Chapter 19
Anu-Ms K
I wake and find myself smiling at fantasies of Daniel fucking me. No thanks to Nkem. I haven’t told her much about the date and now he’s moving in. It’s all happening so fast. Maybe I should call her. I’ll have to call her soon anyway.
My phone pings with a text from Daniel.
Unc Dan: Can we meet later today, say five at Mrs Wu, to discuss the agreement?
Me: I think you are falling for Mrs Wu’s love potion.
Unc Dan: Not quite yet, but I’m open to meet anywhere you suggest.
Me: Is this our second date then?
Unc Dan: No. Trust me, I’ll let you know when we have our second date. Where do you want to meet to discuss the agreement?
Me: Okay, you know you can’t cling to this date forever, but we can meet at five at a Mediterranean restaurant five stores away from Mrs Wu.
Unc Dan: See you there.
I jump out of bed and call Nkem on facetime.
“Hey,” she answers with a face covered in some beauty treatment.
“Are you sitting?” I ask.
“What’s wrong? Are you okay?”
“I’m fine. So, last night, I stayed back at Cara’s because it was raining heavily, and Daniel and I had dinner and…”
“And… you better spill… did he fuck you over the piano?” she squeals.
“No, he agreed to move in with me, and we are meeting today to talk about it.” Her mouth drops open, and she’s speechless for a few moments.
“Let me get this straight, the guy that dropped $150k for a chance to take you on a date, just now agreed to move in with you and you keep thinking he doesn’t want to squeeze that well-toned ass of yours?” I know but I don’t want to believe it.
“Co..rr..ect” I say with a side eye and a slight side twist of my lips.
“If I didn’t like him before, I now like him. Please let him move in asap.”
“You won’t even think about the possibility of it being a bad idea?”
“Nope, I think hallelujah. Your dry spell is finally over,” she shouts.
“You are crazy, Nkem.”
“Yep, that too. Let me know when to come and help him move in.”
“Bye.”
“Sure, and please don’t disappoint in whatever you wear, though I’m pretty sure that guy will still hump you if you are wearing a sack,” she giggles.
“Bye,” I say again, hanging up and racing to my closet to find something to wear that’s sexy and not desperate.
If I thought the idea of Daniel moving in was crazy, Nkem just made is sound much better. I’m tired of worry and excuses. I’m up for it, and can’t wait.
