Chapter 22
The car stop at the house and Vienna came down almost immediately. She wanted to hurry in but Alan held her back and stop her.
“i really need to get in, why don’t you let Kellie help you so you can talk more” she said and wanted to hurry in but Alan held her back.
“you can leave now and you don’t have to come along tomorrow” Alan instruct Kellie and she left with the driver. Alan motion for Vienna to help him in and they both walk in slowly. Immediately they got in Vienna attempt to leave his hand again and run off but Alan held her still.
“is there a problem? You can find the way from here right p>
“why don’t you reject mom’s invitation when she invited you?” he asked instead.
“what are you talking about? She is your mother” she answered.
“what about others who asked you out to meet with them p>
“simple, they are your family” she replied.
“you should have rejected them all, there is no need for you to do all that. You don’t have to try to impress them” he said.
“you think am trying to impress them? Impress my foot. if you truly know the kind of people they are then you wont think am trying to impress them, bunch of sick people, I know I took money for this but there should be a limit. Since the last one week I don’t even have enough time to sleep. always a call from one of them or the other. Calling for lunch, for dinner, for everything and when I get there they insult me and talk to me like a dustbin who takes in trash and you think am trying to impress them” she said in anger. Alan was surprised at her outburst. He only meant that she shouldn’t bother herself with them and honour their invitation all the time.
“leave me I really need to get inside” she said and snatch her hand away from his. Alan was caught by surprise and before him could react he stumbled and fell on her. Vienna was startled and couldn’t react quickly and fell down heavily on the floor with a scream.
“are you alright?’ Alan asked worried and tried to check her.
“ouch! Why are you touching my body get up” she yelled at him in pain. Alan trace his hand to her face and held it.
“your necklace is tangled with my hair” he said and try to undo it. Vienna offered to do it but Alan continue so she let him. After few seconds he was able to. Vienna sigh in relieve and try to get up again but Alan held her down. Vienna wanted to talk but then she felt his hand near her neckline and swallow hard. Alan lean in more to her face and breathe in her scent. After three years, her scent as changed slightly but he still remembers it. He breathe in gently with his breathe blowing gently on her neck. Vienna heart beat a little faster and she felt butterflies down in her stomach. She wanted to push him away but her body wanted more of his touch. Alan trace his hand down to her ear and run his hand on her face then he bought his mouth to her neck and kissed her.
