AFTER WORK**
Prince was on the road with Sunny. Though, he was driving with full concentration, his other mind was elsewhere.
He sighed softly and faced Sunny whose head was on the glas-s. She seemed to be in thoughts too.
“Sunny-ah” He called.
Sunny slowly looked at him.
“Don’t think too much about what Mr Cha said today, okay?”
Sunny for-ced a smile and nodded.
“We are almost at your place” He cooed. written by sommy pearl f.
Sunny blinked her eyes and tou-ched his hand which was still on the steering wheel.
“What’s it, Sunny?” He asked, worriedly.
“I love you, Prince” She muttered and Prince hit his Br@kes, abruptly.
That was the first time, she was saying that.
Prince looked at her, with calm eyes. He finally smiled and pulled her to himself. He hu-gged her and sniffed.
“I love you more, Sunny”
She wrapped her arms around him and hu-gged him ti-ghtly.
They later broke it and stared at each other eyes.
“Sunny? Do you have to go home now?” Prince asked.
“Why?” She asked back.
Prince exhaled de-eply.
“Why not stay with me for a night and a day”
Sunny eyes grew wide.
“What??”
“You are my girlfriend so you don’t have to rebuff my advances”
Sunny sighed.
“Its not about that. What would people say if we don’t come to work tomorrow. They might suspect”
“Let them suspect. I really want to tell them that I’m dating you. You even said you loved me”
“Prince. I’m just nervous and worried about people gossip”
“And who cares about that? I don’t care about what people say as far as I have you close to me. Okay,,, how about I make tomorrow a holiday at work” He winked. written by sommy pearl f.
“No…” Sunny sighed.
“But I want you to stay with me” He said.
“Okay then. Let’s stay together and alone for 1 night and 1 day” She said.
“Yes! Finally!!” Prince gushed.
“We don’t have to inform the others about our absence tomorrow, right?” He asked.
“Yes. But after tomorrow, let’s make our relationship official”
“Damn! Are you serious??”
“Yes” She chuckled.
Prince smiled and ki-ssed her all over her face that she giggled, loudly.
“Thank you! Thank you!!” He kept saying.
“Gosh. I really love you, Sunny” He whispered and hu-gged her again.
***
“Welcome to my humble abode” Prince winked.
“Wow” Sunny smiled looking around.
“Its so gallant and beautiful” She added.
“You can say that again” He chuckled.
“Seat. I’ll go bring something for us to drink” He said. written by sommy pearl f.
She nodded and sat down. Prince left later on and Sunny texted Maya.
*I won’t be coming tonight?*
*Why?* Maya asked.
*I want to stay with Prince tonight* She replied and kept her phone away.
****
“What did she say?” Clement asked, frowning.
Maya sighed, loudly.
“She said she ain’t coming tonight. Now, you can leave!”
Clement scoffed and yanked the phone off her.
“Give me that!” She warned.
Clement growled.
“She’s with Prince? You haven’t told her yet?”
“What??” She asked and took her phone from him.
“That…I’m Prince’s friend?”
“And why must I yell her?? What difference will it make?? She’s in love. Just let her be!” She snarled and walked in.
“Oh…We’ll see about that” He smiled, wickedly.
****
It was a movies night for Prince and Sunny. They just finished taking their shower and dinner. Afterwards, they went to the sitting room where they fed their eyes with the latest movies.
Sunny was lying down on the sofa and her head rested on Prince’s thi-ghs.
Prince sat down and stro-ked her hair fondly as their eyes glued on the TV.
When it clocked 2am, Prince took her to his bedroom.
“So,,, where will you sleep?” Sunny asked.
“Huh? We can sleep together, right?” He arched his brows.
She bit her li-p and shook her head.
“Not now, Prince. Let’s not rush things”
Prince nodded in agreement.
“Okay then. Sleep here. I’ll sleep in the guestroom”
“Okay. Good night” She said and ki-ssed his cheek.
He smiled and whispered a goodnight before leaving.
Soon, they slept off.
THE NEXT MORNING**
Sunny yawned and rose from the bed. She stood up and slowly walked into the sitting room.
“Prince?? Prince??” She called.
“I’m here” came the answer.
“Where?” She looked around.
“The kitchen” He shook his head out briefly. written by sommy pearl f.
Sunny chuckled and ran to him. He was preparing breakfast.
“Smells nice” She smiled.
“Good morning, baby sunshine” He smiled back at her.
“Don’t flatter me” She blus-hed and went behind him.
She back hu-gged him gently as he went on with his work in the kitchen.
He was smiling all throu-gh.
The whole of that day was really a fun one for Sunny and Prince.
They behaved and acted like how every possible couple would.
They brushed their teeth together, ate, washed their hair, played games, ki-ssed each other every where and each time. player with each other, cuddled and watched TV again, etc.
