Jacob didnt go home that night,he lodged in an hotel,he had called Janet to say hi,his mother called too,but he refused to pick it up,he wondered why his mother was bent on making unnecessary trouble for him,he had enough on his plate already,work consumed most of his time and energy,the little left was already being taken up by his heart robe Janet,so why would his mother be stiring stilled waters.....
It wasn't as if Janet craved for trouble,she hardly visited him at home,she was humble,calm,kind hearted,gracious and smart.Her family loved him,what else.
He rolled on the soft bed,pulling the pillow to his chest,his body quivered,there's something about Janet that usually stroke him up,he was experiencing feelings that can't be explained,in the office,home, and everywhere he found himself the only thought that sat gallantly on his mind was Janet Odenuga.
One thing that baffled him was Janets refusal to make love with him,the relationship is getting close to twenty four months yet,he had never seen the colour of her pants,the highest thing they had done was kiss,touch and hug and each time he tried getting her to talk about it,she would go stiff and moody.Mere thinking of her excited him,his third leg stood up ,he pushed it down,his soul longed for her,and his body sought hers.
He thought about Katherine and he realised that both ladies were different in every way.The only thing they had in common was beauty,any other thing stood apart,but it was clear that they are made up of different items,its of no use comparing salt with sugar.His mother really liked Katherine,and consistently asked after her,even when he told her they broke,she tried all she could to bring them back,but he stood firmly on his grounds,it was a big NO from him.she had stopped trying and suggested other beautiful ladies,to which he declined,her friends daughter,chief that daughter,senator this daughter,most of whom were spoilt,cute but dull women,he wasn't even old at that.That reminded him about his Lunch with Katherine,honouring her invite was good because she could be a bag of trouble when she wanted to be,he remembered his time with Katherine,she had a great body,and good bedmatics,her full bosom,he loved handling them,her hips,her flat tommy,Kat could go extra miles to satisfy him on the bed.he didnt want to think about that now.
...............
It was a warm saturday morning,days when you feel like partying,though she wasn't one for club stuffs,she still loved going out and seeing beautiful places,she had woken up in high spirits today,she soaked herself in a warm bath,she let her mind wander through the past two years,and all Jacob had done for her,she was a happy woman at twenty three,dating one of the most elegible bachelor in Nigeria,she sure knew she was an envy to many ladies,Jacob had crawled into her life suddenly,lighting up her world,his mother was the darkness that wanted to filter her joy,happiness surged through her body,at the thought of Jacob Adekunle Smith.He was patient with her,she had denied him access to her body with little explanation for it,she wasn't a church person though,but she had vowed to keep her body for just one man,her husband,and the father of her children,if she ever had any,she loved children.Jacob was tolerating her and she knew,she only prayed that he could wait,until she gave in,.....but would he wait? That question burned in her mind.
Janet thought about her lovely sister and her kind hearted mother,she loved her family,she gave her love to Jacob,leaving for her NYSC camp would be a bit difficult,she was in Lagos now,no thanks to Jacob.she hadn't even packed yet camp was just 7days away.
She had called Jacob to ask if he could make it, to take her out for lunch,but he said he had ''an all afternoon meeting with some foreign clients''.
She ate her brunch quietly reading a soft sell magazine,it was about celebreties and their rate of divorce, she was enjoying her meal of boiled rice and plantain with fresh fish stew supporting it with a can of coke.
The door bell rang,bringing her back from the world of celebs,she had sent Rose to get her some things,so she had to get the door herself,the bell rang again,the caller was being impatient,she stood to get the door.
She opened the door,and stood there staring at the caller,that was the least person she expected to see.......
................
Staring at Janet was Lucy her part time friend.
'Hello Jane' she laughed,waving her hand in Jane's face.
'Hi Lucy'she replied hugging her.
'How are you doing!'Janet said, hugging her tightly.
'Before i say something,won't you ask me in'Lucy said laughing.
Janet opened the door wider to let her in, 'Don't mind me,come right in' she said.
