You are really stubborn, do you want me to punish you?

Craig! She shake her head to push the thought from her head, Craig just couldn't imagine why she keep taking his name.

Why do you need the light?

I want you to see the food. You are telling lies.

Fine, I want to see your face. Not now, you will see it but not now.

Okay, I will wait. She place her legs on his laps, Craig look at her, is this how she will be placing her legs on a man lap if he is not the one.

His voice came up but a disguise one, he is trying to maintain this strange voice of his.

You should go, Craig will get mad at me. He smirked, even in his absent she is scare of him

You should go to bed, so I can leave.

But you just arrived, stay. She pull the band from her hair, her hair scattered, Craig gasped for air, he try to control himself not to comment on her hair, her voice come up again.

You should carry me.

Cathy!

Sorry! I will go to my room myself. He pulled her into his hand and carry her in a bridal way.

You can sleep now.

Wait, you can leave when I am asleep.

Is that how you trust people? Craig asked her

You can't rape me and you are not a rapist.

Really?

Yes, she sit on the bed and cross her legs, Craig smirk, I will teach her a lesson, so she doesn't trust like this.

He pulled her leg, he was creeping to her, she still didn't make any move.

Are you daring me? Craig asked her, she pushed him from her top.

Silly, that is not how boys rape girls. In a blink, she pushed Craig, she takes him off guard, he is on his back on the bed.

You see, I am fast. She laughed hard with the surprise look on craig face, she is sitting on his top laughing, the next minute Craig demon surface, he pushed her to the bed, he caress her hand, he place kisses on her neck and collarbone

Cathy notice he is not playing anymore, she had made a big mistake because of her stupidity.

Her tears drop, when Craig wipe her face with his tongue, he noticed she is crying, he jumped from her

Sorry! Sorry! I thought you are not afraid, go to bed down.

He stand to leave but Cathy held his gloves hand.

Please stay with me till I fall asleep. Craig close his eyes, why is this girl tempting him badly.

Do you want to get rape? I almost rape you just now.

But you didn't, I just felt comfortable with you, you will not hurt me if I didn't consent to it.

Yes, its the fact, Craig will never touch her without her consent, Cathy hugged him.

That is not my business, work come first. Gregory said and walk away.

Tony, you really are a demon. Brian said to Tony, he look at him. Yes, I thought Craig is the devil, I don't know you are the demon, you made my girlfriend break up with me, you didn't asked me or even show concerned and you sit and talk about your girlfriend in front of me

Brian, I did nothing wrong, if you have issues with your girl, go sort it, count me out.

Fine, enjoy your relationship, for now, I will make sure to bring it to an end

She nodded, they go in, he checked the living room then move to the room, only to see Tony lying on the bed, he didn't go home after the incident with Brian.

Oh! It's sir Tony. Cathy and jack laughed.

Why are you with her in the room? Tony voice is annoying.

Sir!

Why are you here?

Tony! Can you stop bullying the boy? I was scared who enter my house, jack go on.

You should never enter her room.

Yes sir! He sighed as jack walk away.

Tony, did you... She sighed with her mouth, asking if he quarrel.

What are you saying? He knows what she is saying but he wants her to continue.

Fine! Look at me. She opened her mouth, place her hand close to her mouth, she opened the finger as she move her lips very fast.

Tony look at her like a lost sheep.

Fine, did you quarrel? You are looking all annoying.

I know what you are talking about. He said laughing, Cathy pout.

Sorry, I was just enjoying what you are doing.

It's okay, what is it?

Uh!

Of cause!

Fine, let me erase it for you, come here. He sit on the couch, She massage him till he fall asleep.

Good morning Mrs Mabel.

Morning Whitney, how was your night? It's fine and...

Who brought this case before me? Brett is mad but Whitney doesn't understand. You should know I don't handle divorce cases.

What is bad in that? When a man don't treat a woman well, it's only right they go their separation ways, it's calls freedom. Brett turned and run out

What did I do?

Whitney, his only sister die because of divorce.

No oh! I must have hurt him with my words, I need to go after him

No... She didn't finish her word, Whitney is out.

This girl, will get into trouble.

Mrs Mabel, where is my son?

I am afraid, someone mistakenly give him the divorce case.

Oh no! I go to him.

she pulled the office door, he is not there then she pull the washroom door only to see Brett crying, she hugged him, he stay in between her tummy and waist, he cry in her embrace.

I kill her, I was the bloody one who kill my sister.

Whitney look at him

Two years back, she came home with a boy that she want to get married, I never liked him.

I saw him one day with a lady, I know the bastard is having an affair with another but I have no damn proof

When I find one, it was too late because my sister was already pregnant for the bastard.

I see the love my sister had for him, so I gave him five million so he could stay

I only gave him reason to leave, he used the money for the divorce case and travel out with his lover.

