”Hi babe?”
”Erm… are you lost?” Darren frowns walking towards her, sidesteps her and then climbs the staircase and going to his door, she follows behind him.
”No hi, how have you been, you look great, then hug and kiss me and tell me you miss me?” she touches him tentatively as he backs her.
”Dude, don’t touch me!!” He jumps away, she laughs.

”Ouch! I should feel offended but I am not. I am still a girl, didn’t go through with the surgery, all boobs and Vajajay… just the way you remember it”
”One, I don’t care. Two… still don’t care and three…. still don’t care. It’s your life Natalia, you can do with it as you please. I really have no grudges against you. I was hurt, but all that is gone. I really have wished you happiness in your journey of transformation and… I don’t just get why you are standing at my door step this time of the night with a bag in your hands and calling me babe. I do not see your girlfriend here Natalia. So again, are you lost?”
”I am here because I miss you. She isn’t here because we broke up and… I came back to you”

He opens the door and then enters, he stops her when she made to follow him.
”Whoa, what do you think you are doing?”
”Babe, come on”
”Natalia, really it’s good to see you, and you look great considering but you do not actually really think I would let you in? Dude you just showed up out of the blue”
”Stop with the dude, I am all girl!” She drops her bag. She was wearing a dress with a rope tied at the edge. In one quick move she unties it and opens it up baring all.
”Jesus Natalia are crazy!!!!You are not even wearing any underwear” He exclaims.
”Who does that these days. See, no 12 or 18 inches d--k with large balls dangling between my thighs and my p---y is all neatly trimmed and my boobs is still perky, like I said, just the way you like it. I miss you!”
”Cover yourself Natalia!” he turns away.
”I miss you!”she pouts and flutters her lashes.

”Sorry Natalia, that ship sailed a long time ago”

”So, you are going to let me stand out here, this late? Alone. Naked?”
”Don’t do that Natalia”
”Don’t do what? I miss you” She pouts, smiling at him ”I know you miss me, come on babe, I can do some pretty crazy things to make you forgive me” she smiles biting her lips.

He squints his eyes.

She smiles coming closer to him ”I know you wouldn’t shut the door to my face”
He opens the door wide.
She smiles closing the distance ”I knew you still love-” She trails off as he stretches his hand to her and then stops her. She frowns. He brings out his wallet, pulls out a few bills, opens her hand and then places them on her flat palm.
”This can get you a decent place for a few nights, food to eat and etc. Good night Natalia, and I hope goodbye. I swear to God, I don’t hate you. We are just done, and I would not want to revisit a past that broke me. Have a good life, I intend to do that too. ” He steps back and then shuts the door.
”D--k!!” she spat and then turns away, she flags a taxi and then enters ”Get me the cheapest motel please” she says. She counts the money ”At least it was better than nothing”.
The taxi disappears into the night.

He found it hard to sleep, but eventually he closes his eyes and then sleeps.
The next morning, he puts Natalia showing up thoughts behind his mind and then gets to work.

”Hey Handsome” Bella, the secretary smiles at him .
”Hey Beautiful, how are you?” He replies walking into his office, she follows him.
”Perfect”
”Got anything for me?”
”Yup, Boss wants you in his office, a meeting by 12 with some affiliates accountants. A Tender also came in from the business development department, he needs you to have a pre-tender meeting to fix a correlation date and find out from the user departments if they can work it, also, you need to work out the modalities for the price quotation with them and how we can profit from these” She hands him some documents.

”Is everyone on ground?”
”Yes”
He flips through the documents ”It’s commercial, not a technical bid?”
”Yes it is.”
”Okay, I will attend to this, get me Richard on the phone, he needs to be here also. Basically I am just going to set my area and make sure other user departments are covered?”
”That’s what he said”

”NO worries then, handled” He smiles closing the file.
”You do it effortlessly anyways”
”It’s my job Bella, we have to.” He seats down and turns on his laptop.
She leans on the table, running her hand over the edge of the laptop”So, about this gig I hear everyone talking about..” She trails off.
He smiles ”Yeah, I thought it was just in house friends but it looks as though the entire city is geared up for this boat cruise”
”Yeah, it would be mad fun. So, who you going with? Because, you know… I am not with someone and you are not with someone so… we both can go. I can be your plus one, I mean not like we are dating or anything but… we can keep each other company so we don’t be the only lonely persons there.”
He keeps smiling ”I have a plus one”
”Oh?” she was taken aback, ”Okay, a guy? You know we are supposed to come with your girlfriend or boyfriend or spouse and stuff, not same sex and not strangers and stuff, I mean if you just asked someone to go with you just because you can cancel, I mean we have known each other for years and well, I can pass for a friend but, closer friend and..”
Now he laughs ”Of course not a guy. A girl, my girl. My girlfriend”

She frowns ”But I thought you guys broke up a while ago or you guys are back together?”
He shakes his head ”Not my Ex Bella. That’s ages ago. My girlfriend! she is different. Cool. beautiful, sexy…” he smiles ”I asked her to date me and she said yes. We going together, it would be fun”
”Oh!” she sounded disappointed, she knew ”Well. congrats!”
”Thanks.”

”In fact I forgot I have a date already, silly me forgetting things. So… guess we would see there?”
”Sure.”

”Boss wants it all closed out before COB today” She points to the files on his desk.
”Most definitely. Thanks Bella!”
”Hmm”
She leaves him, frowning.