Lucy jumped on the couch,crossing her leg,Janet was least surprised,Lucy was a fun loving person,she lived in a beautiful house opposite theirs,she lived with her parents and her two older brothers,Her father was a medical doctor,who owned a psychiatric hospital and two other hospitals,he partnered various organisations,he was always busy,though strict he had a spoilt daughter,Lucy's mother owned the biggest supermart in the estate with over fifty workers.
Lousy Lucy as Jane and Hannah often referred to her behind her,loves talking,she would go and on about her handsome brothers and their money.
'Jane,you're always looking beautiful' She complimented,folding her hands on her leg.
'Pot calling kettle black,i can say the same for you too' she said smiling.
'Its been months i saw you'
'Huh,No,its just four weeks you've been to school.' she replied.
'How's Hannah and your mum' She asked.
'They're both doing fine,and you'she said playing with her hair.
'Aren't you going to offer me something to drink' Lucy asked
'Oh,sorry,i forgot my manners,what do i offer you?'
she said moving toward the kitchen.
'What do you have in there?' she asked.
'I'ld have to check,so hold on'Janet answered.
'Jane,wait how about we go out and catch some fun!' she said going in to the kitchen to meet Janet.
'Yeees yes yes'She shouted.'i want us to go out' she said laughing.She was finally going to catch some fun indeed.She was already thinking of what to wear.
'Jane? Are you ok?' she asked suddenly.
'Ofcourse,i am,what made you ask!'
'Thats because this is the first time you'll agree to go out without much persuassion' she paused 'Am kind of surprised'
'well,i just feel happy today' she smiled with her eyes,'so where are we going to' she asked
'what do you think of FoodCo Restaurant?'
Janet rolled her eyes 'That Restaurant is expensive' she said
'Hey girl,the bill is on me,so relax'
'Fine,let me change my clothes then'
'Jane,you have ten minutes to do that,don't stay all day' she stood to go out 'I have to get dressed too.'
Janet knew Lucy was actually making jest of herself,giving her ten minutes,when She,Lucy,could spend two days dressing for a party,Janet wore a chocolate chenille fitted dress,with a white flat baby shoe,she used light make up,and held her hair with two red pin.She checked herself in the mirror,what she saw in there screamed lovely at her,it was thirty minutes of dressing,yet Lucy was not out.
'ElEmEnT perfume,this perfume has a striking saint,you could smell it fifty yards away,even though Lucy was not in sight,but she could smell her because of the perfume,it has this strong effect on people and clothes,Lucy came in rocking a 5inches heel,with a short white dress that has a low neckline,she adorned her neck with a glittering tiny piece of necklace.She looked extremely cute.
'Are u ready Jane' She drawled,turning for Jane to check her out.
'This is.....you look...huh....em....great,great,yes great and lovely too' Janet stammered,the back of the dress from her neck to her waist was sheer lace. Strong,stubborn and staring eyes could see through them.
The two ladies stood side by side.Janet said,
'Don't you think this is too much for Lunch' she asked with wide eyes.
'Jane,i love what happened the other time i turned my back,you were stammering,i want every eyes that sees this' pointing at her backside 'i want their speech slurred because of me' she laughed.
'If thats what you want,you're sure going to get it' she laughed too.
'Don't forget who my father is' she said.
'And don't you forget who my boyfriend is too' she said giggling.
'I won't,hmmmm,i like your new car' Janet nodded thanks to her.
'Are we going in my car'She asked.
Lucy led the way,'Thanks,but No to your offer,because we're going in mine' she said pointing at a blue benz parked outside the gate.
Lucy had three beautiful cars to herself.She was a lucky girl,Janet thought.
Finally,the two gorgeous ladies entered the car,with Lucy on the wheels,they set out for FoodCo Restaurant,which was just an hour,twenty minutes drive away,they left home quarter past One.
With the look of things,the outing looked like it would be an interesting one,Janet thought in her heart,using the seat belt,she relaxed,ready to enjoy the drive while Lucy chatted away.
............
Jacob returned home the next morning,he parked his car in the garage and walked into the house,his mother was in the sitting room watching a movie,just as he entered,she turned to look at him,then quietly return her gaze to the screen.Jacob didn't utter a word,and his mother also kept her peace.He went to his room.
