LOGINThe door to Isere's hostel opened revealing Ejiro with her arms crossed across her chest and a little frown on her face.
Isere didn't know what to say, but she was definitely going to ask her later, now she had to take her bath and get dressed quickly because Kelvin was waiting for her.
Kelvin didn't like going into the ladies hostel, it was something he hated. His ex girlfriend who was in the same department as him never stayed in an hostel, she stayed in a self contained apartment.
Isere rushed into the house, searching her bag for a very nice dress to wear, she didn't take a look at the man Ejiro was with as she wasn't interested in anything than Kelvin.
"Madam, where you dey rush go? " Ejiro finally said a word. Isere smiled at her cheekily before telling her Kelvin was waiting for her downstairs.
The man Ejiro was with left the room to give them privacy after Ejiro introduced Isere to her boyfriend and her boyfriend to Isere. "So that was your boyfriend and you didn't even think that you don't stay alone and that you could have spoilt my innocent eyes ehn!" Isere spat out but it wasn't in a serious tone.
Ejiro chuckled, "I was extremely horny, like we were meant to go to an hotel after we go out but he started giving me fleeting kisses and I knew Morgan rarely stays here as she travels back to back and you were with Kelvin and when you are with him, you tend to return on a Monday morning or on Sunday night." Ejiro explained.
Isere blushed when she heard Kelvin's name. "So he finally kissed you? Eh eh, our Isere has grown on. How was it like?" Ejiro teased making Isere blush.
All memories of their kiss came running through her memory and she never tasted anything like it before. "Leave me alone, how do I look?" Isere asked Ejiro.
"You look stunning!" Ejiro told her.
Isere was wearing a peach strapless dress and a white canvas, a pendant was around her neck, she carried a small chain clutch with her after putting her phone in it. She just packed her natural hair in a small bun, wore a big ring earring and applied a strawberry lip gloss on her lips.
"See you till tomorrow night or or Monday morning," Isere told her walking out of the door.
"Bye dear and I must get the full details!" Ejiro shouted after her.
Isere nervously walked towards Kelvin ford Jeep as she kept taking deep breaths.
Kelvin was resting at the passenger side of the car typing something on his phone when Isere reached him, he stared at her like a predator to a prey. She looked extravagant in just a simple outfit, captivating, mesmerizing, alluring, charming and to top it all beautiful.
He pulled her closer, wrapping his arms around her waist and he leaned in to peck her lips.
"Stop it," she whined like a baby, playing with her finger nails. "You will ruin my lip gloss and we are outside." Kelvin chuckled at her childishness as he only found it cute.
"You could always apply another lip gloss right? And besides there is nothing to be shy about," he told her curling his index finger under and chin and raising her face for her eyes to meet his.
"You are beautiful," he pecked her forehead. He opened the car door for her and help her sit in the car before he walked over to the driver side to settle in.
Kelvin opened the door leading Isere into the house. Isere was met with cake, wine, spaghetti made with peppered stew that had a lot of sardine and Titus fish.(Jollof spaghetti) There was fried plantain on the table and fried chicken. The food looked so yummy and she gulped, her stomach rumbling in appreciation.
She was surprised how he had prepared so many dishes in such a short period of time. She turned to the Kelvin with widened eyes and pulled him in for a hug.
Kelvin had done few calls for this arrangement to be done when he had taken Isere home to change. There were red roses on the floor and Isere admired the decoration.
In the middle of the table was a read heart balloon with an Happy valentine Written on it.
"Happy Valentine and one day anniversary baby," Kelvin told her pulling her closer and resting his hands on her hip.
Isere blushed and then she remembered her gift for him and how she had forgotten it. " Thanks so much!" she hugged him.
Kelvin pulled the chair back for her to sit before he took a sit opposite her.
Isere took pleasure staring at the dishes in front of her, she was hungry no doubt.
Isere moaned as she tasted the delicious spaghetti for the first time. It was delicious no doubt after all she had eaten with her eyes. The aroma alone was satisfying and the food itself was a pleasing taste to the mouth.
Kelvin watched her in awe as she wrapped the spaghetti on her fork before placing them in her mouth, that action turned him on instantly.
Isere has always been a temptress although she never knew that. There was no time Kelvin was with her and didn't think dirty, just that he was sure to hold himself.
