Chapter 31

MY BOSS AND I
*He is cold but I'm humorous*

I took my phone and was busy talking to DMJ for hours.

Clients came in and out of dad's office and he kept smiling as he talked to them but his leg kept shaking.

He looked nervous but I thought it was because of DMJ.

Infront of where I sat, there was a tv with cctv footage display.

I was checking it as I kept talking to DMJ when mom came in smiling and hugged my dad.

Jessie was left at home with our late nanny.

Mom and dad talked happily for a while and then they came to me and kissed my forehead.

"Wait here, we will be right back. We are meeting the prime minister outside we will be right back" said Dad and I nodded as i got back on phone.

My father had loaded my phone with enough airtime for a month.

I watched on cctv as mom and dad got in the elevator and I switched on to the inside of it.

Dad was romantic and kissed mom in the elevator.

I told DMJ about it and he laughed so hard.

But something distracted their kiss. There was rumbling all over the building.

I even shook from where I was.

Mom and dad got trapped in the elevator.

I watched as they were trying to unlock the elevator and call for help but it was in vain.

I don't know how I dropped the phone and ran off out of the office.

I rushed to the elevator but many people were there already.

I tried to push through but I was pulled back by my father's agent, Randolf.

"We have to go ma'am" he said and carried me on his shoulder.

I kept yelling for him to let me go, that I wanted to see mom and dad but he dint let go.

As we raced down the staircase, there was a loud bang and the building shook.

There was cracks all over the walls and people started rushing outside.

Randolf was still moving and we were almost the first floor when we heard a bomb blast which threw both of us down and I saw a sharp metal hit into Randolf's leg and I lost consciousness.

When I came to, I found myself locked up in my room along with Jessie.

I looked for my father's laptop and tried to text DMJ but he dint reply.

I texted more than 100 times but I never got a reply.

"What did you do to the laptop? Did you ever check it again?" I ask Mian in tears

"No. Where could I find the strength to go through it again? I switched it off and put it away forever. My JCD was gone! My uncle Clegg too! I couldn't even attend her burial. People are so heartless that they buried him on that same day. So quickly such that when I came, I found their graves. I could not even see JCD's face. Even her grave was just written J. Maria Clegg. I could not even know the meaning of J. Was it jackline or Judy? I don't know. I've tried severally to get rid of her in my mind and in my heart but I just can't. That's why I always keep myself occupied with work and work always. Just to try not to think about her. Worst of it all, your voice Jacie, is similar to hers. The way she used to describe herself to me, you are all that. Even your stubborn nature Is just like her. That's why I want to keep you around me all the time. You remind me of her alot" he says and tears down.

Jacie can't help it anymore.

Jacie can't stay silent anymore.

Jacie can't help herself anymore.

Tears are falling down her cheeks and wetting her chest.

She places her hands on Mian's face and he turns to face her.

She quickly moves in and kisses him passionately on his lips.

Damian is confused whether to reciprocate or not.

He is not sure whether this is right or wrong but he eventually gives in to the sweet lips.

He deepens the kiss and explores her mouth with his tongue.

He kisses her lower lip slowly and gently as she does the same on his upper lip as tears fall down their cheeks.

It's a feeling unexplainable to both of them.
