Not My Crime - Episode 6
Michael entered his sitting room, surprised to see Tricia waiting for him.
The maid had informed him that a lady was here to see him.
His thoughts never went to Tricia.
She was meant to be in Lagos, filming a commercial.
What now? "Looks like you're not happy to see me hmm?"
She asked and he smiled, sitting on a sofa adjacent to hers.
"I'm just surprised. You were meant to be in Lagos."
Tricia scoffed.
What was she to say? The part has been taken from her.
They wanted Ella on it but the stupid girl was still thinking about it.
Who thinks of anything this days?
"I postponed. I don't want to be on any set now till your birthday party is done and dusted."
"Now you're sounding like my girlfriend Tricia."
Michael said raising his brows
"Not when I know you like Ella. It was that obvious Mike."
She stood up and walked to the bar. "What plans do you have for your party?"
"Nothing much. I'll just host you guys somewhere in town."
"And after that?"
"Nothing. We all go home and think of our jobs."
"Alright then

. I'll get you a surprise package then. For now, I'm spending the night."
They stared at each other for a while before Tricia began to pour vodka into her glass.
**********
Kaima stirred on the bed.
Another dream.
She sat up and left the room for the kitchen where she poured herself a glass of water before sitting on the deep freezer.
Why will she be dreaming of him? Of all the men in the world, why will she be dreaming of Frank? Not just any dream but they were being intimate, all loved up and making love like they were a couple.
She wiped the bead of sweat from her forehead and relaxed on the wall.
She just can't let it be a fantasy only.
Even if it's just once, she needed to know if Frank was what he felt like in her dreams.
It would hurt her friend. But who will tell her? Come morning, she was booking the available flight to Lagos.
********
Mike heaved a sigh and fell beside her.
It was the third time within a space of three hours.
Tricia was a tigress in bed and that was one of the reasons he liked having her.
But tonight, his attention was not here.
The drugs in his system was what was keeping him hard and it was only the thought of the woman of his dreams that brought him to climax.
Quite sad he couldn't have her.
He prayed silently that she would attend his party, at least, let him profess his love to her in the presence of everybody, maybe that will soften her mind if she sees that he's sincere.
He sighed and was about to get off the bed when she felt his hand on his chest.
"Where are you going baby?"
Tricia asked, snuggling close
"I want to take a drink."
He replied and got off, not sparing her another glance.
********
Ella entered the kitchen and was surprised to see Kaima sitting on the deep freezer
"What's up K?"
She asked, getting a can of water from the fridge and walking to her friend
"Nothing dear. I couldn't sleep."
"Nightmare?"
Ella asked with concern
"No. I've got to be in Lagos tomorrow morning. A friend will be having her wedding on Saturday and she wants me to come help her do the last rituals. I'm wondering if I should go or not."
Kaima said, rubbing her neck
"Hmmm. You called this person a friend so you should go since she needs you. Is that what's keeping you awake? Oh please. Let's go get some sleep."
Ella said, pulling her down from the freezer
"Ella, you're soooo sweet."
Kaima said "And you're sweeter. Come, let's go."
"Yes. And I'll need your phone for a minute please. There's this song I wanna play."
added
"Anything to give you your beauty sleep. Let's go."
She led the way while Kaima followed with this mischievous grin on her face.
