His Immense Desires novel Chapter 9

BELONGING TO THE OUTER WORLD

****JANELLE'S POV****

After I had met with the Novato estate agent or manager, whatsoever they call him, I signalled to Steff, for us to go home.

I had surveyed the house very well, and it's just the perfect place for any students to stay, as it's very quiet, and another bonus to the house is the fact that it's so beautiful.

I wasn't bothered of the fact that the lodge, No, I won't literally call it a lodge as that's someone's house. Ohh yeah!!, that reminds me, the estate agent said something about the owner coming back anytime.

Anyways I don't want to be bothered much, since Steff said she hasn't heard that the owner ever came here to stay.

I do hope and pray that by that time, he would have changed his mind, cause I can't imagine staying with a man, at worst, a stranger.

Immediately I thought about him being a stranger, my subconscious mind said, "are you really gonna call him a stranger right now??", Do you really think he's a stranger?.

"Ohh yeah, I do know he's a stranger, cause literally I have never met him in my entire life, so I don't think I know him", I replied back.

"Chubs?,chubs!!!!, Chubs, what are you thinking of, oh yeah I know, you're thinking about the wet life you're gonna live when you resume college"

"WTF are you saying, lady macho, you know I won't ever do what you're thinking of, right now, I feel so blessed of the fact that I won't be staying with you" I said.

"Excuse me!!!!!, What did I just hear you say, I hope am having a dis functional ear, You just called me a lady macho???. I can't believe this.

And for the record let me tell you, for the fact that I won't be staying in your lodge doesn't necessarily mean I won't be with you all the time", Steff replied.

"Please enough with the talks, let's just head straight home, I have no energy left for the argument you're trying to start up now.

God knows, the last thing I'll ever do is to start up a heated argument with you, just look at how full, you're looking, it's only when you eat enough food that you'll be able to have time to argue about things that doesn't matter", I said, feeling so tired.

***JANELLE'S POV***

We later boarded a taxi back to our house, I went home, and met my mum, making Jamaican rum. This is actually the first time hearing about Jamaican rum.

I bet it tastes so good, for it so smell like this. I greeted her and gave her a warm hug, she turned back immediately and asked you of my whereabouts.

"Janeeey, where have you been since morning, I called your best friend, Steff, she said you went to your boyfriend's house.

Baby please tell me it's a joke, tell me what she said was a slip of tongue, I don't wanna believe what she said", she said

Right now I'm damn speechless, Steff, what's the meaning of this nonsense, why did she play this stupid stunt on me.

"Hey mum, calm down, I went nowhere, okay actually, I went somewhere, but mum definitely not my boyfriend's house.

Mum!!!, I have just been here for three months and you think I will be so cheap to run into the arms of a stranger.

Mum think this through, I can't and will never lie to you", I said.

Right now, I feel like if a pin should just pass through my skin, I'm gonna burst, what's the meaning of this, when am trying to gain my mum's trust, she's just making it more hard for me.

"Hey listen, I know you want to feel what it's like to be loved, but baby, this is not the right time, I don't wanna see you get hurt, we're good??"

"Yes mum", I snickered. Her best way of making it clear to me that I must adhere to her words, is by ending the discussion with "we're good?".
