The Last Fling ll

Alice: Hey Sandy, Sandy! oh sorry,
Sandra: Alice what's up?,
Alice: I have been trying to get your attention ever since, you seem to be lost in thought, any problem?.
Sandra: Not at all.
Alice: What is your plan after work today?
Sandra: Nothing serious she said, even as she could hear heart beat so loud she feared others could. Alice: So will you be up for a movie? or you've got plans with the groom?.
Sandra: Huh!, no, I really do not have any plan, but ill pass, thanks Alice, maybe next time.

Larry was in his house thinking of how the day would go, he had come to really be fond of Sandra, what exactly did he want from this girl? he asked himself, he was sure about it...he loved her and he was going to tell her that today, although she had always seem to shy away from deep emotional talk, he was not sure exactly what the issue is, her emotional life seem closed up, is she in a toxic relationship? or going through an emotional pain?, has she been heart broken? but then, she had never mentioned anything about any relationship to him, if she was, she would have verbalized it. He knew the chemistry between them is really strong and no doubt she likes him, what he cant say is, if she is in love with him. as a beautiful girl, with very lovely character he was sure she had loads of guys disturbing her, is that why she always seem distracted, sometimes he would ping her on her bb and it would take hours before she responds, his fear for today was how he was going to try not to touch her, he finds her so attractive, of course she wouldn't want that, he thought, why was he thinking of these things anyway, he was going to tell her how much she means to him and the need for them to take this friendship to another level.......

Jude was planning how the day would go, he had a plan to give Sandra a surprise visit after work and take her out to a lovely restaurant, The restaurant was new in town and situated close to the lagoon, he was sure she was going to love it. he wanted them to be alone and have some time to talk, she had seem a bit distant and always looking lost for quite some time now, he feels the toil of the upcoming wedding was getting to her, he knew it was going to be a hard thing for her to leave her family like that, they are tightly knitted together, but he didn't see how seeing them afterward would be a problem. Anyways, today he was going to assure her that everything was going to be okay.


Usually Sandra closes by 5 pm, but today she decided to leave by 4:30, she decided to walk down the stairs instead of using the elevator, she didn't want to think, but at the same time she found herself thinking, she put her hear piece on as she clicked play on her ipod. Taxi! she yelled, she got in and off she went.

When she got down, from the taxi, she looked to confirm the number of the address, it was right, number 63. she could feel her heart racing, she paused for a while, took a deep breath, removed her engagement ring and proceeded, why is she going there she asked herself, lost in thought, and she replied because he is my friend and I can visit anyone I want, almost as if she and someone were talking. she rang the door bell, waited for a while and did again, she heard Larry's voice saying ill be right there. He opened the door smelling of a very nice after shave, with his skin clear like he just had his bath. He was wearing a white fitted T shirt and khakis, They hugged each other for almost a minute, that kind of hug that made the room silent, yet was screaming out so many other emotions. with the question :how was your day, came other discussion and they went on and on.

As the conversation went on, she could feel the pain in his eyes, even as his eyes was moist by the upcoming tears, he was talking about his childhood and how his father used to mal treat his mother, she felt like she should lift away the pain he was feeling, she reached out to touch him on the shoulder, he reached out back to her and they held each other in a close embrace and in the next two seconds, they were kissing each other so passionately, different thoughts going on in their different minds, kissing getting deep, soon positions were changed and things were getting more heated, soon tops were off and it got even hotter... At this point they were almost naked and he whispered into her ears, should I go on? she said yes, then NO!, then Yes. He stopped the kiss and said he doesn't want to complicate the relationship, that he would rather use protection, she nodded and said ok.

So he dashed out of the house to a nearby shop, but couldn't get any, he called a taxi to take him to the nearest mall, not so far.

Jude got to Sandra's office only to be told that she left early, he tried her number severally, it was switched off, he was scared and hoped nothing was wrong, he didn't want to call anyone at her house, he called Mary her closest friend, she didn't know of her whereabouts either, but Mary told him to check a certain place where they both used to like to go, it was a solitary place where jazz and poetry was played, she liked to go there, it helped her cool off, Jude was on his way, but was held in traffic, which even made the situation more frustrating. Suddenly he heard a sound, it was the door of a cab, it hit and scratched his car, in annoyance he wound down to give the person a piece of his mind. What the hell...Larry!!! what in the world are you doing here?

Larry and Jude had been friends during their university days in los Angelis in the U S, Larry jumped into the car and they began to talk, there was a lot he wanted to say to Jude he said, but Jude should help him get to the mall where he wanted to get something. when he got into the car, he began explaining to Jude how he thinks he is in love with a certain girl, who is in his house right now, but he isn't sure of how things are going as a matter of fact the evening had been a little bit steamy and that he had jumped out before the sex started to get a condom, but he wanted more than sex with the girl.....

Sandra thought Larry wanted to get the condom maybe in the next room or somewhere in the house, but he had taken longer than usual, so she realized he had gone out to get one, she switched on the T V and surfing through when she saw a programmed titled SKOOL OF MARRIAGE, and someone saying something like:'' Whatever you do before your marriage is the foundation you build your union upon''. All the turmoil she had been feeling rose to the surface, she started asking herself: what am I doing here? why am I doing this? she realized she had gone too far and she just imagined how betrayed Jude would feel if he ever got a  wind of this, how could she be so stupid, what else did she want, she didn't know how things had spiral out of control, she started sobbing profusely, she felt so ashamed and sad, the fact that she would have had sex if there was a condom scared her beyond reasoning, she never thought she was capable of such actions, she put on her clothes and wore back her shoe, with tears streaming down her face. should she go and then call him afterwards or wait to explain to Larry that she didn't want all this and that she was engaged to someone. she decided she was going to..........

Jude was enthralled by the present story of his long time friend and that helped distract him a bit from his own predicament, he had driven Larry back to his apartment, packed outside as they continued their conversation, Jude told him to take it slow and tell the girl what he really wanted and that they can do without the sex, he told him of how the girl he would be marrying in the next five month was such a blessing, they had had sex once, but never again after they asked for forgiveness, Larry thanked him, they exchanged numbers and Jude starts the car to move. He had moved just a little bit forward when Larry flagged him down, he reversed and Larry said, you know what, I would like you to meet this girl, she is such a gem, okay no problem Jude said as he came down from the car.

    Larry went in before Jude, just to make sure Sandra was decent, he found her already dressed and crying like a little girl, as he bent down to look at her face and ask what the problem was, Jude walked in and said is all okay, Sandra and Larry looked up and in a minute Sandra was frozen,
Jude: Sandra!!! where have you been? sorry what is wrong?
Larry: this is the lady I ve been....you know her?

Sandra just stayed there crying and whispering, oh! what have I done to myself?
Jude: Larry is this the lady you were talking to me about?
Larry: Yes, you know her?
Jude: yes, this is my fiancé

Jude couldn't help the tears that began to flow down his cheeks, Sandra why? why did you do this? and he stormed out of the house and drove off

 Larry: is that true? is he your fiancĂ©?
Sandra nodded yes as she kept on crying, she picked up her bag, looked at confused Larry, with tears in her eyes, said am sorry and left.......