“This is life…” Prince voice trailed off as he found his li-ps getting lost into her mouth again.
THAT NIGHT**
“See you…tomorrow at work” He smiled, waving to her.
Sunny nodded and waved at him again.
“See you too. And don’t forget about our decision,,,, which would happen tomorrow”.
“Sure. The confession” Prince said
“Yeah”
THE NEXT MORNING**
Prince stood in front of the workers. He was on the platform studying the faces around him.
Sunny stood not too far from him while Mr Cha stood really close to him.
“I’ve a confession to make” He said, to the microphone which everyone heard.
Nobody made a noise or a move. They paid rapid attention.
“I’m in love with a woman. She’s the joy of my life. My happiness. The princess in my throne”
There was loud clap-s and murmurings.
“She’s my girlfriend and I love her so much… with all my heart. Now and here, She’s with us and I’m here to declare her to everyone”
Everybody exchanged glances. They were beginning to talk too.
“Sunny Davis…I love you” He whispered, and streched his hand towards her.
Sunny smiled, and wiped the tear off her eye. She slowly went to him and held his hand.
He smiled at her and raised her to the platform.
“She’s my girlfriend, everyone!!” He confessed and there was a thun-derous clap-s and howling.
He gave Mr Cha the microphone and took Sunny closer, giving her a de-ep hot ki-ss in front of everyone.
“Whoaaaa!!!” Everyone exclaimed, joyously. They were quite surprised but still, few jealous ones remained.
THAT NIGHT***
“Gosh. It feels so good letting it out” Sunny smiled, walking with Prince. written by sommy pearl f.
They held each other as they walked. They decided to walk to her place, instead of taking a car.
“Swears” Prince heaved.
They finally got to her place and Prince let go of her hand.
“Ow” She whimpered.
“What’s it?” He asked, quickly.
“My finger” She answered.
“Let me see” He said and held her hand. He saw a small cut on her smallest finger.
“What happened?” He asked.
“It was a work accident. Its little and I’ll be fine” She nodded.
Prince sighed.
“But I’m not fine. Stay here. Lemme go get a plaster or ointment” He said and ran off to the nearest pharmacy.
Sunny smiled watching him leave.
“I see,,,, you’ve met with my friend already” Clement smi-rked, coming into view.
Sunny looked at him, with arching brows.
“Clement?? What are you doing here?” She asked.
“Missed me, darling?” He asked.
“You’re a nut job” She cussed.
“By the way,,,, Don’t tell me you’re dating my best friend, Prince…”
“Pardon?” Sunny asked.
“Prince. Don’t tell me you guys are dating?? That guy is my best friend and his sister is the one whom I fli-rted with. Do you wanna know the worst thing?” Clement whispered.
Sunny gulped. Her eyes were stained with crystal tears already.
“Prince knew and supported my two timing affair” He whispered.
The word broke her heart but she tried to refrain the tears from falling.
“Lair” She muttered.
“Prince knew you ever since. He knew you were my fiancee. The moment we broke up, he asked for your username, stalked you and messaged you. He also said he’s now dating you. All this,,,, was what he uttered, himself!! Prince doesn’t love you. Even if he does now. He didn’t love you from the start”
“So…What are you implying now?” She sniffed.
“Prince is using you. He wants you to grant a favor for him so after you do so, he dumps you like an unwanted waste”
“Favor? I…I remember him asking for a favor. He…really tells you everything” She stuttered.
“Yes. He actually wants you to see his grandma, then pose to be his girlfriend and after the meet up, Its really over”
Sunny’s heart skipped.
“Is that he’s doing all this? He’s trying to win me over for that?”
****
“Bro???” Cas-sy asked, walking forward.
“Where are you coming from?” Prince looked at her.
“I went to a near by restaurant. You?” She asked.
“The pharamacy” He replied.
“Are you sick?” She asked.
“Nope. But my girlfriend is injured. I wanna give her these” He answered.
“Oh…But please,,, can I follow you? I really wanna see her”
“Uh…Sure” Prince nodded.
Cas-sy smiled and followed him.
They finally got to Sunny who was standing. Her face was bitter and tears freely ran down her eyes.
“Sunny. What-
“Don’t…come closer” She stuttered, walking backwards.
“She’s your girlfriend?” Cas-sy muttered.
“Oh my gosh” She added.
“Welcome,,, Prince” Clement chuckled walking from behind Sunny.
“Sunny. What’s happening? What happened to you?” He asked, worriedly.
“Mr Cha was right” She whispered.
“Huh? What are you talking about” He tried ha-rd to smile.
“Happilynever after? Its bullsh!t” She shook her head, whispering.
“What…What are you trying to say?” He asked.
“Let’s break up, Prince Langford”