Isere noticed Kelvin's eyes on her and that made her kind of uncomfortable as he hadn't touched his food yet. "What's...wrong?" Isere stuttered.
"Nothing," he said to her.
"You barely touched your food?" She said to him. He licked his bottom lips revealing his side dimple, "Are you not hungry?" She asked him.
"I am." He replied. "But for something else?" He added.
Isere who didn't understand what he meant asked again, "You don't like the food? It's delicious or you want something else to eat?" She asked him.
"I know the food is delicious even though I haven't eaten it because the best chefs made them but..." He trailed off making Isere inquisitive.
"But what?" She asked him.
"I want to eat something more better," he said to her shrugging the topic off as he finally put some of the spaghetti in his mouth.
"You could have told them to make what you want instead of forcing yourself to eat this," she lamented suddenly feeling bad that he might have chosen this for her and not himself.
He noticed the small frown on her face, then assured her it has nothing to do with her but within him, he had other thoughts and and Isere knew not what he thought when he first saw her dressed in that cleavage revealing strapless peach dress.
"Since it's our first day together and our first val, why don't we keep memories by taking a picture?" Isere suggested smiling to her cheek.
Kelvin wasn't a picture person that much, although he takes them but it was mainly because his friends had taken them with him or forced him to be in their picture.
Isere asked for his phone and he gave it to her after opening the phone for her to be able to access it.
Isere collected the phone from him and and the displayed photo on his phone shocked her. "When was this taken because I have no memory of this?" She asked him.
"That's was the week you left for Lagos," he told her. "I know but you took the picture while i was asleep right?" She asked him.
"Yes." He confirmed.
"It's really nice, I didn't know I was a sleeping beauty," I
Isere coo'd"Indeed you are!" He replied.
"Can I ask you something?" Isere spoke. "Yes, go on?" Kelvin said.
"Can I call you Segun?" She asked him.
She was just jealous that all people closed to him called Segun except her.
"Is that a question?" He asked her.
Isere frowned, "What does it sound like to you?" She retorted.
"I remembered telling you, you have the right to anything regarding me and calling me Segun shouldn't be a question because you can call me anything you like," he said to her.
"Ohh," Isere spoke. "So if I call you fowl, it's okay by you?" She raised her brows teasingly.
Kelvin chuckled, "As long as I'm your fowl, no issue." He replied and Isere laughed hard.
Isere and Kelvin retired to the bedroom since it was nighttime already. Isere laid on her back so as Kelvin as she looked at his chandelier.
She suddenly turned around to look at him resting one of her hand on his chest. "Thank you for today and I have something to give you but I forgot it at my hostel," she told him.
"Really?" He asked her, "What did you get for me?" He asked her.
"It's a secret," she retorted. "Can...can...I kiss you?" She asked him, suddenly feeling shy, her voice was low.
"Is that a question?" He asked her boring into her eyes.
"Yes," she takes a deep breath. "Are we still doing this?" He asked her.
Isere leaned down and pecked his lips but Kelvin wasn't gonna let it slide like that, he pulled her closer and kissed her lips.
He deepened the kiss, changing their position as her hovered Isere and kissed her as if it was his last.
Isere wrapped her arms around his neck, following his every movement. He shoved his tongue inside her mouth earning a moan from her as he thrust his tongue deeper in her mouth tasting every inch of her mouth.
The peach wine and strawberry cake was tasted as he kissed her, enjoying them better in her mouth. Isere couldn't think of anything as her nipple stood still when his lips came in contact with her neck, dropping fleeting kisses on her collar bone.
Isere bite her lips stiffening her moan, he was driving her insane. Isere wrapped her legs around his waist pulling her closer to him, that action has made Kelvin gasped.
After placing a long chaste kiss on her lips, he rolled off her and laid on his back.
"Why did you stop?" She asked him, her voice came in a whisper but he could hear her.
"Let's go to sleep." Was his simple reply.
Isere didn't like the reply and it made her think that he stopped because she wasn't a good kisser. "Am I that terrible at kissing?" She asked him, hurt evident in her tone. She unconsciously played with her finger nails.
"What?--No!" He was shocked by her question.
"Then was it because I bit your tongue the other time?" She asked him, she was loving the feeling of the kiss and what it did to her body and he suddenly stopped and it made her paranoid.
