Rita’s POV“Have you forgotten about your lover so soon? Oh geez! I shouldn't have taken too long to show myself to you”“What? You are Zane? Zane? No, You can't be Zane” I disagreed blatantly.“I… I am Zane” He repeated.“No!” I screamed. “How do you know Zane? Who mentioned Zane to you? What..how..” I've just received the most shocking news of my life.“Please Rita, calm down.. I can explain, please listen” Charles bursted into tears.“You are Charles, you can't be Zane” I refused to believe him but just eyes was already getting clouded.“I can explain, I'm not trying to decieve you neither did I know that we’ll meet here soon”“Then you should have brought yourself to me or spoken up the very first day we met. You are not Zane! No!” “I did, if you could remember but for some stupid reason, I held back so as to study you and physically know more about you until now, I can't take it anymore Rita” Tears streamed down his face.I moved away from him.“I'll prove to you that I am your
“That stupid idiot! Damn it! I knew he was up to something when he said he knew Rita and Rita would come to him eventually. So this was his plan all along! Arrrrgh!”Finn yelled, his outburst echoed through the room like a thunderclap, his frustration palpable in every syllable. He paced back and forth, his hands balled into fists as he fought to contain his anger.“He’s the creator of Kikachat, he has seen our chats and messages. How dare he intrude into our privacy. That’s so unprofessional! I have to report him, challenge him but… I can't do that yet” His teeth clenched so tightly.“Alex is here” Madison announced his presence and in the next minute, Alexander walked in.“Long time no see my brother, I was told Rita's been living with you, so I gave you guys some privacy and to not show up” Alex said.“Suit yourself” I answered sheepishly.“Woah! See who is already missing his girl” “Yeah, but..” Finn sighed, he was confused.“I'm in a mess Alex. Can I disclose a secret with you?”
Rita's POVI just arrived at the company and I have just spoken with Finn over the phone, we agreed to meet in his office and sort things out if possible.On my way to the passage that led to his office, I met Charles who was just coming out of the elevator, heading towards the office too.He sighted me before I could turned to leave or hide from him.“Rita” He called my name and moved closer to me.“Good morning Charles” I avoided eye contact with him.“Charles is my second name but it's fine if you no longer wanna call me by the name Zane”I didn't say anything.“I texted you last night but you wouldn't reply” He said.“I… I don't know, I was so tired last night I guess” I responded, obviously not interested in having this conversation with him. I placed a palm on my forehead like I was having an headache just to give a hint that he stresses me out.“Are..are you okay?” He empathetically asked softly, he placed his hands on my shoulders and I took his hands off me.“I'm fine.

RITAIs it just me or it’s generally difficult to find whom to spend the rest of your life with?To start with, ‘I do not fall in love easily and now, love wouldn’t just go my way because I’ld never open my heart to anyone again’ funny how this statement is coming from a lady in her late twenties yet still single.Sadly, last summer I was in a relationship, drunk in love with Jared but this year, there’s no Jared, no new partner, and no feelings for anyone. I’m all by myself because Jared didn’t reach out to me anymore neither have I even met him in real life.There was this dating app, ‘LOVE-STATION’ it crashed few months ago and destroyed a lot of relationships including mine.I met Jared on Love station, chatted and dated till it was high time we met physically and take things to the next level. Perhaps, I would have been a Mrs by now but unexpectedly, the app malfunctioned and crashed abruptly, and this erased every single contact since it was all connected.I lost all contacts wit
RitaI didn't know when I fell asleep on the couch the previous night.As I slowly opened my sleepy eyes and my glance stopped exactly at the mini wall clock." Christ! " I exclaimed and jumped up immediately.10:25 am?How can it be 10:25am already? when I'm supposed to be at work by 9am unfailingly."Oh My God!"I stood up, confused on what to do first..Was it to run into the bathroom or to quickly make my breakfast?I rushed into the bathroom, pulled off my undies and littered them on the floor.Life of a lonely spinster, I'm careless with my undies and panties.No guy will visit is a key assurance.*Immediately I ran out of the bathroom hurriedly, I wore a simple outfit -a baggy blouse and a somewhat loose knee short after all, my job does not require an elegant or gorgeous dressing and it’s not like I’m having a date with a boyfriend.*I ran into Beauty and Cosmestic company. It’s a big company which deals with import and exchange of facial care products to younger industries.
Rita's POVThere’s never ever a free day. There were many clients to attend to, and as usual it was tiring especially because Evelyn is not here to assit me.“Oh My God!!!” I stretched my hands wearily after attending to the last client.Now they have stopped trooping in and I really needed a short break before another person comes in.I sighed heavily and rested my head on the desk.Earlier, I just did a full glam make over for a young girl who must be barely twenty and she was about to have a court wedding photoshoot.Why is everyone getting married every day?Ugh!I cringed as I thought of my age which further made me to think of menopause. Gosh! I'm not getting there anytime soon. I shook my head like I could shake off the ugly thoughts too.I checked the digital clock on my phone home screen, it was high time to have lunch yet Evelyn and her boyfriend aren’t back. I shook my head, looking lightly miffed because we three are meant to go to the cafeteria together.I clicked on the Ki
Rita's POVEvelyn uttered real sense and the serious discussion we had really hit me hard on the exact right spot. Plus, seeing her and Adams flirting, playing like the two love-birds which they newly were; pecking and kissing publicly, intertwined their fingers and interlocked arms, called themselves romantic names has made me wanna have a man to do all these things with. I need to experience what it feels like.I walked alone to the bus stop, sat and waited for the bus to arrive.It could have been Evelyn and I, going home together but nope, she chose relationship over friendship."Could you please move to the next seat?" A muscular voice said; " Please" He added and I adjusted to the other end before looking up to see who it was."You.." I pointed, trying to recall where I must have methim."The lady from Beauty and Cosmetic" The guy recongized me right away."Oh yeah you!!" It was the guy who came to the saloon and didn't know his way to the male section. That weird guy."You must
Rita's POVPractically, I’m literally starting a new life today. And to start with, i'm gonna stop doing some things and start some new things.Geez! I can’t believe that I’m kinda eager to find a partner, all of a sudden. Let's see how it goes, how long it would last and if it'll make me happy atlas!I woke up very early that day, quickly engaged in some simple domestic chores which didn't take much of my time because I have the whole small house to myself.I searched for and jostled out a really nice outfit out of my wardrobe, with a matching pretty footwear. I'm fashion conscious but these days I've been less concerned about whatever I put on simply because I have this sort of mentality that there's no guy out there to wear a dress to kill for. But today I say Bye- bye to that mindset.I blsuhed secretly when I realised that my mode of dressing has captivated men's attention.Gosh! When and why did I start thinking about guys? Yet I won’t give them a minute to talk to me. Ain’t bei