My sister couldn't bear the pain, she kill herself with her unborn baby

Whitney eyes fall open, Philip is looking at them, seeing his son open up to a stranger he felt at easy, he left them, Brett hit the wall

Sorry, maybe you should hit me instead of hurting yourself.

Really? She nodded, he clenched his fist and face him, she close her eyes in fear he laughed and hit her head slightly.

Silly!

Sorry, I didn't know it will hurt you. He smiled, as she pout, he turned his face, her beauty is attracting him.

Oh! I mess your dress.

We are even now. Brett laughed out. Probably get to take off my wears in front of you.

Naughty girl, come with me let me get you one of my spare.

Alright!

She go behind to change, Craig is battling with the printer.

Shit! Why is this thing not working?

Is not working because you are not doing it right. Gregory fixed it for him. I have meeting.

Oh! I will just...

Don't, go home and rest, you are worn-out and did you go out yesterday?

Yes, she called for me, is like Tony didn't leave on time.

Craig, do you want to put her in trouble?

I am not doing anything wrong. Really? Look me in eyes and tell me, you haven't touched her? He fall his eyes

Fine, I kiss her yesterday, I might go further if she didn't cry.

Craig, you are stubborn, You are better not go there today cause Tony suspect someone is visiting her.

Fine, I will not go there, I will just go home and rest.

During the dinner, Whitney was smiling.

Are you alright? Gregory asked her.

Yes, I just realized how I could get my Cathy back.

How are you going to do that? Gregory asked her, she haven't answered before her phone ring, seeing who the caller is she smiled

Hey big brother, why are you calling? Whitney asked George.

Oh, so you are getting spoil by that little rascal? She smiled.

Sorry, I know you are always busy, when are you coming home?

You are asking like you are there to keep me company.

Just say the word and will I appear.

Silly girl, I send you girls money.

How much is it? Whitney asked, George choke. Sorry, what I...

It's okay, you are really become influence by that silly girl that is acting tough.

I will tell her, you call her silly. George laughed.

I am not scared of her, where is the naughty girl? Is unlike her not to talk on the phone or is she is still mad at me

She is...

Give her the phone, give my princess. Whitney eyes bulge out. Don't worry, I will just call her.

No! I mean yes, she is bathing and her phone is bad, don't worry I will tell her to call you, when she returns.

Okay, I hope she is not going to party with that naughty Grace, if she do I will kill her. The phone is laud so Gregory and Craig could hear the conversation.

Come on brother, she did not.

I am just saying, I told her to stay away from boys, if I find out she is with a boy, I will give her the beaten of her life.

Nothing like that boss, take care.

Fine, good night, sweet dreams and peck my baby for me.

If I peck her, who will peck me? I will peck you here. Whitney laughed, George went off the phone, Craig was sweating, he look at Whitney and reduce his voice

Is it George, you want to used to get her back?

Yes, all I need do is tell George, that she is with a boy.

No! Don't, I don't want her to get hurt, just give me few time, I will get her back.

How will you get her back, when you don't even know where she stay? Whitney asked Craig.

Don't worry, I will get her back.

I give you two weeks, if not, I will tell, George.

I will! Whitney stand to leave, she looks at him.

Could he be in love with Cathy? She was talking to herself, she shake her head. He is not, he doesn't care about her.

She looks at him again then leave.

Craig, with the way you are acting, you will give yourself up, go to bed and don't go to Cathy.

I will not.

Tony is with Cathy, she had refused to eat because she wants to eat with Craig, her savior.

Beans pie, are you sure you are not hungry? No, I am perfect.

Okay! He get his files and was working on it, Cathy keep looking at the clock.

Do you want to go somewhere beans pie? No, I want to take drugs but the time seems to be running slow.

Oh! Relax, it will get there if you stop looking.

Alright! Tony goes back to his files, he have alot of stuff to day, he has been away from his branch for a month, so most times he communicate with them online, Cathy keep pacing.

Beans pie, stop you are distracting me.

Sorry, I am sorry. She goes into the kitchen, to get bread.

Are you hungry?

Yes, I want to eat. Tony nodded and go back to his files, Cathy is playing with the bread.

Beans pie! Are you alright?

When are you leaving? Tony look at her, she wanted Tony to leave so she can invite her savior but he is not showing any sigh of leaving and she is restless.

Sorry, I want to sleep that is the reason I asked, don't worry you can stay, I am just being paranoid.

Oh! She goes into her room, in return Tony as pack up his stuff and is leaving.

You are leaving.

Yes, I am, good night.

Good night and be careful. She didn't peck him, he smiled and left, Cathy is in haste to get rid of Tony and call for her savior.

Craig is about to go to bed, when he hear Cathy's voice.

Oh no, now it's late how am I going to invite him and I don't even have his number.

Craig text her.

Go to bed, it's late.