The following day was a Saturday,and he had planned his movement,his secretary had informed him that,he had some messages to attend to and some calls to return.Sharon had handled the ones she could.He used the Gym,took his bath and ate his meal,in the other sitting room.
He sat relaxed on the couch and called their househelp.
'Ruth' he called.
'Yes oga,you called me' she answered.
Jacob turned to look at her,she was wearing a long skirt that was slit in the front,and a tight blouse,her bosom were pushed up,Jacob wondered what pushed the bosom,if it was the bra or the blouse,the bosom looked firm and round.
'Oga Jay' Ruth called again,tracing Jacob's eye to her chest,what was he looking at,she wondered but dare not ask.
Jacob realised that he had been staring, 'Sorrry...em,sorry about that,am relaxing here,and i don't want anyone to disturb me,okay?
'Yes sir,but....Oga,what am i to do?' She asked.
'You're to make sure no one comes in here,okay?'
'Yes sir' she walked away wriggling her buttocks,she closed the glass door quietly.
Ruth went back to her room,she sat dejected on her bed,her plan had failed,she had worn the push up bra to make Jacob notice her,the slit on the skirt was also to get his attention,when she caught him starring,she thought her plan had worked,only for him to recover quickly.She hissed and returned to the Kitchen.
Jacob dozed off only to be woken up by the bleeping of his phone,he picked it up,it was Jane,she had asked to have Lunch with him,to which he declined,lieing that he had a meeting to attend to,he was about resuming his nap when Katherine called to remind of their Lunch together.
He stood up,and stretched his legs,he deliberated on what to wear,after an hour he settled for a crisp,stark white shirt on jeans,he decided to look casual,Katherine had not mention that it was an official lunch,so he dressed lightly,his deep set brown eyes illuminated against his white shirt.He looked handsome.
He drove to Foodco,he arrived just in time to see Katherine going him.Jacob watched Kat walk to a table at the far end of the big room,it looked liked she had called earlier to request for a table.As she walked,eyes turned to admire the beautiful lady,some that were bold enough smiled,Kat swayed her hips,whether it was deliberate or not,was what he couldn't answer.
Jacob got to the table,as she sat down,he pulled the other chair facing her and sat comfortably.
'Good afternoon Jacob' She smiled beautifully exposing white set of teeths,her lipstick glistered red.
'Goodafternoon Katherine' he said smiling,he had made up his mind to be very polite and sharp with her,but here he was smiling stupidly.
Katherine beckoned to a waiter,who took their orders and left.As she spoke with the waiter,he stared,all he could see was a tofee-toned body draped in an oversized fringe shawl.The soft iridescent material in shimmering bronze tones slipped off her shoulder revealing more bare skin and the lush swell of her bosoms.
A hot ball of healthy lust rolled through Jacob,few men would probably be immune to such an obvious temptation.
She smiled warmly to the waiter,he soon returned with a bottle of white wine,their mushroom,vegetable salad and apppetizer.She waved him off.
They ate their meal quietly,they were almost through with meal when Jacob spoke.Katherine sure had plans he knew.
'Hmm,hmmm' he cleared his throat.
'Katherine,you wanted to see me!' he asked placing his fork down.
'Foodco serves good meal,this is tasty' she said pointing at her chicken 'Thats why i brought you here.
Jacob knew she was avoiding his question. 'Kat,i do not have all day,why did you ask to see me?' he said.
Katherine continued chewing the food in her mouth,when she was done,she answered.
'Jay dear,lets enjoy this sumptous meal,we'll talk after that.' she said,using her fork to pick the salad.
'Well,am done eating', he eyed her pushing his plates aside.
'Jay,calm down,actually,i just came into the country last week,i was holidaying in Las Vegas,you know all work and no play makes Kat a dull girl' she smiled into his face,caressing the shawl on her shoulders revealing the pink swell on her bosom,Jacob swallowed and drank his wine hurriedly to calm his jaunting nerves.He wanted to get up and leave.
Just then two ladies walked in from the side door,he didn't see their face,but their behind spoke volume,heads turned,he glanced around and saw the rapt attention of several men doing the same thing,STARE
The two ladies walked to the other end of the restaurant and......
