Chapter 12: Chapter 12

"You should see his face when I paid for his own share." I told Comfort.

"Maybe no one has done something like that for him. Because he's handsome, most people would assume he's very rich." She replied.

"And he said he wants me to meet his younger sister."

"That's like meeting your sister in-law." She said excitedly,and I wasn't sure who was supposed to be more excited.

"The way you're excited is like you're happy to throw me out of the house." I murmured but she still heard me.

"Of course, I'll have the whole bed to myself." She said, and I laughed.

"Of course you will."

The next day at work,I couldn't stop smiling.Maybe it is the fact that I'm meeting his sister or that I'm going to see him again.

"You have to tell me why you're smiling." Grace said.

"I'm always smiling." I argued.

"I know, but this is different." She continued.

"It's not." I said.

"Tracy,tell Precious that her smile is different today." Grace called out to Tracy.

"It's true,tell me are you getting some?" She asked.

"What do you mean by getting some?" I asked, truly confused.

"Oh my goodness, you're a lost cause." Tracy said, putting her hands on her head dramatically.

"She means are you having sex?" Grace said in a clearer version,and I blushed at the thought of Michael and I having sex.

"Would he even want to have….ugh why am I thinking about it?" I thought.

"I think we got our answer and girl, get laid." Tracy said.

"Am I that easy to read?" I thought.

"Don't overthink it, it'll happen at the right time." Grace advised and I nodded before we were both called into the kitchen.

The day went on without any drama and fortunately,the man who normally wanted me to serve him didn't come today so I

saw it as a good thing.

We have been paid for our first month,and still Mary didn't say anything about the uniform being short for me and I am scared to go meet her after the last encounter where we were gisting.

Just like any other day,it came to an end but I had to wait for Comfort to clear up. I'd change back into my normal clothes as usual.

"You don't want to keep lover boy waiting, do you?" She asked.

"I don't think he's here yet,and you're almost done so it's okay." I told her.

"Did I mention I'm meeting someone today?" She asked and it definitely got my attention.

"You didn't, tell me everything." I commanded.

She told me how she met the guy when she went strolling and they decided to meet up the next day, which is today.

"I can't believe you didn't tell me." I said.

"Technically,I just told you." She replied with a smirk forming on her lips.

"Whatever,I gotta go, wish me luck." I said.

"Oh darling,you don't need luck,you have your face and body." She told me and I scoffed in reply.."only you would say that."

Michael was standing outside and as usual,he looked good in the casual clothes he's putting on and beside him stood an unfamiliar face which I assume is his sister and boy, she's a beautiful female version of Michael.

"Hey Mikey." I greeted shyly as he brought me in for a hug.

"Angel.." He said, and I smiled with my hands still around his waist.

A small cough made me withdraw my hand from where it was.

"Sorry, Precious, this is my sister Emily, Emily, meet Precious." He introduced me.

"You're so pretty." We said together, before laughing.

"Nice to meet you Emily." I said.

"It's nice to meet the person my brother couldn't stop talking about." She said,and I gave her my hand for a handshake but instead,she brought me in for a hug.

With the way she is,I could tell she is very close to Michael and that is one thing I envy about her, that is apart from the beautiful dress she's putting on.

Emily is a great talker just like Comfort so it is okay. She talked as though we'd been friends for a while. Michael was left out of the conversation because anytime he tries to contribute, Emily looks at him strangely which shuts him up.

"I'm new here,so I barely know my way around and besides if I wasn't hanging out with Michael, I would be at work or at home." I explained,when she asked if I'd been to a certain beach.

"Maybe we can go there, anytime you're less busy. She suggested.

Emily and I got along well,but along the line I unconsciously held Michael's hand and when I realized what I'd done and tried to remove it,he held my hand back drawing different shapes on them while I listened to Emily talk.

"Let's order something, I'm starving." Emily said.

"What do you want?" Michael asked, looking at the menu.

"I'm not hungry,I ate just before coming." I said.

"You have to eat something,you can't just watch us eat." Emily said.

"Well,a certain someone is very good at watching people eat." I said, smiling knowingly at Michael.

"What! She looks cute." He defended and I blushed which I tend to do a lot around him.

"Really!" Emily deadpanned, looking at her brother.

"Don't blame me, she's beautiful." He said.

"Well, that I can't argue." Emily said, agreeing.

I'm not sure since I haven't met the rest of the family but they're both nice and accepting and I hope the rest were just like them….this is me thinking of the future when he hasn't said anything about a possible relationship.

Emily and I got along well and I even mentioned Comfort who she said she couldn't wait to meet if she is anything like me. All the while, Michael had a smile on his face with my hand still in his and the time he left it to eat,I felt the warmth leave my hand and I took his left hand instead before smiling sheepishly at him.

"We should hang out more." Emily suggested and I agreed.

"I'm looking forward to it." I answered.

"Before then, can I have her attention now? You only wanted to meet her." Michael said, throwing his hand around my shoulder.

"Well I did,and I like her so calm down you see her every other day." She said, and he actually pouted.

Sometimes I wonder why he's talking to me,I mean he's like a greek god and I'm just my plain self.

When we were all exhausted,we decided to call it a day but that was after Emily collected my number.

"Take care of yourself and call me if my brother is misbehaving,I know how to deal with him." She said, whispering the last part.

"I heard that." Michael said.

"Good,you were meant to." She told him.

The both of them left after Emily hugged me and Michael placed a kiss on my forehead... I'm never taking my bath again. The kiss sent tingles down my body and it was a miracle I didn't fall.

"It is just a kiss on the forehead, anyone can give you that." Was all I kept muttering as I matched back home.
