Chapter 30: Chapter 30

"To whom do I owe this pleasant surprise?" Soil inquired with a huge grin on her face as she got up to welcome Lisha who just stepped into her office.

Lisha relaxed into the hug before Soil withdrew from it after some seconds.

"I never expected you oo," Soil started as she led Lisha to the two seater while she say on the couch opposite it.

Lisha smiled, "I just decided to pay you a visit, I was bored at home," she answered truthfully, she had been more than bored at home ever since the weekend started. Nikki had dropped Miracle off at her parents place while Nikki had been on and off, she left early in the morning only to come back late, this time she didn't even eat her food and Lisha had been more than worried.

Soil's smile increased, "That's so thoughtful of you but how did you know I was at this branch."

Lisha wriggled her brows, "I called Hanmi to confirm."

Soil nodded, "No wonder, what of that your sister gan, I hope she has decided to listen to Daniel?"

"Nikki is fine and no she hasn't given him audience, main reason we aren't on good terms now."

Soil folded her arms beneath her bossom, "Hmm, it's better she listens to him and stop chasing other people's husband oo."

Lisha creased her brows, "Husband ke?"

Soil bobbed her head, "Yes na or is she not chasing your husband?"

Lisha puckered her brows, "Me I don't have husband oo."

Soil gave a short and soft laugh, "Jimi nko?"

She chuckled, "He's my boyfriend."

Soil hissed, "Boyfriend ko? He's already your husband oo."

Lisha only laughed in response, she knew better than to continue arguing with her.

"So, Li Baby, what should I offer you?"

She shook her head,"Don't bother Mama, I'm okay."

Soil cocked her head, "You're not okay oo, you can't come to my workplace restaurant for that matter and tell me you are okay."

"Okay, I'll take anything," Lisha concluded, she knew arguing with her would only prove abortive.

"Better, let me ring them up to bring you something," she got up and went over to her seat before calling through the landline, after few seconds she joined Lisha again, just as she opened her mouth to talk, a call came into her phone, it was her daughter; Kemi.

After talking for a few minutes, they ended the call and Soil turned to Lisha.

"I just got an invite to the spa from Kemi, let's go together," Soil proposed and Lisha nodded without hesitation, it had been long since she visited the spa and she really needed the care right then.

"Okay Mama."

Soil clapped, "Good then, I'l tell them to pack your food as a takeaway."

Lisha bobbed her head, "That would be better."

"Okay, let's go," Soil rose to her feet and Lisha did the same.

*************

Jimi walked out of the bathroom with his towel wrapped around his torso only to be shocked at what was staring at him.

Nikki was on his bed sitting comfortably like she owned it and was dressed in a net black gown that revealed her underwear underneath, there was no difference walking with the underwears alone, the net did much than to cover her exposed body.

"What are you doing here?" He inquired almost harshly.

Nikki threw him a wanton smile while twirling a strand from her braided hair as she crossed her legs, an attempt to seduce him.

"I said what are you doing here? How did you even get in?". It was almost getting late already, so, there was no way she could use Kemi as an excuse, infact Kemi wasn't home likewise their mother, only the males that comprised of him, his dad and Hanmi were the only ones at home, so, what excuse could she have given the gatekeepers to allow her enter the house.

Nikki rose to her feet before ambling towards him, immediately she got to his front, she looked up at him straight into his eyes and trailed her hand through his chest.

"You have such a broad chest," she commented before pressing herself to him.

"What are you doing?" For a second Jimi thought the voice came from him only to realize it was from the entrance, he snapped his head towards the entrance only to see Lisha holding the door knob and glaring at them.

She'd decided to sleep over at his place after realizing it was getting late when they left the spa which was closer to their place than hers, even if she intended to go back home, Soil would still force her to sleep over at the Adeboye's mansion which she couldn't object to and so she got back to the house with Kemi who immediately left for her room 'cause she was on a call with Mark and Soil who was still addressing the gatekeepers for opening the gate late while they honked.

Leaving Soil with the gatekeepers, she left for Jimi's room with a big smile on her face, the fact that she hadn't see him since Friday made her miss his presence but she wouldn't admit it to him, she'd opened the door gently this time unlike before when barging in was her entry only to be met with a sight that left her stupiefied. Jimi with a towel wrapped around him and Nikki in something that could be as good as naked.

"Why are you at the entrance?" Soil asked from behind Lisha, she'd walked into the house only to see Lisha still standing at the entrance of Jimi's room, curiosity got the best of her and she decided to go up.

Jimi's eyes widened and upon realization that Nikki was still glued to him, he pushed her back instantly and she staggered almost losing her stance.

"You, what are you doing here?" Soil asked as she eyed Nikki's figure before stepping into Jimi's room while Lisha still stayed at the entrance.

Nikki opened her mouth to talk but Soil beat her to it, "And why are you dressed like a prostitute, how did you even get in?" She turned to Jimi who looked away quickly then glanced at Lisha who still kept mute.

"Oya, outside now before I open my eyes, stupid girl," Soil ordered and Nikki hissed before walking out of the room but not without glaring at Lisha and pushing her out of her way.

Soil clapped in disbelief, "Ehh, orisirisi," she dashed Jimi a scowl before walking out of the room.

Immediately she left, Lisha turned to leave but Jimi was quick to grab her hand and pull her into his room.

"Lisha, everything is..." Jimi started while Lisha raised her head to look at him.

"It's okay, I understand," she cut in and Jimi sighed.

"I know it's not okay, you're angry at me, you know how Nikki is and I would never cheat on you, I...' he tried assuring but she cut him off.

"I'm not angry at you, I'm angry at myself, I should have gone home," then she turned to leave but he stopped her by wrapping his hands around her waist.

"I'm sorry, you don't have to be angry at yourself, it's my fault for not locking the door, you don't have to leave," be pleaded and Lisha stayed quiet for some minutes before turning back to him.

"It's alright, I'm not leaving," she gave a genuine smile and Jimi heaved a sigh of relief.

"Thank God," he uttered before pecking her. After the peck, Lisha walked into his room fully, she dumped her bag by the side of his bed while he headed towards his walk-in wardrobe to get dressed.

Lisha slumped on his bed as she stared up at the ceiling, thoughts of Nikki's acts came rushing to her, was she that desperate to the extent of throwing herself at a guy that doesn't want her? Was she...

The feel of a warm body stop her cut short her thoughts. She raised her head only to see Jimi smiling sheepishly at her.

"Get off me!" She pushed him away and he chuckled before laying by her side and then pulling her closer to him.

"I'm feeling uncomfortable in my dressing, I need to get myself out of this cloth," she pushed his hand away before standing up.

"Just say you want to wear my T-shirt, I hope you won't end up making me shirtless one day," he teased and she turned to look at him.

"What am I here for? Your T-shirts her more comfortable," then she walked away without waiting for his response only to come back later in his white T-shirt that only stopped on her thighs.

She joined him on the bed before snuggling closer to him, wrapping his hands around her, he planted kisses on her face which made her giggle.