Janet and Lucy sat at the far end of the expensive restaurant,the ladies knew they were causing some sort of commotion right now,eyes were staring at the gorgeous ladies sitting alone.
They debated on what to eat,Lucy almost tore the menu card in her haste,the waiter soon returned with their lunch,served neatly on their plates,Janet had coleslaw,fruit salad with crunched chicken,while Lucy was eating her Jollof rice with chicken and fruit dressing eagerly.
Lucy ordered for two bottles of expensive red wine,Janet had complained,saying a bottle was enough and that they were not drunkards,but Lucy insisted.
The ladies chatted on and on about various issues ranging from men to cars,food,love and everything Lucy could think of,the girl could talk o,she always had something to say and never ran out of words.
Janet looked around the restaurant,she was careful not to stare,her eyes strolled to the other corner of the eatery,she saw someone who looked like Jacob,because she thought it couldn't be Jacob,he had a meeting to attend to ofcourse,but her mind told her it was him sitting across a cream skinned beautiful lady,they both looked relaxed and were chatting happily like long lost couple,she could see that the lady was flirting with him openly.
She held her breath,shut her eyes,opened them again,the couple were still there,it was not an apparition,she blinked,but it was true,it was Jacob.And he looked so comfortable with his lunch partner.
Her stomach rumbled,her toes curled beneath her feet,she felt sick inside.
Lucy noticed that her demeanor had changed,Janet suddenly looked cold.
'Jane,whats wrong' she asked anxiously.
'I'm fine' she replied curtly.
'You haven't said a word in five minutes.'
'Lucy am fine' she managed a smile.
'You're fine and you're picking at your meal bah!'
'Hey,girlfriend,mo wa okay,am fine'
'If you are fine,then eat,or do you want to order for something else,the bill is on me and am not complaining o' she laughed.
Janet picked her fork and started picking her salad gingerly,She didn't want Lucy to know about it,She couldn't confide in her yet,she didn't trust her that much jare.But how could Jacob do this to her.
..............................

.............................
Jacob was enjoying Kat's prescence.
'Jay,you've been boring yourself with work,i see' Kat said sipping her white wine.
'You see nothing at all,am enjoying my life'
'I pity the poor girl you're dating'
'I don't like that Katherine'
'Stop calling me Katherine,i prefer Kat' she mused.
'Why?' he asked.
'I like it that way,the way you say it makes my stomach turn.' Kat smiled warmly into his eyes.
'kat,i need to go now' He said quietly.
'Jay,can we do this again?' Katherine asked
'Kate,we can't and you know it' he tried not to sound hard on her.
'Jay,a lunch or another dinner will not hurt your work,stop avoiding me Mister!'
'I'll let you know when i can then'
he said standing up.
'Oh thank you Jay darling'.She smiled happily.
He knew he shouldn't have agreed so sheepishly,seeing her again could be trouble,or fun,something said oddly in his mind.
.......................
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
.......................
Lucy tried to cheer her up,
'Tell me about that your bobo jo'
'My bobo?' it sounded strange to her.Jacob could not be her bobo,yet,treat her this way.
'I mean Jay,that guy that keeps every lady on their feet whenever he talks' Lucy supplied,raising her glass to drink.
'C'mon he's fine'
'Just fine? Whats rocking between you two,the bobo likes you now,its very obvious' Janet eyed her.
'Lucy,abeg mind your business for here o'
'And you Jane happen to be my business'
'Your head is hot from drinking,i guess'
'Okay,finish your meal,and lets catch a movie'
'Catch what?No,am not seeing any movie,am going home to rest' she countered.
'Last i remembered,i wasn't seeking your opinion,its an order,so finish your drink ma'am Jane' she pushed her plates. 'Besides you've done nothing to make you tired,lazy woman' she laughed loudly,causing eyes to look their way.
'You are a trouble bag and you know it'.
'Sha,do fast jare' Lucy said.
'Wait o,you have to change this your outfit to something simpler o,or doyou have new motives for this movie thing again.
'Maybe,i do have motives,na you know,my feet is hurting me jare.'
'I didn't ask you to wear that o,you can see am comfortable in mine' Janet laughed at her and finished her drink too.
