"Lena..."

I could hear the plead laced in Shawn's voice as he called my name while I walked down the stairs as quickly as I could, holding back the tears that stupidly wants to flow so bad.

"Get the hell out of my home, I thought I made it clear for you to leave this morning!..." I guess Shawn yelled at the girl from a moment ago.

Wait....

Wait...

This morning?

Does that mean the girl have been staying with him?

And she wore matching lingeries..

Who wears that to bed?

She also came out of his room, because thats the room we were about to go in to.

That means thats his room, right?

Then, I heard footsteps stomping down the stairs and heading to my direction as Shawn yelled again.

"You better get the fuck out of my house by the time I get back or I swear to God, you wouldn't like what happens to you next!"

Not knowing where to go because, I dont even know the damn entrance or exit to this mansion of a home, I just walked like a scalar quantity, having magnitude but no direction.

Looking around the hallway, I found myself in, I felt so low.

Thoughts of who that girl might have been or is to Shawn ravaged my mind.

How I must have looked like a slut and how humiliating it felt to be seen half naked

Half freaking naked!!!

I just slouched down and cried.

I have no idea why I'm crying I just know I'm feeling hurt

"Are you okay? " a voice I recognised as Shawn's asked

That was a really dumb question, Shawn... Like seriously?

"Do I look okay?" I asked, wiping my tears off as I stood up.

"I'm sorry, I had no idea,Onome was still at home"Shawn said

"Take me home" I sighed

"Babe.. Please its not what you think"

"just take me home!" I yelled and then tears rolled down my cheek.

"Fuck it" he muttered,

And hugged me as he said

"Pls don't cry... It breaks my heart"

Why does the little things like this get to me?

Why does he act like he Cares?

Nobody cares about me...

Nobody loves me...

Why does it feel so different with him.

I sobbed and said

"Why do you act like you care so much"

"Because, I do."

"Nobody who isnt family or Betty does"

"I guess i'm an exception,then"

" I'm messed up Shawn, am so messed up. I can't keep doing this with you"

"Keep doing what?" He asked hesitantly.

"I don't know... Playing games?"

"But, I ain't playing games with you... Pls stop saying this"

breaking out of the hug, I sniffed and sucked my lips.

"Shawn...pls take me home"

"God! Is it about Onome? I swear I have got nothing to do with her! look what that bitch has caused" he said the last part more to himself than to me.

"Just take me home, Shawn... I would rather deal with the stress of paparazzi to staying with you"

"Stop saying that!" Shawn pleaded with a yell?

"I swear, Onome means nothing to me."he added.

"Who is she then?"I asked licking and biting my lips as an attempt to not cry..

"long story short, i found her almost getting raped, saved her, and took her to the hospital, found out she had no place to stay, decided to hire her as a temporary maid till I find out what next to do with her. Discovered she isn't in the university yet, so I used my connection to get her as a part time student in Unilag while she gets a side job to suppprt her self, the school fees are on me though.

I Came home Yesterday night and found her at home, asked what was wrong but then, she tried to make a move on me, I turned her down and yelled at her to leave the following morning and to be honest, I wasnt expecting to meet her still at home tonight." He explained.

"That makes sense, why did she even try making a move on you?" I asked

"She said, she thought thats what I wanted since I was so nice to her and she had done nothing for me, she wanted to repay me with sex" he sighed

"and I guess, she planned to seduce you this night with those matching lingeries" I sighed, a bit relieved.

"I'm sorry baby... you look like a mess"

"I have had a whole lot of different emotions in just a day, gosh I felt so embarrassed." I said, truthfully.

"You still leaving?" He asked.

"No"

"Thank heavens" he smiled And argh! He looked sexy.

Why does he have to be so damn fine

"Shawn? Where is Onome, now?"

"Probably left"

Just then, my phone rang. Its Amanda, my sister.

I answered the call only to be struck by a high pitched shriek!!!

Dear Lord!

Hey! Hope you guys are all staying safe from Covid-19😱

Idris Elba was tested positive and am just gonna pray for him, I would have cried but it solves nothing.

I recently watched one of his 2017 movies titled "The Dark Tower" he played the role of 'GunSlayer' and I fell for him.. So dark skinned and handsome, sadly he is married. So, I can't have him.

Who knows Idris Elba?

Let's all pray for this Coronavirus pandemic to end.
