no no no, there’s nobody in the world… like you!

What do you do when you can’t let go… what do you say when you jumped don’t know how you feel?…. and you know nobody knows how you feel

Janelle stopped the car in front of the building and went to park her car.

She got down and started walking to the premises.

*Wow, miss Janelle, you look more beautiful today. Bet Mr George is really taking care of you, awn, lucky you*a prosecutor complimented.

“Bet he is. And I blushed, Crystal, thanks for the nice compliment”Janelle gave a grateful smile.

She moved in further and people keep looking at her.

No one passed beside her without looking her for the second time, third time.

“And there’s my baby looking all good. You’re just too pretty, Janelle. I wish I am a man, I would have proposed to you long ago….”Diana beamed on seeing Janelle.

Janel lifted up her left hand showing her the ring on her finger.

“I’m taken”she muttered.

“Oh, well, I won’t mind. Then, I will have to be George’s rival.”

Janelle laughed.

They both walked through the lobby.

“What’s up with you and Ren. I hope you’ve settled things out.”

“Yeah. He is taking me out on a dinner tonight so…”

“No wonder you’ve been beaming with smiles. Well, I’m jealous”

“Don’t be. George is always available and he loves you so so much so you just tell him you want a dinner date and he gives it to you.”

Janelle scoffed.

Janelle bade her goodbye as she went to her office.

She sat down and placed her bag down on the table.

She brought out her phone and took a picture then uploaded it on the internet with the hashtag #newdaynewlook

She placed the phone on her desk and pressed her lips together as she stood up to get some files from the shelf.

George was in his office surfing the internet.

He left home early not because he has alot of work in the office but because he was trying so hard avoid Janelle.

He has been here doing nothing.

His schedule is free today. All he just has to do for the day is to sign an endorsement which would barely take him up to thirty minutes.

He sighed and as he tried to log out, something caught it attention.

His mouth opened slightly as he saw Janelle’s beautiful picture.

He suddenly wish for her presence in the room.

Funny, sometimes when they had arguments which leads to silent treatment, he still someone craves for her, for something her..

That’s just how much he loves her.

He went ahead to read the comments.

*The great prosecutor. You look good*

*Awn, George is really taking care of her. So lovely*

*Good morning, lucky girl*

*I love you*

He went to check the picture of the person that gives the last comment and when he saw it as a girl, he felt relieved.

Wait… what was he even thinking?.

If it’s a boy, then what would it do?

Well, a boy can love her too, right?

But that love will be different from his. He might love her because she is a great prosecutor.

Oh, why is he working himself up over this?.

He saved her picture and used it as his wallpaper.

He remembers the other night and smiled.

She looks so cute when drunk.

Well, he would have to admit, she is a bad drinker but a cute one.

A knock sounded on the door and Janelle looked up at it.

“Who?”

“It’s… it’s Lydia, ma’am Janelle”

“Oh, come on in”

The door opened and Lydia walked in and closed the door behind her.

“Hi, ma”

“Hello, Lydia. I’m glad you are here.”

Lydia stood in front of her and bowed.

“Come on, Lydia. Take a seat”

“Thank you”she moved forward and sat down.

“So..”

Lydia’s stomach made a noise interrupting Janelle’s words.

“Are you hungry?”

“Me?? No. At all.”she answered but her stomach grumbled again.

Janelle smiled.

“That gave you out. Let’s go out for breakfast.”

“You… you don’t…”

“Hey, don’t don’t me”Janelle stood up and took her purse in her bag.

“I’m such a bug, aren’t I?. I always worry you”Lydia mumbled sadly.

“At all. Afterall, I haven’t taken in anything this morning also so…”

Lydia slowly stood up and they both walked out.

Janelle locked her door and they went out to the lot to her car.

She drove to a restaurant nearby.

.

“What would you like, ma’am?”

“Mac and cheese, a cup of coffee, and donuts”Janelle says.

“And you?”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“I….”Lydia stammered.

“Just order for anything, Lydia. I will pay”

“Thank you so much, ma’am. I will take some snacks and a cup of Americano. I hope that’s not to much, miss Janelle?”

“Stop embarrassing me, Lydia. If I didn’t have the money, I wouldn’t have bring you here”

“Alright. Your order will arrive soon”the waiter says and turned to leave but Janelle stopped him.

“Please, pack some donuts for her also and hamburgers”

“Alright”

“I can’t thank you enough, Lydia”

“You should stop, Lydia. Your thanks is too much for me. I’m only doing what a lady will do a lady like her.”

A guy suddenly came to their table.

“Hi, I’m Max. I’ve been looking at you from afar this while and I must confess, you are beautiful. So, can I take a picture with you”

Before Janelle could figure out what was happening, he brought out his phone and suddenly placed his lips on hers and took some pictures.
