My Imagination

Chapter forty
Jayde
I couldn't get up for some minutes. I mean I didn't expect him to kiss me. I was just trying to tease him.
What am I even saying? I provoked him as a wife. I'm even glad he didn't go further with me.
But why do I suddenly wish he had. Gosh! It's so heated.
But what should I do about this situation? How do I go back home? How do I convince him I'm not Hattie?
Gosh, I'm so tired and frustrated.
Gosh! I don't even know what to do. I'm so confused right now.
But Henry was right. He needs to find Hattie so he will be able to go on with his casual works.
Also, he said I could go back if I wanted to.
I think I will just stay for a few days here. I will let everyone know that Hattie is alright. Then I will be back here.
I should call my mom and tell her I won't be back home. But well, I can call her by night.
I should call Jayden and let him inform Ruth that I won't be coming to work for a while now.
I dial Jayden's number immediately, "Hello Jayden."
"Hi Jayde," he says happily.
I search around me quickly if there was someone behind me. No one!
" Ok, I won't be coming to work for a while.'
" Is something wrong?"
"No, I just decided to take your advice. Henry has seen me and I've followed him home. I'm in his house right now. And I think I will be there for a while."
" Oh alright, take care of yourself," he sighs, " it's just that everyone will miss you."
" I will miss you too. Well, I will come to visit. How about that?"
" Yup! That's a great idea. Keep to your promise!" He says and I hang up.
I will call my mom later in the evening.
" Who was that?" Henry says suddenly and I jerk back, startled.
"Jeez! You scared me," I drop my phone, "That was my friend."
" Come, let me take you to your room."
I raise brows at him, " My room?"
" Or will you like to stay with me in my room?"
That wouldn't be bad. I will love to wake up in the middle of the night and cuddle him. I will like to kiss his chest, hug him so tight. Or kiss him over and over again.
I wonder why I'm having such romantic thoughts.
"No, let's go to my room," I say.
He scoffs and starts walking away. I giggle and walk after him.
I don't know why I'm so happy I'm back in this house. I'm supposed to be agitated.
Gosh, I've missed Henry so much.
We walk up the stairs and Henry moves to the door before his room. He opens the door and walks in. I tag behind like a puppy.
I look inside at the elegance and the creativity in the room. To be candid, this room smells rich.
And I love it!
"Do you like it?"
I look at him, "Are you going to change the decorations for me if I don't?"
He shrugs slightly, "I might."
I smirk at him. Why was he now asking me questions when he knew.
He walks to the wardrobe, "Your clothes are here."
Seriously? I walk to him and open the wardrobe. I gasp, surprised and amazed, 'Wow, thanks."
He smiles at me, " You look cute whenever you smile," he pulls at my cheek slightly before walking out of the room.
I feel my cheek and smile wildly.
My phone rings suddenly. I look at the screen and it's my mom.
I walk into the bathroom and press the receiver.
"Hello mom," I whisper, afraid that someone might hear my voice.
" What's this I just saw on the news? Are you the one in Henry's house right now? Are you the one hugging Henry?" She bombards.
I suck inbreathe. How did she know? How did this enter the news?
"You won't answer me?"
"Mom, calm down."
"What? Calm down? I thought you said you quit this? Why are you back there?"
" Mom, there's an issue," I start but she cut me off.
" I don't want to hear anything. I want you back in this house before tomorrow morning," she scream and the line went off.
Who the fuck took the pictures? And how come it's so online. I mean when did the person even take the pictures?
God! What's this? What do I do now? Mom is so angry and she won't even let me explain.
God, what do I do?
The door opens suddenly, a lady walks in, "Madam, you have to come downstairs," she bows and walks out before I could ask her what it's all about.
I take a deep breath and walk out of my room.
I stop suddenly as I stare ahead of me. My heart stopped beating for a while, only for it to start again.
Hattie's father looks up at me with a huge smile on his face. He nods briefly and presses some buttons on his phone.
A message enters my phone. I look at it and it's a one million dollars credit alert!