Lucy signalled to the waiter who brought their bill,telling him to keep the change.Naija babe for real.
Janet walked behind Lucy,she searched for Jacob with her eyes,but he had gone,she was sure he hadn't seen her.
So much for meeting with some foreign clients,the lady he just had lunch with was more than that,she thought quietly,Lucy drove and she sat beside her like a dummy,listening to her with her body,while her soul pondered about Jacob Smith.She knew what she was going to do.
Jacob Smith drove home in his Bentley Rapier 2012,playing a cool music and humming quietly,the car had been a dream toy for him,but now having a Rolls Royce was on his mind,he was only taking his time.
He knew what was expected of him as the number three buisness man in Nigeria,a tycoon like him had to be careful of what to wear,places to eat and ladies to be seen with,and he was trying his best to remain good.
Lunch with Katherine was cool,and he enjoyed his meal,but Katherine could be dangerous,a lady with class,money,power and influence and who knows how to make use of them is no plaything.
His mother had been dissappointed with the break of the relationship,it wasn't so easy for him too,but he had to move on,agreeing to have lunch or dinner with her again sounded silly to him,but he was a man of his words.
He arrived home late in the afternoon,made some calls,and retired to his private library,he called Jane's mobile,the phone rang but it was not picked,he dialled their home telephone,the same thing,he settled on the chair making himself comfortable and selected some books to read.
He had been consumed with it,as reading was a passion for him,the brass knocker sounded,he looked up from his book,it was Ruth.
'What do you want' he asked flipping the book to another page.
'Dinner is ready sir'
'I'll eat here,you can bring my food'
'Your food is on the table sir,madam and Aunty Jackie are waiting for you', she replied
'Did you hear me at all' Jacob said,closing the book.
'Yes sir,i heard you'
'Then leave'.
Ruth left the library,Jacobs eye went to the clock hung on the wall,it was thirty minutes past seven,he was so engrossed in the book,that he didn't notice the time.
Leaning on the chair,he stretched his leg out,Jackie came in.
'Hello kid brother' She drawled
'Hello Jackie'
'I am fine and how was your day' she asked,looking all over him.
'Cool as usual'
'Dinner is ready and we're waiting for you' Jackie said
'I am having mine here'
'Here? Why?'
'I just want to be alone'
'Are sure you are alright?' she asked again.
'Eagle eyes am fine,i just want to eat here,by the way i like your hairstyle,its new and it looks good on you' Jacob said,touching her face.
Jackie kissed his cheeks, 'Thanks brother,i'm glad you like it'.
Ruth came in bringing Jacob's food on a big tray,Jacob opened each covered bowl,assessing its content,
'Whats in the jug?'
'Orange juice sir'
'Freshly made?'
'Yes sir'
'Its okay,you can leave,bring Jackie's food here' he said,asking her with his eyes.
She nodded.
'Mummy is not going to like that' she said,drawing out a chair to sit by him.
'She doesn't have to like everything okay?'
'Jacob you are taking this far,and i do not want any trouble between you too.You know daddy would not like it too' she said,setting her tray on the table.
Jacob ate with Jackie chatting all through.
'I guess you have a date tomorrow' he asked.
'Yes,i have a date with Danjuma' she said picking some plaintain.
'Danjuma? The same Senator Danjuma?'
'No,Danjuma Khalid is the Senator's first child,he is a Barrister'
'Am sure mummy introduced you to him right?'
'Yes, she did,and there's nothing wrong with that.'
'Why does she like to matchmake self,she'll be so happy you're going out with him unlike me' he picked a napkin and cleaned his mouth.
'I don't know much about this girl of yours,but i hope you're making a good choice dear'
'Thats what i expected from mummy,but she wouldn't give Jane a chance,thanks for your love' he sipped his juice.
'You're welcome anytime,am through,let me call Rose so that she can clear this place,you don't want rat eating your books.' She pressed a bell by the table,and Ruth came in.
'Clear this table' Jackie said standing up.
'Yes ma'
'Jackie i'll be in my room,i want to use the shower' he said leaving the library. 'Clean this room too,and close the door before leaving.'