"It's not because of any of that, trust me. You don't know what you do to me or else you wouldn't have said that." He sighed.
He turned to look at her, "Trust me, it has nothing to do with that, you don't what what is happening to me." He whispered to her but enough for her to hear.
"I want to use the bathroom," he told her getting up from the bed.
"Okay," she said avoiding his eyes.
Isere came out of the shower wearing Kelvin's white button shirt which stopped on her mid thigh. She watched Kelvin who was busy typing on his phone with admiration.When she recalled the fact she was pregnant, she became nervous, she thought of how to tell him and she imagined his reaction in a not so good way.She heaved a sigh as she made advances towards him. "I have to go now, my parents would soon be worried," Isere said, her voice came out low and that bothered Kelvin."Are you okay? Is there something you are not telling me?" Kelvin asked. He was concerned and worried."Kate, you had something to tell me, what is it?" He asked her, looking deep into her eyes.He couldn't understand her
Kelvin waited for Isere whilst tracing her movement on his phone. He missed her a lot and wanted to wrap his arms around her. He was thinking of what he'd do when he sees her first and the thought of seeing her face sent shivers down his spine.He didn't know that four weeks of staying away from her would do him bad.My drama queen?: I am here, now come and pick me!Kelvin chuckled lightly when he saw her message, she liked being bossy and it made him laugh whenever she acted bossy.Kelvin: Do you have to shout when you can bite??My drama queen ?: I'm so going to smack your head when I see you, so kindly help me already.Kelvin replied her while making his way outside to go get her.He was glad the guys went out as he needed some time with her before they return.
Its been one week since the incident between Isere and her parents; at first it was kind of awkward between them all as no one said nothing to each other.Isere's parents spoke to each other first before inviting Isere to join them and they all spoke. They spoke to the extent of deciding to let Isere take her path and do what she wanted as a means of correcting their past mistakes.The next day, Isere mother had asked Isere to follow her to the market to get groceries and in an polite manner which took Isere by shock.The family has been trying to bond and correcting past mistakes by watching programmes other than news together; Isere was shocked and was taken aback when she saw her mother tune the station to African magic.Her parents never brought up the topic regarding her pregnancy and who the father was although she knew they'd ask her soon.She hasn't been forced to do anything and h
Isere swallowed the lump in her throat when she was asked the question regarding the real father of her child. She wasn't expecting pastor Fredrick to catch her so easily.She was stunned as she bit her bottom lips, thinking of what to say next.She was still in awe of her mother's past and how notorious her mother was. Never has she pictures her mother in that way before.She felt hurt that she had to suffer for her mother's past mistake, she felt hurt that they had used the wrong ways to train her although they had the right reasons at heart.She was glad she had pulled this stunt or else, she'd be thinking of the consequences of getting an unexpected pregnancy and continue to suffer as usual."I am disappointed!" Isere deadpanned."All my life, I was deprived from everything. I neither had a mother to talk to me in a loving manner and a father to tease and listen
The room was silent, pastor Fredrick, pastor Mrs Williams, Isere, Isere's father all turned to look at Isere's mother as she began to speak."I was scared pastor, I only did that to prevent the past from repeating itself. I was scared my past would hunt me so I decided to do all I can do prevent it," Isere's mother spoke."By locking me in the house and beating me for saying certain words?!" Isere scoffed."Katherine, she is your mother, have some respect for her," Pastor Fredrick said to Isere. Isere kept mute as let her mother continued."I am a victim of God's grace and love and if not, maybe I might be in hell for my treacherous and immoral ways.""Interesting," Isere muttered with s
"Head pastor, welcome," Mr and Mrs Osagbai greeted.The head pastor Mr Fredrick was shocked to see the tension in the room , he stared at all the people in the room confused and wondered what had happened."Peace be unto you all," he finally said. He took a seat and prayed for some seconds before asking what the situation was about."The past has repeated itself again!" Isere mother cried out, tears rolling down her cheek as she paced around the room."What is going on?" Pastor Fredrick asked."Pastor, you won't believe what I am about to tell you, the church name has been tainted by those who the youths look up to," Mrs Williams spoke confusing Pastor Fredrick."What is happening?" Pastor Fredrick asked, he didn't understand what she just said."Katherine here is pregnant and for no one else but her father!" Mrs Williams spat out."Jesus
